So might pretty little Rosie Chin, Portland-born Chinese girl, sing, but ehe does not aJd the rest of the stanza: "Oh, bring back my bonnie to me." She does not utter that last line because it would be an absolute waste of breath-. Her bonnie, one Chin Sick, is on the high seas en route to China, forever barred from America because of his participa tion in tong .wars. Only the presi dent of the United States would be able to restore Chin to her, and in view of Chin's past record, it is highly improbable that the nation's chief executive would dotlmt thing. The end of pretty Rosie's romance came yesterday at 4 o'clock. Stand ing on the Inman-Poulsen lumber dock, she saw the British steamer Bermuda back into the stream, swihg about and turn its prow in the general direction of the orient. On the deck of the Bermuda was Chin, a deportee, with ten others of his countrymen, bound for the shores "whence he came. Rosie's romance dates back to the days when she was the idol of the Nom Kim Lo restaurant, in the North Fourth-street Chinatown, and Chin Sick was the swashbuckling hatchetman of the Hop Sing tong. Chin wooed Rosie, won and married her. Then, in pursuit of his occu pation as killer for his tong, he ran afoul of the law and went to jail on a murder charge. Rosie stood by him in his troubles. A jury refused to convict him and Chin Sick went free. For a few months the life of the couple was happy, but Chin, in becoming involved in a tong murder at The Dalles, was arrested again, indicted again, then freed again. Rosie was his staunch supporter during this trouble. Chin Is Arrested Again. Chin, freed, went to Seattle, used his automatic as a means of robbing- a wealthy countryman, and was again marked by the law. But before the police could lay their hands on him, immigration officials stized Chin and held him as an un desirable. Then came the time for Rosie's final decision. She could have her Chin if she were content to return to China, to live the life of a coolie's wife, to make a hut her home and to exist on a ration of rice. But Rosie, Ameri can born, rebelled, and when the Bermuda pulled out into the stream yesterday Rosie was on the dock weeping for her lost love, yet car ing more for the land of her birth and its flesh pots than she did for her lost mate. But if Rosie were troubled, her troubles were nothing compared to those of Lai Sing and Lai Chew, re turning to a life of slavery in China; a life of toil, starvation and poverty. A year ago the two broth ers mortgaged their bodies to a wealthy relative, borrowed $2500, which they paid to a smuggling - gang, and came into America as Stowaways. Life of Slavery Faced. Last August they were caught on a farm near Woodland, Wash., by Immigration Inspector Bonham and a posse of county authorities. When the pair realized that their capture meant their return to China, they pleaded with the officers to shoot them, declaring that they could never repay the borrowed $2500 and that they would be kept in slavery by the wealthy relative. But the officials refused to commit murder and when the Bermuda pulled out Lai Sing and Lai Chew were on deck, going back to slavery under the rich relative. The other eight were Chinese Bailors, cooks and waiters who Had deserted British vessels in Pacific coast harbor and had obtained em ployment aboard Standard Oil tank ers. They were taken from their ships in Portland harbor and ord ered deported on the grounds that being unadmittable aliens, they had no right to be employed on vessels flying the American flag. The 11 sent out yesterday con stituted the largest deportation party of Chinese to leave Portland in the last 20 years, Mr.. Bonham said. 1 gSL """" '"' 1 -rem ::,":, :wexr i iililw5-Z . vis 'M : Kir n- fym' 3viiH ' Vpper Eleven oriental on the deck of the British at earner Bermuda, under the eye of tinfted States Immi gration Inspector Smith, waiting for the big freighter to pull out into the stream.

He will, be joined there by the other four members of the commission and tho party will sail for Honolulu on Thursday. The commission,' composed of four labor officials and a represen tative of the department of labor, will study labor conditions in the Hawaiian islands, especially with reference to Japanese. Two months will be spent in the work'and wagesv living conditions, education and the loyalty of the orientals to. the United States will receiv.e espe cial attention. As over one-half of the work performed on the islands is done by orientals, the question is considered one of great import ance. The recent strike of Japan ese sugar plantation workers is thought to have brought the queer labor conditions on the islands to the attention of the president. The commission, on concluding its work, will report its findings to President Harding. Mr. Hartwig's selection as a member of the body is considered a compliment to Ore gon labor. Mr. Hartwig has been president of the State Federation of Labor for the1 past six years. He is rated as one oj the most constructive men .who ever headed the labor move ment in any state and his associates point to the new labor temple as an example of his work. Mr. Hartwig's understanding of the Japanese sit uation on the Pacific coast is held to have been one of the factors which prompted President Harding to appoint him a .member of? the commission. (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, Nov. 12. An effort to discredit the story of the Hall Mills murder as told by Mrs. Jane Gibson cropped out tonight. The attack came from Dwight Newell Pfeiffer, counsel for Mrs. Frances Noel Hall, widow of the slain clergyman. Mrs. Hall is de scribed in Mrs. Gibson's story as being at the scene of the murder of the rector and his choir singer, Mrs. Eleanor Mills, on the Phillips farm, near New Brunswick,- N. J.. about 10:30 o'clock on the night of September 14. Attorne Pfeiffer tonight produced an affidavit made by Mrs. Nellie , Russell, one of Mrs. Gibson's neigh bors, tending to prove that Mrs. Gibson cjuld not have been at the scene of the murder at 10:30 o'clock. Mrs. Russell said that Mrs. Gibson Came io in r house a little after 10 o'clock o.i that night, that Mrs. Gibson told her she had recognized Mrs. Rus3cil's dog, which had been stolen; that Mrs. Russell went with Mrs. Gibson to the Gibson farm and was with Mrs. Gibson until arond 11 o'clock. Therefore if Mrs. Rus sell's story stands the acid test, it would have been impossible for Mrs. Gigson to have been an eyewitness to the double murder. even Captaim Erhardt, a leader of a marine brigade, who fled Germany following the failure of the Kapp putsch and since has been reported at Budapest, was here several weeks ago personally, organizing the movement. Other leaders of the Kapp putsch, Herr Aulock and Lichtr shalag, are implicated. Another Kapp follower, Major Pabst, has been located in North Tyrol, Austria. He is said o have ,been the go-between in the GermSn fascisti. Although tha police have found documents indicating the intention of the fascisti to install a dictator over Germany, the identity of the person selected for this position is unknown..

Partially as i a result of the encouragement re ceived by the election results, the league will renew its efforts to make Oregon the driest state in the union, and volunteer prohibition workers in every county will be or ganized within the next three months. Rev. R. E. Close, recent secretary of the Portland Federation of Churches, has joined the league to assist in the organization work. "Viewing the net results from every angle," said Mr, . Herwig. "I do not see how the liquor interests of the country can get much en couragement from the results of the election.

Drys Capture Ohio "In Ohio, where the wet and dry issue was clearly drawn, the drys carried the state by more than 200,600 majority. "In Illinois the Anti-Saloon league and- allied temperance forces waged a strong campaign advising all friends of the cause not to vote upon the wine and beer proposition. It is evident, according to the votes cast, that 200,000 did not vote upon the proposition. "The drys in Illinois refused to admit by voting for the measure that the wine and beer proposal is & proper question to be settled by majority vote. Illinois cannot b6 counted as a wet victofy. .

Of course, it was expected to remain faithful to the booze gang. Edwards' electron to the senate will have the result of keeping the liquor question much alive In congress, which ought to help some. "Now as to congress word from our headquarters in Wasflington states that the .drys will have a fine working majority and that there cannot be any hope whatever of the liquor interests putting over anything. "It surely behooves the temper ance forces of the country to keep up a solid front and keep up the fight." Rev. Mr. Close' at Post. Rev. Mr. Close has entered upon his work as the assistant auperin dent of the Anti-Saloon league of Oregon. Mr. Close will be active in helping to organize every county in the state in an aggressive cam paign for law enforcement.

That's easy to explain. A uniform temperature is automatically maintained, day and night. No fuel is wasted by over-heating. Nor is the fire permitted to die down too low. So there is no un burnned coal uvthe ash. The fuel burns evenly and completely; all the heat is extracted. Fuel is saved and the house is kept comfortably warm by automatic temperature control. Because it's automatic, there's no work or worry. No early rising or basement trips to wake up the fire; the temperature rises automatically in the morning and is lowered automatically at night.

Sensational disclosures of a nation-wide move ment, fostered by the leaders of the Kapp revolution in 1920, for another coup d'etat, were unearthed today following the arrest last night of Lieutenant Rosbach, a leader of a volunteer corps carrying his name, who fought the Poles in Upper Sile sia during the insurrection there and who now is charged with or ganizlng a fasqisti in Berlin. Police say they have obtained definite proofs that the German fascisti which has become visibly active since the success of the Italian or ganization, has become considerably more widespread in Germany. It was first suspected when the police unearthed docuent3 showing secret societies existed throughout Germany and were directed from ,a general headquarters in the North Harz mountains and Pomerania, According to Intelligence officers, Police Take Hand and Wound Man Fatally While He Kicks on Sweetheart's Door. (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.) CHICAGO, Nov. 12. Frank Fischr er, 32, who attempted to. conduct his love affairs with a magazine pistol, was so rtersistent that he is dying in A.lexian Brothers' hospital. For two years he was a boarder in the home of Mrs. Ida N. Bird, aged 50. Fischer' became violently infatuated with her, and his attentions reached the stage where he was ordered from the house. He chased Mrs. Bird through the house, firing four shots at her, and then fled. That afternoon he returned and shot at her four times through a bedroom window. She summoned the police and. two officers concealed themselves in the house. Fischer called her up from various points, taunting her with approaching death and boasting that the police could not protect her. Later he burst in the rear door and started for her bedroom, pistol in hand. The police arose from behind a piano, but dropped back when Fischer fired three shots at them. As he was kick ing down Mrs. Bird's door, one of the officers shot hira twice through the abdomen, thus ending his cave man love affair. , , ... v...u..- wU1 contain full instructions on MtVn n tL ,!
