MTS CHINESE
i FORM NEW TONG
Yuen’s Death Forces Society
to Start Anew Records
Burned at Grave.
Choe Kwong tone, the organization
which rules the f'hinese of Atlanta, Is
being reorganized today with now of-
ii flclals, new records, a fresh start. F<Jr
old Looking Yuen, secretary for many
years of t'hee Kwong tong, lies in bis
grave in Greenwood, his coffin be
decked with jewels, his body half buried
In coins and mementoes dropped by sad
friends.
The funeral of Looking Yuen was the
most ornate, the most spectacular. At
lanta has ever known, and it has seen
the obsequies of more than a score of
Chinese. Christians and Confucians
joined In paying the last honors to the
aged Oriental, for Loobing Yuen had
long since abandoned the faith of his
fathers for that of his adopted country.
Rev. A. C. Ward, pastor of Oakland
City Baptist church and first friend to
Atlanta Chinese, led the services at the
chapel of Harry G. Poole, in East Hunt
er street, and Lee Long, chaplain of
LI the tong, chanted the rites of the Chi
nese faith.
Band Leads Cortege.
The chapel was filled to overflowing
with Chinese friends and American
men and women drawn by curiosity.
There were no Chinese women pres
s' ent. though there are several In At
lanta. More than a hundred curkuis
men and boys, unable to gain
tance to the chapel, filled the sidewalk
® outside.
A military band led the cortege to
| the cemetery. Hero an iron rail barred
the crowd from the open grave, and
only members of Chee Kwong long, the
S friends officiating and the police were
admitted. Tito body was interred in
the Chinese plot, which already held
the bodies of fourteen others of shat
race.
When the service had been read the
dead secretary's lodge papers were
burned at the head of his grave. The
ceremonies occupied more than four
hours, and all night the tong kept up its
mourning for its dead official.

URGES LAW TO PROTECT
PRESIDENT FROM ABUSE
CHICAGO. June 24. Legislation to
protect the president of the t’nited
Slates from vituperation was urged by
the Rev. Johnson Alters, in a sermon at
Immanuel Baptist church on “Lessons
from the Great convention "
“There should be some legislation
which will protect the dignity and
honor of the presidential office. It is
humiliating to the American people to
have the name and position of their
president slandered. The country needs
a higher standard of statesmanship."
