Two Queueless JopiinChinamen Laugh at theCut-Off Queue OrderJung Toy and Charley Jung, Who Are Heartily in Favor of New Flan in Flowery Kingdom, Discarded Their ‘Tig Tails Years Ago*iiWu Ting Fang is several years behind two Joplin Chinamen with his order to his countrymen to cut off their queues. They discarded theirs ten years ago, and now the flowery kingdom diplomat is being laughed at by those two particular individuals.The Joplin Chinese without queues are Jung Toy and Charley Jung, who conduct a laundry on West Fifth street. When Toy caught his queue in a revolving piece of machinery there was a mixture of English and Chinese uttered which an expert interpreter would have had difficulty in repeating.Then it was that the two Chinks broke the custom of their ancestors and brought the scissors into play. And ever since it has been the “Melican idea” with them.'‘Queue it catchy in belt,” said Jung, “then cutty off.”In broken English Toy and Jung yesterday declared that the cut-off-the-queue order is proper. They were heartily in accord with the plan, but they made no effort to suppress their pleasure in the knowledge that they had seen the wisdom' of it before some of their more learned countrymen.Toy and Jung are vowed enemies of Fu-yi, the “boy ruler” of China.
