About this time Mr. Cheong was lucky enough to win three prizes in the Waising lottery. Within ten years he won $80,000, $50,000, and about 75 per cent. of $400,000.

The rooms are tastefully and luxuriously furnished, and the extensive grounds, which are splendidly laid out, contain an artificial lake and several excellent specimens of Chinese rockery. Mr. Cheong married Miss Cheong Ja See, and
