however, being amended in one particu.

The Yankee GIrI Who. Married a
ChtnRmNu for love.

- Al1NSN
San Francisco Chronicle
Mrs. Chew Coon Poe loves her
husband and says she is happy. She
is the Maine school teacher who
married a Chinaman in San Fran
cisco several months ago. She has
taken a reporter Of the Chronicle
into her confidence and convinced
him that she did not marry for
money, but for that which makes
the merry world 60 round, to-wit,
love. There was a reception several
weeks after the wedding, and all her
husbands relatives were invited to
come with wedding presents. In
China the bride is not visible on
such occasions, but a coolie servant,
dressed Enthusiastically, pours out tea
and distributes CONNECTIONS. The
friends Of Chew Coon Poe assembled
in q restaurant, with gongs and fd-
dies, each bringing to the banquet
a sun Of money ranging from 81 to
$40. When the company were
ready for tea the Caucasian bride
moved suddenly upon the Mongo-
Ian works by emerging from the
obscurity of her chamber, taking
the head of the table, pocketing the
money, and pouring out the tea.
The guests protested against this
innovation upon the customs Of the
Orient, but the bride did not seem
to understand the Chinese language.
She deposited the money in a bank
the next day, and her husband is
unable to convince her that her
conduct is improper.
