Hotel Where Flies Awaken the Guests
at the Hour Requested.
1.-THE queerest hotel in the world is in
Guatemala City, Central America" said an
English tourist who is stopping at the
Richelieu. "While there a few weeks ago
L stopped a day at the biggest hosiery, and
met with more surprises than have pre-
viously encountered in my trip around the
world. The house is built only one story
high on account Of the earthquakes. 1t is
constructed III the form OF a hollow square,
and the interior court is made beautiful
with trees and flowers. The exterior pre-
sents the appearance of prison.
After pounding high knoclser on the
outer door you are ushered into scene of
verdant beauty. The hotel was formerly
the private residence OF one Of the richest
families of Central America, but the owner
was banished by President Barrios for an
alleged conspiracy against the Government
Around the interior were balconies over
looking a garden filled with orange and
peach trees, palms and beautiful flowers.
The fare was good and we had our choice
of pancakes with honey, fish, poultry, fruits,
and coffee and chocolate. You can't eat
there IL you are IN hurry, though. Only
one thing Is served at time and you can't
get cup of coffee until everything else has
been served. The hotel furnishes candles
but matches are extra.
Then there is n system of calling the
guests which entities the hotel to the name
Of the queerest one on the earth. You are
called by flies. The flies down there are
nearly as large as an English spar
row. and they sting like hornet, though
the bite is not poisonous. They never kill
them but brush them away. The halls of
the hotel are filled with these pests in the
morning. Over each door is a transom.
Now If you leave a call for z o'clock your
transom is opened at and the flies 90 in.
DO they wake your | should say so. The
sensation is like that of being sandbagged.
In five minutes from the time your transom
Is opened you are down stairs looking for
the proprietor. 1t doesn't do any good to
kick, though, for that system has been the
custom for years.-Chicago Tribune

STREET COMMITTEE.
The Matter of Improving Pacific Height
PnsInnnad.


Postponed.
Supervisor Bingham presided at the meet
ing of the Street Committee of the Board of
Supervisors yesterday.
The matter of the improvement of Pacific
Heights being taken up for discussion,
Assistant Superintendent Of Streets Owens
reported that his department had ascer-
tanned that the proposed Improvement
would cost more than 80 per cent of the
assessed value of the property affected. He
suggested that the previous action OF the
board be reScinded and that the board COM
mence proceedings for the Improvement OF
the streets running east and west. He also
stated that Surveyor Smith is engaged IN
preparing plans for a sewerage system In
the district Ii the work is begun he
thought that it should be commenced IN
accordance with the proposed sewerage
system.
L. +. Roe urged that some CT the work
could be done now, and John Foley stated
that Sacramento street would stand the cost
of grading, sewering and macadamizing
In his opinion 1t would be an injustice TO
stop work which had already been adver-
tised.
Mr.. Owens added that it would be neces-
sary to receive the report of the Surveyor
before ordering street work.
1t was decided by the committee to ad
wise the property-owners to confer with the
surveyor LOT lne PURPOSE VI ulthluS III
rangements whereby the work might be per-
formed on certain streets where the cost of
the work would not exceed 80 per cent OF
the assessed value of the property.
The request of property-owners to estab-
fish the grade of the crossing OF Alabama
and Twenty-siXth streets at 80 feet above
base and the crossing of Alabama and
Army streets at q feet above the base were
reported fayorably upon.
The committee also decided to report in
favor of the indefinite postpOnement of the
order passed to print at the previous meet
ing of the board providing for the changing
Of the grade of the crossing of Alabama
and A rmV streets

PATIENTS WITH MEANS.
A Mean Fraud PractiCed. on the City
and CountV,

A Mean Fraud Practiced on the City
and County.
There is mean sort of fraud practiced
on this hospital" said Resident Physician
fEgFp5Ria Of The City and County Hospital to
to be stopped. l allude to the frequent
coming in here Of patients who have prop
erty and are well able to pay for their sup
port and attendance. but who represent
themselves as being without means and SO
get the county to stand the expense Of their
sickness.
There ought to be some means of max
ing these people pay for the expense to
which they put the city when it is discoV-
cred that their property is ample for that
purpose. There is a man up in one OF the
wards now who has been here since last
September. He owns fourteen lots in San
Mateo; and there was man brought in
here the other night-a man who owned
$1,000 worth of property in the Mission.
" The other day man in Ward II was Wis
tied by lawyer, who spent some time in
arranging for the disposition of q large
amount Of property that this man pos
sessed. Not long ago a collector called
here to collect bill from man in one of
the wards. When asked what he expected
to get from 4 hospital pauper, he replied
that the man was rich, and owned large
amount of property.
I'VE cannot tell whether patients have
any property or not when they are brought
here. There is no time to stop and cross
examine sick man who needs immediate
medical attendance, but We generally find
out the fact afterward and in such cases it
seems to me that the Legislature ought to
pass some law which would enable tile city
and county to make their property pay the
expense"
The reporter went up to the ward and in
terViewed one of the patients. He said that
he had been sick for two years that he
owned fourteen lots in San Mateo, for
which he paid $1,000 ten years ago. Since
he was taken sick his brother in the East
had paid the taxes. The attending house
doctor said this patient is recovering.
