GEE IS ALREADY MARRIED.
The Report of His Recent Wedding
Is Therefore Incorrect.

Charles Gee, a Chinaman, who is inter-
ested in a laundry at 1856 Division ave-
nue., Williamsburg, was much surprised
to-day when friends called to congratu-
late him on his marriage.
The story afioat was that Gee was
welded last night to a beautiful young
American woman of high parentage, and
that all the attaches of the Lee Avenue
Court, where he Is interpreter, attended
to wish Joy to the happy coupe.
The attaches Of the courl are very In
dignant over the story. Gee Is not an
official Interpreter, although once :, or
upon. Furthermore, he was married
over year ago, and is the father OF
an infant
The story was circulated by, special
officer, a friend of Gee, who hangs out
in the laundry a good DEAL and endeav-
ored with the kindest possible intentions
in the world to advertise the place.
