A WHITE CHINATOWN WIFE.
What the Hospital Patients Thought
of Hedwig Lee.

About three years ago Hedwig Brossak,
pretty and educated white girl, surprised
San Francisco by marrying Ngui Lee, a
Chinese cook. Mrs. Lee retired into the
privacy of Chinatown, and every one pre-
dicted that her life would henceforth be a
burden to her.
The young woman, however, still re-
tains her infatuation for Ngui. She lives
in two little rooms at the top of a big tene-
ment-house on Washington street, and il
would be impossible to swing the proverbial
cat In any part of the Lee abode. The sun
pours in all day through the closed blinds
and the little rooms reach a tropical tenn
perature, but they are an oasis of neatness
and cleanliness in the midst of Chinatown,
and Hedwig says that she is very, very
happy.
Two weeks ago little daughter was
born to her in the City and County Hos
pital, and the mother and child very soon
became the side show of the ward. Sc
cretly the mother rejoiced that it had
blue eyes and blonde hair like her own
people, but she would not own that to the
patients except in moments of confidence.
The most curious inquirer, however could
not elicit a murnlur from her about her
way of life in Chinatown. She has gone
back there now, and the patients are still
wondering whether Hedwig is really very
happy or whether she is too proud to own
that she made mistake.

Questions Before He Will
Name Its Members.

Mayor Sutro has about made up his
mind as to the names of the men he will
select to serve on the Board of Election
Commissioners, but before definitely
rendering the honor he has written them
for answers to five important questions.
The first is as to their views on the general
primary law and as to whether they would
act upon it as binding until the Supreme
Court declares it unconstitutional, If it
should do so. The second touches the
same points as to the election law.
The third requires them to promise to
give all the time necessary to efficiently
carry out the provisions of the law and Sc
cure an honest count of ballots.
The fourth asks if the candidate is op-
posed at ali times to the appropriation of
public school funds for sectarian purposes
The fifth inquiries if he is opposed to the
interposition of corporations in the politics
of the City.
Satisfactory answers are required to
these questions.

Diseases are more prevalent than generally
supposed, and among them all none is more
horrible than Syphilis. Indeed, if not checked
in time it becomes almost as terrible in second
airy and tertiary stages as leprosy itself. Many
doctors suppress this terrible disease by filling
the patients systems with mercurial poisons,
with that damnable curse from which your
children as well as yourself will suffer, but
DOCTOR SWEANY warrants a positive and
permanent cure of Syphilis without injurious
drugs. He also effects a speedy cure in al
cases of elect, Gonorrh9a, Infammations
Palms. Itchings, SwelliHgs and Discharges Of
every kind, Structure, Irritability of Bladder
and kindred troubles, many of which are the
result of improper treatment of former diseases
by other physicians.

Many Changes.

The Improvement Club in Favor OF
Many Changes.
AT a meeting of the Richmond District
improvement Association last night it was
decided to appeal to the Supervisors to
have Washington street extended from it's
present terminus at First avenue through
to Seventh avenue, as all other outlets to
the park are now occupied by the Market
street Railway Company; and if this petit
ton is acted upon, an outlet will then be
available to any competing street railway
which may desire to reach the park.
The attention of the Superintendent of
Streets is to be called to the impossible
condition of Fourth. Sixth and twenty
fourth avenues and to violations of the or
dinance compelling property-owners to
bulkhead their lots.
A petition will be forwarded to the Su-
pervisors requesting that Seventh and
Twenty fourth avenues be regarded from
California to ID streets.
G. H. Hubbs reported that additional
protection was to be given the district.

left the easel will be framed in the course
of the next few days.
The entire collection is to be distributed
among the members of the Art Association
bv lot at the close of the autumn exhi-
bition. 1t has been the custom for a num-
Der of years to allow the artists to pay their
dues to the association in pictures, at the
pleasure of an examining committee,
whose business it is to pronounce upon the
values of the works OF art submitted.
Several years are necessary, however, to

and sediment in urine; impotence or weakness

Many die of this difficulty ignorant of the

middle-aged men, as well as OF young men, his
