Note to His Sweetheart

GIRL FINDS HIM DYING
Mile de Martini Faints
When Her Lover Expires
at Receiving Hospital

When Millie de Martini walked into
the room of her f1ance, William Lee.
at $50 Folsom street yesterday she
found him unconscious from the eff
fects of laudanum. He had drained a
vial of the poison and while death
drew near he penned a last letter to
the girl.
On last Saturday evening Lee parted
tenderly with Miss de Martini. They
had been engaged for more than
year. He spoke cheerfully of the
time when they would be married.
But just before he left her he said.
This may be the last time we may
meet, Mile" The girl only laughed.
They were to be married soon and she
was happy.
Yesterday morning Lee did not re-
port to the City of Paris dry goods
store, where he is employed as a ship
ping clerk. He telephoned to his
brother, Robert Lee, that he was i'll.
The brother informed Miss de Martini.
The girl hurried to the place where
she thought her lover lay i'll. She
found him dying. Beside Lee was a
tender epistle addressed to Millie de
Martini. The heartbroken girl sum-
moned an ambulance and Lee was
taken to the Central Emergency Hos
p1Jal, Wnere heroic measures failed to
revive him. The girl waited outside the
place, sobbing, while her lover passed
away. When told that he was dead
Miss de Martini tainted.
Following are extracts from the let
ter addressed to the girl and found
near Lees bedside:
am up against it, dear That is why I do
this. Pray for me. Never mind, Mille. after
a while you will forget all this and only think
of Billie as he goes to his last sleep I feel
bad for you because you are good. Will you
90 over to see my little nephew? Tell him
have gone away. but do not tell him how I
went. Millie, dear, I would like 10 you be-
fore L go, but I can't muster up courage to
part with you. AS / lose my senses, Millie,

GOod-by.
Friends and relatives know of no
reason why the young man should
have ended his life. He was about %
years of age and of an apparently

Germs promising the unwary a return

exclude the corporation from all cor
porate rights and privileges and to
grant an injunction restraining it from

TALKS FOR E1GHT-HoUR LAW.
Congressman Liyernash Addresse:
Two Meetings on Fourth Street.

Congressman Livernash addressed
two open air meetings last night. one
at the corner of Fourth and Natoma
streets, the other at Fourth and Te-
hama streets. In the course of his
remarks he said in part:
An important business man of this city
writes me that he would be glad to support
my candidacy for Congress but for the fact
that he fears the adoption OF the American
Federation of LAbor's eight-hour bill for
which / have been working would injuriousy
affect American manufacturers. 1t is clear to
me that the gentleman has a mistaken view OF
the scope of the eight-hour bill; and as many
others may share his misnformaton in this
regard, it may be well to explain just what
the bill covers.
The Federal statutes at present require that
all work done directly by the United States
shall be performed on the eight-hour basis
that is to say. the workmen engaged upon
il shall not be obliged to toll in excess OF eight
hours per calendar day. Now the eight hour
bill Congress has been declining TO pass merely
provides that this eight-hour rule shall cover
all work done for the Government instead of
solely all work done by the Government It does
not at all touch work done by or for private
individuals or for corporations. For instance,

Ask to Have Curb Moved.

The United Railroads yesterday laid
a petition before the Board of Public
Works asking that the curbing at
Kearny and Post streets be moved so
that the street railway company may
comply with the ordinance in laying
their tracks at the proper distance
from the curb. The company has
the right to lay curved track at
Post and Kearny streets, and in order
to obtain the proper distance between
curb and track it is planned to move
the tracks a foot and a half on one
side, the curbing a foot and a half
back on the other. The petition will
be acted upon at the next meeting of
the board.

URGE PAYMENT
OF JUDGMENTS
Taxpayers Object to the De-
lay in Return of Special
Taxes Declared Illegal

Several taxpayers appeared before
the Supervisors Finance Committee
yesterday to urge the payment of
judgments obtained against the city
for special taxes paid under protest
in 1902 for schools and hospital, but
since declared invalid by the Supreme
Court. 1t was said that Auditor Baehr
had refused to pay the judgments until
he had compared them with the
amount paid in as taxes, and vigorous
objection was made to the delay. The
committee took the ground that the
Auditor must pay the judgments as
rendered.
The Supervisors ordered the refund
of the taxes on condition that the
costs of suit be waived by the judg-
ment creditors and the committee de-
cided not to recommend the payment
of interest on the claims. An attor-
ney representing forty-four clients
who had obtained judgments agreed
to waive interest if his claims were
paid in fifteen days.
Auditor Baehr later informed the
claims until he had checked the
amounts on the tax books.
Resolutions were passed to print by
the board ordering the return Of $685.
All 28 to the United Railroads, which
paid the amount to the city for the
special taxes under protest; also the
return of 1880 OF to the Bankers In
vestment Company; of $777 IL to w.
H. White and of 1859 AZ to Maria de
Laveaga.
The ordinance requiring that when
roofs are damaged by fire to the ex-
tent of 40 per cent of their value they
shall be repaired with fireproof ma
terials only, was passed to print. The
district to which the ordinance ap-
plies is bounded by Baker and Four
teenth streets in addition to the pres
ent fire limits.
The petition of the Merchants As
scciation that the proposed charter
amendments to be submitted to vote
on November be postponed in view
of the ambiguity of the language of
the State Constitution relative to the
time for their submission was referred
to the Charter Amendment and Ju-
dietary Committee, which meets Fri
day at 1880 p. m. At that time all
matters pertaining to charter amend
ments, including. the direction of the
Mayor to the Election Commission not
to put the amendments with one ex-
ception on the ballot, will be consid-
cred. The exception is the amend
ment modifying the dollar limit of
taxation.

that the applicant had not exhausted
