and in 1890 he built Fishers Theater
in that city. This was the beginning
of his career as a theatrical manager.
He has since made rapid strides in the
profession. His first great venture was
"Florodora,'' which scored one of the
most noteworthy successes known in
the theatrical world. The receipts for
this production for the first twenty
weeks in New York were nearly $780,
900. 1t is five years since Mr.. Fisher

CLUB
IS "AT HOME"
INFORMALLY

The Sequoia Club was "at home" to
itself last night at it's clubrooms in the
st. Francis and to a few privileged
guests, and it's truly wonderful how
the Sequoians enjoy each other. But
to be sure, the club is young, and the
friendships beautiful. But it's ever
thus where mind holds sway, and the
Sequoia is largely made up of mind
mind well paprikaed with fun. and
there's an ideal condition. It's real
fun, and therefore the club is destined
to live.
The members gathered in the green
room, where Maynard Dixon's pictures
are on exhibition, and there they chat
ted-aye, and listened-to a mighty in
teresting talk by Edwin Clough on the
Orient, to be sure! What else. pray,
in such hands? With the glamor of an
artist. the journalist gave a fifteen
minute talk on the cities of commerce
on the crimson edge of the ocean
Hongkong, Shanghai and Nagasaki,
and in his own fetching fashion inter-
wove it with a warp Of fine romance.
He was followed by Miss Agnes Muir
ply, the clever Irish maid from Aus
tralia, who gave a short descriptive
talk upon the interesting features of
Shakespeare's home
A potpourri of clever chat, picture,
comment and rare good fellowship
marked an interesting evening.
On Friday night the club will enter
tain Mrs. Gertrude Anterior at dinner
and at reception later.

CHINESE WIDOW
CLAIMS ESTATE
Asiatic Witnesses Give Evi-
dence Regarding Wedding
Ceremony in the Orient

1t may be a difficult thing to prove
Chinese marriage to the satisfaction Of
an American court, but an attempt in
that direction lent spice to the pro-
ceedings in Judge Coffey's department
yesterday.
The hearing was upon the petition of
the widow and relatives of Chew Bing
Quota for the removal of ]. J. Cunning
ham as administrator of the dead Chi
namans estate, and in his opening
statement Judge Dibble of counsel for
the petitioners stated plainly that Cum
ninghams appointment was the result
of fraud practiced upon the widow and
the court, and, furthermore, that Cum
bingham had not made full account
ing OF his trust. E4 j. Hill represented
the administrator and Vogelsang &s
Brown and Judge Dibble looked after
the family's side of the case The rela-
tives want Chew Quon appointed ad-
ministrator.
Chew Bing Quota died in June, 1903,
and as no inventory of his estate had
been filed there is no knowing what it
is worth, but the attorneys saw il may
run anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000.
The deceased was a contractor who
supplied laborers for the Alaska pack
ers, and had several contracts at the
time of his death. These it is said
were adjusted by the administrator.
and an accounting of them is wanted.
After the contractors DEATH accord
ing to the petitioners, Chinese servant
calling herself Lum Quota claimed to be
his widow and had Cunningham ap-
pointed administrator. When the news
reached China the real widow was an
CRY, and with the help of her children
and nephews here the fight for the es-
tate was begun.
Two Chinese witnesses were examined
yesterday to prove the marriage of Low
Shee and Quota. Chew Cum Fong, who
said he was present at the ceremony,
described what he saw through an in
terpreter So did Chew See Now, and
between them they gave a picturesque
story. Low Shee was carried from the
house of her father to that of her pros
pective husband in a sedan chair, and
the witnesses did not see her taken
away. Cakes for the bride were pro-
duced and partaken of by the guests,
and a cup Of wine was poured which
Low Shee handed to her liege lord, and
that constituted the marriage. That
Low Shee was not a slave was evil
denced by the transfer of muchly be-
written red document by her father to
the groom. 1t was the paper of three
generations" corresponding to veri-
fed pedigree. This document was pro-
duced in court, and Cum Fong read it
to the satisfaction of the interpreter.
The last line of the writing was, May
your happiness long continue
The hearing will be resumed this aft
ernoon.

Annroxed Remedies

There is large number OF medical prep
arations that the newspapers of the country
have proven, by analysis and test. to be
either valueless or else Injurious There are
some exceptions; some of such pronounced
merit that physicians indorse them, in spite
OF the average physicians aversion to indors-
ing an advertised remedy.
In this class may be placed Hydrozone and
Glycezone. Although these preparations have
been widely advertised leading physicians con-
cede their wonderful curative properties by
prescribing them right along, with the most
gratifying results. in the treatment of diseases
caused by germs such as sore throat, skin
diseases, stomach diseases etc, etc.
