Buildings Necessarily New and Clean
•r, but the Old and Infamous Joints
and Dens Will Be Restored—Dives
Already Running Wide Open.
That the new Chinatown of Snn 1
Francisco will be ns much of a show I
place as the old one ns well ns a clean
er, more picturesque uml Interesting
quarter of the city, Is quite evident to
any one who takes a stroll through that
part of the city, writes a correspond
ent of the Chicago Inter Ocean.
On all sides there Is the greatest ac
tivity In building. The structures that
are being erected are. almost without
exception, of a permanent character
and superior In every respect to those
that they replace.
The length of Dupont street from
California to Broadway Is for the most
part already built up, and the build
ings, most of which are rapidly nearing
completion, are to be tenanted by Chi
nese business firms that formerly did
business In the quarter.
All the leading venders of curios
whose wares were so much In demand
by the eastern tourists are locating
In new and enlarged premises along
Dupont street. The much prized ori
ental bric-a-brac, much of It manufac
tured to catch the eye of the eastern
tourist, will be o« sale again as it was
In the old days.
One of the characteristic features of
old Chinatown architecture—the green
portico strung along the first and sec
ond floors of the buildings—Is to be
again In evidence. All the restaurants
and joss houses will have elaborate
porticos of this kind. A new Chinese
theater Is to be constructed at the
north end of Fish alley, and the wail
of the Celestial orchestra will greet
the wayfarer In this neighborhood once
again.
Already the woman with the powder
ed face and the henna painted lips has
returned from Oakland and taken up
her abode behind the green Iron iat
tlce In Bartlett alley. Here and there
are the gaudy signs of gambling
joints, open, although the population
of the quarter has not yet arrived. It
is evident that the word has been giv
en by the authorities that gambling
will be permitted to run wide open In
the new Chinatown, for the elaborate
construction that is being undertaken
by property owners in that quarter
with a view of accommodating the pro
prletors of gambling joints would not
be begun unless It was assured that
these places would be permitted to
run without police interference.
The small merchant Is to establish
himself again in the old locations.
Even Fish alley is to be revived in
all of its odoriferous glory. Several
fine brick structures have been erect
ed at the south end of the alley and
more are under construction on both
sides of the thoroughfare extendin:
down to Jackson street.
The dives along the street leading to
the rhlnesc quarter from Kearney
street have been rebuilt on a greater
and more elaliorate scale than before,
and they are all In operation, running
without any interference from the po
lice. These dens of vice promise to
be more numerous in this section of
the city than they ever were before
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are
being invested in buildings that are
obviously being constructed for Immor
al purposes, and the new tenderloin
promises to be double the size of the
old one.
Waveriy place, Ross nil w and Baker
alley are all being reconstructed with
Imposing brick buildings. Many of
these structures have steel frames and
pressed brick fronts, but arrangements
are being made for Chinese tenants,
and most of the buildings will have
the picturesque green porticos.
Chinese cigar factories have already
located In various places In the quar
ter, and the Industry of manufacturing
cheap smokes Is flourishing again.
The old Chinatown guide who used
to he so much in evidence around the
hotel lobbies is busy exploring the new
quarter and has located several dens
where the poppy Jnlce^ Is cooked and
smoked. TTio prospects are ffiat the
Chinatown guide will find that his
vocation Is an i.nprofltable one In the
new Chinatown, for the old ramshac
kle buildings through which he med
to lead the way have all gone and will
never be reconstructed.
Already the new Chinese tenants are
moving In. and as soon ns the streets
become possible again the life of the
quarter will begin Signs have been
ported In most of the offices of the
Chinese merchants lu Oakland that
thev ate preparing to move back to
Chinatown as soon as possible With
the merchants will come the gambling
bouse keepers, (be restaurant proprie
tors. the chop sney venders and all the
picturesque disreputables that go to
make up an orlentaj quarter.
Walking Illuminated Sign.
The latest advertising dodge Is that
of a man who In top hat and hand
some fur overcoat t hi own open so ns
to expose his full dress, walks along
upper Rrondwav In the evening and
regular!' fin-lies an electric sign placed
across the broad w hite expanse of his
shirt bosom. The power of course
comes from a pocket battery, says the
Mew York Press. As he sign Is not
visible until the power is turned on
ami its wearer has every appearance
of being an ordinal - ' gentleman of
means the effect is doeidedlv startling.
Whether It wl'l cause much signing of
temperance pledges remains to be seen.

The best is Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It
is the best because it docs the most good.
While it makes the blood pure, fresh
and lively, it tones the stomach to bet
ter digestion, creates an appetite, stimu
lates the kidneys and liver, gives new
brain, nerve and digestive strength.
An unequaled list of cures—40,366 tes
