Especially When The Strangers Are
Young Ladies Betrothed to Others
Far Away Who Trust Them.


1t would be well if certain young So
ciety men in Honolulu would remember
that all is not gold that glitters. In 9TH
er words just because certain young Ia
dies from abroad are adopts at the art
of making goo-goo eyes, it does not sig
nifty that the aforesaid young men are
the only ones.
Now it has come to pass that there are
certain young ladies sojourning within
the gates of Honolulu who have made a
nine-strike with several young men. The
latter for the time being have laid by
the ordinary duties of life, and are sit
ting up nights trying to think out nice
and novel ways for entertaining the
Mainland maidens. Bad matters are
at the best, there is one young man who
is fast losing his heart. The young lady
to whom he is paying particular atten-
ton seems so appreciative, too. She up
braidS him for his prodigality and tells
the dear boy not to spend his money, IN
treats with him, implores, does every
thing, in fact. but refuse to accept his
attention. All this time the one young
man in particular is unmindful of the
fact that even now, in far away Los An
geles the engraver is working on plate
from which will soon be printed invita-
tons announcing the young lady's mar
riage to wealthy young Angeleno. And
the gentleman in the land of sunshine,
beloved is behaving as demurely as a
soon-to-be-married young lady should.
The fair ones, when mildly reproached
for their actions, put up such an Inno-
cent front that their would-be censo-S
have not the heart to criticize them. A
word of advice might not be out of place,
in passing, to the demosels. 1t is this.
When talking over your plans girls, don't
sit on the front piazza of your caravan
sary and deliberately make your plans
in such a tone of voice that everyone
within a radius of fifty feet knows exact
ly what you intend trying to do.
BEWARE! SHE'S FOOLING THEE
1t looks like a mighty mean thing to
do to ''tip-off'' another fellows game, but
The Republican really cannot see the
young men of the city devote their undi-
vided attention to young ladies from the
Mainland of whom they have but little
knowledge. AT one of the hotels there
are three young ladies. They are here
on a visit. They are pretty and dainty
and accomplished, but the young men
who swarm about them are wasting
their time, for the ladies are all three
to be married very very shortly We
have this from an unimpeachable source
the young ladies themselves. For in
the exuberance of their spirits over the
jolly good time they have been having In
this city they have taken nearly every
body in town into their confidence except
the young men who are paying them
suit. We do not mean to say that the
young ladies have come to us and made
a heart-to- heart confession of their lit
tie affairs, but the lanai of the hotel is
large and it's acoustic properties have
considerably aided in the spreading of
the news, by the careless, light-hearted
way the girls have of discussing what
Charley or Frank or Ben has done, or
will do to make it pleasant for them
Just to think of it." one of the girls
