SUCKERS EVERYWHERE.
Mabls Jolly Tells How The Young Men Of
Idaho Springs Answer an Ad.

Oh myl Really never knew that such
peculiar people lived in the west, and es-
pecially is this so of Colorado. Now, l
always lived in the east where the young
men were very nice, but at the same time
they make girl very tired. They are
inclined to be too dignifed, and an east
ern girl is always longing for something
new. She has read so much about the
gallant young men of the west, that
when an opportunity presents itself she
is not slow to take advantage of it.
Here am. And only a girl. In Colo
rado. 1 arrived just three weeks ago
and to say that have enjoyed myself,
need not be mentioned.
A couple of weeks ago l decided, after
an argument with a lady friend, to place
an advertisement in Srftings. The ques-
ton between us was: "Would I receive
any answers from the young men of
Idaho Springs if an ad was placed in the
paper2" We argued and quarrelled, and
below will be found the result:
DERSONAL-A YOUNG LADY, MUSICAL AND
accomplished, VINO Is spending the summer III
Idaho Springs desires the acquaintance OF an honor
able gentleman; IS worth $4,000 In her own name and
will inherit large sum when she becomes of age. hef-
erences exchanged. Trifers will please not answer.
Object, pleasant time. Address Miss Mabel, box J..
ldano Springs, Colo
Now would you believe it? l insisted
that the young men of Colorado never
did, and never would, answer such a silly
ad My friend said they would. But the
second day after the paper was published
1 received the following letter, written
on the daiutiest and latest stationery on
the market:
Idaho Springs, Colo, June ~, 1902.
Miss MABEL:
81 now take my pen in hand, and
will attempt to prove to you that my at
tentions are worthy of your noble self
can see by the working of your letter
that you are a dear, sweet girl, and 1
could ask have no more pleasure than
being in your company. You say that
you are desirous of having a pleasant
time. Now I am good natured and, to
be frank a pretty good looking fellow,
and provided our friendship should ripen
iuto love, perhaps we could make ar
rangements for an early marriage. Hop
ing may hear from you real soon,

oh, horrorsl l nearly fell dead when 1
read those lines. Here was young man
who was thinking of getting married,
and if my dear Will knew what he wrote
to me am inclined to believe that there
would be trouble.
But who could guess who the young
fellow was that wrote that letter? Not
one of you, dare say He is one of the
most prominent and highly respected
young men of this city, so am told. He
dresses in the height of fashion, and
really, he would make hit almost any
where. His manners are far above the
average. When 1 say this, am not tell
ing falsehood, for l have been intro
duced to him, but not as Miss Mabel.
brought up the discussion concerning the
personal, but he was cute enough not to
have anything to say concerning it.
Here is another:
Idaho Springs, June 20, 1902.
Miss MABEL:
"In answer to your ad in Siftings of
6-28, take pleasure in asking to be al
lowed the privilege of making your ac-
quaintance.
am young man engaged in business
in this city and am willing to entertain
YOU at all times. l would be pleased to
meet you at your own pleasure. At that
time will exchange references.
Very truly,
LLEwELLYN"
1t took ME some time to figure out this
letter. l could not for the life of me un-
derstand why young business man
would want to get acquainted with a
young lady by this means. Again I was
at sea as to who he was. But some
learned that he really was young bust
ness man, and that his social standing
was high. did not answer the above,
but do you know I succeeded in getting
acquainted with him? He never men
toned the fact that he had seen such an
advertisement, but some time I am going
to tell him all about the letter and if
necessary confront him with it.
NOW Ine InOSl SCuSiDlS OhC l. lONSlNGu
will be found below. This young man
evidently wanted part of that $50 900,
and he lost no time in telling me. I ap-
preciate the fact that he was frank
enough to let me know his attentions,
and perhaps I may write to him some
time. However, he will not get $50, 600,
because am not worth that many cents,
and to tell the truth fell like some peo-
pie would say, "thirty cents"

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1902-06-12

The Boer leaders have signed the
terms of surrender, ami Boer war came
to a conclusion on Saturday, May 81.
Dating from eX-President Jruegers
ultimatum, the war commenced oct
II, 1899, though actual hostilities did
not commence till some days later.
Kruger's plans for a Dutch state in
South Africa, stretching from Cape
Colony to an indefinite line north OF
the Transyaal have been completely
broken, and in course Of time the races
will amalgdmate, as races have done
in the past, and VIII do again, and the
march Of material progress will ad-
vance.
The complete pacihcation of coun-
,ry which has been torn by war. and
ali the horrible concomitants Of
war is no easy task. The material
Signs, if money is spent, as it viii be
spent, will soon be obHterated. But
the bitter feelings engendered take a
generation or two or sometimes more
to obliterate. The battle fields of the
War Of the Rebellion smile as only
kindly nature and the industry of man
can make them. But there are men
and women in The South who have
never forgotten, and who have brought
up their children never to forget,
though these are now few in number
and practically abnormal
Every one who has taken an interest
in the progress of Africa will be re-
joiced that the end of the struggle has
| been reached, and Kitchener will be
one of the very few prominent men
who has not lost prestige in South AZ
RIGA, which has proved the grave OF
many regulations. To his skill as a
General ana an organizer, he has add
ed that of a diplomatist.
No comment upon the close of the
war should be without praise for the
bravery of the Beers and the foresight
and military acumen of their leaders
They fought CALAMITY and well, and
won the complete respect of those who
We're opposed to them.

public.
Food Inspector Shorey states that
much Of the sweetened soda if not the
whole of it, which is sold in this city,
has not a particle of sugar in it, but
is all sweetened with saccharine. Tic
probability is that the soda water
manufacturers did not realize that
they were really manufacturing adul-
tered goods. If there is no law which
exactly covers the adulteration, it
ought to be passed at the next session
of the legislature, Indeed our pure

the gasoline schooner, the Eclipse, can
be purchased under the wording of the
appropriation, though to many people
it looks like an evasion. The Eclipse
being two years old is certainly not a
new vessel. The Inter-Island Steam
Navigation paid 100000 for the vessel,
and are willing to get rid of her in
two years at a loss of $4,000, AT the
same rate Of depreciation she might
prove a very costly vessel for the peo-
pie before another two years should be
out. In spite of the Attorney Generals
opinion the Superintendent of Public
Works should go slow in this matter.
