HONOLULU DRUG MAN
WOOS BUT FAILS TO MARRY
S. K. Marsh Met Miss Chispa Sanborn Here a
Year Ago and Won Her Heart Obtained
Marriage License and Then Disappeared.

I city, but is said to come from an ex-
cellent family in Rochester, New York.
He came here about eighteen months
ago, but remained here only a short
time. From here he went to Honolulu
and obtained a position there as man
ager of drug store.
Marsh is a tall, handsome fellow,
about 80 years old and dressed with
excellent taste. He had a pleasant
way about him that created a favora-
BILE impression with all with whom he
came in contact, and he quickly be-
came a favorite in the social world at
Honolulu.
Miss Sanborn went to Honolulu on
a visit early last summer and there
she met Marsh at a social function.
Marsh was Immediately smitten with
the charms of the young lady and paid
her marked attention while she was
| in Honolulu.
She left the islands early in the fall
and came back to this city About two
months ago Marsh resigned his posi-
ton in Honolulu and followed Miss
Sanborn to San Francisco, where the
acquaintance of the young couple was
renewed. Marsh pressed his suit and
about month ago the parents of the
young girl announced that she was en-
gagged to marry Marsh.
Marsh had letters of recommended
ton from prominent people in the
East, and he found no difficulty in OBJ
tanning employment with langley &
Michaels, the wholesale drug firm.
Then commenced the troubles of the
young lover. He spent money freely
and was considered good fellow"
He lavished attentions on Miss San
born and ushered himself into the
good graces of her parents by his Gull
tivatAd manners and appearance.
About a month ago he was discharg-
ed by Langley & Michaels for an al
legged shortage in his accounts. Since
that time he has not been working.
but has managed to exist by resorting
to frequent touches" from his friends.
About six weeks ago he took apart
ments at the Edgemere Hotel. on
Bush street. He left there two DAYS
ago, and has not been seen or heard
from since.
Managere Gray of the Edgemer
states that Marsh had paid his bills
at the hosiery and was well liked by
all who met him there.
A few days ago Marsh took out a
incense to wed Miss Sanborn. The
wedding was to have taken place next
thursday, but in the meantime the

girls father had heard rumors about
Marsh's alleged financial troubles, and
two days ago he laid the matter be-
fore his daughter and the engagement
was broken off.
Miss Sanborn is said to be broken
hearted over the affair. She trusted
Marsh and could hardly believe that
he had acted as he did until she was
convinced of the facts by her father.
The parents of the young lady are al
so deeply affected by the unfortunate
affair, but are glad that they found
out the true conditions of the case be
fore it was too late.

Sanford Kendall Marsh, who was
employed in Honolulu drug store up
to few months since, has figured in a
rather sensational wooing of a San
Francisco young lady. whom he met
last year in Honolulu. On the day
that Marsh was to leave for the coast
he had an experience with the police.
He was ON the deck of the Alameda,
covered with leis and smiling his adieus
to friends on the dock when de-
tective requested him to accompany
him up town to business house where
he owed considerable account. After
much useless pleading to forego this
proceeding, Marsh went below remov-
ed his leis and went up town with the
officer and made arrangements to have
the account, which amounted to about
$50, paid. He then returned to the
steamer, again donned his leis and
sailed away
Now it seems that after wooing Miss
Chispa Sanborn, he suddenly and
mysteriously disappeared on the eve
of his marriage. Miss Sanborn is a
recognized favorite in the social world
of San Francisco. The San Francisco
Call of February 6 contains the fol-
lowing account of the affair:
Marsh had got himself into some
financial difficulties which became
known to the father OF Miss Sanborn.
Mr.. SanbOrn Investigated the facts and
decided at once that Marsh was not
a fit husband for his daughter. Marsh,
in the meantime, got wind of what
was about to happen and he left the
city two days ago for parts unknown.
There is quite romantic story be-
hind the whole thing. The young
couple met last summer in Honolulu
and an attachment sprang up between
them. Miss Sanborn came back to
this city shortly after the meeting in
the tropics. Marsh followed her here,
pressed his suit and about a month
ago the engagement of the young cou-
pie was duly announced
Miss Sanborn is the daughter of
Colonel Sanborn, the local agent of
the Burlington route, and very prom
inent in railroad circles. She is a
beautiful girl, great social favorite
and has had many suitors for her
hand.

AS A YOUTH.
Washington Did Many Things When
Boy That Were Worthy of
Grown Man.

The early age at which Washington
developed the tender passion has been
noticed. In fact, it was despair at the
uncompromising attitude of a certain
'Lowland Beauty" that he fled to the
domain of Lord Fairfax, afterwards
his patron. The noble gentleman had
left England and buried himself in
the wilderness on account of a disap-
pointed passion; perhaps George, who
was then coming Is, felt there might
be bond between two such wounded
hearts," at any rate, before he had
been many months under Fairfaxs
eye, just as he was completing his six
teenth year, he set out on a surveying
expedition. The Englishman's ground
included thousands of acres of the
most fertile country in the world, ex-
tending in a wide strip from the sea
to the Alleghanies. It was no small
sign of confidence to allow youth to
lay out such country.
This position is merely a sample of
the many important places he held.
At l9 he was major of the Virginia
militia; at Fl he commanded an impor-
tant expedition to Du Quesne Small
wonder is it that his first love came so
young.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Just honor to Washington can only
be rendered by observing his pre-
cepts and initiating his example,
Robert C. Winthrop.
However his military fame may
excite the wonder of mankind, it il
chiefly by his civil magistracy that
Washingtons example VIII instruct

A great and venerated character
like that of Washington is
not an isolated fact in history to be
regarded with barren admirat ion--it
is a dispensation Of Providence for
good.-E. Everett.
He illustrated and adorned the CIV
ilization of Christianity and furnished
an example of the wisdom and per-
lection of it's teachings which the
subtlest arguments of it's enemies
cannot mpeach.-Zebulon B. Vance.
George Washington, the brave, the
wise, the good. Supreme in war, in
council and in peace. Washington,
valiant, without ambition; discreet,
without fear; confident, without pre-
sumption.-Dr. Andrew Lee.
To add brightness to the sun or
glory to the name of Washington Is
alike impossible. Let none attempt
it. In solemn awe pronounce the
name, and in it's naked, deathless
splendor leave it shining on.-Abra-

In old age the mucous membranes
become thickened and partly lose their
function.
This leads to partial loss of hearing,
smell and taste, as well as digestive
disturbances.
Peruna corrects all this by it's spe-

branes of the body.

SAID BY WASHINGTON.

Be courteous to all, but intimate
with few, and let those few be well
tried before you give them your con-
fdence.
The company ON which you i'm
prove most will be least expensive
to you.
1t is easy to make acquaintance,
but difficult to shake off, however
irksome and unprofita BILE they are
found, after we have once commit
ted ourselves to them.
1t is maxim with me not to ask
what, under similar circumstances, /
would not grant.
[ expressly forbid the sale or trans
portation out of the said common
wealth, of any slave l may die pos
sessed of, under any pretense what
soever.
In my estimation, more permanent
and genuine happiness is to be found
in the sequestered walks of con-
nubial lie than in the giddy rounds
of promiscuous pleasure or the more
tumultuous and imposing scenes of
successful ambition.
Without virtue and without in
tegrity, the finest talents and the
most brilliant accomplishments can
never gain the respect and conoiliate
the esteem of the truly valuable part
of mankind.
I shall never attempt to palliate
my own foibles by exposing the er-
ror of another.
Nothing would give me more real
satisfaction than to know the senti-
ments which are entertained of men
by the public, whether they be favor
able or otherwise.
