Back IN New YORK City there. is q
Borrowing but patiens mother who
waits and waits ind hops and lfni'es.
The NaB is j weary one and. Wien,
the facls arc told, her nope must seem
all but vain There Is a possibility
that the word she longs For may
reach her but the probability Is Sd
remote as to make ner hope seem
forlorn. Yet she waits and prays for
word from her boy.
The schooner Allie l. Alger. only
Is feet in length, with 2 cargo of
scrap iron In her hold and more scrap
iron Oh her deck. and leaking, sailed
from Honolulu Tor Yokohama on FRI
day. December .. Aboard her was
the boy FOR whose letter the weary
neither anxiousiy waits. When the
schooner left here waterfront men
said unless she threw over the deck
load before rounding BARRIERS Point
they would give little for her chances.
No word of her arrival at Yokohama
has been received.
Last December the Star Bulletin re-
ceived letter from Mrs. A. Danzis
of New York stating that her son
Max, who called himself Frank. had
written her from Honolulu, that the
letter was typewriter instead of writ.
ten with pen and ink according to
mis-. custom. and he gave his address
as general delivery, and asking the
aid of this paper to locate her boy.
He had, 1t seemed. been with his
uncle In Seattle, with whom he ap.
peared to have had some difficulty.
He had left him, gone to San Francis
co and then to Honolulu, where he
had mailed the typewriter letter
that had alarmed his mother.
IA letter was sent addressed to
frank Danzis. General Delivery, Ho-
noluIu,r the police we're quietly con.
suited and the mother was informed
of what had been done. The letter to
young Danzis was returned, uncalled
for, an article was published 10 the
effect that Airs. A. Dan3is OF New
York was anxious about her son Max,
or Frank. aand the mother was IN.
formed of these facts.
Mrs. Danxis has again written to
the Star-Bulletin. She had received
another letter from her son, about
the time her letter to the Star Bulle-
tin was acknowledged. in which he
told her all about his trouble with his
uncle, that he had intended to stay
in Honolulu and get work but had met
an Englishman who was going back
home but was going TO Japan and
China first, wanted him to accom-
1850. hs,,, thot che cho,,ld uof Writ q
until she heard from her son, that
| they would sail on the Allie l. Alger.
The little schooner left here com
handed by former Boatswain McFad-
den of the John Ena, crew of seven
men and John Sell (the Engliskmar
referred to in the letter. and frank
Danzis. Her captain said he expected
to reach Yokohama in six weeks. The
cargo OF the little vessel consisted OF

Alger than her departure from here
on December Is.
And back in New York the mothel
and the father will, wait AMI hope

Snother's courage, and wait and hop,
against hopelessness for word of theii
boy who sailed away from Honolulu
on the Allie L. Alger, for which water
front men here say that there is al
most no chance of reaching any othe
port than the port of lost ships. ant
whose crew, they believe. is in tn
haven where storms never alarm bu
from which none ever return.
