On board the Mariposa when she
run on the rocks a week ago to
dav at Napier Polut, about 10
milt's south of Bella Bella, was
a voung lady who was on her way
to Sitka to marry one of the
business men of that place, who
had been In correspondence with
h.-r through the good offices of
some matrimonial agency and had
sent her money with which to make
the triii. from her home on the out
side to the snug little olace he had
prepared for her in Alaska. When
th<» Mariposa went a. hare the
young lady very naturally was
much terrified and seeing her plight
a passenger of the sterner sex
took it upon himself to soothe and
quiet her and to see that she got
o't safely onto the rescuing boat
that had been sent to their r©
l'ef. Had the stranger's courtesies
euded at this stage of the pro
ceedings, all would have )been well,
but he persisted in his attentions
until the Despatch 'reached Ketchi
kan, by which time he had so in
gratiated himself with the fair one
that the services of a minister were
invoked and the pair made one,
wi'hout probably a thought for
the disconsolate one at Sitka who
put up the "long green" that made
the joyous event possible, aad who
is probably now wearing his heajrt
out iu unavailing longing for the
fair one who will never reach there.
