The piece presents John L. Sullivan urging youths to avoid alcohol and cigarettes, promote calisthenics and boxing, and support gymnasiums in public schools. He cites personal experience, warns against developing habits before 21, and calls for disciplined, vigorous manhood.
The Wall Street Journal reports the Milwaukee railroad will not extend to the Pacific coast but will set up terminals with Hilroada. The Star previously published the same claim, which local railroad and real estate men mocked. The Star notes frequent head start on railroad news against Seattle papers.
In a continuing narrative, the narrator and a companion sail to Brest where crowds fill the harbor. John Masters sends a warning gift, then travels to Boulogne with plans to meet at a smugglers’ inn. Guards question them, an elegant officer admires mademoiselle, and the narrator hides tension as he handles the situation.
A man and a woman confess longing aboard a ship and vow eternal love. She asks for proof, he reveals his fear, then they kiss and declare love and marriage intentions. Later, the narrator sees Mademoiselle d Arras in a boat bound for a dangerous distant land, with mixed feelings about the voyage.
A clipped local note from the Bountiful Utah Argus reports Josh Wise quotes on opportunity and merit. The item mentions a barber visit by a newspaper man in the city and teases further unsigned society notes.
If the Star misses your copy by six, call Sunset Main 1050 or In a gy 1188 between six and seven for a special delivery. A messenger will bring the paper at once.
