Says He Is Son Of Well
Known Hllo Man;
Forgets Bills
"Come through," said Supervisor
Jim Qulnn In sepulchral tonm yes
terday, and thereupon exploded a
fallacy. I
The fallacy was a young man of
pleasing countennnco decorated by
n small black mustache, a Hawaiian
In nil sooth, nnd slim, nnd nlso
claiming to be the son of John
linker.
Ills claim was unquestioned nt
tho Young Hotel, nt clothing stores,
nt Wuialua and nt various other
places, hut Supervisor Jim Is an ox
icrt In genealogy, heraldry and vari
ous other polite arts, and knew right
well that John Ilaker of Hawaii has
no son.
To date. Unknown, alias John
linker, Jr., has not enmu through,
nnd u quiet search Is being made
for him. He camo up on the Mnuna
Kca and is said to hnvo u borrowed
co.it. Not a whit abashed by this,
he took an elegant suite nt tho
Young nnd ordered dinner for fif
teen. Tho hotel people hastened to
bcrve.
One of the young man's guests at
the dinner was Sheriff Jarrett, who
wns very much surprised when ho
heard about It. Sheriff Jarrett was
not there In person, nccordlng to
Sheriff Jarrett, but Sheriff Jarrett
was there according to tho young
man, nnd n personal friend at that.
At 3 o'clock In tho morning the Un
known Young Man took hack rides and
was accompanied by lady friends and
yesterday ho ordered a largo dinner
for tcu at Walalua. Tho dinner was
served, but Jim Qulnn was to taku
him to Walalua In nn nuto. Jim Is n
personal acquaintance of John Ilaker
and had 'splcions of his linn. He took
the young ladles to tin if various homes
nnd the Young Mnu back to tho lintel.
The Young Mnu sprang g.McofuIly
nut and went Into thu hotel.
"Hey!" said Jim Qiiltui.
Tho Young Man condescendingly
camo back.
"Come through," said Jim Qulnn.
"Seo jou tomorrow nt tho htnk,"
said tho Young Man.
j "How," said Jim ()ulnn.
I Thu Young Man hesitated. Jim
Qulnn leaned over the side of the auto.
"Say, Young Man," hu bald conll
dontlally, "You don't owo mo much
but you owo u lot of other people ii
whole lot. You'd better skip."
The Unknown Young Man can't In
found. Incidentally ho had suit cases
nnd clothes sent collect to his room at
tho hotel. Ho bad booze muchly ami
other things all of which is very good
for a young man with u borrowed coat.
Tho hotel people rtlll think that tliero
Is n chance of Mm being John Dnker,
Jr., out on a laik and do pot seem to
bo worried.
Curtis Iiiukcn, ono of John linker's
most Intimate friends, say a ho has
seen nothing of any of linker's sons.
When Qulnn pointed out Ham Parker
to tho Young Man, ho didn't know lilm.
Any sou of John Ilaker who doesn't
know Sain I'arker must bo a myth.
Perhaps some Hllo Young Man has
been rending tho pners nnd thinks
Ilakor Is a good immo to travel on, In
Honolulu.
