I. Kirk Smith, former newspaper; man, shorthand teacher, press agent. ! showman and a job compositor, is I the happiest man in forty-eight states. Smith has lived in five countries and thirty states and has led a varied and adventurous life, but >t was while working for the Judge Printing Company in this city that fortune gathered all her flowers into one bouquet and showered them upon him. The jovial job compositor recently found in his mail two registered letters either one of which would have furnished a fitting climax for an O. Henry tale. To begin with the one that will always hold second | place in the recipient's memory,j Smith received a registered letter from his sister in Norfolk informing him that a wealthy old lady in Can-; ada whose life he had once saved had died and left him u part of her estate. This would have been enough to crown the life storj ol the average man, but Mr. Smith's friends can scarcely get him to talk about his good luck in this respect, because this information reached him the da> after he hud signed for a legist i\ letter that set him to walk on rarefied air. When Smith lived in New York city twenty-four years ago lie knew and loved a little girl whose picture he has ever carried in his heart. Mother objected to their marriage,' and liiey parted, the girl's family moving West. The lovers lost siglu of each ether. Smith has wandered| over a large part of the world since then, but he has never forgotten' "Kitty."' She had long since passed completely front his life but her meui-i cry had never been replaced in his heart by any othr affection and through many years and in many lands he had remained faithful to his first love. . This was the situation when Kirk , Smith tore open a little blue letterj hearing a meaningless name and an1 address in San Diego, California. But he had not read three lines before hej knew it was from his Kitty. And she! was still his! She wasia widow now, I left comfortably well off and living j in the sunniest region of the Land1 of Flowers, and wondering if Kirk! thought or her sometimes. How his : address came to her possession is a mystery that Smith djd not wait to unravel. He rushed to a telegraph of-! fice and dispatched a night letter. It I read: "Like an angel's echo came your1 precious letter today. Mailing special' delivery. Kemember, always, Kitty, j my darling, the morning's bright sun j in its splendor shall fail to efface heaven s teardrops, the dew; and the mother her firstborn shall fail to remember, ere, 1, darling Kitty, prove j faithless to you. ''Lovingly, / "KIIIK."! The message that came in reply is not for publication, but it contained some reference to orange groves. Smith had led a \aried and checkered Hfe. has been a shorthand reporter on the New York Sun, where he worked under Dana and Lord; a City editor on the old Norfolk Pilot; a press agent for various shows, as: well as manager and proprietor of shows, his work ill Dim slinw husinoss carrying him lo tlie Paris exposition; a teacher of Pitmanic shorthand, at' which ho is an expert; and luud of a business college in Norton, Va. As a joo compositor he has tew equals, litis a man of more than usually inter-; esting personality with a fluent tongue and a ready pen and just the man to figure in a romance. He is some-, times intimately known as Jiggs," a not unfitting appellation. ???? i There were fewer tourists in Cuba last winter than during any period in the recent history of that island, according to the Cuban commission-! er of immigration.
