Declares There Are BOO Girls for Sale
In Russian Colony at Los Angeles
for an Average Price of $500
Each.
LOS AKOELES, Cal., Dec. 21. In
Judge Wilbur's court hero little Elsie
Nnvikeff, a pretty Russian girl bare
ly out of tho pinafore stage, is on
record today with the declaration that
in the local ltussinn colony with a
population of 30,000, thero nro GOO
girls for snle at an average price of
$300 each.
Shaking with the intensity of her
feelings, Elsie over nml over again
flung tho denials of her own parents
and those of other Russian patriarchs
back into their teeth. Then, pointing
at her aged father, she cried:
"You have sold mo for $500 to n
iiinn I have never seen! I love nn
American and ho loves mo and wo will
bo married just ns soon ns wo can
get away from our people."
When her American sweetheart.
Itn-yner Ilolbock, a young naval offi
cer, stood beside hor, Elsie declared
sho would not relinquish him for tho
stranger to whom sho sworo her par
ents wore tr.iug to sell her.
"Six weeks ago," onid tho girl,
"poor liltlo Sarah Kntawn, only 15
years old, was sold to a man sho had
never seen. Her parents put long
dresses on hor, and with n whito veil
on her head, sho was sent to the al
tar. She looks like nn old woman
now.
"Then there was. Stella Mnrehn,
only l(i, Sho was sold to nn old
man with n dirty beard for $700. Sho
is simply miserable ntufis sobbing her
life away." ,
Miss Jfnvikoff was arrested for de
linqueney after she had fled from her
own homo and taken refuge In that of
her sweetheart's mother. Iu yiow of
tho girl's sensational testimony, Judge
Wilbur continued tho ease until Jan
uary 2, so that a full investigation
eau ho made.

AH of the Mail Received From tho
Kiddies by Postmaster Woodford
Addressed to Venerable Saint Is
Turned Over to Relief Society. ,
Rev. A. A. Holmes is Santa Clans;
now, what d'yo think o' that?
At least he gets Santa Clans' mail
from Uncle Sam each day, and Undo
Sam is very, very particular who ho
gives mail to. Rut each day Rev.
Holmes calls at the postoffico nnd
innuiros for muil for Santa Clatts,
and hardly over is ho disappointed,
for much of Santa's mail is addressed
to Medford.
In accord with n new ruling of
Frank II. Hitchcock, postmaster gen
eral, each pobtmnster is permitted to
turn over to tho chnritnblo institutions
of tho city all lolors addressed to
Santa Clans, excepting those with re
turn cards on them, when they nro
returned to tho sender. So Postmas
tor Woodford each day turns over
Santa Clmis' mail to Rev. Mr. Holmes,
ns secretary of tho City Relief so
ciety. A largo number of tho letters hnvo
been received, somo of them from out
lying towns, whoro tho kiddies evi
dently believe that tho vcucrablo saint
lives in Medford wo don't know, but
probably on Mistlotoo or Holly streot.
Each letter will ho considered nnd
if from somo little tot whom Stinta
might ovorlook the relief society will
tako necessary steps to bring n ray,
of gladness Chribtmas day, whoro
otherwise would havo been sadness '
and disappointment.
