THE LEEwARDIsLANDs ICE COMPANY.

From the advertisement appearing in an
other part of our issue, it will be noticed that
the promoters of the new Ice Company propose
a great alteration on the original scheme, by
reducing the Capital to one third of the amount
previously asked for. The reduction, we un-
derstand. has been largely effected through
the looping off of those parasitical excrescenses
by which the main project was surrounded,
such as the proposed sCool Chamber for
stora re, &c, &c, the operations Of the Company
being now confined to those mentioned in the
title. In this, we think, a wise discretion has
been exercised, a from the results achieved 30
far, it is evident that the original 5000 could
not easily be raised in our own confederation,
land it is most desirable to keep the affair a
purely local one) while all projects outside
the legitimate end and aim of the Company
would in the meantime at least, prove q source
of weakness rather than of strength.
At the meeting to be held at Antigua on the
22nd instant, there will be laid on the table
for discussion q pro-forma-estimate of Capital
and Working Accounts showing how the
former at $4,000, can be made to produce 4,
O00lbs Of ice daily, the receipts being assumed
at 50Olbs of ice at Antigua, at Ed per lb, the
same quantity at St. Kits, Nevis, Montserrat
and Dominica combined also at I'd and another
500lbs ct st. Thomas at Id per lb-or I,500lbs
per day in all actually sold, thus allowing 2,
5001bs for waste in transit, in sales, DC. The
estimated consumption appears to- us very
moderate, too Moderate perhaps, but if SO that
is q fault in the right direction. The project
now appears to be very reasonable, and the few
remaining shares should be really subscribed
t@rNfEA
, 1891-12-30

long before thedate fixed for the closing Of the
lists, 3lst proximo. Let our readers ask them
selves whether they are satisfied With their
present supply of ice, regular enough perhaps
IN the meantime-at double the cost now pro-
posed-but only we think stirred into activity
by the presence of a rival, and if they have
not already countenanced the new project we
think they will do SO now. If the memories of
our good folks are long enough to recollectthe
time previous to the formation of the local
association, they will remember how for weeks
together we were left without an atom of ice to
De had Tor love or money. Let them realize
That the new company is a purely local affair,
to benefit ourselves, that it promises a regular
supply at at least half the present cost of the
article, that a fair dividend seems probable
upon the amount invested, but that above all
the concern cannot be established without funds
which are NOT yet fully subscribed, and we
snal De much surprised if, bearing these facts
IN mind most of our readers do not tender their
practical support to the Leeward Islands Com

A HERO oF.To-DAY.

The good folks of st. John, New Bruins
wick, have Just inaugurated their irt public
memorial, aud a worthy example they have
set in so doing. They have had publio
spirited and able MN of affairs, merchants,
prof essional men and preachers. who have
lived, toiled usefnlly, and died amongst
them. 1t IS for none of these, however, but
In recognition of the true courage, fortitude,
humanity, and self sacrifice of Fred Young,
a lad OF nineteen, that they AVE called in
the AID OF the sculptor to prepare a mOnu-
luent which shall perpetuate his memory to
future generations. The monument, which
cost over $4,000, raised by public subscrip-,
ton, was duly ~inaugurated on the 30U b ult.
in presence of a very large gathering, when
addresses were given by the Mayor, and By
the Rev. Mr.. Bruce, pastor of st. David'S
church, which Fred Young attended.
And this, in brief, was the act OF true he.
roism, so %touchingly fatal in it's consequence
that was sought to be commemorated. On
the 30th October, 1890, during a severe
storm, one of a number of boys playing on
an unprotected embankment fell into tae
waters Of OOurtenay Bay. Fred Young,
in passing to his work, saw the accident.
ran for a life buoy, and, slipping it over his
shoulders, nothing daunted by the fierce .
hurricane and the huge, stormy waves.
plunged into the raging waters, 1.-TWO men
keeping hold of a lifeline about so yards in
length attached to the buoy.
The brave youth had almost reached the
boy, a lad named Mundee, when the herri-
fed spectators saw the end of the lifeline
slip over the wharf. How it happened no
one knows, but the error was fatal to two
lives. Young reached the drowning y
and, holding him up in his arm, called out,
Pull me in but the slender rope UPON
which hung his safety was already fap out
of the reach of those on shore. His lifa
buoy kept him afloat: and lie made a g1l-
liant struggle, all the time keeping firm hold
of young Mundee- For over an hour
he kept up, and then the terrified Gro nd
saw him throw up his arms and sink through
the buoy. The strongest testimony was
borne to Young's character at the unveiiing
OF the monument. But what need Z Suffice
it surely to quote the heading which the
st. John Daily Telegraph host l~egitimately
puts to it's account of the ceremony
"Greater Love hath no Man than this, that
a Man lay down his Life for his Frlend."-.
