SYDNEY, N. S. w, Dec. 2S.-An acci-
dent here to-day to party of merrymskers
resulted in the death of ten of them. The
owner of a yacht made up a party of
friends to take a sail and twenty three
persons accepted the invitation. All went
well and all on board were enjoying them
selves until the mouth of the harbor was
reached. Here severe squall struck the
yacht and the vessel cspsized. The squall
passed away as quickly as 1t had come and
vessels in the vicinity bore down to the up
turned craft. They picked up thirteen
persons who were struggling in the water,
but ten of the party were not seen after
the yacht turned over.

From the Leper Asylum.

Mr.. EDITOR, Sir: The unfair
statements in the ADVERTISER of
July 18th, made by your reporter on
the visit of the Legislative Com
mittee to Molokai contains an item
which makes me say the contrary
of what / have said.
L stated before the Committee
that petition of the usual kind had
been signed by lepers,-I am one of
them, and forwarded to Honolulu.
That new item had been added TO
this petition "To remove Mr.. R.W.
Meyer as agent of the Board of
Health and have Mr.. w. II. Tell
installed in his place." after it had
been signed, without any knowl-
edge of the signers.
| therefore asked the Committee
to investigate who had fraudu-
lently inserted this new item, and
l was assured by the Chairman of
the Committee that they would
do so.
l further stated that the wishes
of the majority of the inmates of
the Settlement were far from being
rs expressed in the petition in re-
gard to r. w. Meyer or w. II.
Tell.
/ expect, Dear Editor, that you
will give space to this correction as
soon as possible, and oblige your
servant,
J. PCOWAINA.

to be expected that the Report of
the Minister of the Interior would
contain some recommendation from
the superintendent of Water
Works for an additional supply
from artesian wells. Nothing Of
this duty has been done, and APP
parently this city is to depend in
case of another drought upon the
wasteful energy Of a steam fire en-
CINE to pump the water of Govern
ment wells into the mains. An
appropriation for filters was made
by the last Legislature, but the
mud, Hilo grass seed, blood-suck-
ers and filth come down the valley
uninterruptedly. With the Water
Department so utterly remiss in
its duty, the Board Of Health
should take the matter up, for
with all its shortcomings it must
be aware of the amount of Panama
and other fevers Honolulu is
scourged with. But no, we do not
see even q recommendation to do
something to remedy that awful
pest-hole near the Chinese theatre.
Native boys are frequently seen
swimming in the sewer that should
drain tina tregion, and they blow
out the mouthfuls of blue black
water quite unconcerned. Neither
does this same Board Of Health
suggest any measure to remove the
large number of diseased dogs that
are seen everywhere, but especially
in Palama, and which must sooner
or later contaminate the few de-
cent dogs in the town. Neither
does-but | should make list
that you would have no room to
print, if mention were made of all
the omissions of this so-called
Board Of Health. When will the
Legislators cease calling each other
bad names, cease bringing in RI
diculous measures and turn de-
Gently to do the work for which
the people elected them? But per-
haps they are waiting only to get
Ministry capable Of and willing to
carry out wise measures let us
possess our souls in patience a
while longer.

Base Ball Caused This.

Mr.. EDITOR Why not dub the
boys of the Royal School "Colle-
gians" as well as those of the Ka-
mehameha Schools? The former
are quite as much entitled to the
term as the latter. In either case
it is a misnomer, and to be classed
with the unwise att mpts so preva-
lent here. and elsewhere to degrade
respectable titles, as calling a boot
black or teacher of banjo "pro-
fessor" when neither ever did or
could occupy a chair in any insti-
tuition Of learning. The Kameha-
meha boys may some day become
collegians, but they are at present
school-boys.

A Protest.

Mr.. EDITOR: The new Volcano
foad has now been in course Of con-
struction for several years large
sums of monies have been and are
continually being expended for
supplies, these sums ranging from
$500 to $500 and over per month.
From the beginning to the present
almost all the supplies have been
purchased from or obtained through
one firm and one firm only in this
town.
We have refrained from making
any public protest to this unfair
ness we all want to see this road
put through and we desired to
throw no obstacle in the way. Our
repeated solicitations to the super
intendent in charge of the work
and even to higher officials have
met with no response whatever.
The fact is we are not even given
a chance to quote our prices or
compete at all, while we know that
for most of the goods furnished our
quotations are as low, and in some
instances much lower. Nor is this
only true with supplies furnished
the Volcano road work it seems
to be an understood thing up here
that whenever any Government
work is going on all the patronage
must be thrown in this firms
islands.
This is an injustice at which we
have a right to complain. We also
are obliged to pay for our license
to pay our taxes, to share generally
in the cost of carrying on the Gov
eminent, and there seems to be ne
reason why any of us others shouIc
be overlooked
1t seems to us no more thar
common decency and the onl,
proper way, equally fair to all, t
either call for tenders for supplies
giving reasonable time to procur
the same at lowest market rates
or else, prices being equally tn
same, to divide up the trad
equally all around.
We further trust the members
the Legislature will take thes
facts into consideration when tt
proper time arrives for furtht
appropriation for the new Volcar
road.

DEAR MOTHER DEATH.

When night comes down TO cover
The pleasant hills and sea,
Then little children hover
About the mothers knee.
Their childish griefs and pleasures
Fade with the fading sky,
And all their precious treasures
Dropt and forgotten lie.
Close, close their forms she presses,
Kisses their weary eyes,
And mingles soft caresses
With heart born lullabies.
So, when life's day is ended,
Its joys and orrows DER,
And when it's visions splendid
Delight the heart NJ mo :,
Dear Mother Death enfolds us
In arms that sOothe and bless,
And lulls us while she holds us
To sweet forgetfulness.

to this. Reed was then boarding with the
