The Herald and News cares very
little about the matter one way or the
other, but it seems to us that the board
should have exhausted every available
means of procuring complete and
correct list of the freehold voters, and
if neither petition had the requisite
number should have followed the law
and let Newberry have prohibition
plain and simple, for it would have
been Just as lawful under the act as to
have dispensary. Mr.. Perry's peti,,
ton seems not to have been considered
at all.
There are many people curious to
know Just how the board reached their
decision, so we publish again this week
the list Of freehold voters upon which
the board based their action, and also
Mr.. Maybin's petition, as it was before
the board. On his petition are ninety
three names. OF these ninety-three we
find that on their list of freehold voters
twenty-five of them do not appear.
They are the following:

A SEA GULL.
Brings the News of Famous Disaster
on the IndIan Ocean.

Brings the News OF Famous Disaster
on the Indian Ocean.
''rhe news of famous disaster OF
the great Indian ocean was brought &c
the living by a sea gull, says writer.
"Some years ago the ocean liner At
limits, plying between Liverpool and
Calcutta, was lost in the Indian sea,
and all on board persisted. At that
time was sailing from London to New
South Wales via the Red and the In
dian seas. The boat I was on was the
Tritonia, good, sound vessel, and
had an enjoyable trip. While sailing
in the Indian sea sea gull was one
day captured, and about its neck was
tied small note, which read:
'.Atl2ntis struck on the Harad Rock. We
are all lost FATHER CoArHE."
This remarkable message was ali
that was ever found. The boat had
sailed some five months previous, well
stocked with merchandise and passen.
gers and had been duly inspected and
pronounced seaworthy. It must have
been 4 terrific shock that caused her
to sink. But the messenger was
strange. Who father Coathe was and
how he happened to have a sea gull at
hand will always remain n mystery.
What wonderful courage he must have
had, standing as he did on the brink
of eternity and there writing a mes
sage to the living. We continued our
journey to Sidney, where the note and
the sea gull were both delivered TO the
harbormaster, together with the evil
dence of the crew. This was after
wards sent to England where the
knowledge was distributed It seems
TO me that few such facts as these
would serve to build narrative upon,
and you can easily believe that it
would be more interesting than fc-
