DOG POISONING CASE.
Seaborn Luce Tried for Malicious
Injury-Appeal Taken.

Judge Perry's decision in the
case of w. S. Luce, the auctioneer
charged with malicious injury, was
a surprise to both prosecution and
defense Wednesday morning. Mr.
Luce and J. Kalaukoa are both
residents Of Nuuanu valley, and
for some time past the dogs of the
latter have created sad havoc on
Luce's premises.
The CANNES have pulled down
setting hens from their boxes and
made many tempting repast of
valuable fowl, which they killed
on Luce's grounds. The latter
notified Kalaukoa repeatedly to
keep his dogs off the premises, but
he failed to heed the notice.
Mr.. Luce complained to Marshal
Brown of the devastation the dogs
had caused, and the Marshal told
him to kill the animals if they con-
tinued to destroy his property.
Plates filled with poisoned meat
were placed in the yard every
night, and two of Kalaukoa's
dogs helped themselves to feed OF
it. The result was that both can
ines are now occupying graves in
Nuuanu valley. A dog belonging
to J. T. Waterhouse also met his
death by eating away from home.
Mr.. Warehouse made no complaint.
Kalaukoa, however, had Mr.. Luce
arrested for malicious injury. Judge
Antoine Perry found him guilty
and ordered a fine of $40 and costs.
An appeal was taken to the higher
court.

In 1892, Mr.. A. L. Goldwater, who
ownes three retail drug stores in New
York City, having learned of the
great value Of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for colds, Group and wboop-
ing cough, ordered a supply for his
customers. 1t met with SO much
favor that he found it necessary to soon
order more, and during the winter
sold over two gross of the remedy.

WANT A LICENSE.
Waimea Citizens Dislike the Out
come of their Petitions.

Mr.. EDITOR i feel it my duty
to the citizens OF Waimea, Kauai
to place before the public one in
stance of the power OF a few men II
meddling with personal rights. Or
the 10Th OF November there was
held in the court house at Waimea
meeting for signing two petit
tions-one for and one against a
liquor license. Signers for license
were made up of respectable citi-
zens and taxpayers who preferred
legal license to illicit selling,
which is not prevented, although
the officers are making every effort
to do so. Those signing against
the license were from one firm,
their direct employees, three other
persons, and the minister of Wal
mea, making a total of SO in favor
and 81 opposed.
Among those in favor appear
eighteen white men-citizens of the
Republic 4; and OF those opposed the
names of three white men and a
large number of their plantation
laborers. Many of the latter were
unable to write their names. The
absolute rule of few local men is
getting distasteful to a large num-
