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


Mr.. EDITOR Il 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 in
meddling with personal rights. On
the 10Th of November there was
held in the court house at Waimea
a meeting for signing two petit
tions-one for and one against a
liquor license. Signers for a license
were made up of respectable citi-
zens and taxpayers who preferred
a 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 80 in favor
and 81 opposed.
Among those in favor appear
eighteen white men-citizens of the
Republic and of those opposed the
names of three white men and
large number of their plantation
laborers. Many of the latter were
unable to write their names. The
absolute rule of a few local men is
getting distasteful to a large num-
Der of Waimea citizens, who wish
to realize on the freedom of the
Republic. l remain, a citizen of

Fisherman Drowned.

William Fears, of Town Point,
who left home ON Wednesday after
noon,. the day of the recent storm,
to fish some nets in Elk river, is
now known to have lost his life by
the capsizing of his boat. Fears
and his uncle, George Webb, of
Philadelphia, both of whom were
expert watermen, left Town Point
on Wednesday afternoon, Dec. 26,
each occupying a small sailing skiff.
They were bound for Greenwood,
on the Elk Neck side of the river,
to fish some pound nets. Having
finished their work, and with the
fish and nets aboard, they started
for home about 3 o'clock. They
had gone but a short distance when
they encountered a violent snow
storm and a high north east wind,
and in short time they became
separated. Webb, who succeeded
in making shore and reached home,
had a narrow escape from a watery
grave. The boat was stripped of
its sails and the rudder was broken,
but he managed by hard work to
keep it from capsizing, and at late
hour beached it in Cabin Johns
creek, where he spent the night in
a vacant cabin.
Fears boat was found last Satur-
day afternoon bottom side up near
Foard's Landing, near the mouth
of Bohemia river. His boat hat
was also recovered. 1t is the sup
position that, after the boat capsized
he chung to the boat until he per-
ished from the cold, as parties re-
siding some distance remembered
heaing cries for help.

Narrow Escape of Skaters.

Skating on the Susquehanna river at
Havre de Grace is prime sport. The
favorite place on the ice is just south of
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti-
more railroad bridge. The pleasure was
suddenly interrupted late in the afternoon
on Wednesday three persons narrowly
escaped being drowned. Thos Wileman,
a half grown youth, broke through by
venturing on some thin ice. Those near
went promptly to his rescue, and Mr..
Henry Keiffler, in his haste to reach him,
misjudged the distance and before he
could stop himself was also immersed
Some boards and boat were gotten
quickly. Mr.. Keiffier was helped out first
as he could not swim. The youth seemed
unconcerned and SWAN around like a
duck while his rescuer was looked after.
About the time the young man was gotten
out Mr.. Jesse Price, who was on different
part of the river, went through an air
hole and narrowly escaped being drowned.
1t was only by friends being very near
him that he was saved. He is a very
young man of stout build aud the ice
repeatedly broke under him in his at
tempts to get out. James Todd and
Ransom Myers, who were near, took off
their overcoats and tied them together
by the sleeves and threw the rope thus
made to him. They then laid down on
the ice, one catching the other by the
feet, and after some difficulty got Price
out in very exhausted condition In
pulling him out the ice was broken for 80
or 40 feet. Including young Crawford,
who was taken out last Sunday in an I'M
conscious condition, this makes four who
have gone through the ice this freeze.
Harry Lloyd, young man residing at
Chesapeake City, had narrow escape
from drowning Tuesday. He was skat-
ing ON the creek, when he broke through
the ice and would have lost his life but
for being rescued by some of his COM
panions.

property and if any thing is left
after paying the debts, that it be
appropriated to holding a three
days Farmers Institute. A COM
mittee was appointed to give effect
