petition, which was drawn up by W. R.
Castle and is being circulated by the

ITO the Honorable J. A. King, Minister
of the Interior:
''Sir-The undersigned, having learn
ed that petition is in circulation for
the granting if retail liquor license to
be located at the Peacock premises on
the Waikiki road, opposite the Waikiki
Church, respectfully represent that in
their opinion the opening of a saloon
at that place will tend to lower the
present tone of said locality, to invite
disorder and rowdyism, and will Ne
crease the value Of property in the
neighborhood. For these reasons, as
we'll as many others, they pray that nc
license be granted for said neighbOr-
hood"
Copies were placed in the Contra,
Union, Methodist. Christian and Native

Eyes, it's me-"
"Well, we'll, Elem, OF boy" said tho
loud one, "by ginger, I'm glad t see

thought yeh was dead sure enough"
There was husky emotion In his voice.
The youth found that now he could
barely stand upon his feet There was
sudden sinking Of his forces. He
thought he must hasten to produce his
tale to protect him from the missiles
already at the lips of his redoubtable
comrade. So staggering before him he
began: 'Yes, yes Twelve had an
awful time. I've been all over. Way

cradle glibness-
But his loud friend interrupted hast
lily. Eyes, an he got shot in the head
an he's in fix an we must see to him
right away" He rested his rifle in the
hollow of his left arm and put his right
around the youths shoulder.
Gee! it must hurt like thunder" he
said.
The youth leaned heavily upon his
friend "Yes, it hurts-hurts q good
DEAL" he replied There was falter-
ing in his voice
"Oh!" said the corporal He linked
his arm in the youths and drew him
forward. Come on, Elem. I'll take

As they went on together, the loud
private called out after them: PUT I'm
to sleep in my blanket, Simpson. An
hold on q minnit-here's my canteen-
It's full of coffee"
The youths senses were so deadened
that his friends voice sounded from
afar and he could scarcely feel the
pressure Of the corporars arm. He
submitted passively to the 1atter's d.
recting strength. His head was in the
old manner hanging forward upon his
breast His knees wobbled.
The corporal led him into the glare
OF the fire. Now, Flem," he said,
