Mrs. Laird Meredith (Whareanin) returned to the Waivarapa on Saturday from ft visit ■to Wellington. For the first lime in' (he history of the race the English Derby was won this year by a lady. The race was run '•on Juno i, and ,was won by Lady J. Douglas's Gainsborough. Gainsborough, who recently; won the Two Thousand Guineas, is said to be a perfect sample of the English thoroughbred. He was bred by his owner, Lady ■ Douglas, a lceen sportswoman, and i.n expert on all matters pertaining to the breeding and raising of racehorses. She sent Gainsborough into the sale ring as a yearling but the reserve of 2500 guineas was not realised, 2000 guineas being the highest bid and' the colt was retained.

John Ambulance Brigade, nnd the St. John Ambulance Association was i.eld in St. Voter's Church last evening to commemorate the fcstiv.il of St. John, the patron saint of tho Order. There was a very Kood attendance of members, and thoso belonging to the Nursing Division were in'imiform. The ]$ev. H. Watson, vicar of St. Peter's, in the course of his sorinon traced the history of the Order from its earliest days- down to the present time, and showed that now, as then, it had fought for truth and justice, and for the succour of the wounded and the sorrowing. A rather curious coincidence is to be found in the fact that at the downfall of the Order in Malta some centuries ago the Grand Master of the Order was a German. Mrs. Mastey has received a letter from the matron! of the Broikeiilmret Military Hospital (England), saying that the autograph quilt had arrived at the hospital and was a source of very great interest to the patients.
