DUNEDIN.
December 19.
For ten senior scholarships there are twenty-three competitors and for six junior scholarships forty - eight competitors. A number of the parishioners of the late Rev. Mr Johnston, for many years pastor of the Presbyterian Churcn at Port Chalmers, have presented his widow with the title deeds of a house and section costiog £450. On Saturday evening, as the train from Invercargill to Dunedin was passing across the Taieri Plain 3, an aerolite descended within about one hundred yards of the train. There was a flash and an explosion, the latter sounding as if fifty thousand rifles had all gone off at once. The passengers congratulated themselves that the visitor from space fell clear of the train.
