EXPLOSIVES STOLEN
(Special to the 'Evenlnp Post.")
NAPIER, This Day
The theft of a quantity of explosives from the Napier Harbour Board's magazine has given rise to anxiety among property owners and residents of Hawke's Bay among whom the theft has become known.
Whether the removal of the explosives was carried out with criminal intent, or merely as an act of mischief, there is a real potential danger, and children are being warned against picking up abandoned parcels.
A careful search of all likely places for the disposal of the explosives has been made but without success.
i Frederick Patrick Meyer, aged 74, a pensioner, was fined £1 for a second statutory offence of drunkenness by Messrs. A. Longmore and J, L. Arcus, J.P.s, in the Magistrate's Court today.
