Campbelltown Notes

[from orn own cobbkspondentJ Mr Darragh has now completed the addition to his store, and has opened up a good assortment of drapery, etc., to meet the wants of the public, from whom he is receiving a fair share of patronage. The milk supply is still increasing at the factory. About 5,400 gallons were separated last week, against 4,000 odd the week before. The Mudford Bros, have withdrawn the pipes from the artesian well, and it was found that the bottom pipe was completely smashed. However, they have resumed work in the same place, and reached to a depth of 100 ft. It is to be hoped thoy will prove successful in their third attempt. Mr Whitehead, of Feilding, gave a series of ctereoptical views in the Gospel Hall on Thursday evening last, consisting of scenes of the Tabernacle in the Wilderness, and Prodigal Son. He dolivered in his usual able manner an elaborate address, which was listened to very attentively and much appreciated by his hearers. No charge was made at the doors. This is the second visit Mr Whitehead has made to Campbelltown. On the former occasion he gave views from the Pilgrim's Progress. The opening of the Campbelltown Tennis Club was celebrated on Saturday last. The members met about 2 o'clock in afternoon, and after playing several games were provided with a tea by the ladies. About 25 members were present. In the evening they, with a number of friends, adjourned to the schoolroom, and held a very successful social. Several songs were sung and parlour games indulged in, and after spending a very interesting evening, tho party broke up about 1 1 o'clock. The club seems to be in a very strong position, and i( is anticipated it will be a great success tiiis season.
