Wellington Items.
Forty-five Wellington shopkeepers have given notice to close on Saturday afternoons. The Premier is in receipt of a cable mesaage from the Agent-General, stating the canard published in tho English papers as to a probable deficit of a quarter of a million in the New Zealand Budget has not had the slightest effect upon the stocks of the colony. A rumor is current that either District Judge Kettle or District Judge "Dudley Ward is likely to be appointed in conjunction with one of the Judges of the Native Land Court as Commissioners to enquire into the dealings in respect of the Horowhenua Block. The Premier has received a largely signed requisition to deliver a public address in the Selwyn district. He intends to visit Canterbury in about a fortnight, and will then speak either at Kirwee or Annat. Upon his return to Wellington he will most probably deliver his long-promised address at Hastings, and -will then reply to Captain Russell. — Times. ________
