THE KAIKOURA STAR. KAIKOURA, JULY 10, 1894.

No Open Lodge meeting last evening, owing to the bad weather. The fortnightly meeting of the Mutual Improvement Society, set down for this evening, is postponed for a fortnight owing to the inclemency of the, weather. There should be a crowd in Mr T. Boyd’s paddock (Charlton’s) on Saturday afternoon to witness the ‘ cow-boy’s ’ exhibition.

Neither of the mails—North or South are expected to reach here this evening. The North Coach got across the Awatere all right, but has not yet reached Kekerangu.

Another severe burst of Wintry weather, with a heavy fall of snow, almost down to the coast line. It will be severe on early lambs, of which there are a fair number in the district.

The County Chairman will bring before the County Council, at its meeting on the 21st inst., the question of celebrating Arbor Day here in a befitting manner, or marking it in some way as it should be.

Now' that the Bank of New Zealand's affairs have been fortified, improved business is looked for. Other Banks were keeping funds in reserve to assist it, but now that the State has come to the rescue the money retained for the anticipated emergency is available for the facilitation of trade purposes.

Mr Lloyd, dentist, is expected to arrive here by the North coach tomorrow and may be consulted at Mrs Cooke’s residence. He does not purpose remaining more than a fortnight on the present occasion.

Enquiries are already being made by outsiders regarding the output of the Kaikoura Cooperative Dairy, with the view 7 to purchasing the cheese to be manufactured. It will thus be seen that the Company will not have any difficulty in disposing of its product. The Marlborough Express states that it is rumoured that a slander action is brewing ; the plaintiff' being a wellknown and popular merchant, and the defendant a Blenheim lady. The action will probably be tried at the November sittings of the Supreme Court. Owing to labour troubles in the United States interfering with railway traffic, communication between New York and ’Frisco is interrupted. The Postal Department advises that the mails by the s.s. Monowai last month will, in consequence, be sent across America by the CanadianPacific line. The ’Fiisco mail will leave Auckland next Saturday, and correspondence specially addressed by the Ruahine leaving Lyttelton on Thursday.

At the Town School Committee meeting last week examination of the revised scale of payment adopted by the Education Board with regard to salaries of teachers engaged in the North Canterbury District showed that (as from Oct 1) the Master will suffer temporary loss—recoverable by 8s per pupil over 131 in average attendance —but the Mistress will obtain a permanent gain of £7 per annum —from £lOO to £lO7. Mrs Sandford’s small slice of luck occasioned an expression of pleasure, in the form of ‘ Hurrah,’ from one member of the Committee.

—F. H. Flower, Kaikoura House notifies receipt of a new supply of Yates celebrated seeds.
