Log Chopping.

V» ? e regret tlmfc »n omiasiou uas made in the list of officials of th»* local carnival, published in our last issue .The name of Mr D. Coe, Aeur., should hnve been placed amongst the haudi cappers, the mistake being entirely ours.

By advertisement Mr Kearns ae-J eepis Mr Slater’s challenge. In so the former writes us as follows : -g “ I am very much pleased to accept® Mr J. Rlater’s challenge to chop me hrough a 2ft. log, and must thank him for his generosity in allowing me 2min. start. I will chop him for £5 or more, the money to be deposited at tha Settler office within 14 days from toff ly (25th). I feel as fit as a fiddle, and look upon the mat.cb as a gift. My trainer, Rerehau, is taking great care of me, and never allows ino out of bis sight. He is confident, and there is e very reason to anticipate that I should be the winner.”

A meeting of tho executive of the Kawhia Carnival was held in Mr Fal wasser’s office on Wednesday evening, Mr K. Newton in tbe chair. It was decided to invite tenders for the supply of blocks, particulars of which are advertised in another column.

The secretary was instructed to get (50 member’s tickets present.

It was agreed that tenders bs called lEor tho booth, as advertised elsewhere.
