AUCKLAND,
This Day. While some workmen were excavating yesterday afternoon, near the Fitzroy Hotel, Wakefield Street, they came across the the remains of two bodies in a cesspool. The police are making enquiries about the matter. Charles Brown, commercial traveller for Messrs Mackay, Logan, Steen & Co., fractured his skull by falling from the wharf on to a steamer at Whangarei. His life is despaired of . It is believed that North, the WelU ington barber who distinguished himself by gettmg up a £4,000 sweep and then doing the Pacific slope, is at the present time sojourning here. At a meeting of the City Council held on Thursday night it was decided to abolish the adveitising monoply. The Telephone has been agitating for some time to bring this about. A preliminary meeting is to be held to-day to arrange for a Regatta at Ponsonby on Easter Monday.
