President Roosevelt has ordered the ndictment of the Beef Trust directors. The Buluwayo-Zambesi section of Cape-to-Cairo railway will be opened next year. A bridge 500 ft long is being built over the Victoria Falls. We understand that Mr Easton has secured the contract for the erection of a dwelling house, on the Avenue for Mr Henry Coley. Mr Aitken has been re-elected Mayor of Wellington unopposed. We remember that a defeated candidate at the last election informed the public that he meant to stand year after year until he was elected. He appears to have forgotten all this. Sir Joseph Ward has received the following cable message from Major Pilcher, Capetown, dated the 14th inst Colonel Davis wires that the principal medical officer at Potchefstroom reports re men injured in railway accident:—Whitehead and Pearson, dangerously ill; Lee, Grant and Whetter, seriously; others, greatly improved. The thirteen men killed were buried at Klerksdorp yesterday (Sunday). There was a very large military funeral, attended by the Seaforths, Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders, R.A.S., South Welsh Borderers the Commonwealth Regiment and the New Zealand Brigade ; also by hundreds of civilians. Great sympathy has been shown by everyone.

“ Anything sensational on the voyages ? ” was asked of Captain Hammond, commander of the barque Wasdale, which arrived at Wellington from Adelaide. “ Well,” replided the skipper, “we met a floating lunatic asylumn outside. It was a French vessel, and those on board were either mad or drunk. They flew a signal that they were on the way to New Caledonia, but gave no information as to where they were from. We sent aloft the red ensign, whereupon the foreigners hung out the signal “ Rats ” and offered to take the Wasdale in tow. For a long time the stranger’s sails were all braced to leeward, and although when we saw the last oi them the canvas on the mizzen and main masts had been slewed to the wind, that on the foremast was still flapping against the spars.” Mr Tozer, our local watchmaker, has just received a new stock of clocks, watches, and plated ware, a good assortment of which are displayed in his window.

From enquiries we have made we are assured that the erection of freezing works somewhere near the mouth of the river is assured sometime during the present year. We feel sure that the enterprise will receive the cordial >i'd snpn-irt of every settler iu uL.uci, as well as all on this coast.

Law appears to have a great attraction for some people. We are informed that writs have been received by a well known business man for £5Ol each, as a balm for some proceedings that were lately taken in the local Court for the recovery of certain goods purchased without the consent of the owner having first been obtained.

The price means £196 per foot, and the Isssees interests have been valued at £xo,ooo, which will fall in to the purchaser at varying periods. SANDER and SONS EUCALPYTI EXTRACT. According to reports of a great number of physicians of the hightest professional standing, there are offered Eucalpyti Extracts which possess no curative qualities. In protection of the world wide fame _of Sanders and Sons preparation we publish a few abstracts from these reports, which bear fully out that no reliance can be placed in other products Dr. W. B. Rush, Oakland Fla., writes It is sometimes difficult to obtain the genuine article (Sander and Sons). I employed different other preparations; they had no therapeutic value and no effects. In one case the effects were similar to the oil camphors, the objectionable action of which is well known.” Dr H. B. Drake, Portland, Oregon, sa yg_i' Since I became acquainted with this preparation (Sander and Sons) I use no other form of eucalyptus as I think it is by far the best.” Dr L. P. Preston’s Lynchburg, Va., writes—“T never used any preparation other than Sander and Son’s, as 1 found the others to be almost useless.’* Dr J. T. Oormell, Kansas City, Kans;, says —“ Care has to be exercised not to be supplied with spurious preparations, as done by my supply druggist.” Dr H. H. Hart, New York, says—” It goes without saying that Sander and Sons’ Eucalypti Extract is the best in the market.” Dr James Reekie, Fairview, N. M. —“ So wide is with me the range of ’applications of Sander and Sons Eucalypti Extract that I carry it with me wherever I go.
