Manawatu Herald. TUESDAY, JULY 11. 1905.

Last wc-k iUi )f> ions of coal was ex ; ported !rGri-ymOuth —a record. The 15:.-dev ride meeting, at which New Zealand is represent -d, opened vesterdnv.

The annual gen ral meeting of members of the Fn.-Ron Racing Club will be held on I'rid ay evening next, 14th hist. Football is almost as p .pillar in Burma as it is in this c mnLy. The natives play the game unshod and kick and shoot goals with bare feed.

Use is second nature. At the footballers dinner on Siv unlay night the chairman commenced his duties by announcing that “ Cr Siiadoolt will now propose the toast,” etc.

“ t Fools build houses,” said a genial friend to R. S. Hawker when he was build ng his vicarage, “ and wise men

live in them.” “ Y.-s,” replied Hawker, “ and wise me 1 m dm proverbs and fools qtio'e them.” The “ Evening Post ” is informed that borrowers from Government lending departments are not compelled to insured with the State Fire lusmance Department in regard to existing loans, imt in.any future loans tnis will be a condition imposed. A meeting of farmers interested in the erection ot a new creamerv nearer to Fo.xton than (he Mon oa Road skimming s'ation was held last week. Yesterday a representative of Messrs Beattie, Lang, and Co., dairy produce exporters, met the settlers and it was decided to erect a creamery in the vicinity of the intersection of Nos. 1 and 6 Lines, a guarantee of about 400 cows being forthcoming.

N iwadays mie never sn-i an illustrated dress-making advertisement that is not an insult to any self-respecting woman. Even in the high-class ilhisDate ! weeklies no sooner do we turn the pige to the advertisement sheets than we find the same demi-monde d’storiion of the “ fmi Me form devino ” —a figure for.all the w aid like a wa<p wit I: a slomach ache. —Sir Robert An ders m in the " Daily Graphic.”

The gift ot vivid metaphor possessed by the haulers of the Far West is exemplified by a short dialogue' in Mr Sn wait White’s bonk, ‘The Anntain;.' Somewhere on the nigged backbone of Crilifo-i} a, i-ne limiter observed to another in c nversaiion, ‘ Yes, I ran on to a she-hear and cubs that waV once. Didn’t have nothin’ hut my six .-hooter, and I met her within six foot.’ He stopped with an a:r of finality. ‘ WMi. want did yon do ?’ we asked. 1 Me ? ’ lie. enqnin d, surprised, ‘Oh. I just leaked out of the landscape.’ ”

It seems that a leader which we printed last week including some exirams taken from the “ Hawke’s Bay Herald ” on “ Up-to-date Reformers " in which a contributor speaks somewhat disparagingly ot Lie clergy in their methods of temperance reform has brought one of Die local clergy into the lists to do battle for his side. On Sunday night last, Rev. Foathcrston read a few extracts from ihe article in question, and announced that on the forthcoming Sunday evt ning !r- in'ends to make it the subject ol an address.

The local rowing club should during the “ off” season endeavour to i nprovo the boat landing at the shed. It is now a laborious task to get a boat in, but the judicious arrangement of a block and tackle at the back of Ihe shed wmild liehten the work. Recam’y m local enthn-in «t while assisting io put a boat in the sln-d slipped and took an involuntary bath in the Man iwain. The water was -nt a pci it or two below zero, but in thinking of some suitable criticism of the c! il> officials the wet one’s temperature rose to about 600 Fahr. Fortunately fie caloric was diffused through the resulting ste ;n.i blowing off, but such a waste of energy was nevertheless to be regrelted. Possibly some day if a fatality occurs the necessary expenditure of a few shillings may come about.

Dining the course of some remarks in proposing the toast of the “ Press ” at the football dinner on Saturday evening, the Chairman said he thought fin- press exerted one of the greatest influences for good, and a wed-condncted newspaper might pos sess even more power than the pulpit. The reference to the pulpit reminds us that apparently the representatives thereof have not so much faith in the broadsheet, as when they wish lo make known the approach of a small function they utilise shop windows for toe announcement. The practice-'is certainly not confined to church people, though thev are perhaps the worst offenders. We do not make these remarks m anger, hut rather in sadness of tie irt, while thinking that those who teach “the brotherhood ' f man ” should look for all the brotherliness toward them and give little in return.

A new organ of political thought, the “ Liberal Herald,” has made its appearance, and a copy is to band from the publishers in Wellington, The “Liberal Herald” describes iitself as the official organ of the Liberal Party of New Zealand—and it looks it, if by the Liberal Party is meant, as it usually considered the case nowadays, that portion of the body politic represented by the Right Hon. R. J. Seddon. For an example of exaggerated and indeed degrading cring ng lo the powers that be commend us to the “Liberal Herald.” We should imagine that even the Premier must feel something of disgust to see the professing organ of h^ 1 party devoting so much space to his own personality. Apart from this the journal contains a large quantity of useful and interesting matter suited to all tas'es, is neatly printed, and judging by the initial specimen it should achieve some success as a general purpose magazine. As a political organ we doubt its ability to live beyond election time.

At Wellington last w&Sk two wome? were sentenced to three months’ imprisonment for “ shop-lifting.” Change advertisements from Messrs Hill (dentist) arid O'Connor and Tyde mari ard lield over.

An interesting t'drirt ease is repioTted to be pending as a resilit df a Ideal impounding incident. During the past month stock impounded by the range!: was 10 horses and six cow.-, and by settlers iS cows and ig horses. A ranger’s lot, like that of a policeman, is evidently not a happy one. The local ranger complained last night to the council that when he was away for a few days there were, he was informed, a lot ut cattle about, but when he was home the stock were kept in; so that people apparently watched for him. He asked for permission to appoint his son to act In his stead when he was away. It was decided to allow the ranger to appoint a competent person if he chose to do so.
