The meeting of the Sub-Union to-night is an important one, and should be fully attended. Mr P. S. Garvey, GaoleT of the Wellington Prison and Probationer Officer for the city, died on Saturday last after a short illness. The ordinary bi-weekly Band Assembly will be extended to-mor-row evening to a long-night, and thus lovers of dance are in for a busy time. Refreshments will be provided. You will note in an advertisement over leader that Messrs Watchorn, Stiles and Co., are still throwing out further bargains, as the firm are determined to clear the whole of the stock. Empty fixtures must be achieved at any cost, rather than have goods damaged by the alterations to the premises which are about to take place. We have to acknowledge receipt of the report and balance-sheet of the Palmerston North Hospital and Charitable Aid Board for the past year. At the commencement of the year, ist April 1905, there were 22 patients in the hospital; and during the twelve months 380 fresh patients were admitted. Of the total of 402, 332 were discharged, while 34 deaths occurred, thus leaving 36 in the hospital at the close of the year, 31st March, 1906, The balance of the Hospital account at the end of the year was 4s 3d, the Charitable Aid account. £196 11$.

The tope works employees hold a social and dance on Friday week next at the Public Hall. We understand Mr Bert. Austin has purchased Mr Bill Dudson’s farm at Moutoa. We are pleased to record that Mr Fred. Wright’s health has taken a turn for the better this last few days. The High Commissioner cables: —“Hemp market very firm, and there has been an exceptional demand ; market prospects are favourable; g.f.a.q. Wellington on spot is worth and OctoberDecember shipments 10s per ton; stocks on hand are 655 tons against 2907 held in corresponding period last year. When argument was advanced last night at Council meeting for keeping the Borough lamp in position opposite the Public Hall, that near the said lamp a large pool of water collected in rainy weather, Cr Coley got one home on the complainants from Coley street by remarking : “Yes, there is more water, near that lamp than I can find in Coley street.” But perhaps both places want attention. Perhaps last night’s meeting of the Foxton Borough Council was one of the shortest on record for a general monthly. As early as nine o’clock, members of the civic body were turning their finger nails over wondering what to do. Eventually, Cr Baker revived the question of the need of more J.’s P. for Foxton, and after the passing of the following resolution, Council adjourned about 9.10 p.m.:— Proposed by Cr Baker, seconded by Cr Moore, “ That Council take i a determined step in pushing the urgent need of at least four new J.’s P., and that the Chamber of Commerce, present Justices, lawyers and Police be asked to unite in sending; application and that His Worship the Mayor and Crs Frankland and Moore be a committee to attend this matter.” Carried. At the Council meeting last evening, the following letter was read from Mr E. J. Armstrong to the Council ‘ ‘ Knowing that you and the members of your Council have the advancement and prosperity of your Borough and port at heart, I make the offer in the friendly spirit that actuated my remarks the other evening to go further. Should your Council, or any member thereof be desirous of advocating any public work of which possess only the Academic knowledge, I shall be pleased to make an investigation and supply report and data thereon so that whosoever may demonstrate to the public the advantages of the work shall have the facts and figures in his possession or essential for successful advocacy.” Little comment was made on the contents, and the letter was received. The petty thief is at large. A local resident had his top-coat removed the other eve from the pas-sage-way of a local hostelry, whilst the rightful owner was partaking of tea. Another complains of losing his head-gear in the same manner, while two similar cases of hat lifting occurred at a Palmerston hotel on Saturday last. Mistakes are made at times, but the pilferer is on the warpath, and. it is just as well to beware of him. News was received in town yesterday of the death at Palmerston North Hospital of Mr Thos. Foreman, who was for some time engaged by Levin and Co. on the Manawatu river fleet. Latterly deceased has been employed by Mr B. Spelman, and it is said caught a chill a little over a week ago, the effects of which compelled him to take to his bed. A few days ago he was removed to Palmerston North Hospital, where he died on Sunday.
