ALTERING THE CLOCK.
♦ NIUE ISLAND TRIES THE EXPERIMENT. Wellington, Last Night. Niue Island, by unanimous vote of the Island Council, adopted Daylight Saving, slates the secretary to Cook Islands Department, Air J. D. Gray, who returned to-day from Niue. The ordinance provides for the clock being put forward one hour on October Ist., and put back again on Alarcb 31. The island is thus the first portion of New- Zealand territory to introduce this practice. As a matter of fact the islanders always followed the daylight saving rule by rising with the sun.
