Business Changes m Wanganui.

For a tew weeks past there have been rumors that some changes\were about to be made m one or more business estab lishments iv Wanganui, but very few of the pubU|^snewjeiactly what was going to happen. iV We ate at liberty now to state exactly what the changes are and whom they will affect, Messri T. JD. Cummins, J. &'* SKarpe; and CM. Richards have entered into partnership as whoJeßale>;an"d retail *jtrocJßrßMand v dealersf urrdfer'the style of Cummins, Sharpejis&wCo. Having purchased the business hitherto carried on by Mr-F. j. Jones, they will commence operations there on ; the Ist .of April. It is needless for us to siy anything at the gentlimen who &t$ to" comprise the new firm ; they are all wall-lohown m "Wanganui, ' two of them hafvirlg been- engaged m business here for a, number of years. Tnat they M-ill give'satisfaction to their patrons m the future, as /they have done m the past, tfiere can be no doubt, arid with their two businesses; joined a good turnover should result. Special attention^ is to be paid to dairy customers, in -which line both; Messrs Cuuamina and Sharpe have had considerable experience. Town customers are. to be waited on twice weekly %x orders, oc more frequently if desired; and^co'untry orders will receive prompt and- careful attention Mr F. J. Jones, m retiring, has issued a circular to his customers, thanking them for past favors -aud commending the new firm to their, notice. It is, we believe, Mr Jones' intention to take up big residence m the country somewhere close to Wan-ganui.~-JJcroitf. \
