HAWERA.
[F RO.II OUR CO R UESI'OXDE X T , J BRANCH OFFICE OF THE MAIL , Monday Evening. The Choral Society received their new piano on Saturday. It is one of Ashcrberg’s tricord, and is pronounced by competent judges to bo a first-class instrument. It was purchased from Mr Collier, of Wanganui. The society intend to give their first concert some time next month, and are in constant rehearsal for the same. Of course it is not the Town Board’s duty to mend the road passing’through Hawera, it being, like Gynx’s baby, nobody’s child ; but I think they might, for the well-being of the town and the safety of its inhabitants, spend a pound in a cartload or two of gravel for that nasty hole near Mr Espagne’s house.
The opening cricket match of the season —eleven v. twenty-two—is to be pi ayeS. next Saturday, and is expected to be a close thing. Mr Thos. M. Fo}-, who until lately was in charge of the public works survey department here, intends to start business as surveyor and engineer.
