A lady from Shannon who was visiting Levin on Wednesday, had the misfortune to drop her handbag, contained some £2O in money as well as other articles. The bag was later found in flic gravel pit in Oxford Street, but the money was missing. The matter has been placed in the hands of the police.

It was reported at Saturday’s meeting of the ManawatU provincial executive of the NeAv Zealand Farmers’ Union that the Rangiotu bridge, the scene of the-recent motoring-fatality, had been repaired, the wings on both sides having been considerably strengthened by the inclusion of iron rails, which had been painted white. The repairs were considered likely to prove highly satisfactory.
