FJIRBMENDOUS EXCITEMENT WONDERFUL DISCOVERY. £2,000,000 IN SIGHT, And the—only knows what’s to follow “ OUR OWN ” well to the front, and Rodgers Bros.’ joint heirs in the Estate. As soon as this wonderful discovery was made known, great excitement prevailed in Tay street, at Rodgers Bros.’ shop, large numbers of people calling to congratulate the Firm upon their good fortune. The general manager said he reciprocated the many kind wishes expressed by those present, for this was indeed a time for mutual congratulations. He would at the same time, on behalf of the Firm, tender their best thanks for the very liberal support accorded to them. Of course they had, in a measure, to thank “ THEIR OWN,” who had set things humming a bit, and who was in this instance the Lucky Prospector of the race he was now xrutting in at Wellington, which they all hoped would pan out as well as the original prospi ct, for no one doubted that the discovery was made most opportune. Here three hearty cheers were given for “ OUR OWN,” everyone wishing him great success in the development of his race. Before dispersing, one of the Firm drew the attention of those present to the fact that he was always at the Railway Bookstall, and although they could not advertise all the New Books, he would like them to bear in mind that the stock was now very large, and that he would at any time be pleased to show them all the best New and Old Books •as advertised throughout the world. The latest Native production was “ Utu,” which would be read by billions. He also desired it still better known that his Firm were the agents for the Australasian, Australian Journal, Bulletin, Town and Country, Sportsman, Sydney Mail, and many other Newspapers and Magazines.
