Thomas Grey, .'!<>. married, with two children, while kitting rats in ;i hayloft owned by G. Cossil, of Tangiterorh, fell through" a trap r doov .on Monday evening. He died after admittance to tl;c Whangaroi Hospital. The body of ' Mr. ■ Harry Need horn .was found at Titirangi (Auckland) on Monday morning. The deceased had ■> bullet wound in his left temple, and a ;un was in-close proximity to the body ■vhen found. He had left bis resilience to go rabbit-shooting, and as he had not returned a party was formed snd a thorough search made. The circumstances point to an accident. The members of the House of Representatives have been'' favoured with topics of a resolution passed by the •'Now Zealand Federation League,'-' an Auckland body, which says it is going to offer "determined resistance" to any compulsory service that may be required in connection with the National Register. The league has revived one reply, at least, Mr. J. T. M. Hornsby (Wairarapa) having written "In view of what, has happened )! connection with this damnable war and the awful loss of life occasioned" the Allies through unpreparoducss, I should have, thought the voice of tlw blighter, who talks but won't fight. and who .is prepared to allow an aborn- , inable Power like Germany to become possessor of the civilised world, would have been hushed for ever.

Do you understand (are you so asinine as to fail t-j grasp?) that you and such as you are responsible for the greater part of the blood and tears already shed anc 1 that have still to be shed Shame upon you! Confess your wretched cowardice, and henceforth and forever hold your peace.''
