The ordinary monthly mooting e>C Ohinemnri Conntv Council will bo held at Paeroa this afternoon. Mr P, hereupon invite 1 ? tenders for extending the Phoenix low level tiinnel r Waiomngomait In our last issue We lvpcrrted on the various mining operations in pi ogress at Te Aroha, Wnioron^onui, and Ohinemnri. Since then nothing of special interest has transpired . "We have been loqupsted to announce that the Rev F. G Evan?, from Thames, will pi each as follows to-moirow : Waiolongomni, 11 a.m. ;Shaftcsbui v, 3 p.m. ; To Aioha, 7 p.m. We aie glad to learn that Rev Mr Evans has quite recovered from his recent indisposition . Mr Abraham Isaacs, of Okoi'oire, purpises applying at the annual meeting of the Te Aroha Licensing District, for a publicans license for a house known as the Hot Springs Hotel, Okoroire. At a meeeting of shareholders of the Union Gold Mining Company, held at Mr J, F. Clarkes office, Insurance Buildings, Auckland, on Tuesday last, Mr James Uussell presided, and there were ten shareholder piesent. The resolutions passed at th» meeting held on the sth Apri', re winding up the company, were confirmed, and, the company is now in liquidation. A foot race came off at Paei'oa on Wednesday last. The distance was one mile on the flat, the stake jCIO a side, between Wm, Hyde, TeAioha; and J. Casn, Paeroa, formerly of Thames. The race was run in Mr Cassells paddock, about 3.30 pin., quite a crowd aesemblin<r to witness thn event. Case went away with the lead, which he maintained for about half the distance, when Hyde, who apparently w.is quite content to occupy second pkee so far, drew up to his opponent, quickly passed him, and lapidly increasing the distance between them won with the greatest ease. Case piacticaDy gave in after running thiee quarteis of a mile The w inner was loudly cheered by (.he fip«ct,ttots. Seigeanl Ein^ison left Te Aroha for Tauranga on Thursday Hst, having been appointed to take charge of that district, pending the arrival of a successor to Inspector Goodall. We underhand that Inspector Goodall of the Wellington police distiict) is about to be transfei red from Tauranga to the Westland distiict, where he will relievo Trspeetor Emeison, with whom he exchanges stations. The road formation contract at Gordan Special Settlement, recently let by the Association to Mr Montague, is now well j advanced, and will probably be completed within u week or ten days, It consists of some 90 chains of by road formation, to connect Mr Yon Stunner's flax mill with *he mainG. S. S. road, and also* with the landing on the Wailmn river bank. We direct special attention to Mr A. W. Edward-s' new advertisement, announcing the airival of new autumn and winter goods in all departments. These goods include all the latest and most fashionable ladies j dress materials, j ickets, ulsters, etc., hats and bonnet-(both trimmed anduntrimmed), ■i magnificent selection of ribbons, etc*, .•md m m}* novelties The men's depait-* went will be found well stoiked in every line, with the newest goods, and in the boot and thoe department will be found goods to suit the Wants of alk In fact the i immense stock of new goods just opened up by Mr Edwards in his commodious premises are well worthy of inspection l . whilst p.'iees will be found remarkably low.
