MISS BA.LGARNIE IN WELLINGTON, j [Special to News.] j Wellington, May 5. The Opera Honse was packed ts j overflowing on Sunday r : ';, when Miss Florence Bilgarnio delivered a lecture on "Prohibition," the Chief Justice presiding.

The speiker appealed to the audieuce to use the power tbey possessed to remove the great ca'ife of crime and degradation at the polling-booth. Her colonial mission *ias hid a m'sfc \uspic'ous opening.
