THE DAY OF REST
ITS OBSERVANCE IN AUCKLAND. Auckland, February 0. The following paragraph from the Herald this morning illustrates the extent to which Sunday excursions are carried, and how they are commonly accepted occurrences. ''The weather yesterday was bright and fine, the heat being tempered by a fresh south-westerly breeze, and the various water excursions were largely attended. The Devonport Ferry Company ran their usual Sunday trips to St. Helier's Bay, Bangitoto, Motutapu, Howick, and Lake Takapuna, all being fairly well patronised. The usual large Sunday crowd journeyed to Devonport, Cheltenham Beach, appearing to bo a favorite resort. The excursion to Rivcrhead and to the fishing grounds also attracted a fair number. The Wakatere made an excursion, with about 300 Druids and their friends."
