The residence of the manager of the Colonial Bank at Ophir was completely destroyed by fire, the bank itself narrowly escaping. The body of a female infant was found in the Lower Harbour at Dunedin on Tuesday. It was seen floating by a child. The body was rather decomposed, but bore no marks of violence. As far as can be judged the infant had been born about six days. At the inquest the medical evidence was to the effect that the body was too decomposed to allow of a judgment being formed as to whether the child had lived. The coroner said that when an infant was found dead the law presumed that it was born deid unless there was proof of it having lived. An open verdict was returned. In the Supreme Court, Dunedin, on w ednesday, Mary S. R. Jones sought to recover £lB6 10s from F. W. R. Anderson, her solicitor, on the ground that it was wrongfully detained. Defendant, in addition to law costs, charged 6 per cent for obtaining two loans for plaintiff, the commission being divided between himself and the agent. The security offered was plaintiff’s life interest and that of her children in the Goodwood property. The income was £I2OO per annum, but other mortgages existed on it. Judgment was given for £145, the Judge remarking that the charges were improper, and that both commission and procuration should not be charged. Holloway’s Pills.— The Great Need.— The blood is the life, and on its purity depends om health, if not our existence. These Fills thoroughly oleanae this vital fluid from all contaminations, and by that power strengthen and invigorate the whole system, healthily stimulate sluggish organs, repress over-excited action, and establish order of circulation and secretion throughout every part of the body. The balsamic nature of Holloway’s Pills commends them to the favor of debilitated and nervous constitutions, which they soon resuscitate. They dislodge all obstructions, both in the bowels and elsewhere, and are, on that account, much sought after for promoting regularity of action in young females and delicate persons who are naturally weak, or who, from some cause, have become so. “ By a thorough knowledge of the natura j laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected Cocoa, Mr Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately-flavored beverage, which may save us many heavy doctor’s bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready to attack wherever there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame.”—See article in the Civil Service Gazette. Made simply with Boiling Water or Milk.
