THE Evening Star. PUBLISHED DAILY AT FOUR O'CLOCK P.M. Resurrexi TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1881.
Me Lawless this day received a circular from Mr F. Stevens, Secretary of the New Zealand Rifle Association, stating that the Union S.S. Co. hare agreed to convey members of the Association from all ports at which their steamers call to Nelson and back for return tickets at single fares, but each competitor must produce to the company's agents the usual certificate (as heretofore) showing that he is a member of the Association, and is proceeding to Nelson to take part in the competition. The letter also stated that as all the tents used at the camp last year were required for service in the North Island, they are not consequently available, and the teams would therefore have to take their own tents.
The man who said that the temperance party was going to rise like " a giant refreshed with wine" was rather unfortunate in his choice of simile.
Observing men have noticed that the hair on the forehead of a chimpanzee is always parted in the middle.
