A Reefton telegram states that five ■ free labourers, who arrived by the evening train, were met by Union ofI ficrials at Stillwater, and induced to join the Union. It is stated that they were engaged to work at from 12s to 15s per diem in the "Keep it Dark" mine. Tihe Union is now standing by tho rien. The post-mo.rtoro examination of the body of Mr William Edward Mowhray, who was found de-ad at .his home at Oamam von Friday, disclosed remark ale bhysicol phenomena (says 1 the Ota&o Daily Times).

An agreement has been signed. cor Ting all matters in dispute, and the Magistrate has been informed that there n; 'l b" necessity for I the Court to deliver judgment in the case. "Is a pc-rambutator a veliicle?" I asked counsel in a by-law case heard in. the Magistrate's Court at Masterton yesterday. "I don't know about i+s being a vehicle." interjected the Magistrate, "but I do know that they would be bettor in the middle of tlie street than bumping up against people's legs on the footpaths." From all parts of North Ca.nterburv (says the Lyttelton Time*.-') vn-y satisfactory reports of the results of the lambing are coming to hand. Percen-t-aces of .130 to 150 are common, and higher ones are mentioned. For instance. on Mr V).

A woman walked into an hotel in Baltimore, recently, currying ;i baby which was struggling violently, and had every appearance uf crying, but, no .vottiid civ.no ironi it. The woman was advertising a baby silencer which she *ad invented, it consisted of a kind of gauze gag, which fits over the mouth of. the baby, and allows it to breathe freely, hut prevents any ci.\iitg being heard. 'I he invention has been designed (,< a y.s a. cable message to the Australian papers) with the object oi enabling .mothers to take their babies -to churches, matinee, or other entertainments l j Gri your piano where you can rely ,on quality and value. Hundreds of people are taking advantage of tho Dresden Piano Company's time payment system; and shipment upon shipment of pauos and organs is coming in month after month. "The Dresden," with years of experience, and a remark:) bio turnover, is ever able to sell the best goods at the lowest market rate. But it is not satisfied with merely aiuing a now customer; it aims at makin<~ another business friend—and usually does so. Now. with the Dresden Piano Co., Ltd, nbsolnte quality is guaranteed. Everv piano issued is perfect materia-1 and workmanship. This reputation is guarded most jealously. Where, for example, will you find better instruments than the Broadwood. the Lipp. the -Roniseh, and tho Steinway—they are indeed four great pianos! You should certainly either call or write to the Dresden | Piano Co.. Ltdi.. Wellington : or you could see their Local Representative —H. Inns, Daniell's Building Queen Street.
