Invercargill, Last Night. A sharp shock of earthquake was felt at 12.55 to-day. Chkistchurch, Last Night. Mrs Alfred Saunders, wife of the exmember for Selwyn, who arrived in the colony in 1844, died yesterday, aged 69. Wanganui, Last Night. At Aramoho, one of the thriving suburbs of Wunganui, to-day, Mitchell's Aramoho Freezing Works were formally opened, making the second industry of the kind here. The gatheiing was very large, and representative of the commercial and pastoral interests of the district. Apologies were received from the Hon. the Premier and the Minister for Lauds. The new works bid fair to be successful, having sufficient stock in hand to keep going during the present season, with a promise of 50,000 sheep to start with next season.
