- Mr Park the telegraphist with his customary good nature completed his telephonic recital last eveqing, by pxpjajning its mysteries, to about one hundred children from the public school, at thp same time showing them the wonders of telegraphy and initiating them in the phenomena of electric sparks and gal> yanic shocks, Tho juveniles were im : . mensely interested and highly delighted, and their behaviour throughout was most exemplary i Mr T. 6. Mason, Pharmaceutical Chemist, Medical Hall, Masterton,-directs tlfe attention of the residents of the the Wairarapa to his special preparations which daring the last four years havfj been found thoroughly efficacious by those who have tried thorn. They include) Iriah Moss Pectoral lor folds, Quinine and Steel wine for debility and weak digestions, Podophyln and other pills and many other remedies which have made this establishment so well known, Professor Eraser, the phrenologist, had a full attendance at the Town Hall last evening to listen to his lecture on human science, The subject was handled with great Bkill, and the audience were.kept both amused and instructed throughout the address, its only fault being, perhaps, its shortness. The lecture was illustrated by nurjiffous diagrams, and the' professor's imitation of wajks, hand shaking, &c., ■ WSfe wonderfully real, and drew forth loud applause. At the conclusion four well-known residents (Messrs McGregor, MpCnrdle, Cole, and T, H, Wrigley) were nominated to Ijavp their characters sketched, and Mr Fraser, standing down among the audienoe gave an outline of tjie nature of each from where they sat on the stage, and, on the whole, his delineations were remarkably correct, as was testified by the frequent applause of the spectators. The former was stated to have great energy and force of character, to be practical-and cautious, would make an excellent farmer. No. 2 was a man not fond of continuous hard work, but who coujd corapet himself, if necessary, to work for a number of hours continuously. He was,.practical, and on any subject being mooted his first query' would be! "Isit of any use ?" He was firm .and persevering, more inclined to look after his own business than other people's, but at some future time, when his position, was assured* and they wanted a tjood member of Parliament of a persevering, practical kind, this would be the very man for them. Mr Cole was a genial, hospitable, and obliging charaoter, sensible, slow-thinking, but very careful, and very sure; fond of ladies and chil. dren, liked a good dinner, himself and liked, to see others eating one. '■ His character was firm and sturdy, and his constitution strong. The delineation.of Mr Wrigley's character was the greatest hit. He was stated to be active, energetic, and speculative, fond of mirth, theatricals, and lively company. Not very strong, not very deep, but full of life and elasticity. The various. sketches were extremely well received both by the audience and the subjects, The professor lectures again this evening, his subjeot being the " Living Temple," when we hope to see another good house.; /
