The members of the Wellington City Council appointed to visit the Corporation Reserve arrived in Masterton by special train to-day en route for the Forty Mile Bush. They left Neill's stables by coach fl by Mr W. W. McCardle, for Mangaone. Their visit will last probably for four days. The Majteyton {library Committee are apparently somewhat inexperienced. They sent money to a London firm to purchase new books and have received in return a very unsatisfactory consignment. A few years ago a similar order was sent to the same firm from Greyto wn with precisely .imilar results It is strange that such a blunder should have been repeated. Our Carterton contemporary referring to our remark on the late fray at the Salvation Army meeting, writes as follows : "It is true that the policeman was present, bqthe acted in our opinion with good judgement, as it was impossible for him to do anything singlehanded amidst such a set of roughs. In fact he was not called on to render assistance, as it was intended to take the course which has since been judiciously adopted." It is quite evident from what our contemporary says that there is not sufficient police control in Carterton. The Rev. Van Staveren is authorised by the Chief Rabbi, in London, Dr Adler, to send home frozen meat as an experiment and l£ tons of roasting beef will be despatched by the Aorangi. The Rev. Mr Van Stavelin is the only person in the Australasian colonies as yet authorised to make such shipments on behalf of the Jewish community of London. We learn from the Jewish World that two persons are to come from London to Wellington for the purpose of superintending the export of frozen meat for the Jews in Lon. don, who number from 30,000 to 40,000-

Lowes and lorns conduct some important sales at their rooms to-morrow. At 1 o'clock they sell the rights and privileges at the Tinui race meeting. At 2 o'clock they sell land, embracing a dairy farm at Clareville, containing 192 acres, for the the estate of H. T. R. Owen, deceased ; also business premises in Queen-street, Masterton, at present occupied by Messrs Wickerson and Wagland; also, several building allotments at Clareville. At 2.30 they sell an extensive catalogue of new and second hand furniture and household requisites and finish up with a splendid assortment of watches, jewelery, and plated ware, for the the Sydney Goldsmith Hall Company. After the ordinary business of the Waste Lands Board had been disposed of yesterday morning, Mr McCardle, one of the members, said that for the last ten years he had advocated the principle of special settlements. As far back as 1876 he advocated such a course because he was sure in his own mind it was the best way to ensure the settlement of the Waste Lands of the colony. In his position as a member of the Waste Lands Board and a member of a special settlement association he felt himself in a rather awkward position, and no matter what memi bers might think of his remarks in urging these settlements he assured the Board that his motive was pnrely of a, disinterested character, and that he attended the Board's meetings at a loss to himself. Mr Bunny observed that anything he had said on the subject of special settlements was not intended to have been at all of a personal character. If Parliament neglected its duty in not dealing with the question next session he would assist Mr McCardle or any other man in forming these special settlements, but at the same time he thought it was a wrong way of dealing with the waste lands of the colony. The chairman said he did not think were was anything incompatible in a member of a special settlement association having a seat on the Waste Tamil Board, Mr Beetham held a similar view to that expressed by the chairman. The matter then dropped. Evening Press. Lovely climbs—There are lovely climes and places in which the evening zephyrs are loaded with malaria and the poison of fever and epidemics.

A constable who saw the collision took the names of the men for the purpose of summonsing them for a breach of the byelaws.
