Last night the noise ■ of the surplus downfall was most incea- ■ sant and annoying to the entertainer and his audienco. At the tug-of-war in 'Wellington last night the Scandinavians beat the Scotchmen after a most desperate struggle. Tho Irishmen did not meet tho New Zea« landetfos arranged, tho former refusing to pull three nights in succession. The following is the drawing for to-night New Zealand v Irish, English v Ohinese, Scandinavians v Australians, Maoris v AllCumera. On Saturday evening next an exhibition of wrestling will be given in the Theatre Royal, when Simeon of Master* ' ton will meet Robert Mumby, the Champion of Taranaki and the Waikato. The match will bo a genuine one for £lO a side ' ' At the meeting of the North Wairaraps Benevolent Society this morning one of the Trustees pertinently remarked that a man must be intensely selfishiinean and low, who allowed his wife at|ijptoily to receive charitable aid or starve while he < yet found money to smoke and get beer., i Such subjects were not desetving of I charity', and the Society was not con« stituted for the purpose of finding lazy ( people in tobacco or the means of getting it.

Greytown Hospital Ball to-morrow night . are in groat demand and it* being freoly indulged in, This iaFeyery ' way a compliment to the attractions of B the dance, and as there is more than eno " way of getting there, few who wish to go B will be precluded from 11 chipping in." At 3, W there is the train; at 330 p.m, b the ordinary daily brake leaves Masterf ton; and at fivo o'clock a dashing "four* f in-hand" coaoh, privately engaged, is to set forth under tho skilful guidance oi an i accomplished amateur " whip", of re* * pute and renown, whose .record hw s hitherto been unbroken and whoso glory i up to now is one of undimmed lustre, 3 • j Tho bankruptcy of Joseph and Emma p Ingley, which came up in the Masterton District Court ,thij morning, is highly interesting, though certainly comph« cated, About two years at;o the declsr* ation of insolvency was filed, and at nearly overy sitting ot tho Court since* , '.hen tho matter has cropped up, nntj now the Judge lumself cannot compre* hend the position of affairs, On December 18th, 1890, the publio exam* lnaiion of the two bankrupts was declared closed and the parties were ordered to come up for their discharge on March 26th. For some reason or other tho application was not again mado until December last, when Mr Acteaon | appearodfor tho bankrupts andWtied for their discharge, Mr that no notice had been given the ' creditors that the discharge would bo > asked for. His Honor then adjourned 8 tho application till this morning, and r ordered the bankrupt to give notice by 0 postcard to the whole of his creditors to 1 this effect, .This was done, but to»day a fresh difficulty arose when counsel,»■ 8 for some of the creditors stated e that the bankruptcy had not been de< 1 elated closed,'. The books of the Court 1 were turned up, but no record of the notwithstanding that the solicitor lirtife ' bankrupts stated ha received notice from the Clerk ot the Court that it wbb closed, ? and advertised accordingly. The matter ' is now 88 far advanced as it was two e years ago. The creditors have got very e little from the estate, and are not likely 0 io make much by prolonging tho agony, e If things progress as they have been tha 0 valuable time of the Court will be ocou* j pied with the case for the next ten years, J _ • ' ■ ' The.ollowingconversation was overheard ■ in the stieet the ether day, but for obviouß r reasons we shall, omit the name of one , of the parties! the other was the well known e draper, Mr L.
