A mobof two thousand'sheep consigned by Messrs Bidwell Bros, to' tue 1 ■ Gear Meat Export Company were driven :: over the Rimutaka last Hunday, This la the largest number ot sheep ever takon over the hill at one time.'

An entertainment in aid of the choir fund at St, Matthew's Ohureh will be held on Friday, July 24th. 1 JMj' Travelling amusementoompaniea, with . perhaps the notorious,exception of cir> cuses, really carry very little hard 'oash out of the townships they visit, despite the popular opinion to the contrary; for as a matter of fact the'margin' between reoeipts and expenditure-expense! total .. up in a most obstinate manherjlt' is said—leaves little room for blear profit, fiad so however touch the management "• desires to accumulate capital, the major* ity of companies have to be' content to : pay their bills and depart in peace. It is encouraging, therefore, to meet with a theatrical organisation like the l)obson« Kennedy Company, at present here, who are able by their ability and meritorious popularity to considerably improve hpon . this usual experience, but. vrho; ab. tho; same time are benefiting Masterton to a ! material extent ty a substantial ex« pendit lire of their reserve fund in the provision of new, rich, and handsome dresses, appropriately • and fashionably; : made, at local establishments. The' Dobson-Keimedy people, indeed, do not ' stop at this, they make Masterton a kind of headquarters—nftdemD, starting place and everything else-in connection'®'' with their .tours through the Colony, Even when they want to get married : they postpone the auspicious event, as Mr Joe Kennedy did the other. day, and wait until they arrive at Masterton; and no doubt in due course other interesting professional and social incidents will follow in our midst, while we have the pleasure and advantage of being visited by this talented cottrit, To-night the Company makos its last appearance during the present season,' and we gladly bespeak for it the goneroui fatronage of our readers, Arrah-na» . ope, by Dion BoUclcault, will be pre* seated in its'entirety, including the "Seorotary Scone," in whioh.the dresses are said,to be something veiy .speoialj■': and whioh has always previously been Omitted from the versions'of the play given in Masterton. . .

Wo have visited the "Zoo" at four » o'clock, we liavo been onlookers at freo luncheons onnumerable, wd have anxl« ously speculated at denominational toafightsas co whether viands would over* oiime the hungry, or whether the 'tucker' (ailing to hold but, the struggling humtin element would arise vi6torioua,but hollow and empty; but never until yesI terday, when' we visited Messrs Chamborlain Eros', confectionery establish- ■ ment, did we see su.iV a scene of innocent joyous festivity as was thoro to be witnessed. That enterprising and kihd-hoarted firm, prompted by Mr and MraMander, who have charge of the 'baker; department, have, it seems, instituted an original idea, Tbiy have : invited the children of the Mssterton School, which is adjacent to the shop, to duily light supplementary rofresh ment, consisting of a cup of hot coffee and a bnn, which they Biipply at tho nominal charge of l|d. Fur twopence, youngsters who are inclined to " co it," can indulge in coffee and tiro buns, and many ofthem investthe extra half-penny and have a perfectly gorgeous feed. That the childron appreciate Messrs Chamberlain'a liberality, which, during the winter months, will be very "grateful and nourishing "—we quote Oaabury—is evidenoed by tho patronage they graciously oxtend. The first day the boon was introduced (last Monday) three childron mustered at twelve o'clock, next day there were eight, on Wednesday a score, and yesterday the number had increased to over sixty, and it was indeed a sight to see aB the eager, hungry throng rushed the shop, or, waitinn f° r 1 their chance to enter, flattened their little noses against tho plate glass win* dow panes. May they eat well, livo Ion?, and prosper, say we. This reminds us, by the way, of the hospitable schoolmaster at Norsewood, whom rumour accredits with supplying tke schoolchildren with tea anting winter for one penny a month I Bat he omits the buns; and then, too, this open-hearted gentleman must be a philanthropist pure and limple, and an unohatitable world often despises beneyolenoe of so extremely disinterested a nature: Alas, that it should bo so I Orders for tho following wonderful Bargain Parcels will rcoeivo prompt attention and the goods be duly forwarded to any ad dress, carriage paid, by' parcel post' on re ocipt of the amount in cheques, postal notes bank notes, or money orders, addressed to James smith, Te Aro Bouse, Wellington; Pabcil No I—Consists of dress length of mpniur Melton Cloth, in navy blae, 'mar* one,brown, grey, fawn, green or black, '2 yJs body lining, 4;ds skirt lining, 2 doz buttons lorasloh, 1 yard Velveteen for trim-, ming, print or gingham apron.
