John Moorcock, whose parents reside at Hastwell, was to-day committed to the Lunatic Asylum, on the certificates of Drs Hosking and liutemcnt. It was generally remaked in Wellington yesterday, while the Maslerton school-children were trooping phrougli the streets, what a remarkably happy and hcallhy-looking lot tlicy were. Their general conduct 100, was very highly commented upon, and everywhere they were taken they behaved in a manner, which reflected great credil upon their teachers and guardians, Itis slated tliatfhc Wellington schools are to be treated lo an excursion shortly and will be brought up to llasterton. to fiet an insight into the country, The fish ponds, Maori pah.s, and various places of interest will be visited, and the Mastorton residents should endeavour to return the kindness of the Wellington people in their treatment of our children yesterday. It is estimated that considerably ovc £IOO was spent in Wellington yesterday by the excursionists, in the local shops, the fruit and lollie stalls especially doing a rattling trade. The (rain fares, although at such a nominal figure,amounted to nearly £1(X). The thanks of the excursionists are certainly due to MrW. Sellar, Secrclavy of the Maslerton School Committee, who remained in his ollice till eleven o'clock on Thursday evening, (o citable people to obtain railway tickets.

The Company has just erected one of Andrews anil Bcavcn'snewest designs of seed cleaners, and are prepared to clean rye-grass, cocksfoot, etc., at lowest current rales.

The programme of IhoHawera-Tulac-kara Athletic Society which will appear in our issue of Monday, is evidence of the rapid advance made in (lie hush districts. Only a year or two ago the settlement was scarcely started, " and to-day they arc able lo announce an excellent sports programme with about £SO in prize money. The sports take place on Monday, lSlli of March, and from the interest taken by the Committee of Management, should prove highly successful. A concert and dance in the new hall will couclude the day's amusement. "There is nothing succeeds like success" and the wonderful hold which the Jumbo Brand Baking Powder, of which Messrs J. Anderson and Co, Wellington, arc the proprietors, is a case in point. The instant success of the Jmnbo Brand Baking Powder is due to j the fact that it contains absolutely no deleterious substances, and to its remarkable eflic-iency whenever used. At the public cookery classes, recently held ill "Wellington by Miss Millington, no other baking powder was used, and the lccturess eloquently testified, quite unasked, as to its virtues. There arc many baking powders introduced yearly to the public of this colony, but few of them cau compete with that under notice.
