I Pira Band—The Ashburton County Pipe I Band paraded 'on the Domain oval last evening and spent over an hour in practising—under Pipe-Major W. Pearson—tbe marching drill for the Pipe Band contest to be held in Christehuroh at New Tear time. " Put YouKSELir in his Place."—" There are occasions when one wishes he had not spoken," was the comment of a farmer at the Ashburton stock market yesterday. He had been gazing at a lot of store sheep, and their appearance prompted him to remark to the man next him on the rail that " they were frightful * cag-mag' for any man to send in to the market." " What would you do with them if they were yours 1" asked the other. " Oh, I'd sell 'em," replied the first speaker. "Well, that's what I've been trying to do," came the remark from a disconsolate - looking individual, as, the auctioneer having passed the sheep in, he moved along with the crowd to the next pen. The shade temperature at 3 o'clock this afternoon was 77.5 degrees.
