THE FUNERAL SALUTE.
I I q It is expected that an. artillery; Isalute of Kit guns will be fired .imul-f Itaueously at the various forts in New! f Zealand, probably on the day of llerl 'fMajc-ty's funeral. Captain McKenzie,! sofficer commanding the Permanent! fArtillery at North Shore, lias had! feverything in readiness to firer the"' Isalute since the news was first re-j geeived. As, however, the salute will] |be fired from the six-pounders it is! Inot likely that Aucklandcrs will hear) ||it. It is therefore suggested that, a! Isalute of 101 minute guns should be) Ijjfired from the Albert Park by the "A"j ■Battery of Artillery on the day of Her ■Majesty's funeral, or whatever date imay be fixed for the salute. f
