WHERE WAS JOYCE?
TO THE EDITOR O? THE PRESS. Sir, —May I ask of what use is it our having a " Lord High Admiral/ living v our midac if his power i< not equal ta ' ' securing for the many thousands who visit Lyttelton on New Year's night a display of the search light from ELM.'a ship lying at . anchor in the inner harbour? I hays seen it noted in your, columns that ' on. various occasions he has orderee the cruiser on this station to pufcriu " an appearance at Akaroa, Ac.,- and: one would naturally suppose that the-indi-vidual who could accomplish this would' be equal to giving further instructions as to the display of the electric light.' Can it be j chat he had been informed that his .name would not appear in the New Year's - . *t Honours List," and in a fife.of chagrin ha determined not to give his consent. However, there is no denying the ftvot' that the display of fireworks was of iht -; tamest description, and will surely teli'it* 'V" own tale in reduced receipts so far as thy. railway is Concerned on New Year's night 1896.—1 am, &c., jj Disappointed,
