To narrowly escape serious injury was the good'fortune of a cyclist who was knocked over by a motor-car in Jervois Quay yesterday afternoon. It appears that 'the car unexpectedly swerved around a corner and ran into the cycle. The cyclist was thrown to the ground, but apart from'a bruised leg and a cut lip, escaped injury. The back wheel of the cycle was severely damaged, and the handle-bars were bent.
The Postal authorities have received cabled advice that the mails which loft Auckland on February 12, via Vancouver, arrived in London on March 15. To-morrow, Friday, and Saturday, the boys of St. Andrew's College, Christchurch, will visit Scots College for the purpose of meeting the Scots teams in cricket and tennis.' They will arrive by boat this morning, and leave again for Christchurch on Saturday evening.
