Some misapprehension sjoms to haw arisen with icfeience to a paragiaph appealing in The Po*> relative to the puce of eggs. A firm «f produce auctioned s state thuA to quote 2s per dozen for eggs was incorrect, and that tlie ruling wholesale price todays is- Is 9d per dozen and Is lOd to 2a per dozen retail. The paragraph lefeired to did not stitte thai 2h per dozen was the market price yesterday, but that it had been paid ; an a matter of f,irt, no quotations of the price oi egg« vi*6trrJi>y was contained m the paragraph.

This afternoon thu damaged ferrysteamer Cobar was taken from the Feny Jetty and diawii Oil the Patent Slip for repairs. At a meeting this afternoon of contiibutor.s to the Wellington Home for the Aged Needy, the following weie elected trustees : — Messrs. VV. Allan, J. G. W. Aitken, T. W. M'Kenzie, G. Petherick, A. Lindsay, W. J. Helyer, H. C. DickeyBOil, Me-ndames Boxal' and H. P. Chap man. ilr. W. Allan was elected chairman. Tho director of the Wellington Technical School is preparing for the members of the governing board a return s-howing the tenders invited and accepted by tho beard for materials supplied to the school during the past four years. This information is being compiled in accordance with a resolution adopted by the boaid last week on the motion of Mr. Caimichael (one of the City Council's representatives on the board). At a meeting of the Balclutha branch of the Farmers' Union the following resolution was adopted, reports the Otago Daily Times :—" That the Rabbit Act having become obsolete and iiheless in thi6 tlißtrict, this meeting suggests that tho Government should either import or manufactuie wire netting and supply it to farmeis at tho least possible price, and that the Fencing Act be amended so as to provide that when a road divides two farms, failing an amicable arrangement being come to between the adjoining owners, tho owner wire-netting his pide of the road "may compel the other to pay interest on cost of same, similar to cases provided for in the Act where only one side of a load is fenced and is utilised by both ovnere." In the course of some discussion at th© Auckland Harbour Board meeting last week, about proceduie mostly, a fuw leferences were made to the fact that there has been constructed at Birkeuhead a very costly wharf. Mr. J. M. Kneen stated very succinctly his ideas about the case for or against th© wharf when he said : "Who over heard of erecting a wharf at a cost of £14,000 for 1600 people — a few strawberry growers? There's no back country over there — nothing at all except a lot of ti-tree and a few gumdiggers." Captain MacKenzio defended the action of the Bourd in spending the money, saying that it would do a great deal of good, which, however, ue did not itemise very fully. The discussion had by this time got a little beyond the scope of the question before the meeting, and lho chairman stopped it, remarking that the present board wan not to blame, if any blame was coming to anyone about the business, becau.se it had never sanctioned the expenditure. A meeting of those interested in the candidature of Mr. John Brodie for the Miramar Mayoralty, will be held tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock.
