CHRISTCHURCH, September 3.
Last night the wife of George Kinley, cattle dealer, Rangiora, committed suicide. She was missed between six and seven o’clock in the evening and searched lor without avail. At seven o’clock this morning she was found suspended by the neck with her apron to an apple tree in the garden, some distance from the house. Life was extinct, and as her feet were on the ground, death must have resulted from strangulation. In the Supreme Court, in the case M‘Donald v. the Mandeville and Rangiora Road Board, which has occupied the Court for some time, the jury found a verdict for the defendants.
The cycling season opened to-day by a parade of eighty machines, of which sixtyfour formed a procession to Sumner. A howling nor’-wester prevented the affair being a greater success.
