The police are investigating the matter, but nothing has been discovered to lead them to suspect that there has been suicide. No tracks from the spot to the beach can be traced. We understand (says the ‘ Wakatip Mail’) that the privilege of free passage on the Lake Wakatipu steamers, which was granted by the late company to the ministers of religiigi residing in Queenstown and Arrowtuwn, uud which has since b&en given from year to year by the Minister of Railways, has been again extended till further notice. The Rescue Lodge, 1.0. G.T., held their second anniversary concert in the Town Hall, South Dunedin, the Rev. T. Trcstrail being in the chair. In the course of his remarks the Chairman congratulated the lodge on their good work in the past, and expressed the nope that they would remain together long enough to see the total abolition of licensed liquor bars. The following contributed to the programme: Duet, Misses Dalziel; recitations. Miss Barton and Miss B. South; songs, Mr O. Firkins, Mr A. King (eicored), Miss Edwards, Mr Duff (encored), and Mr W. Johnston (encored). The Burrows Orchestra played two items during the evening. I,h e concluding item was a humorous dialogue entitled ‘My Lord Tonkins,’ in which Misses A. Barton, E. Simpson, and S. Simpson and Messrs Aitcheson, A. Gain, A. Templeton, and W. Thomson took part. On the motion of the C.T. (Bro. Hilton) the audience accorded the performers a hearty vote of tlianks. Some time ago the Otago Typographical Union agreed to show their "appreciation of the work in which the Reserves Conservation Society are engaged by raising a subscription among their members and others engaged in the printing trade, who were asked to contribute one shilling each. The result of their very thoughtful action is that Mr A. Bathgate, secretary of the Reserves Conservation Society, to-day received the sum of £8 12s from Mr A. Walker '(secretary of the Typographical Union). Other bodies might very well follow the example of this organisation by contributing to so deserving a body as the Reserves Conservation Society, who have done so much in the way of beautifying tho City and surroundings. This is the second donation that "has been received by Mr Bathgate through the same source.
