AUCKLAND SPECIAL.
IX MEMOUIAM. 'Special to Timms.| Auckland, last night. Yesterday being the seventh anniversary of the wreck of the Wairarapa, Hags on some of the ships were flying. IN J BRED CIIAMPI OX. The Irish champion hurdler lloseingrovc, injured whilst training recently, and now in Auckland hospital, is to be given a benefit by Dix’s Gaiety Company. WET AVIvAGGIE The cable published on Monday as Clement AVraggo's Antarctic disturbance '• Sychem,” led many unacquainted with that meteorologist’s vagaries to vainly search their dictionaries to discover what a sychem ” was. The name is not that of a particular kind of storm, but it is AVraggo's custom to name various atmospherical disturbances which lie discovers by a particular name for convenience in reference. There is no sign of an approaching storm here. Captain Edwin, at AVelliugton, scouts the idea of so serious a gale. He stated that there are two areas of low pressure in the Tasman Sea, one in the vicinity of Hobart, and the other near Lord Howe Island. These two storms will approach at an angle of 45 degrees, and will each diminish the other’s intensity. They will pass south of New Zealand ; when to the eastward southerly gales with low temperatures may be expected.
