A visit to the gannet sanctuary at Capo Kidnappers by a representative of the Sanctuary Board was made last week. The birds appear to be late this year with the. hatching of the eggs, and "it will be probably another two weeks’ time before permits to visit the sanctuary can be issued: Visitors will now be able to make use of the emergency track if the state of the tide will not permit of walking round the end of the rocks at. the back reef. A ladder has been erected at this place and the track marked out with indication fingerposts. This was a much-needed, improvement, and it now makes it possible for visitors to get to the cape at any stage of the tide. —Daily Telegrapn, Napier. After a sea voyage of IS miles, about five of the huts which were washed away from near the mouth of the W!7imakariri during the flood, have landed at the beach at Leithfield. They are considerably damaged. The landing was made on Monday afternoon; at least, that was when their presence was noted at Leithfield.
