In our report of the funeral of Father Forest, an allusion at the grave by Father Grogan, to Dr Spencer's unremitting care of the deceased clergyman during his last illness, was by mistake left out.

The Athenaeum committee are considering arrangements for holding an industrial exhibition in Napier, about the end of December. The exhibition will be for the purpose of raising funds for the establishment of an art gallery, and of technical classes for the youth of the district. Suoh an object deserves the greatest possible support, and it is to be hoped the efforts of the committee will be completely successful. The Clive-square improvement committee was to have held a meeting last Thursday evening, but owing to several attractions in other ways there were not sufficient members present, and it was deemed advisable to postpone taking definite aotion. The adjourned meeting will be held at the Garrison Band room this evening at 8 o'clock, when the time and place for holding the proposed fair will be brought under consideration. The performance by he Marionette Company at, the Theatre Boyal last evening attracted a ■ good audience, when the programme of the preceding night was repeated. The performance went briskly throughout, and was much applauded. There will be a matinee performance., this afternoon for. schools and children, when the theatre is sure to be crowded with delighted youngsters. The la9t performance in Napier by the oompany will be given this evening, and thoso who have not yet seen this entertainment will do well to pay a visit to the theatre. The Marionettes will appear at Waipawa on Monday and Tuesday evenings. The opening of the boating season to-day will be inaugurated by a grand procession of boats, and by a aeries of rowing matches.
