Zoological Gardens are projected for Wellington. A scheme is suggested for electric tramways in New Plymouth, to run from Fitzroy to the breakwater. It was referred to at the Borough Council meeting, but no proposal was made in writing, find thereiov?. no action was taken. The Kfe-savmg" competitions in connection with tiie swimming classes of Hawera District High School commenced on Monday afternoon, when twenty-four boys competed. This afternoon about twenty girls will compete. The complete list of prize-takers ought to be available to-mor-row. T«vo of the Eltham road rate cases, in which the Taranaki County Council sued for recovery of special rates, came before the S.M. at New Plymouth on Mon day (says the Taranaki News), tho defendants being Georg-e Cross and James Pill, of Opunake. Mr Roy appeared for the Council, and Mr Barton (Hawera) for the defendants. The legal aspect will be argued at a future date. Maori relics continue to be found, although one would imagine that in an exposed place like the sandhills at Opua. near Opunake. all that were to be unearthed would have been found long before tliis. However, some weeks ago a boy walking over the hills found, lying. quite exposed, an old Maori greenstone axe and several other interesting articles. Many interesting finds have been made on these hifts, which are about three miles from Opu nake, and witMn a very short distance of the old racecourse. Cooper street is at present a scene of industrial activity. Under the direction of Mr Tom Parkinson workmen have fallen trees which impeded the road,_and the large number of enquirers who wisK to see "'•how the new road will run" are now able to gratify their desire. With the encouraging^prospectßi of _ this , district "town allotments should,- increase in value, and it is anticipated thai bidding" will' be brisk to-morrow afternoon, when the building allotments into which Mr F. S. Cooper's property has; been cut up will be sold.

In c.very respect save one the' entertainment was deKghtful; its perfection was spojled by the lack of dfrehestral music. The comedy has a very ingenious plot and is crowded with "situations."
