A lady witness at the Wanganui Supreme Court stated that when she went with her husband to inspect a farm at Wostmere, her husband asked where the pig sty was. The owner of the farm replied that a previous occupant of the farm did not require a pig sty, as ho had kept the pigs in the dairy. Under a new arrangement members of the Legislature will in future have passes for the Lyttelton Ferry service and between Wellington and Pieton instead of orders as previously. The passes will remain the property of the holders so long as they remain members of the legislature. Albert Ayling, a steward, when charged with tho theft of a bicycle at Wellington yesterday put up the defence that ho was not guilty as ho did not actually commit tho offence. The facts were that another man actually stole tho machine and asked the accused to pawn it. Accused kept guard while the theft was committed. Ayling was before tho Court last week when ho got three months for the theft of a ring from a package of stolen jewellery ho was minding for a friend. He will now servo an additional month.
