Accident. — We regret to learn that a painful accident occurred on Monday afternoon to Mr. Wastney, of Wakapuaka, who, when engaged in working a. saw mill, allowed his left hand to come in contact with a circular saw which cut completely through one of the bones of the fore-finger severely lacerating two of the other fingers. Mr Wastney at once came into town -and on going to Dr. Cotterell it was found necessary to amputate the fore-finger, but it is hoped that the others may be saved. . Harmonic Society. — The usual quarterly concert will be given by this" Society at the Provincial HaU to-morrow evening. The first part will consist of Sterndalo Bennett's " May Queen," with instrumental accompaniments; the second part embraces a variety of miscellaneous music. We would remind the members that a full rehearsal is to be held at the Provincial Hall this evening. — "^"»"»— *— ■.™— »«"— p»^i— — «p»
