RAILW AY TIME-TABLES.

This is a matter affecting not only the districts immediately interested, but also the wholo of the travelling ■public^ and it is one that cannot be shelved indefinitely without protest. We hope that tho Minister of ' Railways" tvill /not allow reasonable requests for reform' ■. to be retarded merely because of tho .temporary inconvenience which the proposed alteration in arrangements would cause to tho Tite Barnacles of the Admin istratiom:— Wellington "Times*" A CHALLENGE. We suggest that in order to satisfy , , tho Christchurch public, Bailey ant his 'friends take any'ene of his l< ap : porjts ' ' that- he. has already produced and lodge it under seal with Inspector Gillies at the police station, which is a stone 's throw from the Spiritualist Church". Twa .of the - "apports'? produced at Wellington ■ were -a cocoanut mat alleged to be from Samoa,, and a Boinan coin or denarius v from somewhere in Europe. Either -will do.'fbr the tost we profess. If they have been dematerialised once, it ought to be all the easier to do it again, and in this way Bailey will bo vindicated. We have not much hope ■Of the challenge being accepted, but still wo desire to give the. medium a fair . chance to put himself right with tho public. If ho disdains to accept, thbn the public can draw their own conclusions. — Christchurch "News." • -
