A -demonstration was given in a stable yard in .Tuam-street, Christchurch,, cf a. new fly-killer, the discovery of a local re'sident. A reporter who was present, was shown a large heap of manure in which it i?. known that flies lay their eggs. One-half of the heap was covered with sacking, and. when this was removed the heap was seen to be a mass of grubs and small flies*. It was literally alive. The o:her half of the heap had been treated with the liquid exterminator 24 hours previously, and millions of dend grubs and flies were to be seer. A stall of the stable which had als<"> been treated was practicailv clear cf flies, but there were little heaths of dead flies on the floor. It was stated that the flies were rea'.ly attracted by the liquid. It is the intention of these interested to' , make the stable clear of flies as a demonstration of the efficacy- cf their in- ( vention. The attention of the managers of the Hero Fund should be called, (observes a. New York contemporary) -to a certain instructor cf music at Chicago • (U.S.). There was brought to him a g' l who had beeti found bv the music teachers of her home town to fc-s- a musical geriius, lacking only a little expert train lng, they said. The Chicago professor, instead of accepting this verd.irjv and proceeding to turn the pupil* into a Jenny Lind, suspended judgment _ until he should have examined her proficiency. Then came hjs examination, and acLvired the girl's mother to take h?r daughter home and make a good cook find housewife of her. The ' 'insult" was promptly | rerented, although the money paid the instructor in advance was returned, he was threatened with legal proceedings for his unprecedented courre. That he was a hero of a new type, and should be rorogniaed as such, is self : evident.
