[OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Thames, Saturday. Last evening a Chinaman named James Kay was arrested for behaving in rather an eccentric manner, and appearing not to be responsible for his action. To-day he was brought up at the Police Court on a charge of lunacy, but on the evidence of Doctors Payne and Callan he was discharged. He was then charged vrit'a the larceny of a coat from the Empire Hotel, and at the request of the police was remanded till Wednesday next. Mrs. Hume intends holding a bazaar some evening during next week to dispose of a number of fancy and xiseful articles for the benefit of the Thames Hospital. This will probably be the last of this good lady's efforts on the part of the above institution, as she is about to leave for Melbourne, where she intends to permanently settle. [press association.] DtrsEDix, Saturday. The sale of Corporation leaseholds to-day was very successful, and tho bidding spirited. Only a few town sections were offered. Frontage to Manse-street realised 26s per foot.
