POLITICAL CARTOON. MISCELLANEOUS ILLUSTRATIONS. Picttjbes of the big review of senior cadets on the Auckland Domain and the Government House fire are the features of to-day's issue -of the Auckland ; Weekly News. The former includes views of the march past, the inspection, cadets drawn up in companies, and the huge crowd of spectators. Several excellent illustrations of the j Government House fire appear. These depict the outbreak at its worst, the inmates of the building removing household goods, and General Sir lan Hamilton's room, in which the fire originated. The first hydroaeroplane imported into Australia is portrayed at rest on Sydney Harbour. It was in this machine that M. Guillaux rose to a height of 7000 ft, an Australian record. On Monday of last week, -General Hamilton inspected the senior, cadets of the Bay of Plenty at Rotprua. A panoramic view of this event occupies a place in the number. The continued erosion by the sea at Hokitika is responsible for two pictures, one showing a huge wave breaking over the outbuildings at the rear of the main street and at the other depicting the proximity of this ; street to.the sea A cartoon dealing with a recent political announcement * will be found amusing, and probably prophetic. A full-page picture represents a busy scene in a Nelson hopgarden. The most important of the many other subjects illustrated are General Sir lan Hamilton's visit to the Veteran's Home, the earthquake in Sicily, a motor accident at Waiwcra, cross-country runners leaving Onehunga, the Dominion's largest cheese factory, English spring fashions, a big catch of kingfish in the North, an Overseas, Club presentation, R.M.S. Ruahino in heavy weather, territorials in camp at Tapawera, a' new consumptive sanatorium in Cliristchurch,' arrest of a suffragette in London, schoolteachers undergoing, physical instruction, Dunedin's new Mayor, ! and a gathering of commercial travellers at Greymouth. Several portraits and other illustrations assist in making an exceptionally bright issue of; what is recognised throughout Australasia as being, the leading illustrated ■' weekly, newspaper in the colonies. : : '.
