ATHLETIC CHAMPIONSHIPS.
EARTHQUAKE RELIEF SPORTS MEETING AT THE DOMAIN. Tljo athletic carnival to take place at the Domain to-morrow promises to raise a substantial sum for the earthquako relief fund, and. favoured by fine weather, a good afternoon's sport should be witnessed.

The display takes place by permission of Commander Berthon and after the wonderful work rendered by tho Navy on the actual scene of the recent disaster this fuither effort should meet with a rousing reception.
