Constable J. O’Donovan, Court orderly at the Wellington Magistrate’s Court, has been tiansferred at his own request to Stratford, where he will be in charge of 'the station vacant by the recent death of Constable Leahy. Constable O’Donovan Las been in the police force since 1879, and ■during the greater part of that time has been stationed at Wellington. His unfailing courtesy and strict attention to his ■duties have earned for him the respect of his superior officers, and the esteem of all those with whom he was brought in contact, and his departure .will be regretted by a very large number of the public. We wish him all prosperity in his new sphere of labour. The duties of Court orderly will, for the present, we understand, be carried out by Constable M. Foley. The Hawke’s Bay saw - millers have formed themselves into an association for the purpose of promoting the success of the trial shipment of timber which the Government have undertaken to send to England.

He is now waiting a reply from the Minister in charge of the department (Hon Mr Ward), to whom the Secretary has telegraphed.
