The monthly meeting of the Wellington Art Club was held last week, when a number of subject sketches, "Sea Beach and Waves," were exhibited. A 'model was posed, and 10 members practised for about an hour. The members wished bon voyage to Dr Fell, one of the most enthusiastic members of the Club, who leaves for England to-day, Dr Fell, in reply, said he would do his best to bring back with him examples of the best modern art. Two industrious young men, rather than wait about town for employment, wended their way to Trentham yesterday and gathered up thirteen sackfuls of cartridge cases used by riflemen firing at the Rifle Association Meeting. The thirteen packages weighed a ton all but a few pounds. The enterprising prospectors realised about £l2 by the sale of the cases for old brass.
