CARTERTON.
(From Our Own Correspondent.) Thursday. The local members of the fire brigade last evening tendered a "social” to the ladies who helped at the recent bazaar. Quite an enjoyable evening was spent, and altogether the function was a great success. A "social” was also held in connection with tho reopening of the Mutual Improvement Society, and this also was well attended. Martinborough has been visited by a millionaire deer-stalker, who, it is said, had good luck stalking. He made an offer of .£IOO for n doer-head, but the owner asked £l2O. The millionaire then withdrew the offer of £IOO, and left the owner lamenting. Tho visitor, however, was very liberal, and besides paying his guides extremely well, made several presentations before leaving the district.
