A3 an exompliuation of ths faith posisaied by the Oimara people in the ultimate success ot its waterworks scheme, we record the gratify in:: fact that Mr. John Hardy. C.R., m anticipation ot the coming water supply —is about to send an iolcitt home to tnj'lMd for one of thoae v«ry useful, anil at the same time comparatively inexpensive, engines—hvdraafic motors. It is intended to be erected in the new grain store now tmos? built at the corner of Clyde and I Humbet-Jtrevti. the lease ot which has b«eo taken for a term of years by Mr. Edwin Hardy. "We heartily congratulate Mr. Hardy upon" his enterprise, ami we trust that by the next grain season we shall be (.ailed "upon to take a part in the pleasing curemony of christening the pioneer motor of North Otago. The Canterbury cricketers have at last achieve! a grand victory in Melbourne, ■having defeated the East Melbourne team with ten wickets to s|iare. The defeated ehib is one of the strongest in the metropolis of Victoria, indeed with the exception perhaps of that ot' South Melbourne, it is. we believe, the strongest Club in Victoria. The defeated team included two of the .Australian Eleven, Messrs. Horan and I Joy le, besides many other well-known players : but they tailed I Ef> m.ikc a stand against the I 'anterbtiry bowling. The score in the first innings-of the East Melbourne team was IS-S, of which • Joldsmith made -14, Trapp 3S, Croube 25. i Dotison -I. and Albe til. Lee was the moat sritcelVfrtl Itowlnr for Canterbury. In their innings the team were even less stteeessfttl. the total being 1 SO. Boyle contributing 40. Mu*gravc •'!'{, Horan "29, ami Alice 25. \V. Frith obtained six wickets for ! and Ashby three for 40. The batting of | the Canterbury eleven, according to the report of the Lvttelton Times, from which we glean these jKirifeulars, was grand. They knocked the bowling about in every direction. the splendid total of 270 being obtained before they were disjwsed of. W. Frith was the highest scorer with 50, and then followed Xetlson with 48, Ollivier 'XI, Lee 20, Ashbv 25. and Fuller 23. On entering upon their second innings the Canterbury men required !)'.»to win. and Ashby and Ollivier were sent in. In -V> minutes they had ]iut together i the required number. and the match was won I with ten wickets to win (? spare.) \V«- understand that Mr. Henry Varley, the evangelist, who is, as our readers are aware, at" present ill Christehurch, will con- j duet services in Oamaru for several nights nest Week. Further |>artieu!ars will probably be advertised to-morrow.

At a meeting oE the Oamaru Racecourse Trust held on Tuesday, it was decided to ji'rant a stiin of I-TO to the North Otago Turf I'lttb for having effected improvements in the saddling paddock.

Lovers of amrtsemetrt will be pleased t>> notice by an advertisement which appears in another portion of the present issue, that Oantara is to receive a visit from the Kelly and Leon .Minstrels. The company are tinder the management of Messrs. Hiseoeka and llayman, who successfully piloted Madame Tasea through the Colony, the ottly places remaining to be called a prior to'titking their departure for Melbourne being Oamaru and Timarti. In every place they have met with the utmost success, but more especially so in Dttntdin and Christehuivft. The press Itas Imx-ii loud in their prni-e*. the female impersoiKitioii.- of "the nitty !."on" I et':g sjioken of as really wonderful, and it would appear that treat is tt« store for all who patronise the Volunteer f fall dttritts; their short stay.
