LOCAL AND GENERAL.

Mr Brindloy, manager of the State Fire Insurance Department, is making good progress with Hio work of preparing for active operations. He has lately been in Auckland and Taranaki arranging for agencies. After completing arrangements in the North Island (says the Wellington Post) he will leave for the south on a similar errand. All the printed matter necessrry for the business of the department has been prepared, and the appointments to the s-taff will bo considered by Cabinet in a few days. It 13 expected that the offices of the department will be opened for business early in August.

Mrs TJishop, a young married woman living at Black Range, near Albury, New South Wales, had a sensational experience a few days ago. She left her house to look for the children,' who we-re at play in the bush. The husband, watching from the house, saw his wife suddenly disappear. He ran to the spot, but could see nothing. Ho oooeed loudly, and after a time heard a faint reply, coming apparently from a long distance. The direction whence the sound emtfnated could not be determined. After further investigation he discovered the mouth of an abandoned nuning shaft, almost hidden by undergrowth, and found that tbe cry came fiom below. Mr Bibhop promptly obtained a, rope, and descended the shaft and rescued iiis -wife from, a very perilous position. The shaft is 80ft deep, with 20ft of water. The woman had fallen feet first into the water, and on rising to the surface had maintained that position, by bracing her back against on© side of the shaft and her feet against the other side. She sustained no serious injury, but if her sudden disappearance had gone unnoticed by her husbaad she must have soon sucoumbed. Mr W. R. Cremer, M.P., -who received £8000 under tho Nobel award for the work which he has done in promoting the cause of penoe, haa conve3 r ed £7000 of that sum to the International Arbitration League. Thics is a remarkable gift (says the correspondent of the Argus) fir a man \shose income has never been more than £2 or £3 a week. The chief condition which Mr Cremer imposes upon the league- is that two-thirds of the league's council shall consist of working men. At a banquet given this week in Mr Cremw's honour, warm tributes of admiration at his generosity were paid by Mr A. Carnegie, the Bishop of Hereford, and many members of Parliament. Mr Crem-er its a man of very different meial from the so-called committes of tiho co-called Working Men's Peace Societj', as it existed in London over 20 years ago. The council consisted of about half a dozen men, who met mostly at publichous&s. They passed resolutions in very high-Sou a language, and one of their number — a veteran penny-a-liner, who is still living — obtained publication of thcbe resolutions >n the London newspapers. The proceeds of these paragraphs wore shaicd by the committee. Oil one occasion ih& committee was \«ry hard up. Funds could bs raided nowhere. At length one- of the members remembering that Parliament wa> sitting, said he would go down to the lobby of the House and bee if he could exploit some of the members. At that" time Mr Samuel Morley, tha wealthy softgoock merchant, was the most generous man on the Liberal side, and tho envoy succeeded in interviewing him. After a, short while the envoy returned to his colleagues, who ware waiting at an hotel near tho Strand, and, bursting into the room, ho shouted, "Hoorah! Another fiver from Sam." Tho next stage was to call for drinks all rotmd. And the Working Men's Peace Society was deemed by some persons to bo an influential society!

Remarkable circumstances led to the escape of a desperate criminal named Hintermeister from the penal settlement of Bulach, in the Canton of Zurich, Switzerland, in April. Jn some mysterious manner the prisoner had managed to> make love- to the servant of tho chief warder. :i girl of 18, whom he completely won ovar. Si'e brought him the keys of the doors, which ho was thus enabled to open, supplied him with one of her dresses and gave hi* all her savings. Hintermeister, who is a. handsome man, is being actively sought for by the police. In the meantime the girl has been arrested, and now occupies the cell cf h-or lover as a prisoner awaiting trial.

Dr Heoker, who arrived in Australia recently by the G.M.S. Weimar Potsdam, represents -the International Geodetic Association, and his mission is wholly in the interests of science. The association is subscribed to by 20 countries — namely, England,

America, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Russia, Japan, Chili, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, I Mexico, Germany, Switzerland, Rournama, ; Austria. Ssrvia, Belgium, and Holland. Thependulum astronomical and magnetic observations which Dr Heck-cr will make will be leported to that association, which has stations in others parts of the world. Tho

aim is to establish stations in tho Pacific, so that exact comparisons can. be made ot observations taken hero and elsowhere. The object is to compare the forces of gravity and magnetism of the earth. Dr Hecker has some very valuable instruments, which are used m connection with his observations and researches.

The Wellington Post states that Captain G. A. Sparkes, - until recently assistant wharfinger for the Union Steam Ship Company, died at the Wellington Hospital on Tuesday night. The deceased, who l&ft the service of the Union Company about two months ago, went over to Sydney, but returned to Wellington last week, and was at once removed to the hospital, where he remained in a critical condition until the end came on Tuesday night. Captain Sparkes, who was about 41 years of age, was well known in shipping circles throughout Neiv Zealand. 'He was for obout 15 years in the employ of the Union Company, having at one time been chiei officer of the Te Anau. He also served as chief officer of the Dingadee. Deceased leaves a widow and three children.

An application for a mandamus against the late members of the Bruce Licensing Committee, to compel them to grant the licenses which they declined to grant a fortnight ago, came before Mr Justice Williams in th© Supreme Court on the 14th. Mr W. A. Sim appeared in support of the application, and Mr A. S. Adams to oppose. After argument, the mandamus wa.3 refused, without costs, on the ground that the committee, having resigned, they had no longer any authority, and the new committee, not having been yet appointed, there was no person before the court against whom an order could be made.

The second trial of Donald M'Kenzie, concluded before his Honor Mr Justice Denniston on the 14th, proved cs resultles? as the first, the jury being, as previously, unable to agree. The case was adjourned till Monday next in the meantime, the Crown Prosecutor (Mr Fraser) intimating that he proposed having another trial.

The- Premier has been advised that the Bislpy team, which left Wellington by the Athenic, arrived in London on the 13th, all well.

The West port Coal Company has opened its new railway line at Denni&ton, one mile and a-half in length, to convey coal from the mine to the break head, thus abolishing tunnel haulage.

Information Las been received by the Inspector of Police that a four-roomed wooden dwelling-house at Clarendon, in the Waihoila district, owned and occupied by James Thornton Brown, farmer, was destroyed by fire pfc 2 a.m. on Monday, 13th. The dwelling and furniture were insured in the Phcemx office for £200, but the less is estimated at £60 over that sum. Mr Brown and his wife, retired at 11 o'elcck on the previous niglit, and everything was all right then. It is supposed the fire originated through a spark from the stove in the kitchen igniting some woodwork near the fireplace. Only a few articles of clothing were sav&d.

The fish caught at the Seaoliff Asylum fishing station at Kaiitane in the last six

months have represented a weight of 53,7001b, of which 40,0001b have b&en used at the institution, and 13,7001b have been supplied to various hospitals and public, institutions from luvercargifl to Christchurch. No complaint of any sort regarding the quality or freshness of the fish has been received from any quarter, with tho exception of the complaints made by the patients of the Home for Inebriates at Waitati. Among the institutions that have been provided with fish are the Caversham Industrial School, and the Benevolent Institution at Caversham, and from both establishments we received, on inquiry, expressions of satisfaction with the supply. " No complaint of any kind has been heard at the Industrial School," w© are told; on the oontrary, the fish have been " verygood." And the manager of the Benevolent Home speaks very high'y of what has been received there, the fish being described by him as "Al, " "splendid," "of first-e'ess quality."

Mr Donald Reid, M.H.R., addressed the Green Island portion of his constituency at the Volunteer Hall on the 14th. There was a moderate attendance, and Mr John Blair occupied the chair. Mr Reid expresswl regret that the Premier was ill, and condemned the practice of wasting time at the beginning of the session, and hurrying through important measures at the end. After reference to the Conference of Premiers at Home, the Navy Act, the Preferential Trade Act, and the Shipping Act, he severely condemned the centralisation of education in Wellington. On the fubject of land tenure he declared that he favoured the freehold system, and defended his action in voting for the San Francisco mail service. At the. conclusion of the address a few question's were asked and answered, and a vote of thanks to the speakc-r and 1 to the chair brought the meeting to a close.

Dr Wa'ilk, Anglican Bishop of Wellington, met the Natives at Otaki, ivhen the question of the Porirua Trust, which recently gained such prominence owing to the strictures of the Privy Council and the reply of the New Zealand judges, came up for discussion. According to tho Otaki Mail there was a strong feeling among the Natives, it was said, that unless the Porirua Trust funds were expended in this (Otaki) c'jgtrict, they would withdraw all support and connection with the Anglican Church. The Bishop said this would have no weight with the trustees. Some of the Natives declared other denominations had done more for the Native children than the Anglicans. The Natives plainly stated that they would refuse to collect towards the support of their clergy until they heard the decision with reference to the Porirua Trust funds. One of the Natives said that when last in Otp.ki the Bishop had told them that, provided Archdeacon Williams was agreeable, the Otaki College wotild be reinstated. Archdeacon Williams haS heartily agreed \v:th this proposal, yet now the Bishop said they had not yet definitely decided the matter.

At Middlemarch on the 14th, before Mr M'Ennis, S.M., W. D. Mason, J.P., chairman of the local School Committee, vas charged, on the information of Mr Ryan, truancy inspector, with failing to send his children to school rhe required miinbor of times prescribed by the act. ' There were tvio informations, and a fine of 2a on each was imposed.

Mr James Mills, managing director of the Union Steam Ship Company, speaking at Wellington or. Wednesday, in the course of his reply to an address presented by the Australasian Institute of Marine Engineers and al*o with the badge of an honorary aasocia'te, said a turbine steamer for tho Mclbourne-Launceston passenger trade would be running at an early date The vessel would be of about 7000 horse-power, with a speed of 18 knots. He thought he was not betraying confidence in saying tho directors hoped to build a turbine steamer for the Wellington-Lyttelton service, and have it here within the course of a year. The company had al«o in view the fitting up of an intercolonial turbine steamer, capable of attaining a speed of 18 knots, and built somewhat on the lines of the Manuka.

The usual weekly meeting of the Benevolent Tm-tcos, held on Wednesday afternoon, \va^ attended by Messrs R. M. Clark (in the chair, W. Burnett, A. E. Tapper, W. T. Talboy*. J. Thomson, J. Green, and the Hon. 11. Gourley. Tho secretary reported the death of Minnie M'Duff (aged 71 years) during the week. Accounts amounting to £193 16 : - 2d were passed for payment, and 33 caveo of relict w ere dealt with.

A'j i" > ii' '" ;; <_f tho Q\iy> Institute on Tue« # lay, 14 th, Professor Park, in moving a vote of thanks to the speakers, mentioned some interesting facts with respect to the Polar climate in past geological ages>. He stated that geological discoveries had proved the existence of rocks in the Arctic regions belonging to every period of

the geological Fcale of time. The roclcg wero teeming with the life which characterised the same periods in milder latitudes. The evidence, he said, was almost con* elusive that a temperate climate existed in the Polar regions throughout all geological lime, right up to the present glaciation» which began at a comparatively recentf date. An inference which the profeesort might very well have drawn from the Polar geological discoveries was the evidence it afforded of the rapid cooling o£ the internal heat of the earth.

A meeting of the recently-formed York* sharp and Lancashire Society was held on 1 tho 15th in the room below the Choral Hall, and was numerously attended. Mi* W. Earnshaw was voted to the chair. Mir P. K. Franco was elected secretary, Mr F. Symes treasurer, and Mrs Ancell, Mrs) Goodwin, Mrs Leach, Messrs Beasley, Smith, Terry, White, and Pilkington g committee. The question of obtaining a hasf in which to hold the annual meeting, th.9 date of which was fixed for some lime within the next fortnight was left to the committee, as was also the form the meeting should take, a suggestion being made that a basket part would be suitable.

Some, time ago the Cromwell Boroughi Council resolved to extend the water supplyto Ennisworthy street by a 4in main, and this action gave rise to some, dissatisfaction, among residents on the flat, who alleged that the proposed service would curtail their supply. A meeting of ratepayers was, con* sequently, convened about a fortnight since, and the- council was petitioned not to proceed with the proposed extension. The pe-urion was not favourably considered by the council, and on Tuesday evening lasf) (a correspondent informs n=) the objectors li&ld another meeting, presided over by Mr D. A. Jolly (ex-Mayor), at which a resolution was unanimously adopted, on the motion of Mr H. Hotop, that a solicitor's opinion be obtained as to the legality cr otherwise of the council's action in the matter. A further resolution, recommending that a petition be got up calling upon! the Mayor (Mr E. Murrell) to resign, wan also adopted. During the discussion at Tuesday's meetiag, which was attended by about 100 person*, statements were, made that the rates of one member of the council wero in arrears to the amount of £52, and another £8.

It was intimated in the Supreme Court on Thursday that the ca&e of John Mackay, hotelkeeper, and Eliza Mary Mackay, of Palmerston, against Patrick Matthew Collins, of Pahner&ton, settlor, an action for damages in connection with the sale of the North-Western Hotel, Palmerston, had been, settled out of court. Mr W. C. MacGregor, who, with Mr S. Solomon, appeared for the plaintiffs asked that the case be allowed to remain on the list until the terms of settlement had been carried out, and his Honor agreed to the request. Mr W. A. Sim and Mr D. M. Findlay represented the defendant.

In the New Zealand Gazette of Maroh 5 last regulations under the Sea Fisheries Acts arc published which require the registration of all boats or vessels used or intended to ha used for taking- fish or oysters for sale.

In securing a man named Reginald Posfc in Hobart, charged with horse-stealing in Canterbury, Detective Fahoy (says the Lyttelton Times) had a good deal of trouble with the Tasmanian lawyers. Opposition! was offered to the extradition proceedings, and just as the detective and his prisoner had boarded the vessel for New Zealand a writ of habeas corpus was issued, and tha case had to go before the Supreme Courtv The main point raised wa.& that, so far as the Commonwealth is concerned, New Zealand is a foreign State. It was contended by Post's solicitor that that position wag brought about by the. Federal Parliament passing an Extradition Act in 1903, which practically incorporated the provisions o£ ihe Eugii-h Extradition Act of 1870, and! that proof would have- to be given of tha committal of the offence as if it had been an offence against the Tasmanian law. Fail-* ing that, it w<is urged the accused was entitled to his discharge. The magistrate saidi that an extradition treaty certainly existed between England and some foreign States 1 , and if New Zealand was a foreign State tha arguments of counsel would be sound. Tho proceedings, however, had been taken under the Fugitive. Offenders Act of 1581, and, aa the warrant for arrest had been pioperly i«uod and duly complied with, he ord-f-red Post to be handed over to the detective's custody for conveyance- to New Zealand.

Some significant etatemcit? bearing on the -value of a hotel licence and the oppressive nature of the "endorsement" clause mi the act were made in the- Auckland Stipendiary Magistrate's Court last week. The licensee of the Royal Hotel was charged! v. ith selling a drunken man with liquor, and Mr J3aume. in opening the ease in den fenco, said that a conviction and tho com sequent endorsement of the license would be< ? most serious matter for his client, and iai its effects would be equivalent to a fine of £5000 or £7000. In further argument Mr Baumo expressed an opinion that the courtf shouhl use discretion as to tho endorsement

of a liceuso ;f an offence were committed ui'V, ..'-/.•-• .Hv lv. 1.--, h.sl , *»ud the court had no option. 'ilie law said thafi endor-emeat must accompany a comicuon. Mr Baunie was practical'y asking him to amend the act, which he could not do, although he agreed that amendment was desirable. He felt that there should bo classification of offences, as, for example—

(1) a deliberate offence, (2) an offence committed througc carelessness and neglect, as by employing improper servant?, and (3) offences committed innocently, such as serving a prohibited mar without knowing he -was prohibited. The Ic-v should give the court discretionary power vii+h regard to endorsements. Mr Tole, for .he prosecution, agreed as to the necessity of such amendments, but said Mr Baume should make it bis duty to obtain them. At this stage the case was adjourned.

A very smart arr&st was made in Hobart (says the Lyttelton Tunes) by Detective Ifahey, who went to Tasmania to bring over on© prisoner, but arrived with two. His object in going to the State was to take custody of a man charged with stealing a horse named Silver Sash, at Springfield, some time ago. While walking along tho streets of Hobart, in company with a police officer of that city, Detective Fahey saw a • number of prisoners coming iiloug. On looking closely at them he noticed in the c&ntre a man whom he concluded he recognised, from a description in the Gazette, as -being wanted on a charge of having com■mifcted a forgery at Methven. The forgery was committed under the name of ThoinpBon, but the accused is known as Crichtley, thovgh he was sentenced in Tasmania tor theft under another name. <- You have a New Zealander there," the Christchurch detective said to his companion, and, as a result of inquiiy, Criehtley, whose sentence in Hobart had almost run out, war- taken in charge and brought to New Zealand. Detective Fahey had not seen the man befoie, and was guided solely by the description in the Gazette.

No information Las bean l'-eoeived of any damage having been done by the recent rains to any 'portion of the railways in the. Otago district. Advice has been received to the effect that the coach from Alexandra to Ida Valley could not get to the latter place on Friday morning owing to the bad condition, of the road, but ihe passengers were brought down the- last pan of the way in trucks used by the Public Works Department in connection with the. extension of the Otago Central line.

Mr J. W. Brindlcy, general manager of the State Fire Insurance Department, informed a. representative of the Christ©lrureh Press that the department will be ready for business either on the Ist of August or the Ist of September, unless something of an unforeseen character eventuates.

At a conference of the office-bearers of the North-East Valley Presbyterian Church ■with a deputation from the Dunedin Presbytery, to consider matters in connection wth the Rev. D. Borrie's indisposition, it was decided that a deputation, consisting of Messrs W. Pryor and J. Artlmr, should wait ■upon the Presbytery at its meeting- on Monday nest and lay before it a proposal from the office-bearers winch, if carried into effect, will ensure Mr Borrie securing six months' complete rest, as strongly "ecommended by his medical advisers. The congregation of the North-East Val.ey Church deeply sympathises with Mr Borrie in his illness, and his office-beare-rs aro exceedingly anxious to. do their best to make such arrangements which they hope will result in his complete restoration to health.

The question of Charitable Aid Boards acquiring more control over the institutions to which they have to contribute money •was brought up a.t the meeting of the Roslyn Borough Council on Friday, when the Mayor (Mr T. Mackenzie, M.H.R.) referred to the movement instituted by tie Otago Charitable Aid Board with the object of obtaining fuller information and control over the expenditure of the money paid by the ratepayers for charitable aid purposes. The speaker pointed out that tho boards were at present mere dummies, passing large sums of money -without the least knowledge as to -whether or not the best results were being obtained from it; end he also mentioned that the opinion had been freely expressed by several members of tho board that unless they obtained greater authority and opportunities for real usefulness on the board they would discontinue attending the meetings altogether. Personally, he would not attend the board' 3 meetings unless conic change for the better took place. The council expressed approval of the attitude taken up by Mr Mackenzie in the matter.

Mr Henry Norman, on& of the journalist meinb&rs of the House* of Commons, who recently had ths. rare distinction of being at brief intervals received by two of th? mightiest menarchs of Europe, was much moro impressed with his interview with Sing Edward than with the Czar. The lafct&r (says Mr H. W. Lucy in the Sydnc-j-Mornicg Herald) he found a gentleman of bright intelligence, and high culture, speaking- English with fkioney and purity, rs if it were his native tongue. In King Edward hs discerned a man of frhrev»d judgment, highly trnin<xJ intellect, ajul, what most surprised hian, of wide and uE.irin? grip of whatever subject wav talked about Mr Norman having just letnrned from Jtussia, ft country whose people and effair? ho ha-s earlier studied, flattered himself he ■was pre-ity accurate and profound in his knowledge of the subject He found th» King posted up to the lat&st point on every detail, successful by searching questions in adding to his information from the srere of the lat3st gleaner.

Speaking at Wellington on the occasion of the presentation made to him by the Australasian Institute of Marine Engineers,

' Mr James Mills, managing director of tho Union Steam Ship Company, referred to the high position? held by ex-engineere of the Union Company, which at the present time Lad in its employ 177 engineers afloat. Some of them had been in the service of

the company for 20 year«. while the veteran of tho fleet, Mr Bannatyne, had been in the service of the company for 29 years. Sea-vies in the Union Company, he added, appeared to be looked upon as a recommendation and passport to bettea* situations elsewhere. Mr Mills said it had come to his ears during the last day or two that the engineers had decided to establish n technical library in Wellington, and had ordered a small selection of books for the benefit of the younger men in the service, who aspired to psrfeei, themselves in all branches of their profession The directors were very pleased to hear of thr.t decision, and told him before he left Dunedin that they would give an initial donation of £50 towards assisting the project, and bhey were prepared at a future time to do anything they could to hslp to make it a success.

The creditors in a bankrupt estate at Wellington the other clay grew reaninUeont on the subject of bankrupts who had paid their liabilities when to the creditois "' hope was a far removed thing." The Official Assignee, who sought to cheer up the creditors present at the mooting, stated that in his experience seren bankrupt estates had paid 20b in the pound within 18 month?. He< also quoted a case in which only 5s in the pound had been paid, yet within two years the bankrupt fell in for a small legacy and paid up his debts in full. Mr Weston quoted a case that was somewhat 1 omarkable. Some years ago. when h© was residing in New Plymouth, he tried to collect a debt, but it was always disputed, and he never c-ould get the amount. A short time ago the debtor called at his office; reminded the solicitor who be wa*. and paid -the debt. Several years of hart] thought had convinced him that the claim was a jn«t one. A creditor capped these stories by relating that the other day h° received a past office order for a sttm of money which ho had lent a person 20 years ago. He had forgotten the transaction, and it was only bioujht to his mind by an accompanying note. After that (says th° New Zealand Times) the creditors di~per£=e- r l in an optimistic frame of mind.

An incident connected witn the visit of the Duke and Dticbe=s of York to Melbourne which has not 3 T et been recorded was brought to light at a reoe-nt sitting of the Victorian Butter Connnissuri. A butter company had been informed thai the reputation of its brand was saiicTing, and the hsppy idea of combining loyalty and bu-iness struck the manager. He designed a box of a gorgeous deicriptlon, to use his own words when giving evidence, with a golden key and a mortised lock, put 601b of " our ordinary btitter " in it, and sent it to Melbourne as a present to their Royal Highnesses. The witness seriously and with great pride told how he s-at on the lorry which carried the box from the Sp&noer street railway station to a shop, where it was to be on -tiew for a time. He kept guaid over the treasure till it was sent to Government House. He had his reward, for shortly afterwards a letter came from Viscount Crichton, stating that their Royal Highnesses had tasted the butter and had found the quality excellent. The wording of th& letter was printed on butter-proof paper and a copy placed in every box of butter sent from the factory, and the reputation of the brand was restored. "Wcro there any festivities at Warrnambool when the letter from the Duko and Duchess arrived?" asked a member of the Commission. "Well, i\e had a few drinks," was the reply.

A remarkable case of endurance on the part of a child three and a-ha!f years old is recorded from the Broken Hill district. A son of Mr Chris Connor, of Packsaddle Bore. 130 miles from the Barrier, wandered away from home on Thursday while looking for mushrooms, and got lost in the thick mulga scrub. As he did not return by evening his mother set out in search, but as she could find no trace the father went to the mail coach changing station, where a regular search party of five or six persons was organised. In the excitement the mother herself got lost, and she was out all night, but next morning- she found her way home. There was still no trace of the child, and a<3 it had been bitterly cold and he was thinly clad it was feared he had perished from exposure, if he had not been eaten by dingoss. On Friday afternoon, however, one of the searchers found the boy about nine miles from his home trudging along quite happily as though returning from school. He was apparently not much the worse for his adventure, but whilst being conveyed home in a buggy he became insensible. On the following day, however, he had quite recovered.

Before tho Wallace Licensing Committee Inspector Mitehc-ll paid Mr J. Flyun. of thu All Nations Hotel. Wrey's Br.sh, a high compliment for the manner in which he coiJthieted his house.
