BRITISH SCIENTISTS.
VISIT TO -NEW ZEALAND. (From Onn Own Correspondent.? WELLINGTON. July 7. “ If some of you younger “people could only know how many of us older citizens envy you,’’ said the Hon. H. D. Bell at the Town Hall meeting in connection with the visit of British scientists last evening, “envy you what you are going to have revealed to you by science in the future when we have passed away, you would realise with -what importance we view the approaching visit of the great scientists and the things they will tell us about latest developments and discoveries in science.” Mr Bell said, with a significant touch of satire, that he felt sure Wellington wasnot all picture show and theatre. There was a large body of men and women here who were interested not only in scientific knowledge, but in the remarkable discoveries that it has lately made.
