The Auckland City Council propose to borrow £IOO,OOO for city improvements. The Governor is now in Auckland At the Magistrates Court, Mangaweka, 11. J. Woodward, holder of a new license which was recently granted at Taihupe, was fined £lO and costs for selling liquor on Sunday. The license was not endorsed. The railway traffic returns for the month ended June 22nd show compared with the corresponding period last year an increase of 14,991 passengers aud £18,370 of revenue. The removal by the doctor of the fragments of metal and guttapercha from the wounds of the sufferers by the rocket explosion at Invercargill on Friday night seems to set at rest the question o’ the particular rockets which caused the destruction, as these materials are not used in ordinary pyrotechny. The police have taken pocession of the stand and roerected it. An inch board has a hole drilled through it, and of throe pieces of quartering, of which a makeshift rocket socket made one remains. At the inquest on Saturday the Coroner pointed out that not even the local authority could give permissiou to use fireworks in such a place. In addition to the wounds on the face and throat it has been ascertained that the deceased, Mrs Sneyd, hid a wound on her head, exposing the brain. The jury found that the death of Mrs Sneyd was caused by a single rocket fired by Captain McGilvray, and also expressed the opinion that the police shewed neglect in not enforcing ’-their powers. Captain McGilvray was charged aud remanded for a week on bail of two sureties of £IOO, which were forthcoming. Wade’s Worm jb’ias are most effective and not unpleasant ; children thrive after taking them. Price, Is.
