Over 800 entries have" been received for the Wellington Agricultural Show, which takes place next week. His Honor Justice Conolly was in town on Tuesday, being on his way to Auckland, after attending the Appeal Court in Wellington. Judging from the full rehearsal 'of the Liliputian Minstrels on Tuesday evening, no person who attends the Waitara Town Hall on Thursday evening will leave it disappointed. There were 13 patients in the hospital on October 1 : 10 were admitted and thirteen discharged during the month, leaving 10 in at the end of the month. The daily average was 7-87. His Honor the District Judge reserved his decision in the case of the Official Assignee v. Messrs Nolan, Tonks and Co., which occupied the attention of the Court on Tuesday. The decision will probably be given next week. A slight error occurred in our report of the decision given in the R.M. Court on Tuesday, in the rate case, 11. Stevens v. G. Priest. The ground on which the plaintiff was non-suited was that the rate was more than two years overdue. Section 31 of " The Rating Act, 1882," on which the defendant relied, states: — " In respect of all rates made after the coming inlo operation of this Actj no judgment foi the same shall be given or signed after two years from tho time when such rate first became due.' The Rev. Charles Clark, the celebrated lecturer, will give his " New Dickens' Entertainmdnt" on Friday evening, in the Alexandra Hall. As an expounder of Dickens the Rev. Charles Clark is still at the top of a very high tree. Time has not in the least dulled his talent in the delineation of humour and pathos, or in powerful descriptive work: he is as effective as over, and just as clever a mimic. Tho dramatic writer for the New Zealand Times says: — " Tho ' New Dickens' Entertainment ' I heard him deliver in a small town the other 1 evening is greater than all the dramas and comedies that have been founded on Dickens' books, and Mr Clark liimsolE is an actor (that is to say, a reproducer of human character) with very few equals. It is because I appreciate a good thing that I give Mr Clark and his manager, Mr Smythe, ; this cheap ad." j Mersard Dingle anl Corko, bog t announce that they have secured the shop known as Oasli Palace (lately occupied by Mr Creagmile), for the Christmas season, and will shortly open with the finest display ever seen in New Plymouth of useful and ornumental fancy goods, toys, and articles suitable for presents.
