Webb, Mr 3 T. E. Shiels, Messrs W. McCallum, "W. F. Evans, G. B. Cartwright, H. B. Strange, J. Henry, D. O’Connor, and the secretary (Mr B. Hughes). Tno chairman reported that the Sports Committee had drawn up a juvenile sports programme, comprising 24 events, including a baby show, and Highland events. The total prize money was £2O. A slight alteration was made in the baby show, after which the programme was approved. It was agreed that an appropriately decorated car be allotted to each Queen

candidate and her attendants. The following were appointed a ground committee to allot spaces for side shows and stalls:—Messrs Cartwright, Sinclair, Henry, O’Connor, Smart, Edwards, Shiels, and Evans. This committee will meet at 1 o’clock this afternoon. Mesdames Hayhurst, Cartwright, and Aspinall were appointed to judge the decorated vehicles. The coronation ceremony will be held in the Drill Hall. It was. agreed that there would be no free list so far as admission to the Domain and Hall is concerned, and that the last ballot in connection with the election of the Queen bo held precisely at 4 p.m. As a result of Tuesday’s effort, the Domain Board flag went from the bottom of the pole to the top after the votes had been counted last evening. , The Caledonian standard was relegated to second place; Fire Brigade and Milford Lagoon Association to third: and Plunket Society, W.C.T.U. and Mechanics’ Institute to last. The interest is becoming keen, and there is every indication that the struggle will be exciting and close. • EUCHRE TOURNAMENT.

An excellent supper concluded a very successful evening.
