A man who hns just fallen heir to an estate in New York city, found his good fortune alloyed by the fact that a large building of his new property was occupied by tenants who, taking advantage of the estate being involved in lawsuits, have paid no rent for over a year. They were naturally loth to leave; but the new proprietor is a man of resources. He has taken out a license as a tinner, and set a dozen men to work hammering ten hours a day on tin and sheet iron in one of the rooms of his building. After some experience of this racket, most of the tenants have surrendered, and moved away; one has tried in vain to get the assistance of the police to stop the noise; and a few obstinate ones are trying to stick it out. fjfeto Jp&etfeenmtk FOR WELLINGTON, WANGANUI, AND WEST COAST PORTS. - n _ nn H E favourite Steamer A tikfik -*• BEAUTIFUL STAR, J.
