AUCKLAND MODESTY.
[Per Press Association.] AUCKLAND, March 24. Each steamer .'.rriving from the South Island ports brings a number of southerners wno intend to take up residence here either in the town or the country- The arrival of the Wimmera from Dunedin on Monday was no exception to the Tule, the passengers including quite a number of South lalanders determined on settling in this part of the dominion. One young man spoke dolefully of Dunedin, and said that it was a good place to get out of. "Stagnant is not the word," he said. "It is going back." A former resident of Dunedin says that in the five years he has been living in Auckland seventeen people who formerly resided in the same street, as he did have come to live here.
