By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Aus. and N.Z. Cable Association. ADELAIDE. June 20. I-'ire destroyed Rigg and Son’s stationery factory at Southwark, doing damage to the extent of £35,000.
A large number of people assembled on the ferry wharf at Lyttelton when the Mararoa arrived at midday yesterday, the attraction no doubt being the arrival of Madame Pavlova and her company. On descending the gangway Madame was met by a tiny girl, who, on behalf of the dancing pupils of Christchurch, presented her with a bou quet of violets. The majority of the company travelled to the city by the ferry train, but Madame Pavlova and others of her party waited until their car was unloaded and- then drove over by way of Sumner.
