WELLINGTON.
Dear Bee, February 23. As you doubtless know, this week has been very dull down here. You will find some news in the‘Topics,’for I sent one or two to the Editor. In the afternoon or the day of their arrival. I saw Miss Hallowes, accompanied by Miss Wolfe-Murray, driving about town in the pretty little pony carriage which His Excellency bought for his daughters. The ART LOAN EXHIBITION is to be opened by the Governor next Saturday in the Society's new building in Whitmore-street. The proceeds of the exhibition are to be devoted to lhe building fund. On the following Saturday the Star Club’s Swimming Sports are to take place. The TRUDA BROTHERS are giving a concert to-night in the Opera House, and I hear have decided to give up street-playing and go in more for chamber music in future.
MISS fisher’s farewell concert, at which we shall hear Madame Bahnson. Mr Jackson, Mr Prouse, Mr Williams, and of course Miss Fisher, should certainly be one of the best concerts ever given. As soon as Madame Bahnson’s season is over. Miss Fisher is to accompany her to Melbourne, there to study under her for the profession. Miss Fisher will, I feel sure, carry with her the best wishes of her Wellington friends, who will watch her progress with much interest.
Ruby.
