SCULLING.
A Challenge for Arnst. It is likely that Amst Will .be called upon soon to defend his. title to the sculling championship of the world. A table message has been received by his committee from a person in England acting for someone whose name has been mutilated in transmission, but possibly Barry, offering to row Arnst for the championship for £50(1 and £lOO expenses. The cable is being repeated, and the matter will probably be fixed up this week. A movement has been set on foot in Christchurch for the purpose of recognising in a tangible manner K. Arnst’s victory in winning the seulling championship of the world. It is intended that the testimonial shall take the form of a purse of sovereigns, and it is expected that a considerable sum will be realised. A strong committee has been formed, with Mr R. Heaton Rhodes, M.P., as chairman.
