NAPIER.
May 4. Skating. This week has been a very quiet one, and the weather anything but good. Risking is popular at present, and the Princess Hall seems to be crowded every night. A committee has been formed to try and get up some assemblies, ami, if well supported, they ought to prove very enjoyable. Golf. Last Saturday was stormy and bitterly cold, and only a few people ventured out to the links. On Thursday the ladies played the first round for the Donnelly Vase. Amongst the players were:—Mrs. Bernau, Mrs. A. A. Kennedy, Mrs. Snodgrass, Mrs. A. O. Russell, Mrs. Hector Smith, Mrs. Russell Duncan, Miss Fannin, Miss Balfour, Miss Dean. Personal. His Excellency the Governor arrived in Napier on Wednesday night, and is staying with Mr. G. P. Donnelly, at Otatara. On Sunday. Lord Islington will go to the Mounted Camp at Tutira, where he will be the guest of Mr. Guthrie-Smith. Miss R. W’aterhouse, of Mangawhare, who has been visiting in the North, returned home on Monday. Mr. and Mi's. J. Price, of Takapau, are in town for a few days. Mrs. Herdman, who has been visiting friends in the South, returned home on Wednesday.
