They confabulated for a moment; and the policemen rushed out by the back way. The President had ordered troops to be called out, and the streets to be cleared at any price.

Cremating a Burmese Queen.

One o' the wives of King Mindone Mm has just been burned. In describing the scene the "Rangoon Gazette" says: — "About 9 o'clock the procession, which was nearly a mile long, started. White umbrellas, the special symbol of Burmese Royalty, were numerous, and the priests mustered in strong force. The shrines and other ornamental structures were ablaze with gold leaf, the bands of music were numerous, and the carfc-loads of presents for the priests would have suf ficed to stock a bazaar with almost every conceivable article of food and wearing apparel, besides crockery, kero sene oil, fans and furniture. The Prin cess,; as chief mourner, walked in front of the coffin,,preceded by her retinue of ,60 white-robed - woman, walking in pairs ; befor^ them girls strewed the path with roses.! The Princess, like her attendants, was dressed in pure white, and wore no jewels whatever. She and her maids of honor.-bore in their hands the white robe attached to the coffin. The latter was slung, from. a pole, and carried by bearers. Over it was thrown a splen didly decorated pall, piled high with bright flowers. The scene of the crema tion was on the slope of the Shoay Dagon Pagoda, near Bahan, where an enclosure had been erected round the funeral pile, upon which the gilt coffin was laid to the sound of wierd musio. By desire of the Princess?.the coffin was opened to enable her to take a last look at her mother. The pile was then set fire to, and, after the body had been entirely consumed, the ashes were taken away to be cast on the broad bosom of the Irrawaddy."

[PEE PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

Wellington, May 22. In the Supreme Court in Banco the Chief Justice dismissed the appeal in the case Regiha v Hill. The latter had been charged in the Resident Magistrate's Court ■with the distribution of certain indecent literature, and the justices dismissed the information on .the. ground of insufficient eridence. „ Upon this decision the Crown appealed. - On a preliminary objection His Honor ruled that there had been in sufficient service as application had not been made to all the Justices adiudicating. The Wellington Branch Railway Em ployees* Society has unanimously decided in ifavor of extreme measures being adopted if necessary in the dispute with the Commissioners. One result of the Conference on the Petone .Woollen Mills dispute is that 40 ex-operatives resume work on Tues day, 28 of those now in the mill, princi pally married women whose husbands are working in the mill or district, will be discharged, but are to be reinstated if trade improves. The Rotorua chiefs have filed a petition in the Supreme Court praying for an en quiry into the leasing of Rotorua lands. Dxinedin, May 22.

A doctor of Cremona, with a large band of peasants for its neighbourhood, has just started from Uruguay, where he proposes to establish them as an exclusively Socialist colony. The Trinidad "New Era" records the death of "an old woman " at the age of 117 years. She was born in 1773, and there appears to be no doubt as to herjage. Such a reimrkable instance of longevity in the Tropics has seldom or never been heard of. A lunatic in Melbourne escaped from the asylum on the 6th instant, and give vent to his joy at being once more at large by jump ing over a bridge 100 feet to the water.

THE Special Advantages offered by this Society are—lst, a large invested fund; 2nd, the funeral donation being reassured by the National Division ; 3rd, a liberal relief during sickness, with choice of any doctor within the district for members and their families, and as large funeral donation as is consistent with safety. The Grand Division has established a Central Sick Fund, which secures uni formity of i'ees and benefits throughout New Zealand ; allows members to move from one division to another without any increase of contributions, and affords absolute security to small or weak divisions, Benefit for Male Members -.—First six months' sickness, 20s per week; second six months, 13s ; afterwards, 10s ; death of a member, £30 ; death of a member's wife, £10. Half the above benefits are received by female members. Honorary Members of both sexes shall se entitled to the services of the physician wul apothecary, providing they pass a satis factory medical examination, and recoup to ;he Division the amount of fees payable by it o those officers on their account. The pledge originally adopted has remained mchanged until the present time, and by it ell forms of intoxicating drinks are proscribed. The position the Sons and Daughters of Temperance occupy is a standing testimony f the value of Total Abstinence principles, nd compares favorably with any other endly Society ; the sickne s rate showing 0 ne-third less than, that of other Societies lot based on total abstinence principles; the leath rate being only six per thousand in the Sons and Daughters of Temperance, as tgainst nine per thousand, the yearly average leath rate of other Societies. This Order should command the support tnd attention of all earnest temperance yorkers, as it gives uncontrovertible testi nony of the value of total abstinence to tho lealth of the body; exerts a decided in luence on public opinion, and provides an >pportunity for total abstainers to make provision-tor themselves in case of sickness, iccident, or death. •The Lodge meets MONDAY, 12th May, md each alternate Monday, at the Templar Hall, Ashburton, at 8 p.m. Every Total Abstainer Should Join. 213 W.
