LABOR QUESTIONS.

[PER PB.BSS ASSOCIATION.]

Auckland, Sept. 10. Ralphs miners went out on Saturday because 150 tons small coal, sold to local merchants on condition that it shou.d not be civen to Union Companys vessels, was supplied to the mail boat Zealandia. This vessel, the merchants considered, was not a Union Company steamer. Ihe men returned this morning on assurances being given that this would not happen again. _ , , iK Weixington, September 15.

TMARUt SeF tember 15. The RM. gave fourteen days' hard let off as not concerned m the actual assault. The R.M. said he took the view that the affair was a drunken freak rather than a Union demonstration, or he would have inflicted the fullest penalty. Paxmekston NoRTn, September 15. About 150 farmers attended a meeting to consider the advisability of forming a farmers co-operative fassociation, on the same lines » the one at Chmtchurch. The resolution was almost unanimously carried m favor of a Co-operative Associa tion. -

To-day being the opening of the fishing season, Messrs Shury and Simpson made an early start, and within four hours time anded 13 fish, the largest of which was 21bs 4ozs. The bait used was whitebait phan toms, and the locale m the vicinity of the Ashburton bridge. A number of disciples of Izaak Walton! proceeded from Ash burton to the Rangitata and Rakaia rivers this morning, and are expected to return with good wallets, as the rivers arc m first rate condition, and, Mr Shury informs us, full of small fish. The funeral of the late wife of Mr James Smith, butcher, of Alford Forest road, took place on Sunday afternoon, and the proces sion from the house to the cemetery was a ' very large one, about sixty crowded vehicles and forty horsemen following, this attend ance showing the respect for, and sympathy with, the beroaved father and family. The service was impressively conducted at the grave by the Rev A. M. Beattie, M.A., and was witnessed by a large company, m addition to those m the procession, the interment taking place m the Presbyterian ground, the deceased having been a member of that denomination. The Ashburton electorate comprises the Ridings of Mount Somers, Rangitata, and Ashburton, and the County of Ashburton, and that portion of the Upper Ashburton Riding m the same County which is West of Winchmore road and South of the road running through the Kaiapoi Borough en dowment to Section 6502, together with that portion of the Riding of Wakanui which is West of the road running South from the Town of Dromore, past the New land and Seafield Post Offices to the sea, and that portion of the Temuka Riding of the County of Geraldine which is between the Rangitata and Orari rivers. This district includes also the Borough of Ashburton and the Town Districts of Tinwald and Hampstead. Geraldine com prises the whole of the County of Geral dine, excepting that portion of the Levels Riding, which is situate South of the Opihi river, East of Stonyer's road, South of the road running westerly from Section 14449, to the northern boundary of Section 13782, and South of the road running westerly from that Section past Sections 15095 and 15879 to Tycho road, and South of the northern boundary of the present Wai mate Electoral District, from Tycho road to near Cave railway station, and excepting that portion of the Temuka Riding which is situate between the Rangitata, and Orari rivers, and South of the railway line, This district includes the Town Districts of Aro whenua, Temuka, and Geraldine.

THE MISER'S DIAMOND NECKLACE.

In the year 1740 there lived m the Latin quarter m Paris, a famous miser named Jean Avere. The wealth con cealed m the obscure rookery where he resided was believed to be fabulous, and was no doubt really very great. Among his treasures was a celebrated diamond necklace, of immense value. This he concea ed so carefully that he ultimately forgot its hiding-place himself. He sought diligently for weeks, and, failing to find it, became almost insane. This rendered him even less capable of re membrance, and he took to his bed broken m body as m mind. A few weeks later a doctor and an old woman, who had some times done odd jobbs about his house, ■were both at his bedside, seeing that the end was near. As the clock m the neigh boring tower tolled one, he ceased his low muttering and sat up and shrieked, " I remember where it is now. 1 can put my hand on the necklace. For God s sake let me go for it before I forget it again !" Here his weakness and excitement over came him, and he sank back among his rags, stone dead. Physicians and students are familiar with these sudden outflash ngs of memory at the great crisis of human fate. Let the reader consider this while we relate an episode m the humble career of a signalman, Andrew Agge, who may b found on duty m his bo\ at Culgaith, a little station on the Midland, twenty-three 2nile» south of Carlisle. Mr Agge is on duty nearly every day, and must break his fast without leaving his post. The confinement and mental strain tell on the system. The strongest men cannot stand it long without feeling its effects. It makes one think of the passionate exclamation m Tom Hood's " Song of the Shirt," " Oh, God ! that bread should be so deaf, And fleah and blood so cheap." Our friend had been at the same work for many years, although he was only thirty-five when these lines were written. In 1884 he began to feel that he was about to break down. " I don't know what ails me," he would say, " but I can't eat." What he forced down produced no sense of sal isfaction or strength. Some times he was alarmed at finding he could scarcely walk on account of giddiness. He said to himself, "What if I should be seized with this at some moment when there is trouble on the line, and I need all my wits about me V Other features of this ailmenfc were pains m the chest and sides, costiveness, yellow skin and eyes, bad taste m the mouth, I'bdng of foul gas m the throat, otc. The doctor said Agge must give up his confining work or risk utter disability. He could not. Wife and children were m the way. So he remained at his post and grew worse. But his work was al ways right, telegrams were properly re- ' ceived and sent, and no train got into trouble through any neglect or fault of his. His disease—indigestion and dyspep sia—took a step further, and brought on kidney and bladder trouble. The doctor at Applebj said, "Mr Agge, you are poisoned with the foul stuff m your .stomach and blood," His doom seemed fco be sealed- It wtwj like a death warrant, Six months move rolled by, On duty one morning he was attacked with so great and ho sharp v distress ho could neither sit nor stand. He says: ' I tumbled town, on that locker and lay thoro all the forenoon. Signals might be given, the telegraph needle might <;Uck, hut I heeded them no move than a

man m the grave heeds the beating of ■ the rain against his own tombstone." : He was alone at first, but help arrived, and the poor signalman was carried home. Physicians labored on his case without avail. Around his bed were his five little children, the mother being absent m an institution, to be treated for a serious, , ailment;. i Fere he lay for weeks, part of the time ' unconscious. Nothing was to be done but ', to wait for the end. Then the torpid faculties awakened for ft moment. Memory Hashed up, and he recalled the] fact that a medicine vihich he had used with benefit years before, and then thrown aside and fargotten, was concealed m a secret place at the signal box. He sent for it, and took a dose. Soon his bowels moved, the kidneys acted, the pain was ceased, he felt better With brightened hope he sent to Carlisle for more. It arrived. He used it, and m a few days the doctors were astonished to find their patient out of doors, and on the road to recovery. He regained his health com pletely, and, m speaking of his experience said to the writer, '' What a wonderful thing it was that, on what promised to be my death-bed, I suddenly remembered where I had put that half-used bottle of Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. That Hash of memory probably saved me from death.

Our specialty is well-known to be our ability and knowledge of the horse's foot. In a well ordered shoeing forge the following standard rules will always be observed :— 1. A shoe should never be removed without first cutting off the clinches, because by simply turning back the clinch m drawing the nail a piece of the clinch is often left m the foot, endangering the horse when the new shoe comes to be driven on. 2. The frog and bars require no cutting m a regularly attended foot. And m a healthy foot where there are no symptoms of navicular disorder, the sole should not be cut. 3. The shoe should have a level bearing upon the wall of the foot, aud should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby acting as a, fearful lever upon the tendons. 4. The nails should be driven level and uni form, and only on the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner upon the inside and the greater weight of the body being sustained there. There is no comparison points of quality between the hand-made and the machine made shoe.
