HUME ANDJOREIGN. [per press association.] THE POISONER NEILL. London, October 26. Neill has confessed to the murder of four women, but one of the leading witnesses at the trial stated that Neil! had told him he had killed lots of ■women of the unfortunate class. KNIGHTHOOD AND REPUBLI . CANISM. The "Daily Chronicle" says that the people of New South Wales con sider that republican views and knight hood are not in harmony. Sir George Dibbs* apology for accepting the honor, that the Queen was personally anxious for him to take it, is, the " Chronicle" thinks, the worst he could possibly have made. He apparently acted on the principle of anything to "oblige a lady," implying that it would have been rudeness to refuse, whereas it really was humiliating to him to accept. LABOR MATTERS. The unemployed are appealing to the Government and the County Councils for the establishment of national and municipal workshops and communal farms. The Welsh tin plate mills have closed, and many thousands of work men are idle. THE CABLE COMPANY. The Eastern Telegraph Company's profit for the half-year is £130,000. {CANADA. Sir J. C. Abbott, Premier of Canada, has partly recovered from his recent attack of paralysis. In the course of an interview with a representative of one of the city papers, Sir J. C. Abbott denied that the move ment for the annexation of Canada by the United States was of any im portance. He said that the only persona connected with it Jwere a few discontents. , The report that the Imperial troops } are to be withdrawn from Canada is denied. GAMBLING DEBTS. Mr Hebert Baring, son of Viscount Baring, who represented Biggleswade in the last Parliament, if defending an acti on brought against him for the re covery of gambling debts. It was shown in evidence that he spent £20,000 before he attained his majority. j

Holloway's Pills and Ointment.-~ Health's Defences.—None save the strongest can with impunity pass through the sudden transitions from wet to dry, from cold to muggy weather so prevalent during the autumnal amd early winter months. Influ enza, bronchitis, cough, sore throat, or quinsey will attack those most watchful of their health ; but they can readily arrest any of these complaints by rubbing Holloway's Ointment twice a day upon the skin over the affected parts, and by assisting its corrective action with appropriate doses of his pills. This well-known, safe, and easy mode of treatment efficiently protects the patient both from present and future danger with out weakening or even disturbing the system in the slightest degreS. Health : The New Method shows how much .can be done without drugs by the secrets ot flushing, massage, exercise, diet, deep breathing, etc. Flushing is all that is in a now famous secret pamphlet; but here, besides that there are other important prin ciples, and five times the matter at less money, and no pledge of secrecy. Of the original work by Dr Forest, the " New York World " remarked :—" The book is a model of lucidity and compression. It will un doubtedly create a revolution in the popular treatment of prevalent diseases. It is the most practicable, sensible, and instructive little book ever published on a medical topic." The new, greatly enlarged, edition, just published in Christchurch, is edited by W. Corrie Johnston, 160, Tuam street. A descriptive catalogue, with special offer during July, sent post free to any address. —(Advt.)

j McCORMIOK'S STEEL BINDEES. FIVE, SIX, AND SEVEN-FEET CUT. TIHE " Machine of Steel," would never have been built had McCormick been con- X tent to stop when their self-binding harvester was considered by thousands to be good enough. "Advance and improvement " the policy of the McCormick Com pany. It is striving at all times to anticipate the wants of the agriculturists, and to make machines for handling grain and grass more perfect than any other machines on the farm. The fruit of this policy is seen in the immense sale of the McCormick. The people of the world demand and will buy the best, even though the cheap is offered them at far less price. While McCormick machines are recognised world wide <*s the best, the Government of the U.S. specifying them as the standard, still at home and abroad, in the competitive field trial with a combinpd opposition whose cry is "McCormick must not win," nine times out of ten the MaCormick is victor. The aggregate of a'l the prizes won by all makes of machine, both home and foreign, do not equal the prizes won by the McCormick. But the MrCormick has clone more than this ; it has pleased the critical farmers of the world. John Orr and Co., AGENTS.
