horses, gnomes, and other subjects art I dotted in suitable places, and very pretty 1 little clocks in the shape of a banjo and » I guitar hold places. Watches of every kind are there in abundance and so are gold and other rings and ladies' jewellery, The watches are made to Mr Salek's own order at the English and American fac tories, so that h i knows exeo'ly what he is giving his patrons in the way of time keepers. An ingenious arrangement gives the shop man easy and immediate access to the window. A small tramway is laid upon the floor, and the larger window cases are mounted on wheels and can thus be drawn onto the tramway platform, and wheeled to one side, leaving the win dow free to get at. Inside, the window is lit with gas jets, while from the outeide a reflector lamp with a: gand burner throws quite a flood of light upon the valuables Inside, \hi cases made to fit the wall reach from floor to ceiling. One of these cases fronts the visitor as he enters the door, and in it Mr Salek displays the best of his electro plate and silver ware. The better to do this the back and sides of the owe are of mirror plate and the front of plate glass, two hundredweight of KMM hi all going to make up the case. Mr tsalek 8 home buyer having instructions to for ward thu newest goods direct from the manufacturers, there are some very hand some things to look at here, notably a beautiful afternoon tea set with electro kettieswingmth«centre,anddelicateCope land china cups ai-d saucers that alto gether will some day gladden a bride * heart as. a wedding gift. A large fruit bowl on a pedeet&l (a new thing in its way <*s a table centrepiece^, breakfast combinations, afternoon tea sets in various »nd pretty designs, and patent butter dishes with an arrangement for forming ornamental pats in flower shapes, fill up the shelved of the case, while room ib provided also for porcelain and Dresden figures, one pair seeming at first glance to be trimmed with hand worked white lace, but this lace is also of porcelain. One caa? is devoted wholly to clocks, and marble clocks of every kind and size are •hown alongside their less pretentious brethern in wood, while another case i* devoted to the accommodation of articles suitable for presentation purposes such as ladies' travelling and toilet cases, trepli cate minors, ard bo forth, On entering the door, the visitor is faced by two large terra cotta plapues representing in alto relievo two scenes from "Othello. liie only makeshift in the fittings is the counter case, which while good enough apparently for anything is not up to Mr Salek's notion of the fitness of things, and is to be replaced by one running the whole length of the counter, and of one large sheet of plate glass. Ihe shop is lit inside by a Wenham globe, and tho light is ample. The floor room It the frontshop is 22ft by 12ft, withl2tt to the ceiling. The workroom behind the shop is 14ft by 12ft. It is well lighted, and benches for three workmen are fitted up with all the mysterious looking para pharnalia used for repairing watches and jeweller* ; and judging by the assortment of the latter Mr Salek stows away m his safe every night, he and his assistants appear to have their hands A*. Behind the workroom is a spare room 18ft by 7ft. MR J- HICHOIAS, BOOTMAKER, occupies the »• little shop " to which refer ence has already been made, as standing on the site of the old right of way. There is a slight difference between a wateh maker'B and jeweller's shop and that of a shoemaker, but Mr Nicholas holds that no matter how much or how grand jewel lery a man or a woman may wear, they make but a sorry appearance unless then boots are in keeping, and he is there to keep tin balance even. Mr Nicholas was but a short time in business when the hre smoked him out, but the new shop finds him in full feather with a new stock and nice quarters. His specialty is more the making of boots to the order of customers than the sale of the factory made article, although he has enough and to spare of the latter displayed in hia front shop, while he and his "mates" have a coey little work room behind. There v a marked difference between the nice premises he now occupies with their lofty ceiling, abundant light, and plastered walls, and the old low roofed, dingy, stuffy little shop the new premises have replaced* PROFESSOR CLARK is, next to Mr Harry Friedlander, the oldest established hairdresser and tobacco ni3tinthetown,andhebeganbusiness»bout a dozen years ago in thepremisesMr Harry Friedlander now occupies. Like a good many more Aahburtonians who left the Hub in hopes of doing better elsewhere, he found that while easy to strike a poorer patch it was difficult- to strike one that was much richer, and like a sensible ma.i he came back to the old ground. The fire attacked " The County " as well as the other establishments, ,and he and Professor Purchase had to change fronttfo the rear in double quick Lime, and get out their belongings with all speed. Finding a resting place in Professor Robottom's place below Tancred street (that, too, has been razed by the way, and a new shop almost built on its site Mr Clark carried on temporarily till Mr Bullock's new shops were fit to go into, and hsre we find him in most attractive premises, well stocked and admirably fitted. The front shop, tilled with all that the smoker can desire, with many things besides for those who do not Binoke, is about the same size as that of Mr Salek, and is extremely comfortable and attractive, as the crowd of devotees of the weed evidently found it on Saturday rignt. as they lounged about it nooks payinsc court to 'Bacca. In the large saloon behind, where Mr Purchase holds sway, Mr Buliock has been no niggard of space, and better appointed silons dv coifure it would be difficult to find. Ihe walls have yet to be distempered, and that work will be undertaken as soon as convenient, but meanwhi c the floor has been covered with linoleum^ and the room generally neatly and tastefully furnished, special attention having been given to the convenience of ladies and children, a branch of the tonsorial art for which Mr Purchase has a well-earned reputation. The whole arrangements of the saloon are simply perfect, and Uic large window in tho roof affords abundance of light during the day and free ventila tion at night. Now thatjthe professor has got settled dovn in pleasant quarters we trust that nothing short of another fire will disturb his arrangements, and may that be as far off as—well, the other fire which a certain Salvation officer says is the assured final warming of all reporters. ' MR J. W. HARPUSY, TINSMITH, &0 , is the last in the row. Mr Hardley's father, Mr S. Hardley, senr., is another Ashburtou pioneer, and it seems only like yesterday, the years siip away so fast, since Mr J. W. Hardley, a boy of sixteen, came with his father to the Hud, and began work in a shop in East street south. Father and sons saw gas intro duced in Ashburton, and did their share of the fitting work. The contract for the gas fitting of the Commercial Hotel, then occupied by Mr Thomas Quill, was their.--, the Presbyterian Church, and several others if we could only sort them out from our .memory. And when the old gentleman took to farming he gave up the soldering bolt to Mr .1. W. Hardiey who now carries on the business. flhe part of the new range allotted to him is in or.c i pom—nut dividing wall crossing it as in ttiq'case of the others, so 1 thati ho has a clear sweep of thirty f*et by twelve, le&s the par* occupied by the window space. While the mam portion of Mr Hardley's stock made.up of the bulky ware of the tinsnfith, he has added for tfte new shop I fyit'aaaprtirient 9]: general ironmongery

and furnishings, and makes a creditable' 'lispjay indeed. Devoting his aHentior specially, however, to plumbing work and s*as fitting the stock shows out well in the necessaries of the latter, and the light ing of the window is in itself an advertise men t of. this department-. Three globes of tinted glass are used on the jet* and throw a soft and mellowed light upon the articles displayed, that has an almos! poetic effect, if such were possibh ( where the articles shown are hedge shears, tools, electric bells, locks, sausagi machines, and what not. An archway in the back wall gives epress trom the show ' room to the workshop behind, which latter was not a sacrifice to the flames. But Mr Bullock purposes building four teen feet of brick extension to the show room, which will then almost connect with die workshop. In the latter and aroundjit, are to be found all the machinery neces sary for carrying on a fairly large businebS of the kind pursued by Mr Hardley— guillotines for cutting tin, zinc, galvanised or black iron; for the manipulation of corrugated sheets, ridging, spouting, piping of all kinds, whether for gas or water ; apparatus for well sinking, with stocks of pumps and the gear necessary for water supply, sanitary and drainage purposes—in fact a well appointed and complete establishment, the variety- and extent of the contents of which can only be rea'ised by a visit. Both landlord and tenants are to be congratulated on the new premises, and it is pleasing to see that the building fever has been catching and that very soon description notices of Mr Coleman's new buildings will have to be written as well as the new drapery establishment for Mr Andrew Orr.|

SUPREME COURT.

'IKR PRESa ASSOCIATION. Blenheim, November 25. After the jury had brought in a verdict ■ of "Guilty" against the Hoadleys, the Judgea agreed to hear the evidence of Dr Oleghorn, which went to show that Dr Hoadley'a treatment of the child was quite proper in such cases, and the parties were ordered to come up for sentence when called on. Henry Stephen Burns was sentenced to B'x years' penal servi tude for larceny and forgery. George Marks was acquitted on a charge of forgery. Thomas A. Dickens was acquitted on a charge of embezzlement of the moneys of the Spring Creek Road Board. Auckland, November 28. At the Supreme Court criminal sittings before Justice Connolly, Mr Tole assumed his duties as Crown Prosecutor. Charg^ ing the jury, the Judge regretted the number of cases of a serious nature on the calendar, which consisted ot fifteen cases, the most serious being the alleged attempt to procure abortion, and the Maori case of wounding with intent. Richard John Pearce, on two charges of indecently assaulting t*o little girls, was' sentenced to four years on each charge, the sentences to run concurrently. WblUh Qiois, November 28. Addressing the grand jury at the open ing of the criminal sessions of the Supreme Court, the Chief Justice referred at length to the case in which Finlay and Seele are charged with shooting Greenrose, point ins? out the circumstances under which the charge might be reduced from one of murder to manslaughter. As to provo cation, he said it would have to be accom panied by personal violence before any justification could be raised for the use of firearms. He thought accused had been properly charged as joint offenders, the evidence Showing that Seele had urged Finlay to fire on Sreenrose. His Honor's remarks respecting the Woodville abor tion case ware also at great length, and he gave an exhaustive review of the circumstances of the charge. The other cases on the list were of the ordinary character and called for no mention. j Peter Jensen pleaded guilty to the larceny of two swags, and was sentenced to imprisonment for one year. The murder case against I'inlay and Seele will be taken to-morrow, if a true bill be found. Some of the spielers con victed last week refused to work in the gaol and created a disturbance." The visit ing Justice promptly sent for the sentenced men and gave them three days bread and water, which had the desired effect. Ddnedin, November 26. The criminal calendar only contains fou: cases against three prisoners.
