ASHBURTON—THURSDAY

(Before Messrs D. Thomas and A. Harrison, J.P.'s. Civil Case. —J. Hunt v. Thomas Bradford. £1 ss, balance of price of two cupboards made by plaintiff. "Plaintiff's evidence was to the effect that the actual cost in time and material to him had been £3 13s, for the two cupboards, but in making the arrangement with Bradford he undertook to do the work for £112s 6d per cupboard. Plaintiff culled J. L Brown, who had aperi the work in plain tiff's shop, ani said the cupboards were an excellent job, and could not be made for less than £2, He would not make similar cupboards for less than £2 10s. Defendant, who was defended by Mr Cuthbertson, said that he had arranged with plaintiff to pay £2 for the job, and the work had not been well done. B. Bird said the fitting of the cupboards into the recesses of defendant's house vas faulty, and the locks were not up to the mark. Valued the cupboards at about 35s each, and it would take- 10s to make the defects good. H. Bairstow said he could make a hundred such cupboards at 255. Plaintiff said the fitting being faulty was not his fault, as the cupboards were made to the measurements given by defendant. The Court gave judgment for £1, parties to pay their own costs.

THIS A RTTTtTTRTON GUARDIAN: THURSDAY. JUNE 16, 1893.



A reliable barometer in Ashburton iadi oo ted Sldeg this morning. This is the highest reading ever noticed here. The Hon. John McKeime, Minister of Lands, was apassenger by the South express to-day. He will address a meeting of his constituents at Hamp'en this evening, re turning Northwards on Saturday, en route for Wellington. At Addington yards on Wednesday the following fat sheep from this district were sold:--For Mr D. G. Holmes, cross-bred ewes at 13/11 to 15/2; for Mr J. Holme 3, cross bred ewes at 15/- to 17/-; for Mr E. G Wright, merino withers at 15/-; two-tooth crossbred wethers at 19/8; four-tooth at 20/9. Mr W. W. Collins' lecture on " How the World was made" will be giveu at the Oddfellows' Hall to-night. The subject is of interest, from whatever stand-point it is received, and Mr Cbllins presents his view very ably. We understand a discussion will probably follow. A football match was played in the Domain on Wednesday between teams representing, on one Bide, the Ashburton Borough School, and on the other, the High School and the Tinwald School. The Borough team proved to strong for their opponents, and at the close of time the Borough's score was fifteen points to nil. The football match on Saturday in the Domain, will be—Schoolmasters—Walker, Moses, Bowler, Lewis, Kerr, Grant, Purchase, Frizzell, Speight, Maxwell, Cromie, Laraman, Anurews, Baird and Todd, v Club-—Clowes, Burns, Stewart, Hefford, Curtis, Matson, Mitchell, Simpsou, Dixon, Boyle, Cow, Denshire, A. Fooks, Muller, Knight, Proctor, Mines, Healey, Wilson, Cochrane, Squire, Scott. Play to begin at half past three. In our report of the tea and concert at Waterton fast Friday mention was in advertently omitted of Misses Ashton, Hawkens, and Timms, who presided at the tables; of a duet by Miss Hawkens and Mr Protheroe—which was vociferously encored —and of a special vote of thanks phased to Mr J. C. N". Grigg, for the use of his piano. A mistake was also made regarding the aize of the hall which is now forty feet by twenty-four feet. We regret the omissions^ but it is not always easy at such a crowded gathering as this was to obtain a full list of those taking part. The Hon Commissioner ot Customs has recently had under his consideration the question of excise duty on hop and tonic fteer, which is extensively produced in the colony, and has decided that tor the future every manufacturer of these beverages is to be deemed a. brewer under the Beer Duty Act, of 1880, and will require to take out a licence and conform with the regulations under the said Act. By section seven of the Beer Duty Act, 1880, persons carrying on the business of a brewer without a license are liable to a penalty of not less than £10 or more than £200. Persons interested in the hop and tonic beer trade would do well therefore to call on the collector of Customs without delay, as this decision is to become operative at once. It appears that Cardinal Manning died worth rather more than the £100 at which his personalty was first estimated. The gross value of his property was sworn at £3527 19s 10d; but probate duty was only paid on £553 15s lid, the net value jiter deducting the amount of a guarantee [or £2000 which the cardinal had given in connection with the purchase of a church site as far back as 1856. There was also a mortgage for which he was jointly liable with four others, and this he directed 3hould be discharged, thus reducing the personalty to the amount stated. After giving the portrait of his father, William Manning, M.P.. by Romney, and his bust, by Chantrey, to the National Portrait gallery, he leaves all the residue of his 33tate and effects to four priests for their ibsolute use and benefit.

Firs* Award of Merit as a Workman frcm the People's Palace Exhibition, Londo MR ANDREW BLACK was a student at the British Horological Institute and passed through all the different Branches, making two watches, one a key winder and one keyless ; he is therefore thoroughly competent to repair properly any watches that may be entrusted to him. He has noticed, while in the colony, that watches are very often entirely spoiled through being entrusted for repair to men who lack the necessary training. No one but a practical man can understand how to repair a watch properly, and as there is no royal road to watchmaking, good teaching and years of practice are necessary before a man can (with truth) call himself a watchmaker. Anyone possessing a valuable watch cannot therefore be too careful to keep it out of the hands of un trained men. — i ■ o— -~ — \ll work will now be done personally by MR BLACK.
