Captain Eussell Moved to make the ratt of interest 4 per cent instead of 4| per cent The amendment was lost by 25 to 9

After a long discussion Mr Wards amendment, making the term of the cirrenay fifty yaarSj was carried by 18 to 15

Clause 17, relating to tha transfer of debentures was struck out on the voices

A new elaoae was added, on Mr WardV motion, providing that every local autho rity before converting a loan under the Act. shall make provision to the satisfac tion of the Public Trustee for the repay ment of the converted loan at maturity by the creation of a sinking fund

Mr Ward moved a new ukase (to re place clause 17), providing thab the Governor-in-Council may empower any local authority to inscribe its conversion debentures in the books of such bank as he approved of Several members contended that this was an attempt to place the inscription of stock in the hands of the Bank of New Zealand, no matte* what the cost was to the local bodies

Me Ward denied such an intention, The clause was only a parmissive one After considerable discussion the clause was carried by 24 to 14 The Bill was reported with amendments

ANNIVERSARIES, Etc.

WESLEYAN SUNDAY SCHOOL.

In harmony with the anticipations cf those more immediately interested, the Sunday services connected with the eighteenth anniversary of the Wesleyan Sunday School, held on Sunday, were highly interesting and successful. The bright spring weather which prevailed, with other favorable conditions, possibly contributed to the good attendance at each gathering, bus along with this must also be mentioned the thorough and ener getic manner in which the teachers have conducted that part of tha arrangements which pertaina to bringing the festival prominently before the public. To Mra Burr had been entrusted the responsibility of decorating the church, and with the limited choice of material available at this reason of the year —especially from a florist's point of view—the designing and work generally ware most creditable. In securing the services of L'ewellyn Owen to train the scholars and choir, the Wesleyans evidently recognise that, in musical matters, the Sunday School and Church ought to be in possession of the best talent obtainable. The excellence of Sunday's singing was the result naturally expected where an untiring teacher has a body of children and adults who are possessed of soaso of hia own enthusiasm and lovfe for correct and expressive music The presence of a viaitor on the rostrum aviso gave additional interests to the services, and when the vitsitor is a man of Dr Hosking's individuality, it is no wonder If there are members of other denomina tions who for one a *s play tally " from their own churches, and have sufficient breadth of disposition to appreciate sound and earnest preaching, though the preacher may not bear the same ecclesi astical name as themselves Dr Hoik ing's sermon in the morning was from Revelation xxi, 16, and from this text he gave practical discourse on the length, breadth, and height of character ; or, in other words, that eym mefct y of character which makes circum stances b^n-i to the man that had con sideration for others, and that in all things recognised and readied up to the Divine. The illustrations were qrainb and homely, and oesa«ionalfy evoked more than a smile fro.ti the congregitkn Without aoy desire or ability on his part 'being a atranger in the t/>wn) to preach at the people, Dr Hoaking evidently believes that

" If in a crowd a cap is thrown The one that fits yoo is your own ;"' for he is not slow to apply his teaching in trenchant language. Comparatively few speakers are successful in securing and re taining the Interests of very young folks, hub considering that the afternoon address was more suitable for adults, the behaviour and demeanor of the children were mo^t exemplary. At the hour for commencing the evening service, the Church was w H filled, and subsequently, forms had to be placed in tha aisles, where late comers were accommodated. The preacher's text at this service waa taken from Revelation I. 6, and In every respect the evening gatEering was the crowning success of the day. Any organisation which la the meinf* of bringing a man like Dr Hosking to Ashburton for" a brief visit, deserves haarty support and practical sjmpathy, and the offertories on Sunday, amounting to over £6 exclusive of envelope contribu tions, ip evidence that some members of the congregation were appreciative. Thid report would be incomplete were no re ference made to the original music com posed for the occasion by Llewellyn Owen, and hfe brother Alfsander M. The latter had Bet fresh music to the familiar hymn "Hirk, hark my soul," while new words were supplied to the former by Hon. M^pr Steward. Both < f the above were subjects of m^st favorable comment, and will be made use of by the Sunday School afc Its oidinary gatherings Jn the future with pleasure and profit. Oar readers are reminded of the public tea to morrow night, and thalecbure of Dr Hoskino; on "Science and the Bible. 1' From all accoonta the latter is expected to be as clever a deliverance as hi* sermons on Sunday were impressive and practical.

MAYFIELD TEMPERANCE SOCIETY

The monthly meeting of Ihe above was held on Friday evening, under Rev A. Blake's presidency, and with a full school room. The Chairman, in hia opening address, stated the position at present of j the Liquor Bill, and gave the probable reasons why the House had accepted the Bill in ite mutilated form. Mr Watkins, from Tinwald, also spoke on the temper ance question, emphasising the evils of tha driok traffic A musical programme o? more than uaaal excellence was submitted, to which the following contributed :^- Mfssea Doyle and McLauchlan (2) who played their own accompaniments ; Mr Dakere, from Tinwald, and Mr Dellow, who accompanied himself on the vfolfn. Messn Rober ton, John Meßae and Join Allan ; Misses Meynel! and Fellahan, and : Mlsa Doyle and Mr W, Wilson gave recitations and dialogues. Mr Dellow, In moving fche votes of thanks, paid a. his;h compliment to Mr Watkins on his stirring address, and to Mr Dakers on the excel lence of hia pinging, noticing also the fact that their visitors had come long distance to take part in this meeting. Six adult pledges and three junior were taken In the room. Afc the close of the meeting an adjomnmpnt was made to the Library, In which Mesdames Tweedy, Beckett, Roberton and Dellow had provided refreshments.

PROHIBITION.

*'!»« Sitcatioa iiurter *li*» H«W X»w

r The Rev. E. Walker, of the New Zealand alliance, who his been in' Wellington dining ihe Parliamentary session, has supplied the following state ment to the Christohurch Prohibition League:— The question whether it was wise to paas so mneh of the Liquor Bill thi=t session aa the two Houses oould agiee upon, or reject the measure until the whole could be passed, was determined in favor of the former course, principally by the following considerations:—.Next session being the last of the present Parliament, and the Upper House being very little seubitive to public opinion, it was considered by some to be at lea^t likely thub the near approach of the general election would be se zed upon by the Council as a reason for rejecting the measure altogether, and throwing the whole question bacK upon the coas<ituen eies. In that caae the next triennial licensing poll would be taken under th* old defective Act before the new Parlia ment could meet, and it would be more than four years from now before a poll could be taken under an improved law Jt will still be possible during that time to deal by legislation with the quesi >n of clubs and of national option, thus in no way delaying the application of a national opion law, while securing immediately the advantages of an improved local option law.

As the Council has excluded clabs from popular control, and they sometimes re present one of the worst forms of the driak traffic, it may be as well to demand that the question of club charters shall cease to be lawful. The moiety vote is retained where there is no contested parliamentary electiDn. Notwithstand ing that Clatha is called a prohibition dietric 1:, the following forms of license have to the prtsent been lawful there, namely, wholesale, conditional, packet, boitle, New Zealand wine and railway, When Clutha or any other district carries prohibition under the new law, no license of any description will be lawful within the district, and it is hardy likely at this time cf the day that any Government wil! have the hardihood under such conditions to grant a club charter. No new club charter has been granted anywhere since the Act of 1893 was passed, notwithstand-

ing several applications. In piohibition districts, under the new law th=- following new provisions also will obtain: It will not be lawful to pell any liquor therein ; or to solicit or receive therein any order for liquor ;or to send any liquor into the district, if there be reasonable ground for suspici< n that it is wanted for na^e there

in ; or to send any liquor without; the package having a statement on It that it contains liquor, Any suspected p\ckas;e may be detained, and examined in the presence of witnesses by an inspector 1. The penalty for a breach of any of these provisions will be—For a first cffence a fine not exceeding fifty pounds, and for any subsequent offence impriaMmonf: for a term not exceeding threemonths, without the option of a fine, People in the district wanting liquor for private use will have to buy it from outfjt<ie the district, and a brewer within the district may only sell for deliveiy beyond the limits of the district.

The vote will be taken on general elec tion days, which are usually in November, so that when prohibition is carried the trade will get nearly eight months'notice to bell out before their new licenses ex pire in the following June. It will be remembered that at the la^fc poll the baUot-paper asked three questions aboin each of three kinds of licenses, making nine lines, of which six had to be struck out to record a valid vote. Under the naw law three questions only are asked, covering alt descriptions of licenses, as to whether the existing number shall con-

tinue, or be reduced, or whether any licenses shall be granted, There are, therefore, only three lines on the ballot-

paper, and the voter may vote for any two of the three proposals. If therefore, the voter strikes out the top line only he hereby votes for both prohibition and reduction. Similarly if both continuance and reduction aro carried, but not prohi bition, reduction takes precedence of con tinuance. It requires a three fifths vote to carry prohibition, and a three-fifthp vote to reverse it; but a bare mvpriiy carries reduction. Reduction is to be from sto 25 per cent. Careful provision is made that the abuses and injustices which occurred at ihe ?a*t polling shall nob be repeated, Liquor-selling s*t Bellamy's is tiubj.ct to an op?n vote of the two Houses in the first month of each new Parliament,. Special in-

spectors, other than the police, are to be appointed to enforce the provisions cf ihe licencing laws, including, of course, the enforcement of prohibition, but without relieving tha police of their responsibility in the same matter. No new bottle licenses are to be granted, and the exist ing ones, of which there are about fifty six in Otago, Westland, Nelson, and MarL

berougfx, are not to b3 renewed anywhere after the next licensing poll has been taken. From this date no new compacts or agreements creating tied houses are to be lawful. The Licensing Committee is to be elected in March, triennially,

as heretofore, the March after the November poll; but no committee is to be dected where a district carries prohibition, because there will be nothing for a com mittee to do. The general election day is to be a half-holiday from noon, and liquor is not to be sold from noon to 7 p-m After May mxfc licenses may not be re moved to other premises more than a quarter of a mile away. What a chairman of a licensing committee could do alone can now only be done by tha chairman and two members. There are a few other alterations of the l*»w, but these aro of minor importance.
