Hareford's Confession.

THE KAIWARRA MURDER. Wellington, M&y 18 If Trudgeon's story ia correct he would j have been a boy of fifteen at. the time of the | Hawkin'B mnrder. The poiice lay htile ■tress on the confeßaion, which they believe as merely for the purpose of notoriety and to eßoapq an»ther charge which is hanging over the youth's head. Mrs Hawkins knows of no one named Hareford or Irud ceon who wa* m her husband's employ. There was a lad named Marsden employed np to the end of February, but she remembers no casual haml previous to the murder: Mrs Chemia knows no one named Trtvlgeon or Hareford who was working for Hawkina, but says a boy m his employ had stated to Chemis his intention of doing for Hawkins when he became » man on account of ill treatment. The polioe here ridicule the conteß&ion ot Hareford m Sydney, and declare that from t,be photo of the prisoner there, he is identical with Samuel Trudgcon. horae Btealer, who broke out of prison at Grey town m 1894. Further, their records show that Trudgeon waß on February 26, 1889, when only thirteen years and eight mouths old, oharged with larceny, here and sent to Burnham Industrial School until he attained tho age of fifteen years (Hawkins was murdered on May 21, 1889). Thi* opinion A3 to the falsity of the confeseion ie connrmea by a letter which Eliz* Truclgeon, mother of Samuel Trudgeon, haß written to the editor Of the Times to-night. Sho says—" Allow me to oonttadiot the statement, m your paper this morning, with regard to Samuel Trudgeon. He was never employed by Hawkins, and his age ia only twenty one years (yesterday, 17fch, being his birthday), ao that at the time of Hawkins' death he would be only fourteen years of age, and .besides he was m the Burnham Industrial *Sohool at the time. I think it is high time ■uch bogus assertions should be discon tinued, for it cannot do any good for either tide.

It is an excellent preparation, and is not only well suited for destroying tioks, lice, etc, and for treating " soab," " mange," etc, but also for destroy- ing the spores of the anthrax microbe 'Bacillus anthrads), and preventing the spread of anthrax among flocks of sheep.

The Portable Swing Water Barrow. Prevention ie Better Than Cure rpBE few cases of Typhoid m Aehbuiton Borough and Suburbs afford no .1 ground for a " scare," but it is only by using reasonable precautions that the dread scourge can be kept within bounds. In view of the subject being referred to m the public journals, it may be of service to reprint an extract from an issue of the " Nineteenth Century " of last year, m which special reference is made to Diphtheria, but which applies with equal force to Typhoid. The writer remarks, that the latest epidemics m Russia swept away nearly &11 the children m some villages ; and m Prussia, no less than one-sixth to one-fourth part of all children dying m the age of from one to five 3 ears suc- cumbed to Diphtheria, and the same proportion prevailed m Western Europe as well. Keen interest is being taken m the experiments of the French Doctors, Roux and Tersen ; but Diphtheria, like Anthrax, Cholera, Typhoid, Malaria, and other kindred complaints is due to an infection of the body by special bacteria, caused by the effluvia rising from drains, back yards and premises generally, into and upon which dairy and kitchen slops have been thrown. Without an infection by bacteria or tbe poisons which they secrete, there is no diphtheria. The Portable Wash Barrow is just the one thing indispensable m the direction of perfect sanitary arrangements. By its use, a two-fold benefit is derived. The fever and diphtheria breeding agencies are removed, .and what is otherwise a source of terror becomes *n absolute gain, by conveying the wa6h to pig trough or to tbe garden. The Portable Barrows can be put to varions kinds of use, and they are so admirably con- structed that, with them, a child can do work which otherwise requires the strength of mature years. The cost is comparatively small. Possession of one becomes an absolute means of sweetness, comfort and profit. __(„) — Improved Copper Boilers. 1 have jast received direct from the manufacturers a fresh supply of Portable Ccpper Boilers, with patent smoke stack joiDt, and Semi-double sheeted frame — galvanised.

Paxrisia.ii Fashions » r From Oar Own Correspondent Hats are really very pretty this season. The shapes are less eccentric and more be- coming, and the trimming exceedingly varied. It is difficult to say that tulle will be more generally employed m the manufac- ture of head gear, than flowers, or lace, or. ■pangled wings ; each and every one of these articles will come m for its share of attention, and everybody will be satisfied. So there will be hats with flowers, hats all of tulle, hats all of ribbon, even hats all wings. A pretty hat ia m black plaited straw, with a calotte of pink satin covered with em- broidered tulle; the sole ornament is an aigrette of French roses wi h their delicate green leaver. Another is a rice straw, simply trimmed round the crown with undulating jetted gauze, and beneath the brim a long spray of v'o'etts and violine shaded rot 63. There is no longer the poesi- biliiyofa doubt that mohairs and alpacaß are the materials for early spring and summer wear tl.h season. The mohairs, with, their glossy •übstantial texture, will firßt come into requisition for the costume. In tailor costumes are also many novelties The short j -cker, cut at the si-ams below tlie waist, single b-ei ated, io be worn either open or clofe*, with the graceful well shaped tkirr, ia particularly nice The sleeves are less voluminous, but far from the tight coat nieeve with which fashion was threatened daring tho season, so de dtmi-sahon, 1 hcv have the advantage of being practical, and at (he same time, dresey.
