Ashburto* : Thursday, October 7, 1897.

PRICE: ONE PENNY

Thk team of orieketen, composed en tirely of British lawmakers, which in tends to make a THE HOUSI OF tour of the ooloniai WraOJTS ELITES, under the guidance of thn energetic Mr Heaniker Heaton, an ex-Aus> tralian, who represents Canterbury in the House of Common?, in certain to receive a very hearty welcome. The original intention of the eleven was to play on'y four matches, one each at Ottawa, Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide; but an endeavor is to be made to induce the team to come on to New Zealand, and there are reasoniy ! even apart from the sport iteslf, which ratike it very desirable that this invitation should be accepted. It ; is probable that cricket, b not the sole object of the trip. Mr Heaton, no doubt, dtsirrg to bring th« Australian colonies more prominently under the notice of his fellow-member* in the House of Commons. Tfcis point of view is strengthened by ,^he fact that the Salisbury Government will be exceedingly well represented in the team. Another reason which has possi bly prompted the tour is that if the ~s members leave England in time they will be able to witness the final test match in Sydney between England and Australia, and if that event has any thing like the significance which the test match three years ago had, those who are really enthusiastic cricketers amongst Mr Heaton's team will hardly begrudge the expense of the trip. It will, of course, be all expense, and very < - \ little returns for the team, because they can scarcely hope to attract t>' large attendance Toie, hWever, it not likely to trouble the gentlemen whose names have, been ,cabled out., From a purely cricketing point of view the team is fairly strong, inasmuch at it will probably include the Hon. Alfred Lyttelton, a player who thirteen years ago represented Cambridge Uni versity in first-class matches, and Mr George Kemp, who within recent years' was a prominent member of the Lan cashire County Eleven, while the names of Mr J. Pease end other members nre occasionally seen in the scoring lists of the M.0.0. off matches now* adays. V

LAW.

Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.- Wellington, October 6. A deputation from the Associated Solicitors; Society was introduced to the Minister for Justice this morning by Mr Hiitcheson, aud requested the Minister to reintroduce the Law Practitioners Act Amendment Bill, . providing that solicitors, after five years' practice, shall be entitled to be enrolled as barristers. Mr Thompson said the depart- ' menfc hud communicated with' the Law Society respecting" tho measure, but no re ply had beeu received. The Society would be asked to reply. Ifc was pointed out that) the Law Society had practically shelved the department's letter by referring it to a sub. committee, which would not report for a month. The Minister said that would not be too late for the introduction of the Bill.
