r- . ♦- ■ • : ( United Press Association—By Electrio Telegraph. Wellington, August 18 At the Supreme Court, Frank T. Moore,' who last week pleaded guilty to sending a threatening letter to Sir Joseph. Ward, was brought up. Evidence was called by counsel for the prisoner as to the lat ter's good character, and to show that hii letter had only been written with a view to directing immediate attention to a report; on meat export, which he had submitted to the Government. Sir Joseph Ward gave evidence that there had been no desire to keep Moore's report back. As a matter of fact, it was a very intelligent report, and had been sent on to the Government printer. His Honor said it would .ba necessary for him to know something more about Moore. He wanted to have him medically examined,; and also would like to have some information about the faith healing propaganda the prisoner had recently been carrying on. The case was adjourned for a week, Moore in the mean time to be examined by doctors, and the probation officer to prepare a report for His Honor Ckbistchtjbch, August 18 A No-License Vigilance Association, formed in the Avon electorate to resist an anticipated attempt to introduce a licensed house into Linwood borough, which is in Avon, and in which there are no hotels, Bishop Julius speaking at the iirst meeting , of the Association this evening, said that he wanted to vote for State control but was not allowed to do so. That being so, ha . would vote "no license." He would rather die than vote continuance. Though his i party held different views with regard to 1 prohibition, it was as one in voting "no license " at the coming election. Copies of a petition are being circulated 1 throughout the South Island, asking Parliament to extend the railway from Culverden to the Upper Waiau. ferry on the road to Hanmer, to fapilitate' access to the Sanatorium. The petition sets out that the development of the, Hanmsr Springs as a tourist and health reaort; are seriously impeded by the want of suitable railway facilities. DtTNEDTN, August 18 ; As the north express was leaving this morning, Edward Robinson (Auckland), and Frederick Lund, (Tiinaru), two returned troopera, were arrested and charged with stealing from a Crimean veteran, John Mitchell, of Palmerston, two war medals, a silver watch and 20s in silver.

Eeference was filed to-day in an indus trial dispute to go direct to the Arbitration Court, in which the employees in the baking trade ask for a reduction of hours from 51 to 48, an advance of 5s per week in each of the several grades,, and that all apprentices be legally indentured.

Eoss Antidote Company, Dear Sirs,—l feel it my duty to give you this enclosed testimonial in favour of Eoss' Antidote for purifying: the blood. I have been a great sufferer for many years from ulcerated stomach, indigestion, etc. My life was a perfect misery, and I was almost a wreck. I grew tired of trying different medical men and remedies, of which I had tried almost every known one but yours and one day some eighteen months ago a gentleman came into the shop where I was employed. He remarked " Jack, you look | very ill," and you may depend I was. He added, Will you take some medicine if I procure it; I replied, I will take anything. He brought me a bottle of your Antidote, . and I took it accordingly as directed, and to my delight I began to get well, and after taking three large bottles I was a new man, thanks to your great discovery. I always keep it by me, and find a few doses occasionally keep me in perfect health, and I wish you the success with it that such a ; medicine merits. You can make what use you like of this.—l remain, yours, etc. J. H. Pauling, Masterton. . May be obtained from Messrs Fletcher Bros., and Shearman Bros., Ashburton. ] J. W.

They purify tbo blood, and by so doing cure the cause of the disease, curing many cases of disease in organs remote from the stomach. Mrs Lillie Johnston, who resides at 142 Crown Street, Sydney, writes: — "My nerves were entirely run down, and every thing I wished to do seemed a trouble. T could take no interest in my horne f or surroundings. I first began to feel'un well by being troubled with indigestion, loss of appetite, and frequent sick head aches. The slightest exertion left me , entirely prostrate. I was low spirited, and life became a burden. I was frightened at the most harmless things. I attended the hospital as an outdoor patient, but without receiving any benefit. It was suggested by a gentleman who had great faith in Dr. Morse's Indian Eoot Pills that I should try them. I began at once to improve, and continued taking the pills, and was greatly benefited byj them. I have regained my usual spirits/ and am able to do my work with pleasure. lam glad to furnish this testimonial sis to the great benefit I have derived in taking Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills." Dr. Morse's Indian Eoot Pills are put up in amber bottles, and the full name blown thereon, and are sold by all dealers throughout Australasia.
