INTERPROVINCIAL.

United Press Assooiafcion —By Electric Telegraph Wellington, September 29 A deputation consisting of officers and men of returned contingents, anxious to settle on the land, waited on the Minister of Lands to-day to urge that something should be done to enable them to carry out their wishes in this direction. The special inducements which are held out to settlers in South Africa were brought under the notice of the Minister, who was asked to do something at once. Mr Duncan said iihe question was. too involved to answer at once, but he would give his reply early nexfc week. Chbistchurch, Sept. 29 The Board of Governors of Canterbury College declined to act in conjunction with. the Technical Association with regard to establishing technical classes. It considers that the law does not allow it to spend money in that direction, and that technical instruction should be undertaken by an independent body. A young man named James Edwards met with a distressing accident to-day. He wai attending to a water wheel, and was in the act of placing the. chain in the driving wheel, when his coat became entangled in * the cogs of the main wheel. His left ana was drawn in, and he was taken round the shaft several times, eventually being thrown some distance from the wheel, hia left arm being torn off, and left hanging in the wheel. ISfo one was near, and he walked fully ten chains for assistance. Every stitch of clothing was torn from his fcody. He was brought to the Hospital, and was doing well at a late hour to-night. Hokitika, Sept. 29 The Supreme Court was occupied all day and evening in the hearing of a case of indecent assault and theft; against William Gregory. The case was not completed when the Court rose.

An Important Judgment.

United Press Association — By Eleottl Telegraph W-ei/lington, Sept. 29. A judgment given to-day by the Chief Justice seems calculated to greatly limit the cower to punish judgment debtors who make default. The case was one in which, on Bfch May, Charlotte Burgess obtained judgment for £10 4s sd, wages due against Daniel Coronno. The next day he obtained a loan by mortgaging his plant. On the 23rd May Charlotte Burgess issued.a judgment summons against Coroano for the amount of the previous judgment. The hearing took place on the 24th June; the i Magistrate making an order against the debtor for commital to prison in default of payment. Counsel for defendant debtor now moved in the Supreme Court for prohibition in respect of execution of the judgment order, on the ground that the absence of proof the debtor had means .at time of hearing the summons deprived the Magistrate of jurisdiction to make a committal order. His Honor said that in making tho order the Magistrate held that it had been proved that tho di-fendant had money of his own, which he had refused to pay to the judgment creditor, but the hitter provisions of subsection 5, of sectioa 8; of the Act of 1874, had been repealed Viy tho li-,'0.0 Act, consequently there is only left a case where the debtor "has," not "had," money of his ov.n which he has refused to pay. In this case the only evidence is that on the 3th May he had money and did pay, whereupon such proof does not authorise the coininital of a debtor to prison. It would no doubt have authorised commital under tho 1874- Act. The Magistrate has apparently read " has " as applicable to the period subsequent to judgment, but prior to the issue or hearing of tho judgment summons iv my opinion it caunot bo so read. There is, therefore, no evidence that at the time of hearing the inclement debtor had tho'n any money in his possession} hence there was no authority to issue aa order of imprisonment. This construction will no doubt much limit the power to punish for not paying debts due, but that seems to have been the intention of th« legislature. Prohibition is therefore granted with M 5s costs and disbursements.

Ross Antidote Company, Dear Sirs, —I feel it my duty to give you this enclosed testimonial in favour of Ross' 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 Bbos., and SheabmAn Bbos., Ashburton. FURTHER EVIDENCE. JAMES THOMPSON, Masterton, states that he has been cured of a long standing blood ailment, also running sore on the leg, by the use of Plantekoa Medicine and Ointment. Good for Thomp son. W. H. DEVONPORT, also of Masterton, was unable to wear his boots owing to broken chilblains, but his feet were quite healed with three applications of Plantekoa Ointment. Seems wonderful, doesn't it. MRS J. ROW, Heatherlea, Levin, suffered from " nervous debility, extreme weakness, and other ailments incidental to my sex. One bottle effected complete cure." Plante koa the ladies friend. > Do you suffer ? Plantekoa Remedies will Cnre you. Plantekoa Medicine, Ointment and Soap obtainable from any leading chemist or storekeeper. J.

RUINED. ♦ - Business men speak of the, fortunes of trade as a sea-saw, up one and the other do "vn.
