ADULTERATED MILK.

(To the Editor.)

Sip —The thanks of the public arc due to you' for your article in Saturday s issue on tho widespread adulteration of milk anil other articles of daily consumption. There is no doubt that the germs of many diseases nrc disseminated by the ixefarious practices of avaricious and dishonest purveyors of our conmon household necessities, and tho npathy hitherto manifested alike by tho pre«s, the police, and even the general public themselves with regard to food poisoning cannot be too deeply deplored. I would suggest that the adulteration of m'.lk- might be effectually prevented by establishing a testing depot in some central pnfcition-say Karanijahape Boad—to which all milk vendors should be comf.elled to bring their milk every morning to be ex jimined by on official, appointed by the Government or Corporation. The only re source which would then be left to the un scrupulous milkman would be the city Bfandpipes, but I think that fear of detec tion would prevent tkese being used for the purpose of adulterating the lacteal fluid. The subject is one of paramount importance to the health of '.he community, and I trust that now the initiative in the movement of reform has been taken, the authorities will take steps to prevent in future the public friin having its health impaired and its pockets rifled by the insatiable greed of grasping dairymen.—l am, &c., Alcimades.

A DESERVING CASE.

*^^;(To the Editor.) Km,—ln addressing this letter to you, Ido so in the conviction that you will help in a " causo that needs assistance." A abort timo ago a man of the name of James Brown wa« drowned in the Patea 'River, leaving a widow and four little children, tho eldest of whom is but five years of age, utterly destitute. The woman was parting with her home bit by bit, to buy bread for her children, while her hus band wa» looking for work. I kuow Mrs Brown to be a very respectable woman, and frel confident that her character vrill bear the strictest investication in Onehunp, where she has lived for some timo. Unfor tunately, she is very delicate, aud quite un fit to work for her children's support, but if she were at howe her friends are in a position to look after her. I propose, sir, to otart a subscription in Auckland with the objoct of sending her home if I can en list your good service.". In appealing "to benevolent people of Auckland for a«sis tancc, I would urge that this is a most cli.3 tresMiig case, and that Mrs Brown it an edu cated and very desorving person. I enclose a Post Office Order for £2 10s, and bnve the honour to be, sir,—Yours, &c., Arthur Walker.

THE IDENTITY MANIA

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—On the use of the word mania : while i!« meaning may be madness, it has a milder accepted use, in the distortion of tilings by the strong " one idea " tendency. In that sense I use it. I may reciprocate " Anglo-Israel's " congratulations, in that he has dropped out of the correspondence that immoral and odious feature of the identity against which I solemnly protest— the lust of war, wealth, and national ambi tion : ever the world's dread curse. Now that the great champion of this crime < Reaconsneld) is righteously and igiiomi niously hurled from the pedestal on which beer had placed him, let us hope that we shall hear less of these things.

Against entering into a controversy on prophecy, there are two all-sullicieut rea sons : the columns of the STAR would not bo open to it, and there would Le little pro'pect of finding common ground enough on which to build a profitable discussion. It only remains forme to point out that no answer whatever has been given to my N'!W Testament facts :—(1.) Let the reader tike his New Testament and open it at Romans XI. At verse 26, Paul gives his conclusion :" So all Israel shall be saved, as it is written, there shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and slmll take nwity ungodliness from Jacob." I sub m't that' the salvation of which. Paul writes has nothing to do with national preeminence; and turning away ungodli ness from Jacob is really a little different from putting Anglo-Israels ova world-ruling throne. History would seem to say that the two things never did and never could sro together. (2.) Let "Identity Student ' look again at Hebrews viii., 10, and tell us how it is that the writer (not Paul) in quoting from Ezekiel significantly omits all reference to national restoration. These omi.-sions in two such writers sp:ak volumes. I have no hesitation in saying that these two chapters could not possibly have been written by two Jewish students of the prophets who held the belief of Anglo- Jsrael. (3.) That Christ came to fulfil all pr.phecy I entirely believe ; anH also to interpret it. Ho did both in unfolding! its higher meaning, and shewing men that what God was doing " with his whole heart and soul" was not (as had bern supposed) raising one nation above another, but bless ing the whole world through faithful Abra ham, inasmuch as "Christ being lifted up " (instead of lifting up national hatreds, jealousies, and bloodthirsty victories) "would draw all men unto him—a Saviour and a Prince of Peace." Let me assure Anglo-Israel and his fri-n'ls that os long as they abstain from the bad aud wicked principles of "crushing all their enemies and ruling over the world," I can have no other feeling than generous respect for the sincere believers in what I caunot but regard as a harmless but proiit less speculation.—l am, &c.,

Samuel Edge a.

P.S.—I really did not discover that "An Identity Believer " had asked me any ques tion of importance. He cannot sxippose that I am going to wander away into half-a dozen irrelevant matters. Such in not my habit. If he will show that Is. !iii, 5, 6, has anything to do with Identity, or will ask a pertinent question, I may reply.—S.E.

"COMPLIMENTS" RETURNED

(To the Editor).

Sir, —just a few parting words to William Cooper, aud ho can go. In my iast letter I expressed a hope that the sucking savaut would not exhaust all his philosophical re search on his " Flea for Jezebel," and I am not disappointed. He has bc3n "endea vouring to penetrate" (boring) the "mysteries eUrrounding" my birth, and "it appears" that I hail from " Dam-Ass-Cu?s and was born in a stable." This is a specimen of the logical acumen, gentlemanly cour tesy, and polished wit which Cooper has acquired in the Debating Society. I shall not retort in Cooper's stylo, nor shall I trouble myself with so profitless a subject as au investigation of his birth-place. Cooper's profound Ecriptural research ought to have taught him that no one need feel ashamed of Damascus, one of tho oldest and most beautiful cities in the world, as a birthplace ; or of having

een born in a stable. But revenona a notre Jezebel. In a former letter I spoko of her at a "Jewish female." For this, Cooper, out of the profundity of his Scriptural research, takes me to task, because she was a Phcrmiciari. Bat Cooper seems to be ignorant of the fact thac the Zidonian Jezebel was the wife of Ahab, King of Israel, anil that by her marriage, she became an Israelite. But let us see what manuer of woman this was for whom Cooper is pleading. She is described as the evil genius of all Israel, from the day of Ahab's fatal marriage with her—of the northern kingdom through the direct action of her licentious, idol-worshipping, fierce and cruel charac ter, and indirectly through her influence and example with the southern king (lom- The picture that is painted of this "accursed woman" by the sacred writer, and by Josephus is remarkable not only for the vividness of the portraiture, but also for its wonderful consistency ; she is the fame Jezebel always, and under all circumstances equally prompt, unhesitating, resolute, and bloodthirsty— whether killing the prophets, compelling Elijah to fly for his life, or removing, such an obstacle as Naboth to the wishes of her husband. She was a proud, voluptuary, idolater and murderess Cooper may find _a congenial theme in "pleading" for this abominable woman, whose character has ever since beeu the type of the " painted " harlot. His choice of such a subject is another example, if more were wanting, of the wild and ridiculous courses into which ignorance and couceit may lead such young men as Cooper, without the restraining influence of older and wiser heads. One word in conclusion. Cooper's ideal female was thrown from a window, and " they found no more of her than the skull and (ho feet, and the palms of her hands." Hor body had been eaten by dogs. Are the remnants to be worried over by a puppy ?—I am, &c,

THE WATER SUPPLY.

(To the Editor). Sir,—lt is surprising how often people rush into print, making unguarded and loose statements, which, on calm investigation, prove to be cither incorrect or not the whole truth. Often they are intentionally misleading, and show complete ignorance of the subject with which they are dealing. An example of this appeared in your last issue under the above heading, and signed " Karanaahape." " Karangahupe " mingles indiscriminately our water supply, carriages and mosquitos, and also casts a shir on the regulations of our public schools—but he also evidently writes his letter with the object of attacking personally a respectable citizen, by name Mr Nathau. _ The following explanation will, I thins, fuily indicate that gentleman's action in ' reference to our water supply : Firttly, let itbe borne in mind that Mr Nathan was, with other gentleman, selected by the electors of City East to look after their special interests in the City Coaucil, and also to study the general welfare of the city of Aucklaud. Having obtained a water supply at the cost of between one and two hundred thousand ponnd3 of borrowed money, it can be scan at a glince that heavy taxation is necessary to recoup the interest on this large sum, and conse quently the taxes on all city properties are nearly doubled for the purpose of defraying this charge. The city—or rather, the citi zens, having these heavy obligations to meet, expect their representatives to do theii best to obtain a payable return, and the only means by which this can be arrived at is a large consumption of the water, for which the charge is very small, namely 10s per year for small tenements, and from 24 to 4 per c;nt for other properties. And the Council to still furtherincrease|the consump tion, go to the expense of laying pipes under the footpaths to the boundary of the intend ing consumer's allotment, thus leaving but little work for the property-holders to do. Our councillors, however, went still fur ther, and were generous bsforc they were jiut. They erected stand-pipes in all purls of the city from which water could be ob tained for nothing, thus frustrating the ob ject they had in view, ai in place of the viator being laid on aud paid for by all owners and landlords where the city water was necessary, the staudpipe? come into general requisition. But to make matters still worse stsind-pipes are erected on the borders of Karargahape Road and other districts, which do not contribute to the coat of the undertaking, aud the inhabitants of these districts avail themselves of our re presentatives generosity by drawing largely on onr supply, and these districts, although they have been offered, the water, providing they would pay the consumers'l ate, have declined it forsooth, because they could ob tain io through the standpipes for nothing. Therefore, I maintain that Air Nathau and the other councillors would have been quite justified in cutting the water off from the standpipes altogether, and I hope they will yet do so, at the same time compelling all landlord* to supply water (either city, tank, or well) to every tenant from whom they receive rent, and if out-dwtricts, such as Karaugahape lload Avi*h to avail themselves of our supply, they should be made to con tribute in the same ratio as the inhabitants of this city.—l am, sir, A City East Elector.

Alleged Inhuman Assault.

MB LUKF, foreman in the goods shed of the Auckland Kail way Department, iaatproaeut lying at his residence near the railway bridge, Mechanics' Bay, suffering from very severe injuries, which lie su»taiucd ou tlic night of Friday last. How he sustained them is a question upon which there is a variance of opiuion at present, and the best w^y, therefore, for us to present the matter will bo to Jgive tlic man's own atitcment, aud then iudicatc the thoory which the police have elaborated from the information which they have obtniued as the result of diligent inquiry. Mr Luke then avers that shortly arter 9 o'clock on the night in question he left town for his home, which is situated on the southern sido of the railway line a score or so of 3 arda distant from the Mechanics Bay Bridge, atd that ou hia way he called iv at the Swan Inn, where he had a convi vial glass with an acquaintance. They parted at the door at ttie tavern about teu o'clock, and Luko passed up under the bridge in the direction ef hi? house. After climbing a gently ascent which leads to the further end of the bridge he was approach ing an opening in the fence, which gives access to the ground round Ms dwelling, when he was suddenly besot by two or three men (the exact number he does not know) who without remark or exclamation of any kind began to belabour him most unmercifully with heavy sticks, which they carried in their hands. He cried out lustily for help but none came. He thinks that he must have been stunned, for he docs Juot recollect how he managed to crawl home. A reporter from this ollicc interviewed him to-day, and elicited the above paiticulars. The mans face would nppsar to have borno the brunt of the injuries for it is otic livid mass of contused and stvollcu llesb. with receut marks of extravasated blood here and there, ilia left jaw ia fractured, several of bin front taeth hare been knocked out, and one of his shins bears evidence either oi a severe kick or fall. Mrs Luke informed our representa tive that Dr. Wright, after examining her husband, had declared that such wounds and contusions could not have been caused by a fall upon scoria. In this place it is but fair to mention that Luke at first alleged that he Avas nsiailed near the engine shed on the Beach Koad, aud that on being reminded that he called iv at the Swan Inn, he corrected his statement. From the details -gleamed by the police it seems that on Friday night about 10 o'clock Luko called at the Swan Inn with a shipwright named Lowe, and remained some time, durint? which both men had two separate drinks, Ou leaving they both took different directions. A man named George Eyre was standing outside the hotel, and he alleges that ho watched Luke until he was lost in the gloom of the railway nrchway while neither ho uor the watchman at the Union Sawmill Co.'s premises heard [cries or noise of auy kihd to raise their suspicions. On the Par nell side of the bridge there is a low scoria parapet Hanking a sheer fall of fifteen or twenty feet to a tidal creok with a stoDy bottom and it is thought that Luke stumbled against it and fell headlong to the shallow water beneath striking his face against the rough stone-masonry in the descent. The place is a dangerous one for the wall h so low that a man would very easily fall over it whether drunk or sober. The noise too would not be loud enough to arrest the attention while cries could hardly fail to be heard by the neighbours. Then, again, his clothes are said to have baon dripping wet when he reached home. We must not omit to state however, that Luke's hands or face arc free from scratches such as small scoria might be supposed to cause. Whatever the manner in which he has been injured, hia condition is a truly pitable one. It is to be hoped that under the doctors treat ment he may rapidly progress towards com plete recovery.

CAMBRIDGE, Saturday. A meeting of the above Board was held to-day at the Farmers' Club, Mr Every Maclean presiding. The other members present were :— Messrs Fantham, Buttle, Storey, Fcrgueson. Inspectors Kuncimau, Naden, and Gerse wore also in attendance. After an ineffectual ciFort on the part ;of Messrs Buttle and Fantham to have tho meeting closed to the public and the ptcs?, applications were read from Mcs'rs Iluuter and Nolan and Mr J. B. Whyte, the former for leave to hold a cattle sale on the 24th inst., and the latter that certain restrictions might be relaxed in that part ot the district which was fenced in. The clerk was directed to refer both applicants to reso lutions previously passed. Some discussion having taken place on the advisability of preventing cattle from running at large, re^ ports by the Inspectors were read. That of Mr Naden stated that two heifers mildly affected with pleuro-pneumouia had been killed on the farm of Mr McNicol at Ohaupo. It was then resolved "That the whole of the WaipaJCounty, with the excep tion of the Pukekura Highway District, Mr Burkes farm at Te Awamutu, aud Mr McNicol's farm at Ohaupo, be declared no longer an infected district." Mr Primrose of Hamilton applied that the restrictions imposed upon the Kitikiriroa district should be removed—as there was no chance of tho disease spreading from the Swamp Company's property. He was re commended to submit the application in writing accompauied by a memorial from the settlers. Inspector Gersc gave his opinion that Mr McNicol's cattlo showed no sign of pleuro.

Finally it was[de cided that Messrs Naden and Allom should i isit hi* farm twice during the next fort n glit. I '1 he deputation then adjourned.

Gcorgo Sydney Hanscn surrendered his bnil and appeared in answer to a charge of indecently assaulting Alice McCarthy on the Oth instant. Mr Tyler appeared in defence. Sub-Inspector Pardy conducted on tho part of tho polico, and asked that the- court might bo cleared during the lioariug of the evidence.

His Worship gavo the necessary order, anil the largo crowd dispersed, and in a few seconds the windows were darkened by human facos until removed by a constable. Alice McCarthy deposed : I reside with my parents in Abcrcrorabie-street, near Symonds-etrcet. lam twenty years of ago. On Thursday eveuius last, about soven o'clock, I went into Queen-street ou busi ness. Went down Wellesley-street. Mot a man by tho upper corner of the Wcllcsloy street school; met face to face. Hud Been the man before. Tho prisoner i.s thut man. Lie passed me by. Went a few yards in advauco. Uo turuod round and followed mo. I walked faster, and he quickened his pace. Ho caught hold of me and threw mo down ou the footpath and raised my clothss. (Miss McCarthy hero minutely described what took place.) Wituesi: I was overpowered. I screamed murder. Ho jumped up and ran toward* Symondß-Btrcet, I got up and screamed for help,when fie Constable came iip.and I felt too much cxhanated to tell him. When I recorercd 1 told the constable that a man had knocked me down and attempted to assault me. He went to look for tho man but could not fiad him. The constable ac companied mo home, and subsequently to the police station, Had seen prisoner twice before in my mother's house. Ho wanted lodgings. Am positive the prisoucr is the man who nssaulted me.

Mr Tjler said he had visited tho epot and bad no hesitation in saying that recognition there on a dark night was impossible. Witness : I recognized him by the rellection of tho street lamp. Saw him afterwards at my mother's door, Was there with a person who I learned was Detective Brennan. I and mothor were in the kitchen when they called. We went to the front door. Mother opened the door. I stood in the passage. Saw him and said, mother, that's the man.

To Mr Tyler : lie was a tall slight man. Did not describe his features. Detective Brennan brought the prisoner to our lioustr. ltccognized him at the door. Also in tho front room. Mother said on first seeing him : Oh, I kuow that young man. lie called here for lodgings. He's always fol lowing the girls' about. It was windy and cloudy on Thursday night. Saw no moon. Had never spoken previously to prisoner, nor did I speak to him oa that night. Catherine McCarthy, wife of Hugh McCarthy and mother of the last witness, was sworn, and dcpoHcd : My daughter left home on Thursday evening at half-past seven. Heard her daughter's screams; knew her voice. Constable Kelly brought her to the door shortly after. She appeared in a swoon, and fell on my knees, sobbing " Mother, moth or." She did not tell me what had happened then, but on recovering she told me she had been assaulted. (Tho rcmaiader of Mm McCarthy's evidence was literally the samo aa that of her daughter.) Mrs McCarthy : I was cooking the even ing meal, and my brother was in the house at the time.

Cross-cxamiucd by Mr Tyler. Constable Wm. Kelly, of the Auckland police, deposed to being on duty in Abcr cronibie-stroet on Thursday evening, the Gtli imt. Heard screams from the direction of Wcllesley-strect. It was a quarter-past seven o'clock. Went towards the school aa fast as possible. Saw Alice McCarthy. She was standing on the edge of the foot path. She was in a great fright, appar ently exhausted, and could not spealc far some time. Presently she said .»hc had been assaulted by a man, who had run up Wcllesley-strect. Searched in that direc tion, but could sec no one. She had lost her hat. Accompanied her to her mother's to get another. She described the man He had on a low black hat, dark coat, and light trousew. 110 was thin, and inther toll. She went with me to the station. She said she could not describe his fea tures.

To Mr Tyler: She eaid it was dusk. Could not recognise his features, but should kuow tho man if she saw him again. Went about fifty yards after the man, but hearing no footsteps in tbc distance I returned to Mfcs McCarthy. Detective Samuel Brcnuan deposed to arresting the prisoner on the charge. He said ho wai engaged ah the time of the alleged assault in shifting from ono lodging to another, aud then he spent sonic time in listening to " cheap Jack " in Queen-street. Prisoner then went to his lodgings, changed hisclothes, and we went to Mrs McCarthy's. Witness then detailed what took place, the conversation, &c, aa previously state 1 by complainant. To Mr Tyler : I arrested the accused near Pitt-street, ho was working on a building there. Ho objected to going, as ho would lose his job. Took him to Mrs Saunders' at his own request, for the purpose of changing his clothes. Miss McCarthy did not recognise him among several prisoners, that was a misstatement.

This was the evidence for the prosccii' tiou.

Mr Tyler said he had a number of wit nesses for the defence, if His Worship thought it necessary to call them. Hi* Worship said tho evidence for tho prosecution was insufficient, and dismissed the case.

This was all the business,
