to him for some two or throe minutes, and then learnt that the parcel had been given up to a man of whom ho immediately went in pursuit, accom panied by the boy. He went down the gully, and then returned, when the last witness told him tho direction in which the man had gone. He then proceeded dowu the gully ai;ain, and went as far as Mrs Glover's place without seeing the man. The witness was cross-examined by the prisoner at great length, aud with much cleverness.

Kate Kelly, domestic servant in the omploy of Mr Glover, of Syroonds-street, deposed that her master's residence wfts separated from that of Dr Philson by a gully. On the afternoon of the 12th. of October last, between four and five o'clock, she happened to Tie at the rear portion of Mr Glovers premises, when she saw the pri soner trying to enter by the back gate, There were two gates, and he left the first and went to the second one, through which he passed into a yard and thence by the end and right side of the house ho went to wards Symonds-strcet. Constable Jones and a little boy arrived about ten minutes afterwards and passed along the left hand side of the house. . To the prisoner: In the Police Court I stated that I could not give the time that I saw the man more exactly than by saying it was after twelve o'clock. My work is generally finished at 5 o'clock aud it was tho recollection of this fact that fixed the time more precisely in my mind. I did not remember the circumstance when I was pre viously examined. I did not speak to Con stable Jonc3. Two days alterwaid I saw the man (the pursued man) In the cemetery j I subsequently saw you jn the Police Station amongst somo other prisoners* Sergeant-major Pardy deposed that he knew the prisoner ; he arrested him on the 23rd November, in a house in Brown-stteet, Ponsonby; witness was accompanied by Con fltible Bernard and Detective Strathcarn, but the prisoner was alone ; he found the letter marked G (produced) on the mantel shelf of the prisoner's sitting-room, and also some blotting paper (produced).

BUILDING SOCIETIES.

[To the Editor.)

SIR,— In last Friday's issue of tne EVENING Star, you give the public aild Shareholders a statement of the business done for the past year by the Auckland Industrial Provident Permanent Land and Inveßtirie&t Society, and if the amount of profit given by the secretary in his balance-sheet, and tile sum paid into the society by investing and ■borrowing shareholders be correct, you can easily perceive that the sum of eight per cent, interest and three per cent. bonuses could not poss-ibly be paid. Now> Mr Editor, Horn tue very high encomiums you bestow on the L'onrll of management Sol- the economical working of the coucem; together with the assurance of auch a high rate of interest aud bonus, no doubt largo numbers iviJl enrol themselves as mem beta of a Eocicty when such bright prospects arc held out, but for fear any disappointment might follow such expectations, let us briefly glance more minutely iuto the working details of these so called Co-operative Industrial and Provident Societies. Well, suppose you or I have one hundred pounds to invest (for j say aycar), We go to the ollico ot tne society, and not willing to deposit at tha present low rate of three or four per cent., wft lake tip the number of shares which will entitle us at the end of the year to ex pect the above, eight per cent, interest and three por ctut. bonus. Well, the requisite number is 40, or £104 for the year of 52 weeks. Now, instead of giving you interest on the £104, the society divide the 104 by two, which is £52 at 8 per cent, per annum, or £4 3s 2d ; bonus on £52, at 3 per cent per annum, £11 Is 2d : £5 14s 4d, And out of the above you have to pay entrance fees, £2 ; pass-book, Is: £2 Is, Yottr profit on £104 for one year iv Building Society, £3 13s 4d, whiGh is the amount of the so-called interest at 8 per cent., and bonus at 3 per annum, invested on Building Society principles for twelve months. Now, without borrowers the Building Societies can neither pay interest nor bonus to in vestors; let us Bee if the advantages held out to borrowers are realised. Well, sup pose four hundred pounds arc wanted tor eight years, on Building Society principles, you require in the first instance to give satisfactory security; you then receive the amount applied for, namely, £400; as tho amount is tor S years you arc debited with interest, £225 10s Od; en trance fees on 20 shares, £1 j pti'S-boolc, Is; survey fees, £1 4a; solicitor's fees for drawing mortgage deed, registration, etc., £4 10. This amount, £632 ss, you are re quired to pay before released by the society. Now.on 20 shares for eight years, according to present tables, you pay 30s per week and if from any unforeseen circumstances' you find you cannot keep up the weekly payments, and wish to be released, cay, after the lapse of two years, you have paid in tho meantime (say) 105 in. stalments at 30s, £15? 10s; you are still

indebted 312 weeks at 30s, £465; on which amount you receive rebate, £132 18s 4d; you have now repaid the Society £492 11s 8d; together with the entrance, mortgage, and other chart»c?, as above, £(> 15s; cost of re-lease, 10s 6d; total, £499 17s 2d. If more than three miles from the so ciety's office, you have still further charges to tho above to pay, bat the above figures show plainly 12J per cent have now been paid, besides the society having the use of your weekly repayments in advance, which if not kept up regularly, the fines as a further charge are outrageously severe and must in every case be paid before you can get a release from the society,— Your», etc., A Shareholder.

WILHELMJ CONCERTS.

THE programme of the popular concert given in the Choral Hall on Saturday even ing by flerr Wilhelmj and company was a most attrac ive one, and every item upon it was rendered with rare excellence, while the encore selections were both choice in character and diverse in Btyle. Herr Wiibelmi's first contribution was a grand concerto by Lipinski replete with-melodious strains. It was charmingly discoursed. In obedience to the recal, an evening song by Schumann was played, and its sweetness made ono regret its extreme brevity. A bright and sparkling polonaise, by Chopin, was the next offering from the same hands, and it also led to an imperious encore, wheroupon Schubert's lovely " Aye Maria," which is evidently a great favourite with the violinist, was again executed with indescribable tenderness and unsurpassable skill. The concluding number was Bee thoven's sublime "Kreutzer" sonata per formed by Herr Wilhelmj (violin) and Mr Max Vogrich (pianoforte). It was executed most artistically, the notes of the two in struments blending most agreeably to gether, but the violin predominating throughout. Every tune and movement of the sonata was followed with the greatest exactitude, and the native beauties of the composition were very prominently brought out. Mr Max Vogrich also played Beethoven's " Sonata Appassionata," a berceuse, and a polonaise in A flat, by Chopin, and several impromptus, by Schubert, for tho latter of which he was deservedly encored. Ho fully sustained the reputation which his previous performances have secured for him. Miss Marie Conron, though labour ing under the disadvantage ot a slight bronchial affection, kept faith with the audience by singing all the selections set down for her, viz., the operatic aria, "O Mio Fernando," "Adieu,", »nd "Im patience," (two Bongs by Schubert) and " My Snowy Breasted Pearl," a ballad by Bobin son. She gave them with her character, igtic taste, and also with telling effect. Her rendition of ■ Schubert's sentimental songs led to a prompt recal, when she sang a gay and joyous Spanish air named « La Calicera." The first of a series of three farewell concerts will be given to-night.

THE HERALD AND ALL SAINTS.

(To the Editor.)

Sin,—Your morning contemporary having obtained an inaccurate report of the late parish meeting at All Saints,'deemed the affairs of that parish worthy of a loading ar. tide, in which these inaccuracies were re produced, and the characters of the incum bent and another clergyman aspersed. Let ters.now it appears, pour in upon them, and what do they aay ? Oh, it is a purely paro chial affair, and we decline further corres pondence upon it. I much regret that the "Herald" should hate taken tiis course. It should (before it shut out our letters) havo frankly acknowledged its mistake*, and withdrawn its imputations against each of those two clergymen, or allowed the correspondence to go on. The latter would in every respect nave been the better course. It would have helped, to put in its true light the position of an aged man, who on a small pittance laboured hard for many years for the good of that district, and who is now oppressed by a powerful clique ; and it wonld have drawn the attention of the proprietors of the " Herald " to the necessity of obtaining more accurate reports of proceedings at meetings than those they now publish.—Yours, Sympathy.
