FIRE IN WAKEFIED-STREET.

MOBsrs Gorrott Brothora Boot Factory Partially Destroyed.

An outbreak of fire, occurred at an early hour this morning on tho promises of Messrs Garrett Brothers, boot and shoo manufac turers, Wakeficld - street. It was first observed soon after 1 o'clock by a nightman in tho employ of Mr G. Wilson, and he in formed tho occupants of Mr Cook's stables on tho opposite side of the road. Steps were at onoo taken to arouse the Messrs Garrett, who livo in tho house adjoining the factory, while in a very few moments an alarm was being .sounded on the fire-bells. When the Firo Brigado reached tho spot the llaincs had burst through both in front and rear, and two lends of water having been obtained, one branch was taken to the back of the premk-ea, while tho other was carried over (he shop verandah into the upper story. Thcro wns an excellent supply of water, and the efforts of the firemen were suc cessful in confining tho fire to tho build ing in which it had originated. Again and again the flames swept over and around the adjoining dwelling-house, but being constructed of brick, it was perfectly sate and did not take fire. In a comparatively short spnee of time, the flames had been practically extinguished, but a steady stream of water was played ftpon the smouldering debris until all trace of tire had disappeared. Nothing is known regarding tho origin of the fire. Alterations to the premises have been proceeding recently, and in order that they might not interfere with the operations of the workmen, tho carpenters and painters havo been perform ingthciv contract by night labour. They were working in tho building up till half past eleven o'clock last night, and at that tour they were let out by Mr Richard Garrett, who locked up the places and returned to the next houso, whero he resides with his mother, sister, and his brother, Mr William Garrett. \\hen he was aroused by tho people from the oppo site stable, he found the factory in flames. The police under Sergeant White, Salvago Corps, Naval Artillery, and others were present, and rendered assistance during the ■progress of the five.

INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION AT CHRISTCHURCH.

{BY TELEGRAPH—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

CiißiSTCHimcii, this day. So far as can bo judgod by tho applications for space received from othor parts of the colony by tho Socretary for the Exhibition, the exhibit* will be of a thoroughly repro aentotive character. Otago will run Can terbury very closo for tho honour of supply ing tho largest number of exhibits. There f, so far, only one class of oxhibits from Can terbury which will not havo a com petitor from Otago, while there are several from Otago against which no*similar oxhibits will bo shown by Canterbury manufacturers. Marlborough, Wellington, and Wanganui will contribute each a vory fair sharo of oxhibits ; indeed, one or two of them give promise of making «w good a show in comparison with their size as either Otago or Canterbury. From Auckland up to the prosont tmio only nvo or six applications for space havo been received, though several inquiries havo been made. This is rather to bo regretted, because in some departmento—woodware for instance—it should bo ablo to hold its own, if indeed it could not defy colonial competition.

TRAMWAY IN PARNELL.

(To tho Editor.)

Sib,—l bog to request tho favour of your inserting in your widely-circulated paper tho enclosed copy of communication for warded to tlio Hon. tho Premier, in order that tho public may bo correctly informod as to tho points of difFeronco existing between tho Tramway Company and the Borough Council of Parnell.—Yours, &c, R. Waiker, Mayor.

" Borough Offico, "Parnell, 22nd June, 1883. " To tho Honourable tho Premier,

Wellington.

" Sik,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of tho 14th instant, in reply to my lottor of the Ist instant, re " proposed application of the St Helier's and Northcote Land Company for an Order-in-Council to authorise them to construct the tramway through the Borough of Parnell," and I have now to furnish for your further information the following points to which the Council of this Borough require tho said Company to agree before they consont to tho proposed works being constructed.—

(Signed)

E. Walker, Mayor

"1 The Company propose that a tramcar should ran to and fro through the Borough every half-hour. Asthopubhcarcnowenabled to travel to and fro by omnibus communi cation at least every quarter of an hour, the Council stipulate that the tram-cars should run not less frequently than every fifteen minutes. " 2 The Company propose to use the lino for the purpose of goods traffic. As the main road through which the tramway would run if constructed is narrow and only suitable for a single line of rails, the Council believe that the use of Huch a line for conveyance of goods would be fraught with considerable danger as well as trf in convenience to the public, and they think ' thatthig should be abandoned. They do not object to passengers' luggage being conveyed, provided it does not prove an annoyance to those using cars. ■ "3 In the evenj; of its becoming desirable at some future time to connect other parts of the borough with the present projected line through the main street, and the [Com pany should be unwilling to make such extension, the Council stipulate that they should have power to pass over such small portions oi the main line as may be necessary For this purpose upon paying the Company an equitable proportion of cost and main tenance of such portion of the lino used. As the Company apply for the use of the roads for 21 years, the Council consider it their duty to the public to make the pro vision indicated above.

The Waitemata Bicycle Club will take a run out to Avondalo to-morrow, returning via Three Kings.

The soldiora of tho Salvation Army do not seem to have a very nice appreciation of the fitness of things in matters religious. There may possibly be some justification for the use of their peculiar tormology in connection with their meetings and demonstrations, but they manifest a disposition to strain its ap plication to tho everyday concerns of faeVtho tendency being to bring religion into derision, and to exhibit their own crusade in its most ludicrous light. Lot us illustrate what we-mean. Within the last week or so an establishment beanne the B i<m of "Tho Salvation Cofloe Palace has been opened in Victoria-street by two noted members of tho organisa tion, and, amongst the show of cookpd edibles in tho window, there are two exhibits which cannot fail to attract the notice of the passer-by. One is a familtar subject of culinary treatment, placarded with the titlS** Hallelujah Ham," and the other is a dish of sheep's tongues, which are com mended to public attention with the re minder that "these are tongues which never told a. lie, price 2d each/" Con sequently, if they are not mendacious, they are certainly mercenary tongues, for they have their price and the figure is un questionably low. It would really seem as it the Salvationists go out of their way to invite the sneers, scoffa and jibes of their Skeleton Army opponents.

Weather permitting, the North Shore Rowing Club intend opening the rowing s»ason to-morrow afternoon. The boat will leave the club shed at half-past two, procoed up the harbour as far as Calliope Dock re clamation, and then return to.the shedi:

THE ROTORUA RAILWAY.

Visiting Dlrootors at Oxford.—Disastrous

Rido on Blaok Bees.

(BY TELEGRAPH. —I'RESS ASSOCIATION.)

Cajibmdge, this day, The Rotorua railway directors arrived at Oxford last night. This morning at Bix o'clock Mr Fallon, tho contractor, took the

party out to tho Hot Spring 3 about four

miles distant. Mr Pickett, the overßcer, was sent back to Matamata for des patches, and while returning along Firth's avenue, his little mare, Black Bess, became unmanageable, and finally rolled over on the grass. I found Mr Pickett lying prostrate, but uninjured, and gazing with rueful countenance at the animal which had failed him in the hour of need. The beast seemed worn out, having been ridden hard, and Mr Pickett thinks that having all his life been used to the untiring iron horso of the railroad, he must have come this morning at too *high speed from Oxford. Consequently somo of his locomotive's machinery broke down. After delay, he saddled up for a fresh start, but it is doubt ful if he reaches Oxford before dark. Rain is falling in torrents.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

The ordinary meeting of tho Board was held this afternoon. Present : Messrs Laishley (Chairman), Cooper, Hobbs, Goldie, McKenzie, and Moss. Minutes.—The minutes of tho previous meeting were road and confirmed. School at Buckland.—Mr Buckland's motions for a school at Buckland and for the removal of teachers were placed at the bottom of the list, owing to the temporary absence of the mover.

Chairman's Report.—The report re specting sundry changes of teachera was re ceived.

Harrisvillk.—A specification was sub mitted for a teacher's dwelling at Harris rillo by Mr Allwright.—Mr Ooldie con sidered the specification fair in regard to the timber.—lt was resolved that tenders bo called for.

Sciiool Maps, Etc.—lt was resolved that these bo continued for the present year, tho same as last.

Mr Buckland.—The Chairman received a notice that Mr Buckland had been in town, but was takon very ill and obliged to return home. His motions therefore were postponed until the next meeting. Applications.— Araritnu — new school: The local committee objected to tho open ing of tiro new school, and several lotters express!vo of that wish were read.— After some consideration it wan re solved, on the motion of Mr Moss, " Thct attention of tho Committeo bo called to the difficulty they are creating, and that they be informed that the Board defer action until tho Committee has had time to recon sider tho position, and that tho Board are quite willing to consider tho propriety of two half-timo schools if thought desirable." —Carried.

City Schools.—Application that a site be secured for a new school in Freeman's Bay. Somo discussion followed, whon it was resolved, on the motion of Mr Hobbs, "That tho mattor of a site for tho school be referred to the Inspector to report upon." —Tho request for a sum to bo oxponded on now books for tho Boresford-streot School Library was conceded, and othor small applications granted. GREAT Bakkieii (Tryphena Now School). —A lettor on the subject vt*as read from Mr Barstow, who recommended a site. It was resolved to accept tho recommondation of Mr Barstow, and that tho secretary be In structed to thank that gontleman for the intorcst ho hns takon in tho mattor.

Religious Instruction.— Mr Coopor In troduced his motion on this subject, of which ho had given previous notice.— Mr Lnishloy (tho Chairman) then said : " Gontlemon, —I am glad that this mattor has been brought forward, becauso I think it desirable that tho Board should placo on record their viows on tho principles involved. The first part of tho motion seonis to mo wholly unnecessary, becauso that is clearly provided for by tho second subsection of tho 84th section of tho Act, and it is thereforo only on tho recommendatory part of tho motion that I need commont. Now, in respect of this, it will bo in tho recol lection of members that a somowhat similarquostion camo before tho Board somo two months ago, whon Roy. Mr Marshall, a Wcsloyan minister, applied to tho local committee at To Aroha for tho use of the school-houso for tho purposo of giving reli gious instruction to tho children out of school timo. Tho committco, for reasons unknown to tho Board, refused to grant tho application. Mr Marshall appealed to tho Board, whereupon I moved, "That Mr Marshall bo informed that, not only do tho Board recognise and oncourageaofar as prac ticable local self-government by committees in thoir respoctivo school districts, but that in regard to the use of school buildings for othor than public school purposes, tho Com mittco nro, by tho 3rd subsection of the 84th section of tho Act of 1877, clothed with the power to grant or rofuso any applica tion." Mr Clark then moved : "That it bo added as a ridor to tho above resolution that tho Board disapprove of the Committee refusing to give facilities for religious in struction in school after school is dis missed." The motion was carried, but the rider was negatived, and I was one who joined in negativing the rider; and lam glad of this opportunity of stating the simple reason why, namely, becauso wo knew nothing of the reasons of tho Com mittee in question for refusing, and there fore tho amendment really amounted to condemning unheard tho Committeo in question. Tho Committee, or any committeo under similar circumstances, might have amply valid reasons for refusing. As we were not awaro of tho grounds which actuated them in refusing, it seemed to mo then, and it seems to me now, improper on oui1 part to pass what was virtually a vote of censure on the Committeo in question. But this motion is not open to the same objection, and therefore I support it, although it is not altogether free from objection, because it lays the Board open to be called upon from time to time to inter pret the meaning of the expression "reli gious instruction," and thereby lays them open to be constituted a body of religious censors. In passing, it i 3 curious to notice the corresponding section to the 45th of the 1872 Act, which the present Act repeals, which section provides for "religious in struction," and tho . evidently inten tional omission of tho words " religious instruction" in the present Act would, without consideration, lead one to think that the Legislature intended that " reli gious instruction" should not be given at all in public Bohool buildings, even out of school hours ; but probably the Sounder in ference is that the words in question were purposely omitted in order to givo larger discretionary power in this matter to school committees in their respective school dis tricts. For which reasons, whilst not think ing that the Legislature have laid any distinct duty on us in the direction contem plated by the motion, I do not think wo shall bo doing wrong in affirming the gene ral principle, as we may safely do so without in any way denying tho principle ot local self-government by school committees—for the due recognition of which I have always contended.
