THE WAOTU HOIEL CASES.

(BY TELEGRAPH.— OWN CORRESPONDED.)

OAMBBIDGE, this day. AT the Resident Magistrate's Couit this morning the cases of sell'ng liquor without a license at Waotu Hotel came on for hear ing. The circumstances in the case of Hairy Simmons, who fplcaded guilty, shewed conclusively that he was not to blame, and a small me of 40s was inflicted. The cases aga:nst Robert. Miller and Patiick Cook wera slightly different. Both the accused pleaded guilty and endeavoured to show to thasatisfaction of the Court that the whole affair arose through a misunderstanding. H;a Wor ship, however, thought they bad not done all in their power to rectify matteia, but instead had been fencing with the Uerk of the Trea«uiy ai to who should pay the license, selling liquor meanwhile, and he rightly blamed the Clerk of the Treasury for not communicating directly with the police. Under the circumstances he in- Jlicted a nominal fine of 403 in each case with costs.

MURDEROUS OUTRAGE IN OTAGO..

[BY TELEGKAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

DUNEDIN, Thnrsday- JOHN DOYLK, a man following the occupa tion of a carpenter at a farm in Lake Wanaka district, was arrested last Thurs day-on a charge of haviug fired a revolver at one Angus J. ttobertspn, with Intent to do him grevious bodily harm. It seems that the men were just about retiring be tyvcen eleven and twelve o'clock on Wed nesday ni»ht, when Doyle suddenly luahed out of his room with a revolver, and pre sented it cbse toßobertson'shead and pulled the trigger. The cap anappjd, but fortu nately the chamber was empty. Finding this, Doyle made a dash at Robertson's face with the weapon, and hit him a nasty blow. The revolver was taken from the assailant by a witness of the assault. On examination it wai found that the revolver was loaded in three chambers, the others being empty. The hammer.falling on one of these latter undoubtedly saved Robertson's life, as the muzzle was held within a few inches of his head. Doyle is now lodged in Clyde Gaol, and was to be brought before Major Ked dell R.M. to-day.

A REMINISCENCE OF the past three years marks rapid strides in tho City of Auckland; a complete revolution has been made in certain well-known branches of trado—in Stationery, Clocks, Watches, Jewel lory, and Fanoy Goods. Tho opening of tho London Arcade marked a favourable era for the residents of Auckland and its neighbourhood, greater facilities then being offered for obtain ing at one and tho same place a selection from the most varied stook in unison with tho trade motto, "S.P. &Q.R." THREE YEARS oxporionco have shown by demonstration that a nimblo 6d. is hotter than a slow Is., and that, notwithstanding tho close imitation and keen competition to which wo have been subjeoted, our business was never more successful than at tho present, tho public readily discriminating between tho plan adopted at tho Arcade of marking tho goods at tho same universal low price, and the course now being adopted by some of our competitors—marking a few lines 50 per cent, below the prices at which they havo for years supplied the samo goods to tho Auck land public During our three years RESIDENCE IN " tho City our prices havo remained the same wo commenced at in High-street, and though in tho plan wo havo pursued — viz., supplying our goods upon a lower tariff of profits than itherto Known in Auckland, wo havo incurred the displeasure of a tew of our neighbours, wo aro yet content to know we have tho approba' tion of the majority of our appreciating tizens, and as long as we remain in AUCKLAND it will be our endeavour honourably to maintain tho position in which we have been placed by the extonsivo patronage wo havo received from the inhabitants of Town and Country, to whom wo tender our sincere thanks. new /~t OODSON'S. new GOODS.
