MR J. C. FIRTH'S NEW STORE.

jn extensive Undertaking.

„„ j i ar ge and spacious granary which hau Latrected in Albert-street, to the order of Hi J, C. Firtb, as an adjunct to bis wejl eauipped mil', is »b°ut the mo9t costlv> aaiable, and solid structure that has yet W en raised in this portion of the colony, and 8 i exhibiting an ingenious adaptation of mf an3 to the mostvuied and effective uses fi< certainly uusurpa sed. Iv ihu respect he experience and talent of the proprietor i ,1 inforced and aided the practical skill i L-nnwledce of the architect. The siz = ■f,he building is 184 feet long by 66 h»t Had it comprises four floors representing In area of 4520 yards of ground and a stor mo capacity of 12,000 toi s while there have hLn used in iw construction !100 cubic yards of concreto, made from Wilson Broa's Muhurangi lime and red scoria gravel, mixed in 'ne proportion of one of the former to four and a half cf the latter. It will assist the general reader to forni an Sea of the magnitude oE the work when «c state tbat'Booo cubic yards of rock were /married and removed from the site hy Mr wuicher The total cost of the edifice has Lna little over £10,000. By means of thick paity walla and double fireproof iron dosM the store is divided into two distinct cortions, the eastern half (viz, that nearest tie Wharf Mill) being intended for the storage of grain, flour, etc, and the nher, or western half (fronting Albeit st'reet) being set apart for s use as bonded aod free stores. The bondc will comprise the two lower floois, and the free stores will be located on the two upper floors except that portion of them abutting upon Albeit-street, which will be utilised « offices. For this purpose the frontage is go admirably suited that one of the projected offices has already been bespoken by the East Const Native Land Settlement *. ompany. Itt th 9 construction of the building, trie greatest card has been used to secure soli dity and durability, and the result is mas tiveness and enormous strength. The f uun ottions we of solid scoria 2 ft;et Giuchesj widest the bottom, by 18 inches where the floor begins, and upon them the concrete walls are raised. Toe beams in the lower, floors are 18 inches deep by 12 inches wide, and they are supported by tire rows of pillars varying from 12 to 9 inches square. These pillars are capped and stepped, in tho lower floors, io lead and purin, and, in the upper floors, with heart of kauri. A pretty severe tcit has already been applied to the thoroughness of the workmanship and the itiengtn of the mateiial by the storage of about 700 tons of flour, etc., piled up to the ceilioj?, in that portion of one of the lower fl"Ors nearest the Wharf Mill, and after a careful examination not the slightest sign of subsidenca or de flection was found. In the erection of this build ngt Mr Firth has taken a new de partur«Tin two important points, viz., the lisa of concxete for the walls and of yellow kuhikatea timber for all the carpenters' work, having] assured himself experi mentally thai, the former is as enduring end strong as masonry, and that the latter is as proof against the ravages of insects and moisture as kauri, while pojsessiog some advantage! over it in other respects. The means of filling and emptying this immense granary, are unique in this colony, and. ample any where. Two hydraulic lifts, of a capacity of one ton eacb, and having the range of the four floors, are available for the re moval of goods, while the upper floors command an easy discharge either into Albert-street or into the side thoroughfare i that leads thence to Mills' Lane. The en trance to tha bonded stores will be from theL»ne, and here provision is made for carts being laden or discharged uader cover, the Lane having also been widened some six feet by Mr Firth h s order to afford adequate room for working the drays. At this entrance also two weighbridges have been fixed into position, so that a couple of drays can ba laden or discharged and weighed simul taneously, while the wheat as ie comes off the conveyance is at once inspected and g'aded, prior to being Btored away in the two lower floors. These floors j and their arrangement1, which is somewhat alter tha fashion of a Bilo, rnakis a fresh and excellent innova tion in the storage of wheat. It has been long known that in this climate wheat suffers greatly from the attacks of weevils and mites, and Mr Firth has discovered that by storing it in a dry underground room it may bekeptf or twelve months without being subject in any way to the depredations of ihe insect hordes. In order, therefore, to secure perfect ventilation io all the lower floor?, he has had a powerful fan put up, whica being driven by the machinery from the adjacent mill, will keep up a cool temperature and a thorough circulation of air. Xheieisone other feature iv con nection with the affair, which shows how, skilfully everything has been turned to advantageous use, and this is the utilisa tion of the different levels of Albert street, Mills' Lane, and Queen-3tieet. Whilst the eutrance from Albert-street is level with the floor, that from Mills' Lane is 2ft. 9ia below the level of the floor, thus enabling the dray to be brought up level with the floor, and the goods being removed with the truck instead of by manual labonr. The still lower level of Queen- Btreet has been turned to account by the construction of a tramway running from that thoroughfare, and passing by tunnel nnder Mills' Lane to within a short distance cf the Albert-street line, thus enabling the lower stores to be either filled or discharged by means of dray or tram car as may be found most expedient. Communication, too, is had with the upper floors by means of the hoist. In short, no skill has been neglected or ex pense withheld to make the handling of goods as easy, as rapid, and as light as possible or to lighten human toil wherever practicable. Everything used in the con struction of the building except, the slates and the ironwork, has been produced in the immediate neighbourhood of the city, and •its fall cost has been distributed amongst the contractors and their work men. The names of the contractors ;.rc: Mr E, I. Matthew?, for the car pentering work; Messrs Wilson Bios., of Mahuraogf, for the concrete work; Messrs Branston and Forster, for the plnmbing; Mr Blakey, for the slates ; Mr Blomtield, for the painting; and Messrs Bagoall Bros., of the Thames Kiver, for the supply of the timber. All the con tracts have. been carried out nnder the supervision of Mr 8. B. Matthews, architect, and to the entire satisfaction of Afr Firth, the proprietor. ■

The Salvation Army "officers" now in Dnnedin ate said to b« aifted with great flueDcy of speeph, They wear a uniform of dark blue w}th scarlet collar, on Which appear ihe letters " S. A." j while on the breast is a badge in the shape of a shield, with the motto V Blood and Fire."' Toe cap has a ecailet band round it on, which appears the words '! Salvation Army." Atarectnt meeting-, Captain Burford ex plained the purpose for which the Army waa formed. He said they wore peculiar dresees and had "their funny goings-on," so as to attract notice and to induce People to listen to them. They were not learned, bnt, bless the Lord, they knew they had passed from death unto life ; trod their reason for going forth into the world was to lead others the same way. 'They did. not preach sermons, because they ' could not—and if they could the General Would not allow them. The General knew they were not able to preach and so Would oot let them—and that was a good job, for they would be sure to get into anice old mess. They simply came to tell sinners the good new?, so that might eet all consecrated to God, Some people had told them there was no need for them ia Dunedih, but; v Mess you," he had been up' early and late since he came here, and had seen abundant need for them, Tbey did not want' money —if anyone gave them '£1,000 they could, notkeepitand remain in the Army. He wasborninßiighton, and at an early age Went to London, where he became a'coster monger. He had wandered far from the frue pa. h, bnt although he had been a great sinner he now knew that he was saved; In. ma further remarks the captain indeutified the Salvationists with the "peculiar people ftfened to in prophecy.

CURIOUS CHARGE OF LARCENY.

A Man of Colour and His Para

tnour in Court.

(BY TELEGRAPH.—OWN COEBESPONBENT )

CSMBKIDGE, thl2 day. Buz\be i h Bate was charged before Judge Macdonald and two Justices at the K.M. Court to-day, with having, on or about 3rd April, at Cambridge, having been intrusted by Julius Kastwood, tbc in formant, with certain household property, including sewing machine, bed clothes, trou sers, shirt,furniture,etc. .valued at £16 9s for safe custody, unlawfully and with intent did defraud, and.convert the same pro perty to her own use. Mr Keening appeared to prosecute, aid Mr Shcehan, through sympathy for accused, ap peared on her behalf, It appears that accused and the prosecutor, who is a man of colour, had been cohabiting together as man and witefor some time past, andaccased desiring to dissolve partnership, taking advantage of the absence of her inamorata, she disposed of all the household wares and cleared for Auckland, He, on return ing, had a warrant issued for her arrest. Before calling evidence, Mr Keening having stated that the charge was one of larceny as a ' bailee, His Worship said it could not be so, as the parties were living together as man and wife, and the husband was custodian of the articles. FromI*' the nature of the case, the prosecutor could not expect much sympathy. He might lay a fresh information for common larceny, but he decided that the woman had merely taken tf hat she believed her fair share of the goods of which they were jointly possessed. The case was accordingly dis missed,

Mr H. G. Wade, architect, received the following tenders to-day for the erection of a cottage in William'street:-Smith and Hammond, £80 10s; Dodds, £95; Craig, £102; Mc'eod, £JO4 15s; Sal', £105; Laehy and Gibb, £105 10s ; J. O'Connell, £109 10s; Morrisand Co., £11110s; Hard? ing, £114 14s; Stross and Co., £122; Bryeon, £144.

By advertisement elsewhere it will be noticed that Mr Samuel Parker has opened a branch plumbing establishment in Mays's building?, North Shore, where all articles obtainable at the Auckland store are on sale at tow* prices. The opening of this shop supplies a want which residents in tha marine suburb will greatly appreciate.

In these anarchical days it is well to know how to deal with'the apostles of equality. Caring the stormy days of 1848 four stal wart mobocrats entered the bank of the late Baron Anstlra de Kothsch'ild of Frankfort, and demanded a fair division of his wealth. "Very well, what do you suppose the firm of De RothßCh'ild is worth?" " About forty millions of florins." "Forty mil lions, you think, eh ? Now there are forty millions of people in Germany; that will be a florin apiece. Here is yours."
