1 The Onehungo Meeting on Saturday was poorly attended, and at any time during tho afternoon there could not have been more than 800 spectators on the ground. The racing throughout was also of a rather uninteresting description. Mr F. Lawry officiated as Judge, Mr O.

The following are the results of the several events :— Novel Rack of 20sovs. The winner to become tho property of the Club. Weight, Bst. Dis tance, 1 mile. Mr C.

About a mile from home Rewi again took the load from Mitrailleuse, and after this tho race was never in doubt, for Rewi came along full of running, and won by about three lengths. Time, 2min. 45see. Immediately after the jockeys weighed in, a protest was lodged by the rider of Mitrailleuso against Rewi for cros3Jng him when about one mile from tho winning post. A portion of the evidence was taken, and further consideration was deferred until the conclusion of the afternoon's racing, when the stewards again met. After hearing a lot of conflicting statements, tho stewards decided to sustain the protest, and awarded the stakes to Mitrailleuse.

Theclasees inaugarated during the previous year were successfully continued, the shorthand close having an average of 35 members; and the boos-keopinn class, under Mr li. K. Davis, with an average of 60 members, was especially popu !ar. During the winter months Tuesday even ings were dovotid to soolal gatherings for young men. Much pleasure and profit was derived from a series of conversations on self n tiflc subjects, and the medical talks of Dr. Bond. The boarding-house and omployment register*, kept at the rooms, have been very servlcablo Removal notes from other associations have been presented in miuh larger numbers than over before. Tho roll of membership has been increased by 26 names, and the nurabor how stands at 151, There a-e 403 subscribers, being an increase of 79.

At the Board of Education meeting on Friday, a deputation from Hobsonvillo and Kumeu waited on the Board requesting a E ull-time school for Hobsonville. The Board promised to consider the matter and forward reply. On an application for enlargement of Epsom school it was agreed to apply for the particulars required in the regulations. The tender of C. W. Caldham (£190) was accepted for Otaika school, and C. P.1 Thom son, Warkworth (£320), for Puhoi school. Mr Cooper gave notice of motion that the Board sliall revert to the system of weekly meetings. Mr Wrigley waited on the Board to complain of a letter from Mr Rice to the School Committee. After perueing the letter the Board did not consider it either offensive or improper. The Board authorieed the renting of a building at the northern end of Tauraoga to supply required school accommodation. The resignation of Mr Moss was received with regret, Mr Luke moved, and Mr Goldie seconded, " That the best thanks of the Board be given to Mr Moss for his past ser vices." Mr Moss, in acknowledging the vote, said he war. glad that Mr Goldia had seconded the vote, as they had not always agreed on some points. Still, they weie friends. His object in severing his connec tion with the Board was his inability to give aa much, attention to it as he could wish, owing to his Parliamentary and other duties. The vote was unanimously carried. Mr Worthington stated that his letter, of which the Board had complained, was written to the Inspector. Mr Clark con sidered the letter was an insult to the Board. . After some remarks from mombers tho subject was dropped.
