Late News From New Guinea

■DISCOVERY OF MAGNIFICENT COUNTRY.

The exploring party, consisting of George Hunter and Hartmani. who were des patched by the Hon. John Douglas, have returned to Port Moresby in good health They ascended the eastern branch oi the Kemp-Welch River, and push ing* forward got to the top oi the mam range, between Mount Cobbree and Mount Brown, a height of 5,000 or 6,(00 feet They report magnificent country on the other side of the range, and have brought back a large collection of speci men" The natives all along the coast are quiet, and the recent expedition to Moveavi and Helnari seems to have produced an ex cellent effect. Mr Douglas assembled all those who took part in it at the Government buno*alow, and in the presence oi Mr H. 11. Romilly, the Deputy Commissioner, for mally thanked then) for what they had done, expressing his thanks for the satisfac tory manner in which his wishes had been carried out. Mr Douglas has had an attack of fever, but is now well. Tom Null, who was wounded with an arrow in the head at Helnari, is now quite well. Livesey, another member of the expedition, has re covered from his attack of fever. The exploring party under Messrs Cuth bertson and Sayer leave on Wednesday next, the 20th. They have abandoned the idea'of ascending Mount Owen Stanley this season, and intend to ascend Mount Obree, a height of 10,000 ft. They will he accompanied by George Hunter, and will have the assistance of the Government horses, which have been placed at their disposal by Mr Douglas, The Roman Catholic missionaries at Yulu Island have made good progress inland. They have ascertained that the Ethel and Helida Rivers discovered by Captain Runcee are comparatively insignificant streams, and have discovered a new river which they have named the San Joseph, running almost due north, and running to the base of Mount Yulu, on the western shores of Mount Owen Stanley. They report that the country on the other bank of the river is exceedingly fertile and very thickly populated. The natives were very friendly. Tlie missionaries visited 15 villages, some o_ them being of great size. One contained 2,000 inhabitants. They in tend establishing a station some 20 miles up the river, and before the wet season will attempt the ascent of Mount Yulu, in which they will be accompanied by Edel feldt. ;.. - ' ,-, H.M.S. Rapid, after waiting for Mr Douglas, sailed for the Solomon Islands. The pearling fleet at the east end of the island is still doing well, and getting good shell, though the water is very deep.

The Natives Chastised.

Advices received at Townsville from Port Moresby give particulars of the punishment of the perpetrators of the recent massacre at the Heath River. The expedition was despatched by the Hon. John Douglas, and included Messrs E. A. Edelfeldt, R. Hunter, W. B. Livesey, Mulholland, andsixislanders. At 8 a.m. on June 24 the party left the mouth of the Edelfeldt River for Letuarie, and arrived there about sunrise next morn ing, and advanced through the village. The natives fled and concealed themselves in the thick scrub, and showered arrows on the attacking party, many of them having narrow escapes. The natives followed them to tbe edge of the river, but the natives were driven ba^k to the scrub by the lire from the Winchester rifles. They afterwards returned, said they did not wish to fight anyone, would not again molest . white people, aud said plenty of their people had been killed. They brought pigs in token of friendship. The expedition then re turned to Motu Motu. Another expedition was made to the village of Morevei, which was deserted by the natives. A few of the principal houses were destroyed, and the expedition having satisfied themselves that sufficient punishment had been meted out, returned to Port Moresby.

Opening of the Waratah Monastery.

The opening ceremony of the Waratah Roman Catholic Monastery finished late this afternoon, and the train did not get back here until 4.50. The occasion was a highly imposing demonstration of ecclesias tical pomp. The company of distin guished ecclesiastics, who went up by special train, were accompanied by a large body of lay members of the Roman Catholic community, among whom was Mr Justice Faucett. The south font of the monastery was profusely decorated with flags, imparting a gala aspect to the large and noble pile of architecture. The weather was not favourable, but only light rain fell. The Cardinal, the Archbishop, and other prelates were formally received in the vestibule by the Father Rector of the Re demptorist Monastery. The Cardinal and other dignitaries went through the numerous rooms, sprinkling holy water in every one. This ceremony occupied a long time. Pon tifical high mass was afterwards celebrated at a temporary altar, fitted magnificently, on the spacious balcony. Dr. Torreggiani, Bishop of Armidale, officiated as celebrant. The sermon preached by Father S. Cum mings was eloquent, impressive, and highly suited to the occasion. A collection was then made, amounting, with donations, to LI,OOO, including L 3.0 additional from the Cardinal to complete the LI,OOO.

Bruin at Large.

A performing bear, in charge of three Frenchmen, was exhibited at Seymour, Victoria. Two of them left for Melbourne, leaving the third to look after Bruin. The bear became intractable, broke the chain which confined him, and is now loose, locked up in the stable of the Prince of Wales Hotel. He is perfectly savage, and will not allow anyone to come near him. The animal will have to be shot, unless the men come back and assist their comrade to overcome him. The other men, it is sup posed, quarrelled, and will not return.

Boasted Alive.

At Shepparton, Victoria, on Sunday a Chinaman met with a fearful death. He was suffering from a cold and bronchitis, and had been brought to a low ebb. His condition was known, but it seems that he was unaccountably left without attendance. He was discovered dead and literally roasted. The body was resting on the fire, and the wrappings were still burning. It is surmised that, feeling cold, the poor fellow left his bed and approached the fire, and that, being weak from, illness, he fell into the flames.

JUBILEE NOTES.

I_ite__est__-g Ite___>- About tlie

JuMee

(from our special correspondent.)

London, June 24. The distribution of seats within Westmin ster Abbey for Jubilee Day was (despite the care taken) not at all well managed, and led to any amount of polite envy, hatred, and malice. The preference given to Americans over Australians and Anglo- Indians more especially caused endless ill feeling. One fair Yankee—for tho time being high in favour at Marlborough House - was able to boast the possession of no loss than three invitation cards, whilst numerous English peeresses were unable to secure even single tickets by hook or crook. " I wouldn't go to the Abbey if I were asked, "quoth an unsuccessful applicant with whom the grapes wero sour, to a more fortunate friend. " You know you are quite sure to be dynamited." " Nothing I should liko better," replied the lucky lady, not the least disconcerted. " I have always had an ambition to be buried in West minster Abbey, and this seems to be my only chance of having* my wish gratified."_ The catering for the children's fete in Hyde Park was undertaken by the famous Anglo-Australian firm — Spiers & Pond. The victuals included 60,000 buns, 30,000 meat pies, 30,000 cakes, 30,000 oranges, and 9,000 gallons of lemonade and ginger beer. An arithmetician present calculated that if the buns, pies, cakes and oranges could be placed in a lino they would extend to a dis tance of nine miles and a half.

The heroine of the children's fete in Hyde Park was a phenomenal infant named Frances Dunn, who has been a Board School pupil for seven long years without ever missing an attendance. In recognition of this good conduct the little girl was selected by the authorities to receive from the Queen's own hand, on behalf of her com panions - what think you ?—Why, a Jubilee mug ! The Prince of Wales himself good naturedly led up the trembling little one to Her Majesty, who kissed her and spoke a tow kindly words of praise. The Crown Princess of Germany and Princess Beatrice likewise added their quota of compliment, so that altogether it was a great moment for Miss Dunn. She has barely turned thirteen, but one may safely prophesy that she will never again rub shoulders with so many royalties at once. The King of Den mark and Greece were particularly in terested in tho proceedings, and asked numerous questions as to the meaning of the good-conduct medals which the child wore strung across her blue blouse. The fete' iLself was from first to last a tremendous success, the dismal prophecies of the "Pall Mall Gazette" being con spicuously falsified. The 30,000 children came and went in as orderly and systematic a manner as an army of soldiers, and so ex cellent were all the arrangements that beyond the trampled grass the Park itself has not suffered at all. Amongst the amusements supplied were 20 Punch and Judys, S Marionette theatres, 86 peep shows, 9 troops of performing dogs and monkeys, hundreds of Aunt Sallys and bowls, 1,000 skipping ropes with Jubilee handles, 10,000 balloons, and 4*2,000 small prizes in addition to the renowned Jubilee

mugs. The Queen was much affected the by un speakably genuine enthusiasm of the vast crowds which greeted her at Hyde Park Corner, Trafalgar Square, and Waterloo Place, and it was noticed that the tears sprang to her eyes again and again. A correspondent ot the " Evening News ,: says :—" It was noticed by many, although not recorded, that tears came to the Queen's eyes again and again when the cheers of the people burst forth to welcome her ; but as Her Majesty came into Dean's Yard before the Abbey one may well believe that her thoughts were carried back to tho ceremony which had taken place there fifty years before, for she did not attempt to restrain the tears of womanly feeling. "Again, in the Abbey, when Thanks giving was over, and the solemn organ tones stilled, and when, one after the other, the relatives and connections of the Royal House came up to salute tlie Queen, Her Majesty was evidentally affected. But when the turn came to the Grand Duke of Hesse, the husband of the lost daughter, Alice, for whom the Queen still cherishes the deepest love, Her Majesty broke down altogether. As he, bowing kissed her hand, and as her lips touched his cheek, the Queen was quite unable to control the passion of sorrow. Quietly afterwards she wiped the tears away and went on with the ceremonial which to her represented, no doubt, not only the fulfilment of many hopes, but also the realisation of many soitows. While the Queen was weeping, the Royal princes, quite unconsciously as it seemed, bent their heads in unfeigned reverence. " One touch of nature makes the Avhole world kin !" It seems to me that this incident in yesterday's ceremonial deserves to be recorded. Let history deal with it as it will, I am certain that no one who witnessed it, and no one who reads of it, can realise all it must have meant without feeling that in those tears lies the true significance of the poet's phrase, that the Royal lady who wears " the white flower of a blameless life . must inevitably find that her Throne is, indeed, ' broad based upon the people's will."

The Women's Jubilee -Offering

The Women's Jubilee offering of L 75,000 was presented to Her Majesty by a repre sentative body of 200 ladies on Wednesday afternoon.

The Women's Jubilee present takes the form of an equestrian statue of the late Prince Consort, to be raised in Windsor Park, in the place known as Smith's Lawn. It will be a replica of the famous statue in Glasgow, and the Queen has expressed her desire that the foundation-stone of the monument shall be laid by herself on July 14. In addition to the statue, the funds will admit of a large amount being handed over to some charitable purpose, not yet decided upon. In all over L 75,000 has been collected, and before the subscrip tions close it is expected that the sum will amount to LBO,OOO. There was in all about three million subscribers, 1,600,414 in England contributing on the average 7^d per head ; 346,217 in Scotland, at sfd per head; 149,346 in Ireland, at s|d; and 125,438 in Wales at 4jd. Other parts of the Empire also contributed; 26,174 in Burmah sending 9,134 rupees. With the gift was presented a beautiful address on vellum, fringed in gold, and adorned with the Royal Arms, the dates 1837-1887, and the arms of London, Liver pool, Glasgow, Dublin.

Most of the crack London clubs presented their servants with a year's wages, in honour of the Jubilee.

The town of Chipping-Sodbury, in Glou cestershire, can boast the possession of a genuine Jubilee virgin of ninety-five years of age, who ia halo «._u_ hearty, and can vividly recall the rejoicings in honour of the 50th anniversary of George lll.'s reign. Mistress Jane Woodward—for such is her name—was then a damsel of sweet seven teen. She took part in tho local festivities of Tuesday last, and created an immense sensation by wearing the very same coal scuttle bonnet she wore in 1809. The old lady had carefully preserved it, " laid up in lavender," for seventy-eight years. Amongst the edible presents accepted by the Queen may be mentioned a mammoth Royal sturgeon from tho Volga, a Jubilee cucumber of leviathan proportions, and a monster afternoon tea oake, weighing over a Quarter of a ton ana standing ten feet

high. The latter was the humble offering of Gunter and Co . the reno.vned Berkeley Square confectioners. It took two months to make, and cost L2OO. Most of the London Theatres were closed on Jubilee night. Those that remained open started their performance between 4 and 6 in the afternoon so that the audiences got out in plenty of time for the illumina tions. The most popular of Jubilee engagements is unquestionably that of the fair Mary Anderson to her handsome jeune 'premier, Forbes Robertson. Young Robertson, who is Mrs Kendal's brother and a son of the famous dramatist, T. W. Robertson, first made his name as amomber of the Bancroft's company at the Haymarket. He has for some years past shared with Harry Conway and Terris the reputation of being the most " mashed " man on the stage. His fascina tions must indeed be irresistible, since the icy Mimi has succumbed to them. 'The Pope's Jubilee present to the Queen is one of the finest pieces of Roman mosaic ever seen. It is a perfect reproduction of Raphael's representation of poetry in the Stanza della Segnatura, which is one of the most marvellous art treasures of the Vatican. I saw the picture when in Rome some weeks ago, and can well imagine that to reproduce it in mosaic must have taken (it is stated) two men nearly two years. The Jubilee has been a profitable business for the gas companies and titters and timber merchants. Carpenters and decorators, too, have made "pots " of money out of it. The cost of erecting stands on the line of the procession alone is (allowing for wood that can be used again) estimated at more thanL2o,ooo.

PRECEPTS.

In Poetry and Prose.

Three littlo maids from school are wo, Proper and good as we ought to be ; Tho reason why you will shortly see : Three littlo maids from school.

Three little maids, delighted very, Laughing always so bright and merry ; Every one with a " Waterbury :" Three little maids from school.

Time is money. But before the Water bury Watch was introduced it was impos sible to say how much. Now everybody knows that Time is 13s 6d. The great popularity of the Waterbury Watch is still further enhanced by tlie fact that it can be repaired at a less cost than any other watch in the world

The Waterbury Watch is not alono the cheapest watch in the world to buy, but it is also the cheapest to have repaired. Re pairs are charged for according to require ment, but in no caso do they exceed 2s 6d, except by mutual agreement.

The Waterbury would not bo the cheapest watch in the world if it could not be repaired cheaply when required. The Company undertakes this responsibility at a nominal cost, never exceeding 2s 6d, except by mutual agreement.

Why should I give £5 or £10 for a watch that has to be perpetually undergoing re pairs, and at the best of times cannot be relied on, when I can buy a perfectly re liable, strong, and handsome Waterbury Watch for 13s Od ?

The Waterbury Watch has nothing to fear from ridicule, nothing to dread from exposure. It is just what it claims to be— A strong, handsome, serviceable, well finished timekeeper, and defies competi tion.

The Waterbury Watch is ruining the profession of the pickpocket. He has to expend just as much skill on the annexa tion of a Waterbury as he does on a 100 ---guinea gold chronometer. But its intrinsic value is so small that he cannot realise. It won't melt.
