TABLE TALK.

Weather moderating.- Good job, or we should all have been washed away.- Either" by the rain Or the high tide, I

suppose. High tied—-Married In a balloon, don' 6 you see ?

I really thought the North Shore folks would require balloons to come to the city yesterday.

There was a severe shock of earthquake at Maketu on Sunday night. Ah, that Austrian weather prophet was not far astray ! . The shock was preceded by loud rumb ling from White Island, and lasted about seven seconds.- There have also been very heavy rains and high tides at Maketu. Archbishop Redwood plays tho fiddle. Not the " wee, wicked, skirlin', dancin' fiddle," surely ? Why not? That would be nothingl' against his character ; though, to be sure, Nero played the fiddle, and so does.the Duko of Edinburgh ! I didn't mean to insinuate anything. " It's only what I've been told, you know?'* The borough of Devonport; will have a water supply by next summer; Some re ligious people think the high tide of yester day was a " judgment " upon the Council for their impious attempt to pump the; Waitemata dry. The borough of Tauranga proposes to' erect a Jubilee pump and town well. A fancy dress masquerade ball is proposed to be held in Auckland on Jubilee Day. Who wants expensive balls these dull times ?

.. rho doesn't ? Why, I know a fellow who went to three balls last week.

His uncle's, I suppose ; and very expen« Hive balls he would find them.

Nowton Borough Council have no loan liability, and a credit balance at the bank.

Whew ! They are not a religious body, I fear.

But the V.M.C.A. is. The latter body has got a building and a debt as big as any church in the place, and are taking the approved church method of raising funds. Sale of work opened to-day, ancl poetical, artistic, and cookery competitions in full swing. Glad to think that they draw the line aft lotteries. Sorry that the Newton Council should be so backward in going forward. It's a token of respectability to be in debt) - shows that you're trusted. They may be ploying a deeper game. Don't you see that the Dunedin City Council arc about to " raise the wind " in a new fashion ?

No ; what is it 1

They ask Parliament to give them power to "receive money on deposit." Perhaps Newton will take* a leaf fi'om their book and start a savings bank, borrowing tho deposits for the purpose of making streets, &c.

Oh, Parliament will never sanction ths scheme; it would be direct opposition to the Post Office Savings Banks. And a breach of faith with the English money-lenders, besides. Why, the public bodies have already pledged their full rating power ..as security for loans of £4,76 _, 300 for borouglumd harbour works. In that caso, no harm_ would bo done by giving Borough CouiicilFpower to receive money on deposit. One donkey power would suffice to lift all they would receive. About seventy people have attached them, selves to the new heresy of faith-healing. We are like tho Athenians of Paul's clay always after something new. Those exten sion works at the Whau are going on all right.

A fashion paper says " undressed kid is tho favourite material for slippers." Woll, in our houso slippers aro not a favourite material with the undressed kid !

Some interest in Samoan matters has been evoked at Wellington. I hear that an English Company have acquired a lot of Samoan lands. There will be more heard of those islands before long. Miss Ada Campbell, Frecthoughtlecturcss, has had a very successful tour; in the South, and is now at Wellington en route to Auck land to join the mail steamer for San Fran cisco.

These people have been very quiet here of late. Wonder if Miss Ada wiUgivcus a lecture on " Faith Healing ?" Dr. Wright, from England, has taken up his abode at Te Aroha.

Lord Aberdeen was given a free pass over tho New Zealand railways by the Govern ment.

Don't know whether he used it, though. I see His Lordship officiated at the Church service at Rotorua on Sunday last. They invited him to go to Wellington and hear a Parliamentary debate, but he prefers to remain in hot water.

The Countess of Aberdeen still keeps up her interest in the higher education of women in Ireland, and lias given a yearly exhibition to Alexandra College, the pre scribed course being in English and French.

More power to her ! She may tell us something about her labours before she leaves the colony.

Beljringei. and circus performances tO -ft,..,.-• ... . And an Irish concert iH Bt. James's Hall in aid of the cemetery fund.
