TABLE TALK.

" Patience " afc the Opera House. H.M.S. Nelson comes to Auckland

shortly.

King Tawhiao has reached the Bay of Plenty.

After he and his followers have feasted for jome weeks, it will bo " Poverty Bay."

Shouldn't wonder; lie has already senb some of the tag-rag-and-bobtail back to their homes, because there isn't jolenty feed, for them. . • *

Jubilee " row " in Sydney. Auckland in quietly preparing for tha coming illuminations. The (Jovernor of Victoriahas issued 3,000 invitations to a Jubilee ball.

Oh, but Sir Henry Loch is to have all his Jubilee entertainment expenses paid out of the public fund.?. The Parliamentary buildings of Brisbane aro to be illuminated on Jubilee nighb afc a Co3t, of L 650.

Some folks think that Vaile'a system of faros ehould have had a trial on the Auok-, land railways during Jubilee. BusinoßS slack at the Police Court: saving up for the Jubilee "bust!" Russian railways are adopting peafc as a fuel in locomotives. The genius who dis covered that it saves 50 percent, over wood, or coal is fondly called by his countrymen "peatcrtho Orate." Annual meeting of Auckland Chess Club to-night, Polling for election of a City Councillor today; prospect of Parsons being re turned.

A parson in the City Council might lead the City Fathers to mend their ways. Sir Robert Hamilton is not making him self popular as Covernor of Tasmania. He does nob a3k Tom, Dick and Harry to hi 3 levees, and the arrangements at Govern ment .House are said to be parsimonious. A .Roman Catholic clergyman refused to be sworn on the Bible in the New town Police Court, Sydney, the other day. Colestial pyrotechnical. display iv honour of l.he Jubilee. . <

What! arc the Chinkies going to "juble"? No. About a quarter to. ]0 o'clock last night, an unusually bright meteoric light passed across the heavens from north to south. It was followed by a trail of red sparks at its vanishing point. Wicked and windy Wellington again !

Two divorces granted there yesterday ; nisi in the case or Nelson v. Nel.oon (hus band's petition), and absolute in Norris v. Norris (wife's petition).

A Sydney paper, says, " A more success ful lago than Mr Locke Richardson's hag not been seen in Sydney, even with sur roundings of stage accessoriep."

Mr Justice .Johnston has refused a new trial in the Timaru libel case, IV bs \\ Kerr.

Stormy and wet weather at Dunedin

It is complained that the Professors ab Sydney University have each to eke out an existence on a miserable pittance of from £1,200 to £1,700. A brother of Lord Lonsdale has been senb to gaol for a month for horse-whipping a creditor to whom he owed 15s 9d. " Our old nobility !" John Atkinson and John Hunter have been.committed for trial for robbing a man of LC in the streets of Dunedin.

Mr Scobio Mackonzic;the" coming man " in the New Zealand .PaiTTament ,is a very wealthy squatter, and an advocate for re trenchment and reform.

Owns and edits a newspaper just for fun, I believe. Most journalists are millionaires in disguise. Just; before the recent no-confidence division, Mr Rolleston was sent to" en deavour to influence Mr Moss's vote against) tho Government. That " honest. Injin," however, didn't see it, and round (lie lobbies went the venerable witticism about a Holies ton gathering no Moss. Venerable, did you say ? It is more than venerable. It is more ancient than a rail way refreshment room pie, and is by some attributed to Romulus and Remus.

It is one of the class of jokes that would "Send aqnivoring spasm through Tarawera'a

chasm To the primal protoplasm of the pre-historio

years,

A statue of the Queen has been ordered for the pedestal in King-sti'cot, Sydney. Ita price is to be L 3,000, and the sculptor ia Mr Boehm.

It is yet undecided whether Forwood tha solicitor will be sent back to Auckland by the Victorian authorities.

Greyniouth Education Board had an all night sitting on Tuesday, discussing tho question of retrenchment. Their expendi ture has been £600 over income. '■

Richard Goss, Joseph Benson, Richard Burns, John Burns, William Marriott, and P. Harvey, were yesterday committedI'for trial at Wellington on the charge of conspir ing to coerce a non-unionist bootmaker iiito leaving work.

Another proof that the shoemaker should Btick to his last!

The Tichborne case is* being revived, arid witnesses from Australia aro being invited to London.

Mr Spurgeon states that there were moij'e crimes committed in London during the past six months than in the whole of Ireland, t'oriH^s&mepp,i;iqcl. [ '..'■' '."'"'"'^^Z;?"', '"'''■ A one-year old child strayedon to the railway line Newcastle, New South Wales, the other day.arid while 'brawling on tho rails a passing train cut 'off both the poor little creature's hands.
