TABLE TALK

Stormy weather, eh? Foretaste of winter. Captain Edwin's department; was 6eS<' troyed by the big fire at Wellington yes terday.

Ho, ho ! Now thafc the weather prophet is out in the cold, we may expect lots of bad weather.

Very few people at the Free Art Exhibit tion.

The " noble art" is more in their line. Yes ; we have still great need to " mova upward, working out the brute." Work out what brute —the tram-cat horse ?

There you are again with your stupid questions. There are to be no Sunday tram-cars in Auckland. ■

Good job too ! Let- the Tramway Com pany's horses and men have a rest on Sun day like other folks.

And compel other folks to do a lot of walking whon they might be resting in a tram-car, oh ? ■ '

Rather singular when you come to think of it, that the president of the Associated Bootmakers should have been with the anti tram deputation. Oh no, the more people walk the better for the knights of St. Crispin. Another funny thing was the fact that lots of people who keep their own trap or carriage signed the petition against Sunday trams.

_ Still these people might reasonably ob ject to increasing Sunday labour. That's all bunkum ! Ifc would only take eight men's labour to give the city and suburbs a first-class tram-car service on Sundays, whereas there's double that num ber of men engaged drivyig our nabobs to church on the day of rest. And those " nabobs " actually signed the petition to deprive tho poor man of a Sun day ride, eh ? Yes; and one of them drives oub regularly on Sunday for pleasure, while an other is a director in * the Ferry Com pany that runs Sunday boats. A well-known Auckland tradesman jusb " saved his bacon " last night. Who? What? '

Bettany, of " unemployed " and ham and bacon fame, was found hanging on to a' kauri log in Freeman's Bay, and had a very narrow esoajxj from drowning. Tell me more ! Oh, you'll find full particulars in another column.

Curious cause of death in Otago recently. A settler died from inhaling the fumes of phosphorised oats.

Indeod ; almost as mysterious as the Parnell beefsteak pie case. Jubilee meeting to-night. You're goim» of course. "

Certainly ; as a loyal subject I must at tend and givo my suggestion as to the best mode of celebrating the Jubilee. An Invercargill shoemaker is going to " juble " properly ; he will give a pair of boots to evory baby born in Southland from I2th April to 21st June next. The most original suggestion I have seen, however, ia that of a Wellington" genius, who suggests "the establfs'hment of an institution for the gradual elimination of all still lingering conditions opposed to the inherent co-operative or regulative tendency of the higher elements of the human mind, in order to r»ve the way for a national and unirersnl mmdeducation, -which will remove mankind further a-way from the harsh lines upon which, and up to the recent past, the animated world necessarily rose." That sounds well, but what does it mean? Hanged if I know ; but that's where the originality of the thing comes in ! An oqually originaf but Intelligible and sensible proposal is that of Mr T. B. Hill, of Auckland. He is planting a clump of chestnut trees as a memorial of the Jubilee, and he advises settlers to do the same, while he thinks Parliament might also vote a sum for tree-planting on some public reserve thafc could eventually be turned, when needed, into a kind of home farm for any of our aged settlers who may require it.

A splendid suggestion; but too far seeing and patriotic to be adopted, I fear. Yes ; the Melbourne idea of a grand flare-up is likely to be more popular. The public buildings of Melbourne are to be lib up with coloured fire for five hours on the night of 21st June.

Auckland draught players are expected to turn out in force at Newton < Baths to morrow night. Ah, I see ; it is with the object of prac ticing the game, so that some of our local "dons" may bo able to play the Herd Laddie when he comes here.

Ah.it will only he play. I fancy he can play (like a tabby cat with a mouse) with any one of them.

I see that Wylie is now in Melbourne, giving exhibitions of his skill. They call him the Herd Laddie because everybody has " herd " of him, I suppose ? No, stupid ; but because he learned to play the " dambrod" when he was a shep herd boy in the old Caledonia. , ■" unemployed" >~hav.e jbeen leaving for Sydney lately.-Do you know what their fate will be ther§ ? ,

Just a drop in the bucketful'of'men on roliof works ; there are over 2,000 men on Government works in New South Wales, earning an average of 3s lOd a day. Strikes me our irorkingmen would have been botter here, instead of going further and faring worse !

Ah Pin got thrge months at Sydney Central Court the other day for stealing £5 from Ah On.

These Chinese are noted thieves. You remember what the sacred poet says of them—" It is Ah Sin to steal Ah Pin !"

Oh, dry up ! You make me feel as mad as if I had been sitting (Ah) on Ah Pin
