PRICE-ONE PENNY.

TABLE TALK.

Parliament opened today

Big " t«ilkee-tall;ee " started

Every member must speak to his. con stituents through ''Hansard."

Major Atkinson and Hon. G. M. Water house are expected to be knighted.

They may well be sick of "hope de ferred." ior this honour has Jong been held cut to them.

Lord Dunraven will, it is said, shortly visit Australasia.

He was formerly {Under-Secretary for the colonies, wasn't he?

Yes ; and having learnt his own ignorance of colonial affair,?, is coming put to get in structed.

P& contra, Sir Robert Stout has been directing the English people a3 to their foreign policy. Yon mean that article of his in which he tells the Home Government that the first step towards Imperial federation is for England to gink from the position, of a Evu'ofJGfin Power. ■■;» That's"- it. "What is it," asks Sir Robert, "to Great .Britain who occupies Constantinople— whether Russia, Turkey or Austria ':"

A very pertinent question, too, and one that many prominent English Statesmen have been askinjr. Tram-cars run on Sundays in Dunedin, uellinprtonancl Cbristchiirch • why not in Audi land ''.

What a stupid query! Because other folks are foolish and wicked, is there any reason why we .-bould ioJJow their bad example ? J see you are prejudiced, and probably glory in the superior sanctity of Auckland. Jb> very evident you have no shares in the company.

Well, there's at least one shareholder who .'hares my view. .At St. John's Wetleyau Chinch on Sunday last, when the Rev.*H. Bull announced that a petition would be found outeide to the City Council, praying them to refuse the request made by the Tramway Company to have the trams run on Sunday, Mr W. Thorne, solicitor, rose and said he was'jvjad to hear the announce ment ; that lie was a large shareholder in the Tramway Company, but that he en tirely disapproved of the proposal to run the cars on Sunday.

Meetings of householders of aducational districts all over the country last night. Yes; and with the exception of that breeze ot Nelson-street created by a well known ducal personage, they have passed over very quietly. Looking over the reports it strikes me that the Devonport vSchbol, under Mr Benge, takes the cake for real go-a-headism. Ah ! in what way ? Why—thusly. The committee have only an annual revenue of £70, and yet by means of proceeds derived from entertainment and backed up by committee grant?;, the" Head master lias managed to found a capital school library, to' establish a natural science collection or museum, and is now directing his energies towards the formation of a brass band among the senior scholars.

Bravo, Benge ! • Ridiculous ruling at one of the meetings —that nobody could vote unless he was present the whole time.

Oh, it's a ridiculous system of voting alto gether, and I -wonder the ratepayers tolerate it. ' ' \ " '; ■ ' . '-■'■'■■

It has got one merit—We" cheap— and that's something in these hard times ! The Faith Healer has run against another rock of offence by declaring that Free masons are all "gluttons and drunkards." That's all humbug ; but I guess Mr Dowio will make more breaches than he will ever heal. "

Mysterious affair at Wellington yester day-a bullet fired into a house coming near hitting a child.

Some frisky Volunteers at target practice, probably.

What do you think of the proposal to liberate a lot of well-behaved long-sentence prisoners this blessed year of Jubilee ?

" Tommy Dodd—Tommy Dodd !"

Explain yourself, mysterious man ! Do you mean to say— '

That Hall is a well-behaved, long-sen tenced prisoner, and that I shrewdly sus pect he would be one of the first to get the benefit of the decree of liberty. Wait and s-ee if I'm not right.
