THE QUEEN'S RECORD REIGN IN
NEW ZEALAND,
Aramoho, near Whanganui, New Zealand
As I first saw the light in Bedford, a stray
thought has prompted me that some of your
numerous readers might be interested to know
the manner in which the Queen's Jubilee was
kept in this far-away land. Holding a posi-
tion under the New Zealand Government, my
lot is cast in an up-country place. This
district is called the home of the Maoris. We
are now in mid-winter, and it is a beautiful
morning with just a tinge of frost. The birds
are singing, and, Io! the mighty snow-clad
volcano (Ruapehu) mountain is in sight; the
sun is beaming on us kindly, and doubtless
as the day advances it may throw out of our
dormant natures a sudden burst of enthusism.
The Maoris are to be the prevailing spirits.
When they take anything in hand it has to go,
and with a great noise, too. They are gather-
ing their strength from their up-river settle-
ments for some weeks past. They are now
camping alongside of the great river here,
and great excitement is in their camp.
Numbers of them are coming down the river
in their quaint canoes, hewn out of the largest
trees. Wending my way down to the small
seaport town of Wanganui, where the festivities
are to be held, a wondrous sight meets the eye.
Hark! the procession is just starting. First,
the advance guard of the Alexandra Cavalry;
at their heels come three Highland pipers.
The garrison band lead the volunteers; then
the boys' college tableaux, with a large ever-
green Crown, mounted on a decorated dray,
drawn by a team of ten bullocks. Truly
Colonial! Next come the school children,
and very bright and happy they look, each
carrying a flag of various colours. The Sal-
vation Army's band plays a most stirring
march; behind them the bravest and the best
come along—56 veterans, all of whom hold
the New Zealand war medals, and some the
Victoria Cross. These were the men to burst
a road through all difficulties. The railway
station is reached, a halt is made to receive
the Wairoa mounted infantry, who arrive
just in time to join the procession. The fire
brigade look smart in their scarlet uniforms,
as do the Friendly Societes, especially the
Druids. The Arch and his Officers are seated
on a dais, with a large tree overspreading
them, and the members who follow in their
long white beards make a most impressive
sight. The boating clubs represent the land-
ing of Captain Cook. Now comes the
principal sight—the Maori contingent, with
their great war canoe, mounted on old gun
carriages. The Waitotara Maori band of 26
! performers, followed by 300 Maoris, all in
their wild war dress, carry their various
weapons. There is Major Kemp (a Maori),
dressed in full regimentals, and wearing the
sword presented to him by Queen Victoria.
i Seated in the canoe are the oldest warrior
chiefs, all beautifully tatooed, and holding
their war flags. The butchers' and freezing
companies' display, the bakers, brewers,
laundry, sash and door factory hands, and the
cycle clubs swell the ranks. In the avenue
leading to the New Hospital oak trees are
planted by the Mayoress. They move on,
pass the principal streets, reach the Green,
where a halt is made, and the school children
and bands join in the National Anthem.
Then we give three cheers, very thin staccato
ones, like streaks of lightning. Then, sir,
the Maoris had the magic signal from their
chief to give three royal cheers for Queen
Victoria. Good heavens! what a terrible
I noise. I can only liken it to a tremendous
burst of thunder. The ground (being pumice
and sand) shook like an earthquake. The
shout from these 16 and 17 stone-weight
people seemed to pierce the sky. One Maori
woman, whom I noticed, took in a deep
breath, and from her magnificent chest burst
forth such a grand round, sustained note that
it is doubtful if the highly trained singers of
Europe could eclipse it. In the afternoon we
i were to be treated to a grand war dance from
the Maoris on the racecourse, and a sham
fight by the Volunteers. The war dance is
now only given on very rare occasions, and
this was witnessed by 1, 500 people, which
means in this thinly populated district a great
crowd, About 2 o'clock the various bands,
with the Volunteers and Maoris, arrived on
the racecourse. First on the programme was
the famous war dance. Ah me! how shall I

The Jubilee, Tuesday, Feb. 1, 1898. [2] Te Tiupiri, Pepuere 1, 1898,
describe it. These 300 Maoris, both men
and women, and most of them tatooed, were
half naked, to give more freedom to their
limbs. They range themselves in a body,
patiently wait for the signal, as their chiefs
are supposed to be out reconnoitering, and
from behind a fence they burst on them like
red-hot shells. Then the principal chief
waved his hands over them and breathed on
them, and as if by magic they are all turned
to fiends, highly charged with magnetism.
He commences a little harangue; then comes
the response from the whole body of them—a
most unearthly yell. This is the defiance.
Oh! it was terrible. They begin to work
their bodies and limbs slowly at first, just to
get up steam. Now they are getting very
excitable, their eye balls roll fearfully, and
they scream dreadfully. Up and down go
their feet, while they slap their thighs with
their left hand, all beautifully to time to a
most dismal chant. They soar up to a tre-
mendous crescendo, and gradually fall in
' diminuendo, while they surge about like the
restless ocean this way and that way, their
tongues rolling about, with froth at the mouth,
quaking and drawing in their breath hideously.
Up fly their weapons in the air, and the fierce-
ness and hate that shone from them was—
sublime. The applause that fell from the on-
lookers was deafening. Some of these very
living Maoris were only a few years back
cannibals. Afterwards come the Poi dance
by young Maori girls, and this was very
pretty. Now for the sham fight from the
Volunteers. The Mounted Rifles formed the
attacking force. The defenders were composed
of the Boys' School Cadets and 100 Navals,
under the command of Lieut. M. Niel, of
Aramoho. The fight was opened by the
Naval scouts, engaging the Mounted Rifles
very creditably The march-past was creditably
done. At four in the afternoon the shades of
eve were stealing on, so the Royal Salute was
fired with hats in the air, three ringing cheers
for Victoria, and the sun went down on one of.
the most pleasant days that I can remember.
The Town Council of Whanganui spent £100
on fireworks, which were manufactured in the
colony. In the evening a grand illuminated
procession went through the principal streets.
Noticeable was a tableau representing an
incident at the battle of the Alma; also a fine
one of the course where the firework display
took place; the rockets and set pieces were
very fine, especially one to Queen Victoria,
and while it was burning the National Anthem
. was sung. Then came a view of the town
illuminations, which were very good indeed,
especially the town lamp with its large crown.
The bridge, too, was very brilliant. And it
came to pass as I journeyed down to the quay
that I lighted on a certain old building, which
was used in the old days as a coach factory.
On looking within I saw that the Maoris were
at it again. They were still grievously
tormented with Taipo (their devil). They
were giving the poor, old wood floor pepper,
(poor things, they'd had a little drink on this
memorable occasion). After waiting for the
cable which conveyed to us the cheering news
of the National Anthem at St. Paul's, London,
the bonfires blaze away on the mountains, and
the church bells are ringing peal after peal.
So in the small hours on my homeward way I
pass the Maori encampment.... I
pause... all is hushed to. sleep. The
beautiful moon is shedding its soothing rays
on them. It is calm, and delightfully quiet.
For, Io! the evil spirit has departed from out
of them. [The contributor of the above

Kempston, and of Mr H. Bull, Harpur-street,

HOW TO CURE WARTS.
IT is now fairly established that the common
wart, which is so unsightly and often proliferous on
the hands and face, can be easily removed by small
doses of sulphate magnesia taken internally. Mr
Colart of Lyons has drawn attention to this extra-
ordinary fact. Several children treated with three-
grain doses of Epsom salts, morning and evening
were promptly cured. M. Auberns cites the case of
a woman whose face was disfigured by these execres-
cences, and who was cured in a month by a drachm
and a half of magnesia taken daily. Another
medical man reports a case of very large warts
which disappeared in a fortnight from the daily
administration of ten grains of the salts. We might
mention that we have seen the above cure tried with
good effect, and recommend a trial.

THE GARRISON BANDS.
A most enthusiastic reception awaited our band
on their return from Napier last Saturday night.
On the exit of our boys from the train, three deafen-
ing cheers were given by the hundreds assembled
at the station. They then marched ta the Drill
Hall, playing part of the way the march which
brought them victorious in the quick inarch con-
test, followed by another rattling quick step. They
had a good time, and speak in excellent terms of
the treatment received at the hands of the Napier
people. The following honours were secured,
| much to their credit, seeing the short time they
have been under the conductorship of Conductor
Crichton :
OUR BOWLERS.
Our Bowlers also returned after doing good
work for the honour of Whanganui, having tied
with Palmerston N. for the banner, won by our
team last year, In playing off, Palmerston N.
proved too many for Whanganui. Nevertheless, our
team showed themselves steady and consistent
players. It will be observed on occasions when
Whanganui takes part in sport or contests of what-
ever nature, we are not to be held too cheap, either
at home or abroad.

Ite turei kua hori ake nei ko te Mararoa Tima,
kua riro mai i te kamupene i runga ake nei, ara he
kamupene tenei i whakaturia i te taone ake nei. Ko
te utu £3, 500. Ko te nui o te moni a tenei
kamupene £20, 000. E 4, 000 hea i runga i te £5.
Mo ia hea kotahi. Ko tenei kamupene he mea
whakatu na nga tino tangata o Whanganui, a e tino
mahara ana matau i raro i te kaha o ta ratou whaka-
haere, tera ka tutuki atu kite waimarie i mua ia
ratau, he mea tika matatau ake e tautoko tenei
whakaaro nui, ara hei awhina i te kamupene, hei
painga ano hoki tera kia tatau, ko nga pikaunga e
taea e te mararoa 140 tana. Ko te whakaaro o te
kamupene e kore e roa rawa, ka tango mai ano i
tetahi atu Tima e tae ana ki te 250 tana, a tera e
tino whakapaia, kia tino pai rawa hei pikau tangata,
ko taua Tima e kore e hohonu tona tere i roto i te
wai, ko te, tere o tona haere i roto i te haora 14
maero, ko nga rama he uira.
ADVANCE WHANGANUI.
WHANGANUI STEAMSHIP COMPANY.
On Tuesday last the s. s. " Manaroa '' was taken
over by the above locally formed company. The
capital is £20, 000 in 4000 shares of £5 each. Her
price is £3, 500. The company is formed by the
business men of Whanganui, and we feel confident
under their management, success is before them.
It behoves us now to support this long wanted
venture, as by assisting the company we will at the
Same time be assisting ourselves. The " Manaroa's
carrying capacity is 140 tons. It is the intention of
the company, within a short time, to obtain a boat
of about 250 tons, which will be fitted up in first-
class style for passengers. The boat will have light
draught with a speed of 14 miles per hour and fitted
up with electric light.
At a sale in Paris the other day, a splendid dish
of rare old Rouen ware fetched £304. It was
twenty inches in diameter, and was beautifully
painted with Cupids and flowers. There are some
very fine specimens of this china in the private
apartments at Windsor Castle.
In the town of Veroyonsk, Siberia, the thermome-
ter ranges from fifty to eighty-six below zero. The
residents never bathe. Their windows are made of
ice. A clear piece is selected, about five or six
inches thick, mortised in the window openings in
blocks of two feet, and sometimes as large as four,
and with water is made solid. The water is as good
as putty. When the window becomes dirty they
scrape it off with a knife, and when it has been
scaped thin, they substitute a new pane.

Hui, kia rongo kite kupu a te Kingi, no te mea, na
te kotahitanga i whakaae i Poneke, tae mai hoki
kia maua ko taku tipuna, ae ka haere te kotahi-
tanga kite Hui a te Kingi. Tenei ano te titiro iho
nei ki te pire a Waikato e takoto nei i te aroaro o
te Paremata, me te Pitihana a te kotahitanga patai.

o te iwi Maori. Ka rua ai enei take, kei o tatau
aroaro, ko te mea e rapu nei toku ngakau, ko te
whakakotahitanga i enei kupu e rua, ko te makanga
ranei i tetahi o enei take ki waho, ka tu tahi rane-
enei take e rua, ko taku titiro ma te kotahi anake
o te haere a nga iwi o nga motu e rua nei e kotahi

Waenganui o te huihuinga tangata.
Na koutou nga taonga i whakatakoto kite aroaro
o te kotahitanga, heoi taku me oku (Ladies)- komiti

puta noa i ou rohe katoa, ko tenei whakaaro
ma tatau, kaore ano nga motu e rua nei i kotahi
noa te haere i runga i te whakaaro kotahi, no reira
