Local and General
In our report of the Ikamatua concert in yesterday’s issue, the young lady’s name, whose recital was so excellently rendered, was Miss Newell, and not Neville, as appeared in the report.
A press telegram, received this morning conveys the mournfull intelligence that Mr T.Phelps, formerly of this town, was accidentally killed at Palmerston North. He was in the act of stepping on to a train while the latter was in motion, and was precipitated under the wheels and killed instantaneously. In common with many others we express our great regret, for this shocking termination to a young and useful life. Mr T.Phelps was well-known in Reefton, having been a resident here almost from his infancy, and was for many years in the employ of Mr W.Roberts, farmer.
Other names mentioned in this section include:
- Mr E.A.Haggen, Editor of the Wellington weekly, People.
- Dr Findlay (mentioned in the article about the People)
- E.J.Scantlebury, Chemist (this must be one of the first ever advertorials – it is in the news section and is not a separate advert.)
TELEGRAMS
Wellington, July 31.
Mr McLean, who formerly represented Wellington, will contest the City at the general election.
To-day a Maori girl, aged about ten years, named Teuru Noahina, was severely burnt about the hands, face, neck and body, through her clothes catching fire. She was putting water into the boiler of a house occupied by a native chief named Mahupuka, one of whose tribe she belongs to, when her apron caught fire, and the girl rushing out of the house was soon enveloped in flames. Captain Russell, M.H.R., was passing at the time and promptly took off his overcoat and wrapped it around the girl, thus smothering the flames, and by his decisive action probably saved her life. She is progressing favourably.
While playing in the lower room attached to his mother’s residence, at the back of the Terrace school, Arthur Nancarrow, about eight years of age, sat down sharply againtt the window pane, which gave way, and he was precipitated a distance of some 30 feet on to the concrete path. The forepart of his head is greatly injured, the skull being badly fractured. His condition is serious, but hopes are entertained of his recovery.
Napier, This Day.
T.M.Tuffnell, accounant at the Timber Company’s Office, has disappeared, and nothing has been heard of him since Monday.
