WILSON, ironmonger, has made an alteration in his business, having taken into partnership Mr Robert NORTHE, an old resident of Napier. Mr WILSON's twelve years', and Mr NORTHE's thirty-three years' residence among us, have, no doubt, secured them many friends who will join us in wishing the new firm every success. At the R.M. Court yesterday, before Mr TURNBULL, R.M., Gerald DOWLING and John LeGOYT were charged with drunkenness and with threatening behaviour. The latter consisted in each professing a desire to annihilate the other, and in going through various sparring contortions with a view to that end. For being drunk they were each fined 10s and costs, and for their pugilistic tendencies £1 and costs. An accident happened yesterday to a steam crane used by Messrs CRANBY and PREBBLE for lifting silt from the dredge punts. Some portion of the coupling gave way, causing the bucket to part company with the neck of the crane.......Mr KENDALL, the engineer in charge, had a narrow escape both from scalding and from being injured by the giving way of the platform. Woodville - At the R.M. Court yesterday, a Mrs TROON was charged by the police with obstructing them in the execution of their duty on Saturday last....The J.P.'s Messrs SYMS and HALL, showed that they sympathised with the constable and fined the woman 5s.
