AUSTRALIAN Cutzlt4s.—We were shown
last week a number of interesting ii xl
peculiar Australian curios in the pos-
session of Abner Co sins. Mr. Cousins
when. it young mat was a wanderer,
visiting every condi:a It in the world be-
fore 30 years of age. His season in
Australia was perha-s the most interest-
iug. Besides many pictures relating tb
his Australian tree 31s he has several
articles et oddity mei beauty. Most
eurious of all is a b'ahmau's war club
made of heavy, hard vood, In length it
is about two feet an half, being about
two inches in diame r at the handle,
slightly larger at t e ether end and
covered with rows cones. These
cones are carved do n, apex pointing
outward and sot vel closely together,
making a very a active instrument

WHAT SHALL E Do2—A. committee
was formed she ly before Christmas
last year to make n endeavor to estab-
lish in Wiughat , a town band. The
committee fell t1;ough. The baud wont
flat and has stayea flat ever since. , We
pride ourselves Unit our town contains
the material for t musical organization
as good as that r ,esessed by sister towns.
Where lies the difficulty? . A certain
bandsman says he town will offerno
support until the band. is thoroughly in
shape. It takes i ouey to place a band ill
that condition, 0 the players have taken
theis shoulders f m the wheel. Could
something not be one at once toward get- '
ting our band to Cher and holding them
there?. During a past few days two
excellent player.. have come to live in
town. That wo d be two more added
to the list. We ve already from 12 to
15. Surely anot r 12 to 15 capable
young men could be found who would
be wiling to lear Then wo would have
a band of thirty pieces and a concert
every week. W len once planted and
reared to a silt _ciently healthy and
strong condition, the town would offer
support with beocjning libCrallty.
