The two very handsome shops in Mawhera Quay being built by Messrs De Berry
and Sweetman, builders, to the order of Mr Taylor, are now very nearly finished.
The building is divided into shops raised on concrete foundations and floored
with matai. The building is 70ft. deep by 33ft. wide and has walls of 14ft. The
large shop room is the full depth of the building and is from 20 to 28ft. wide.
The small shop is occupied by Mr Rose, photographer, and is in every way adapted
for that class of business, as a large skylight gives ample light. This fine new
building is a great improvement to the town and the spirited proprietor deserves
credit for his enterprise.

By an advertisement in another column Mr J Rose, well known in and around Greymouth, announces that he has started business on his own account as photographer, and solicits a fair share of patronage. His line of 12 cabinets and one enlarged photo for 17s 6d is a great inducement, and no doubt the people of Greymouth and surrounding district will avail themselves of the opportunity of getting cheap pictures. Mr Rose is a general favorite and will doubtless do well in his business, and the quality of his work is of a high order.

Attention is directed to the business announcement of Mr J Rose, photographer, who has removed to the establishment next to Kettle Bros, where he is prepared to undertake all kinds of photography. His line of a dozen cabinets and enlargement for 17s 6d will no doubt be taken full advantage of.

In accordance with instructions issued by Mr T. B. Donne of the Tourist
Department, Guides Clark and Graham have opened up a new climbing route between
the head of the Tasman glacier and Lake Tekapo. Guide Clark has forwarded the
following telegram, giving his experience: — "According to instructions, Graham
and I made new Alpine passes from head of Tasman glacier to Tekapo. I got Mr
Rose to accompany us with his camera, and he managed to secure some excellent
photographic results. We crossed the Tasman saddle (8000 ft. high) thence
traversed to the head basin of the Murchison. The pass is 7250 ft in height. We
went down the steep and broken ice-face of Classen glacier to Godley valley,
returning by the Ohau gorges and the Miller glacier to the Hermitage.
