CORRESPONDENCE. POLITICAL MEETINGS IN SOUTH GLA- MORGAN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR.—I observe the following statement in a report of a speech by Sir Morgan Morgan given at Pontyclown :—So late as 1885, in many dis- tricts it was impossible to hold meetings on the Conservative side, because the speakers were hooted down." Sir Morgan Morgan has been strangely misinformed. My opponent in 188, Mr. (now Sir John) Llewellyn, will, I am sure, bear me out when I say that he was always treated with courtesy and listened to attentively at all his meetings—even in the Rhondda, where nine-tenths of the electors who heard him after- wards voted against him. The only meeting during that election at which there was anything like unseemly interruption was one held at Cowbridge bv myself.—I am. &c.. ARTHUR J. WILLIAMS. Coed-y-Mwstwr, Bridgend, Nov. 16. — SCHOOL BOARD JOBBERY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR.—l,Not an Aspirant,in your last week's issue, has written what I consider a rather harsh letter. I also disclaim any partiality, and I was as disinterested in any particular candidate as Not an Aspirant" says he was. I always think that it is a very easy matter to cavil and carp at the doings of our public bodies but whether our criticism is right and just is quite another matter. How are we. poor outsiders, to judge of the qualifications of all the candidates without carefully going through all the testimonials, which. I understand. some of the members of the School Board did. though it meant almost an all-night sitting: I have no doubt that the appoint- ment was given to an old servant who had served them as well and faithful, and who had always earned the highest grant. Surely we cannot blame the Board for regarding long and faithful services, and I hold that where the old and tried official is thoroughly efficient and capable he should be given the benefit of the doubt." When it comes to the matter of fresh appointments another consideration arises, and on this point I agree with Not an Aspirant." If capable Welsh- speaking Welshmen can be found they ought to be preferred, especially as we may some day hope to see Welsh taught in our Barry Schools. Judging by the action of the present Board, we can come to no other conclusion than that they are also of this opinion. Mr. Higman was ap- pointed before the present Board came into exist- ence, and also before this 8ft! r of the first magnitude had illuminated us on this Welsh question and had made us more nationalist. But in the case of his successor at the Barry Dock Schools, viz., Mr. Rees, they have recognised chat Welsh is an essential qualification. Not an Aspirant" brings forward a long list of honours taken by one candidate, a London graduate. I may point out that experts do not con- sider that high scholarly attainments alone necessarily make successful teachers. I know nothing about this particular candidate. He may be an excellent teacher, but I prefer to trust to the judgment of our present School Board members, especially as one of their number is an old school- master. My preference is, in some degree, also justified by the quotation from another paper in your last issue giving the Llanarth School Board's opinion of Mr. Rees. The matter was discussed privately, and it was ultimately agreed to offer Mr. Rees a substantial increase, and adjourn the question for a few days in order to give him time to consider it. That the present Board is fully alive to the need of having Welsh-speaking officials is further proved by their conduct in appointing a school attendance officer. They selected four gentlemen, and then gave the preference to the two who spoke Wel-h, as they were of opinion it was essential. As a ratepayer I watch with keen interest the doings of our School Board, and I am confident that the members are all animated by the desire to make our elementary schools a, credit to our rising town and efficient in every respect.—Yours, Sec., C.T. 16th November, 1891. THE DROWNING FATALITY AT BARRY DOCK. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR,—I have been asked to write to you regard- ing the sad fatality of the last storm. I am the more glad to do this on account of some uncalled- for remarks which have appeared in Cardiff papers, and to which I have already sent answers, I may say. then, that when poor Macdonald had been about twenty minutes in the water I reached the breakwater and saw the noble and heroic at- tempt at rescue. I say deliberately—and the event is now distinct enough for me to write calmly — that these two daring fellows who launched the little cockleshell of a punt from the pilot boat's deck in the height of a gale, which for fury I have never seen equalled in high lati- tudes, did such a deed as is worthy of record, and I trust the public will show this by liberally pro- viding for the families left behind them. In such deeds as this we all feel that class distinctions vanish, and that one touch of nature makes the whole world akin." Let us show this by making fit provision for these poor fellows' wives and children. Our great Example said, Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friend." Can any nobler record be ascribed to their memory.—Yours. &c., W. B. WHALL. P.S.—Let me also state that no blame can be attached to the lookers-on ashore: they were helpless, and could do nothing, no boat being available. [We wish every success to the efforts which are being made to relieve the families of those who so nobly sacrificed their lives to save a fellow- creature. We have already written to say that our columns will be freely at the disposal of the Relief Committee.—EDITOR S. 11\] BILLIARDS AT THE PONTYPRIDD LIBERAL CLUB. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH VTALHS STAR. SIR, — In the last edition of your paper, you report that another billiard handicap has been promoted by the Games Committee of the above club. That part of the report is correct: but the other part which states that Mr. Olliver has been excluded from entering is grossly incorrect. Mr. Olliver has certainly not been excluded from taking part in this handicap. Why should he be He is a member of the above club. and as such was as free as any other member of the Pontypridd Liberal Club to enter. Thanking you in anticipa- tion of correction of the above.—I am, &c., THE PRESIDENT OF GAMES COMMITTEE. Liberal Club, Pontypridd. — COMPLAINTS AND WANTS OF GARW VALLEY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SlR.—lb the letter that appeared in your last week s issue under the assumed name" Radical Pontyphyl," I have been accusod several times of being the writer of the said letter. Allow me, Mr. Editor, to inform mvacCUSers that I never wrote a line to any paper without signing my proper name and address to all my letters, as I don't be- lieve in writing to any press without the proper signature being attached to all my letters. Surely if the subject is worth writing upon it would be equally as worth while for the writer to sign his proper name to his letters, especially when dealing with personal characters. I would advise Radi- cal" to be very careful in his future correspond- ence from the Garw Valley, to try and get at something that will not tend to interfere with the peace of the place. I will kindly ask you. Mr. Editor, to exonerate me in this matter.—Yours. &c.. JOHN THOMAS. Pontyihyl. Miners' Agent. November 16. 1891. [Mr. John Thomas has certainly never written to us anonymously.—EDITOR S. H-.S. ]

THE AMENITIES OIjl A PUBLICAN'S LIFE. A VIOLENT TIPPLER MEETS WITH HIS DESERTS. A haulier named John Morgan, livingat the No. 2 Hut. Nanthir. Garw Yallev, was charged at the Bridgend Police-court, on Saturday last, with assaulting Thomas David Bevan. landlord of the Blaengarw Hotel. Blaengarw. Mr. W. R. Randall appeared for the prosecution.—-The evidence of the complainant was to the effect that defendant came to his house and asked for a pint of beer, which he afterwards refused to pay for. The barmaid tried to get the pint from him, when he threw it at her. The police were sent for. and Police-constable Hur- ford. in taking prisoner to the police-station, was tripped up the defendant running away. Witness caught him. and in the struggle defendant kicked witness.—Police-constable Hurford said the land lord was afraid of his life when he arrived at the house. Defendant also assaulted witness, ahd was like a" madman." He remarked upon the diffi- culty landlords had in carrying on their business. —The defence was that defendant was drunk.—He was sent to prison for one calendar month with hard labour.

THE "STAR" AND ITS CRITICS. Dr. John Thomas. writing in the 1'sf tfr DtjUil. bearing the date of November 13, say. -A. paper full of vigour is the South ir«/v Star, speaking plainly, and giving to everything the name which it thinks is proper to it. Its vivacity, perhaps, is its most marked feature, and this touches all. whether in sermon, in lecture, or article it be. It continues to unmask what it calls" Legal Jobbery." So it calls the appointment of monoglot Englishmen, or. at all events, Englishmen totally ignorant of Welsh, to be judges of the County-court. With the appointment of Mr. Beresford, who is wholly ignorant of the people's speech, to be County-court judge of Mid-Wales it commenced. j I That which it has published is nothing but the expression of the feeling of the body of the nation. The Star publishes every week letters to persons considered to be Welsh leaders, and a good deal of liberty is taken to tell them things that there is no harm in their hearing. An open letter to Lewis Morris is published in the last week's issue, and it tells him some wholesome things. His genius as a poet is recognised, though the laurel is not given him but it tells him clearly that his spirit and his temper make it hard for him to be a successful candidate for Parliament. After knock- ing at several gates, and being mentioned in almost every vacant constituency in our country for twenty years, out in the cold he is yet. It brings his impulsive letter to the electors of the Carmar- then Boroughs before him, and reminds him of a similar letter with respect t) Chamberlain years ago, and in one and the other circumstance he hastened to make an apology, and recanted when his blood had cooled. As he had sinned tVere was nothing better than to repent and own his fault but a man of his age, position, and talent ought not to sin in that way. Major Jones, who is a rival candidate for the Carmarthen Boroughs, and Mr. Morris. are held up face to face, and they are sea-led very fairly, though it is not hard to see which is the favourite. There is no doubt but that this style of writing has its advantages, but it is not safe except in the hand of a man of judg- ment. who knows the right limits, and in this Theo- dore Dodd shows much ability."

SUICIDE ABOARD SHIP AT BARRY DOCK. A STEWARD TIRED OF LIFE. John Queeiisbury, a native of Belfast, and steward aboard the steamship Dumblair. of Liver- pool, lying at Barry Dock, committed suicide on that vessel on Monday morning. He was seen by the first mate alright at half-past six on Sunday evening, but unseemly and loud snoring early on Monday morning attracted the attention of the men. It was seen that something serious was the matter with the steward, and medical aid was sent for. Dr. W. Lloyd Edwards arriving at about eight o'clock. It was found that the man had swallowed a large dose of laudanum, and despite unremitting efforts he succumbed to the effects shortly after eleven o'clock. A letter was found in the handwriting of the deceased, stating that he was tired of life. and was determined to do away with himself.—The inquest was held at the Barry Dock Police-station on Wednesday after- noon, before Mr. E. B. Recce. Cardiff, district coroner.—Mr. Hutchins was foreman of the jury. —Captain Beall. master of the steamship Dum- blair, said on Sunday- he saw the deceased (who had been aboard for a fortnight) engaged in his duties, and he appeared to be a little the worse for drink, and said he did not feel all right. Witness told him to go and lie do wn, which he did. The chief officer saw him again at half-past six. and he seemed to be all light then. On the following morning the cook came to witness, and said lie had been unable to rouse the deceased. Witness went and gave him a good shaking, as he thought he was still under the influence of drink. Witness searched the bunk to see if there was any spirits hid, and on finding the bottle of laudanum (pro- duced ) sent for the doctor. The laudanum be- longed to the ship's medical chest, and about a wineglass full had been taken from it. Witness also found a letter in the handwriting of the deceased which he now handed to the coroner.—The Coroner read the letter which was addressed to deceased's wife. It was to the effect that he was very miserable, and was tired of living any longer. It concluded, I have a postal order in my coat. All my clothes are packed up. and my watch and chain are in my pocket. Good-bye." — Witness, continuing, said that deceased had been a very temperate man with the exception referred to. His wages amounted to about £ 1 3s. 4d. per week, and a sovereign of that amount he sent weekly to his wife.—Dr. W. Lloyd Edwards said he was called to see the deceased at eight o'clock in the morning and found him in his bunk insensible, suffering with all the symptoms of opium poisoning. Witness used all the usual means of restoring life, but without success. Deceased died about noon.—A verdict to the effect that deceased committed suicide whilst temporarily insane was returned.

BURGLARY IN THE RHONDDA V ACI-I. Thomas Powell. a oollier. was brought up before the Pontypridd magistrates on Wednesday, charged with attempting to break into the Butchers' Arms, Wattstown, on the 10th of September. 1889. The defendant went into the Batchers' Arms on Sunday, and was at once recognised by the land- lady as one of the men who attempted to break intQt the house two years before. The would-be burglars were frightened from the house by the landlady, who heard a noise in the pine end of the house. Mr. W. Charles Matthews defended, and the prisoner was committed to the next assizes, bail to the amount of £ 80 being accepted.

ORIGINAL POETRY. TWILIGHT THOUGHTS. Now busy day is over, I play some quiet strain, For soothing is such music LTnto the weary brain. Just as my feelings lead me. Just as my fingers stray. And as the note sounds travel, Bearing my thoughts away. On wings of fancy soaring, Back to the days gone by, To days of early childhood, Then again to the present fly. Backward and forward flitting, As sunshine and showers do. Ling'ring o'er bygone sorrows. And o'er some bright hours too. I change the quiet melody, Making it what I will. Raging like angry billows, Then calm, subdued, and still. Thoughts with the soft notes blending, End almost like a prayer, For as they rise to Heaven. I find true solace there. Comfort, for every sorrow, Patience, each trial to bear Hope, when the world seems weary, A balm for every care. Cadoxton. A. 51. S.
