MR. BEN DAVIES AT MERTHYR.
MR. BEN DAVIES AT MERTHYR. Thanks to the energy and enterprise of Mr. John Morgan, the Merthyr public were given an oppor- tunity last Thursday night of listening to the marvel- lous musical talent- of the world-renowned tenor, Mr. Ben Davies. Some weeks ago Mr. Davies paid a visit to the Continent, and there scored » series of brilliant triumpht, captivating the hearts ofprofea- sional criticn as well as of the multitudes. His suc- cess has been quite phenomenal, and ho now occupies a distinguished position in the very first rank of singers. A numerous audience attended the Drill Hall on Thursday evening, though the higher-priced seats were not as full as could be desired. The plat- form had been tastefully decorated with many-hued draperies and flowers. Mr. Davies, when he first appeared on the platform, was received with a terrific outburst of prolonged applause, which testified to his popularity amongst his fellow-countrymen. His first item was Handel's "Waft her, angels," the well-known and ever-popular recitative and air from Jephtha." This is one of Mr. Davies' favourite pieces, and his rendering of it was artistic and finished. In reply to a loud encore he sang another favourite, "0 na byddai'n haf o hyd," which was immensely apprecia- ted by the audience. In the second part of the con- cert Mr. Davies' first item was Home of my heart" (Leoni), which was loudly encored. Coming again to the platform Mr. Davies gave that beautiful and pathetic lullaby, Y Fam a'i Baban." So impressive was the rendering of this that at times you could hear a pin drop. His final song was the Bay of Biscay," and in reply to a thunderous encore he gave another nautical ballad, Tom Bowling." Every- body was delighted with the great tenor's vocal efforts, and his popularity in this district was con- siderably enhanced by Thursday's concert Mr. Handford Jone- the well-known Merthyr favourite, sung The vagabond," Simon the cellarer," and "The diver." Mr. Jones, though suffering from a severe cold, acquitted himself with freat credit, and the last-named song was encored, liss Julia Jones]!gave excellent renderings of the fol- lowing gongs The coming of the King," "Sunshine and rain," and Angus Macdonald." Miss Edith Davies gave several harp solos in a manner that won the appreciation of the audience. This young lady is a very promising harpist. Miss Mary Morgan was unable to attend on account of illness, but her place was taken by Miss Rosina Beynon, a young Merthyr lady of whom, it may safely l>e predicted, a great deal will be heard in the future. She sang twice, and was loudly encored each time. There is a sweetness and flexibility in her voice which fairly captivates the listeners. Her songs were The river of years" and In old Madrid," the encore songs being Dear heart" and Gleaning." The accompanist was Mr. Harry Evans, A.R.G.O., of Dowlais. who also gave two pianoforte solos. Of Mr. Evans' skill as an in- strumentalist it would be superfluous to speak, as he is sufficiently welll,nown to all our readers. His per- formances on this occasion were fully up to his usual standard of first-rate excellence. As a whole the con- cert was most enjoyable throughout. Of course, the "star" of the evening was Mr. Ben Davies, but it is only right to say that the other artistes did their work in a splendid maimer. The public owe Mr. John Morgan a. debt of gratitude for providing such an excellent musical treat.

MERTHYR GUARDIANS.
MERTHYR GUARDIANS. Saturday, Mr. D. P. Davies in the chair. Oit-Rblief.—The Clerk reported that the follow- ing sums had been paid in out-relief during the past week Aberdare, £ 57 17s. 10d. Gelligaer, £ 31 2s. 8d. Merthyr Lower, £ 68 9s. Merthyr Upper, £ 71 6s. Id. non-settled, £ 8 lis. making a total of £ 237 6s. 7d., and leaving a balance in hand of £ 7114s. Id. A cheque for £ 235 was ordered to be drawn. THE Tbeascrer's Book.—Mr. T. Thomas made a complaint regarding the treasurer's account book, which had not been properly signed. He believed it should be signed every half-year. Gelligaer Relief.—Mr. H. P. D. Phillips, J.P., called attention to the fact that the Gelligaer book had been taken to that meeting without due notice, having been given to the Guardians of the parish. He believed that he and other Guardians should have been told if the book was to be taken and examined in another room.—Mr. D. Davies thought Mr. Phillips should have his eyes open, then he would have seen as he (Mr. Davies) had seen the hook taken that morning. It was not right that this matter should crop tip for consideration every Saturday.— Mr. Phillips I should like to ask the relieving officer why this has been done. I have not seen it taken to the other room for months—Mr. T. Thomas pointed out that the rule of the Guardians was that it should be taken as soon as possible after 10.30 a.m.—Canon Wade believed it should be made publicly known.— Mr. Phillips I beg to submit that that book has not been legally passed (laughter). Will any steps be taken to prevent this occurring again ?—Mr. John Rogers There is nothing unusual in it.—Mr. D. Davies I am astonished that Mr. Phillips should raise this again. He ought to attend to his business (cries of Order).—Mr. Phillips rose to speak, but was met with cries of Chair and Order." He 1( said "Mr. Davies has been allowed to speak" (sit down). The matter then dropped, and Mr. Phillips resumed his seat. THE Training School.—The report of the Train- ing School Committee was read and adopted, and the various relieving cffficers submitted reports of the conduct and condition of those children who had left the school during the past two years.—The Chairman said that Mr. W. A. Davies, Aberdare, was desirous of giving the children a magic lantern entertainment, ana asked permission of the Board to allow him to do so.—This was granted. THE POLICE and the TRAMPs.-The Rev. Father O'Reilly called attention to the fact that Inspector Davies, of Aberdare, had not been appointed a deputy- relieving officer in the same manner as Superintendent Thorney, of Merthyr, had been appointed, and conse- quently that officer did not feel called upon when "casuals" applied to him to give them notes admit- ting them to the cheap lodging-houses. There was a case of a sudden death last week in Aberdare which caused him to bring the matter forward. A tramp who had no money had been refused admission to a certain lodging-house. He went to another lodging- house where he was known, and when lie arrived he was terribly exhausted, and had thn landlady not admitted him, ho would doubtless have died in the street. He (the speaker) asked Inspector Davies about him, and that officer told him he had no authority to give notes to people to go to the lodging- houses, and many people were under the impression that he was not willing to give them. He believed that Aberdare should havo a deputy-relieving officer in the person of the head of the police, the same as Merthyr had (hear, hear). He had reoeived the sanction of the Board to give notes for lodgings to those candidates who applied for them.—The Clerk explained that the Board had appointed Superintendent Thorney a deputy rel:ev!nj-othcev to relieve tramps in Merthyr and Aberdare parishes, in fact, for the whole of the Union. This point was raised at the time of his appointment, and it was suggested that the inspector at Aberdare should be appointed under the superin- tendent. He was somewhat surprised to hear that Inspector Davies said he had no authority to relieve tramps, and would suggest that a letter be sent to Superintendent Thorney, as the Board's servant, asking him for an explanation.—Mr. D. Davies had very great pleasure in moving that the recommenda- tion of the Clerk be carried out, and that the special attention of Superintendent Thorney be drawn to this case. He had never heard of the death of this poor man, and in that case they should have such an explanation as—(Order).—Rev. Aaron Davies seconded, and the motion was carried.—Mr. T. Thomas: I had a similar complaint from Inspector Jennings when he was there.—The Chairman Let us have the explanation before we criticise. TilE Aberdare Gas.—A letter was read from the Aberdare Gas Company stating, in reply to a request from the Board, that in future the price of gas would be reduced 2d. per thousand feet.—Mr. D. Davies thought the Aberdare Gas Company should be asked to reduce their price to the level of the Merthyr Company.—The Chairman: That is a. matter we cannot discuss. THE Master's Report.—Mr. Tearccy reported that during the past week 43 paupers had been admitted, 40 discharged, one born, ana one had died. The total number in the house was 402, as compared with 316 during the corresponding week of last year.
ALLEGED THEFT AT DOWLAIS.
ALLEGED THEFT AT DOWLAIS. At the Merthyr Police-court on Monday, John Ryan and John Vaughan were charged with stealing a pair of boots, the property of Daniel O'Neill, Dowlais.—The prosecutor did not appear.—Joseph Arkell, pawnbroker, residing at Dowlais, Raid that on the 6th of March, he received a pair of boots (pro- duced) in pledge from Ryan. Witness did not see Vaughan.—P.C. Edward Clynch stated that the piosecutor gave information at the Police-station on the 6th of March, and he arrested the two men on the following day.—On being charged with stealing the boots, Vaughan said, "I took off the boots, and Kyan pledged them," and Ryan admitted having pledged them.—The case was adjourned until Thursday.
THE "PLEASURES OF LIFE."
THE "PLEASURES OF LIFE." LECTURE AT ABERDARE. At the Constitutional Hall, Aberdare, on Wed- nesday evening, the Rev. R. R. Roberts, B.A.. delivered a lecture upon the "Pleasures of Life." Colonel T. Phillips presided, and there was a good attendance. The lecturer dealt with the subject in an interesting manner, and kept his hearers in a constant laughter and merriment by some stirring and humor- ous tales of real life. In the course of his lecture, Mr. Roberts referred to the miser's pleasure of hoard- ing up money and dwelling in the midst of its jingle, regardless of the vast pleasures which that wealth could purchase. Some people find pleasure in being melancholy. They never have a smile upon their countenances. Others have joy in constantly worry- ing those under their control. Home is the supreme pleasure to married men and women. It is a place of repose, peace, and rest, fro'n a world's turmoil. There are no hours (said Mr. Roberts) like'those you spend around the hearth. There is poetry there. Think of the many evenings you have spent in your arm chair with the children around you You have everything when you have a baby an orchestra, a circus, a menagerie, a burglar, and a Radical. There were never any Tory babies. When you get a babe you have a New Woman. A new comet in the sky is nothing to that child. Thus married couples find pleasure in the home. Then the pleasures of talk are freat. You will get tired of drama, of play, and ance but you will never get tired of really good talk. The last thing which we would give up is that of meeting friends and exchanging confidences. An intoxicated man forgets all his sins, and is amiable and talkative with all men. Many a man goes through life simply projecting, dreaming, but never realising. Grow long hair, grow anything, but don't grow a poet. A man sits and passes his hand through his long hair and his eyes roll. He gazes at the sky, but he finds the sky as vacuous as his mind. He writes his first line then he wants a word to rhyme he fixes upon "fry," then goes off into sausages. There is many a young man who dreams that he has only to go out and fall in love all the girls smile upon him. It is their prerogative. Young men, go on dreaming; don't ask a young woman to become your wife. Marriage ? There is only one thing in life greater than that, and that is not getting married. Dreaming about it. Thinking about it! See what a wide dreamland is open to you These are the men who really enjoy life the most. I do not say it is the duty of man to act thus. A man should enjoy his meal, not gobble it down. A man says to you, You enjoy your sleep"; but you did not. How can a man enjoy a sleep when he is sleeping'! You enjoy the thought of having slept. A woman does not enjoy her beauty, excepting in so far as she thinks how others enjoy the sight thereof. Man does not enjoy the things he buys, but the remarks and com- pliments given to him by his friends. In supporting a. vote of thanks to the lecturer, one speaker said that in Mr. Roberts we had a Bishop of Berkeley risen from the dead.—A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded a pleasant evening's enter- tainment,
RED TAPE VERSUS BRAVERY.
RED TAPE VERSUS BRAVERY. [By A Correspondent.] No one but those engaged in Her Majesty's Post Office knows the tyranny that is put upon the employes of that branch of the Civil Service. Occasionally a few of the secrets come to the public ears, but the restrictions of the right to public speak- ing are so placed that much important matter is suppressed. During the pressure at Christmas season passengers upon the Pontypridd platform were exceedingly many, and the usually busy station terribly crowded at certain hours. As the Cardiff to Merthyr train was coming in, that commotion always apparéntJtt such a mament among passengers, caused a young lad, from the Rhondda, to over-balance him- self from the extreme edge of the platform on to the metals on which the train was approaching. A terrific sci earn was raised from the t pictators, and in another half a moment a mangled corpse would have been found but Postman Cotton, of the Pontypridd staff, was on duty with the mails for this train, and being very cool and collected left the bags and jumped, at the risk of his own life, to save the lad who was in such great danger. The train drew near, and the dumb founded people turned their heads away from what appeared to be a sickening spectacle. But Postman Cotton dragged the lad to the narrow space between the up and down lines just as the steam horse rushed past, thus saving a human being at the great risk of his own life. Emerging upon the platform the post- man was accorded many congratulations for his daring deed. In the excitement of the event, however, he did not know where tho lad was, and duty called him away. The train steamed out of the station and the incident passed. Next day a report appeared in the daily press of the gallant act of the poet-man. Copies of some of the papers were forwarded by many no I--dOubt well-meaning persons to the headquarters at St. Martin's-le-Grand, London. The secretary ot the post office caused an inquiry to be made into the cir- cumstances, and several visits from the surveyor's office at Cheltenham resulted in the postman being requested to furnish evidence from the public as to correctness of the report which had appeared in the press. The newspaper proprietors were unable to assist him, and he, being amongst so many strangers, knew of no one by name who would come before those inspectors to assist him. In the absense of this, the poor postman was accused of being the writer of the paragraph referred to, and that all the circumstances were a farce. Ultimately the pages of officialdom record that if the postman was found neglecting his mails again, instant dismissal would be the result. It was pointed out that the Government paid him for the mail service, and not for saving life. What does the public think of an act of this kind?* Can they condemn a post office employe for blankly refusing to save a human being after the treatment meted out to Postman Cotton? This action of red- tapism is much to be regretted, and will be condemned by every right-minded person.
A.S.R.S.
A.S.R.S. MEETING AT DOWLAIS. An open meeting under the auspices of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants was held at the Antelope Hotel, Dowlais, on Saturday, for platelayers, when an address was delivered by Mr. R. Bell, .organising secretary, chiefly concerning plate- layers and their work. There was a splendid atten- dance. The chair was taken by Mr. Fred Williams, a well-known ex-rad way man, who, in a capital speech, dwelt chiefly upon the good that can be accomphshed by combination, and saying that from his practical experience as a railway man, he thought they could not do better than to combine under the banner of the above-mentioned society.—Mr. Charles Price moved the following resolution That this meeting is con- vinced that the improvement of our condition as platelayers can only be accomplished by combination, and calls upon all, not already members, to at once join the A.S.R.S., being the best and most powerful society to improve our conditions."—This having been seconded by Mr. D. James, the Chairman called upon Mr. Bell to support it, who gave one of his usual practical addresses upon what combination could do for platelayers. The resolution was then put to the meeting, when it was carried unanimously. A resolu- tion was also passed asking the executive committee to sanction a movement for the betterment of the con- ditions of service for platelayers in South Wales. Fourteen platelayers enrolled themselves as members before leaving the room, and after the usual votes of thanks had been passed, one of the best meetings ever held at Dowlais was brought to a close. The Executive Committee of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants commenced their quarterly sitting on Tuesday at the head offices of the society in London. The committee is comrosed of 13 members and the president and general sccietary, the members being elected annually. Amongst other matters they will be again asked to allow a conference of G.W.R. signalmen, to consider the rosition of their movements, and the varicus district resolutions passed last year. The executive ruled at their last meeting that the gronnd was covered by the Signal- men's National Movement, ,r
! MOUNTAIN ASH COUNCIL.
MOUNTAIN ASH COUNCIL. Monday Mr. W. Little in the chair. There were present: Messrs. M. Morgan, T. Jones, W. James, T. Edmunds, J. T. Williams, E. Morgan, R. Price, Adam Clarke, James Davies, J. Powell, J. Long, and J. Williams.—The seal of the Board was affixed to the contract for a new cemetery.—The Clerk read a letter from Mr. J. F. Mills, enclosing cheque tor a year's rent of the slaughter-house, and as the pre- mises were in need of repair he offered the Board that if they granted him a lease for seven years at a reduced rent he would undertake to put the place in good condition.—The Surveyor said that Mr. Mills practically intended re-construc.ting the premises.—It was ultimately resolved that the lease be granted at J325 per year, being a reduction of £5 upon the yearly tenancy, under which condition the Council were responsible for all repairs.—The request of Mr. Chas. Jenkins, contractor, to lay a tram-road over the Pen- rhiwceiber-road was granted, subject to the matter being done to the satisfaction of the surveyor.—The improvements at Cross-street, passed at the last meet- ing of the Board, were intended for two Cross-streets, viz., one from the Station to Church-street, and the other from Rheola to Quarry-road.—Mr. Thomas Jones was of opinion that it would be advisable to have tlw whole of the streets put in proper repair simultaneously, and jo conpletethe district.—Messrs. Nixon and Co. were granted a renewal of two licences for storing explosives. A carriage licence for Mr. Evan Roberts, and a driver's licence for Mr. E. Edwards, were granted.—The Medical Officer reported that there had been two cases of scarlet fever m the district, but he did not have them removed to the hospital. The chi-trict was now practically free from all infectious diseases.—The name of Mr. J. Davies was added to all the committees. —The Surveyor reported that the rainfail registered at Daxanlas Weiring during the month of February was 0'8 inch as against 7'53 inches for the corresponding period of last year. The supply of water had been maintained under considerable difficulty during the frost, and now that a thaw had set in there were a number of leakages brought to light. It is well to know that the supply of water stored has borne the extra draw, and there would be an abundant supply when the conduits of distribution are restored to their normal condition.—The committee met on the land required for recreation, and instructed the surveyor to employ a number of persons that were unable to follow their usual occupation in consequence of the frost. A number of such persons were employed for several days. They have now discontinued working for tho Council, being able to follow their own employment. The amount expended for this work was J614 8s. 7d.— The contractors for coal to the Gas Works are Slaying in heavy deliveries, and there will be a sufficient stock on hand in case of a strike.—Plans for the following were deposited :—Three cottages in Woodland-street for T. Davies, two cottages at Aberdare Junction for George Stephens, a house and shop for W. Lewis in Rhapa-street.
