AT THE IIAPOD WORKS. He was hero every night last week, with the exception of Saturday night," said an officL.1 to our reporter this morning at the Hafod works, "and 1 firmly believe that his iordship rather overworked himself" I Was he very active last week f" Just iike a young man; you wouldn't believe such activity possible without seeing it. He waA as J. toki you, every night last week. When he came here he didn't come to look and hang about, but to work. He was always busy. He did not come here He has always made it a practice to drive straight to Singleton when he eamo by train from London or anywhere else." "The feeliag in the works is of coarse an ine:i,i-esiiible one ?" When the men were informed of it this (Thursday) morning they were dunib-fourtaed and could scarcely believe the sad news. Every man throughout the works feels it j very keenly, for, as an old servant, believe me, it is once in a lifetime that a man finds himself in the service ef a gentleaaau like Lord Swansea." S1E JOHN JONES JENKINS PROFOUNDLY AFFECTED. u Had I heard nothing previously of the sad mtalligcnce that is causing such I widespread regret and sympathy in I South Wales," writes a Post reporter. I "I couid have told that something and unexpected bad happened, I by the bearing of Sir Jwan Jones Jenkins, when I was quietly usfaerod into his private room at the Mumbles Railway Offices this I morning, a few minutes after the arrival of I the first up-train from the Grange. Sir John was seated at his apparently wrapt in thought. He rose quietly and greeted me with that inborn courteey that never at any moment fails to make-xUelf shown. His face waa paie and serious. and never during ihe course of our conversa- ¡ tion did it lapse into that sunny smile which is under oidinarv circumstances such a characteristic of the Knight of the Grange. it was evidently a considerable effort to Sir Johu to touch upon a subject so painful as that ef the !{\38 of him with whom he had had so much in common, and whoso friendship he had enjoyed for upwards of forty years. Sir John seemed to have guessed the errand upon which I had come, and ho was soon tailing me, in a voice full of emotion, what, his estimate was of the loss that the people of Swansea and South Wales haa sustained. Lord Swansea's sudden death," be said, I li has been a very sad blow to all of us, and I especially to those who have seen as much of him as 1 have for a great many years. I It will be undoubtedly a very great loss to the town and neighbour- hood, because Lord Swansea was undoubtedly a man far above the average ability and was always ready with his advice in every public matter concerning the town, and was, as a rule, always ready and vkilling to give his counsel to those who consulted him in their private capacity. Ail his public ac, Is are so well known in Swansea, that in the future, as at, the present, his deeds will play a-nry promi- nent part in the history of tho town of Swan- sea. I, for one, can never forget the move- ments he ieok in the direction of educating tho children of the working clasps." How far back was that, Sir John V I interposed. Oh. it would be very nearly (5 years ago. Lord Swansea was a young ms>n then. It was shortly alter his return from Germany that he first displayed such interest in educa- tional affairs. He seemed to realise the fact that as regards matters of education Germany was far ahead of us, and the result was th. t he induced his father to erect the schools at the Hafod. "And then the business relations I had had with Lord Swansea brought mo into such close contact with him," continued Sir John after a pause, the help that he tendered respecting the construction of the MutnhIcsantmhonddtBa.T Railway was per- fectly invaluable. "Why only last Tuesday he was to have attended a meeting of theRhondda and Swansea Bay Co. at Queen Anne's Gato in London. He sent me a telegram saying how sorry ho was not to be able to come to the meeting because he waa detained in the city iDiportant business. "Was that he last communication you ever had from him," I asked e8," replied Sir John with evident emotion, "I hare neither seen nor heard from him since." And when did you first hear of his death." Not a word of it reached my ears until I got o;i to the Mumbles enr this morning. I need hardly say that I was very much up by the ii,-vrs-indecd, everybody in the train was, 1 never remember an occasion on which the morning newt-papers were eo com- picteiy ignored as thoy were this morning on the journey up from the Mumbles Nobody seemed to care to read them. Everybody seemed abie to talk or think of nothing save the loss that Swansea has sustained. It was painful to Sir John to speak further upon a topic that had made such a deep im- pression upon him, and with a hurried word of thanks 1 quietly left the room. REFERENCES AT /HE APSIZ^ COUR-f. Justice Lawhanc^AKD IR. Bovvij; Ivowi A^rs,. Q.C., M.P, TRIBUTE TO THE MEMORY OF LORD SWANSEA. Prior to entering upon the business of tho Assize Court this (Ihnrsdayj morning at Swansea his Lordship Justice Lawrance addressed Mr. Bowen Rowlands in the following ternis m respect of the death of Lord Swansea:—J think, j Mr. Rowlands, before we be„in the fcusiuoss of to-iia\, 1 ought lo mention and refer to ji great loss that this town has sustained by the sudden and unexpected death of Lord Swansea. of whom all who knew him can speak of bis character and to the irreparable lo-s that everyone has sustained by his death. I may mention for myselr that I knew Loru Swansea for ton I years IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, and my friendship was then' fortified for him. Up to an interval of the last two or three days he has been in good health, and one can only fee! that it would be improper for us to the business of to-dav without me expressing my very Bincore regret to, lieir of his decease, and of the 14reat loss which this town has sustained, and also to express my condolence with those who arc left behind. Whether it is riglit or proper for me to say one word on this occasion. I thought it was mydutvtosay a few words with'regard to tho memory of Lord Swansea. He ba nssed A LOXG, HONOURED, AND USHKUL LITT, principally, I believe, in this town, which awes a great deal to him. When ho was raised to the House of 1 ortis he arrived ai, v.hafcl suppose some people consider the summit of ambition, in my opinion, what was more valuable than the coronet which lie were was tae esteem and the love in which he was held by all classes of the community. Mr. Bowen Bowlands, Q.C., rising r.s letuier of the bar, said My j.ord, I must raspectfuliy thank your lordship for the expressions of opinion that you have so well uttered, 1Ud to join in that expression of t sympatny. With regard to myself, I was more or less intimately connected with Lord Swansea, and desire to express my deep and sincere regret fcr rUB CKKAT LOSS which I have personally sustained by being deprived of the great services which Lord Swansea lias rendered to myself and others, I end I can only aId that it is with fee hugs of deep regret th:.1:- he has not been spared longer to con Untie that useful life that. t he has beon living for 1.0. long a time among us. I have been associated with him in the House of Co,iimons and 1 can coufcss nn opinion that he did not act alone in the mterests of the constituency to which he belonged, but to the c) u u t r va-t irgtl to which he was so devotedly attached. 1 myself br.rc had the honour of being associate i with this borough, and it was one of my earliest acts after being appointed Recorder to attend a banquet in honour of Lord Swaneea, which showed their sense of the fervices rendered to them by him. I think that anything we may say now would be superfluous. The whole neighbourhood, and in fact the whole p community will remember the services which he has rendered to them, and thot-o services will continue to remain in their minds, not only with regard to a part of his life, but also with regard to the performance of those-1 duties which belong to a citizen of tbili I r I country, and to the self-denial which he subjected himself to, and also that, he always with a siugie eye did what lie could for the best interests of the country which ho served. PUBLIC MOURNING IN SWANSEA. The tokena of public inorniDg are numerous in the iown. At Messrs. Ben Lvans and Co.'s new premisef, in the opening of which Lord Swansea played such a conspicuous part last Saturday, a Union Jack waves at half-mast on the gigantic staff which rises from the main mansard oi the building. The Conservative. Liberal, and Workingmen's Clubs also fiy half-mast flags, similar tekens being displayed at the Consular nd. mercantile oiSees, and on ail ihe vessels belonging to Swansea now in pert. Many gentlemen who were int mately connected with his lordship in business, Municipal, and social life, have docned biack ties and bands of crape. CLOSING OF THE VIVIANS' WORKS OFFICES. In consequence of the death of Lord Swansea, the commercial departments ot the foil owing works were elosad to-day at two o'clock:—The general offices, Hated, Fuel Works: Hafod Isha and Morriston Speiter Works, Phosphate Works, Silver and l ead Works, White Rock; the Mon-Mtton Pot- teries; Mvnewydd Newydd. Colliery; and Pentre Iron Foundry, Hafod. AMONG THE HAFOD FOLKS. Mr. Robert Thomas, the messenger em- ployed to eonvey letters, &-c., from Siugletou to tke Hafod Copper Works, first spread the sad news through the Hafod this morning. The excitement an. consternation which it created are indescribable. Everyone recognised that the district had been deprived of the one benelacter who had cheered the hearts of many distressed ones and whose place could scarcely be filled. Bis lordship was the head of tne Hafod .Silver, Copper, aDd Blue Stoni Works, Alkali Works, Lead Works, the Pentre BpeTfnr Wúrks, Juynydd Newydd Colliery, Pe" cl e Hafod Manure Worka. r. n d the Hafod Isha Works. It would be impossible to describe the grief which prevails in the neighbourhood. The employes of the various works of which his lordship was the owner to-day stood in groups discussing the demise ot their generous employer. They speak of hiin asonowhotook a keeniuterestintheir welfare, and considertheir iossto beanitreparableone. His lordship had been often heard to say that his connection with the Hafod Copper t.nd Silver Worlro should only be severed by his demise. Such was the effect produced in the naignbourhood of the works, that many of ths workmen dropped their tools early this monj, and expi-essed themselves unabie to proceed witb the duties of tbe day. A correspondent, who visited the works, describes the scene as a pathetic one. Some of the deceased's oldest servants, when interrogated, were unable to eontrol their feelings. At the Hafod general offices this (Thurs- day) morning universal expressions of regret and condolence with Lady Swansea were niitde, by the clerks and head officials. Mr. Eden, nephew of the deceaseot gentleman, is the presiding representative of Messrs. 'V- iy; aii at ail the works. Frequont signs ot mourning .re visible in all the houses and shops of the. Hafod district, the blinds being drawn and shutters elosed in all the principal thoroughfares. A MEETING POSTPONED. One of the objects of Lord Swansea's return from town last Wednesday night was to attend the first meeting of the go vernors appointed under the scheme for the adminis- tration of thÐ Welsh Intermediate Education Act in the Guild-hall this morning. When the committee met there was no thought of vvorK. Mr. Councillor Lindloy was formally voted to the chair, which it had been under- stood his lordship would fill, and at the outset observed that the meeting took place under extremely sorrowful circumstances. It had been postponed for some time to e.nable Lord Swansea to he present. But fate willed it otherwise. There was no need for him to recount to the members the distress- ing intelligence which had been ti),, morning spread throughout the town, ana ha wouidj therefore, content hiii self with moving that the committee should adjourn ca a mark of I re&pectjto the memory of the late peer. The members of the committee had known his lordship for many more years than ho (the speaker) bad. The short time that he had been acquainted with his lordship had been quite j long enough te afford him every reason for regai ding Lord 8-vansea with the greatest esteem: and ho felt that they could estimate the vast benefit which the Horougll of Swan- selL had derived by numbering Lord Swansea among its chief citizens of the amount o" work which he undertook and faithfully dis charged his perseverance and will in carry- ing tnrough wiaateyer he took i:, band, and his many good qualities which were obvious to those whom he addressed, there was no need for him (the speaker) to allude. Those attributes had pained for Lord Swansea the high regard of every inhabitant of the town by whom Ilia memory would for ever ba held dear. It. of course, would be weii- known to them all that, the se: eme for the conduct of which that committee had been founded had practically been conceived end earned through to a successful by his Lordship, who had taken the greatest int. rest in the work, and had beer one of thenmdest workers in the cause. He was the one man whose services the committee cculd iil afford to lose. Personally, he (Mr. Lindley) felt it would be only a iovul tribute to Lord Swansea's memory, and their dutv to to one of their foremost citizens, that thai, committee should adjourn to a dat ■ subse- quent to the last sad rites. Alderman Martin seconded, and the committee broke up THE LOSS TO THE DISTRICT. The loss to the Swansea district by the death of Lord Swansea will be irreparable both socially and commercially, as for over 40 years lie took a deen and active iderest I D the administrative work of Swansea, and al-o of county of Glamorgan. In addition to being one of the heads of the copper trade he was u larg colliery proprietor, and was also interested in works in Germany, ?p tin an. Canada.; and it is very largely due to his tact and enterprise that Swansea occupied such a prominent position in the metallurgical world. FAINTING FIT ON SUNDAY. Lord Swansea only returned from Cauada on Friday week, having Grossed the Atlantic in company with Ins daughter, the Hon. Violet Vivian, on a visit of inspection to some mining property. On Saturday last ho at-, tended the public function of ihe opening of ( Messrs, B. Evans and Company's premises at Swansea, and made a spesch, being t hen apparently in excellent health. ()u Sunday, j however, whilst at Skeity Church, he had a j f slight fit, but soon recovered and teemed a., i wc-ii as usuai, and on Monday niorui:>g iffi for London. ABERAVON. i At the Margani Works and tho Mcrfa Pit, Port Talbot, the news whs received with ma. y out-ward manifestations of 9 Trere are several hundred men employed at these works, and the deceased nobleman hud made himself oxtrembly popular here. He I used to pay occasional visits to Miriam and I Mcrfa. NEATH. The sftd intelligence of the sud en demise of Lord Swansea was convaved to the people of Neath through the medium of the Pest curly this (Thursday) morning. The lats Lord wits fainilizi- to the people of Neath by reason of his having represented the con- j stiiueticy of the Swansea District in Pari in- ment for many years. He was held in great respect, and the sudden termitiation to his brilliant career brought forth to feelings of intense sorrow. At first the sad news was discredited by many, but ere long the sorrowful tidings were fully compre- hended aDd the expressions of regret and sympathy were general. Lord Swar sea pRssed through Neath last evening by the 3.5b ¡ express from Haddington. Remarks were passed by those on the platform respecting his fine deportment, and. apparently there were no indications of his lordship being in I bad health. This t'act tellrlfd to intensify the I sad effcet caused by tis lordship's sudden death. CARDIFF. Reference was made at the Cardiff Public Works Committee yesterday to the death of Lord Swansea. Aldctnml1 Lewis, the chair- man, referred in sympathetic terms to tlw sad event, and a resolution ol sympathy was IF :s )d and forwarded to Lady$vv'iM»«»fc. "Observer," writing in theoditorialeolumns of tit5 Evening Express, says;-This morning brings the sad news o? the death of Lord Swansea, one oi those princes of industry wno have made the Principality what it is to-day. The copper cipital is shrouded in gloom deep as that which reigns ovei-thenai,,trat Nvorld,foi-its people 10ved Lcrd Swan sea vvtii, and with reason. When last ) sa.w Lord Swansea it was at the Gladstone banquet at Singleton. He looked hale and it then, a.nd an onlooker would have thought he would survive the ex-Premier by many a year. But Lord k»wausea is dead, while Mr. GlaJstono is described as in more buoyant health thsn ever. We live m a world of change?, and surprises! I WORKED HIMSELF TO DEATH. The London correspondent of the Mail seems to think that Lord Swansea was hurried to death. A journey to and from America, he says, followed by rushing to and 1 fro between London and Swansea. was more than ihe impaired vitality of his seventy- |three years could stand. As Sir Hassay Vivian ho was as one of the old j Parliamentary hands. He sat forty years in the Corarron*. The blot in his career was the s^jcepta nee of a peerage. He was the last man who ought to have iiiiien a peerage; from Mr. Cledstoae. After posing as a Liberri Unionist lor several -.ears he was con- verted" by the speech of Mr. Gladstone at Singleton. He was eonvcr ed, and La was made a peer. It is impossible to oiisoeiate the two thingg. Lord Swansea himself was apparently unconscious of the awkwardnei»s of his Dosificn. He was for eve: chattering in the Lords. He was not in tbe Lords long enough to become Tory, but, no doubt, the new Lord Swansea will, for all ths Liberals j become Tory when transplanted to the free- J dom and purity of the House of Lords. i HIS FAMILY. Lord Swansea had been married three I times-first, in 1847, to Jessie Dairympie, daughter of Mr. Ambrose Coddard. of Swin- don, who died a year after marriage, leaving as issue Ernest, the new Lord Swansea: secondly, in 1553. to Caroline Elizabeth, da-j*.hter cf the late Sir Montague J. i Cholmeley, Bart, M.P. who ai.d in 1868, leaving the Hon. Aubrey V, ivisn and thirdly, in 1870, to Aberil., daughturef Captain Richard Beaumont, R.N., who survives him, and by whom he has issue the Hon. Violet and the Mon. Averii Vivian, and two young sons. ARRIVALS AND CALLERS AT THE ABBEY. The Hon. Odo iviau, the youngest son of his iordship, arrived at Singleton from Cam- bridge about nine o'clock on Thursday night. The Hon. Harry Vivian is on his way home from Belgium, and expected at Stngleton to-night (Friday.) A large number of letters and telegrams were received during yester- day: and the foHowing representatives of local families called upon Lady Swansea:— Sir .John Jones Jenkins and Lady Jenkins, Mr. E. Rice Daniel, the Rev. E. W. Bolney (vicar of Sketty), Mr. and Mrs. F. S. Bishop, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Eden, ir. Gerald Eden, Miss l,in-isav Miss Booker, Mr. Felix H. Webber, Mrs. Webber, and Mr. H. D. Burnie, M.P. Among the large number who have sent letters of condolence are i!dr. and Mrs. M. B, Wiliiarns. of Kiilav, and Mr. Win. Williams, letters of condolence are ,11r, and Mrs. M. B, Wiliiarns. of Kiilav, and Mr. Wm. Williams, M.P. VOTES OF CONDOLENCE. At nearly ail the meetings of public bodies in the Principality yesterday (Thursday) votes of eondoicnee were adopted with Lady Swansea and tha Vivian family. The com- mittee oi" the University College of r-iouth Wales, with whinh his lordship was inti- mately associated (C'aron Thompson, D.D., in t';c cliair.), resolved That tb:s com- mittee of the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire, consisting of the united finance, house, and iibrary committees, hears with unfeigned regret the announce- ment of the sudden a:.d deplorable death of Lord Swansea, wlio for many years aetet' vs treasurer, and recently as a vice-president of this institution, and who, as one of its original founders aud a munificent donor to its funds, showed a never-failing interest ID its pros- perity and welfare and it further desires to convey to the mefabers of his !ord?feip'g family the aisurStace of its sympathy and regret, PRESS REFERENCES TO TH LATE LORD SWANSEA. The Western Mail in an tprreciative refe- rence says 'Lord Swansea was a many- sided man, more iio, probably, than any other man even: n a county like Glamorgan whion has ginm us in the present century so many versatile men. Fend &11 he was of metallurgy and trained to a commercial lifo from his boy- hood, he had also a relish, amounting to a passion for far ess exciting life of an agri- culturist.and was ona of .t'ne best stock breed- ers in South Wales, anC, his farm, a.t Park le Breos, in Gower, is a model of it- kind and an establishment of which a Prince might be proud < -n all questions relating to minerals he w s probably one of the. greatest authorities in the House of (om- mcii?. As a Libera! he wan out of hi? element. His instincts and temperament belied his political creed, and he could never be other than half-hearted and vac illating. His great false step as a, poli- ticinn was to succeed the la'c Mr, Talbot. in the representation of Glamorgan shire With Talbot's saantle he inherited ilis poli cy but failed where his predecessor had BUC- ceeded. Talbot was an autocrat, and could brook no opposition to his iron will. There were no caucuses in those days, at least not for the Lord of Maryum. Vivian was an autocrat, too, but the Radical element in his day showed signs of reaction, and with diffi- culty bo-c the vounger autocrat's yoke. Afraid to assert himself, yet unwilling to move as he was moved by his cait-, Lord Swansea's course w often doubtful aud inexplicable. The fact is he was on the wrong side of the bedge.. He ought to have been a Conservative. and might have been a less indifferentChurch- man. '{ hat he was sincere and conscieatious is not disputed. His name will live longer ar< a cornmcrcial magnate than either a social benefactor or a public character. His demise leaves a gap which it is impossible to nil up Ho had identified himself so intimately with everything he came in contact with that another Lord Swansea does not. exist." The South lVaÙs Daily News :—No man ever doubted the genuineness of Lord Swansea's Liberalism, or suspected him of time-tervingan « 'Hngon the fence ready to descend upon the s Je of tlvictor.

Swansea will be followed to liis tomb bv the! r.spccttul sympathy a.nd the sorrowing reir-sts of a whole nationality: and by the unfeigned gric. of ail who knew him per^analR and who tdmired him for his political eonsistenoy and L-steemed him for tbe nobility of his life aud chareeier." A TRTBUTK FROM THE IUIONDDA. "Mabon" and Mr. T, Ellis, Members of Parliament, aadressed a meeting of Liberals at Pentre last night, at which a resolution of coiidolenec v.ith Lady Swansea and the famiiy was passed. Mabou, in a speech brimming ovor with pathos, .-aid the late nobleman was one of the first in the lanil to recognise the rights of Labour to direct representation in the House of Com- mons, and in days long since, when in the Rhondda Labour and Liberalism were at! variance, his lordsfrp stood up manfully for the rights of Labour. As a large employer of iabour he invariably sympathised with the necessities of his workmen; while as. nclitican he fought for Liberalism wbeu Liberalism was not popular. Glamorganshire won id sever forget what his lordship had done for the Welsh community.—Mr. Tom I Eilis said thatwhetDer they regarded Lord Swaoaea as a great industrial prince, or as a .i¥_t \Yeieh edaeationalisk or as renreseuta- tive of Wales in Parliament, or as chairman of their highest reproaeotativo body, thoy could not but feci that Wales hsd suffered a real and a great loss, aud he only hoped, ard sincerely hoped, that there were many among t the great employens of in South Wales who wouid emulate the splendid example I which Lord Swansea, had given to his class and to his fellow-employers aud capitalists in South Wales. ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE FUNERAL. We are officially informed this (Friday) morning that the interment of the remains of the late Lord Swaueea will take place on Monday next in the famiiv vault, Sketty churchyard. The body was last; nigbt placed in a shell and it now reposes in the centre of the death chamber at Singleton Abbey, r&ised on oak pedestals. The fur,er*l at-raagements, as stated by us yesterday, have been placed in the hands of Mr. D. C. Jones, of Castie Square, Swansea and Messrs. B. Evans aud Co., will execute tha mourning order. Ihe funeral will be a public one. It has been decided to close all the board j schools unijer the juri»di«tion of'tne Swansea Board on the day of Lord Swansea's funeral. TOLL THE BELL.

LOCAL SIFTINGS. The Royal Welsh Ladies' Choir gave a concert &Z-- -eath last (Thursday) evening to a cro wded audience. i!adaii»|Clara Novello Davies conducted, aud Miss Winifred Evans was the accompanist. We understand that during his recent vilit to Canada the late Lord Swansea obtaineci important coairaccs the fulfilment of which will extend over 10 years. In consequence of this he was about to open the old copper works at Swansea. Jim Parfrey, a weii-known Swansea cyclist, left Swansea at 12 o'clock yesterday with the object of trying to iower the Swansea and London road record. He did not reach Newport till 6.45—very slow time. Parfrey rode one of his own machines, fitted with Professor Everett's patent spring tyres. Mr. John Williams (ErvrAfan), of Briton Ferry, sang with great succeiss at the Albert Hail, London, at Patti's concert on Wednes- day night. His songs were: I fear no Foe" and U True, true, till Death." Ervi- Afan is the tin-plate worker who charmed | Madame Patti with the beauty oi his voice, j and to whom she has given a magnificent introduction to the London musical world, The other singers were Mr. Edward Lloyd and Mr. Sant'.ey This (Friday) morning, tt the Swansea Guild-hall, Colonel C. Langtcn Coke, civil engineer, held a Local Government Board Inquiry into an application from the S amaa. Corporation for powers to borrow £ 700 for the re-construct "Da of a storm water outflow. None of the members of the corporation were present., the case for the corporation being stated by Mr. Miller, deputy-town-cierk, The number nf Nonconformist mayors, says a Cardiff contemporary, who have not bent the knee to the Baal of eustom" is greater than anticipated. Mr. Freeman, of Swansea, and Mr. T. Jones, of Newport, are not tke cn!y two who refused as mayors to attend a j place oc worship amid the pomp of clvic state. This year Mr. Lewis Lewis, the Mayor of Aberavon, attended his place of worship (tue English Presbyterian Chapel) in his accustomed manner. j Mr. J. L. Thomas, the guardian for j Llanedy, complained at tho meeting of the Llaneliy Board of Uuardians yesterday that the post-office at Pontardulais bad been re- j moved so far to the Glamorganshire side that j people in the Hendy bad to walk about a mi!e to fetch a penny stamp, and those at the further end of the village had to pay sixpence postage for telegrams. He was advised that the Board could not assist him, but he had substantial ground for a local petition to the proper quarters. Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin, the manager and manageress of the Salisbury Club, Swansea, are leving Swansea to-day. They possess the best wishes of a large circle of friends, many of whom during the last few days have made theni the recipients of several handsome presents, including the following :-iITer cruet from the staff; parse of gold from the members; box of silk hand- kerchiefs and gloves, silver-mounted malacca cane silver-mounted pipe and case, &e. At 2.55 this (Friday) morning information was received by Inspector Kieft at the High- stroet Poiice-station of a firs at 65, Matthew- street. The reel was despatched unJer the care of P.S. Nicholas (?) a6nd accompanied by P.C. Tucker (78). On arriving at the spot it was found that, the ground floor cf the back premises of a ttilor-a shop, occupied i by John Prosser, was in flames. The assist- ance of P.C.s' 92 and 49 was called in and the fire was extinguished with buckets of water at 3.45 a.m. About £60 worth of cloth- ing was destroyed, the value of which %,as not covered by insurance. Mr. William Hendcbourch Frirell, of 8. I Dynevor-place, Swansea, has been giving the official receiver some information respecting the business events which have led up to his being adjudicated bankrupt. Mr. Frizeil is a commission agent; he cniered upon the duties of that calling in September, 18S9, witb a capital of £ 10 His liabilities now are E530 3s. 9d., and his assets £ 69 2s. 9d., leav- log a deficiency of £ 461 Is.04d. He has not kept proper books of acconnt, On bad debts and bad trtlde are laid the onus of his present position. j In tho list of successes at the London final B. A, examination wc find that of Mr. Trevor Simons, youngest son of Mr. Simons, Woolen Factory, Forestfach. This young student having attended the Higher Grade Board School for four years, and having j passed 1st class in all the Seiencc and Art department examinations prepared for at that school, ultimately matriculated in the 1st division from Arnold College, Swansea, Subsequently be entered the University College, Aberystwyth, where he prepared and sat tor intermediate honours in 1893, and the final B.A. in October last. He has thus ob- tained his degree at the age of 19. We heartily congratulate Mr. Simons on his brilliant success and hope that he will roam- | tain the splendid honourable reputation he jha&w^

FOOTBALL NOTES. I I [BY FRXK LANCI."] It has been definitely decided that the Llaneliy T, Morriston match is to be played on the Morriston ground to-morrow. Owing to the fact that the Scarlets wouid have eight of their beat men, and Morriston two of their regular men, away at Newport, an attempt was made to postpone the match until Mon- day in order to aik>w tbe best teams of each club to appear, but as the "Scarlets could not see their way to play on Itlonday they will have to take their obance with six second teamers in their ranks. Morriston will have a fairly strong tearr. Though Tom Davies will be absent from the threequarter line, his plsv--e will be taken by Conway Rees, while Hill, who Vmff decided to take another week's rest, will be supplanted by Jcre Edwards. Dick Edwards, the popular skipper, intends to turn out aeain, and it is sincerely to be hoped that no recurrence of the weakness of his ktice will manifest itself. The hoys from Llansamiet will have a iarge order on hand to-morrow afternoon, wben they take on the Llaneliy Harlequins at Llaneliy. The latter tetm, which has been going very strong all the season, hold an un- broken record, aud I fancy it will take a better team than Llansamlet to upset it, it is earnestly to he hoped that there will be no repetition of the proceedings witnessed last week between Llansamlet and Yestalyfera. J The Swansea ,1 Rocker" team will journey to Knighton on Saturday for tha purpose of replaying their cup tie with the homesters. I must confess to having grave doubts as to the issue of the game. Knighton away are not Knighton at come, and when we consider the t.irrow iiiargin by which Swansea won a couplc of weeks since, the very open question of to-worrow's result will be made manifest One fact, however; gives reason for hope and it is that tho Swansea forward lino to-morrow will be considerably stronger titan it was last time. Whittick will partner on the rijrbt wing, while on the left Adamson joins Darlow. With Smith in the centre, little is left to be desired. I have no doubts ¡ as to the strength of the Swansea deienee- unless indcei Bird finds himself unable to take his place in goal, beilingbam. though a good man, is not nearly sc safe, and e?- j perienced as Bird, and 1 sincerely hope that the latter will make an effort to take his placu beneath the crossbar. j Swansea II. team meet Bridgend on Satur- i day at St. Helen's greund while the reserve I journey to Ammonford, there to try conclu- sions with the home team. The Rev. R. Roberts has been calling down upon bis head a good deal of adverse criticism from the football ODtuusiasts of Morriston, by the action taken by him last I Sunday, when, in the course of a sermon delivered at Ziou Chapol, he condemned the maniy pastime, declaring that its tendency was to lead young men astray. Young men,he said, could not find time to help witb Church I work, but tbey couiu find time to be secre- taries ù: football clubs. I admire the rev. j gentleman's outspokenness, but! don't admire his theological views! In the mount-imoe I fear I he will continue to preaeh unto an unbeliev- ing generation. There will be two abeentect to-morrow I from the Western Trial Team. Evan Lloyd replaces McCutcneon, and Dc i Fisher takes the place of C. B. Nieholl. In tikj Eastern team ths absence of Thomas and Cooper lets in Pearson and Boucher in the tiree-ql-, arter line. In the Eastern pack V.'aliace Watts, Gibbs, Frank Mills, and A, P. Hill will all be j unable to play, and in consequence piotess w;il be found for Marshall (Bradford), Hannen, Eilis, and two otliers. F. W. Cooper, the Bra.dford and ex-Newport plaver, has received high honour in being nicked Tor the North of England tum T. the South, while he is also picked for the Fast v. Welsh International Trial Match, Time alone will reveal bis intentions. It is not considered likely that C. B. Xichol will be seen in the Western ranks next Satur- day at New no st. The jourray is long and the weather is cold, aud C. IV belongs Lo the class of men who have long since passed their trial days. Apropos the lamentable u.jplay of the j Lausdowne team in South Wales and the press comments thereon, Shemrock," of the Athletic 3 eln:, delivers h follows:— i notice "The iard" sayfs, in his reference- to the Newport match, that the Irishmcu had never heard of the modern game. I will go farther, and bay that many of the M! had never heard of the ancient game. If tbey had they might have done better. The scratch fifteen of Ireland which made rings rounJ the champion Welsh team of the season be lore last, were able t" work the,, antediluvian racket a bit; and so were the lot who won th3 triple crown last year. They might-do it again this season, and SA, dear "Ba.rd,"ifyour cou"Lry is great, do "ct be too severe on the p< >r benighted wdd L isiiry. in short, he to our faults a little blind. Tell us what we shouid do, and l ow we should do it, and who knows bat in time we might send over a team sufficiently modern to hold t-neir own with Newport, or even to beat that con- that is uy,.)-to-dao in rugger «Wvbali—■& Welsh International fif-.e«r. An extraordinary fixture has been arranged between Neath and tite Welsh Regimental team, of Pembroke Dock. The visit to tue latter plaoe promises to be oi a more tbaa ordinary interesting character. Com- munications received by Mr. Price, the secretary of tbe Neath team, from t he cap- tain of tbe regiment, eonvey ths information that the visitors will be shown around tbe dockyard in the morning, when the features of interest will be explained W them. Later on the lads of CtateU Nedsi wiU lUllCD and tea-wili in fact be the truest of the officers of the regnaeat.. One interesting item in connection witb the negotiations which led up to tne arrange- ment of the fixture, was the request of the officers that Neath should not bring down a team which would whop the u military too severely. But mothin ti-, if what I have heard be true, that the military of Pcm- brose Deck have au organisation which wiii ma1;e a decant show. The visitors will have a ^iri-' good team. They will, of course, be without the services of Joe Davies, wbe goes East w.th the W-est Team.
