OFFICER EXECUTED. Facts of a Nile Tragedy. In view of the great agitation which the execn- tion of Lieut. Ali Hamdi Ayad at Khartoum has caused in the coantrv, it may be interesting (says the Daily Chronicle correspondent at Alexandria) to recall the circumstances of the crime for which he was punished, and which have not as yet been published. Lieutenant Ali Hamdi Ayad and his victim, Captain Mohamed Maher, of the 15th Sudanese Battalion, were ou board a NifeiBLeamer convey- ing a number of Egyptian troops from Khartoum to the liahr-el- Jhazal. A few days before the crime, Ali Ayad had neglected to carry out some orders, and Captain Maher complained to the commanding officer of the battalion. The latter reprimanded him severely, and from that day Lieutenant Ayad awore to be avenged. On the day of the crime Captain Maher gave instructions to Lieutenant Ayad to distribute black bread to the men. Phis order was dis- obeyed. His superior called him up, and Ali Ayad appeared in his night-shirt. Capt. Maher first reprimanded him for presenting himself in this garb, and theu for having disobeyed his orders. Avad left in a temper, and returned afterwards with a loaded revolver. Captain Maher was sitting near a. door, with his back turned to it. Ayad approached him and said," Yon are always complaining against me to the commanding officer and reprimanding me at every turn. Turn round, as I am going to fire on you." Captain Maher did not move, aayiug, Go away, and leave these things to children. I shall complain against you to the commanding officer avery time you neglect your duty." Upon this Ali Ayad fired twice, and the captain fell. The murderer then turned the revolver against himself, and attempted to commit sui- cide, but only wounded himself slightly in the neck. On bearing the shots the other officers lushed to the spot. Captain Maher had ceased to breathe. Ilia murderer was standing beside the corpse, What ha.ve you done Are you mad said one of his brother officers. No," replied he but I wanted to rid the officers of the battalion of Captain Maher." Ayad was condemned to death by a Court Mar- tial on July 15th, and executed at Khartoum on August 31st in the presence of the whole of the garrison. A crusade in his favour was conducted by the anti-British Press, and up to the last mo- ment hopes were entertained that; clemency would be extenaod. -¡.¡,

HOUSE WRECKING AT CARDIFF, Unoccupied Houses Damaged. At Cardiff Police Court on Wednesday (before Mr L. Samuel and Mr W. S. Crossman)jja woman named Margaret O'Leary (43), of Norah-street, was charged on a warrant with stealing a ban- nister and skirting board from an unoccupied house in Helen-street. A house agent, named Alfred Haime, said the house in question and several others adjoining had been unoccnpied for two or three months, daring which time they had been wrecked, and damage to the amount of at least JE150 had been done. The police found the prisoner in possession of the woodwork in question, but she alleged that it was brought to her house by one of her children. Superintendent Durston said the wilful damage to property in Helen-street was a very serious matter. No. sooner did a house become empty than unless special watch was kept upon it it waa wrecked. A fine of 40a or 14 days was imposed.

Race For the Pulpit. CHURCH IN AN UPROAR. Rival Pasters In Scetland. For days past a battle royal has been raging for the possession of a Scotch chcrch, and during, the struggle some extraordinary scenes have- been witnessed. The Reverend Robert Brown, pastor of the Dalkeith Evangelical Union Church, recently received from the Session notice to leave the church. But he refnssd to do so, some of the congregation supporting him, and, in conse- quence, there is a lively fight going on between the two parties. The pastor's notice has just ex- pired, and he should have left, bat he was not easily to be beaten. Late the next night he went to the church and began fixing new Jocks on the doors. One of the congregation belonging to the opposition was warned, and taking two police- men he and a crowd of people went to the church, insisted on being admitted, and made a noisy protest against the pastor b action. The noise lasted until long after midnight. The next morning's service marked the enl., minatbn of these disorders. A new pastor came) to conduct the service, but Mr Brown-declined to let him get into the pulpit. Hurrying into the pulpit himself, he gave out a hymn which the congregation sang. Then he read portions of the Scriptures and gave out hymns, never leaving the pulpit until the service was over. Whea.it was finished the Session clerk rose and protested. I The whole church was <n an uproar. Men and> women shouted against each other, and it seemed" that a free fight was imminent. The Rev. Mr Brown tried to close the vestry door, but after a straggle he had to abandon the; attempt, and finally the BtaJwarts on both side¡¡:, decided to remain where they were-in possession., Provipioiis were procured from the houses of the' village, and men and women ate food in the church. Several men went as far as the doors, where they solaced themselves with tobacco. During the afternoon the congregation sang hymns in unison. hymns in unison. At 6 o'clock Mr Brown, who had been in wait- ing in the vestry, mounted the pulpit and occu- pied it for two hours, giving out hymns and reading as he had done in the morning. Immediately after this service was over the pastor requested the opposition to go home and allow him to lock up the church. But Mr Stone, [ the Session clerK, said he would not leave the dis- missed minister in possession—be would rather stay there all night. Threats of assault and counter threats of Police Court proceedings passed freely during the uproar that followed, but eventually a com- promise was effected and the church locked up by the beadle. The reverend gentleman's explanation of the trouble is not the least extraordinary part of this strange affair. He says he has been dismissed because he has refused to marry a certain lady selected for him by the Session. He declined even the temptation of JE20 extra and some new furniture.

DOMESTIC INFELICITY. SAD DISCLOSURES AT CARDIFF. Separation Sought After 20 Years. Asad case of domestic infelicity came before the magistrates at Cardiff Police Court on Wed- nosday, the parties concerned being George .Pearce and his wife, Florence Pearce. Mr W. B. Francis appeared for the prosecution, and Mr St. John Francis Williams (instructed by Mr G. F. Hill) for the defence. Mrs Pearce was charged under the Licensing Act, 2902, with being an habitual drunkard, and was called upon to show cause why an order should not be made providing that her husband should no longer be bound to cohabit with ber. Mr Francis, in opening the case, said that George Pearce was a picture frame dealer carry- ing on business in Queen-street, and he was mar- ried to defendant about 20 years ago at Bristol, and until about five years ago they lived happily together. During the latter period, however, Mrs Pearce bad on many occasions given way to habits of intemperance, but proceedings against her had been withdrawn upon her promise to re- iform. George Pearce was subjected to a long ex- amination to prove his wife's intemperate habits, He spoke of her having about six weeks ago-taken a boat trip to Ilfracombe,, and his having followed her later in the day, and found, her standing on the step of an hotel drunk. On that occasion she struck him several times. On the 18th ult. he found a bottle of whisky in her pocket, and he had found bottles of brandy all over the house. He cited a nnm- -bar of instances in which she had returned home- in a state of intoxication, and said that on one occasion he found a bottle of whisky hidden in. 1tbe lavatory. On another day from information received he went with his daughter and his wife's Bister to a newspaper shop in Freaerick-streefc and found her lying across a dirty table drunk with a. bottle of brandy near her. She was taken home in a cab. On a day just before the Cardiff Flower Show she was drunk and, threatened him with a carving knife. Generally, when the defendant was in drink she was in- capable of attending to herself or her household duties. Mr Pearce said he was qnite willing to make an allowance towards his wife's support. He denied that he had been systematically guilty of brutality towards her. Mr Francis admitted that when Mrs Pearce was sober she was an excellent woman of busi- ness, an excellent wife. and an excellent mother.. Dr. Pritchard gave evidence of having found Mrs Pearce very much under the influence of drink, and said ho had been surprised at the husband's restraint. Dr. W. G. Williams gave similar evidence, and Miss Pearce corroborated her brother's evi- dence. Mrs Pearce went into the witness-box, and alleged that her husband had systematically ill- treated her. She categorically denied the charges of drunkenness. Mr St. John Francis WiIliamHf in addressing, the Bench for the defence, whilst admitting that Mrs Pearce may have occasionally drank to ex* cess, contended that evidence did not justify the allegation that she was an habitual drunkard. The Bench came to the conclusion that the complainant was entitled to relief. They granted a separation, directing that the husband should pay his wife 20s per week, he no longer being bound to cohabit with her.

Be had collected t22 12s Id from a steamship, due to the firm, and had told witness that be had paid It in. but witness's information was that be had not done so.

IMPORTANT CARDIFF ARREST. LIGHT ON A LLANDAFF-ROAD BURGLARY House Agent's Serious Loss. As the result of a recent smart arrest by the Cardiff police another burglary mystery seems on the point £ of solution. It will be recalled that some time since, Mr A. H. Dutton, house and estate agent, residing in Llandaff-road, Cardiff, reported to the police that someone bad entered his bedroom during the night, extracted his keys from hia'pockot. opened the safe down- stairs, and stolen nearlyl £ 200. The police made a thorough investigation, but were unable to dis- cover the thief. The arrest of a man on another charge a few days since led to the police finding some keys, which, it is understood, Mr Dutton has identified as his property, and to the dis- covery of a bicycle stolen from the house at the same time as the theft of the money.

PRINCE'S GRAVE DEFILED. Dutch Not Implicated. Cape Town, Saturday Morning.—The public here, who have been excessively shocked by the outrage on Prince Christian Victor's grave, were full of sympathy yesterday when Princesm Chris- tian took her departure for the north. Her smil- ing recognition of all salutations clearly indi- cated that she was ignorant of the attempt to de- fila her son's grave. The South African News this morning expresses its abhorrence of the plot, and says that an assurance that the Dutch were not parties to the outrage is unncessary. Further the News resents the growing fashion in South Africa for making the Dutch scapegoats for every ontrage.-Central News.

He did not know what course the Bench would think proper to adopt. The Stipendiary said it was clear the boys could not be charged with the offence named. If the Bench dealt with them at all, it most be for indecent assault. Alderman J. W. Evans said the boys had been severely, punished by their parents.

I THE WHITE HORSE OF LLAN.

I THE WHITE HORSE OF LLAN. LLANTWIT MAJOR'S WHITE LADY. Local Ghosts Seen Recently. Ghost stories of a lurid type are being told at r Maesceg, and the visions said to have been seen by some of the matter-of-fact colliers of this go- ahead mining town bid fair to eclipse the imagi- native stories of the Arabian Nights. Phantom horses are said to te driven around the yard of St. David's Welsh Church by a transparent bogey, and though it is not stated in so many words, it may be taken for granted that from the widely distended nostrils of the animals issued fiery breath which scorched the churchyard grass and warped the paint on the boundary railings. A phantom donkey is said to have vanished into space on being aroused by a correspondent with a kick. Whatever reliance may be placed cn the stories it is certainly true that Maesteg has its stock of weird ghost stories. There is the tale of the White Horse of Llangynwyd. This mysterious horse, white as snow, is said to haunt the lanes and fields near Llangynwyd. famous as the home and burial place of the Maid of Cefn Ydfa. Two men at least claim to have encountered this ghostly animal. One, a butcher, when riding on horseback one evening saw it looking at him over a gate near Cwmcorion. So startled was he at coming face to face with the famous White Horse that without waiting to investigate further he turned his mount around and gal- loped homewards as fast as his frightened steed would go. Another man, who tells the tale now, was driving through alane near Llangynwyd one moonlight night. Suddenly barring his way, 11 at, a milk-white horse appeared before him. The quadruped he was driving reared and snorted with fright, and the driver, strong man as be was, broke out into cold perspiration. Then the milk-white horse turned, and after gallop- ing some distance up the stony lane, without making the slightest sound, took a huge leap over the hedge and vanished. Stories of phantom funerals met on the way to Llangynwyd Churchyard are numerous. One dark winter's evening a young man, who had been to Llangynwyd to transact business, was return- ing to Maesteg on horseback. Turning a bend in the roadway ue saw approaching him out of the darkness a hearse with a. long procession of mourners. Convinced that this was a phantom funeral, he whipped up his trembling horse and took a short cut toCwmcerdin, which he reached in a flurried and excited condition. There he recovered hia shattered nerve somewhat on being informed that the cortege he had met was a belated funeral from Abergwynfi. Among other weird stories is the experience of a party of card players. While they were having a game of cards in the back room of a public- house at Maesteg a midget black man suddenly and mysteriously appeared on the tableland began dancing about. Scared beyond measure the men threw down the cards and rushed pell- mell from the room. Again, a party of young colliers were playing cards on a mountain side near the Maesteg Deep Colliery. A complete stranger strolled along and was invited to join in the game. He had most marvellous luck, and quickly won all the money of his new companions. They began to stare at him in ustonishment. The eyes of one alighted on his feet. They were cloven hoofs. With a yell the party of young collieri rose as i one man ;md sprinted ai though they wore seven-league boot*. Whether founded on fact or purely fictional, 1 these ate some of the local ghost yarn" told at [ Maesteg firesides on winter evenings, and among the groups of colliers in tbe dinner spell at the worka. One of the most weird of ghost stories is that concerning the White Lady of Llantwit Major. Between Llantwit and Llanicaes, at a vtrv lonely spot; are four cross-roads. ^heplacc;^ kuowh as Gallows Way, local tradition having it that on the trees at the Hide of the road thieve- were hanged in the good old times." Close b", on the side of the road, is a pool known as the White Pool, and it has been said as long as the oldest inhabitant of Llantwit can remember that this pool is hanuted by a lady dressed all in white. The apparition is said to hurry acioss the road near the pool, and suddenly vanish with a blood-curdling shriek. Residents upon whose; word reliance can bo placed allege that the appa- rition of the White Lady has recently been seen several times. j

HUSBAND'S SAD POSITION. The charge sheet at Newport Police Court on Wednesday contained a case against Obema Routley, a married woman living in Power street, of neglecting her five children, the prosecution being undertaken by the N.S.P.C C. Defendant, however, did not appear, and Mr Lyndon Moore, for the prosecution, said ha was afraid be should have to ask for a warrant to be issued for her arrest. The husband was a most respectable man, and was to be greatly sympathised with. He was a railway guard,and had to be away three or four Javs at a time. He could not leave his children in the cujtodv of defendant, and he (Mr Moore) asl{8:J that they should go to the Work- house in the father s absence, and pending tie appearance of the woman in court. The Clerk The Bench can't order that. The guardians won't receive them. They are not destitute. Mr Moore But what is the poor man to do ? He has to go away this afternoon, and he won't be back till Friday. The Clerk Well, the magistrates can do nothing. He must make the best arrangements he can. P.C- Friend stated that when he served defen- dant with the summons she said, I am sorry it has come to that. I thought the inspector would have looked it over once again." Defendant's husband came forward, and in reply to the clerk said his wife prepared to come to court that morning, and be did not know why she was not present. Mr Moore You are going to take out a sum- mons yourself for a separation, I believe ?—Yes. The Bench ordered a warrant to issue.

SWANSEA SEWERAGE SCHEMES Ratepayers' Meeting. A public meeting was held at St Helen's, Swansea, on Wednesday evening, under the presidency of Colonel W. L. Morgan, to con- sider the proposed western or Brynmill drainage scheme for the borough. The Chairman said his objection was to the septic tanks, which would be offensive, whilst without filter beds the sewage would be deposited on the sands. Mr John Williams said it appeared that the con- veners of the meeting were thinking of self- interests and the value of property. He con- tended that the Brynuiill scheme was inevitable. The, pier head scheme, if it cost £ 100;000, would not provide for the extension of Swansea for the next ten years. Mr Viner Leeder spoke against the scheme. Mr R. H. Martin said what did it matter whe her the sewerage wenl into the bay in two plac j or in one. Mr John Thomas, surveyor, said he septic tank principle was not suitable to Brynmill. Councillor Hon. Odo Vivian, whilst strongly opposing the Bryn- mill scheme and the septic tanks, said he would save the town expense by a tunnel sewer from Singleton Upper Lodge, by duplicating the Walter-road sewer and extending the six foot « =ewer from Mount-street to Oxford-street. This would only cost £ 8.000. Alderman Rawlings favoured the Brynmill scheme. They had added the septic tank to meet the objections of Colonel Morgan :and others. The Council were not wedded to the septic tank, but they were to the autlet. Mr Beor proposed a resolution condemn- { ing the septic tank proposal at Brynmill. Mr Walter Lewis seconded, and this was carried by 30 votes to 19. Mr Leeder proposed a resolution in favour of the pier head scheme. aa against I Brynmill, and this was also carried.
