General Election Near ? MINISTERIAL STATEMENTS. Two Diverse Views. At Bristol on Saturday the general committee of the North Somerset Liberal Association unanimously adopted Mr Joseph King, of Sandhouse, Witley, Surrey, as prospective candidate in place of Mr Bateman Hope, M.P., who will retire at the next election. Sir Edward Strachey, Bart., M.P., Trea- surer of the Household, presided at the meet- ing, and thanked the association for having invited him to be their candidate, but, after representing South Somerset for sixteen years, and ascertaining that his constituents desired him to continue to represent them, he was un- able to accept the invitation of NorthSomerset. Alluding to Mr King, Sir Edward said North Somerset would have in their new candidate a gentleman who had done great service for the Liberal party, and had made a plucky fight in the New Forest Division and in the Tha.net division of Kent. The vacancy in North Som- erset would not occur immediately, and he could assure them,as a member of the Govern! ment, that there was not going to be a General Election just yet awhile. (Applause.) Mr King was adopted candidate amid much enthusiasm. On the other hand, Mr R. Winfrey, M.P., private secretary to Earl Carrington, Presi- dent of the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, speaking at Watton, Norfolk, said the Gov- ernment had rocks ahead, and it was possible, although he did not consider it probable, that next year there might be a dissolution. If the House of Lords proved unreasonable upon the Licensing and Education questions, it might be necessary for the Government to go to the country for a mandate to deal with the hereditary Chamber. Liberals must accord- ingly keep their powder dry.

Mr Plowden on Courtship GIRL'S GIFTS WITH STOLEN MONEY. Courtship was ably discussed by Mr Plowden at Marylebone on Saturday, when he had before him a good-looking girl, Julia Dawson (19), a domestic servant, of Cochrane street, St. John's Wood, charged on remand with steal- ing £6 in gold, belonging to Miss Annie Euphemia Elsworth, a lady of independent means, residing at Finchley-road, St. John's Wood. The prisoner at first denied having had the money, but afterwards remarked, I will show where it is," and produced one of the marked sovereigns from a drawer in her bed- room, adding, I am very sorry. I don't know what made me do it." Sergeant Bowden explained to the magis- trate that the young woman had been keeping company with a young man, to whom she had been making presents. He had seen the young man, who had handed him a dressing- case, a watch and chain, and a pendant. When these were shown to the prisoner she candidly admitted that she had bought them with some of the money she had stolen. Mr Plowdejn said he should like to see this young man, and a young fellow emerged from the rear of the court, and entering the witness- box, said he had been keeping company with the accused for three years. Mr Plowden (astonished): You must have commenced very early, for I see the young woman is ordy 19 now. Are you going to marry her? The young man hesitated, and ultimately said he had not thought about that. Mr Plowden Did she give you these hand- some presents ?—Yes. Have you ever given her a present ?—Yes. What was it ?—A brooch. Mr Plowden (sarcastically) No wonder you enjoyed the situation. Stand down. Mr Kirby, the court missionary, appealed to the magistrate on behalf of the prisoner. Her father, he said, would take her away into the country from her bad companions. Mr Plowden But there's bad company in the country. Besides, she has a young man. If she goes into the country and is attracted by another young man I hope she will never steal for the sake of giving him presents. That is not the way to carry on a courtship. Continuing, his Worship told the prisoner that many a person had been sent to prison for less than she had done. He would, however, allow her to go with her father after she had entered into her recognisances in JE20 to come up for judgment if called upon.

PASSION FOR MORPHIA* Enough of the Drug Daily to Kill 13 Men A remarkable storywaB told at North Shields when Annie Bailey (42), residing at Whitley Bay,was charged with having obtained by means of false pretences goods to the value of 4s 9$d from Annie Graham between July 9th and 17th. -Mr^Orahititt'Siiid 6h6'rfcSWtife<l"|on businesses1 a c v.ifectioner. On the 9th ult. the accused came to the shop and asked to be supplied with a quantity of cakes and other goods. She gave'the nartie of Robson; and described hfer- self as the wife of a sea-going engineer. She said she was expecting her husband's half-pay, and that she would call and pay for the goods on the following day. Upon this representation she was supplied with cakes, &c., to the value of 4s 9id. Witness afterwards made inquiries, and found that the statements made by the woman were false. The husband of the accused said something would harve to be done with her. She had been deceiving him for 10 years, and had got him into trouble in money matters. She was a physical wreck, and took daily as much morphia as would be sufficient to kill 13 ordi- nary men. She injected the drug in her arm l1y means of a hypodermic syringe. Questioned by the Bench as to why she took the morphia., the accused paid she went through an operation some nine years ago, and she had felt it necessary to take the drug ever since. She injected one grain of it into her arm four times a day. Th 3 magistrates remanded the accused.

COMMONS AUTOCRATIC? And American Liberty a Myth. The Constitution Congress, organised by the British Constitutional Association held its final sitting on Saturday at the Franco* British Exhibition. Lord Milner attended, but did ot take part in the debate. The discussion covered a wide range, in- cluding the constitution of the United States, London government, and the position of the House of Lords in respect of the Old Age Pen- sions Act. In regard to the latter, Sir William Chance described the speech of Lord Lans- downe a3 dignified, and said we were in danger of autocratic government by the Commons. Mr Robert W. Chapin opened a discussion on the Constitution of the United States. Pro- fessor Dicey, in the discussion which followed, saidlnat the melancholy paradox of the United States was that, while the citizens of the United States were possibly superior to the citizens of most of the countries of Europe,and\ had started with advantages unknown to anyv other country, a candid American would have to admit that they were not much better governed than most of the countries of Europe, and a candid European critic would say that they were not much worse governed than some of the countries of Europe. It was a paradox that a good and noble people were governed in a way which wcmld not be tolerated in Paris, London, or BefTin. The reason was that they had applied democratic government where de- mocratic government was inapplicable. He did not think the Supreme Court of the United States could be safely introduced in France, in any Continental country, or, in- deed, in England itself.

500JOOO HADDOCKS BURNT. The premises of one of the largest haddock curers in London, situate on the banks of the Surrey Canal in Camberwell, were destroyed by fire on Sunday and over half a million haddocks were burned. The buildings are in the centre of the timber industry in South-East London, and are closely sur- rounded by great stacks of timber. The attention of the fire brigade was successfully directed towards saving these when it was found that the- haddock curing premises were doomed. Another measage states that the premises of Messrs Harris, the well-known baby carriage lmakers, were involved simultaneously with those of the-fish curer's, and both premises were practically burnt out. i

BASS & CO. Lord Burton on Licensing Bill. Lord Burton presided on Monday over the annual meeting at Burton of Bass, Rat- cliffe, and Gretton, which for the first time was thirown open to the Press. In moving the adoption of the report, which showe'd a profit of £295,046, and recommended a dividend of 11 per cent., agaijost 14 per cent, in 1907 and 1906, the Chairman said he did not intend making a long speech opi the licensing question, for such could be better reserved for the autumn, when they could come to closer grips with their adversary. The main reason of the drop in the dividend was the uncertain position of the trade, which caused an increase in bad debts. Colonel Gretton seconded, and the report was adopted.

A,S.R.S. DEMONSTRATION AT BARRY. MR W. BRACE, M P, ON ORGANISATION, The first annual demonstration of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Distript Council of the Amalgamated Society of Hailway Servants was held at Barry on Sunday afternoon in beautiful weather. About 803 railivaymen from various parts tof the district were present, and formed in procession outside Barry Railway Station. Headed by the Barry Temperance Band and a banner, they paraded the main streets of Barry and Barry Dock, and afterwards re- turned to Romilly Park, where they were joined by a. large number of the general public. Two platforms were provided for speakers, who in- cluded Mr XV. Brace, MJP.Mr G. J. Wardle, M.P., Mr James Holmes (of Doncaster), Mr James Winstone (miners' agent), and others. Presiding at No. 1 platform, Councillor Morgan Nicholas, of Barry, sa.id they had met for the first time in the history of tho. South Wales Council for organisation purposes. On behalf of the town of Barry he offered the rail- waymen a hearty welcome, and hoped their visit would be pleasant and profitable. Trade Unions and Political Action. Mr W. Brace, M-P-, who was cordially received, said he was delighted to take part in that gathering, believing strongly as he did that workers must have a strong combination before it was possible for them to secure their rights. They might have political action and powerful poli ical organisations, but they must have their Trade Union to give force and power to political action. He rejoiced with them that they had now established a Con- ciliation Board with an arbitrator to finally determine any points of difference between them and their employers. He had for years contended that conciliation was by far the best system of settling disputes between capital and labour in preference to strikes or lock-outs. What he wanted to inppress upon railway workers generally was to join their Union, and not to beled away with the thought that they could secure by individual effort what they could by collective, bargaining. Upon no principle of equality or justice could men receive the advantages of Trade, Unionism or Conciliation Boards without contributing to the up-keep of those institutions, and he looked upon every man outsideaTrade Union as not a friend to himself or family, and by no means a friend to his fellow workers. (Hear, hear.) What was more, he was not a friend to the employers, because the employers gained as much as the workmen by the establishment of great unions, which prevented conflicts between capital and labour. (Hear, hear.) The recent decision in a court of law that Trade Unions were free to manage their own affairs, and find money for maintaining representatives inPariiament was a right and proper one. (Applause.) They had a judge sitting who knew something about the great Trade Union movement of this country, and was not to be influenced by wild state- ments made by members of the House of Commons who had practically no connection with the workers, and lacked the knowledge of what it meant to live on a small wage and rear a family respectably. (Hear, hear.) Working Classes and War. Referring to the disagreement between Trade Union members and members of the I.L.P. on the question of armaments, Mr Brace said he took his stand with those who expressed their desire and determination to bring about a better understanding between Germany and this country, for whoever stood to gain from war the working classes stood to lose every time. (Applause.) He regretted that Mr Hynd- man and Mr Blatchford, two of the leaders of -the ultra-Socialists of this country, should have shown a jingo spirit in advocating large arma- ments, anticipating a war between Germany and Britain, and advocating preparations for war. He (Mr Brace) maintained that was not the policy that was to carry into the homes of the people of Great Britain the standard of comfort and contentment that they ought to enjoy. (Applause.) Mr J. Holmes followed with a vigorous address, and Mr W. Craik also spoke. The following resolution was submitted and carried unanimously :— That this meeting of South Wales railway- men endorses the settlement which provides a Conciliation Board and an arbitrator for settling disputes as to hours and wages upon railways, and urges upon all railwaymen the need for membership of the A.S.R.S. It further rejoices-, to know the recent legal action against the A.S.R.S. has resulted in the decision that the political policy of Trade Unions is a matter for the members of such bodies to decide for themselves, believing that only by combining political action with the industrial policy can the salvation of the workers be assured. At No. 2 platform a similar resolution was submitted and also carried unanimously. Mr G. J. Wardle,M.P.,in supporting the resolution, said that officialism was the curse of the railways to-day, and it was probably true that the directors were not so much to be b'apcxed &§ th £ officials. „w;%sl reminded that in Barry., they were practical sufferers from this officialism. He urged his hearers to remember that only by combination /conldr!tty}yjApRiause.). „ Mr J. Winstone (Pontypool), and Mr E. Clarke (Quaker's Yard) also delivered addresses..

ABERDARE MARRIEDTEACHERS Csunci) Resents a Letter. At a meeting of the Aberdare District Council on Monday, Mr Yoxall, M.P., the general secretary of the N.U.T., wrote asking the Council to arrange a conferefice of the Educa- tion Committee in reference to the alleged unfair dismissal of certain married female teachers, as he felt some satisfactory solution would be arrived at. Mr D. T. Davies Is that letter in order ? Have we a right to deal with education matters here ? Mr D. J. Thomas I do not think it is. I believe Mr Yoxall is interfering- in a manner which is not proper. I move that the letter lie on the table. Mr T. Walter Williams, the chairman of the Education Committee, seconded. Mr J. H. James moved that the letter be referred to the Education Committee. Mr L. N. Williams seconded. Mr Ov Powell What for T I think Mr Yoxall knows very well that the Council has no power to deal with the matter. It is out of order. On being put to the vote, eight voted that the letter lie on the table, and three that it be referred to the Education Committee. Mr D. J. Thomas's motion was therefore carried. £1,000 FOR SWANSEA HOSPITAL At a special meeting of the Swansea Hospi- tal Committee on Monday a letter was re- ceived from Mrs John White announcing her intention of subscribinK- £1,000 towards the funds of the hospital, with the suggestion that the sum should be applied to the endowment of a bed in the hospital in memory of her late husband, Mr John White, J.P. 7 Mr Charles Tuckfield presided over the meeting.of the Board of Management of the Hospital, to whom this offer was addressed, and explained that a cheque for £1,000 had been received from Mrs White by the secre- tary. A resolution of thanks to Mrs White Was rnoved by the Chairman, seconded by Colonel Morgan, and carried. It was decided to agree to the establishment of a John 'White bed. The receipt of' £20 9s 6d, the proceeds of a day's wbrking of Messrs Wilkie and Jarvis's merry-go rounds on the sands, was also ac- knowledged with thanksy It was decided to Accept the tender of Messrs H. Billings and Co. of £ 1,589 10s for the carrying out of alterations, improvements, and repairs at the Hospital.

EfPRE88EP PENITENCE. Foolish Employees Offence. George Brown; Charles Mullett, and Joseph Murray were charged at Barry Dock Police Court on Monday with stealing a quantity of iron and rope, value 10s, the property of the Mount Stuart Dry Dock Co., Cardiff. Mr Handcock (of Messrs Donald Maclean and Handcock) prosecuted, while Mr Sydney Jenkins, Cardiff, appeared for the defence. Mr Handcock said that the men were working at Barry Dock on the ss. Harrovian for the Mount Stuart Company on Friday, and the iron And rope should have been sent back in a cart when the job was finished, but instead of that they tried to dispose of it a* a local marine store dealer's. Dock Constable Harpur, who said he saw defendants trying to sell the gear, stated that Mullett replied, We are only selling a little to have drink on the road back." For the defence Mr Jenkins admitted the theft, but pleaded for clemency, as defendants had previously had good characters and were very penitent. In view of this appeal the Bench firied each defendant 10s or seven days.

PHENOMENAL MACKEREL SEASON. The American Consul-General at Halifax states in a report that the catch of mackerel in Nova Scotia waters this season is one of im- mense proportion, and vessels are breaking al previous records. So prolonged t has been the catch so far this season that it puzzles the fishermen to handle it. The supply of barrels being low, fs'termen are preparing to pack the mackerel in puncheons, boxes, old boats or anything else they ca,n find. Other than the shortage of barrets, tide only drawback is in the sup ly of salt, which is running low in many of the ports along the coast. Old fisher- men state that never before in their recollec- tion have themackerel been so numerous along this coast, and with the fine weather they are reaping a great harvest. The mackerel are salted and sell wholesale from 46s to 54s a barrel, being shipped principally to Boston and New York and the cheaper grades to the West Indies.

Mr Bpstock has received a cablegram from Barnum and Bailey's in America making an offer of 15,000 dollars for Uneeka," the anitnalnewto natural history. Mr Bostock haslreplied stating that he will accept nothing under 25,000 dollars.

Breconshire Miser's Hoard. RECLUSE -WHO PREPARED HIS OWN TOMBSTONE. The story of the discovery, under myste- rious circumstances, of a miser's hoard of gold in his hut on the hillside comes from the vil- lage ot Bwlch, in the Usk Valley of Brecon- shire. An oilman, known in his native land as Jack o' Jim," lived the life of a hermit in a stone hut on Mynydd Troed, a hill on the Black Mountain range, overlooking the beau- tiful Usk Valley and the juiet little village of Bwlch, since tlte death of his parents, when he was quite a young man, until his death at the age of 90. In his old age he earned his living as a messenger to the markets of Brecon and other towns for the villagers. The purchase of any article, from a tin cooking panto a zin bucket, could be entrusted to old Jack o' Jim," and he would execute a dozen orders for his clients," and carry the utensils eight miles from the town of Brecon, for the 3um of 6d and a cup of tea or a pint of beer at the end of his sixteen miles journey. He was an expert at snaring game. What he did not use himself he sold, and as people often gave him food he had little need to spend the money thus gained. He lived the life of a recluse, and seldom attended any place of worship, or showed himself to the country folk, excepting on market day. He always guessed the time by the movements of the sun, and his once black clothes were green with age and exposure to the weather on his hillside home. Some years before his death he hewed a gravestone for himself out of a quarry on the hill near his house, and gave the order to have it engraved, excepting for the date of his death. This interesting and somewhat grue- some spectacle was the subject of much dis- cussion at the time, and many people visited his place of abode to see the stone which the old man had prepared in anticipation of the event." He always resented the intrusion of visitors to his domain, and would accept no gift which would tend to add to his home comfort, such as bedclothes and the like, which were sOTLetimes offered by the country people. His bed was of fern cut from the hill and laid upon some boards and stakes which jutted from the wall. It was near his bed," in a crevice in the wall, where his hoard was ulti- mately found. After his death some of the relations of the old man had several hunts for the money which they thought he had left behind him, but for some time they failed to locate it. It got abroad recently that the hoard bad at last been found, but it was not made known how much the savings amounted to, although it is certain that his once poor relations have been left comfortably well off, for they have com- menced to farm a smallholding, which includes some land around the dwelling of their late relative, whilst they have also invested in a horse and trap, cows, sheep, and bicycles. The body of Jack o' Jim now rests in the graveyard of the village church, and his own headstone has been fixed up to mark the spot.

ABERDARE BANKRUPTCY COURT. Cwmtaff Farmer's Borrowings. On Monday at the Temperance Hall, Aber- dare, before Colonel Phillips, the Deputy Registrar, Thomas Lewis, Wern Farm, Cwmtaff, at- tended his adjourned examination. Debtor said he had been previously unable to prepare a cash account but he was now in a position to do so. He was examined as to an amount owing to his brother, Mr Henry Lewis, at Barry, and admitted that his statement at the previous examination was not correct. He hao also borrowed zC20 from his brother, the Rev. John Lewis, but that had been repaid. He was examined at considerable length on his various transactions with firms of money- lenders. In one case he had borrowed E20 from H. T Lewin & Co., in 1905, giving a bill for JE50. payable at L5 a month until it was repaid. In another case he had paid E6 for the loan of tl2 for four months. He had some borrowing tran sactions with John Thomas, a stonecutter, of Cefn, at an interest of 65 per cent. per annum, as well as several similar transactions, one with Miss Davies, of Nantygwynau Farm, Cwm- taff, to whom he paid over the last cheque received for milk the day prior to filing his petition. He used to besupplied with 18 gallons of milk daily at 9d per gallon, which he used to cart to Merthyr^Workhouse, a distance of seven miles, and sell it there at a profit of td a gallon. Colonel Phillips Do you mean to say that you only got 9d profit for the use of yourself, cart, and horse per day ? Witness Yes, sir, that was all. Colunel Phillips I thought the board of guardians paid Trade Union wages that does not look likely. (Laughter.) 'The examination wa adjourned. Female D^or Warned. j^njelia Fine, who was represented by Mr W. Thomas, Aberdare, acting for Mr T. Thomas, Bargoed, attended her adjourned examination and submitted an amended cash account show- ing her transactions with Isaac Barnett, of Bargoed, her son-in-law. This account, how- ever, was incomplete, as an item of £50 received in January on a bill of sale for all fur- niture in the shop was not included, neither were various sums alleged by her to have been lent her by her son-in-law included in the ac- count, and she was instructed to further amend these accounts, Debtor admitted thatsince Sep- tember last she had ordered goods to the extent of some JE300. She was pressed as to the disposal of these things, and especially as to the disposal of a piano, several suites of fur- niture, sideboards, and other articles, but she could give no particulars, her explanation being that she did not manage the business, but that her daughter, who was now married and residing at Penrhiwceiber, controlled it. She was warned by the Deputy Registrar that unless she submitted amended accounts severe steps would be taken against her. The examination was again adjourned.

TALGARTH COMPANY'S CHURCH PARADE. The Talgarth Company of Territorials, between 60 and 70 strong, attended Church parade at Llangorse Church on Sunday even- ing. The company fell in at the Armoury about 3.30 under the command of Captain D. Hughes-Morgan. Accompanied by Lieut. Dr. Pugh and Lieut. D. Jones, and headed by their bugle band. they marched to Llangorse, where they arrived about 5 p.m. Immediately upon arrival the company were most hospitably entertained to tea by the vicar. They then attended service, when the vicar of Llangorse preached. The company returned via Llanfi- hangel, arriving at Talgarth about 9.45.

GOT NO RELIEf I FROMECZEMA Which Spread Over Hands, Arms, Neck, and Face-Face so SwoHen She Could Not See- Doctor Called It Incurable- Treated by Many but Grew Steadily Worse UNTIL WHOLLY CURED BY CUTtCURAREMEDtES My wife was cured of eczema about six years ago. It came between her fingers and on the pafens. She was ad- vised by friends/first to try one thing and then another but it conturaed to spread to the elbows. She had the ad- vice of three doctors. The first said there was no cure. The second said the disease was due to the change of air and water — our home being m Kent. She continued with him for about three months 'but she still got worse. Much against my wish she went to the hospital. They gave her a prescription for ointment only. That did not satisfy me, so after a week I went with her to another doctor, as the eczema began to show on her face. He said he could cure, her but it wouid take a long time. He attended her five weeks, giving her medicine and oint- ment. She soon went from bad to worse. Her hands, neck, and face be- came swoiien. For two days she could not see out of her eyes. I was in terrible trouble. A feHow workman asked me if she had tried Cuticura. His uncle suffered with eczema and found great benefit from the Cuticura Remedies. I then got a set for my/wife to try. I commenced with great eagerness. For three days she was bathed freely with Cuticura Soap before we could remove the crust of matter and ointment which had formed. Then things began to change, the swelling went down and she could move her fingers and feed her- self. We continued using nothing but the Cuticura Remedies and in three months' treatment my wife derived a complete cure. I shall at any time be pleased to recommend the Cuticura Remedies to sufferers. G.

Welsh Slate trade. PRESENT DEPRESSION EXAMINED. Two Fallacies Exposed. Never perhaps ha3 the Welsh slate trade experienced a more severe depression than that through which it is now passing. Wages have been reduced, quarries are working five days instead of six, and thousands of people have already emigrated from Festiniog and the quarry districts of Carnarvonshire. The Genedl has instituted an exhaustive' inquiry into the causes and effects of the de- pression and Is publishing a report in a series of articles. In its issue for to-day (Tuesday) the journal deals with the question of foreign slates in their relation to the present depressed market. Figures are given showing that during the past twelve years nearly 900,000 tons of foreign slates, of the aggregate value of close upon three and a half million sterling, have been thrown upon the British market. This makes an atmual average of nearly 75,000 tons, and pf nearly £300,000 in value. The "Genedl" then undertakes to contro- vert two popular fallacies, the first that the introduction of these enormous quantities of foreign slate can be traced to the Penrhyn Quarry strike and secondly, that the present depression in the home market is due to the damping of the foreign material. 'Under the first of these heads it is pointed out that a large, and for years an increasing tradto was being done in foreign slates before the Penrhyn strike began. The period covered by the strike was 1901-2-3. But in the year 1899 no less than 87,000 tons of foreign slate, valued at £338,000, were put on the English market. In 1901 and 1902 the figures were considerably lower, and only in 1903 did they exceed those of 1899, reaching then the huge total of 119,800 tons of the value of £467,000. It is further shown that the foreigner cannot be held responsible for the depressed state of the British market. For while in 1903 the im- ports reached the enormous figures shown in the last paragraph, thev fell in 1907 to a total of 37,500 tons of the value of £ 131,000." That is to say the imports last year were less than 30 per cent. of what they were four years pre- viously. Great as has been the falling off in the home markets, it has not been one-half as great as the falling off in foreign importations of slates.

LLANELLY COUNTY COURT. Widow's Insurance Claims. At the Llanelly County Court on Monday, before his Honour Judge Bishop, Jane Rees, Caedolau-row, Burry Port, sued the Wesleyan and General Assurance Company for JE20 10s in respect of money due under a policy on her late husband's life. Mr J. Lewis Phillips re- presented the plaintiff and Mr T. R. Ludford defended. The case was partly heaM at the last court, when Mrs Rees denied having re- ceived a lapsed notice. Cyril Rowe, Moseley, Birmingham, said that on October 11th, 1907, a lapsed notice was addressed to W. and J. Rees, care of William Rees, Caedolau, Burry Port, Llanelly. His Honour (perusing one of the company's books); I cannot understand how this book is kept. I haven't seen such a book before in my life. Three witnesses were called to say that Mrs Rees had shown them the lapsed notice.— His Honour gave judgment for the defendant company. In another case Mrs Jane Rees sued the Universal Insurance Loan and Investment Co., Ikeds, for £7 4s under a policy on her hus- band's life. The evidence was heard ILt the last court, at which it transpired that the for feiture notice had been sent to Mrs Rees in- stead of Mr Rees, who was alive at the time.— His Honour said that on the technical point raised, judgment would be given for the plain- tiff in this case. Dispute over Father's Will. David Griffiths, engineer, Burry View, Burry Port,proceeded against Walter Griffiths, Graig- capil, W. Griffiths, Burrows-cottage, J. Griffiths, Mount Pleasant, D. Griffiths, Gwe- cwm-road,, Burry Port, and John Griffiths, Half-way, under the will of his father.—Mr Lleufer Thomas represented the plaintiff, and Mr T. R. Ludford appeared for the respon- dents.—Mr Lleufer Thomas explained that the parties were six brothers. By-the will of their father two cottages and a piece of land at Burry Port was divided amongst them. The late David Griffiths, senr., devised the Rock and Fountain Cottage to Walter Griffiths ab- solutely, and he devised to his (Mr Thomas's) client Rock Cottage absolutely. He also de- vised the freehold land on Graigcapil. In the first instance he gave two portions amounting to onejfifth apiece to Walter and David Griffiths. As to the remaining three-fifths it "\ta4 to be divided between the other four sons in equal shares as tenants in common. The point in dispute was as to the pathway to Rock Cottage and the extent of the garden.— Plaintiff having given evidence, hisllcmour said that it was merely a question of a path- way to a house, and, seeing that they were brothers, it should be conceded at once. Mr Thomas What we are mainly concerned about is the right of way over the pathway. We are willing to forego our claim to other land if a settlement is arrived at now. The case was then adjourned until to-day, the patties having a consultation at the close of the court.

SON'S SUDDEN FRENZY. A PENYGRAIG SENSATION. An amazing .story was told at the Ystrad Rhondda Police Court on Monday of a son's alleged savage attack xipon his father on Satur- day night. The defendant was Daniel Jenkins, collier, of Swan-street, Penygraig, who was charged with stabbing his-father, Rees Jenkins, with a penknife and with attempting to comm t suicide. It appeared that prisoner had been depressed of late after an illness, and, contrary to the doctor's orders, he went drinking on the day in question. Returning home late he, without any provocation, attacked his father on the stair landing, and after attempting to strike him stabbed him in the chest. James Rogers, an eyewitness of the affair, said he shouted out, He has got a knife in his hand," and then he wrenched it out of pri- soner's hand. Soon afterwards prisoner was dis- covered on a conch downstairs, nearly choking, with a handkerchief tied tightly round his neck by a man named Westock, who, failing to loosen the handkerchief, cut it away with his knife. I cut Jenkins's throat a little bit in doing it," added Westock, "but I couldn't help it,"—The Chairman (MrT. P. Jenkins);, That's all right. Prosecutor, replying to the Bench, said he was unable to account for his son's conduct, other than that he was strange when he took drink. When arrested, prisoner, in reply to the charge, said I remember nothing about it. I was in a weak state." Upon his brother undertaking to look after him, prisoner was remanded for a week, in order that the police might see how he behaved himself in the meantime.

SUBTLETY OF LEAD PURCHASE At Hereford on Monday Peter O'Hare, (dealer in old metal, was fined 50s and half the prosecuting solicitor's fee for purchasing 121bs. 4ozs. of lead, being less than the quantity required ,by law, to wit, 1121bs. weight, on August 1st. The defence was that a little boy brought the scraps of lead, saying they were sent by his father, whom defendant had occa- sionally employed as painter and plumber. Defendant gave him lOd for the lead. > The Bench ascertained that there was a charge hanging over the boy of stealing the scraps when begging shavings at a builder's yard, though it had nothing to do with this prose- cution. A previous summons against d efendant had been dismissed because he proved that he bought a manufactured article. The charge of theft against the boy was further adjourned so that the builder might be subpoenaed.

CARDIFF MAN IN TROUBLE. Walter L. Roberts, a young Cardiffian, was charged on Monday at Bristol with stealing a directory fropi the Central Library, also with being a deserter from the 16th Lancers.

Tariff Reformer & I. L. P. RIVAL MEETINGS AT PORT TALBOT. Remarkable Scenes. A Conservative van arrived at Port Talbot on Saturday, and was stationed in the squai e near Bethany Chapel, where all suah out-door meetings are held, and where the Independent Labour Party assemble every Saturday night. Early in the evening a large crowd began to gather around the van from which Mr F. E. Cable was announced to speak on Tariff Reform. The Independent Labour Party also as- sembled in the square, and announced that they were going to hold a meeting. They claimed the right to the first hearing. Mr Cable, however, stated that he had been in the square first, and was going to hold the fort," and he thereupon opened his address from the van. The Labour party, led by Mr Harry Davies, Cwmavon, retaliated by opening their meeting alongside, within ten yards of the van. For a time the two orators vied with each other in shouting loudest, and in this the Tariff Reformer scored, for he seemed possessed of the more powerful voice. For a time 1\11' Cable was allowed to advocate Tariff Reform. Then the Labour party burst into song with Keep the red flag flying." The crowd had interrupted Mr Cable several times, but now they broke out and followed the Labour song with "Sospan Fach" and several other ditties, yelling and shouting and booing. Time after time the speaker tried to get a hearing, but in vain. Meanwhile the Labour party stopped theirmeeting, and about a dozen of the Labour workers surrounded Mr Cable's meeting offering him the Labour Leader." The majority of the interruptors were irre- sponsible youths, and for a time pandemonium reigned supreme. Then came a lull, and Mr Cable called for questions and fair play to answer them. He had just commenced to reply to one question when the crowd broke out again, and it was impossible for him to proceed. Whilst waiting for silence someone threw a tomato at the speaker. This naturally annoyed Mr Cable, a.nd he described the action as blackguardly and cowardly," and chal- lenged the man who threw it to come up to the van. The crowd also deprecate the action, and sympathise 1 with Mr Cable. The grama- phone was brought into action, but it was impossible to proceed, and Mr Cable closed this meeting. Then Mr Harry Davies once more started the I.L.P. meeting, without, however, any repetition of the previous scenes.

PONTYPOOL HOSPITAL. Satisfactory Financial Position. The half-yearly meeting of the governors of the Pontypool and District Hospital was held at the Town Hall, Pontypool, on Monday evening, Mr A. A.

Amongst the items of expenditure were :— salaries and wages, JE237 7s 3d repairs and additions, £12 17s Id special nursing charges, £ 2413s 2d. The report of the Executive Board showed that the average number at the Hospital last year was 22, as compared with 24 for the half- year just ended, while the cost per-head showed a slight, reduction. Excellent results had accrued from the hospital ball, organised by the ladies of the district, JE111 being realised thereby, and also from an effort of Mr David Jones, J.P., Belle Vue, Pontnewynydd, by which JE30 5s 2d was realised. The report also called attention to the need of additional accommodation for patients and staff. Mr Benjamin Nicholas, in moving the adop- tion of the report, emphasised the need of establishing a HospitalSunday inthechurches of the district. Mr John Walters seconded the motion, and the report was adopted. On the motion of Mr T. Morgan and Father Degan it was resolved to call upon the churches of the district to hold a Hospital Sunday. The Matron (Miss Ritchie) submitted her report. There had been 150 admissions during the half-year, as compared with 116 for the corresponding period last year 100 opera- tions had been performed, the majority being of a very serious character. The matron's report, as well as the balance sheet, was adopted, and votes of thanks were accorded to the nursing and medical staff of the Hospital.

RICK FIRES. Sully and Whitchurch Outbreaks. A rick of hay on Greenhill Farm, in the occupation of Mrs Lucy Hill, Whitchurch, caught fire on Saturday night. The outbreak was noticed by a mart named Charles Tovey, who lives close by, and he raised an alarm. The Whitchurch Volunteer Fire Brigade arrived at the scene, but the fire had obtained such a hold that the entire rick, weighing about^.15 tons, was destroyed. It is believed the fire was due to spontaneous combustion. On Saturday, a large hayrick belonging to Mr W. Thamas, J.P., of the Hayes Farm, Sully, became overheated and caught fire. The Cadoxton Fire Brigade weie summoned, and were soon on the scene and extinguished the flames, but not before considerable damage had been done. The same rick caught fire a few days ago.

BEDROOM BLAZE AT TON PENTRE. On Monday night a fire occurred at a cottage in Augusta-street, Ton Pentre, in the occupa- tion of Mr W. H. Collins. Considerable alarm was created in the neighbourhood.

Police-Inspector Edwards and several constables hurried to the spot after rinsring up the fire brigade, And with the ready aid of the neighbours, who procured a plentiful supply of water, the outbreak was subdued before the brigade arrived, although they were promptly on the spot.

Trouble On a Destroyer, CREW MUTINOUS. t e-: Gunsights and Signal-books Thrown, Overboard. The Pall Mall Gazette's Naval corre*" pondent on Monday writes :-An unpleasant incident, which is likelv to result in severa Courts-Martial, occurred during the recent manoeuvres. Whilst at Ganton, on the Firth of Forth, serious trouble arose aboard a destroyer. Her crew grew dissatisfied for various reasons, one being that for a month they had to sul sist on bare navy rations, nothing being procurable from shore. The discontent assumed a serious phase, cunsights and signal books being thrown over- board. As a result, the destroyer was placed under arrest. When the fleet put to sea she was ordered to take station astern of the cruiser Topaze, and a torpedo boat was sta- t o led on either side of her. Upon the flotilla's arrival off the Orkneys an inquiry was held, as the result of which several of the destroyer's crew were made prisoners, and taken aboard another ship. It is understood that some of the men will be tried by Court Martial when the flotilla returns to port, but no further news of the incident has been made known since the arrests. Some years ago several cases of throwing gunsights overboard occurred in the Channel Fleet, but such happenings as this are fortu- nately very rare in the British Navy. It was stated upon inquiry at the Ad- miralty on Monday that no information had been received there of the incident above re- ferred to.

Forecastle Blaze. SEAMAN BURNT TO DEATH, Early on Sunday morning a serious fire, at" tended by fatal consequences, broke out OIL the Norwegian steamer Ala, of Christiania,) yiag at the ballast wharf on the west side of the Bute East Dock, Cardiff. The fire was disr covered at 1.50 a.m. by the ship's watchmai who while on his round noticed sonw smoke issuing from the forecastle. He immedi- s ately aroused the sailors and firemen occupying the forecastle bunks, and gave an alarm to Dock-constable Keefe (22), who was passing the ship at the time. The Cardiff Railway Company's fire brigade, under the command of Captain Rosser, was quickly on the scene, and with a good supply of water from two hydrants they soon got the fire under and succeeded in finally extinguishing it at 3.30. When the Bute brigade began operations they were under the impression that all the occupants of the fores castle had escaped, but some time after the outbreak, and when the forecastle was a raging furnace, one of the crew informed them, that the donkeyman, named Erling Rusletvet, was missing, and at 3.15 his dead, naked body was discovered by Sergt. May lying facedownwards just inside the door of his bunk. He had been terribly burnt, and his disfigured features rendered identification almost impossible. A small cut on the forehead and the fact that the unfortunate seaman was found lying with his head just inside facing the door, seem to indicate that he must have made a 'desperate effort to fight his way through smoke and flame, and that while staggering along he struck his head against a water tank. The young fellow was only 19 years of age. The forecastle was com- pletely gutted, and the deck hands have lost practically all the property they had on board- The other portions of the vessel were un- affected by the fire. The origin of the fire is not definitely known, but it seems to have broken out in the sailors' quarters, and is thought to have been caused by the explosion of an oil lamp.

RUN DOWN BY TRAWLER. At Lowestoft on Saturday an inquest was held on Joseph Henry Wamea, whose body was recovered from the wreck of the smack Chanti- cleer.
