BANGOR FOOTBALL NOTES. I must really take exception to the remarks made by "En Avant" in your recent issues, Mr Editor. He does not exactly charge the Bangor F.C., with foxing, but gives it as his opinion that they have been foxing, which amounts much to the same thing. I will show you that they were not foxing when they were beaten by the Colts. But first of all, it ia a well-known fact that the Bangor club have a very great antipathy to being beaten under any circumstances, and most of all by a Carnarvon CJub. When the Colts met and defeated the Bangor club, Bangor had not played for almost five weeks previous. The only match arranged for about that time was with Denbigh; that t ad been postponed, and the nr-xt match was with the Colts. Auother militating circumstance .was, that a change had been made in the team, and this wes the first time the team played under the new arrangemnt. I trust, Mr Klditor, that "En Avant will be satis- fied;with this explanation. I » We, in Bangor, are indeed much surprised at the redult of the cup tie played last Saturday, Car- narvon Athletic v. Bangor F.C. I for one did not anticipate a defeat for Bangor, and if the truth were told, I fancy that- the Carnarvonitea are jaft a Mttle bit astonished themselves. However, the game may have to be played over again, as I think Bangor have two very good points to sustain Ithoir protect, namely, calling time 1^ minutes be- fore and the fact thftt tha Carnarvon goal keeper wsa changed during the progress of the I garae, • Did tbe contesting teams actually play three I minutes after the ball was Ret In motion ? This quest,lon-is asked and various answers are made. Some say they played more, some say les?. It will be remembered that the whistle waa blown for a hand," and that the crowd mistaking this for "time" brck^ into the field for the purpose, I suppose, of congratulating the Carnarvon team on their victory. About three minutes were occupied in clearing the field, and it was decided that three minutes cxtr* be allowed for the lost time. The dispute now is, that only 1; minutes were allowed. However that will not be the strongest point in tLe protest; the fact that the goal keepe' W98 ehar.ged will have more weight. This change must h'iV3 been made very quietly, a,, the captain of the Crfrrarvon team was uot aware at the time that .such a chango had been made. Very grave complaints are made against the refeiee I hear from all sides that be favoured Crnnarvoll throughout, stod one gentleman WAS talking to me rather stronglv about the referee having a quiet talk with Dick Newton, during the interval at h.U time. *»* The telegram *eut to Mr Watson (Bangor) was to say the ieaafr oi it, rather curiously wordttl. to say the ieaafr 01 it, rather curiously wordttl. After giving the result of the game, it stated that I Bangor was out played throughout the game." Now tbe last haif of the game completely con- tradicts this statement. The fact is. that all the play was at the Carnarvan citadel ia the lastjhalf, oBlyonceor twice was tho leather ruu up to the Bangor goal. Rather shrewd was'ut it to play 8 backs and 3 forwards. I fancy I know where that advice came from. Ifc smacks somewhat of Lancashire. I am told that Dick Newton's play was superb as was that of J. Williams, aRd that the Carnarvon men generally, played better than the Bangorians. The hardest workers for Bangor, were Willie Lewis, Humphrey Jones, and J. S. Jones. Trinity College will be here on Saturday next to play Bangor, and I thÜ'k the game will -be well worth seeing, as the collegians have a good reputa- tion. It is to be hoped that our centres and right-wing will shew an improvement, and if our ba- ks play as they did last Sa urday, all wiil go irerry as a marriage bell. • Mr Editor, I do not like tho new style of "Foot- ball Notes," adopted by En Avant," and if yon drop him a hint in season it might be well. The new style is not taken to, by us in Bangor, we much prefer the old fashioned way. By the bye. Mr Farrington must hare felt highly flattered, by being .Addressed as the president." It reminds me of the eceue in Macbeth," all Hail thane, all hail king," etc. Do coming events cast their shadows before ?

BANGOR ART NOTES. Mr Parry's picture. Christs' sermon on the mount," created quite a sensation in Bethesda, shewing that an artist has honour in his own country, if a prophet has not. No seusation was made in Bangor, however, proving that we are rather more sophistic *ted than the good people of Bethesda. The canvas measures as nearly as possible 13 feet by 6 feet. This picture is Mr Parry's first attempt at an historical subject, so we cannot expect too much, but there is much room for improvement. I will first name the good points. and then proceed to consider the defects. I like the foreground very much, the rock paint- ing being very good. The drapery is also very well executed, and the crowd in the back- ground is very well done also. This completes the good points. The first disagreeable thing to catch the eye is the tone of the picture. I have noticed the same defect in all Mr Parry's pictures. He employs a green' which is positively annoyinar to a fastidious eye. This green hangs over the picture like thin green muslin, and destroys the effect of the pioture altogether. It would be quite an easy matter to employ a more-congeuial colour. The blue used in painting Christ's mantle does not harmonize with it' eitner, as it is too glaring. The children in the foreground are badly drawn, the beads being ou' of all proportion, while the faces do not convey the idea of life, lacking expression as they do. They are not the faces one would expect to see on young shoulders. Mr Parry also shews a great want of attention to details, anatomy for ill etaice, the muscles of legs and necks being entirely absent. One glaring example is that of a woman's hand. The woman is sitting on a rock with what seems to be a fish on her face, but which on closer examination is found to re- present a hand, not a muscle or knuckle is to be found on it. I think tin hartist as made a mistake in representing James and Peter as old grey- headed men. The hair. no doubt, is well painted, but leopards migmt be well paintedv"and still be out of place in a picture representing Dajjiel^in the lion's den. I shall look for something beffler next time Mr Parry attacks a historical subject, as I think, be has learned much from this one, and I really like his pluck in attacking such a formi- dable subject.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY NEAR I BANGOR. MURDER, AND SUICIDE OF THE MURDERER. The usually quiet vilUge of T-»ly-y-bont, near Bangor, wi-a yesterday horrified by commission therein of a most horrible crime. It appears that some time ago a farmer of the name of Plio3, who occupied a farm called Cae-maen, Aberogwen, tnariied his servant, to whom at the time Price's son was paying his addresses." After the marriage all three lived together till the old man's death, which occurred a short time 320. By the will John Pri' e and his stepmother became j lint pos- sessor of the farm Recently, however, Mrs Price seems to have intimated her intention of marrying again, and tho suppcsitiou ia that, fearful of the farm paesiug into other hands, and prompted also by feelings of jealoury, Price (uttackecjhei rn Wed- nesday afternoon,jictlicting a wound woict," must have proved itumediately fatal, and afterwards cut his own throat. Catherine Price, the victim, was about 50 years old, whiletl e murderer was font years older. On Wednesday afternoon Price hid been drinking at the Gate House Ian, on the above road, neaj Olte Maen, which place, however, be left perfectly sober and apparently in high spirits. It may be mentioned that be had been drinking more cr less heavily for the last four or five days. lie arrived home apparently unintoxieated about half I past two, and must at once have followed Mra Price into the back kitchen and cut her throat from ear to ear. The setvant girl hearing a scream, nw in and saw Price holding his step- mother's head back over the kitchen fonder. Run- ning out she informed one of the farm labourers, and they both returned at onco only to fiad Mrs Price quite dead, and Price lying by her side dyiug from a terrible gash right across his throat. On the floor near Price a r-^or was found covered with blood. L'r Langford Jones, of Bangor, who was driving pai-t at the time, wis called in, but, of course, could do nothing. The crime was of a moR detcrmlnerl character, àhs Price's head being almost severed from her body, whilst the murde/er had inflicted a wouud almost as severenpon himself. There were no indications of a etruggl; saving taken p'ace, and the only other injury on the woman was a slight incision on the left hand, received, no doubt, while endeavouring to ward off tho savage attt-ck of her sou-in-law. Her hair on the left side of her head was rvffled as if tho muidircr h dae zed her there n c rder to. throw t or head back for tne purpose 01 mo e thoroughly curying ont his purpose. The bodies remain at Cae Maen awaiting the inquest, which takes place aa we go to press. Tie kitchen presented n horrible spectacle, being literally flooded with blood.

HOLYWELL. LOCAL JOTTINGS BY "RAMBLER." DEATH OF LORD MCSTYK. Much Borrow is manifested at the death of Lord Mostyn, which took place on Monday last. Theuoble lord has taken a very prominent part in allpublie movements in Flintshire during the present cen- tury, and although during the last few years he has not taken that active part ^hich he was wont to do, yet he has always taken a lively interest in passing events. Lord Mostyn was a pronounced liberal and a strict adherent of the Liberal party, and although he was unable to attend a public meeting of Liberals held at Holywell last year, he forwarded n letter which showed that his interest in the Liberal cause was as ardent as ever. It seems to be more than t. pity that a family who have taken such a proofment part in Liberalism should now be represented Dy one who is as ardent oa the Conservative side as his noble predecessor w,is on the other. It would be very gratifying if such were not the case, and that t e Liberalise: which has been the politics of the family for generations should be adopted by its present representative. Taa LOCAL BOABD BLECTIOX. There does not appear to be very mn, h Interest in the forthcoming election.

Wednesday, and Thurs- day evenings this week the Rev John Evans, of London (late of Eglwys-bach), has conducted revival services at Ebenezer Chapel, each of which iias been crowded to excess. Mr Evans1 has also conducted early morning services, comjiemiag at half-past six, and the attendance at these also has been most gratifying. Mr Evans's fervent Sequence and burning piety have been the ineans of doing much good here, and 13 persons have up to the time of writing publicly joined the church. A very general des'.re is feit that Mr Evans should prolong his stay here till Sunday next, but we are informed that this is impossible, Mr Evans being compelled to return at once to London. Mr Evans ia the very embodiment of poetic fire, both in manner and appearance, and ■even thosa who are unable to understand bis epoech are deeply affected by the winning tender tones of his voice and the Ohristlike persuasive- aess of his accents. He fully acts on the spirit of St. Paul's words: Brethren, we beteech you, in Ohrist's stead, be ye reconciled to God." Mr Evans does, indeed, beseech, and that in so loving and gentle a manner that few can listen to his aopeals without, emotion. May he long be spared to exemplify by word and deed the beauty of holiness and the love of God to men.
