BRISTOL t. PENARTH. Iodl ng hack at the histttTy of the Bristofen Club, one is almost tempted to s^y th-atfew have had such periods of upsand do was, triumps and defeats. At oli0 time, tnany,,yedl,& ago, they could beat the best team from the C udili district; bat after that they fell off to such an ?nt that Penarth could cross their line ah unes, whilst Newport or Cardiff could beat them ilmost pointless- Then came a period of awakening and resuscitai on. Several new, but experienced players were drawn into the Citizens' fold, and the club advar iced again into almost the front rank of Engby' football- In their initial match with Cardiff, this season; however, they "showed extremely poor form. Cardiff securing- three goals and six tries—nine times over the Bristol line. This overwhelming defeat must have taught the Bristolians a lesson, for after that defeat, they made rapid progress. Perhaps the best thing they did was to travel down to Plymouth and beat them by practi- cally the same score as Cardiff did, that is, they crossed the Albion hne once, This form, of course, on paper, brought them oncc more to the front, but this proved unreliable, for theCttrdirIians aganbeat them r at the return mad, on the Bristol giound, by one goal and one try to nil, Looking, therefore, at all 4hese facts, and knowing the general nncertamty that surrounds football, itwOujd have been very difficult to predict before the match on Saturday what Penarth would do with the representatives of the Ancient <~?ity. It turr out, however, that the meeting was a most favr for Bristol. They were at their tip- to' rnl, and with good fortune behind them, they ..oceeded after a haid and fluctuating fight, in iriflic ing a defeat on their visit,ore. the Penarthians. It the game bad baen ad v tie resnlt, Ülep,J,wonlct<" have represented the' t o state of affairs. On the whole it was a iairiy é¡\1g fight, and the home- terh clea'-ly gave » = ,tlut they have iiade a stride in ¡t \1") of improvement. They are cer- tainly to be co/igratulatad on ^heir, scrimmage;s. They are uDquetionably,clever"l'. many of forward work- I hey are bip' neavj merv; and on Saturday, they \Vheeled'th/i scrums time after "time* in a manner that left acting to be desired. Bowley, the ol-d Newportoman, has evidently taught them a wrinkle or two. He and Hayle put in some splendid w"' v; and it was Bowley, who, at the last moments the game, got over with a try, which, however, would never have been scored, had the Penarth three- quarters been more or the alert. The Penarth for- wards gave only a indifferent display in tbe first half, but they plied up splendidly in the second. Ill" the initial portion of the game there was no sting whatever in their attack, but the manner in which they fought clearly showed what they could do. The [Penarth half-back did failly well on the whole. Shepheid played capitally, and bad hard lines in not scoring. He made a fire but at the critical moment he hesitated, and a irtain try was lost. Alexander, too, played a fhfJ ga-ne. He got clean away on:e, and certainly appeared a scorer, but had ill-luck against him. Hevby Morgan, Heywcod, and Stamp were not in their usual form. The Bristolians losalot of groand by loose work in the way of passing. This is a feature they may avoid in coming matches, and if they only do, they will have to be seriously reckoned with by the very best of teams, Indeed it is a matter for supreme wonder that a big place like Bristol has been, in matters of football, BO very backward in coming fbrward. ITo-morrow (Saturday. j-PenartK meet Swansea, and if the'weather was anythi^Ji^e,, a grand; m^tch may ke: expected. The: AH Whites, proud of their con- questtof Newport, will p,lay; u i.desp^ately for. a win, and Penarth, on the other had, who have dravfn with the, victors of Swansea, will probably, again demon- stfate.: the little happj lqJ.g-k ",J;hêý. have'.oj. ^.iiearly always rising to occasion^; f i' ,0 ,>

The Penarrh eight satisfied themselves with just managing to hold up tbeii- opponents, and the backa reported to kicking in a judicious manner, with the result that they drove their opponents down the field. Dewar sent the ball out as scon as they were in close proximity to the line, and a round of Excellent passing resulted r in Angove crossiug at the corner. The kick at goal failed. From the exchange kicking that followed the restart a Penarth back made his mark. The Ball Wc'S placed for Kirby, a shot from the half-way only just missing the uprights. In the subsequent play the Bristolianssent the ball ont of the scrum, and although, there was a dead wind against them, sought to make the game as interesting as possible.

L ..t, my measure sti'I fcTKaten, perhaps to treat. You have shown the hopelessness of tbe ;position. Tell me now what you propose." Welcome sounds After all the difficulties he had encountered, Kleckser begun to see. a ray of hope. I propose to you both >s«rVrv ;i rid reward," he ^hastened to declare. "Give us the information we require; and we will seek nothing more. We will not even ask you to join in the exposure of Parlandet." And that informa.tion',ig¿what ?", Intelligence of what has-happetied to White, and in- structions how we may recover him, first. The details of the plot, or scheme, or project, whatever you like to call it, formpd by Parlandet—second." Good returned Poi7 ng And the price—how much?" "We are willing to be liberal—say, a hundred pounds!" Poing shook his head. "That is not rating your friend highly," he observed. If he is worth any- .1 thing, his value must be more than that. The price must at least be doubled. That is imperative. Now for my own safety. How did you find out where I lived? Be frank, I warn you, or at whatever risk I will have my revenge." ,<>' He touched with a «lgnificant gesture the place Whither Kleckser had noticed him return his pistol. "1 Lave been frank and open throughout," replied the German, and Jt shall deaj fairly, with you to the end. I discovered your abode through Tronchet." The Frenchman had surveyed so coolly the pre- cautions of M. Jules to secure Kleckser's safety, and had preserved throughout the interview a tone of such entire unconcern, that it was startling to observe the sudden terror borne in tqhis face at the detective's name. "Tronchet!" repeated Poing. He too in the plot! Then things are serious. Those are his men, then ?" he enquired, again stealing a glance through the window. "Those are Tronchet's men," returned Kleckser. "Tronchet himself tried to dissuade me from coming here, but finding I was determined, gave me this." He laid upon the table the. revolver with whicn he had been furnished, and quietly resumd his seat. Poing looked upon him with a kind of admira- tion. V. You are a brave cock to crow so. boldly," r he said. "You, knew, then the danger that you 'ran." >• It was the only way that I knew of to save my friend," replied Kleckser, Well, I will help you," said Poing, after. a pause. I am disgusted now, I have been disgusted long, with that miserable Nap, and I would rather aid a brave man than a coward. It is weak, foolish, a pre- judice, Iknow;stillitismycreed. Nothingsovfretched as a coward! When he is a fool into the bargain, the affair is worse. Parlandet, is both fool and coward, and he has failed in his design. Down with Mm! Va! imbo,-ile (Get, along! idiot! j He a'^Tis- tered a contemptuous kick to an imaginary and continued. I wjll.^ssist you; only, however, upon these terms. Two hjtusdred pounds paid down, upon this table here, before I speak a word. Your parple of honour-I can trust you; a brave man is not a Parlandet—.your parole of honour, 1.03 to draw- off ail your mea, Trpnchet's included, jor twenty-four hours, and to leave me unwatched. Lastly, your promise to take no,steps towards the recovery, of jour jriend for that same time." "I promise all," said Kleckser. "But now," he continued, hesitatingly, "how—can we—for our parts-be sure you do not play us, false ?I, Poing shrugged his shoulders. "That is your affair," he retorted. I shall tell y^u what happened to this White, where he now is, how to regain him. I shall tell you all I know of Parlandet's gr"(K2 scheme. And all I tell you will be true. You ,ust I trust to me for that. But you must pay the money first, and run the risk of failure yourself." Kleckser reflected. He had succeeded better tb, lie had dared to hope. He had no choice but to aly upon his convict's sense of honour, and upon his expressed disgust for Pari. A slender thread—a terrible risk—but the thread was all upon which be j, had to depend, and the rigk must be run. He turned fco Poing. Well, I consent," he'said. « Poing stretched forth his hand with a grin. "The terms, the terms, my brave, before I unclose my lips. I had never thought my words could be e precious. Every one of them will be worth a piece of gold." Kleckser had come provided for this emergency. The remainder of his own savings and a sum he had obtained from Mrs. White jqst" covered Poing's de- mand. He laid the notes upon the table. Poing counted then carefully, placed them in his pocket, and laughed exultingly. "Never fear he replied to Kleekser's start, "I am a man of my word. What I promise I perform. Now, open all your ears and listen." Just as the stipulated heur expired, Kleckser came out of the doorway of the Traces of tears were visible on his features. He had evidently been strongly moved. M. Jules and his comrade rushed up to shake him by the hand, and cloilgratu- lated him upon his safety. You have succeeded, I trust, monsieur ?" inquired Jules. It Beyond my hopes," said Kleckser. Come with me now, both you and your comrade, I must N* M. Itonchet at once." (To be eontimwL) chap 37
