Soy Shockingly llltreated at Treorky. HIS STEP-MOTHER SENT TO GAOL. ( At the Ystrad Police Court on Monday last, before their Worships the Stipendiary (Mr J. Ignatius Williams), Aldernoaji Richard Lewis, Alderman W. Morgan, and Councillor D. W. Davies—John Morgan and Margaret, his wife, who reside at Highland Terrace, Treorky. were summoned at the instance of the National Scciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to children, for neglecting and ill-treating their son, James John Morgan, eleven years of age. Mr James Spickett, solil(-itor, Pontypridd, de- fended. In opening the case, Mr Spickett ex- plained that the boy James John Morgan was the step-sen cf the female defendant and the sou of the male defen-lant by a former wife. The boy John James Morgan, when called, said he remembered playing marbles in the street a month ago on a Saturday evening. His step-mother called him in, and ordered him to go upstairs. She had a toasting fork in her hand, and beat him with it whilst lie wa-z going upstairs. She also kicked him on the legs as well, until there were marks on his 'legs. On another occasion, a fortnight after this, she fetched him from near the Canton House, Treorky, On getting into the house, he was asked to strip, and she struck I liin in the face twice with her fist, and his father put him across his knees and beat him I with a j'!rl.rp. After this his step-mother pushed him upstair. A man named David 'Evans, who was in the house at the time,asked his father not to beat him. His mother re- plied, "Not beat him indeed." On the Satur- day before Inspector Ruff, of the N.S.P.C.C.. m- me to investigate the case, his mother had stripped him and had beaten him with the toasting fork b2,eaus2, he had accepted a trousers from a neighbour named Mrs Griffiths, who had taken pity on him owing to his ragged condition. The day before the inspector came there he had dinner with Mrs Griffiths. When he went home his mother again ordered him to strip and go to bed. She brought the toasting fork upstairs and beat him on the legs, head, and arms, holding his head whilst doing so, because ho had had dinner with Mrs Griffiths. H often had focd with Mrs Griffiths. and a neighbour named Mrs Jones, bccause he didn't have food with his mother. Many Sundays h, wa^s kept in bed all day without food. He liked to go to school, but could not do so be- cause his clothes were so raggedvand dirty. For the defence, it was stated that the father had beaten him with the strap on one occasion only because he had stolen some money from the house, and Lad hidden it in the hack yard; lie had also been beaten because he absented himself from school, and went about neighbours' houses to have focd for pick- ing coal. Dr Howard Davies, Pontypridd, gave evi- dence as to examining the boy on the 2nd of March. He found on his body on the front aspect of the right leg a contused wound.which he described as a linear mark, one on the knee and two on the shin. On the back of the leg eight linear marks and bruises. On the front aspect of the left leg there were five linear marks, on and about the knee. On the side and back part there were 19 linear marks from the buttocks down, some two inches and others 2 inches in length. All the marks were dis- tinct and well-defined. There were also found two contusions on the left side of the head. A!i the marks were of recent infliction. The skin showed numerous marks of flea bites all over the body, and the boy's head was in a dirty state. In all there were 38 separate and distinct bruises. If a cane had been used to inflict them there must have been very great violence used indeed, greater violence than a woman, in his opinion, was capable of inflict- ing. Some of the marks could have been in. flicted with a cane. He saw the boys on the previous Friday. The effccts of the bruises had not passed then.. Dr Michael Breene, Treorky, said that while he was on his rounds on thi 1st of March, he was called into the house by Mrs Jones to ex- amine the boy. He was stripped and he saw some marks on his legs. He could not say how they were caused, but they could not be caused by the halt-penny cane produced in Court. Inspector Ruff, of the N.S.P.U.C., said he called to sea the boy on the 5th inst. After finding the state he was in, he had him stripped He was in a filthy condition, his clothing being practically nothing but dirty rags. He now produced the clothes, ana showed them to the Bencli. He called upon the parents and asked them why they had beaten the boy. They ad. mitted having beaten him, but gave no reason except that he bul stolen some money. There wa" an excited crowd in the trout of the house. He obtained some clothing for the boy, and took him to Pontypridd to his own house, which was registered under the Act. He washed him and put clean clothes on him, and then conveyed him down to Dr Howard Da. vies. Ex-Councillor Morris and the defendant called at his house at Pontypridd requesting him to give the child back. The defendant also offered him a drink not to press the charge Police Constable Davies, Treorky, said he had called at the defendant's house to see the loy. The step-mother told him the child de- served the beahng lie had. He was in a very ragged and dirty condition. Corroborative evidence was given by P.S. Lewis, Treorky; Mrs Jane Davies, and Mrs Jane Griffiths, neighbours, residing near de- fendant's. Mr John Williams, assistant master at the T' cork} Schools, said the boy was intelligent, but had been very much neglected. Mrs Sinister, a widow living in apartments with the defendants, said Mrs Morgans had no toasting fork. but had borrowed hers on differ- ent occasions. In summing up. the Stipendiary stated that the father had undoubtedly neglected the boy in a most culpable manner in allowing the child to be starved and improperly clothed. He would be fined a £1. and also have to pay a portion of the costs. As regards the step- mother, she had behaved in a most cruel way towards the little boy. The child was not hers, and they believed Hut she had thi-ashed it in a most unnatural way with a toasting fork as the evidence showed. There were two sets of maiks on the hoy's body, cne set con- sisting of 33 marks. Punishment of this kind ought not- to I)-1 inflicted under any eircum- staiwes whatever. They believed she had done so simply because she disliked the child. The Stipendiary further observed that both defen- dants had previously been fined 405 and costs on a previous occasion at that Court for a similar offence. At that time it was proved ttat a (oau.ing fork and a wire had been used in heating their female child. They would now order the female defendant to be impri- soned for two months with hard labour.

Shop Assistants Social Tea at Ferndale. The shop assistants of Ferndale connected with the National Union of Shop Assistants held their second social tea and grand concert en Thursday at the Assembly Hall. The tea and concert was as hitherto a grand success. About 300 shop assistants and friends sat down to partake of the various delicacies that had been admirably prepared by Mr Joshua Elias, confectioner, Ferndale. The meeting was pre- sided over by the Rev Charles Evans, A.K.C., who, in his usual entertaining and pleasant manner, kept the audience in a very happy mood. In his introductory remarks, the rev. gentleman spoke of the many grievances the shop assistants had to contend with, and eluci- dated his remarks by numerous examples of shop life that had come under his notice in London and other large towns. He was glad, however, to find that the shop assistants of Ferndale were to the front, as it were, in the matter of organisation, as was amply testified b/ the various meetings they held in the town from time to time. This. he thought, was the only way they could secure'their just and law. fu! rights. He also very strongly appealed for the sympathy of the public in their behalf by shopping early. What chance had any young person to improve himself both mentally or physically, when obliged to work late hours, often on Saturdays to a late hour on Sunday morning. This, he urged, lay to a great ex- tent in the hands of those who made it a. prac- tice to do their shopping late. Let them in future, however, consider the poor shop assist- ant and give them a chance to enjoy the same privileges as themselves. Mr T. Harries, Ferndale. also spoke, and supported the remarks made by Mr Evans, and likewise Mr Jones, Porth, The following items were gone through, and were all very well received by the vast audi- ence:—Overture, Mr W. J. Davies, Ferndale; song, "Mona," Mr J. Emlyn Blessett, Moun- tain Ash; recitation, "Christmas Day in the Workhouse." Mr G. Thomas, Cardiff; song, "The Old Grey Mare," Miss E. M. Davies, Ferndale; song, "When the leaves begin to turn." Miss Maggie Mills. Pontypridd. This was the nrst appearance of this young lady on a platform in Ferndale, but her singing in every respect gave the utmost satisfaction. Each item she sang was received with ap- pleuse, and made her the favourite with the audience. Love letter competition, winner, M* Tom Price. Co-operative Stores, which the adjudicator remarked wis a very keen com- petition. Violin solo, very artistically ren- dered by Mr W. Davies. Ferndale; song, "The Soldier's Song," Mr D. R. Griffiths, Aberdare; recitation, "The Oration of Marcus," Mr E. Jones (Public Benefit), Ferndale; impromptu speech competition, "The New Woman," won b,; Mr Tom Jones; recitation, ''The Charge f the Light Brigade," Mr William Thomas, Co-operative Stores. A very laughable farce. concluded the meeting, performed by the mem- bers of the branch, entitled, "Wives by Ad- vertisement." This was a very enjoyable part of the performance. A vote of thanks to the chairman was proposed by Mr E. Jones, Ferndale, and seconded by Mr W. Higgms. Porth, who remarked they ought to be proud of the rev. gentleman tor championing their cause so well in Ferndale. The accompanist for the evening was Fomdale's favourite pian- ist, Mr W. J. Davies.

Fmndly Society Dinner at Porth. Oia Saturday evening last, the members, numbering about 100, of the Bristol and West o1: England Society, held their annual dinner a the New York Hotel, Porth, The company s tt down to a capital spread prepared by the Hostess, Mrs Davies, after which a meeting was held. the principal speakers being Mr John Fox, Mr Herbert Maddy, the chairman, M- John Edwards^and Mr Collins. Mr Fox, who is the gencrai secretary of the Society, came down from Bristol at the bidding of the Ivew York Branch, wivo, in the course of his address, said it was a pleasure, and it be- hoved him, to respond to their kind invitation. He would beg to call the attention of some of those present to the splendid facilities and well being of joining this society. He would net trespass upon the time of the audience, as he understood it wouid be given up to har- mony, and would only just quote a few figures t. shew the unparalleled strides the Bristol and West of England Society had made. In the year 1890, their total income from every branch was M,OlS, whilst in 1895 their re- venue came to £ 10,232, and latterly, in the yr-ar 1898, they had fairly eclipsed all by re- ceiving the sum of £ 19,873. These figures will shew that in the course of eight years the in- crease of the income was over four times. Tht society had been extremely considerate to all the members who were implicated in the re- cent unfortuiiate strike. T-lil had allowed each one four months' contribution; and more, had contributed handsomely for the mainten- ance of the wives and children. (Loud ap- plause), Out of all the persons on strike na ler- thain 6,000 belonged to this affiliated order. and the sum of zC3,513 was required to meet their claims as contribution. He pointed cut; an important item, which was essential to all concerned in the welfare of their society to consider, viz., the Old Age Pension. Mr Fox stated that opportunities were given to every member to provide against old age in the shape of paying a small sum equivalent to age to their central fund, and when the person roached a certain age he would be entitled to a pension. He complimented the Porth Lodge's officials for their economy, and sincerely hoped that their efforts in the future would be crowned with success. Speaking for othei districts.he stated thart one lodge in Mardyhas initiated 60 new members in one month, whilst the Mountain Ash Lodge had received 83, thus proving that the principles were for the pub- lic good,and that it was founded upon firm basis Then Mr Gwilym James sang "The Y-. ung Brigade," and Mr George Green "Fair Pretty Mary." Addresses were given by Mr James Bowdep, the secretary of the Lodge, and Mr Collier. Other songs followed, the evening terminating by smgmg the National Antliom. The evening was a most enoyable one.

Porth-Thursday. Before Mr Stipendiary Ignaiiua Williams, Dr Parry, and Dr Ivor Lewis. TV.R. TRAIN IN SANGER. An eight year old boy najaed David Rees, of Pontygwaith, was charged with placing a wheelbarrow on the metals of the T.V.R. line near the new Tylorstow^ Bridge on the 14th inst. A Tylorstowa man named Arthur Brooks, said that his wife drew his attention to the barrow, which, was on the up-line; the wheel was between the metals and the handles across the railway, as if an attempt had been made to draw it away As the train was just about turning the Wattstown corner he im- mediately removed the barrow, and thereby averted whali must have otherwise terminated in a disaster. His wife had seen a little boy running away from the spot. P.C. Hadridge stated that he arrested the little boy on Wed- nesday evening. When he was charged at the police station the boy replied, "I put the bar- row there, and there was no one elsa with me." John Davies, a little boy about the same age as prisoner, said that he saw David Rees wheel the barrow on th line, and when he saw a man in navvies' clothes ho ran away. The Bench ordered prisoner to receive six strokes with a birch rod, and in the event of him coming be- for- them again on a similar charge, he would bi sent to a reformatory school until he was sixteen years of age NO SYMPATHY FROM THE BENCH. Ann Gaffien. a shabbily dressed middle-aged woman of no abode, was charged with stealing a purse containing L2 from John Wilde, who lives at Pcnybryn House, Quakers' Yard, on th2 previous day. Fxosecutor stated that while he was in the vaults of the New Inn Poutypridd on the day in question, prisoner came on to him and asked him to buy a pair of boot-Iaccs from her. He refused, but gave her a penny to have a glass of beer with. She followed him to the Queen's Hotel, where at her request he stood her a glass of whiskey. Whilst there he felt her hand in his pocket. and he missed his purse containing two pounds. He asked her for the money back, and fol- lowed her to the Royal Oak Hotel, but she re- fused to return it. Replying to the Bench, prisoner said he gave information to the police at Norton Bridge Police Station about two hours after the money was missed. Stipendiary: Why didn't you detain her and send for the police? It. is impossible to say now whether she had money or not. We can't depend upon the evidence of a stupid fellow like you. Prisoner (interrupting): We had been to twenty public houses together drinking that day. He gave me a sovereign to pay for drinks, and I being drunk, refused to give him the change. He was flashing his money about ail day. P.C. Nichols arrested prisoner at Norton Bridge, and charged her with the theft. She replied, "I haven't seen any sovereigns.' She was taken to the police station, and searched by the constable's wife. Concealed about her person was found sums amounting to twenty- two illin.gs. Prisoner then admitted that she met prosecutor at the New Inn, and had asked him to buy a pair of laces. He replied, "I'll buy you.' He gave me a sixpenny piece, and was flashing his money about all day. He afterwards gave me a sovereign, and I paid for a gallon of beer. The money found on prisoner was ordered to be returned to prosecutor, the Stipendiary remarking that the Bench had no sympathy with prosecutor at all. Prisoner was ordered to pay a fine of £ 2, *with the alternative of a month's imprisonment with hard labour. DISTURBING A RELIGIOUS SERVICE AT TREALAW. Mark Johnson, Henry Jacobs. Thomas Dovey, Prank Liversuch, George Goldstone, William Gough, Stephen iAlzy, and Charle3 Hardy, were summoned for disturbing a re- ligious service held at the Free Gospel Mis- sion Hall. Trealaw. on the evening of the 6th inst. Mr James Phillips, solicitor, Ponty- pridd, and Mr D. W. Jones, Pentre, defended. Evidence was given to the effect that on the night in question the eight defendants walked into the hall and caused a disturbance shortly after the service commenced. Johnson and Jacobs alleged that the property was legally invested in them. and that the present holders had no right to conduct services at all. De- fendants refused to quit, and remained in the hall from 7.30 until 11 o'clock the same night. In consequence of this Inspector Hoyle, Tony- pandy, was sent for, and the building was closed. It appeared that Johnson and Jacobs he. originally been parties in the lease which specified that the structure was to be used only for holding Free Gospel Mission Services. Johnson and Jacobs had, however, parted with their legal rights, and consequently had no further claim in connection with the control of 'its affairs. The Stipendiary stated that defendants had no legal right to prevent the users of the place conducting services there. an I if they had a legal claim, they certainly violated the law by disturbing the services They highly disapproved of settling disputes in that way. Each of the defendants were fined a £1 and costs, amounting to z9,1 13s each.

It was alleged that tha defendants were drunli; and had kicked the door in be- cause ihe,J, wem refused admittance.

John- James Hughes (22), a noted rough character from Gelli, was charged with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting P.C. Wilcox on Saturday night last at Gelli Road, Gedi, The evidence showed that prisoner had; to be ejected out of the Ystrad Hotel by the. landlord through his disorderly behaviour oi,), the night named.
