Hudson's 1 Tranmere Rovers 1 --0- Only one Combination match was played 1 on Saturday, that between Hudson's and Tranmere Rovers. The game ended in a draw of one goal each, though Hudson's seemed to have had the best of matters. A sort of ill- luck seems to dog the footsteps of Hudson 3. Those who saw* them play at Rhyl could n',t fail to come to the conclusion that they are a team who should figure higher in the Comb'na- tion table than they do. I expect to see luck changing before the end of the season, and to find Hudson's ere long fast creeping towards the uppermost rung of the ladder. --0- The cause of the paucity of the Combination matches on Saturday was the fact that it was the. appointed day for the fourth round in the oualifvincr competition for the English Cup. Notwithstanding that almost all the clubs com- prising the Combination were candidates for the English pot at the commencement of the competition, two only worked their way into th° fourth round, viz., Chirk and Osw, s >. and alas, now, their places shall know themin more in the tournament for this season. Chirk met Walsall at Walsall, and after a came were beaten by one goal to nil. V\ elhng- ton Town accounted for Oswestry to the tune of four goals to nil. The wisdom of th7 Rhyl director, in drawing from the competition must not b Sbt-ious. Assuming they had had the luck of Chirk to be drawn at home m ^ch ^atch it more than probable that in each > result would be a financial failure, for the r wav fares of the visiting club are in each in- tance the first charge on the gate, afterwards the referee and other expenses, and the net proceeds are equally divided between the two After navin? the fares of twelve mei from" Welshpool' or from Walsall there would b- much?left of a £ 20 gate. I am beginning to think there is some truth m the staten^ attributed by an enterprising ^l^er th^ « there is some business accumulating behind th club this year." -0- Rhvl had kept last Saturday an oP3n date in case they would still be candidates for the English Cup. Oswestry, however, had fixed it for plaving their Combination match with Bangor. But being engaged with ellmjton Town, they had to cry off, and Bangor like Rhyl were without a match. The result was that they arranged to play their League fixture on that day at Rhyl. Bangor are always a draw in Rhvl, and despite a biting and raw east wind which pierced one's marrows, and despite the fact that it was only a League match, there was rather more than an average crowd. ——O""— Bangor were represented by their full team, but Rhyl were short of Vaughan, and his ab. sence necessitated a re-arrangement of the team, which was far from satisfactory. Morgan Owen was on the ground, and was ready to play, but the directors rightly resolved not to disturb arrangements come to at a properly constituted meeting, But for the future his valuable ser- vices have been gladly accepted, and he will figure in the team that is to play against Chirk at Chirk to-day. —o— Plaving with the wind in their favour during the first half, Rhyl had all the play, and penned the Bangorians in their own goal. But the for- wards gave an execrable display of shooting, and aimed anywhere but at the target. What was even worse was the dilly-dallying with the ball in front of goal. They seemed 10 fumble with it, and tried to do fancy tricks. Such in- decision, such idiotic performance I have seldom witnessed in a football match At length Brett found an opening for a pass by Sam Parry, and scored a beautiful goal. But with all their pressing and the advantage of the wind, Rhyl were unable to increase their score, which re- mained at half-time at one goal to nil. -0-- On resuming against the wind, the home team seemed to take matters more seriously, and at once commenced to press. But they were help- less in front of goal. On the other hand, when Bangor did run up they were very dangerous, and seized every opportunity of shooting. Early in the second half they found an opening through a mistake on the part of one of the Rhyl backs, and scored a soft goal. This reverse fairly put Rhyl on their metal, but Bob Roberts was a host in himself, and cleared repeatedly, though in doing so he resorted to some of his usual dirty play, and had there been a smarter referee cn the field he would have been penal- ised more than once. Try all they could Rhyl could not break through the defence. At length after a particularly hot siege the Bangor custod- ian was obliged to force a corner. This was well placed by Mathews, and Hall meeting it in the nick of time banged the ball into the net. --0- Rhyl were now plaving a sterling game until they got within the twelve yards line, when they mulled matters hopelessly. Spencer did some particularly foolish things. He would not pass, and greatly exasperated the crowd by his selfish- ness. During an excited tussle in the goal mouth Bob Roberts deliberately hit the ball oti- with his hands, and the inevitable penalty followed. The free kick was taken by Spencer, whose antics caused considerable diversion. But he safely steered ihe ball into the nr-t, and thereby made victory fairly sure for Rhyl. Shortly afterwards Bangor had a run up, and scored what seemed to me to be an off-side goal. The game finally ended in a victory for Rhyl by three goals to two. -.0-. The game was a very unsatisfactory one. Bangor played anything but a gentlemanly game. They resorted frequently to shady tac- tics. They appeared to take advantage of the weakness of the referee, who, though he tried to be fair, was not sharp enough on the foul play of Bangor. With a stronger referee Bangor would not have presumed to such play. It was" Bob Roberts' opportunity, and he played up to his reputation to the full. Rhyl were by a long chalk the better team. There was more style and finish about their play. Where they failed was in front of goal. Ali their previous efforts were neutralised by selfish play at the crucial moment. The chief offender was Spencer. I am afraid he is becoming incorrigible. The Rhyl directors will have to deal with Spencer with a firm hand if he persists in his stupid fancy tricks. On Saturday he toyed with the ball repeatedly in front of goal, and attempted to do impossible things. Halt on Saturday simply funked. Brett was mediocre, so was Sam Parry. But Will Jones played one of the best games of the season. —-o— "Mathews was rut of his place at half-back, but he did well under the circumstances. Delaney and Brooks played better than I have seen them play yet thi; season. Astburv was also in rare form, but Harry Jones was respon- sible for two or three serious mistakes. Robin- son, as usual, played a fine game in goal, and was not to be blamed for either of the goals scored against him. On the play Rhyl -were three clear goals better than Bangor, but if they do not take better advantage of their opportune ties next Saturday at Bangor than they did last Saturday, I am afraid they must bid a fond farewell to the North Wales Coast Cup. —o—- Rhyl have a tough job on hand to-day, for they have to meet Chirk at Chirk in a Combina- tion fixture. Few clubs emerge from Chirk victorious, and the chances are that Rhyl will suffer their first defeat of the season to-day. At the same time, they have probably the finest team that ever left Rhyl, as the following names will testify:—Goal, Robinson; full-backs, Ast- bury and Harry Jones; half-backs, Brookes, Vaughan (captain), and lielaney; forwards, Mathews, M. Morgan Owen, Brett, Spencer, and Will Jones. If the above-named players will only plav as if they mean to win Rhyl might yet snatch a victory. -0- There is a decidedly interesting match set down for decision at Rhyl to-day, when Rhyl League and Holyhead Swifts meet at Belle Vue Grounds in a Leageu fixture. Holyhead are showing capital form just now, and are at the head of the League table. Recognizing this, the Rhyl directors have selected the following strong team to represent them:—Goal, Glass; full-backs, Vernon Jones and Ike Williams; half-backs, J. O. Jones (Mold), Jim Jenes, and Will Jones; forwards, Hall, T. Roberts, Sam Parry, H. Meredith, and H. Davies. The ad- mission is fourpence, and boys are to be ad- mitted for twopence. The re-appearance of Vernon Jones in the Rhvl eleven to-day will be hailed with much satisfaction and no little interest. Vernon is one of the finest full-backs Rhyl has produced. I await with considerable anxiety his display to-day. I sincerely trust that the hardships and disease which he had to endure in South Africa have in no wise detracted from his fine playing powers. O • RHUDDLAN CASTLE T'XITED v. RHYL HOTSPURS. This friendly match was played at Castle Park. The weather was beautifully fine, and a few supporters of the Hotspurs journeyed with the team. The Rhuddlan te&m was as follows: —Goal, R. J. Jones full-backs, T. Hughes and Jim Hughes half-backs, W. T. Jones, H. Parry, and C. Roberts forwards, E .Jones, Ned Jones, C. Jones, T. E. Griffiths, and R. O. Twist. Rhuddlan won the toss, and the Hot. spurs started towards the town goal. The open- ing exchanges favoured the visitors, who went off at top speed on the left, but Lovey overran the ball. The homesters retaliated, and Twist and C. Jones were dangerous, when they were finely checked by Williams. Continuing to press, the home outside left and centre put in come beautifully combined work, and they were given an advantage thtough Bell fouling Twist This was taken, but was put behind. A long kick by H. Parry was rather luckily cleared, and which was returned by Twist, who beat the visitors' custodian amongst great excitement This put the Hotspurs on their metal, who secured a well-deserved goal from Lovey. from the centre Twist made a fine run, and passed to Ned Jones, who beat the custodian for the second time. At this time the home side were having the best of the argument, and the visit- ing defence had all its work cut out to avoid disaster, a long and sustained attack ending in C. Jones heading just outside the upright From the goal kick Twist secured the ball, and dribbled down finely, and just before the whistle blew he added the third goal. At half-time the score stood for the homesters by three goals to two. On resuming the game, good work on the home left followed, a corner being forced, which yielded nothing. A little later Griffiths had a fine opening, of which he failed to take advantage. The game was not nearly so fast as in the earlier stages, and the spectators indulged in cries of Play up Rhudd- lan and Play up Hotspurs." In response to these appeals more life was infused into the play. Just before time was called each side scored, thus leaving the final result in favour of the horristers at four goals to three. The pick of the home team were Twist, Jim Hughes* T. Hughes, and R. J. Jones, the latter doing well between the sticks..Mr. Bentley Jones, officia- ted as referee. -0-- AL-U,N SCHOOL, MOLD, Y. RHYL HARLEQUINS. This was not a football match, but a kick, trip, and jump game, which was brought on by the shouting of a crowd of boys. The referee gave everything to Mold they asked for, and the boys did nothing but jeer when the Harlequins claimed anything. It was indeed a different game to that played at Ruthin a fortnight ago. Up to the first three goals for both sides The game was all that could be desired, but it soon changed. H. P. Roberts was sent from the field for kicking, which was very true, though unjust, for the same player did the same thing to Amos, and the referee coolly warned Amos for it. F. Hughes and R. A. Book scored for Mold against their own side. The result was Mold, 8; Harlequins, 4. To-day (Satur- day) Harlequins play the Hotspurs, and next week Rutl in Grammar School will come down to Rhyl. Any clubs in the district who want dates with the Harlequins can apply to R. Book, Ffrithlands, Rhyl. -0- WELSH FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION MEETING AT CHESTER.

------THE NEW SIGNAL CODE.
THE NEW SIGNAL CODE. The new international code of signals will come into use on the first day of next year. The net result of the new code is that by the adoption of eight additional flags many of the more important signals which have now to be made by three-flag hoists are converted into two-flag signals; that all previous four-flag signals with few exceptions, can be reduced to three- flag signals; and that a large number of new sig- nals to be made by hoists of not more than three flags have been introduced.

THE CAMPANIA COLLISION;
THE CAMPANIA COLLISION; CUNARD COMPANY CONDEMNED. On Tuesday, in the Admiralty Court,Mr. Justice Gorell Barnes delivered a considered judgment in the action which the owners of the Liver- pool barque Embleton and others Bought to recover damages for injuries sustained through a collision with the Cunard steamer Campania, which took place on the morning of July 21st last, in the St. George's Channel, whereby eleven of the crew of the Embleton lost their lives, and the vessel was sunk. The survivors of the crew claimed compensation for their lost effects. Both parties to the action alleged negligent navigation as a contributory cause, acd the defendants counter-claimed for damages sustained by the steamer. His Lordship held that the barque was not to blame for this collision, but that the Campania must be held guilty by a breach of Article 16 of the regulations, in having pro- ceeded in a fog at an immoderate rate of speed, and must therefore be held solely to blame for the collision,
A GERMAN WOMAN'S CRIME.
A GERMAN WOMAN'S CRIME. TEN YEARS FOR MANSLAUGHTER. At the Central Criminal Court, London, on Tuesday, Erasteen Kotz, (48), a German midwife, was indicted for causing the death of Kate Kennedy, through an alleged illegal opera- tion. The deceased was a cook in service in Belgravia, and in ) consequence of an advertisement she read in a newspaper she called at a house in Whitechapel, where the so- oused, under the name of Mrs. Evans, carried on the vocation of midwife. Subsequently Ken- nedy became ill, and was taken to a hospital. Three operations were performed, but the patient died, after having been in hospital seven weeks.— The defence invited the jury to convict of man- slaughter and not murder.—The jury found the prisoner guilty of manslaughter.—Mr. Justice Darling passed sentence of ten years' penal servi, tude.
GALE IN THE NORTH SEA.
GALE IN THE NORTH SEA. LOST ON THE CORK BANDS. A Harwich correspondent states that early on Tuesday morning, whilst the Ipswich lighter Lillie, laden with maize, was being towed just off the Cork Sands the hawser broke. The Lillie was blown on to the Sands, and in less than fire minutes broke in two. Her crew of three men, named Turner, Godbould, and Norman, were net afterwards seen. All were married men with families, and belonged to Ipswich. An Aldeburgh correspondent also telegraphs that signals of distress were on Tuesday morning fired from the Cork lightship. The Aldeburgh lifeboat prepared to put to sea, but before it was launched news was received from Harwioh that the Harwich lifeboat had proceeded to the spot. She found that a lighter in tow of the tug had broken adrift, and had broken up in a few minutes. Her crew of three hands were drowned. 4
EXCITING FIRE SCENES.
EXCITING FIRE SCENES. SHOP GIRLS BURNED TO DEATH. An outbreak of fire, resulting in the death of two people and injuries to seven others, was dis- covered in a Belfast drapery establishment on Tuesday morning. The premises, which were oc- cupied by Mr. John Gray, his family, and five as- sistants, were well alight at the time. In fact, the escape of the inmates was quite cut off. A ladder was, however, quickly brought and placed against the burning building. Police-constable Twinem and a soldier were the first to ascend, and rescued Mrs. Gray and her child. The constable returned, and was bringing down a man when the ladder broke. Both were flung heavily to the ground and seriously injured. Those who were still in danger then began to jump into blankets held by bystanders. Annie Boyle, 'however, missed her footing and was killed. When the flames were extinguished the charred body of Minnie Flanders, aged 28, was found in an attic. Seven people are detained in the hospital for burns and other injuries. The ahop and its contents were entirely destroyed,
ASSESSING OXFORD COLLEGES.
ASSESSING OXFORD COLLEGES. There is a dispute going on between the Uni. versity and the town of Oxford on the question of assessment, a suggested increase of between M,000 and £ 40,000 on the assessment of the colleges being the cause. The University is in arms about the big increase, which would hit some of the poorer colleges very hard, and there will be a keen fight against it.
EXTRAVAGANCE, IMMORALITY,…
EXTRAVAGANCE, IMMORALITY, AND EMBEZZLEMENT. At the Old Bailey, on Tuesday, William Henry Terry, 28, late accountant's clerk, in the service of St. James's Vestry, Westminster, was sentenced to five years' penal servitude for forgery and em- bezzlement. He pleaded guilty. The allegations were that Terry had for a long time pursued a system of forgery and fraud, and that his defalca- tions in three years and a half amounted to £ 5,000. He had lived a most extravagant life, and, though married, he had spent over £1,000 upon another woman.
--------------A GLADSTONE…
A GLADSTONE LA W SUIT. Justice Kekewicb, in the Chancery Division on Tuesday, gave judgment for the defendant in the case of Gladstone v. Potts, which was an action to determine whether the lord of the manor of Hawarden was entitled to certain mines and minerals underlying the lands within the manor, or whether the lands in dispute (waste land and salt marshes) were vested by Acts of Parliament in the Dee Land Company, who had sold them to Mr. F. A. Potts.
. HOME ONCE MORE.
HOME ONCE MORE. General Buller received a most enthusiastic home-coming at Credition on Tuesday. Thousands of townspeople and visitors thronged the streets, and the town was lavishly decorated. At the Public Rooms an address of welcome was read by Sir John Shelley and presented by Mr. Dart,chair- man of the Town Council. Sir Redvers Buller, in reply, said he wonld never forget that welcome. He had finished campaigning and was glad to get to get home. A procession was then formed, and General Buller was escorted to his home by his tentantry, the local fire brigade, and members of various publio bodies.
_-V.C. WON BUT NOT WORN.
V.C. WON BUT NOT WORN. Gallant Lieutenant Francis Newton Parsons, Essex Regiment, has not lived to wear the Vic- toria Cross which, Tuesday night's Gazette states, has been conferred on him. He won it at Paarde- berg on February 18th, by rescuing and carrying to a place of safety a wounded private after dress- ing his wound and twice fetching water to him under heavy fire. Lieutenant Parsons was killed on March 10th in an engagement at Dreifontein, on which occasion he again displayed conspicuous crallantry.
-----PLEDGED TO RESIST TITHES.
PLEDGED TO RESIST TITHES. For refusing to pay tithes to the Vicar of Big- pham, a hundred and twenty-three parishioners, mostly Nonconformists, have been summoned to appear at Blackpool County Court. The sums due vary from Is. 6d. to E3, but all the defendants are determined to resist to the uttermost.
¡H--REFUSED A PARDON.
¡H REFUSED A PARDON. A prisoner at Pentonville, William Andrews, was pardoned by the Home Secretary as there was stated to be no likelihood of his recovering from a peculiar disease of the blood. Relatives made preparations to look after him, but he de- clined to leave the prison infirmary, where he subsequently died.

The French Minister of Marine has ordered Admiral Richard to make a trial of Virginian coal on the French squadron. The queen has sanctioned the appointment of Lieutenant-Colonel R. C. G. Mayne, C.B., who commanded the field force in the Mekran operations of 1898, to be an aide-de-camp to her Majesty with the rank of colonel in the Army. Sir George Turner, says a Melbourne cable, has carried a vote of no confidence in the Victorian Government by 51 to 42 votes. Women's suff- rage and old-age pensions were the chief points in the Government programme. The dog-muzzling order may account for the extreme boldness of rats at Llanelly. A local hairdresser has been savagely attacked by one in the public street. The brute several times ran up the man's garments, and tried to bite him, but was ultimately beaten off. In a Factory A cts prosecution at Yarmouth, a fish curer, Frederick Holmes, was fined 5s. and 16s. 6d. costs for employing a boy under legal age.
