XORD ROSEBKKY AND LIBERAL LEAGUE. The Earl of Rosebery presided over a din&er of the Liberal League, held at the Hotel Cecil, and, in proposing the toast of Prosperity to the League," said that while not attributing excessive importance to bye-elections, he regarded the recent contest at Leeds, in the circumstances under which it had been fought, as an epoch-making election, a great triumph for Liberalism, and a damaging blow to the prestige of the Government. It was beginning to be judged by the country. With all his heart he hoped the end of the war would end the differences of the Liberal party; but he could not agree to abandonment of the principles of the League on Irish and other questions. He proceeded to criticise the Government in regard to their domestic policy, and in sketching the objects of the Liberal League mentioned that its members were determined that there should be no independent Parliament set up in Dublin. Mr. Asquith declared he would not include himself in any party for aggressive action against fellow-Liberals. "Their League offered no obstruction. Sir E. Grey having spoken, Mr. Barran gave a few words on the North Leeds election. The electors, he declared, had followed the advice of Lord Rosebery with the best results.

PRESENTATION TO LORD KITCHENER. Lord Kitchener was a guest at the annual South African dinner at the Hotel Cecil, London, and the Lord Mayor, on behalf of the Corporation of Cape- town, presented him with a sword of honour. Having expressed his thanks for the gift, Lord Kitchener said he had a confident hope that, in South Africa at any rate, the sword would never again be drawn from its scabbard. He paid a warm tribute to Lord Milner, in whom he said they all had confidence, wishing him every success in the arduous task which was now before him. Nothing, he added, would more assist Lord Milner in his great work than the rapid development of the country, which was full of natural resources and contained the makings of a new America in the southern hemisphere.

THEFT OF AFRICAN WAR MEDALS. The other morning the paymaster's office and the orderly room at the barracks at Berwick were broken into, and seventy-one South African war medals as well as two hundred and twenty-three clasps were stolen. The whole of the premises were also ransacked, but nothing else of value was taken, although everything was thrown into con- fusion. About a month ago the canteen at the barracks was also forcibly entered, and jE4 was taken.

===== STRUGGLE IN A CHURCH. A young man was observed to be acting strangely in the beautiful Roman Catholic church of the city of Cashel. He had got inside the marble altar rails, and resisted all the efforts to remove him. In the struggle he pulled down the marble structure, which fell with a crash, smashing the marble steps beneath. Ultimately the man was dragged from the church and given into custody. He is supposed to be a lunatic. He killed a goat on his way to the church.

RAILWAY STATION EXPLOSION. An explosion occurred on Thursday night at the Bat and Ball station, Sevenoaks, on the South- Eastern Railway. A policeman on duty outside the station heard a loud report and saw flames issuing from the waiting-room. Immediately afterwards a porter named Fuller rushed out of the room with his clothes on fire. He was followed by Station- master Bunce and a shunter named Brooks. The three men were taken to the Cottage Hospital, "where the man Fuller was detained. It is believed that an escape of gas was the cause of the explosion.

EXTRAORDINARY YARMOUTH STORY. An extraordinary story has been told to the Yarmouth magistrates of an attempt to fire a ship docked in the harbour. The barquentine Meda had been left by the captain with only the cook, named Herbert Mingay, who was shipped on Monday, on board. On the captain returning on Tuesday night he found his state-room on fire, while paraffin oil had been spread about with other inflammables. The door of his room had been forced, and he missed many of his belongings. Mingay was not to be found. At a late hour Mingay got on a shrimp boat, the Three Brothers, which was prepared for sea, cast her off, and was proceeding to sea, when the crew of the shrimp boat, who were in an inn on the quay, hearing of their boat beini; taken, went in pursuit in another boat, overhauled Mingay, and detained him till a policeman arrived. He had on the shrimp boat clothes and food, and the vessel looked fitted out for a voyage. He now admitted stealing the shrimp boat and the clothes from the Meda, but the fire he denied all know- ledge of. He was committed to the assizes on all three charges:

A NURSE'S MARRIAGE STORY. Mr. Justice Barnes has had befoir him, in the Divorce Court, the case of Burke v. Burke. This was the petition of Mrs. Alice Burke for a dissolu- tion of her marriage on the ground of the cruelty, desertion, and adultery of her husband, Frederick Burke.—Mr. Murphy, who appeared for the petitioner, stated that the petitioner had been a hospital nurse at the Liverpool Royal Infirmary, and she first met the respondent when he was an in-patient there, and had his leg amputated. As a result of the acquaintance, they were married at All Saints' Church, Princes Park, Liverpool, on January 1st, 1893. From the commencement of the married life the respondent systematically ill- treated his wife. A few days after the marriage he struck her. Subsequently the wife had to leave him in consequence of her husband's brutality. Later on he was convicted in Liverpool for obtaining money under false pretences. During the course of last year the husband appeared in London in "quite another capacity," viz., he was engaged in the service of the Church of England Temperance Society, and was also found to be living with another woman.—These facts having been proved, his lordship granted a decree nisi, with costs.

ANGLESEY JEWEL ROMANCE. The story of the recovery of the Anglesey jewels provides all the elements of a great romance. The valet who robbed his master, the mysterious lady who disappeared with the plunder, the innocent people in Paris who wanted to return it to its owner—on the basis of a cash payment—and the detective and his confederates who succeeded in "spoiling their game," might all have sprung from the imagination of a Conan Doyle. With charac- teristic shrewdness Detective-inspector Drew kept back the full details of Gault's confession until the recovery of practically the whole of the jewels was assured. Had he published it as soon as it was made, the lady in whose possession they were might have dropped them into the sea. As it was, shortly after Gault's trial a man in Paris communicated with Lord Anglesey's representatives, saying he believed he had come across some of the jewels and would be willing to sell them back. To encourage him the detectives, acting as Lord Anglesey's friends, bought several of the jewels at nominal prices. The ruse was effectual. Presently the man in Paris spoke of the great pear-shaped pearl, valued at £12,000. For this 35,000f. (£1,400) was offered, but the negotiator was dissatisfied, and said he would like to see Lord Anglesey him- self. Accordingly one of his lordship's servants dressed for the part and went to Paris. "Where did you get the jewels?" he asked. "We were searching the ashes at Martinique after the eruption of Mount Pelee," was the reply, "and we found them there in a tin box with a letter Baying what they were." Eventually, it was arranged that a representative of the Marquess (who was in reality a detective) should accompany the man to a cafe, where his two friends who had the pearl should hand it over in exchange for the money. The man made it a condition that the detective should remain in one part of the cafe while he went among the crowd in another part and obtained the pearl. This was agreed upon, and he went away, fetched the pearl from his friends, and handed itf over. The detective gave a signal, and within two minutes the three men were appre- hended. Women in the crowd had been acting as detectives, and had noticed the two men from whom the jewel was obtained. Chief-inspector Drew arranged the coup. Three weeks ago he left London, giving it out that he was going to Switzerland on holiday in order to throw in- terested persons off the scent. It was from Switzer- land that he organised the recovery of the jewels and the capture of the men. He has succeeded in getting back nearly £30,000 worth of the jewellery lost, the value of the whole of which was estimated at something over £40,000. Under the French law the arrested men cannot be extradited. Gault's lady friend will be the next to engage the attention of the detective, and there is already a suspicion of her whereabouts. An appeal is to be lodged against the de ci-1 n in favour of Sir Roger Palmer delivered bv Justice Swinfen Eady in the Thames fishery dilute. Werk has been stopped at a Dublin laundry bv an eel 3ft. long and over 41b. in weight, finding its way into one of the water-pipes of the establishment. With a membership of 419,606, the General Federation of Trades Unions had an income of £29,962 during the year just ended. Its total funds now amount to £76,969.

THE Vi loN C,vn\s. In an an- wer leJ Uie -ttner U.i> <.o Mr C" 03 who asked whether the charges made under he proclamation of August 15th, 1901, fur the cost of maintenance of wives and children in the concentra- tion camps against burghers on commando who did act surrender before September 15th have now been cancelled, and whether, 'n the cases of the i arms sold under the proclamation to make good these charges,steps have been or will now be taken to reinstate in these farll1" the burghers whose farms were thus sol Mr. Chamberlain has stated that no steps han; been taken to recover the cost of maintenance since the conclusion of peace. Farms which were being advertised lor sale when the terms of surrender were signed were withdrawn by notiee published 00 June 6th. No other action has been taken in the matter, but a report from Lord Milner is now on the way home.

A CANAANITISH CASTLE FOUND. Dr. Settin, Professor of tiie Protestant Theological Faculty at Vienna University, whose discovery of one of Solomon's castles was recently reported, has now arrived at Trieste. The results of the explora- tion tour are much larger than was anticipated, writes the Chronicle correspondent. Dr. "Settin has succeeded in excavating in Jezreel Valley a Canaanitish castle three or four thousand years old, also two Jewish fortresses and an Arabian castle. The explorer has also found in old cemeteries a great number of archteological treasures, among them a Jewish altar, decorated with six cherubim, four lions, and two mythological wall paintings supposed to be unique.

HOLBEIN'8 CHANNEL SWIM. Mr. Montague Holbein started on Thursday even- ing on his attempt to swim across the English Channel to the Kentish coast, entering the water at Cape Grisnez shortly before half-past five. He commenced his swim at the beginning of the eastern or flood tide, going off with a powerful stroke, and making a good pace through the water. The weather conditions could not have been more favourable, the sea being almost smooth except for a little ruffle occasionally on the water caused by ths light easterly breeze. He was accompanied by friends on the tug Gianville, those on board including two medical men. He was well rubbed with oil before starting, and wore a specially-fitted mask and goggles for the protection of his eyes. Soon after his start the sea became very choppy. There was a strong tide setting eastward, and Holbein was steadily drifted along towards Calais. He swam in superb style, and made fairly good headway across Channel, considering the very strong tide. By 11.30 Holbein was about half- a-dozen miles off Calais in his effort to reach the English coast. The lights on the English shore had been visible for some time, and steady progress was made towards them or the first hour or two of the westwnv.l ti<'e, but this also strengthened, and was quite Ic.l.i.h n Channel. By two o'clock in the morning Holbein pluckily kept ahead, and was carried steadily back to Cape Gri*•<•• and past that point. He was covering three miles an hour for the greater part of the time, but I i- progress directly towards England by h:.if-past f. >• was only represented by eight miles, alll "ugh he nad swam about thirty. It had been i.ticipated th.it he would reach the Varne buoy, miles off !> iver, on the westward tide, but, as this was a consultation of the experts on board was held, with the result that Holbein was advi. d to give up and try again. Holbein refu-ed to accept the advice for some time, and con- tinued to persevere with his swim. His friends emphasised their advice later with the result that Holbein agreed to come out. He was bitterly disappointed, and jumped into the boat quite unassisted at six o'clock. He was quite fresh and strong, whilst, to the surprise of everyone, his temperature was normal. On landing at Dover Holbein, who had an enthusi- astic reception, expressed his inn determination to try again.

SALESWOMAN AND ENGINEER. At the London Sheriff's Court, < ;i Friday, before Mr. Under-Sheriff Burchell and a jury, the remitted case of Xon-ie v. Butchart came on for hearing. This was an action to recover damages for breach of promise of marriage, the plaintiff being a Miss Margaret Norrie, a saleswoman, and the defendant Mr. James Butchcrt, an engineer in the employ of the British India Steam Navigation Company, on the steamship Golconda. Defendant did not appear, and was not represented.—Mr. Pollock, counsel for the plaintiff, said that some six years ago the plaintiff was a saleswoman in a large boot store in Glasgow, and the defendant seventh engineer on board the steamship Golconda. Defendant was now, however, fourth engineer, having been promoted. The acquaintanceship soon ripened into friendship, and then into something more. In July, 1899, the defendant, just before leaving for a voyage, asked the plaintiff to marry him. She consented, and the wedding was fixed for July, 1900, but a postponement was agreed to. In November when pressed to fulfil his engagement, he declined. The plaintiff was now twenty-seven years of age, and the jury would doubtless bear that in mind in assessing the damages, as some of the best years of her life had been wasted. A large number of affectionate letters passed between the parties, defendant signing him- self, "Your ever faithful Jim," and later, "Your ever loving Jim." At the end of the letters were those little crosses which, said counsel, meant so much to the lovers at the time, but so little when read in the dry atmosphere of the Sheriff's court. Counsel concluded by saying that the plaintiff left her situation at the defendant's instigation, and was also put to some expense in preparing her tremxeau.— Miss Margaret Norrie, the plaintiff, residing at Govan, near Glasgow, went into the box and bore out the counsel's statement. The defendant sent her a telegram just as she was about to start for London, and told her he could make no arrange- ments for the wedding. Plaintiff added that defendant was in receipt of £8 per month, but now it was more, on account of his promotion.—The jury assessed the damages at £ 125.—Judgment for that amount was entered, with costs.

THE CORONATION THE KING'S CONVALESCENCE. The King for the first time since his stay on tin Victoria and Alber: walked on the promenade deci above the pavilion on Monday. To do this his Majesty had to pass up and down a flight of stairs, and he did so unassisted. This constitutes a very marked advance in the King's progress, and indicates how well the wound is healing. The British Me licil Journal says: We are pleased to be able to state that the King is doing well, and has made more rapid progress than was anticipated. The wound is reduced to very small proportions. Putting aside actual accidents, the public need not fear any second postponement of the Coronation, nor be uneasy as to the King's ability to go through the ceremony with safety and without exhaustion. On Tuesday his Majesty was up on deck at an earlier hour than usual, and was an interested spectator of the start of the yachts engaged in the race for his Majesty's Cup. The Royal yacht left her moorings just before one o'clock and went for a cruise to the eastward. The King has had a number of visitors to see him, and on Monday the Empress Eugenie, who is staying at Cowes on board her yacht the Thistle, paid a visit to the King and Queen. The Queen and Princess Victoria, accompanied by Sir Frederick Treves, afterwards went on board the Royal yacht Osborne, and made a private visit to Netley Hospital. A SEA TRIP TO SCOTLAND. Their Majesties, who will return to Cowes after the Coronation and will stay there for at least a week, will then proceed from Cowes to Balmoral, says the World, and in order to avoid the long rail- way journey from Gosport to Ballater, it is con- templated that they shall go from the Solent to Aberdeen on the Royal yacht. The Braemar Gatlu ring, which has not been held since September, 1899, will probably be revived this year, but it is understood that it will take place at Old Mar Castle, and not at Balmoral. CEREMONY REHEARSALS. Several rehearsals of the Coronation ceremony within the Abbey have been held under the direction of the Duke of Norfolk, Earl-Marshal, General Sir Reginald Pole-Carew instructing the noblemen and others in the task of marching in the prescribed fashion. Among those attending on Monday were Lord Churchill (ActingLord Chamberlain), Viscount Valentia, Lord Rosebery, General Pole-Carew, Dr. Sheppard, Canons Robinson, Duckworth, and Henson, the Dean of Westminster, Bishop Welldon, the Bishop of Winchester, Mr. Victor Cavendish, Earl Spencer, the Earl of Pembroke, and several of the Pages and the oflicials of the College of Arms. BEARING THE ROYAL TRAINS. Special attention has been devoted to practising the pages in the important duties which devolve upon them in bearing the trains of the King and Queen. The King will not carry the enormous weight of the Imperial mantle during the long progress from the annexe to the" theatre." But the mantle rests upon his shoulders during the investiture with the ring and the two sceptres, the putting on of the Crown, the presentation of the Bible, the enthronisation, the homage, the crowning of the Queen, and the Holy Communion. Some forty yards of the purest cloth of gold have been used for this magnificent robe, in addition to its sumptuous embroideries and <ipp/iqi,{<, into which heavy gold and silver threads also enter largely. Hence the necessity for support of the great weight in a manner that is something more than a picturesque formality. Lord Suffield fulfils the duty of Master of the Robes, and the train will be carried under his direction by six peers who are still minors, namely the Duke of Leinster, the Marquess Conyngham, the Earls of Portarlington and Caledon,Lord Vernon, and Lord Somcrs. They will be assisted by Viscount Torrington, who was one or the Pages of Honour at the State opening of Parliament in February last, and the Hon. V. A. Spencer. The Queen will have no ceremonial vestments to assume, but her train is of immense length, and will be a heavy burden to sustain. The Duchess of Buccleuch, as Mistress of the Robes, herself assists in bearing it, and the pages will include the youthful Marquess of Stafford, Lord Claud Nigel Hamilton, the Hon. Robert Palmer, the Earl of Macclesfield, the Hon. Edward Lascelles, and the Hon. Arthur Anson. INVITATIONS TO MAYORS. The Earl Marshal, in accordance with his Majesty's commands, has addressed communications to all Mayors of towns of over 20,000 inhabitants inviting their attendance at the Coronation cere- mony. The invitations were sent out by telegram on Sunday night, and an immediate reply by tele- gram was requested. The text of the invitation foi the Coronation ceremony sent to Mayors of pro- vincial boroughs is as follows: "I am commanded to send you an invitation for the Coronation on August 9th. If you wish one kindly reply. You would have to wear robes and chain if no robes, uniform or Court dress, with chain." The Mayoi of Clonmel sent the following reply to the Earl- Marshal's message: "Neither wish for nor will accept invitation to Coronation.—CONDON, Mayoi aacl M.P., East Tipperary." CORONATION ITEMS. It is announced at The Hague that owing to the state of King Edward's health, no special or diplomatic mission will be sent by the Netherlands to London for the Coronation festivities. A Coronation committee at Wolverhampton has arranged for the roasting of an ox on Saturday, in celebration of the Coronation. Coronation festivities have been arranged at Buenos Ayres for Friday and Saturday. The authorities have, a Times telegram says, conceded permission to fly the British flag on these days. Simultaneously with the Coronation at West- minster Abbey, there will be a special service at St. Saviour's, Southwark. The service will be choral, but the music, owing to the unavoidable absence of a large number of the choir on their holi- days, will be of a simple character. The Coronation chairs which the peers and peeresses are to use are being eagerly competed for. They are all branded with the King's monogram and other devices, and are all to be sold after the Coronation. It is already evident that there will only remain at most some one hundred and fifty of these chairs for competition among the outside public, so keen is the desire on the part of the peers, the Government officials, and others to have them as mementos. It is officially announced that the Abbey will be open from Tuesday, 12th inst., until Saturday, 16th inst., between the hours of 10 a.m. and six p.m. On Tuesday only the Colonial, Indian, and native troops will be admitted under command and without charge. The charge for admission on the other days will be as follows: Wednesday, August 13th, 5s; Thursday, August 14th, 2s. 6d. Friday and Saturday, August 15th and 16th, 6d. THE NAVAL REVIEW. The lists shewing the positions which the ships taking part in the Naval Review at Spithead will occupy indicate that in the main arrangement will be very similar to that observed at the original assembly of the Fleet in June. In all there will be six lines, that designated F being reserved as the anchorage for foreign warships. This will be on the Isle of Wight side, and next to the foreigners will be the principal British line, designated "E," headed by the flagship of the Channel Squadron, and in this will be the Royal Sovereign, which takes the place of the London as flagship of Sir Charles Hotham, the Admiral in supreme command. Lines D and C will be composed of some of the older battleships, cruisers, and smaller craft, while line B is allotted entirely to torpedo-boat destroyers, which will be moored off the mainland between Southsea and Stokes Bay. Nearer in shore will be a smaller line, designated "A," reserved for special service boats. The full list is as follows, the names reading from east to west: LINE E.—Battleships: Majestic, Jupiter, Han- nibal, Prince George, Magnificent, Mars, Trafalgar, Nile, Royal Sovereign, Edinburgh, and Dreadnought; the cruisers Niobe, Doris, Pactolus, Sutlej, Furious, Prometheus, St. George, Juno, and Brilliant. LINK D.—Battleships: Revenge, Empress of India, Camperdown, Anson, Resolution, Benbow, Sans Pareil, Collingwood, Devastation. Cruisers: Cres- cent, Endymion, Australia, Galatea, Apollo, Melampus, Severn, Andromache, Minerva, Rainbow, and Hyacinth. LINK C. — Cruisers: Immi rtalite, Narcissus, Hawke, and Scylla. Gunboats: Antelope, Jason, Spanker, Speedwell, Gleaner. Skipjack, Renard, Hebe, Alarm, Sheldrake, Sha/pshooter, Seagull, Juseur, Circe, and Hazard; the training ships Northampton, Calliope, Cleopatra, Dolphin, Wan- derer, Pilot, Martin, Liberty, Nautilus, and Sea- flower. LINK B.—Destroyers Succe", Zephyr, Electra, Zebra, Flirt, Fervent, Wi/.ard, Syren, Racehorse, Snapper, Haughty, Angler, Roebuck, Ranger, Sunfish, Swordti h. Sprightly, Lively, Opossum, Decoy Gipsy, Skate, Dasher, Charger, Starfish, Ferrer, Hunter, Hasty, Contest, Shark, Hornet, and Ha iock. "What an excellent way of settling the drink question it would be if all the public-houses weie kel-t by members of the Blue Ribbon Army!" said ftir. Justice Darling at the Law Courts. Damages to the amount of £4,000 were obtained at Leeds assizes against the Lancashire and York- shire hail way Coir:p; ny by Mr. Filner CasS, a com- traveller, who was injured in a railway accident at lioibeck.
