BRIDGEND LISTENS TO BKlDGERD
BRIDGEND LISTENS TO BKlDGERD When a stranger addresses us we listen with attention, but when a neighbour speaks out, more especially when telling us good news, we listen with increased interest. It is very encouraging to many ox us here in Bridgend to read week after week such splen- did news from our neighbours, such as this which we print to-day. Mrs. Ann Da vies, 6 Llynfi-estreet. Bridg- end, says:—"Since I have used Doan's Backache Kidney Pills I have kept quite free from backache and dizziness. I can highly reoommend these pills in all cases of kidney trouble, for they have been a blessing to me. The pains were just in the small of my back, and now and then caught me across the loins. They made my housework a bother, for I could hardly straighten myself after stooping. The dizzy turns I used to get were dreadful. I was persuaded to try Doan's Backache Kidney Pills, and was pleased to find that a few doses did me good. i continued the treatment, and, as I have said, the pills cured me. I have good reason to speak well of Doan's medicine. (Signed), Ann Da vies." Backache is a sign of kidney complaint, for the ache comes not from the hack, but from the kidneys, which lie just beneath the small of the back. The pain is caused by uric and other poisons opposing and hinder- ing the kidneys, and until these poisons are removed you can never oe well. Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are a special medicine for the kidneys and bladdei. Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are two shil- lings and ninepence per box (six boxes for thirteen shillings and ninepence). Of all chemists and stores, or post free, direct from Foster-McClellan Co., 8 Wells-street, Oxford- street, London, W. Doa.n's are the pills that cured Mrs. Davies.

GLAMORGANSHIRE SCHOOLS. I N.U.T. CONFERENCE. PAPER BY MR T. C. JONES, PONTYRHIL The half-yearly meeting of the Glamorgan bounty Teachers was held at Gnoll Council School, Neath, on Saturday. Mr. Evan Davies, Barry, president of the association, ivas in the chair. At the morning session a paper was road by Mr. T. O. Jones, Pontyrhil, on The Staffing of the Schools of Glamorgan." He gave figures as to the staffing of intermediate schools, viz., Penarth, one qualified teacher for 14; Gowerton, one for 19; Gelligaer, one for 19; Barry, Pbntypridd, Port Talbot, and Ystalyfera, one for 21; Bridgend, Neath and Merthyr, one for 22; Aberdare and Porth, one for 24. Dealing with the teachers of the elementary schools of the Glamorgan County Council, Mr. Jones said that only three out of ten were fully qualified; four in ten were uncertificated; one in ten was sup- plementary; two in ten were pupil teachers. Barry, on the other hand, he said. had a cer- tificated teacher for every 37 scholars. Under the Glamorgan County Council, there were 92 scholars for each certificated teacher. In Barry, seven out of ten teachers were fully. trained and oertificated-a great improve- ment upon the three in ten under the Gla- morgan County Council. Contrasting two schools, one in Barry, the other under the Glamorgan County Council, Mr. Jones gave the following table: -Barry. 400 scholars; twelve certificated teachers, one uncertifi- cated teacher, and no pupil teacher. Gla- morgan, 420 scholars; four certificated teachers; five uncertificated teachers; four pupil teachers. How much longer will the parents- of Glamorgan suffer these anoma- lies?" asked Mrt Jones. c. I will here warn those who are now starving the working man's child educationally," he said in con- clusion, "that the last straw is being put on the camel's back. When the workers realise the state of the schools there will be a revo- lution in Glamorgan. The working men will take their soats on the County Council, and will see that the rich heritage which their children deserve, the right to make the best of the gifts which God has endowed them with, shall be denied them no longer, for all must admit that the working man's child is as richly endowed intellectually as any other child.' A resolution to appoint a committee to summarise the paper with a view to publish- ing it in leaflets for wide circulation amongst the ratepayers in Glamorganshire was passed. At the afternoon session the question of the payment of salaries to teachers in even- ing classes in schools was introduced. Mr. T. T. Jenkins, Merthyr, moved that the pay- ment for such services be made monthly, and this was seconded by Miss Williams, Cardiff. There was an amendment by Mr. Kelly, seconded by Mr. Peter Thomas, that the County Council be asked to carry out its pro- mise to pay the salaries twice a year. The amendment was carried by a large majority. Mr. Jenkins moved another resolution em- bodying a scale of payment for evening classes, and this was carried without a divi- sion. The projected testimonial to Mr. Tom John, M.A., was mentioned. It appeared that £100 had been collected. It was sug- gested that the presentation should be made at Oxford in connection with the next an- nual conference of the N.U.T. This was opposed by some, and in the result it was agreed to refer the matter to a committee.

The Bath and West Soeiety. In June next the annual exhibition of the Bath and West and Southern Oounties So- ciety is to be held at Nowport, Mon., and the prize list and regulations are in course of issue.

There are also classes for both old and new choose, for dairy produce, and miscellaneous competitions.
Weather and the Crops.
Weather and the Crops. The cold in England has been severe but not intense. Ten degrees at midnight and four at noon have been about the average. Wheat can scarcely have taken any harm, and rye is, if anything, hardier than wheat. The cold in France is 10 degrees greater than in England and there being little snow on the great plains the wheat plant may prove to have suffered. The barley trade is much more buoyant from a week ago, and maltsters are paying very fair prices for bright samples. Feeding barley and barley meal sell briskly. There is a general advance of 6d. to 9d. per quarter in oats. The supply of wheat on passage has diminished slightly from a week ago.—From Monday's Mark- lane Express."

MR. WHITELEY MURDERED. .
MR. WHITELEY MURDERED. THE FAMOUS UNIVERSAJj PROVIDER" SHOT DEAD IN HIS SHOP. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE OF HIS ASSAILANT. A sensational tragedy took place in West- bourne-grove on Thursday, afternoon, last week. Mr. William Whiteley, the famous Universal Provider," being shot dead. The tragic affair occurred in the lace department of Messrs. Whiteley's establishment between half-past twelve and a quarter to one. About half-past ten in tHe morning one of the attendants in livery stationed at the on- trance to the stores in Westbourne-grove was approached by a well-dressed young man. The man asked the attendant the way to the principal entrance to the stores, and was directed there. Soon afterwards he came back again and walked up and down the road for some distance smoking a pipe. There was nothing in his demeanour to at- tract. any attention. After some time he went away, apparently to the Westbourne- grove entrance, where he entered, and made his way to the lace department. Mr. Whiteley, it appears, had come to his office about 10 o'clock, and in the course of the morning his assailant had been shown into his private office, where he remained closeted with the chief of the firm for about three- quarters of an hour. When Mr. Gross, his corresponding clerk, went into Mr. White- ley's room the latter said to him, "I cannot see you now, Mr. Gross; I hope to see you presently." Mr. Whiteley, who evidently desired to get rid of his assailant, was the first to emerge from the room, and was heard to say, I can't stop to argue with you any longer. If you don't go I shall have to call the police." Po The sound of shots was immediately after- wards heard. A bullet struck Mr. Whitelev in the back of the neck, and when he turned round his assailant fired several shots at him. Mr. Whiteley immediately fell to the ground. The sound of the shots caused great conster- nation, and assistants from all parts of the building rushed to ascertain the cause. Be- fore they could seize the man he had turned the revolver upon himself and inflicted seri- ous injuries. Medical aid was at once sent for, and the police were summoned from the neighbouring police-station, and within a comparatively short time some half a dozen doctors, together with a number of police officers, were quickly on the scene. It was found on examination that Mr. Whiteley was suffering from four wounds in all, one of which was in the heart, and proved immediately fatal. At 3 o'clock the following notice was posted up on the shutters of the closed shops" Owing to the death of Mr. White- ley this establishment will be closed for the remainder of to-day (Thursday)." THE ASSAILANT. The murderer of Mr. William Whiteley was identified as a man who arrived at Ger- hard's Hotel, Red Lion-street, London, three weeks previously, and registered as Horace George Rayner. He was identified in th3 hospital on Friday by Mr. Gerhard, the pro- prietor of the hotel, whom he had informed that ha was the son of a wealthy London merchant. Emphatic denrals were given by the late Mr. Whiteley's family to the mur- derer's assertion that he is a son of the de- ceased. The mysterious claim, however- emphatic as being made by a Roman Catholic on what seemed to be the brink of his eternity -unhappily recalls the fact that the dead merchant's married life was not entirely happy, and that there was a separation be- tween Mr. and Mrs. Whiteley in 1881. The only document found on the murderer when taken to the hospital after he had shot himself was a paper bearing the follow- ing statement: — To whom it may concern. William Whiteley is my father. This two-fold tragedy is due to his refusal of a request which is perfectly reasonable. OTP RAYNER'S PARENTAGE. There waa much speculation at first as to the identity of the man who gave the name of Horace George Rayner. The earlier asr- gArtiona of the police to the effect that his identity was "ell known, and that there was nothing to connect him with anything per- taining to his victim, was not borne out, and the most astounding communication made in connection with the tragedy was the state- ment of Mr. George Rayner, the reputed father of the murderer, which was issued for publication through his solicitor's on Mon- day evening —" Many statements have been appearing in the Press during the past few days connecting our client, Mr. George Rayner, with the man now lying in St. Mary's Hospital, accused of the murder of the late Mr. William Whiteley. Our client feels acutely that his name has been used and published in this way. We are, there- fore, instructed to give to you a definite statement of the facts concerning which so much has been written, and wo trust that after having these facts clearly set out, no further liberties will be taken with our client's name. The facts are briefly as fol- lows There were two sisters, one by name Emily Turner, and the other Louie Turner Louie Turner being an assistant at William Whiteley's. The other sister was visited by Mr. George Rayner. Some time after Mr. Rayner made the acquaintance of Miss Emily Turner, he was informed that Miss Emily Turner had given birth to a child, and that the child was his. Mr. Rayner thereupon assumed the duties and obligations thus thrust upon him, and proceeded with the up- bringing and education of his son. About two years after this Emily Turner was again about to give birth to a child, and she there- upon confessed to Mr. George Rayner that the son he was bringing up as his own was, in fact, neither his son nor her own, and, in fact, that she did not give birth to it. This confession being made, it was mutually agreed between Mr. Rayner and Miss Turner that the son should be relegated to its pro- per parents. Miss Emily Turner informed Mr. Rayner that the child she was about to give birth to was his child, and, although Mr. Rayner had grave reasons to doubt this, owing to the position in which he found himself, he felt it incumbent upon him to accept the responsibility, and promised Miss Turner that the child should be properly educated. Shortly after this Miss Turner left Mr. Rayner and was married. Mr. Rayner has kept his promise to Miss Turner, and has acted as foster-father to this latter son, who is the man now lying in St. Mary's Hospital. The infant was registered by Miss Emily Turner wrongfully in Mr. Rayner's name, the only name to which he is entitled being that of his mother. Messrs. Harold Edwards and Colin also desire it to be known that they deny that M'r. George Ra yner has any connection with Messrs. I Charles Dagnall and Co., insurance brokers, 61 King William-street, E.C." It is stated that Mr. Whiteley was ac- quainted with the Misses Turner. Miss Emily Turner, the. mother of the pri- soner, has been dead some time. Rayner is re-oalled in Birmingham as having: filled a position as correspondence clerk for Tubes (Limited) between October, 1899. and April, 1901. He was known as Horace G. Payne, and it is stated that about j Christmas, 1899, he volunteered a statement to a member of the firm that his real name was Rayner. Some time after, lie confided to his chief that he was the son of Mr. Williams Whitely. He left in 1901 ostensibly to become private secretary to a gentleman of title. WILFUL MURDER." At the inquest on Tuesday a verdict of "Wilful Murder" was returned against Rayner, who was committed for trial at the. Central Criminial Court on the coroner's warrant.

A Quaint Auction.
A Quaint Auction. In pursuance of an ancient oustoin, which dates back to the fifteenth century, the parish meadow 01 the village of Broadway, Dorsetshire, has been let by auction under curious circumstances. Under the will of one John Gould this piece of land, which is, two acres in extent, is to be bid for by par- ishioners during the burning of an inch of candle. Since last year's letting sinistelr al-. lusions have been made to the length of time the candle burned, it being alleged that it was only a oommon dip. The parish clerk pointed out that paraffin candles could hardly have been in use when John Gould made his w:H. hut to avoid discussion he this year came armed with two varieties, the larger being chosen and lit with due cere- mony. At first business was brisk, people remembering that last year the candle only lasted twenty minutes, the first sum offered being C2 10;. Half an hour went by, and by small rises the sum offered was raised to P-9 3a. Then there was a. lull, ? ud just as the wick began to fall over a local farmer offered £9 4a., which bid was not topped, as the candle went out suddenly, having bnrnsd jus4: ouo hour. 1
Glamorgan Chamber of Agriculture.
Glamorgan Chamber of Agriculture. Mr. Robert Forrest occupied the chair at the annual meeting of the Glamorgan Cham- ber of Agriculture at No. 5 High-street, Oar- J diff, on Saturday afternoon. There was a good attendance. The annual report of the Council of the Chamber stated that during the year eight new members had been enrolled, making the present membership five life members and 1 237 annual members. Resolutions had been passed on important matters affecting the members, and the Chamber's delegates to the Central Chamber had attended meetings in London and placed the Glamorganshire i Chamber's views before the Central Cham- ber. A series of experiments had been un- dertaken by the Chamber with reference to potato growing and a report on these would presently be issued. The Council regretted to record the loss sustained to the Chamber through the deaths of Mr. Oliver Williams, Hampstone; Mr. R. L. Bassett, Waterhall; Mr. R. O. Roper, St. Fagans; Mr. W. Gray, Cwm Ishaf; Mr. Evan Lewis, Crofta; and Mr. E. Llewellin, Bryngolen. The Council regretted that the membership of the Cham- ber had not increased in the manner antici- pated, and they trusted every member would endeavour to use his influence in persuading all interested in agriculture to join. The Chairman said they were not getting richer, nor was there that increase in the membership they would like to see. He urged every member to try and induce farmers and landowners who were not al- ready members to join the Chamber. He moved the report be adopted. Colonel Fisher seconded, and it was agreed to. Mr. E. U. David asked whether the secre- tary had done anything to bring the Cham- ber* to the notice of farmers and landowners who were not members, and suggested a. cir- cular might be sent out. Mr. Hubert Alexander, secretary, said he had written private letters to a number of farmers and landowners, but no circulars had been sent out. The Chairman thought Mr. David's sugges- tion to write to non-members a good one. Mr. David said one or two to whom he had spoken said they had never been asked to join, and knew nothing about it. It was decided to ask the district secre- taries to furnish the secretary with the names of likely members, and that the secre- tary in getting the lists should write to the gentlemen named. The election of officers resulted as follows: -Patron, the Earl of Plymouth; president, the Hon. Ivor Guest, M.P.; vice-presidents, Mr. Robert Forrest, Mr. J. M. Randall, Mr. G. Lipscomb, and Mr. W. Meyler Thomas; hon. treasurers, Mr. T. R. Thompson and Mr. F. Greenslade; hon. secretary, Mr. D. T. Alexander; hon. auditor, Mr. C. M. Berkeley;, secretary, Mr. Hubert Alexander. The Cardiff and District Council was re- eeleoted with the exception that Mr. George, The Deri, was appointed in the place of Mr. O. Williams, Hampstone (deceased). The Swansea and Cowbridge District Committees were re-elected, but in the Pontypridd Dis- trict. Committee one alteration was neces- sary, Mr. Thomas Williams taking the place of Mr. Evan Llewellyn (deceased). There was a long discussion on the follow- ing motion of Colonel Fisher: That the re- solution passed at the first annual meeting that fresh delegates be appointed every year be rescinded, and that delegates be elected in future for a longer period." He said it took twelve months for a delegate to get a grip of the business at the Central Chamber, and if they elected fresh delegates every year they would not get that benefit which would result from sending the same delegates two or three years in succession. Mr. G. Lipscomb was in favour of re-elect- ing the delegates for three years, but thought that instead of sending three the number should be two. He pointed out that nearly half their income went in the payment of ex- penses of delegates to the Central Chamber. Mr. E. U. David agreed with Mr. Lips- oomb. After further discussion, it was decided that delegates "may be re-elected," but that N- the number should "not exceed two." Five gentlemen were nominated as delegates, and a. show of hands resulted in Mr. Movler Thomas and Mr. W. Emerson being elected, the former being re-appointed. Mr. Meyler Thomas reported upon the agenda, fui the Central Chamber of Agrioul- ture on January 29th, iin-d moved that they strongly support the Railway Contracts Bill No. 324 when presented to the House of Commons. This was agreed to. With regard to the report of the Com- mittee appointed by the Admiralty to con- sider the humane slaughtering of animals, Mr. Meyler Thomas moved that they pass a resolution objecting to Clause B, which ad- vocates the abolition of private slaughter- houses, and replacing them by public slaugh- ter-houses. This resolution also was car- lieu UilttllllliUUOiJ Mr. G. Lipscomb moved that the secretar- ies of the branch committees of the Chamber be instructed to furnish the secretary with particulars of the railway rates in their dis- trict. A case came before him recently, he said, in which a farmer was charged very high rates fur carriage of manure. On the case being looked into it was found he had been charged too much. Many farmers would simply have paid the rate and been satisfied with grumbling a bit. If farmers when they thought they were being over- charged would communicate with the secre- tary in their district representations could be made to the railway companies. Coming from the Chamber these representationa would have greater weight than from an in- dividual farmer. Colonel Fisher seconded. Mr. D. T. Alexander, speaking in support, said within a fortnight he had had experi- ence of a case in which produce sent from this neighbourhood to London had cost throe times as much as produce sent from the in- terior of Ireland to London, and which had to come through the whole of South Walee. Mr. Hedger Wallace said that some time ago he received complaints from farmers in the Llantrisant neighbourhood abo'a J1 o high railway rates, and an inspector of the Board of Agriculture was coming dotvu in a fortnight to inquire into it. One man said it cost him as much to send a few miles on the Taff Vale Railway as a long distance on the Great Western. He suggested they should collect data from all parts of the dis- trict as quickly as possible and present it to the inspector when he came down. Mr. Lipscomb's resolution was carried nem. con.
MR. WHITELEY MURDERED. .
CDRLlftti Ai CO. IkfcLL. Given keen ice and bracing weather, thert) is, perhaps, no more enjoyable sport than the roaring game" of curling. in South Wales The Mackintosh of Mackintosh, at OottreU, the lato Mr. Arch.ib*i<i ilood, Llwynypia, the lat-e Judge Gwilym Williams, Miskin Manor, and the late Mr. Pettigrew, Castle Gardens, Cardiff, have fostered and encouraged the game when opportunities presented them- selves. At Oottrell on Thursday iast week a well- contested game took place between teams re- presenting St. Fagan's and Cottrell. Play began aoonafter ten o'clock, and up to lunch a very fine struggle was witnessed, the score' at that time standing 18 points to 12 in favour of the home teanl. After lunch play was continued till 5 o'clock, when the Cott- rell team had won the- game by 33 points to 24. Teams: — Cottrell: The Mackintosh of Mackintosh, (skipper), Angus Mackintosh, S. Higgins, and D. McDonald. St. Fagans: Colonel W. Forrest (skipper), C. Stewart, Andrew Templotor., and H. A. Pettigrew. The return match was played on Friday on the Cottrell rink. Teams — St. Fagans: R. Forrest (skipner), Colonel W. Forrest, Andrew Tern piston, and A. C. Stewart. Oottrell: The Mackintosh of Mackintosh, (skipper), Angus Mackintosh, S. Higgins, and D. McDonald. It was a very keenly contested game from the start, and although the St. Fagans team held a commanding lead of 11 points when the soore stood at 25 points to 14, by careful scheming at the penuitimate round 29 points all was declared, and Mr. R. Fbrrest upset the whole house" of 5 points in favour of Cottrell, giving his side the victory by 1 point. GAME AT ST. FAGANS. ICE GIVES WAY; PLAYERS IMMERSFD. A match between St. Fagans and Cottrell was announced to be played on Saturday onj the artificial pond beside Mr. Robert Forreat's residence; but the ice on the Castle ponds was in such excellent condition in the morning that it was decided to play the matoh there, and thither the stones and brooms were carted. The Mackintosh team, however, found it impoasible to keep the on- gagement, and a team of Cardiff experts was got together. Colonel Forrest was to skip St. Fagane, and Mr. Stowart, veterinary sur- geon, was to lead the Cardiff forces. The ice on the centre pond was ideal; it has not been in this condition tor 12 years," said the Colonel; and a delightfully invigorating game was anticipated. But, alas I "the best 1 ,4 laid schemes (of curlers) gang aft agley." While the preliminaries were being arranged the ice suddenly gave way, and Mr. Stewart and Mr. W. W. Pettigrew were soon strug- gling for dear life! It was an exciting scene. Though the depth of the pond where the ice gave way is not more than 8-} feet, the difficulty of rescue was exciting. Mr. Stewart in particular had a most dis- agreeable, and in a way crangerous experi- ence. He was wholly immersed for some time, and was helped out in a very pathetio condition I Colonel Forrest stfon put matters to rights, and within half an hour the dripping curlers were being provided with dry clothes and re- freshments in Mr. Hugh Pettigrew's hospit- able house. It took some time to fish out the stones and the brooms, but by 4 o'clock the "inci- dent was closed." Mr. Robert Forrest, accompanied by Mrs. Forrest, Lady Upoott, and Mrs. W. Forrest,, arrived, and it was decided to try Mr. For- rest's pond. The water here is only a few; inches, and the ice was in good condition1.- A match was arranged between sides skipped by Mr. Robert Forrest and Colonel Forrest* The p-lavers were: Mr. R. Forrest (skip), Mr. Templeton, Mr. W. W. Pettigrew, and' Mr. Hugh Pettigrew. Colonel Forrest (skip), Mr. Mason, Mr. Stewart, and A. Nj Other. The roarin'' game" was then entered on! in downright earnest, and the voices of the curlers could be heard far abroad, as the eager rivals "swept" and shouted! The immersion" incident was k ughetl away" by Mr. Robert Forrest, whose genial banter restored the good feelings of the plungers." Mir. Robert Forrest. who is <>n*i af the greatest exponents of the game living, has pLaved since he was a boy of ten.- He began on the Hamilton (Lanarkshire) rink, where his father was a leading player^ and he never misses a ohance- of the stone and the broom." It is interesting to note that the broomig used at the match on Saturday were recently sent as a gift to Mr. Robert Forrest from a! Scottish devotee of the game, who is an ar- dent admirer of Mr. Forrest's skill and bon- homie 011 the ice. Owing to the late hour at which the matoH commenced, play had soon to be abandoned* for no arrangements had been made to play. by torohlight. It waa an interesting game,. and ended in a win for Mr. Robert Forrest'* side by 6 to 3. It may be noted. that rarely does it happen that curlers get a cold plunge as on Satur- ,day. The ice on the pond was fully two inches, so that the crash came as a live If" and exoitin-g surprise. However, Mr. Stowart and Mr. W. Pettigrew, who had thei worst experience, suffer, we are glad to say# no ill effects of their immersion.
