To-day's Short Story.
To-day's Short Story. A CHANGED CRITIC. The critio yawned- onl-g an instant before he had written "finis" to a magazine article with a dadh of the pen across the last sheet. A brilliant conversationalist, his tongue lould be as scathing as his pen, and it was laid of him. with regard to the latter, that hi half a dozen polished sentences he could do mo-re towards danioiiig a. bock than, ,in-y two of his compeers. A bis. looeely made man was the critic, with grey eyes and pessimistic pose. Presently a servant brought him a visiting owd an a salver. "The lady would be obliged if you would prajit, her an interview, sir." Mrs Halcomb." mutterel the critic, read- mg the inscription. "I can't re-ca.11 the name. Bother the woman. What does she want? However, ask her to oome in, Blake." When she ent-ered-a fair, elegant woman of, perhaps, 25, in an irreproachable Parisian toilet-he was still more convinced that he had not the privilege of her acquaintance, "Mr. Everest?" she queried. Mr. Everest bowed. "Pray. take a eeat, madam." "No," she said, "I have come to quarrel ■with you, and I don't sit down in the houses of my enemies." "To quarrel with me." His eyebrows went up. The thought to him tbat his visi- tor was not in her right micd. "Yes. Perhaps I had better explain my- self at once. I am the author of 'Foot- Mr. Everest, standing perforce because she would, pulled his mt, while the fair etr&nge>r tapped iier 2so. 5 shoe on the carpet with impatience, and looked p-itchforke and daggers.

GQrry. May I ask how you found out I was the culprit?" Oh, by aocid-ent. It's a long story and unimportant, since you dont deny the imputation. Xow, Mr. Everest, I know it is very impertinent of me, a stranger, to come to your private addrese and worry you. I am doing a very unusual thing, I am afraid, and Mrs. Grundy would be horrified. But fools rash in,' you know, and wflows are privileged. You must have a little patience with me, because for the firrt time her lips relaxed, and she smiled a iittie smile that waz sweetness itseli-" well, just because I am a woman and you're a gentle- man. Acknowledge the truth, now on your honour. Don't you think you were un- necessarily harsh to my poor little literary effort?" N o," he said bluntly; "I always give my true opinion of things, and I consider your book Bad many fauns." "Of course, I admit that there are faults, but upon one or two points in your criticism I cannot agree with you. I should very much like to d^sexsss them with you, may 1?" Certainly." His mouth was twitching under his heavy moustache. But don't you think, pending the verdict, that you had better sit down? You will be fatigued. If you permit me to wheel this armchair nearer the lire for you—eo." Having carefully arranged it so that she ehould face the light, lle coated hiimeeif opposite heT. "I should very much like to know," she said, "what you think of my coming here." I think you are plucky-yes, and reck- lessly unconventional." "Candid, at any rate. And I like that." She looked up. "Now for the first indictment on the list, Mr. Everest. You accuse me of improbability. I deny it." His manner bordered on pre-cccupation. In tlruth he waa thinking what wonderful lashes ehe had, and how becoming a flush of excite- ment could be to a clear, pale skin. "You assert," she continued warmly, "that it is ridiculous to sappoee that a man and woman of the world could fail in love at nrst sight, as I make my hero and heroine do. and that such proceedings are limited to boys and girls in their teens and the pages of penny fiction. I should have thoaght that yon would have shown wider sympat-hies." "Then you really believe that adult, sen- sible people conceive sneh abrupt attach- ment ?" "I am convinced that it Laippena fre- quently. "Ob, oome; not frequently." "Well, someftimes," she amended. "I could give you a dozen instances." He lacked the heart to argue with her. It would have been like breaking a butterfly on a wheel. "Well. suppose we let that slide for the moment, and proceed to indictment number two. What other phrase of mine do you take exception to?" "You raid tha.t I had not the remotest idea of corus-truct-ion. and that Foot Id gilts' was evidently a specimen of that objectionable class of fiction wMch you regretted to see was growing po prevalent— the amateur novel, bora of vanity and a lack of wholesome occupation." Her voice died away with a tremor. He had only stated the truth, l>at that fa-at did not preveat him from feeling as if he had committed a peculiarly brutal murder, and the ghort of the rk-tim had come to arraign him before all the people whose opinions he jilted most.

When the refreshments came, accompanied by wonderful sweetmeats, she asked permission to poor it out for him with oIL winning gTaciomsness which charmed him. It afforded him an odd sense of pleasure. too. to see hor white fingers moving about I the china. He was unaccustomed to the presence of women in his home. With the Japanese table between them. they chatted for awhile, and then the clock on the mantelpiece struck six. She rose, with a pretty gesture of dismay, like a seoond i Cinderella: Do you know that I have been a whole hour wasting your valuable time." I thought it had been ten minutes," he answered, "and the pleaeantest time of my life. Very pretty," she said, blushing faintly. And in return for it let me tell you my Address is on my card, and that my 'day is Thursday. ALso, I mnst thank you very aeartily for your kindness and courtesy to in impertinent intruder.

"That the conduct of your hero lid leroine was not improbable at all." Their eyes met- The woman's dropped, elf-conscious, pleased. Yon really mean that?" "Cn my soul, I do." The most delicious softness was in her voice. "It makes me so proud and happy to think I have convinced you." 3 1 -moothed a There was a silence. She smoothed a wrinkle in her suede glove. He twisted a button on -his coat. Then she aroused her- self, with a little laugh, and extended her hnd. Well. good-bye, and once more, thank you. He pressed her fingers ever so lightly. Not good-bye," he murmured. An revoir."

« FATHER OF THE ROAD Tioi-d George Sanger, "the Father of the Road," yesteTlay took an affectionate fare- well of his brother showmen at the annual meeting of the Showmen's Guild, of which he hae been president for eighteen years.

There wa-s a time when they were ramily not 90 good as Qiey were at the present time in regard to morals, character, and integrity; but these were uark days, which they had left bwhtad.

Mr. Smith, who is fond of a joke, said to his wife the other day: I have just heard of a most remarkable accident to a bricklayer's labourer. Do you know that only yesterday, one slipped off a forty-foot ladder and was not hurt in the slightest degree?" "I.rhat sounds almost miraculous," said Mrs. Smith.

WELSH TEAM TO MEET SCOTLAND
WELSH TEAM TO MEET SCOTLAND I As was announced in a Special Pink Edition of ifoe Evening Express" last night, the Welsh team to oppose Scotland at Swansea on February 1 wa? scleo?ed at Cardiff on Wednc?ey evenin as follows; Back: *11. B. WinSeli (Cardiff). Three-quarter backs: *It. A. Gibbs (Cardiff. *W. Trew (Swanf^ea). *E. T. Gabe (Oardiff). *J. T, Williams (Cardiff). Half-backs: •T. II. Vile (Newport). F. Bush (Cardiff). Forwards: *W. ,Neil' (Ca.-diff). *C. If. Pritchard (Newport). *G. Travers (Pill Harriers). *J. Brown (Cardiil). A. F. Harding (London Welsh). *W. H. Dowell (Newport). G. Hayward (Swan.-ea). *J. Watts (Lianeiiy). Ciienotes old international.) Reserves: Back, J. Bancroft (Swansea); three-quarters, J. H. Evans ard J. P. Jones (centres), and H. T. Ma-d.docks and F. Lewie (wings); half-backs, OVJen to Yile, if Bush unable to play Owen and Jones; forwards, J. Webb (AbertiUery), R. Thomas (Mountain Ash), and F. G. Jenkins (Newport). "Forwards" Comments Once again the selection of the Weigh team fits in with pit.blie approval, the one change :'1. the pack having been more or less gene ly anticipated. llayw?-rd is such a good forward thai he could not very well be kept oat of the side, but his preference over Webb isrug"g«E*ts the of the scrimmaging I, powers of the '?e??h pack being we?en-ed. w. A?rtiilery m&n is a scrimmager pure and sinaitiJe, without any pretensions to clever- ness in the op-cra, and against Scotland, more than one of the other two countries, the man who can a-zsd will do his honest share of work in the tight is the type of forward wanted. It would net bo fair to cast any suspicion upon the Swansea recruit as a scrimmager, but the general impression is that his fre- lucnt appearance in the three-quarter line this season would not tend to sharpen his appetite for the gruelling work the forwards have to go through, when opposed to the stalwarts of Scctia. b. the first g3,me of this season between Cardiff and Swansea Hay-ward played a remarkably fine game. In fact, he was the bestr forward on the field that day, and, taking all in ail, I have no regrete that the change has been made. Hayward can scrim- ill.3.ge if he likes, and for his own reputation's sakei it is only natural that he will "like' in his flretr. international match. The Scottish team has yet to be chosen in its entirety. At least, the names of the fif- teen players have yet to be published. The Scottish Union Select-OTS have this seascn adopted the extraordinary p-rocedure of pick- ing the full-back, half-backs, and forwards but not the three-quarters. On account of his injury, Duncan M'Gregor is not likely tc be in the running, but with this seasonY Scottish embarrassment of riches there ought to be no serious difficulty in filling his place 'Scotland will miss Simeon and Monro at half-back, and though I have not yet seei their successors, I cannot bring myself round to tbo belief that they will be equal to the two gresit players n-.ed Even in the Land o' Cakes Simsons and Monroe are not pro- du-coo every reason. I how to say something more about the two teams in Saturday's Football Express," and what I have already written will suffice for the moment. THIRD INTERNATIONAL At a meeting of the oouncil of the Welsh Football Association at Wrexham on Wed- nesday it was resolved to play the Wales v. Ireland match at Afcerdare on April 11. Mr. George Williams (Cardiff) was appointed 1 vice-president of the association, in place of Mr. George Mercer (Cardiff) resigned. The Australian Tour Sergeant Fred Smith, the Cardiff forward, has received an invitation to become 000 of the twenty-eight British players who wili tour Australia and New Zealand during thc- coming summer.

Inquest on a Skeleton.
Inquest on a Skeleton. THE MILfORD HAVEN GORSE MYSTERY Mr. Herbert Price held an inquest at Gilford Haven on Wednesday on the skeleton found in the gorse near Hubberston Fort on Sunday, supposed to be that of Sergeants instructor John Stafford, Royal Garrison Artillery, who was missing some six years ago. Police sergeant Evans produced the remnants of a uniform and a razor he found open near the body, also a silver watch and chain, bearing the inscription, s,amuel, ITanchester, No. 125,752, and a field service cap bearing the number 81,508. Thomas Wetherall, now a labourer, living at Llanstadwell, but until two yeara ago sergeant in the Pembrokeshire Militia Royal Garrison Artillery, said that he knew Stafford. They were at Hubberston Fort together in June, 1902. Early on June 21 that year he saw Stafford dripping wet, and he told witness that he had fallen into the sea. Soon afterwards he was missing, and was never seen again. Sergeant Gardiner, Royal Garrison Artil- lery, who saw Stafford at the same time as the last witness, and heard him say that he had fallen into the sea, eaid that Stafford borrowed a razor, saying that he wanted to shave. He was never seen again. Stafford was queer in manner, and had been drink- ing heavily for two or three days. The regimental records showed that he was 29. and a native of Leicester, where his mother was living. The mother sent the warranty of the watch, which tallied with the watch found on the body. The Llanelly police reported that an old soldier had called there, and said that he lent Stafford a razor in 1902, and claimed that found as his property if the number was 307. That found by the deceased was so rusty that the number could not be read. Dr. Griffith eaid that the skeleton was complete, save certain small finger bones. It was impossible to say the cause of death. .as no flesh remained. The jury returned a verdict that the body was that of Sergeant-instructor John Staf- ford. found dead.
£ 150 DAMAGES FOR SLANDER…
£ 150 DAMAGES FOR SLANDER i I Baker and Grocer's Wife Mr. Justice Bncknill and a speoial jury were engaged a-t Somerset Assizes at Tannton on Tuesday and the whole of yes- terday hearing an action for slander brought by Mrs. Ida CiiltlinioTe, wife of a wholesaJe and retail grocer and provision merchant, of Frome, against Frank James Barter, a baker in the same town. Mrs. Cullimore alleged that while she was assisting in the management of her hus- band's business Barter came to the door of the shop on various occasions and shouted a series of slanders with regard to her moral character in the presence of her sons and other people, and also applied an oppro- brious epithet to her children. Barter sought to show, with a view to mitigation of damages, that he had received provocation. He stated that at the Somer- set Quarter Sessions in January, 1901, he was sentenced to four yeam, penal servitude for having received goods the property of Mr. Cullimore, well knowing the same to have been stolen. He alleged that Mrs. Cullimore posted in her husband's shop window a telegram announcing the conviction and sentence; that while he was se-n-ing his sen- tence she caHed after his children, There go the gaol-bred brate," and that she said to one of his wife's customers that she would be afraid to buy her broad of the Barters, as they might put poison in At. The jury gave a verdict for Mrs. Culli- more for £150 with costs. Judgment accordingly.
I DRUCE WITNESS'S -CONDITION
I DRUCE WITNESS'S CONDITION I Miss Robinson Reported to be Mentally Afflicted Mias Robinson, who is tender arrest on a charge of perjury in connection with the evidence She gave in the recent Druce prose- cution, is reported to be in a serious mental condition. The blow of the accusation made against her," said a friend who has visited her, eeems to have unhinged her mind. She strongly protested her innocence, but her statements to me were rambling and inco- herent. Several times during our interview she put her hands to her head as if in mental agony, and cried like a child. She is taking little or no food, and altogether I dh not think she is in a fit state to undergo a trial." Mir. Edmund Kimber, her solicitor, had an interview with Miss Robinson at Holloway yesterday, but her condition is such, it is said, that she was ttnable to give any in- structions as to her defence
