DOCTORS & POOR
DOCTORS & POOR SAID TO WANT FEES IN ADVANCE. Surprising Pe narthSIL-ory I A surprising statement reg-arding the alleged boycotting1 of poor people unable to pa.-y ready money for medical attention by doctors of Peaarth. was made in a letter which was read at the meeting' of the Cardiff Board of Guardians this afternoon. The writer is Dr. T. F. Roohe, the Poor-law medical officer for the Pemarth and Dinas Powis district. The letter, dated March 24, was as follows:- I beg to inform the board of a consider- a.Me increase in the number of poor persons now applying to me for parochial medical attendance. It is the outcome of a system adopted by the combined junior medical profession at Pena-rtk of jointly" black- listing" their debtors and boyeat-t-ing them I am told that there are from 600 to 700 poor families already on the list. These cannot get a visit from a local d-octor with- out first producing 3s. &d., and it is part of the system that if in the first visit the case its likely to overtax the 'patient's capa- bility to keep on finding ready money the 3s. 6d. is to be handed back and the case declined altogether. When many of these persons are ill they are unprepared with a fee, or a series them, fail to get a doctcr, and are driven to fail back on me as the Poor-law medical officer. I know by experience that if I refuse them also the only move left to them is to apply to the relieving officer, or overseer of the poor, for a medical relief order, which he dare not refuse in the face of ill- ness, no money, and no credit. Rather than undertake the obligations which an official order entails, and the burden of reporting- on all these oases weekly, I have been giving them the attendance they require without the intervention of the relieving officer. The number of applicants is increasing, as it is becoming known that I am available free, and I am now seeking the advice of the board as to what I had better do in the matter in the future. The following are a few illustrative cases. (1). Mrs. Ellis, of Llandough, failed to engage a Penaj-th doctor to attend her in her expected accouchement without 14 4s. in advance. She offered me one and a half guineas cash down to undertake her case, but I do not now accept engagements that may take me to Penarth at night, outside of thoee connected with my public appoint- ments. The result was an appeal to the board, who kindly granted her my services free, and her other- expenses on loan. (2). Mrs. Hurley, 19, Charlotte-street, applied for attendance for a ohild with a broken log. I asked her to send for her usual medioal attendant. I soon had a message from Mr. Williams, overseer of the poor for Cogan, that he was a.bout to give an order, whereupon I attended without order. Soon after this Mrs. Hurley was confined, and the registered midwife sent for me. (3). Mrs. Selby, 78, Salop-street, having tried elsewhere first, eent for me on the 20th inst. I refused, and she paid another doctor for attendance on same evening, and again on the 22nd inst. As I expected, on the morning of the 23rct I had a medical relief order. Her husband's wages for four weeks prior to this were £ 1 6s. 7d., XI Is. 8d.. £ 1 2s. 9d., and 17s. lOd. (1). I was vaccinating a baby at 12, Dock- road, on the 22nd inst., and met another doctor in the house. A different doctor had attended the patient in question the previous day or days, and evidently the ready money was by then exhausted, for I was f-ormr.-lly introduced as the Poor-law medical officer. The Chairman (Canon Buckley): Dr. Roche has evidently, in the kindness of his heart-, brought it all upon himself. He ought to have asked for an order from the relieving officer in ea-ch case. He ought, to ask for orders from the relieving officers. In that case he would not have any more trouble than the medical officers in other parts of the union. I think it is a matter for the relief committee. (Hear, hear.) Mr. J. J. Ames: I think it is necessary to send it down to the relief committee, if he makes charges against other doctors and reflects on the relieving omcerF. The Rev. E. T. Davies (Penaxth): There is a combination among doctors to exolude those who have not paid them before. It was resolved to refer the matter to the relief committee.
CHEAP AND GOODI
CHEAP AND GOOD I How Cardiff Paupers Fare I The inmates of the Cardiff Workhouse get better food than half the working men out- ;id-e that institution. This statement was made at the meeting of the Cardiff Guardians tfais afternoon by Mr. C. W. Melhuii-h, who also referred to the charges of extravagance which had been levelled at the board. In comparison with over 50 unions in Wales, they were the third lowest in regard to one district and the third lowest in respect to another in the cost of food and clothing for inmates. He said this to show- ratepayers •that the guardians had their interests at heart. Their inmates cost them As. 9d. per head for food aird clothing, and the diet •thfiy provided was good. Mr. Williams (inspector) had told them that they. had studied the ratepayers J-oo much in not pro- vidin-, necessary additional accommodation. The Chairman (Canon Buckley) said he had also noticed that Cardiff was below the average for the district, and that without requiring the inmates to suffer any hard- ship. Mr. A. Good said it must be remembered that this cost of 3s. 9d. did not include cost of administration, regarding which he would like to -have some information. It was stated that the figures were not forthcoming. The Rev. E. T. Davies: Nine and eightpence per head per week.
CLAIM FOR INSURANCEI
CLAIM FOR INSURANCE I The Pioneer Life Assurance Company (Limited) were summoned at Pontypool Police-court to-day by Ernest Seymour, licensee of the Swan Inn, Abersychan, for the recovery of £ 9 9s. due on a policy on the life of Emily Jane Samuel, mother of pro- secutor's wife. Mr. W. J. Everett, Pontypool, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Frank Palleson, Swansea, defended. Mr. Everett stated that Mrs. Samuel's life was insured with the company for eighteen guineas, but, as she died within twelve months of the issue of the policy, only half that amount could be claimed. After her death notice was received from the company that they could not pay the money, as deceased's life had been refused by them on a previous occasion. A second policy was also in existence. Mrs. Samuel was examined medically shortly before her death, and her life was passed as a good average one. It was unfair and unjust for companies to accept policies and refuse to cover their liabilities after death had taken place. For the defence, Mr. Patte- fon suggested that death was accelerated by alcoholic indulgence, and called Dr. J. W. Mulligan, who stated that lie examined deceased in 1907, and reported that she had the appearance of being a drinker. The Bench made an award for the plaintiff for £ 9 9s. and £ 2 2s. costs.

.SCENE AT ASSIZES I
SCENE AT ASSIZES Witness and Counsel PAINTER'S CLAIM FOR DAMAGES The hearing was resumed to-day in the Civil Court at Glamorgan Assizes at Car- diff (before Mr. Justice Phillimore and a special jury) of the action in which William Charles Curtis, a painter, of Nelson, sought damages from David Evan Jones, Silbrook House, Whitohurch, for malicious prosecu- tion. The plaintiff was charged with embezzle- j ment of moneys belonging to the defendant which he had collected, but was acquitted a.t the quarter sessions. Mr. Ivor Bowen (instructed by Mr. P. Sydney Simons, Mer- thyr) appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. B. Francis-Williams, K.C., and Mr. St. John Francis-Will i ams (instructed by Messrs. Gwilym James, Charles, and Davies, Merthyr) for defendant. Mr Francis-Williams briefly opened the case for the defence, and said he thought the jury would come to the conclusion that the defendant had sufficient reason in prosecu- ting the plaintiff. Mrs. Sarah John, Ferndale, who formerly lived at 32, Fox-street, Treharris, said the defendant was her landlord. When the plain- tiff took her rent-book for audit and returned a new one showing 13e. arrears, she declined to take it, as she owed nothing. Another book showing 12s. arrears was given her, but she denied owing this sum, and subsequently Curtis brought back her old book, and told her not to show the book with 12s. arrears to any one, but to pay rent on the old book. He promised to bring her back 12s. David Evan Jones, the defendant, stated that the sums which formed the subject of the the plaintiff were never handed over to him by Curtis. In cross-exa mination he stated that he was a married man, but Mrs. Jones did not live at Whitchurch. Witness denied destroying the pocket-book »he carried in which inter- mediate jmyments made by Curtis during the week were entered. It was partly torn up and thrown on one side. At the quarter sessions he said the diary was a Welsh Methodist diary. Mr. Ivor Bowen: But this pocket-book is not a Welsh Methodist "dyddiadur." Witness: Well, I bought it from the men who sell the Methodist book in Merthyr. (Laughter.) Continuing, he said he began to suspect Curtis in November, and latterly gave notice to him through his wife to quit his service He admitted that there were some arrears of rent. but not half of what was reported. He had never quarrelled with Mrs. Curtis, his housekeeper, until he told her about the deficiency. Mr. Bowen: Were you always in the rela- ¡ tion of master and servant and nothing more. Witness: Nothing more. At the polioe-station did you go to her and state that you would stop proceedings if a certain course were taken?—That's as big an untruth as you could speak. You were going to provide £ 3,000 for her under a will?—That is many years ago, and it is no business of yours to raise it. Why were you going to make provision for her for £3,000 ?-8he reckoned to stop single as long as she lived, and I Eaid, "If you be a good girl I will handsomely reward you." Have you ever brought false charges against anybody before in a court and given evidence?—-Yes, onoe-but it was a bona-fide case. His Lordship: Did you bring a false charge against your present wife? Witness: Yes, my lord. It was against my wife for bigamy. Mr. Bowen: Did you give evidence on oath i:i London at the Divorce Court against your I present wife? Witness: Yes, of course, I did. Witness Excited Mr. Bowen: Did you also give evidence against a perfectly respectable Witness (excitedly): What are you trying —to blackmail me. The Judge: I think a great deal of indig- nation on your part is justified, but try and answer calmly. I suppose there was a co- respondent? Witness: Yes. His Lordship: And vou were not believed, and they were acquitted? Witness: Yes, hut it was wrong. iiir. Bowen: Did you give evidence in that ca-se against a medical ina,n-a perfectly res- pectable and innocent man? Witness: How do you know he was a respectable man? How can you prove it? (Laughter.) Re-examined by Mr. B. Francis-Williams, witness said his wife had confessed every word about the matter in question to some- body and then denied it. His Lordship having summed up the jury, returned a verdict for the defendant with costs. 4 Monday's Cause List [Before Mr. Justice Phillimore and a Special Jury.) Harries v. Jenkins and Matthews.—Con- spiracy libel and slander (part heard).
ELECTION SEQUEL I ..I
ELECTION SEQUEL I SWANSEA SLANDER SUIT A sequel to the famous Morriston munici- pal election petition was heard to-day at the Glamorgan Assizes at Cardiff (before Mr. Justice Phillimore and a special jury), when Councillor David Harris brought an action against Councillor David Jenkins and Alder- man David Matthews for damages for con- spiracy, libel, and slander. All the parties are members of the Swan- sea Corporation, and the action arose out of statements published, made, and alleged at the last November election, when Mr T. R. Harris, brother of the plaintiff, opposed the return of Councillor David Jenkins. Counsel for the plaintiff were Mr. B. Frajncis- Williams, K.C., Mr. John Sankey, and Lord Tiverton (instructed by Mr. Frank Patteson, Swansea); for the defendant Matthews, Mr. J. A. Foote, K.C., and Mr. Villiers Meagher; and for the defendant Jenkins Mr. Marshall Hall, M.C., M.P., and Mr. Llewelyn William?, M.P. The instructing solicitors for the defence were Messrs. R. G. Edwards and Bull, Swansea. Mr. B. Francis-Williams in opening the case stated that the plaintiff lived at Morris- ton, and was by profession an accountant. the defendant Jenkins was a grocer, also living at Morriston, and the defen- dant Matthews was a metal broker, living at Morriston. In 1906 the plaintiff and Mr. Matthews were candidates for the mayoralty of Swansea, when the former was elected bv 27 votes to 10. The d-efoiidant Mr. Matthews appeared to have resented his defeat, and entertained a very bitter feeling about it. In 1908 Mr. David Jenkins retired by rota- tion from the council, and offered himself for re-election. Mr. F. It. Harris, a solicitor in Swansea, and a, younger brother of David Harris. offered himself as a candidate in opposition to Mr. Jenkins. As soon as the contest began the two defendants, Matthews and Jenkins, uttered with regard to the plaintiff a series of very wicked slanders. They were not content with doing that, but they afterwards published libels which held Mr. Harris as being a contemptible character, as being a person who used his position in the county council to get things foi-liimself and family. They" charged him I (Proceeding.)

Training Colleges I N.U.T. COUNTY MEETING AT CARDIFF I At a council meeting of the Glamorgan County Association of the Nation.al Union of Teaohere. held at Cardiff to-day, Mr. Howell Howells (Treorky) presiding, the following resolution was unanimously liasbc-,d:- From an educational point of view this meeting is altogether opposed to the Betting up of training colleges for teachers, apart from the University College, and is of opinion that some sort of connection between the training college and the uni- versity is of great importance and value to the future teachers, and to the develop- ment of education generally.
DEATHS UNDER AN/ESTHETICS

GLAMORGAN ASSIZESI -.. I
GLAMORGAN ASSIZESI I CRIMINAL COURT [Before Mr. JUSTICE BRAY.] STILL NO ANSWER. .1 The name was again called of Lewis Lan- worn (41). collier, who stands charged with burglariously entering the house of Henry Griffin, No. 3, Parkfield-place, Maindy, Llan- daff. with intent to commit a felony. There was again no answer, and it was stated that lanworn had not been seen since Monday. The recognisances of the surety were estreated, and, on the application of Air. Raymond Allen, a Bench warrant was issued for the prisoner's arrest. Not Responsibte" Hannah Prosser, a respectably-dressed, sad- faced girl, of seventeen, described as a domestic servant, was charged with breaking and entering the house of Gomer Davies and stealing two parcels of book6 and a pair of curtains at Aberdare on February 9. Mr. T. Walter Williams (instructed by Mr. J. T. Thomas, Aberdare) prosecuted. -upon- pri- soner's plea of not guilty, learned counsel said he did not propose to offer any evidence. His Lordship said the proposal was at hi. suggestion. He (the judge) had information which led him to believe that, although pOT- i;i:>ly prisoner was not insane, she was in such a state of mind as to be hardly respon- sible. No evidence being offered, perhaps the jury would be good enough to say that the prisoner was not guilty. This the jury did, and his Lordship. addressing prisoner, said: "I understand you are willing to go back to the home where you have been. You must control yourself, and not allow yourself to be persuaded by other people." The girl on being discharged burst into a flood of tears, and withdrew in charge of a female warder. German Gets 18 Months Ernest Hans Davidson im, commissi agent, flaxen-haired and with an aquiline nose, was charged on four counts. The first, was to the effect that, being entrusted with £ 10 by John Ernest West for a specific purpose, he fraudulently OOIlíVerted the same to his own use between December 24 and January 1 at Cardiff. The other three indict- ments charged Davidson with obtaining £ 10 from Charles Wickham, a similar sum from Erneet Maidment, and £2.0 from John Pere- grine by false pretences, also at Cardiff. Mr. Lovat-Fraser (instructed by Messrs. Harold Lloyd and Cross) prosecuted. Learned counsel's "statement concerning the prisoner was somewhat remarkable. He said Davidson was a German, and in October last carried on business as a. retail grocer at Newport. At the beginning of November the bailiffs entered into possession, and prisoner was sold up. In December he t.cok two small rooms in Frederick-street, Cardiu, at a rental of 10s. a week, and on the windows of these rooms were words, "Wholesale grocer." In December prisoner inserted an advertise- ment in a local nowsipaper for a traveller. As a result there were five applicants. Pri- soner's modus operandi was the sa.me in each case. Taking Maidment's case, the learned counsel said prisoner represented himself to be in the wholesale trade, with a warehouse a-nd several retail shops in Car- diff and Bristol, and a warehouse at Cardiff Docks, all of which statements were untrue. Maidment was engaged at a salary of 308. 'a" week, with commission and expenses. Prisoner broaohed the ?abject of a gtza.m, -nteo, whereupon offered a guarantee bond. Davidson objected, saying he had had trouble with former employes, and must have cash security. Finally Miaid- ment agreed to give £ 10 security, and the two went to the office of Mr. Tom John (solicitor), where the £10 was ha.nded over. He (Maidmen,t) had no accounts to collect, and no genuine business was carried on the orders received never being executed. r, or the £10 Maidment received JE5 5s. in wages. Ernest Maidmewt corroborated.. stating that prisoner confided to him that lie was about to embark on the "German import trade," and, as a fact, he negotiated for the acquisition as a warehouse of 31, Bute-road, ajiu witness consulted Messrs. Hern and Pertwee (auctioneers) on several occasions. Prisoner (so he said) had agreed to take the premises. John Francis West (Splott-road) said prisoner, on engag-in,g him as a traveller, represented that his business and turnover were rapidly increasing. On January 12 wit- ness claimed the return of the £ 10 he had paid. Prisoner made an appointment for the same night, which he did not keep. Charles Wickham, of Jfopkinstown, and John Peregrine, Na-ntymoel, gave similar evidence. John Rice Evans (National Provincial Bank) stated that prisoner opened an account on December 15, and deposited alto- gether £ 20 19s., and in the middle of January £ 20 16s. was withdrawn, leaving a balance of 3s. Prisoner gave vidence in his own behalf, and in an address to the jury said he had never before been in trouble during the eleven years he had been in the country. He denied now any intention to defraud. Prisoner was found guilty and sentenced to eighteen months. Italian Man and Wife I Mascenzo Lorentio (43), hawker, was charged with wouriding his wife, Mary Lorentio, with intent, on November 12, at Cardiff. The parties are Italians, and have been living in Christ ina-street. Mr. J. Bowen Davies (instructed by Mr. A. Frank Hill) was for the prosecutrix; Lord Tiverton (instructed by Mr. J. II. Morgan) defended. Prosecutrix, who carried in her arms a baby, showed a disposition to put the bE«:t possible construction upon her husband's conduct, the Judge remarking that her memory "seemed to be improving very rapidly." (A laufrh.) It was alleged that on the day in question, prisoner struck his wife with his fist and caused her to fall twice, and that ho afterwards renewed the attack. In the result, the lower part of the lady's nose was left hanging, and the cavity was exposed. In prisoner's possession a knife was found, but whether the wound was inflicted by the knifa could not be said for certain. Dr. W. G. Williams, who attended to the injury at Bute-street Police-station, proved that prosecutrix had lost a quantity of blood. He also expressed the view that the wound might have been caused by a fall, as suggested by Signora Lorentio, on the chest- nut stove (produced). But this, he added, was very improba.ble. Inspector Ben Davies, who effected pri- soner's arrest, said he bad only just now hoard for the first time about the theory of the stovo. liorentio was foumd guilty, but not of using a knife. Inspector Ben Davies described him as a steady man, and a hard worker. This was his first offence, and his Lordship, in passing sentence of fourteen days, said he thought a short sentence would be more effective than a long sentence in making the relation- ship bather between husband and wife.

170,000 PURCHASE ? Risca Council and Gas and Water At an ordinary meeting of the Western (Monmouthshire) Water and Fas Company, held at Newport to-day, Mr. J.

"CAME CRYING TO HER."I
"CAME CRYING TO HER." I At Newport to-day John Charles Jones, Risca, was summon-ed by his wife, Margaret Jane Jones, for cruelty, and she asked for a separation order. Complainant said an order was granted in that court on January 30, she to have the custody of the children, and the defendant to contribute 16s. per week. Within a few days of that order being made defendant came orying to her, and begged her to come back and live with him. She took pity on him. and did so, but he had since threatened to take her life. The Bench made the same order as before, for 16s. per week.

FIREGUARDS NEED. -0
FIREGUARDS NEED. -0 Coroner Gives Advice SAD NEWPORT BURNINC FATALITY Before taking any evidence at the inquest of Rosina Jeffreys (7), 7, Agincourt-street, who was fatally burned on Thursday night, the Newport Coroner (Mr. Lyndon Moore) to-day drew attention to the new act which would come into operation in a few days. He said that at times portions o £ the new Act which were revelant to these cases, would have to be considered by coroners and their juries. He desired to draw attention and to warn parents about the Act, one section of which dealt with burning cases, and another with cases of suffocation of children in bed. Section 15 of Part II. provided tha,t if any person over sixteen having the custody, charge, or cs-re of a child under seven allowed a child to be in any room with an unprotected fire without taking reasonable precautions against the ri*?k, and the child was killed or suffered serious injury that per- would be liable on summary convictio,n to a fine not exc-eeding £ 10. Such person would, nevertheless, be liable to be proceeded against by indictment. This Act caane into j (force in five days, and it behoved all j parents to provide proper fireguards at their homes. If they were too poor to provide them, he thought some means would be obtained by which fireguards would be provided. On the subject of suffocation of children Section 13 of Part II of the Act provided that if all infant under three years of age was suffocated while in bed with some other persons over sixteen, and it was proved that that other person was at the time of going to bed under the influence of drink, that person would be deemed to have neglected the child. He had, in common with other coroners, received a letter from the Home Office saying that the need 01 the new statutory provisions as to the overlaying of infants and the exposing of children to the risk of burning had been often urged on the Home Office by coroners, and the Secretary of Statoe hoped that the inclusion of these sections in the Children's Act would have a useful effect by impressing upon the public mind the danger of the practices referred to. The evidence showed that tho parents were out at the time of the accident. Mrs. Jeffreys wos at work, and Mr. Jeffreys, who was a labourer, at present out of employment, had gone to meet her. The screams of the chil- dren attracted neighbours, who did every- thing in their power to assist them, aud speedily took the little victim to the hos pital, but she died on the way. Mary Pugsley, a little girl of eight, cousin of the deceased, said she went into the house, and saw deceased standing on the fender in front of an open fire. She was standing on her tip-toes, looking for a black- lead on the mantelpiece. Her pinafore went against the fire, and became ignited. There was no guard in front of the fire. Mrs. Mary Pugsley, an aunt of the deceased, said she went to the house and found the child burning. In answer to the coroner, she said she believed most of the child's clothing was flannelette. Dr. N. C. Scott, who pronounced life extinct on arrival at the hospital, returned his fee of 21s. to the parents. Tho jury returned a verdict of "Death from shock, following burns."
Unhappy Married LifeI .
Unhappy Married Life I ALLEGATIONS IN A SEPARATION CASE I A sad story of unhappy married life was unfolded at Pontypool Police-court to-day, when James George, a coIliery. baulier, who at present lives in Chapel-laue, Pontypool, was summoned by his wifa, Elizabeth A. George, who applied for a separation order on the ground of desertion, persistent cruelty, and neglc-ct. Mr. Harold Saunders, Pontypool, appeared for the aPTllicant,. and Mr. W. J. Everett, Pontypool, defended. Mr. Saunders stated that a separation order was granted in Febrraary, 1903, but in April Mrs. George returned to her husband. After two years tronble again commenced, a.nd in 1307 he beat her, and, consequently a child was prematurely born, living only a few days. Since July, 1907, defendant ha.d continually ill-treated her. On September 6 cf last year he assaulted her so badly that he broke one of her fingers. On October 3 she attempted to get him out of a street fight, and he abused her and beat her and stayed out all night. On November 30 defen- dant beat her, threw a kettle at her, and threatened to brealk her jaw. Several times be Cave Her Dinner to the Do I and on January 15 of the present year he made a most serious accusation against her. On January 27 she left him again because he had burned her arm with a hot, poker, and told her that if she WU6 there when he came back he would kill her. Mrs. George corroborated her statement in detail, and, cross-exairained, denied the allega- tions of misconduct. several witnesses were called to prove cruelty on the part of defendant, whilst medioal evidence was also given. Augustus L'ong a carnenter, of Common Coedypaen, said on one occasion he saw Mrs. George coming downstairs in a certain public-house in Pontypool, being followed by a man. The defendant admitted striking his wife or. cue occasion, but stated it was after she had thrown a brick at him, which cut his face and head open. The Bench granted a separation and allowed Mrs. George 18s. a week, defendant being also ordered to pay £ 3 3s. costs.
"No Wedding at All" -I
"No Wedding at All" POSTMAN POET'S LOVE AFFAIRS I love you more than I can tell, and would risk my life for you." So wrote Mr. Stanley Dick, postman, of Rigngake, to Mice Eni-ma. Elizabeth Faraee, dressmaker, of the same district And yet—so it was stated in the King's Bench Court II. yesterday, when Miss Fernee sued him for breach of promise— he was annoyed when she asked him to provide three wedding oo,rria,get; to take their guest.s to church. "It is no great difference from your hortse to All Saints' Mr. Dick had obeerved. "lam a. Postman, and I will walk, by way of protest." So they fell out, and there was no wedding at all. "What Cheer!" "The next time I met him," said Miss Fernee, a pretty and self-poe-sessed young woman, "he greeted me with 'What cheer!' Wasn't that a vulgar remark to make to his young lady?" But that wasn't the worst, according to Miss Fernee. He asked for his freedom." She told him that he would have plenty of freedom when they were married; and then, before "running away like the coward that he was," he threatened to smack me in the face." And yet the uMerer of such a phrase as "What cheer!" had written, as counsel pointed out, some high-souled, poetic love- letters. For example: My dear Eon,—I was looking forward so mllch to a night out with you, to say nothing of the enjoyment of the opera. This life is full of disappointments, so we must take full advantage of the oppor- tunities when they offer. Sometimes Mr. Dick quoted Shakspeare, as instanced by: I stood between my duty to you and selfishness. Before me appeared these words: To thine own self be true, And it must follow as the night the day Thou canst not then be falise to any man. The Proposal Scene He also wrote of "giving his leisure to the service of his love," and of "skimming awheel with her through the moonlight." In the course of her narrative of their two years' courtship, which included the purchase of a wedding ring and publication of the banns. Mist Fernee mentioned the proposal scene. "I love you. Ca,n you ever like me?" the poet-postman had said. "What a strangle remark," commented the witness, "to be made by a gentleman to a young lady he had just met." But within a week she had confessed to a liking, and then, she added pathetically, he made her love him. In cross-examination she was asked whether she had not been jilted before, and whether she had said that the trousseau prepared for wedding No. 1 would do for wedding No. 2. I did not," she replied, and I think it is very rude of you to ask such questions." She denied that she had said: If there are no wedding carriages there shall be no wed- ding." The jury awarded X36 damages.

The National MuseumI
The National Museum SCHEME FOR A COMPLETE BUILDINC A meeting of the council of the National Museum of Wales was held at the City-hall, Cardiff, to-day, when Sir Alfred Thomas, M.P., presided, amongst the large gathering present being Mrs. Cadwa-lladr Davies, Sir Ivor Herbert, M.P., Mr. William Jones, M.P., Mr. J. Eidon Bankes, K.C., the Lord Mayor of Cardiff (Alderman Lewis Morgan), Mr. Goscombe John, R.A., Mr. Vincent Evans, Mr. Harold Hughes Bangor), and Dr. William Williams (Montgomerysliire). Mr. William Jones, M.P., presented the minutes of the general purposes and build-! ing committee, and laid a draft scheme before the meeting for the accommodation i that will be required at the new national building in Ca.thays Park. The draft was not considered in detail, but was referred back to the committee, with instructions to draw up a scheme for a complete building, a part of which could be erected at once, and to draw up instruc- tions which can be placed in the hands of architects. The draft lease for 999 years of the site fr,om the corporation was approved. The report of the finance committee vras presented by Sir Ivor Herbert. It stated that the council had given an assurance that it was intended to open the National Museum on Sundays, and thereby had become entitled to a second sum of L3,000 from the executors of the late James Pyke Thompson. It also stated that £ 2,000 had been placed in the estimates for the current year by the Government for the National Museum main- tenance account. At the meeting of the Court of Gove-rnorr,, held later, Alderman Illtyd Thomas was appointed a member of the council in suc- cession to Alderman W. H. Renwick. The design of the common &eal, prepared by Mr. W. Goscombe John, R.A., was submitted a ?id approved, and a statute enacting the form and design was passed. The common seal was ordered to be affixed to a document of assignment, release and indemnity, with regard to the trans- ference of the monies in the Cardiff fund, collected by Alderman .A.o.ert Hughes and the Town-clerk of Cardiff (Mr. J. L. Wneatley), on behalf of the National jiuseum.

DISESTABLISHMENT IN WALES
DISESTABLISHMENT IN WALES On Monday the Welsh Church Commission I will meet a,ga,in to further consider the draft report of the chairman (says the Lon- don "Daily News"). Lord Justice Vaughan Willia.ms having arranged to be liberated from his judicial duties during the remainder of the Hilary itt.ings-that is, for the next nine days-it, is hoped that good pro- gress will be made with the work before the Commissioners, a,lthough obviously the report cannot be ready by Easter as the Rome Secretary bad hoped. Now that the majority have come to terms with the chair- ma.n and his principal supporter, Mr. Greaves, it is believed itisa-t there will be but two reports, the chairman's being so altered as to meet the viewe of the majority; while the speciail representatives of the Church, Lord Hugh Cecil and Archdeacon Owen Evans, will submit their conclusions in a document of their own.
THE NAVAL CRISIS.I
THE NAVAL CRISIS. I Addressing a well-attended meeting in the Workmen's-hall, Ystradgynlais, the Hon. Robert Devereux referred at considerable length to the naval crisis, remarking that one very desirable result of our laying down eight battleships of the Dreadnought type would be that such a policy would in a large measure solve the problem of unemploy- ment. The more big ships we had the greater would be the demand tor coal, and, as was well known, the Navy depended largely for its coal on South Wales. Most people had come to the conclusion that it was an advantage to have a strong Navy, and that the time had arrived when it had become necessary to impress upon the I Government the danger of wobbling in that l respect a.t this critical moment. (Applause.; Other Powers were laying down a large number of ships, and unless we were careful i we should find in the course of three or four years that we could not keep up with them.

It was reported that 754 casuals had I received relief during the past fortnight, as compared with 548 in the corresponding period of last year, an increase of 206. Another lengthy discussion took place on the relief committee reports, Mr. R. J. Robinson (Newport) and Mr. J. Davies (Aberca.m) again contending that the rules recently adopted were a considerable hard- ship on poor people. Eventually, the cha,ir- man prevailed upon the board to give the new rules a fair trial.

FALL OF A LIFT. An inquest was held at the London Hospital to-day on the four men killed by the lift accident at St. Katharine's Dock on Thurs- day. Evidence was given that there was a notice prohibiting the men usi;g the lift, which is the property of the London and India Dock Company. The lift was generally used for the conveyance of merchandise. Other testimony showed that a link in the chain broke, and the coroner adjourned the inquiry to allow one of the injured to be present.

THE COAL TRADE UNREST. I
THE COAL TRADE UNREST. I The position of affairs at the Glamorgan Colliery, Llwynypia. continues to be some- what serious, and there are now over ZOO of the men idle consequent upon certain grievances in connection with two seams at the No. 2 Pit, and the prospects are that this number will be considerably increased in a day or two. Recently an arrangement was tentatively come to for the adoption of the Penygraig price-list, and it is alleged by the men that certain customary allowances in respect of abnormal places allowed at the Penygraig Pit are not given the men at the Glamorgan Colliery, with the result, it is alleged, that the men are not able to earn anything like an adequate wage. It is stated that the management, consequent upon the present position of affairs, contemplate cics- i iDg up the whole of the district, in which event, some additional two hundred men at least will be rendered idle.

The day and time of the ceremony had been kept secret, and, consequently, there were very few people watching it.

The body, i encased in an elm coffin, with brass mount- ings, and the inscription on the breast-plate, John Smith, died March 21st. 1909, aged 44 yeaTs," was taken from the mortuary to 53, North-street, where the relatives were wait- ing.

-"Peace with .Honour" I
"Peace with Honour" I AUSTRIA-HUNGARY'S ATTITUDE j Vienna, Friday.—The Lower House of the Reichsra.th to-day discussed the Socialist urgency motion calling upon the Govern- ment to exerciso its influence in favour of peace. Baron Von Bienerth (Premier), in rep-ly, said ail the competent elements of the Monarchy had been working, and were still working without cessation, for the mainten- ance of peace. Throughout the Servian affair Austria-Hungary's attitude had been one constant demonstration in favour of peace. Austria-Hungary had carefully considered all the claims put forward since the beginning of the crisis. He maintained that the rights of Servia had not been violated in the slightest. Without allowing themselves to be I put about, the Government had always pre- served an a.ttitude of tranquility, and had manifested extreme forbearance through all vicissitudffo, with firm confidence in th2:.r strngth. "There is, however," continued the Premier, an aotual limit to this forbearance, for ourselves as for every State. So long as it is compatible with the dignity of the S-tate and the security of c.ur territory we shall do everything to preserve for the peoples of Austria-Hungary the precious fliefits of peace. Shoud that become impossible contrary to our wishes, and should that which we all Vish to avoid become necessary (to appeal to the patriotism of the peoples of Austria-Hungary), the Government is firmly oonvinced this appeal will find an enthusiastic echo amcng rhtmbers of the Lower House of the Reioo- sta.th, the legal representativee of the Austro- Hungarian peoples." Loud cheers greeted the conclusion of the Minister's statement. The motion was adopted by an enormous majority, with a modification proposed by Dr. Ebenhoch urging the Government to con- tiiiue its efforts lor the maintenance of peace, it being naturally presumed that the prestige and interests of the Monarchy were not violated, and sending to the brave soldiers performing their difficult duties on the frontier the sympathies of the Lower House of the Reichsrath. The Minister of Commerce, who also spoke, said Austria-Hungary was doing eTerything with the object of maintaining peace, but her honour and right must remain intaot. i The calm and correct procedure of Austria- Hungary had been supported by her allies, and was recognised as such by a.ll the great Powers, a fact which permitted the hope that peace, which everybody deeirad, would be maintained- Austria's Recom mendations Budapest, Saturday.—The "Pester Lloyd" says that the reply of the British Govern- ment concerning the new formula proposed by Austria-Hungary for recommendations to be made by the Powers to Servia is expected to-morrow, and that, if an agreement is reached in the matter, Austria-Hungary will await the effect of the Powers' action in the Servian capital. If, however, the British cemmunication should show that an agree- ment is not- yet possible, Austria-Hungary, uninfluenced by the eventual continuance of negotiations with the Powers, will instruct Count Forgach, the Austro-Hungarian Minister, to Servia to take steps in Belgrade, because, otherwise, it would be possible for the Powers by protracting negotiations regarding a collective step ast Belgrade, to impede independ.etnt action, on the part of Austria-Hungary. A Settlement in View Bel grade, Saturday. In the hig-hest diplomatic circles here the view is expressed that the political situation has very much improved, and it is considered certain that the Servian Government will accept in every respect the Powers' sugg-estions. It is believed that the entire dispute will be settled before the end of the month.

DOGS IN LUXURYI
DOGS IN LUXURY I In the, really smart circle of Parisian Society the day when the dog was regarded as a mere house pet is passing. The animal's emancipation has been gradual; it began by dresfing him in Tiraided overcoats; then he was admitted to the motor-car, and now he goes to soe the "shows." At the Horse S'how on Thursday a woman was seen carrying, a tiny King Charles in a epecially^made reticule with an aperture enabling the occupant to put out his head and see what was going on. It was noted that the dog seemed to be greatly interested in the obstacle jumping e-omtsetitioiis. There is no reason why the movement t"llould not be extended and the pets be given a chance to hear Wag- ner or be thrilled by the fiddling of Von Voosey.

March 21st.—" I hare always held the ODicio!1 that DUKJ5 OF ePAETA must have a chance on evervl particle of his form. He is a really genuine long shot, much more worth backing eacn way than any of the favourites.

-BOXINC-I
BOXINC I Attell Sidesteps Welsh. "Abe won't flgtot Welsh" is the big pplaeh h-eadings the "Timee-Ietinocrat" is putting up, and they suggest that the local sports- men are thus deprived of seeing the two fastest and cleverest men in the ring to-day in action a gainst eaoh other." "Welsh," saye Attell, "is too big. Anyone else in the world at 1241b. (8st. 121b.) can oome along. Of course, this includes Driscoll. who can do the weight good and well. Attell con- siders so anyhow, for he says that Dnscoll made 1251b. (&st. 131b.) at ?ix o'clock, whioh gave him four hours to gN outside a big meal and put Se?h on his boD-()r starring bones, as the "'l'imes-Democrat" put6 it. Driscoll no Wonder. Abe Atteull, speaking of Driseoll in the New Orleans "Item," pays :—"He is no wonder. If these Eastern people think he is eo fwtthev should see Freddie Welsh in action. He can box rings round anything I've ever seen in the ring, and not half try." That is the &rst time that Attell hu '| admitted WeLh's superior devernees. — J
