THE PAUNELL COMMISSION.
THE PAUNELL COMMISSION. SIXTY-EIGHTH DAY. CONTINUATION OF SIR CHARLES RUSSELL'S ADDRESS. On the Commissioners in the Parnelt inquiry taking their seats on Wednesday Sir Clias.Kussel I continued his consideration of the casej of murder iu County Kerry. The cases of Daniel Leahy, of Skarteen, and Browne, of Castleisland, occurred at a period between the suppression of tho Land League and the formation of the National Letigue, and no connection was suggested. The sad caso of John Curtin was not agrarian, and sympathy was shown with the family by members of tho league, resolutions of condemnation being passed. 10 the case of the murder of James Pitz- tntiuricv, shot atListowet, it was Buggested by the Attorney-General tint tho alleged murderers were defended by and at the expense of the league, but the solicitor, Mr. Creagh, had no question put to him in the box poiuting to that conclusion. He now passed to I he consideration of the cise as pre- sented against tho members of Parliament, and, submitting to the court a list of 28 names, he asked was there a particle of evidence against any oneofthciu. If this were an ordinary case heshould treat lhe evidence with tho greatest contempt. The 7i»kj had put in 440 speeches, but only two of those affected the period from October, 1881, to the end of 1882. As affecting certain persoIl, charged, ttietewit3 only the evidence of tho convict Delaney, which hud been proved to bo untrust- worthy, nOlt the churgcs had the rotten foundation of the forged letters. It would be childish and ridiculous to dwell nt length on the evidence advanced ngiinst Mr. E. Harrington, Mr. Dillon, Ir. Healy, Mr. Lane, and others. The payment of II cheque to Timothy Horan during the treuurership of Mr. Kenny was at a time when the league had approached the highest point of disorgani. ion, and was the only incident con- necting the league with complicity, but tho terms in which the correspondence was couched showed it to bo an exceptional circumstance, and contrary to the whole course and tenour of the movement Dr. Kcany and Mr. Sexton would tell their lord- ships that to their knowledge not ono penny was paid at any time for the purpose of abetting crime, or screening those who had committed crime. The American branch of the case, to which lie now xildressed himself, must raise in their lord- ships' minds some very grave considerations. The story of Irish emigration was sufficient to account tor the hostility displayed by tha Irish-Americans agains'the Government of ihis country. It was the justifiable b')a,t of Mr. Parnell that he. with the assistance "f Mr. Davitt, had induced the Irish- Amertcans to combine in a movement that was constitutional and within the law. Sir Charles had not concluded when the court adjourned.
THE EFFECT OF FLOGGINGI ON…
THE EFFECT OF FLOGGING I ON CRIME. GLAMORGANSHIRE STATISTICS. I IMPORTANT LI TTER FROM MR. J. K "STEPHEN. Writing to the Times of Wednesday upon the question of the effect of flogging as a deterrent to crime, blr, J. K. Stephen, clerk of assize on the South Wales Circuit, says :— 1 observe that Mr, Uopwood appears to attach weight to statistics as evidence of the effect of punishmfnt on crime. The following facts may perhaps interest him and some others of your reader. At the Glamorganshire Assizes in August last bills were preferred against 22 prisoners for robbery with violence. In I l,ree cases no true bill was found. In right the prisoners were acquitted. The remainder of the prisoners received sentences varying from twelve io two ntotitlis' liar(i lab ur. At tll., Glamorganshire Assizes in December lust Mtepn prisoners were accused of this offence. One bill was ignored, and fourteen senten.-es of im- prisonment were i as?c?l. Four of these sentences were accompanied by an order that the prisoner shouH be tJ.>"cI wÍlII a t'o"nino tails. At the Glamoi ganshiro Assizes in last March there were about 20 prisoners in the calendar, but not one of them was charged with robbery with violence." CunimHi'ing upon the above letter, the St. ■Tames'j (hizetle wiya" Tender-hearted Mr. Hop- w, d does not believe that lfogging has any effect in diminishing crimes of violence. What. then, will he 8?ly to the statistics communicated to the 't,e by Mr. J. K. Stephen, who is clerk of on the South Wale? Circuit? At the shir" As,iz?-? I;ot August eleven pri"oners ieceive(i smtences varying from two to twelve months' imprisonment for crimes of violence. At the December AS$i. fourte n sentences of imprison- ment were %)msed for imilur offenccs, and to four .1 th.? Mntencts aKHi"i< ?.- nd?ted. ThH ) ?",?it was that, ?though at the Glamorganshire A<sizes lagt month thcro were 26 prisonerainthe calendar, not one of them was cli r ed ltil robbery with violence.

THE SWANSEA MURDER. I
THE SWANSEA MURDER. I EXECUTION OF ALLEN. I SCEE ON THE SCktFOLD. I Thomas Allan, the coloured man who was found guilty of tho murder of Mr. George II. Kent, landlord of the Glo'ster Hotel, Swansea, on the 9th of February last, Buffered the extreme penalty of the law within the precincts of Swansea Gaol on \\edneBday morning. Since the victim was con- demned to death, about three weeks ago, public feeling bad undergone considerable change, and up to the morning before the elocu- tion thtre were hundreds, probably thousands, of to wnspeople who desired and bolieved In the poesi- bility of i reprieve. The crime was undoubtedly a dastardly one, but it was thought by many that it had not the elements of intention oDd did not really amount to more than manslaughter. A petition in favour of a reprieve had been signed by about 3,000 persons, and the high- sheriff (Mr. J. II. Rowland) and the Arch- deacon of Llandaff had dono all in their power to press it upon the favourable notice of the Flouin Secretary, but the communication received on Tuesday morning showed that all efforts in the coloured stranger's bohalf had heen unavailing. The prisonsr undoubtedly belonged to just that class of the population who would stand the least chance of a reprieve. It was known that be had been in tho hands of justice for offences against the law of property on flvo or six different occasions and had been Imprisoned four times, and the Home Secretary doubtless considered Ilia latest crime to be the natural ending to a bad career. The effect of the reply to the petition was com- municatcd to the prisoner on Tuesday. Up to thit timo the culprit had been re- markably cheerful whilst in confinement, probably In the hopo of a reprieve, but afterwards a marked change came over him. Up to the last, however, he maintained a wonderful equanimity, and he was certainly the most cheerful condemned man who has ever been incarcerated in Swansea Gaol. He had eaten his food well all through,and had considerably increased in weight since his condemnation. On the day before bi9 execution he received a letter from Mrs. Kent, in reply to an anxious request for pardon, to the effect that she forgave him the injury he hud done her. This seemed to have a remarkably cheering effect on the prisoner. The morning broke with indications of a bright day, but the air was chilly and misty. At half-past seven a group of about 100 pereons was assembled on the tramway opposite the gaol gates, with the object of holding points of 'vantage for seeing the black flag hoisted. This crowd increased to about 1,500 persons by 1 eight o'clock. THB PfiKUUINABIES. Klie tour representatives of the press who had ob. tained permits to witness the execution were shown at ten minutes to eight from the waiting-room to the exercising-room. They waited the arrival of the procession in the high litery which forms part of the treadmill and is directly over the gallows which they had an opportunity of inspecting. The gallows was specially erected for the execu- tion of Thomas Nash in 1886. The whole of the mechanism and wood and iron work is of the most substantial kind. The only things which were to be seen, however, was the black and ominous looking cross- beam, with Its cruel rope fastened to the centre and trailing on the floor. The trap door, let into the floor underneath, had a square nurkod in chalk in the centre for the prisoner to stand upon, and the handle of the lever was at the side. The executioner Berry, who had somewhat dis- appointed those having the responsibility of the execution upon them by deferring his coming till the midnight Great Western train from Gloucester, did not got to the gaol till 12.15 a.m. on Wednes- day. It was arranged, contrary to the procedure on Iris lust visit-when, it will be remembered, he caused a good deal of curiosity in the vicinity of the Mackwoith Hotel — tliat 110 should sleep in the gaol, Berry had changed but little since his last visit. He is a square-shouldered, compactly-built man of middle height, with rather stronglv maiked features, dark hair brushed high, and a fringe of reddish beard round his face. There is nothing of Calcraft's habits of self-effacement about lorn. He seems to have a genuine pride in what he styles his 11 profession," and has no hssiiaiion in avowing hhiisetf. The prisoner was confined before the exe- cution in the same large cell which accommodated Nash. He slept well from twelve o'clock on Tues- day night until five in the morning. His break- fast consist-d of eggs, bread and butter, and tea, but, contrary to what appears to be usual, he scarcely touched the food. At seven o'clock the chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Hudson, who had been in constant attendance, and had evidently induced a sincere feeling of penitence in the condemned man, visited him in his cell and continued hia ministrations for over half an hour. A few minutes before eight o'clock Allen was pinioned by Berry, and the proceasio. i -me tatey t"rted for the execution-room. The hich-ot.enff was repre. .onted by Mr. R. P. Morgan, Uf.der-shctiS. The _,?a.,I?,in tur?ieed, headed the proces sion, and the prisoner came next, guarded on the one side by Principal Warder David Thomas, and on the other by Warder David Jones. Mr. Howard, governor of the Cardiff Gaol; the under-sheriff, Mr. David, Neath (his partner), Dr. David How ell Thomas, gaol surgeon, and Major Knight, governor of Swansea Gaol, brought up the rear of the procession. The prisoner walked with marvellous firmness. He showed absolutely no change of countenance from that mani- fested by him in the dock at his trial. The walk was not a long one. Turning through a doorway on the right a little further down the corridor than the condemned cell, the procession passed Blowly and solemnly through a short passage, down a flight of stone steps, and through a doorway into an open yard between the buildings. Across the yard it went, and through a broad doorway opposite, into the largo galleried hall, which it seems is used as an exetrising room. THE EXECUTION. I The chaplain, with an open Prayer Book in his hand, read in a low voice the Service Jor the liurial of the Dead. The prisoner wa ked with- out iks,islance to the centre of the trap-door, look- ing straight in front of him and breathing rather heavily, but to all outward appearances perfectly calm and courageous. The passing bell tolting outside sounded dismally in the distance, announcing to the hundrtds outside that the terrible scene was in actual progress. Bi-rrv, with great expedition, fastened the straps round Allen's legs, the prisoner himself placing his legs together for the purpose. The hangman drow the while cap Very sliyhtly over the upper part of his head and fixed lie noose firmly round, ruuning up a second ring to the first under the left ellf. Just at this moment, as the voice (,f tho clergyman paused, the prismer said to Berry, "Slay I be allowed to say somethingV" Birry replied in the affirmative, and the prisoner broke out in a firm voice, "Lord, have mercy upon us. Christ, have mercy upon us"; then in a louder, but more broken voice, as though he knew the climix was approaching, he continued, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit this day Lord Jesus, look down upon me." As the last words broke forth Berry Btepped nimbly aside and turned him off. Tho trap door give way with a tlmd, and the prisoner was suspended, and instantaneouslj the nody was mat,olùe0<8. In a few seconds, however, those present saw a tremor run through the frame of the victim This increased momentarily, and the convulsions swayed th- body to and fro ror some lime. The legii were drawn up -lightly several times, aud the chest heaved, whilst the hands worked. It was hard to believe tt mt the prisoner was really dead, but Berry statetl that death was instantaneous. The writhing must, have con- tinued for at least two minutes. Oil lht) last ocoa-i sion of an execution at Swansea the scene was certainly different. There was absolutely liD move- ment to speak of after the full. Prisoner bt-ing about t<>D stone in weight, a drop of 6ft. 6in. was allowed him. About two minutes put eight, when the flag was hoisted, a slight cheer went up from a small section of the crowd outside the gaol. INTERVIEW WITH BERRY. In a conversation our representative had after- wards with Berry he said that the prisoner was a very strong man and full of life. He weighed ten stone, but he had a very thick neck. "I never saw a thicker one," he continued. "These black men have necks wliiidi .re very difficult to di-locte.

LETTER FROM THE WIDOW OF THE MURDERED MAN. The following letter from Mr, Kent was received by the prisoner. It was addressed to the governor of the gaol Will you please let Thorny) Allen know that, as I hope to °e toriftven for my «ln), so I l.agive him. The rest we must leave to Almlabty God. who knows the thouglits of our tieans -L am, io., F. M. Kaicr, I HISTORY OF THE CHIME. The trial of the prisoner at the last Cardiff Assizes was so fully reported at the time that it is only necessary to give a brief outline of the facts in order to bring to the minds of our readers the whole of the circumstances connected with the crlmo. The victim, Mr. George Frederick Kent, was the landlord of a house known as the Glo'ster notol, Swansea. He had lived there for many years, and was highly respected in the town. About midnight on Saturday, the 9th of February, he and Mrs. Kent retired to rest, the latter taking tipatnim with her a cash-box con- taining about M in go)d and silver. Nothing unusual occurred unt iF about five o'clock the (.I- lowing morning, when Mrs. Kent was greatly alarmed by hearing a match struck in her bedroom and by its light discovering that there was a black man in the room. She awakened her husband, who jumped out of bod and seized the man. Then occurred the terrible struggle in the dark which resulted in the death of Mr. Kent. One circumstance which lent additional interest to the fatal encounter was the extraordinary courage and presence of mind showed by Mrs. Kent. This brave lady, dreading the result of the struggle, took her husband's revolver from under the pillow, where he always kept it, nnd, watching her opportunity, fired at the intruder, with such unerring aim as to hit him (a? was afterwards discovered) in the neshy part of the thigh. The ::1?en utk:Y the door tdt'ted TII.I: escape from the house, and Alrø, Kent, upon obtaining a light, found that her hu-band was already weak with lots of blond from wounds which had been inflicted on his throat, chest, and side. Ho was put to bed and medical assistance sent for. Dr. Morgan discovered that the three wounds were or a serious nature, and that in one case tho instrument used had penetrated the lung. What that waa appeared evident by the discovery in the room of a SM?Lli razor covere? with blood. Mr. Kent succumbed to his injuries in abeut three hours. In the meantime the police had been communicated with, and took immediate slept to prevent the escape of the murderer. In this-it being Sunday morning-they were assisted by a large number of the in- habitants, and every hole and corner in the neighbourhood was carefully searched. It was not, however, until nearl) mid-day that the miscreant was discovered. He had chosen 118 his hiding-place an old disused furnace near the South Dock, and here he was found by Mr. Edward Charles, who, singularly enough, had been instru- mental in bringing to justice another Swansea criminal-It. man named Nash, who murdered his child a few years ao. The prisoner was handej over to the police, and it was lucky for him that there was a pretty strong force of constables at hand, or the enraged crowd would have dealt him summary justice. When he was examined at the police-station it was discovered that he had a bullet wound in one of his thigh.. The bullet was subsequently extracted, and was found to fit the revo?,,r Ziicli Mrs. Kent had used during the fatal struggle. There was no question as to the prisoner being tp". man who committed the deed, because in answer to the charge he admitted as much; but, at the same time, lie made a statement which enabled the learned gentleman who appeared for him at hia lIilll to mllke an able and reasonable defence in his behalf. The state- ment was to the effect that he hid been enticed tn the house by a girl, who told him to go upstairs and that she would follow him. When he In-aid IIIr. and Mrs. Kent come up he went, under the bod and slept there until five o'cluck, when he lit a match to see where lie was, and was then attacked by his victim. In a letter which he wrotr to Mrs. Kent he stated that ho was terrified wh-r lie was seized by 1 ho deceased and that the injuries were accidenta l}- caused. Unfoitunately for ho pri- soner, he was unable to recognise the girl who told him, as he said, to go up to ihd bedroom. At first lie said it was the servant at the Glo'ster Hotel, and after wards that it was a young woman named Taylor, but tatlidenied the accusation. The motive which ilia prosecution put foith for the p isoner's presence in the Glo'ster Hotel was that of robbery, and certain statempnts which lie made tllf, previous evening gave colour tu that idea. On lite 121 h of Fe -ruary the coroner's jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against thb prisoner, who at that time gave the name of ThoinnsAtten,an.ton the 14ili lie was committed for irialby the Swansea oiii^istrates. The prisoner was tiie-i at Cardiff on the 18lh of March before Mr. Justice Grantham, and, notwithstanding the able defenco set up by Mr. Glascodine, he was found guilty of wilful murder and con- demned to death. The public interest taken in Ül" case was shown by the crowd d stale of the court on the day of the trial. The rnaj irity were doubt- less curious to see Mrs. Kent, who under most try- ing circumstances had shown such nerve and courage and presence of mind ns are seldom found in the weaker sex. Before the magistrates prisoner stated that his right name was Leon Pimulu, but af'er his condemnation he said it was James Emmanuel Johannes. He also said that lie was a native of Santa Cruz, and that his father was a blacksmith in that island. The prisoner left home when he was, welve, and since that lime he had been at sea or in England. It appeared, also. that he hal suffered imprisonment fuz. theft at B iro- staple.

DEATH OF THE REV. KILSBY I…
DEATH OF THE REV. KILSBY JONES. BIOGltAPHICAL PARTICULARS. [Br Momkh.1 It Is with deep regret the public will learn that the Rev. 11 Kilaby" Jones, Llanwriyd Wells, has gone over to the majority. Be passed away gently between seven and eljht o'clock on Wednes- day morning, at his residence, In the 761h year of his age. During the greater part of his long life liA had occupied an unique position In the eyelol the Welsh people. It is very difficult to describe his publio character, for, although an undoubted evangelist, there was In 1,la soul such a broad vein of humour that it would occasionally exercise a dominant influence over his mind, and induce him to utter quaint remarks in the midtt of a sermon, with the result that the multi- tude, which a moment before was serious, would become ccnvuUed with laughter. Be was the son of the Rev. Rhys Jones, Welsh Congregationalist minister, who resided at it farm- house called Ffald-y-Brenhin (The King's Fold), In the parish of Llancrwys, between Lampeter and Llandovery .Carmarthenshire.Bis mother died when Kilsby was a lad. His father married again. Judging from rumour, Kiløb,'1 "Itepmothr was as averse to literary studies as the virago all have heard of who used her husband's Berm on. as curling papers for her hair, and thereby sent her husband frantic. The Blepmother would frequently disturb and annoy young "Kileby" while engaged in bi8 studies. His father farmed II well as preached. When Kilsby's" stock of patience was exhausted in the face of his stepmother's annoyances he would carry a table, chair, and books to a neigh- bouringopen field, and, in sight of the wholo parish, would there continue his studies; 10 the intense mortification, no doubt, of the llysfam whom his father had brought home ond sworn to 14 love andelieriali "I In 1 hose day s the motherless boT aspired to be a jn-egethter (preach r). In ibis he resembled the immortal Jones of Talysnrn, But, while the last-named prenched to children, who, in imitation of the influence of the liny I. as shown in the chapels, would shout, Diolcli!" IK., and jump" under bis boyish "ministry," "Kilsby" preached to the assembled cattle and pigs which lie himself had gathered together to form a congregation. On those occasions the old Welsh sheep dog would stand gravely by "Kilsby's" aide, and if one of the cattle or one of the pigs became restive and disturbed U cj{farfod (t lie meeting) the dog would beat the animal in an instant. The dog in tbeliltle drama fulfilled the rile of deacon. "Kilshy" was wont to tell his friends that there w, re constant quarrels between the dog and one of the pigs, which the boy preacher firmly believed was a veritable descendant of the swine of tlie Gadarenes. In the Sunday (Schools of the Welsh Cnlvioistic MethodiBts there is a smllll Welsh catechism called "Rodd Mam." In this, to folluw the Welsh idiom, is asked: How many pans (rhan) are there in man V The answer is: Two-øoul and body." Jones of Talygarn was in the habit, when a mere child, of cali chi dog the children from this book. Ono day little Jones attended to see. pig being killed, and he was observed watching every move" ment intently, and particularly when the dead porker was being opened. The next (line lie held lorth the boy declared to the other children" that a pig had but one 'part': that It had no soul inBide," for he bad seen one pig opened, and he was certain no soul was discovered in it," "Kilsby" came to the same conclusion, owing to Ibe soulless behaviour of one of their race at Llancrwys, "Kii-sby" was very fond of describing the faithful old dog referred to. He said he was a constant attendant at every service at the chapel. If the family through nny cause stayed at home the old dog wou'd proceed alone, gravely, to the service, and would there stay to the close, moping among the elders. "Yr oedd," ebe Kilsby," M yn aelod yn inhob petli ond yr enw!" I believe "Kilsby" spent some tillle at Dr Davies'e sch .ol at FfrwdvaK He afterwards spent some years at the Presbyterian College, Cariniuthen. When ilier hi. ec"entolclllel, inde- pendence of spirit, wittici-ms, and remarkable quickness attracted much alteinioii. am! mad Imn a g-nerilfavout it!

Owen, which was an action for libel Drought by a Welsh Congregationalist minister against the Wtstern Mail. when damages of £2,000 were given to plaintiff. Execution had been stayed on de- fendants paying the damages into court. but the new trial had to be passed over because it could not be tried by the court hearing new trials as it was at present constituted. Mr. Juatic" Stephen Why was it passed over ? Mr. Lockwood: It was passed over because your lordship has been a member of the court tikin-" ne* trials during the whole of the I?re8Hnt sittings. Of course, as your lordship tried the case, you could not hear the motion for a new trial.

A FEW WORDS PROM LLANSTEPHAN. TO THE KDiroB OF TilE WESTKHN If AIL." Ja.- Not having seen JWY re,1r8 in these columns re the effect of the Sunday Closing Act at Llansteplian since Mr. Thomas's letter of last week, I wish toO say a word or two. I quire endorse Mr. Thomas's statements, and would welcome the rep al of the undoubtedly well-in'en-'ed, but ei,d.(-ing, A et. Mr. Thomas said that Sun cay drunkenness had increased during the last twoyears. So it has, and more than during the previous years. It is certain to Still futther increase every summer. During the summer of 1887 there were more drunken people here on Sundays alone frcm Car. marthen, Kidwelly, &e., than during the rest of the A ho l e year put together. Ex-Police-wnst?ble J'tttM Ke?da!, who I, been d:t:I: .b. fifteen ye,,s, ?a s he do s not remember a Case of Sun av ?u?k -nnes^ here during the whole time until the Sunday Closing Act came into force. -,riougi i myself not a Blue Ribbnnite or a Good Templar, yet I am ATOrALtESfAlNER.

GLAMORGANSHIRE. The Glamorganshire Quarter Sessioos were re- sumled on Wednesday at the Town-ball, 8wansea. FIRST COURT (Before Mr. J. C. Fowlek, Chairman; Mr. Du La Becsk Dillwtk, Mr. 0. H. Jomes, end Ur.I Burran.) THE NjW TKKDEGAR CLUB APPEAL. DI8MISSED WITH COSTS. MITIGATION OF THE PENALTY. The adjourned appeal ma le by William Butta", I mananrer of the New Tredegar Club, Card iff,against the decision of the Cardiff m igistratee was re- I sumed. Mr. Howel Jeffreys and Mr. 0. Lewis appeared for the Inland Revenue authorities, Mr. Abe. Thomas and Mr. David Lewis beine for the appellant. The legal argument as to the admissibility of further evidence on the appellant's side to that given at Cardiff Police-court was resumed. Mr. David Lewis contended that the Summary Juris- diction ActIO over-rode the special provlslool of the Revenue Acta in this respect. All appeal pro- ceedii.g* were now uniform, and it had been held tbat the Act of 1884 was intended to simplify and, he mi6)n My, codify the law of appeals from eal:'fsitte:'aéc¡;. ¡'FlI:'e Mtd, ab<'Utd tb? tin-st old Revenue Acts which nobody knew any- thing about except the Inland Revenue people themselves, should be exempted from the c(Afy. ing Act of 1884, which r'-?uttK?d all appeals. Mr. Abel Thomas similarly contended. Mr. Jeffreys replied %t tbe Revenue Acts were specially exempted from Use Julicwure Act4& Mr. Fowler ..id, lhouCh they fel regmtv they were bound by lhe old Kclse Acts. Mr. D?vid Lewis observed thu In the Cardiff cnurt th? s?hcitor f;e:ut W "k'1 an adjournment to enable him to prodwe all the persons who were drinking at U» elub on the day when the alligel offence was committed to coutm- i g'I! witness n?mfd fletd. who WM put forward by the Inland &-venue authorities. Nr, Fowler said they could only hear the wit- nesses heard by Ute magistrates. Miss Louisa Sutton was then called, and corro- bomted I Ise evidpnce of her father, that Pield had been invi ed to fill up a form of membership, that Harris (another Inland Revenue witness), had filled up a form of membership for him, and that be was duly made a member. Wr. J. H. Jones, solicitor, Cardiff, aid he had asked for information from the Inland Revenue authorities as to their case, and had been refused. They bad heard that an Excise officer named Suctie was to give evidence, and tiler could prove that he bad not been on the premises. He had aaked for an adjournment, as they had not had sufficient time to prepare a defence, but the magistrates said they would sit all night if neceasaiy no that they should not get an adjournment. At a matter of fact, they did sit till nine o'clock at night. Mr. David Lewis then addressed the court, and Mr. Jeffreys, who followed, maintained that there could be no doubt that Field was not a member when drink was sold him. He further pointed out tliat the court bad the power to miti- gate the penalty to a fourth nf the full penalty, which in this case had been £ 50 for selling spirits, and SZO for selling beer. The actual penalty im- posed by the Cardiff magistrates waa ZOD and £10. The Court held tliat the election of Field ae a member of the club had no validity in feet or In law, nd that it was a ahum. 'nw, therefore, diml.ed the appeal; but, bering in mind the strong observations made by ti)e Lord Chief Justice in reference to a case from G Is morgan- shire, they reduced the pcnaKiet to tbe minimum, vit, E12 109. and ?5. Mr. Jeffreys applied for costs. Mr. Fowler: Costs will follow, of coune. Mr. David Lewis tiien applied that a cam be stated, but the Court unanitnouxlv refused, stating that a mandamus might be applied for. There were three otlier appeals with regard to the same club against penalties of £2,0. £ 2, and £ 10, p nd these were reduced to £ 12 10s^ 0, and A respec- tively. The item of;C2 was for selling tobacco, and Mr. Jeffiers ftated that the minimum penalty the magistrates should have imposed was R12 10s. He naked that this be raised to the laat mentioned amount, and undertook tliat the commissioners would again reduce it to the t2. The Court, how- ever, refused to accede to the request. Mr. Abel Thomas R-ked for costs in tbe second appeal. Tlie whole of the penalties imposed by the Cardiff magibttatem had heen jE62, and though thia had now been mitigated in the aggregate to 937 Øl'; .t:e I:O "'g te to ever, went 88 in the first appeal, and an intima- tion was given that a mandamus will be applied for.
