Mr. C. R. TRUEMAN. Loses Action at Assizes. An interesting legal point was raised at the Glamorgan Assizes yesterday in a case in which William Henry Dades, frui- terer, Neath, was charged with inflicting grievous bodily harm on Clement Pob?rt Trueman, of the same town. Mr. Artemus Jones. K.C., prosecuted, and Mr. Ellis Griffith. K.C.. and Mr. Marlay Samson, K.C. (instructed by Mr. Edward Powell, Neath), defended. Mr. Marlay Samson put forward the de- fence that Davies had been acquitted of thelpffcnce by the Neath magistrates aud ]so I)y the Glamorgan Assize Court. At the Assizes he was acquitted of inflict- ing grievous bodily hami. with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm." The pro-1 secution had now dropped the ?ine tent," and prisoner was charged only with in- flicting grievoufc bodily harm." The former charge was a felony and the latter a misdemeanour. Mr. Artcmus Jones raised the point that the two charges were different, and that the prisoner could be tried on the latter count. I LAW STRONG ON POINT. His Lordship, in his address to the jury, said that the prisoner was acquitted at the Assizes of inflicting bodily harm with intent." After that Mr. Trueman, with great perseverance, again laid in- formation against the prisoner for ii.flict- ing grievous bodily harm, but leaving out the words with intent." The offence was thus changed from a felony into a misdemeanour. It was a point of law that a prisoner could not be tried twice for the same offence. So strong is the law on this point," said his Lordship, that if a man is charged in this court, with murder, and is found not guilty, the man can go outside and say he com- mitted it and go free. The jury returned a verdict of Not guilty/\

REMEMBRANCER King's Message to, his People. i To Celebrate Armistice Day. The King has addressed the following letter to bios people from Buckingham F&lac*:— TO ALL MY PEOPLE. I Tuesday next, November JJth, is the first anniversary of the armistice which stayed the world-wide carnage of the four preceding years, and marking the victory of right and freedom. I believe that my people In every part of the Empire fervently -wis.h to perpetuate the memory of that great deliverance and of those who laid down their lives to achieve it. To afford an opportunity for the universal expression of this feeling it is my desdre and hope that at the hour when the armistice cmhein to force-- the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th iiionth-thpre may be for the brief spar- of two minutes a complete suspension of all our normal activities. During that tirnè' except in the i-art, e,as,g where this may be impracticable, all work, all pound, all locomotives should eease. so that in the perfect still- ness the tho-ughts of everyone may be concentrated in reverent remembrance of the Glorious Dead. No elaborate organisation appears to lj* neeesaary. At a given signal, which can easily be arranged to suit the cir- cumstances of each locality, I heliave that we shall all gladly interrupt our business and pleasure, whatever it may be, and united in; this simple service of silence and remembranoc. (Signrd) GEORGE, R.I. GOVERNMENT SUGGESTIONS. j Tne Home Secretary, ju a with reference to the King's message, says:— The Government feel that the carrying out. of the King's wishes must be left to the sympathetic goodwill of the com- munity. No general instructioas ?on en- $ure the su?c?ss of a ceremony which can only be truly impressive if it ie universal and ?MntanM?. Th? poni? <? CApital l importance is that the mon/ent fixed for the commencement of the Awo minutes* silence, J1 a.m. on Tuesday, should be clearly marked by some sound which can he distincly heard by all persons in the district for which the particular signal is intended. In country villages it is believed that the church clock striking the hour of eleven will be a sufficient signal, or, where there is no church rfocfc, the church bells or other appropriate instrument might be used instead. But in towns some other means must be adopted. In London and the suburbs* the signal will bp given by maroons. In other towns and populous centres a irén or other i-ignal is suggested. Arrangements are being made to stop all trains throughout the country, and instructions have b".n given to the London police to stop all traffic in the street?. It i* hoped local police authorities will do the same. In factories and workshops it must be left to the goodwill of employers and em- ployed to make such arrangements as will best carry out the spirit of the scheme. It is not thought desirable to close shops or places of business, but shopkeepers and their customers will, it i* hoped, agree to a pause during the two minutes' silence. People in the streets can best eo-operate- by simply standing still when the signal comes. THE MAYOR'S HOPE. The Mayor (Councillor W. H. Miles), seen with reference to the Kind's proposal for Armistice Day, Mid he'entirely sgreeel with it, and hopfcl that so far as it was practical it would lie universally obwrved. In fact, he added, I feel sure that every- thing neessary will be done to duly niark the anniversary of such an auspicious event.

ARE YOUR SAVINGS DWINDLING? You worked hard to save those few tens or hundreds, and looked forward to having enough to keep you in y-our old age; then your health failed, and you are! drawing upon your savings. What is thai trouble? It is probably one that a bottle of Warner's Safe Cure will remove. | Examine your symptoms—perhaps they includ e constipation, coated tongue, in- digestion, headache and bilious attacks, depression, irritability, failing sight, general weakness, gravel, colic in the side and back, and piles. These signs point to chronic liver trouble. If, in addition, you have dropsical swellings, headabhe J and rheumatic pains, your kidneys re perilously out of order, and you may have Brighl's disease, if it has not already 6et in. Whether you have liver complaint or kidney disease, you will obtain speedy relief by taking Warner's Safe" C-,ire. Mr. France, 188. Moorbottom Road.

» ■ ■—-1 SELLING WAR BONDS. Swansea Guardians and Their 92,000 Overdraft. At Swansea Guardians Finance Com- mittee, Mr. Bart Cronin presiding, the question of sale of £0,000 War Bonds was considered. The Clerk reported that they had considerably overdrawn at th bank. and would have to borrow to pay their proportion for the Drym ma Institution. Tho majority of the other constituent unions had raised the money and did not intend to borrow. Expert advice had been taken, and Mr. Ashmole was of opinion that the present was a desir- able time to sell. The Chairman pointed out that if they sold at the present time they would lose £ 150, but six months' interest was due ( £ 1.25), so that their loss on t.Q trans- action would be ;C2;-), which would com- j pai-,i favourably with the position if they lu*d to borrow. It was decided to sell the War Bonds, pay Drymma, and devote the balance to reduction of the overdraft. Contributions oiNEl for Llandrindod Convalescent Home and C-,3 5s. for Pont- ardulnis Hospital were voted. The Clerk annunced that they were alnrat £ 2,000 overdrawn at the bank.
