NEW MAGISTRATES.I
NEW MAGISTRATES. Cardiff County Connoil Getting Anxious and May Take Action. The delay in appointing new magistrates foi Glamorganshire and the county borough of Cardiff is causing a considerable amount of comment. It is well known that, in conse- quence of the number of names recommended and the way in which some of the petitions presented to the Lord Chancellor were pre- pared, a searching inquiry into the fitness of the gentlemen recommended for the commis- sion of the peace would be instituted. Since the disclosures in reference to the workings of the magistrate-making syndicate appeared in the "Western Mail about three months have passed, but no official notification has been received that the commission either for Gla- morganshire or Cardiff has been required by the Lord Chancellor. This, in view of the fact that several additions have been made to the commissions in other counties and boroughs in South Wales, is considered rather strange. We hear there is an intention on the part of several members of the Cardiff County Council to put forward a resolution with the view of nominating for the consideration of the Lord Chancellor prominent residents in the town and members of their own I)odyA,, Through death several vacancies have recently^ occurred among the magistrates of the borough, and the work of the court is, consequently, heavier upon those who remain,
WELSH RUGBY UNION.
WELSH RUGBY UNION. Selection of the Welsh Team to Meet Ireland. A meeting of the committee of the Welsh Rugby Union took place at the Angel Hotel. Cardiff, on Tuesday night, when there were present :-Messrs. A. J. Davies, W. H. Treatt, W. Reea, T. Williams, W. Wilkins, and W. H. Gwynn, seoretary. The first business was the selection of the Welsh team to meet Ireland, at Belfast, on March 10. The fifteen were selected as follows :—Back, W. J. Bancroft (Swansea); three-quarter backs, W. M'Outcheon (Swansea and Oldham), D. Fitzgerald (Cardiff), A. J. Gould (Newport), and T. W. Pearson (Cardiff) half-backs, F. Parfitt (Newport) aud R. B. Sweet-Escott (Cardiff) forwards, A. F. Hill (Cardiff), J. Hannen (Newport), T. C. Graham (Newport), D. J. Daniel (Llanelly), F. Mills (Swansea), Wallace Watts (Newport), C. B. Nicholl (Llanelly ajid Cambridge University), and H. T. Day (Newport). Reserves :—Back, J. Davies (Neath) three-quarter backs-wing, Norman Biggs (Cardiff) and Cliff Bowen (Llanelly), centres-J. E. Elliott (Cardiff) and A. W. Boucher (Newport); half-backs, Wat Thomas (Neath) and Mat Hannen (Newport); forwards, A. W. Boucher (Newport), F. Hut- chinson (Neath), D. W. Nicholl (Llanelly), and R. G. Edwards (Morriston). From the team that defeated Scotland at New port there are two changes. W. L. Thomas stands down, M'Cutcheon again being selected on the right wing, Pearson being in the position of left wing. This means that the three- quarters are exactly the same as were selected to meet Scotland. The other change is at half- back, where the sterling play of R. B. Sweet- Escott is at last recognised, he being chosen to fill the place of Percy Phillips, who could not make the journey to Ireland. Boucher, who was selected in the Scottish match, but who did not play owing to an injury, stands down in favour of Graham, although, strange to say, Boucher has been selected reserve in two positions, viz., forward and three-quarter, an nnheard of thing in the Rugby world.

BRISTOL CHANNEL TRIPS.
BRISTOL CHANNEL TRIPS. The Proposal to Levy Tolls at Bristol Piers. An interview took place on [Monday between the representatives of the firms of Messrs. Edwards, Robertson, and Co. and Messrs. Camp- bell and Co., Cardiff, the owners of the Bristol Channel passenger steamers, and the officials of the traffic department of the Bristol Docks Committee at Bristol with reference to the pro- posed levying of tolls upon passengers embark- ing and disembarking at Bristol DJ-JV;. The Bristol authorities have obtained Parliamentary p wers under which they are entitled to c»,l H. t tolls, and they propose that the collection fhould be undertaken by the owners of the steamers. The latter, however, decline to undertake the responsibility, urging that it would cost more to gather in the tolls than 11.1) tills themselves would amount to. In ihe interview on Monday the deputation from Carttif pointed out that tolls were not I'np.ised at Cardiff. Li-verpool, Glasgow, New.'ji^ls, and ether large ports, and urged that as ih» vate- pai ers of Bristol were the owners of the dn.'l.s of that port, it was somewhat hard that they should be made to pay fees for using them. The officials of the traffic department intimated that the result of the interview I i e < on<- municated to the authorities, and the proceed- ings ended. It may be mentioned that the Bute Docks Company have inserted the follow- iuif clause ir the Bill they are now p.-omoini.c —"The company may from time to time de- mand and take for every passenger embarking jjgjp disembarking within the docks, or at any Jpier, jetty, or other works of the n iiii'.aij, any SUM not exceeding 2d. r

A GRUESOME DISCOVERY. Decomposing Body of an Old Man Found at Treorky. A haulier named William Wright, whilst re- moving some hay from a rick belonging to the Ocean Colliery Company, situate near the Treorky Railway Station, on Tuesday afternoon, came across the dead body of an old man in a terribly decomposed condition. The body was that of a man apparently 60 or 65 years of age, about 5ft. lOin. in height, thinly built, with grey hair and whiskers. The poor fellow was apparently a tramp, for he wore an old brown- ribbed cloth coat, a black cloth vest, and a blue cloth trousers (similar to an Army trousers), an old bowler bat) new nailed boots, and a grey Welsh flannel shirt. On searching the body an old tobacco pouch was found in one of the deceased's pockets, but no document which would lead to his identification. -?-

The concert was a decided success, the efforts 1 of the artistes being thoroughly appreciated, and encores were numerous. The choir, under the conductorship of Madame C.

Though, the matter had been amicably settled, he was bound, when attacked, and when a political cry was made of it, to defend himself. The town had been called upon to pay X13,000 for that improvement, and, as he (Sir John) had pro- perty across the street, he had simply said to Mr. Evans, It is you and I who should make this improvement, and if you pay £ 2,000 I will pay £ 2.000 towards the cost of widening Caer- street." -?-

Dr. Keen, who was warmly greeted, said no Church could be truly evangelical that was not essential iy missionary in its character. It was a grand thing to see the Church as a whole facing the supreme problem of the hour— the Gospelling of the human race. During the past hundred years more souls had been con- verted under missionary labours in heathen lands than were converted under the ministry, of the Apostles and their successors in the first century of the Christian era. The age of mission^ rivalled the age of miracles in the salvation of the heathen. The one great need was more men. ?. -?-

SMALL-POX AT BARRY.
SMALL-POX AT BARRY. Two Cases on Board a Ship in the Dock Basin. The three-masted British ship Hospodar, which came up Channel on Tuesday night from Havre bound for Barry Dock for coal cargo, was boarded down Channel by the Barry pilot, Mr. Thomas Jones, -ut on arrival in Barry Roads the captain took stEps before attempt- ing to dock to communicate with the local medical authorities, and Dr. King. the assis- tant medical officer of health to the Barry and Cadoxton Local Boa-iri, promptly boarded the Cardiff tugboat the Levant, which was lying in the dock, and proceeded to the roads. On reaching the ship Dr. King was informed that two of the orew had fallen victims to small- pox during the voyage, but were gradually recovering. The ship was, however, allowed to dock at onoe, and she accordingly entered the basin, where she lay between the sailing ship Melete, which had just arrived light from Antwerp, and the steamer Eugene, of London, which had docked on the same tide, from Bremerhaven. Strangely, too, the pilot, Mr. T. Jones, was allowed to land. Dr. King on the arrival of the ship in the basin summoned Mr. A. E. Leyshon, the local board's sanitary inspector, for the. purpose of having the in- fected members of the crew carried to the temporary infectious hospital, situated on the dock company's property near Mill Cottage, for the purpose of being sanitarily dealt with and medically attended to. A number of tradesmen's runners jumped on board the fever-stricken ship as soon as she arrived in the basin, and up to the time of writing they were rigidly prevented from landing.

HEALTH OF CARDIFF. Medical Officer Walford's Annuai Report to the Council. The annual report just issued by Dr. \> al- ford, medical officer of health, and addressed to the chairman and members of the Cardiff Port Sanitary Authority, gives full informa- tion as to the work of the department during the year, the number of vessels boarded, the inspection of shipping, &c. Most of the sub- inspection of shipping, &c. Most of the sub- jects dealt with have been discussed at the meetings of the sanitary authority or brought in other ways before the public, but Dr. Walford, in speaking of cholera precautions, makes a suggestion as to the present hospital accommodation at the Flat Hohn which de- serves to be specially emphasised and seen to by the public authorities. He says:—"I have to advise that the accommodation is in- sufficient for the probable requirements of the port. I am of opinion that it would be de- sirable to extend the permanent building,which contains only one male ward and nurse's kitchen, with accommodation for four patients. Instead of continually incurring the expense of purchasing supplementary tents, it would, I believe, be wise economy to construct an additional ward, similar in kind, but perhaps rather larger in dimensions than the existing ward. The experience of the jyast summer has also shown that it would be desirable to alter the administrative arrangements of the hospital. The hotel, which is within a very short distance of the ward, should, I think, be entirely under the control of the port sanitary authority, and should be used solely for the purposes of hospital administration.

The Play and Players 'PROMPTER'S' WEEKLY WALK ROUND TOWN. He Tells of Novel Impressions Gathered in the Theatres and Music- Halls of Cardiff. Come next October and it is ten good solid: years since Mr. Gartbone's company did favour us with their presence at Cardiff, and now, forsooth, they bring with them the chill and chattering season that contracts one into a quivering atomy of goose flesh. However, even in these accompanying conditions, there are grains of comfort, for they encourage one to drink deep. or touch not the Pierian spring. There is no encouragment for teetotalism this weather, and even my much respected friend • and colleague Ko Ko," whose public morality is rigidity itself, yields privately to the fascina- tion offered by Mr. Fletcher's bar, yields to it, too, in a manner characteristic of none but a Bohemian. Truly, sir, I do eften think that the psychology of th £ drink question appears worthy of a moment's more consideration than yet are willing for me to give to it. Rot! you say.

Monday and Tues- day, is a production after my own heart, a piece which, frankly speaking, I > regard with great favour. and I must confess my surprise at its not receiving more support than it has frem the usually apprecip-ti-ve Cardiff public. A v detailed criticism has appeared else. where. I will simply point out what I consider an excep- tionally s tronj character in Mr. C. W. Garthorne's Captain Grichton. v To my mind his ren- dering is an admi- rable caricature of our present day British officer, who, with an assumed Haw haw anc foppishness put 011 for special occasions, still proves himself its retaining the manliness of a soldier and an English gentleman. His strongest points are, to my mind, shown in Act 4. when he becomes "a member of the famiiy." and explains to Victor de ReiI how the laim lies, and what mode of procedure his French friend has got to adopt. I must recommend both "Impulse and The Colonel" as pieces worthy of Seutn Wahans best patronage. You must excuse my taking a little mere Turkish gin before I commence on the Empire, but really there a.re such a multitude of turns at this house, and all of them go so strong, that it is necessary for oue to take some little light refreshment before looking around. Zalika, who flirts with the lions, is a taking feature af the entertainment. With all her professed contempt for the ma.gnificent--w hen he is belumd the bars of a cage—king of the forest, I have no mind to emulate her example.

Without instituting invidious comparison* I must confess to a great liking for tho juggling of the A v r i gn y s. P e r h a p s a less sensa- tional perfor- mance is, how- ever, more to my liking. Of juggling we have of late been surfeited in the halls, but the quar- tette under notice give us something just a bit out of the common, sufficiently clever to excite admiration, and unhackneyed enough to charm and in- terest.
