A MILITANT RECTOR. Remarkable Departure in Church Worship. At 6.30 on Sunday evening, when the rain n London was at its worst, the Rev. W. Car- ile, founder of the. Church Army, was out in lie streets with his band, beating up recruits or the evensong at St. Mary-at-Hill, of which lity church he is the rector. A novel sight w is his milit-ant clergyman as he stood baretieaded ,nd in full canonicals conducting the instru- mentalists by his own performance on the rombone, which now and again he dropped rom his lips to offer a dry and happy evening 0 the onlookers at "our place just round the orner." He captured several of the particular >lass for which the rev. gentleman keeps a harp look-out, among them a representative of the "Morning," who had heard something of he peculiar methods Ity which the head of the. JhurcltArmy is carrying out his remarkable nission. When Mr. Carlile returned, some ;wenty minutes before the time appointed for the service, he found a dense congregation awaiting him. Presently a body of surplieed musicians, with stringed and reed and brazen instruments, enter and take their seats in the body of the church, close up to the reading desk, and they beguile the time with some excellent eacred music. Then there emerges from the vestry the choir, composed of men, boys. women, and girls, all surplieed. Mr. Carlile heads the procession with the Church Army banner, the motto of which is "Come and See." The service opens with a solo by a young lady in the organ gallery, Miss Jessie Ala,iiton. After more music- from the orchestra, in which the chief place is given to a cornet polo, a livnm is -sung to a spirited tune with a chorus. Then Mr. Carlile mounts the reading desk. He carries with him a dark lantern, which he lights up for himself. The electric light is turned down, in order that the opening sentences of the evening service may be projected by the limelight lantern on to the screen, so that those without Prayer-books may take vocal part in the worship. This idea, it may be said, is followed throughout. Before proceeding to the pulpit. Mr. Carlile announced that next Sunday evening there would be lime- light views of JaDan. In the morning, at nine o'clock, according to custom, there would be a brieht musical service, with a. two minutes' sermon—iust the thing, he said, for those who had arranged for a country walk or had a dinner to cook. Of course, he pleaded for the offer- tory but he did so without any misgiving, as not a farthing of the money contributed went into the pockets of anyone connected with the Ch nroli Armv. The sermon was founded on a passage in Isaiah, "Being the poor that are outcast to thy house." Mr. Carlile had frome fine samples of the outcast in front of him. Special pews had been assigned to some fifty vagrant men who had lhat day been the guest? of the Chuivh Army at breakfast, dinner, and ten. and who were then awaiting their sup- per. The sermon itself was earnest. a pas- sionate plea, for sufeoour for the homeless and the starving, rendered particularly forcible by illustrations drawn from newspaper reports of suicides begotten of ,f>T,trc»me poverty. Fol- lowing the sermon came limelight views of \enPR in Japan, and of the life and death of Jenu*. The service concluded with the some- what remarkable spectacle of the rector stand- ing within the altar rails blowing his trombone more or less in unison with the orchestral accompaniment to a, hymn. But the rector himself had -not with the pronounce- ment of the Benediction. He had a praise ireeting to follow, and in the meantime stationed himself at the exit door to bid good night to and shake hands with all who were departing.

BALLOON ASCENTS. Interview with an Aeronaut at Cardiff. Among the many attractions to be provided A at the Cardiff Flower Show to-day (Wednes- day) will be the balloon ascents. The ser- vices of Mr. Stanley Spencer, of the well- known firm of Messrs. Charles orreen Spencer and Sons, Holloway, London, have been engaged, and, upon gleaning tha.t this popular aeronaut and parachutist had arrived in Car- diff, and was staying at the Royal Hotel, on Tuesday evening a representative of tht "Express" made tracks for the establish- ment, where the pressman found Mr. Spencer reclining on the lounge in the Japanese Room. Mr. Spencer is a fair-haired, thiokly-set man od about 26 yea-rs of age, and from his drese and carriage would be taken for a midshipman. lhe balloon you have brought with you tc Cardiff is one of your best?' remarked the pressman. "Yes. It is the splendid balloon called 'Excellent- and is of 52,000ft. capacity. 14 was in this balloon that I made the astounding excursions from Wembley Park, Crystal Palace, and Woodhouse Park grounds during the last- few months. She carries eight oi ten people to a he.ght- of 1,000ft. At the small charge of 5s. per head I will take visi- tors to that number with me at. the Sophia Gardens to-morrow. "You have, of course, made many ascents ?" "During the last six or seven years I have made at least 600 ascents. I have travelled through America. Canada, the West India Islands. Africa. and France. As I was leaving the West India. Isla.nds I was presented with an elegantly-worked gold medal, suitably inscribed in recognition of my performances. Then, in many other places, I have received numerous prpsents." In answer to other queries, Mr. Spencer told of many "hair-breadth escapes and perilous adventures"—landing in the sea, in forests, and on mountains and cliffs. Notwithstand- ing all this, howt er, he is not much the worse, and his performances at the Sophia Gardens will bo-a, treat to witness.

COLLIERY EXPLOSIONS. Ventilating Fans Help to Extend the Force. One of the most experienced and capable mining engineers in the Merthyr Valley, in an interview with a representative of the "Wes- tern Mail," said he quite agreed with the writer of the article in ou rissue of the 10th inst. in so far as he contends that the bountiful supply of fresh air sent into the mine had a busy hand in the great energy and destructive force which characterised the explosion at the Albion Pit. A strong current of air, said our reporter's informant, would, no doubt, increase the in- tensity of an explosion in a very dry mine, where the coal dust was proved to be excep- tionally explosive, as in the Albion case; but these pre-disposing conditions existed only in isolated instances, and, speaking generally, the measure of ventilation provided was .jiot so large as to be a source of danger, and not more excessive than was really required in the interests of the absolute safety of human life. The "Colliery Guardian" says that what is, without doubt, the most powerful ventilating plant in the world has just been fitted up at the South Moon Collieries, in the county of Durham. The workings at these c-ollieries will ultimately extend: over an area of several square miles, and as the whole are to be ventilated by the one fan, it was; necessary to have it of exceptional power. The fan is the Waddle Improved Patent, and is 45ft. in diameter. It is driven by a high pressure horizontal engine, with cylinders 4.0in. diameter. Steam at 801b. pressure is supplied by three Lancashire boilers, which a.re fitted with forced draught. The up- cast shaft, to which the fan is connected, has been sunk specially ■ for the ventilation, and is a very fine piece of work, being walled throughout from too to bottom, and 16ft. in diameter. The fan was started the other day, and in a preliminary test, made under the superinten- dence of Mr. James Fairley, the manager of the collieries, a volume of 553,660 cubic feet per minute was obtained, with the fan running at little more than half speed. When the arrange- mente are further advanced and the whole of the boiler power is available, it appears that much geate esults will be obtained. From the above it would appear that the days when a collier had reason to complain that when underground he lived in a close, unwholesome atmosphere, that rendered his occupation un- healthy as well as dangerous, have now passed away. Indeed, judging from the way things are now tending, it seems probable that the collier of the near future will find cause for grumbling in the fact that be has to work in a gale of wind. The makers of ventilating machinery are, ap- parently, not going to rest until they have made it necessary for the miner to don a thick overcoat, and muffler before. starting work. in- stead (J" stripping almost naked, as is now often the case.

ASSASSINATION OF CARNOT. The Ministry of the Interior is having printed a volume for the 38,000 mayoralties in France. It contains all the official papers of France describing M. Carnot's death, the evidence given at Caserio's trial, accounts of the funeral, of the wreath, the high personages who sent them, with copies of their letters, and photographs of the lying in State and different phases of the funeral ceremonies. Of course, there will be portraits of M. Carnot. One will show him as he was at the Lyons banquet, and another as he lay dead on a camp-bed at the Prefecture of Lyons.

AFFAIRS OF A CARDIFF BUILDER. Mr. E. C. Newby, builder and contractor, Cardiff, has convened a meeting of his creditors to consider his financial position. Mr. Newby has carried out extensive building operations in Cathedral-road and other parts of Cardiff, and recently took a contract for the erection of large premises adjoining Dr. Taylor's house in Queen- street. Pressure from creditors rendered it necessary that he should call a meeting at an early date.

> AN M.P. SUMMONED. At Harwich on Tuesday Mr. Hudson Kearley, I.P., was summoned for refusing to pay a church rate in respect of certain premises in the town belonging to a tea company, of which the hon. gentleman is part proprietor. The defen- tdant maintained that the rate was illegal, but evidence having been given showing that the rate was legally made in vestry assembled, the magistrates made an order against the defen- dant for payment.

GLADSTONE ON SMALL CULTURE Mrs. Gladstone on Tuesday presented prizes gained at a horticultural show held in the grounds of Hawarden Castle. Mr. Gladstone, subsequently replying to a vote of thanks on behalf of his wife, referred to the imporÍ'lce of .small culture, viz., the culture of minor and secondary objects connected with agricultural ■gursuits.

The Suicide at Cwmbran. An inquest was held on Tuesday at Cwmbran, before Mr. Roberts. Jcnes, coroner, touching the death of George Morgan, a butcher, aged 36, who cut his throat on Monday last.-T.be jury returned a verdict of Suicide-whilat in an un- sound state of mind." j

DOCK ACCOMMODATION. Report on the State of the Harbour at Lianelly- The meeting of the Llaneliy H arbour Com missioners on Tuesday afternoon was important for more reasons than one. In the first place. Sir Alexander Rendel, consulting engineer to the port, presented a report on his last visit to Llaneliy. Speaking generally, Sir Alexander advocated the construction of a. training wall on the north side of the estuary, as it is necessary to the proper action of that on the south side. The minimum width of the channel between the two walls should be 1,000ft., and as the present training wall has reached the point at which its diversion should commence, he recom- mended that an application be made to -the Board of Trade for leave to vary the line sanc- tioned. In bis opinion, the entrance of the lyubour l^bE been placode by th2 construction ef. the timber breakwater, too much on one side of the harbour, and too close to its eastern shore. All that has happened since has been the natural consequence of the work, and either the break- water must be removed—a most difficult and costly measure—or they must be content to Undertake such operations as would minimise the mischief, such as putting a check on the deposit of slag outside the harbour, constant dredging, and reducing the level of the sandbanks outside the harbour by means of the training walls in the estuary.-It was decided to refer the report to the next meeting.—The following letter was also read Copper Works, Llaneliy, July 31, 1894. To the Chairman and Members of the Llaneliy Harbour Commission. Dear Sirs,—Having- regard to the question of acquiring dock accommodation of their own that has been before your board and the town generally for a comaderablp- time, we write as private dock owners to say that, believing such a scheme if properly developed will be of advantage to the port and all interested in its welfare, we are willing to consider the question of transferring our dock and railways in connection with it and the town to your authority, subject to suitable terms beiug arranged with all con- cerned and our interests amply proctected.

k Sheikh's Welsh WifeJ. 3HE DIED WHEN VICTORS CAME. rhe Story of a Mahomedan's Truble4 in England and a Hindu Ptot, which was FrustratefL 413T A LAHORE CORRESPONDENT. I It will, no doubt, be within the reoollectioi; of the general public, and particularly the lords and gentlemen connected with the fout Enns of Court, that a petition was framed in [ndia by some of the Hindu community and sent to the benchers of Gray's Inn, containing certain allegations against the Sheikh Meeran Buksh, and requesting the benchers not to accept him as a member of the honourable society or to call him to the Bar. The benchers, in consequence, called upon the Sheikh ta withdraw from the Inn, but he, being a deter< mined and a persevering man, decided to appeal: to the House of Lords, which was the only course open to him. After a period of some- thin glike two years, the case was tried before the Lord Chancellor, the late Lord Chief Justice Coleridge. and many of the judgEC/Î of the Supreme Court of Judicature, and aftejS the charges had been thoroughly and carefully; examined, on the 18th and 19th, of December* last, the learned judges unanimously came tor the conclusion that there was no foundation. whatever for the statements made against Sheikh Meeran Buksh, and gave their decision absolutely in his favour, stating at the san* time that the charges were founded on purely religious jealousy by some of the Hindu cam, munity of India, the learned Sheikh being si Mahomedan. The learned Sheikh was married to a young Welsh lady, the youngest daughter of Mr., Joseph Davies, of the Bush, St. Clears, South- Wales, and now of Penrhysfawr, Pontrhvdyfen, near Neath, the wedding and festivities} taking plaice in Liverpool tlireet years ago-tliat city being the only place in England that can boast of a Mahome-: dan mosque—and also at the registry office on the* day followng. The learned Sheikh was ex*, tremely devoted to his wife, who heiped hint in every particular in his fight, with the benchers of Gray's Inn—which, as has been stated, lasted for something like two years. However, a, few days before the trial took place in the House of Lords his beloved wife fell ill, and the Sheikhi had to leave her to attend to his duties in that House of Lords. About mid-day he sent a telegram to his wife stating that the case was? pioceeding in his favour, and he was returning; home that- evening in far better spirits than he had been for a considerable time. On the following day the learned Sheikh went again; to the House of Lords, his wife bidding him an affectionate farewell, with the words, "Gor and God bless you." A.las,! these were the lasc. words the poor Sheikh was fated to hear from, the lips of his devoted wife. In the afternoon, the Sheikh hurriedly returned in a cab hoping4 to gladdcii' hU wife's heart with the news that' he had been successful, the judges havingp decided in his favour. But his wife was dead* The funeral took place at, Bethlehem, St. Clears, in the presence of as large number of; relatives and friends, notwithstanding thai pouring rain which prevailed the whole of thai day. So much were the Mahomedan husband Sam his Welsh wife attached to each other that that young lady had embraced the faith of Islam* and was well versed in the Koran. >- During his stay in London the learned She-ikhl stayed at the house QLMr. John Davies of,f-i Doughty-street, W.C., and he is agtun-ere long expected to make -a. pilgrimage from India. toj Bethlehem, St. Clears, in order to cause the; erection of a. monument over the of his. wife. It is worthy of note that all tha; Welsh gentlemen benchers of Gray's Inn stood" by him through his troubles at Gray's Inn, par* ticularly Mr. Bowen Rowlands, Q.C., M.P.,| Mr. Jeremy. and Mr. Griffith. On returning to India after his victory, and; the sad event which accompanied it, the Sheikh; naturally met with a hearty reception from; the Anjuman-i-Islam, a large number of gentlemen even joining in the demonstration. He,, was driven from the railway station into th.. i'City of Lahore in great state, the iiumeroul". carriages forming a long procession. From thw platform down to the Sheikh's house the popu-f lace had lined themselves on both sides of thai road, forming a splendid avenue. The pro-, cession entered the city through the Delhi Gat. and stopped near the Kotwali, in order that the Sheikh might receive an address from the Kekeziasi his tribesmen, who had assembled: there in large numbers. The Sheikh, in the: course of his reply, remarked that the chiefs reason why the British Empire in India stands on a firm basis is the character of the people of England, who are distinguished for their1 love of justice and liberty. The Sheikh is now beginning his work anew, with the best wistiet; of a large circle of friends and co-religionists,? He seems to have made good use of his time in- England for he has brought letters with him.: from high personages, such as Lord Roberta, the late Lord Chief Justice Coleridge, Sir Robert Egerton, the late Sir Henry Cunning-' ham, and many others.
