Fight with htrudcr. StR W. S. ALBERT IN A SCRtMMACE. The sensational story of a burglary at the house of Sir W. S. Gilbert was told at the Wealdstone (Middlesex) Petty Sessions on Tues- day, when Frank Burgess, a well-dressed man, was charged with burglary at Grimsdyke, the residence of Sir William on the 9th inst. When the accused was discovered in the house, Sir- William went to the assistance of his servants and Burgess was secured. The police were telephoned for and the man, who had been bound with ropes, was taken in Sir William's motor-car to the police station. Sir William.. who is a J.P. for Middlesex, sat on the bench, but retired before the case came on. Alice Tee, a lady's maid, said that at about five o'clock she discovered the accused hiding behind her bedroom door. When he saw her he came out and tried to œcape downstairs. John Warrilow, the butler, related how he saw the accused coming downstairs, how he stopped him, and after a severe straggle, in which the footman, the gardener, and others assisted, the prisoner was secured and bound. In his pocket was a purse identified by the maid as belonging to her. The accused was committed for trial to the Middlesex Quarter Sessions. The prisoner was then further charged with housebreaking at the residence of Sir William Crump, Glenthome, Harrow Weald. When he was arrested at Sir W. S. Gilbert's a gold watch was found upon him, and this was now identified by Crissie Davies, a cook at Glenthome, as her property. It was stolen, she stated, from her bedroom some time in March. It was stated that when the accused was arrested he satd, I have a watch on-me which I stole from Sir William Crump's jast down the road about a fortnight ago." When captured he was wearing gloves and bad his boots off. Helen Jones, a housemaid at Glenthome. stated that she had missed two purses-and contents from her bedroom. The accused was sent for trial on all the changes.

CYFARTHFA PARK AND CASTLE. At a meeting of the Finance Committee of Merthyr Corporation on Tuesday, Councillor T. Williams (chairman) presiding, it was re- ported that the Secretary of State had for- warded to the Local Government Board a certificate that during the year ended 29th September, 1909, the managementandrefSctency of} the Borough Police Force and the ad- ministration of the pension fund were satis- factory. 4 Dpon an account being submitted from Mr R. J. Rhys, borough coroner, for fees and m e allowanee, the question was raised whether inquests should be held in public- houses if other suitable ptaces were avaiklble, The Chairman remarked that the committee could adopt a recommendation that inquests ought not to be held in pnbUc-bocses, but it was another matter whether it would be carried out. Councillor J. W. Lewis said that steps ought to be taken to centralise the hold- ing of inquests inasmuch as the kroner was paid by mileage. It was agreed that <h& questions raised be referred to the Watch Committee for their consideration. Alderman Berry criticised various itemsof. expenditure in connection with Cyiarthfa. Park, and the chairman remarked that the amount spent upon the maintenance of the Park would bean eye-opener to the ratepayers. Alderman D. W. Jones said that members who now seemed to object to the expenditure had, agreed to the improvements being carried out at the Park. At a later stage the Borough Controller (Mr Harris) presented a statement showing the amount so far expended upon the Park and Castle was JE2.425, dEl,785 of which remained, changeable, after deducting receipts. CoonciDm" Isaac Edwards Which is equal to a rate of ]Jd. Alderman D. W. Jones remarked that it was not fair to say that it meant a rate of l?d, as it was proposed to obtain loans for most, of the items of expencBtore.

There were 66 deaths, equivalent to 9.8. This was the lowest death rate recorded during the last 20 years. Only nine infanta under one year of age had died, giving a rate of 38.62. The infantile mortality was the lowest ever recorded in the district. Four persons died from consumption. Owmgto tho slackness of trade in the district there wero over 100 houses unoccupied atthe present time, but there was a large number of badly constructed houses in the distinct, and tito Council had not properly supervised tbetp erection. The houses were very damp and draughty in the winter m<xo?hs. The rents were much too high for the working classes. He urged the Council to proceed with a proper system of sewage disposal, as the brooks in the district were now only open sewers.

Fashion and Things Feminine. By Miss IDA MELLER. Becoming Modes for Stout Figures. Striped materials are prevalent nmong fashions of the new season. nanncis, cloth stuffs, and silks showing a wide range of plain and fancy stripes in various widths. Very pretty are the new delaines for blouses and dresses. showing biscuit-tinted grounds traced with coloured flowers meandering over silky-looking stripes and certain to be popular are the .grey dress-flannels, striped with deeper tones of the same neutral colour and fine lines of white or pale blue. Women of mature years will doubtless ob- serve with pleasure thQ, new silks striped in black and white, particularly becoming bemg the half-inch stripes, which, if well made up and arranged, suit stout figures so well. Clever dressmakers are capable of manipulating these striped silks in a manner that tones down a figure, as it were and to obtain a similar effect in a bodice cut low and nlled in with a yoke or vest. they exercise the greatest care in the shaping of the decolletage, for it is well- known that the slope of a low cut bodice can do agreat deal towards giving a fairly slim appearance to a, ngure verging on stoutness. The bodice cut low after the fashion of a waist- coat, with long roll-collar faced with black, can generally be relied on to prove becoming to the stout woman, whereas she should shun the short line in dress, and never wear a bodice with yoke cut and sbort, but should cultivate sloping effects with length, and study carefully the draping of nchus, the folds of which by their arrangement can do much to detract from an uncomely appearance of the figure. The princess dresa sketched suggests a style very suitable to figures inclined to be sbout— for which type of physique it has been expressly designed, a secret of the success of the scheme being the deep square collar that covers the bust-line, together with the low, slender shape of the decoHetage. This dress suits cloth, cashmere or Shantung silk. The front should be braided or embroidered, and the collar is worked to match, the material joined by hair-pin stitches. A guimpe of ecru tace 811s in the neck. About six yards of double-width material will be required for the making of the dress. The New Steevetess Coat. The tulle toque appears in a novel form this season when it takes upon itself the shape of the well-known turban worn by Asiatics. The turban toque needs careful wearing and skilful making, and is seen at its best, perhaps, in black tulle, though good effects are also ob- tained by turbans, of pale pink or pale blue tulle, the cross-folds being outlined with a fine black cord or line of jet beads. TuUe is to be worn a greatdeaJ daring the com- ing months, and very channing toques of tur- ban character are made with brown tulle. Few materials are more becoming than this soft, diaphanous substance, which is worn, too, round the throat and arranged in a fluffy bow either under the chin oral the back of the neck. The back trimming, by She way, is a fea- t,ure of the newest milEnery fashions, the re- presentative hat being tamed up high at the ba/ck and trimmed with flowers or ribbons, or having the brim-edge merely turned up an inch or so ail round, and a huge bow of tulle or ribbon asserting itself at the back of the hat, the loops attending out very wtde so that they aM conspiTOous from a front view. The colour that is making a strong bid for favour is green, more especially in its lighter shades of emerald and "Lincoln "—shades that the brunet.te cam generally wear with success. The overcoat of Lincoln green frieze and the jumper frock of ivy green taffetas may be sin- gled out for special comment. Then again, little touches of green at the neck and waist of a black or natural-coh)urod tussore dress are deEghtfuI. A green silk tie with ends almost to the waist is very smart looking on a btouse of natural tussore, and a new and pretty p4ece of neckwear is made of a high, shaped coUar of guipure trhnmed with green velvet One of the prettiest conceits of the season is the sleeveless coat, made-of cloth. Shantung, lace—what you wilL It is absolutely simple, consisting merely of two fronts and a back, caught together under the afma for a distance of a few inches only, the ends hanging separ- ate. See the picture of one sach coat herewith. The origmal is carried out in light tan-coloured Shantung silk, bordered with black and gold galon, and the fronts fasten with a single large jet button. The amount of material required ior the coat is li yards, 48 inches wide. A Hint on !rwnhg. In iroming pocket-handkerchiefs and other small articles, such as a many girl geta up for herself, thus saving laundry expenses, care must be taken that the articles are slightly damp but not too wet. If ironed when quite dry the creases will not be smoothed out as they should be, while if the linen, etc., ia too? wet when ironed, the iron will leave a dirty mark on the surface, and this win necessitate., ,Washing the linen over again. iI'

NO SiGN OF COOK'S ASCENT. New York. Tuesday.—News has just been received at Fairbanks, Alaska, that the Fair- banks Expedition to ascend Mount McKinley reached the summit on the 3rdinst. After a climb lasting one month from the moment of leaving the base no traces were found of Dr. Cook's alleged ascent. A previous message from the party received at Seattle on the 4th inst. stated that at < the time of despatch they bad reached an elevation of 12.000 feet without having en- countered any great dimculty. At that point they had found themselves confronted with an almost perpendicular ice wall stretching more than 4.000 feet towards the summit. After .search, however, the cHmbers had found a gap in the wail.—Renter.

í ???B?M ????????????M ??EK? Vegetables and Fruit. When Tomato seedlings appear they should be fully exposed to the light—on a shelf near the glass-and air should be freely admitted in order to maka them strong and sturdy. Be- fore they begin to crowd one another they should be transferred singly to small pots of rather rich soil. As they grow they will re- quire larger pots, and each time they should be sun& a little deeper. Tomatoes have the power of rooting along their stems, and the additional roota induced by gradually lowering them in the soil help to strengthen them. Like most other vegetables they shooid never be grown in the same soil in two suc- cessive years, for it is in this way that eel- worms. the worst pest of the Tomato-grower, are passed on from crop to crop. If the leaves droop more or less suddenly, and without ap- parent cause begin to nag, it is generally a safe conclusion that eel-worms are present. There is then nothing to be done except burn the plants and thoroughly disinfect the house. A very important point in any kind of Tomato cultivation is pollination. Experi- ments have proved that the amount of pollen placed on each stigma has an important influ- ence on the form and size of the fruit. The pollen should be spread all over the stigma, using for the operation a camel's hair brush, and carefully pollinating every separate ftower. Tapping the stems during the Sower- ing season so that the pollen is shaken free is a method which may serve, but is uncer- tain. The operation of brush pollination does not take long, and if thoroughly performed it ensures a crop of full sized well-formed fruit. Early Turnips may now be sown on a sunny border, and a few Radish seeds may be scat- tered amongst the Turnips, if not prevented every seed wilt be pulled up by birds in a very short time. To prevent this cover the bed with a small meshed fish-net, or coat the seed with powdererd red lead. The seed can be placed in a smajl newer-pot and water poured over it to wet it, plugging the hole at the bottom with the finger, which can also act to regulate the exit of the water wthout letting the seed escape. A pinch or two of the powder should be sprinkled over the s€ed, and a rag over the mouth of the pot to prevent the seeds coming out as they are being shaken to them well over. Garden Peas should now or during the next week or two be sown freely, the main crop and late kinds being principally employed. These strong-growing varieties must be allowed rather more room than the earlies— three inches or even four inches between the seeds, though if there is any doubt about the vitality of the latter, owing to the unfavour- able season of last year, sow a litUe more thickly, and thin out the plants subsequently, as may be found to be necessary. Look after early-sown rows now up, or coming through. When plants are about six inches high mould should be drawn up to each side of the row, and supports placed in position. The depths of drills and their distances apart for Onions, Carrots, Parsnips, Lettuce, Peas, Broad Beans and Spinach are as follow: Onions, half an inch deep, eight inches apart; Carrots, half an inch deep, nine inches from each other Parsnips, one inch, fifteen inches ditto; Lettuce half an inch deep, twerve apart; Broad Beans, two and a half in the ground, three feet apart; Peas, three inches deep, six feet apart for tall growers, three feet for medium growers, eighteen inches for dwarf kinds; Spinach oneinch deep and twelve inches apart. Rows should run, if possible, north and south. Parsnips are best grownin groups of three seeds, twelve inches apart in rows of eighteen inches asunder, the plants being after- wards reduced to one in each place. In the Ftewer harden. Pinks may be advisedly chosen for planting on rockeries, not so much for the size and quality of the Sowers as for the bold masses of blossom that look so pretty and appro- priate there. The present is a good time for planting flowers. The Pink is impatient of a water-logged soil, and they will be quite safe on the rockery. Although the plants will grow in very poor soil in borders, it is ad- visable to provide a fairly good rooting medium for them on rockeries. But they will grow and newer profusely in such situations in very inferior loam. As soon *as the runÍn.g of esis com- plated, a little attention to the soil in which they are rooted will be desirable. The surface of the land over-tying the roots should be pricked lightly over, an inch or so deep. Then a light mulching of short, sweet manure should be-dressed on top. A week or two later a complete concentrated fertiEser adapted to the needs of the Rose should be sprinkled sparingly over the surface and washed in with the water-can. Or the dose may be given in the form of weak liquid maMtre. In any case the application shotttd be moderate in strength and in quantity, and the soil should be damp when the manure is appHed. When haM-hardy seedlings Me large enough for handling they can be picked or dibbled in a spare portion of the seed-frame, or they can be transferred to the plant honse to be pla<ced near the Irght, and shaded for a tone from snn heat until their roots are sufBciently increased. After about six weeks they may be potted finally into 6-in. pots, and plunged out of door among coal ashes or any convenient material discouraging to worms. As to soil the ligbi-coioured !oam abounding in Qhre is the most desirable to select and keep, as it forms the staple ingredient for a variety of plants grown in pots. Together with peat soil and sand secured from some dry part, this is suoicient for most purposes. Three parts loam, one part peat soil, and a. sprink- ling of clean sand form a capital mixture for a number of pot plants. Violets from Citings. Viotet cuttings in nve-inch pots, containing a light free soil and plunged in a. gentle bot- tom heat will now root easily. When rooted each cutting should be potted singly into a three-inch pot, using turfy loam and weU- -decayed manure in equal parts. When estab- lished the young plants may be removed to a cool frame having a warm aspect, and until accnstomed to their new situation it will be advisable to keep the plants close for a time. The plants will then. by the middte of May, be ready to be planted out in a shady bed or border in rows a few inches apart, and the same distance between the rows some leaf- mould should be mixed with the loamy com- post, and a partiaJly shaded position selected. The plants will need very littie attention beyond keeping them free from weeds, and watering in very dry weather until the end of August, when they should be taken up with a ball of earth, and repotted into pots from five to seven inches in diameter, using the same compost as before, with the addition of a little sharp sand pot firmly and drain well. The cool frame may again be resorted to, and the plants placed on inverted pots. The lights innne weather must be taken off alto- gether, and only put on again to protect the plants on wet or severe frosty days, and be again removed at every opportunity. A fre- quent supply of water will be necessary, but care must be taken not to wet the leaves too much.

Wetsh Redusc's End. tNQUEST STORY IN LONDON. The death of the lonely travelling book- seller. Joseph Dobson (57), so well-known in Glamorganshire and in other parts of South WaJes, was the subject of a coroner's inquiry at Islington. London, on Tuesday afternoon. The deceased, who was bom in Yorkshire, had lived at least 20 years in Glamorganshire. Recently he came to London and started in business at Islington. He was found dead on his premises on Friday with a gaspipe in his mouth. Nothing had been seen of him for nine weeks, and the neighbours supposed that ) he had gone back to South Wales. where he had for many years been engaged in business as a colporteur. Nellie Metcalfe. a married woman, of 46, Ganton Mount. Leeds, whose husband was at one time an assistant to the deceased, identi- fied the body. Dohson was a bankrupt stock buyer, and had neither servant nor wife. He had lived at Liverpool, but previously to com- ing to London had been living in Wales. Arthur Henry Bailey, auctioneers' porter. spoke to working with the deceased, said the latter sold goods and he removed them. The Coroner's Otucer said be found the deceased in bed. The gas had been connected with the floor below, and by means of a flexible tube he bad drawn the gas on to his face in bed. The chimney was stuffed up by blankets and on the floor were a number of letters relating only to business matters. Dr. George Russell Beardmore stated that deceased died from carbonic oxide poisoning or coal gas poisoning. The body was lying in a natural position on the bed, and it was evident that he had held the tube to his mouth and then when came, his hand dropped. Apparently the tube had been held to his mouth. The body was well-preserved, because coal gas was", preservative and would keep bodies for perhaps two or three months. The Coroner Do you think this was an act done by himself ? Witness Yes, a most deliberate thing. Elizabeth Ann Metcalfe, of 66, Estccurt- road, Watford, was called, and said she saw the deceased, a relative, on the 9th February— Ash Wednesday. He was looking very ill indeed. He talked of going to Australia. The Coroner Did he say anything about his money ?—Yes, he asked me to look after it. He had got enough to go on with ?—Yes. Mr Ward, one of the agents of the bouse, said there was enough stock there to provide for the funeral. The Coroner You must not go to excessive expense. The jury returned a verdict of Death whilst of unsound mind."

LABOUR EXOHANGES & MINEftS Mr Keir Hardie asked the President of the Roard of Trade whether any decision had yet been come to on the question of establishing a central labour exchange for the mining areas of South Wales. Mr Sydney Buxton I have considered the matter, and I do not think that any useful purpose would be served by establishing a separate central labour exchange for the min- ing industry, but in the mining districts where the exchanges, such as those at Merthyr and Pontypridd, may deal largely with miners, I am considering the possibility of setting aside & special registration room for miners.
