TOBACCO IN VENTILATOR.
TOBACCO IN VENTILATOR. The Barry magistrates—Dr. Howell Rees and Mr J. H. Jose—on Monday heard a case in which Wyndham Henry Suffield, formerly chief mate of the ss. Ilwen. was summoned for illegally concealing 6ilbs. of tobacco in tins, the single value and duty of which was £ 2 7s 8d. The tobacco, tied in sacking, was found sus- pended in a -ventilator. Mr Harold Lloyd defended. John Henry James, an apprentice, said that he saw tins of tobacco like those seized in a trawer in the mate's room. Mr Lloyd: The owners issued a mandate that if this was not cleared up all'the officers would get the sack ?—Witness s Yes. I heard that. Other evidence was called. Defendant, who said he had been a certifi- cated master for 30 years/ denied that he knew anything about it at all. The drawer in which the tobacco was seen in his room had never been used by him, and everyone in the ship had access to it. Eventually defen ant was fined double duty (£41!Js 4d) and costs.
MERTHYR TRADERS.
MERTHYR TRADERS. The 32nd annual meeting of the Merthyr Chamber of Trade was held at the Bush Hotel on Tuesday, Dr. W. A. Jones, the retiring president, being in the chair. It was reported that the Post Office authorities at Cheltenham could not see their way to change the time of the mail from 8.40 to 8.30, and the matter was left in abeyance. Mr N. Moss moved that the Taff Vale Railway Co. be asked to run their workmen's trains to and from Merthyr instead of Pentrebach. This was agreed to. Th retir- ing President moved that Mr Henry Owen, vice-president, be elected to the chair for the ensuing year, and this was carried unani- # mously. Mr R. T. Jones was elected vice- president. The annual report stated that while, so far as actual results were concerned, there might not be much to show, yet there had been a considerable amount of continued attention given to matters which it was hoped might bear fruit. Regarding railway facilities the report stated that in the case of the Great Western Railway the Chamber was taking joint action with the Corporation, and was at the moment only waiting for a joint meeting. The Chamber was assured, however, that the matter would not be allowed to be shelved. If nothing came of the arrangements it would be the duty of the Council of the Chamber to take the matter up independently of any other body.

It disorganises the functions of nutrition, impoverishes the blood, enfeebles the nervous system, and, indeed, quite banishes happiness. This is a mere commonplace, of course, and belongs to the A.B.C. of pathology, and yet there are hundreds of people who, day in and day out, ignore the truth of it by disre- garding symptoms which point to the ex- istence of digestive trouble. The reason of this lies in the fact that indigestion is, as a rule, so very insidious in its progress. Some of its forms are not accompanied by positive pain, but often by a gradual and unsuspected diminution of vitalitv. Loss of appetite, which is one of the commonest symptoms, is rarely taken very seriously— with the result that the disorder is allowed todevelop to an alarming and sometimes to an ineradicable extent. Even when head- aches and the pangs of dyspepsia are ex- perienced it is usual to endure them with- out making any serious attempt to destroy the root cause of the trouble, in view, then, of the far-reaching effects of indi- gestion, yon should never forget that it is TO BE AVERTED BY JJ EE CHAM'S pILLS.

THE QUESTtON OF JJEALTH This is a matter which concerns you surely at one time or another, eape- ciaJlywhen Influenza is so prevalent as it is just now. It is well to know what to take to ward off an attack of this most weakening disease, to combat ib whilst under its baleful influence, and particulraly after an attack, for then the system is so lowered as to be liable to the most dangerous complaints. GWILYM -g VANS' QUININE JJITTERS is acknowledged by all who have given it a fair trial to be the best specific remedy for dealing with Influenza in all its various stages, being a Prepara- tion skilfully prepared with Quinine, and accompanied with other Blood Purifying and enriching agents, suitable for the Liver, Digestion, and all those ailments requiring Tonic strengthening and Nerve-increasing properties. It is invaluable when suffering with Colds, Pneumonia, or any serious illness or prostration caused by sleeplessness or worry of any kind, when the body has a general feeling of weakness and lassi- tude.

-=-=- King and the Oddfellows. PRESENTATION OF CENTENARY JEWEL. His Maiesty King George received at Marl- borough House on Tuesday morning a deputa- tion from the Manchester Unity of Odd- fellows, whose centenary is being celebrated this year, for the purpose of receiving the loyal address which had been prepared for presentation at the Centenary Conference at Southampton in Whit-week, and a gold jewel, which has been specially struck to commem- orate the centenary of the society. The depu- tation consisted of the Grand Master (Bro. T. Barnes, of Plymouth), the immediate Past Grand Master (Bro. E. Bourne, of Chelten- ham), and the Senior Director (P.G.M. J. Har- ford Hawkins). His Majesty received the three representatives of the society in the audience chamber. The Grand Master (Bro. T. Barnes), in presenting the address to his Majesty, expressed feelings of profound loyalty to his Majesty's throne and person, and the highest appreciation of his gracious recognition of the society's usefulness. His Majesty, hav- ing accepted the address from the hands of the Grand Master, expressed its admiration of its beauty. His Majesty added that he was most pleased to accept it. P.G.M. J. Harford Haw- kins, senior director of the society, then pre- sented his Majesty with the gold centenary jewel, specially struck in. commemoration of the event. The King accepted the jewel with evident pleasure, and then his Majesty asked the Grand Master as to the present member- ship of the society. The Grand Master informed his Majesty that the present member- ship was 1,035,000.
OUR NAVAL EXPENDITURE.
OUR NAVAL EXPENDITURE. Lord Charles Beresford's Timidity. Speaking at Haverhill (Suffolk) on Tuesday Mr F. W. Hirst, editor of the Economist," referred to Lord Charles Beresford's recent letter to the Prime Minister as a painful ex- ample of the timidity which frequently over- came military and naval heroes late in life. If Nelson had lived long en ugh he would pro- bably have become a three-standard man, and would have put all his money in the United'States for fear of a French or Spanish invasion. It was high time that taxpayers who had anything to lose should protest against this unlimited waste of money upon armaments. He had heard with great satisfaction of a strong Tory who, after filling up his super-tax form, remarked to his solicitor, Don't you think that perhaps we are spending too much on Dreadnoughts ?" If the British Admiralty, after spending for the last 10 or 12 years treble as much as the German, still demanded more, a competent board should be put in their place ? He believed that with more econo- mical control 10 per cent. of our naval and military expenditure could be saved. The profits of the contractors were often out- rageous. A big naval loan might send Consols to 75.
CARDIFF ARCHITECT'S HOLIDAY
CARDIFF ARCHITECT'S HOLIDAY The sequel to a Cardiff gentleman's summer holiday at the pretty Carmarthenshire seaside resort of Pendine were heard at Narberth County Court on Monday before Mr E. Milner Jones (deputy judge). Ebenezer Evans, of the Green Bridge Hotel, Pendine, sued George E. Robinson, architect and civil engineer, Charles-street, Cardiff, for 29s 9d balance due on a bill of E8 4s 9d for three weeks' hotel expenses in August. Defendant conducted his own case, and said he was charged tor time when he was not at the hotel. Counsel for plaintiff said preparations had to be made whether defendant was at the hotel or not. His Honour commented on the small charge of 4s 6d a day for defendant and his daughter, and gave judgment for plaintiff for the full amount and costs. Defendant said he was willing to pay what was proper, and announced his intention to appeal against the decision.

SUSTAINED BROKEN BACK. A verdict of "Accidental death," was re- turned at an inquest held on Tuesday at Mountain Ash by Mr R. J. Rhys. Daniel Leharne (32), who died at the Mountain Ash Cottage Hospital on Saturday.

The story of the accident was given by Joseph Harris, a master haulier at the colliery, and was to the effect that de- ceased was taking a full tram out when the horse took fright and ran awsy.

8 DR. BLACK JONES AND MISS 6WLADYS G. TENNANT. Llangammarch Wells parish church was the scene of a fashionable wedding on Tuesday afternoon, the bridegroom being Mr William Black Jones, M.D., B.8c., ,J.P., Rahere Lodge, Llangammarch Wells, and the bride, Miss Gwladys Gwenllian Tennant, of Aberavon and Llangammarch Wells. The bridegroom, the elder son of the late Rev. W. M. Jones, D.D. (London) and Mr8 Theodora W. Jones, of Llangammarch Wells, is one of the most popular public men in North Breconshire, and the bride is the youngest daughter of Mr Marmaduke Tennant, J.P., town clerk of Aberavon. Floral arches had been erected by the villagers, and bunting was freely displayed. I The Rev. E. Davies, B.A., vicar of Aberavon, and the Rev. J. Evans, M.A., rector of Llan- gammarch Wells, were the officiating clergy. There was a large congregation of friends and well-wishers. The hymn, The Voice That Breathed O'er Eden," was sung as the bridal party entered the ancient edifice, the bride leaning on the arm of her father. The service was fully choral, and, in addition to an appropriate anthem, two further hymns were rendered viz., 0 Love Divine, How Sweet Thou Art," and" O. Perfect Love." The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a dress of white Irish poplin em- broidered with floss silk, and a veil of old Brussels lace f el I in ample folds over filets of orange flowers and buds entwined with myrtle and white heather.

rHouse Agents' Action.
r House Agents' Action. "JOHN BULL" SUED FOR LIBEL In the King's Bench Division on Monday Mr Justice Ridley and a special jury had before them an action for alleged libel brought by Messrs Carter and Skinner, house agents, of Walter House, Strand, against "John Bull" (limited) and the publishers of John Bull." Plaintiffs sued in respect of what they alleged to be unfounded criticisms of the business methods of Messrs Carter and Skinner. The defence was that the statements complained of were true, in so far as they were statements of fact, and fair, in so far as they were comment. Mr McCall, K.C., for the plaintiffs, said that Carter and Skinner carried on a considerable business in introducing people to boarding- house and private hotel keepers, from whom they received a commission for the introduc- tion. In September, 1909, Mr Carl Szialgyi, of Buda Pesth. applied to plaintiffs to find rooms for his two daughters. Plaintiffs acted on this letter, advertising for two consecutive days. On October 16th "John Bull" published the statements complained of in a paragraph containing the following :— The constant repetition of these advertise- ments (counsel reminded the jury that the advertisement hn'1 only appeared twice) shows that the Austran family cannot be very easily pleaseu, but they afford tempta- tion to hundreds of poor people, to whom four guineas are an important incen- tive. These prospective victims make a pilgrimage to Walter House, and are invited to fill in a form. The sum of 5s or 10s is then extracted from them, and they hear no more about the matter. We express our doubts about the existence of any particular Austrian family having given serious instructions to offer four guineas at all. If we are mistaken we shall be glad to have full particulars from the firm in order that we may extend our inquiries to Austria,. The publication of this, said counsel, did much damage to plaintiffs' business. Mr Bertie Carter, a partner in the plaintiff firm, gave a_total denial to the suggestion that plaintiffs hacl taken money for introduction to the Austrian family from people outside the stipulated radius without telling such people of the stipulation. All the people who replied to the advertisement and paid the fee necessary to get on to plaintiffs' books had an oppor- tunity of seeing Szialgyi's letter, and in return for all such fees plaintiffs gave introduction for a year. Other witnesses having been called for the plaintiffs, the case for the defence was pre- sented to the jury. Witnesses from Acton, Harringay, Greenwich and Clapton were called, who said that they replied to Messrs Carter and Skinner's advertisement with reference to the Austrians, and paid their fee of 10s 6d with- out being informed of the stipulation as to locality contained in the Austrians' letter. The hearing was adjourned. A verdict for the plaintiffs, with damages assessed at one farthing, was returned on Tuesday.
Young Man & Chancellor.
Young Man & Chancellor. SCENE OUTSIDE CITY TEMPLE. Arising out of a disturbance at the City Temple on Monday, on the occasion of Mr Lloyd George's speech, Victor Duval (2d), engineer, residing at Park-road, Wandsworth, was charged at the Guildhall on Tuesday with using threatening language calculated to provoke a breach of the peace. Inspector Jones said on Monday night, he was on duty outside the City Temple with other officers awaiting the arrival of Mr Lloyd George. As the Chancellor got out of his car, defendant put his hand over a sergeant's shoulder and caught hold of the Chancellor's coat, at the same time saying, Lloyd George, you are a traitor and a villain Fearing a breach of the peace, witness took Duval into custody. The Magistrates' Clerk Mr Lloyd George takes no action —Witness No he does not wish to bother. Defendant asked for an adjournment to call witnesses to prove that he used no threatening language* He denied calling Mr Lloyd George a traitor and a villain. He put a question to him on women's suffrage. The Alderman Will you consent to enter into recognisances not to cause a disturbance in the street ? Defendant I could not enter into recog- nisances for I never make a disturbance in the street. The Alderman adjourned the case until Mon- day. George Jacobs (69),agent, of Maze-road, Kew Gardens, was next charged with disorderly conduct, assaulting the police, and attempt- ing to rescue Duval. He denied the charge, alleged that the police were brutal to Duval, and also applied for an adjournment to call witnesses. His application was granted. The defendant Victor Duval is hon. secretary of the Men's Political Union for Women's Enfranchisement, and George Jacobs a mem* ber of that society.
WELSH MOUNTAIN TRAGEDY.
WELSH MOUNTAIN TRAGEDY. The death of Mr George Anton Stbop, a Manchester cotton yarn salesman, 27 years of acre, who was killed on Sunday on Garn Mouu- tain,was inquired into on Tuesday by a coroner and jury. It appeared that the party pro- ceeded on Sunday to climb Y Garn, the height of which is.given as 3,100 feet. All were ex- perienced climbers, especially deceased. At a height of two or three hundred feet difficulties arose more than once, which caused Mr Stoop, who led, to signal to his companions to return to a grass sloping ledge. No sooner had they reached there than a sound of falling rock attracted their attention. Deceased, appear- ing as if he had leapt from above, came down head foremost and alighting on the grassy l<?d^e rolled again downward. The rope be- came taut and snapped with almost a clean eut, with the cesult that Mr Stoop was precipi- tated in a gully below, a depth of 60 feet. His injuries included a compound fracture of the skull. According to one witness a stone must have knocked deceased from above, which caused him to jump, and the rope must, when the strain came upon it, have been caught by one of the large blocks. A verdict of Acci- dental death' was returned. The remains were buried in Llanllyfni parish .churchyard.
POPULAR ART.
POPULAR ART. An art problem had to be decided by his Honour Judge Bray at Shoreditch County Court on Tuesday. This was the position :—Finsbury stationers, Bell, Rickard and Co., said that Miss Morris, a Holborn artist, had spoiled 6,300 postcards in tinting them Miss Morris said the cards could certainly not be tinted better at the price of 10s per 1,000. Criticisms made by the plaintiffs in regard to some of the cards were :— Cleopatra's Needle: Water must not be green. Horse Guards Too much splash. In the Park: Trees too green. New Sessions House Too yellow. An expert pointed out that the work of an R.A. could not be expected at the rate of 10s ] per 1,000 and judgment was given for the artist.

-.--SON CHARGED WITH HOUSEBREAKING
SON CHARGED WITH HOUSEBREAKING A Cardiff father found himself in the awkward position of having to prosecute his eldest son on Tuesday for housebreaking. The accused was Arthur Edwards, and the charge against him was that he broke into the house at 46, Metal street, in the occupation of Edwin Edwards, and stole 3s 6d, aiso two sovereigns belonging to Margaret Roberts. The father told the Deputy-Stipendiary that the house was broken into on Sunday even- ing;when the family had gone out. His house- keeper, Margaret Roberts, missed two sover- eigns from her purse, which had been put in a drawer in her bedroom. His son had got married 13 months ago, and had only been once back at the house. He then used a latch key, which he had never returned. The housekeeper, who said she was a widow, stated that whoever got into the house left by the kitchen window, as the flower pots were taken off the sill. Detective-Sergeant Rosscr said he went to see young Edwards at Severn-road on Monday 1 evening. Prisoner at first denied that he had a key to the house, but afterwards produced one. On the way to the Roath Police Station he said I am sorry I did not think of the seriousness of the offence. I had some bills lo meet this morning, and I went with tha key and took the money." In answer to the charge witnesss eaid prisoner replied I took the money but I did not realise it was housebreak- ing. seeing that it was my father's house." Mr Francis emphasised the fact that the father had no animus in the matter and he wished the case to be dealt with that day. Prisoner was committed to take his trial at the Assizes, bail being allowed.
