Plaintiff and his friends took bim into ^ne inn and bathed his forehead. William came 'n after him. They after- wards asked John Morris to enter plaintiff's trap and 90 with them.

While he was re- monstrating one of 20 men who had come along with Morris struck plain- tiff ) the back of the head. plaintiff's hat was knocked off.

F. Awdry, solicitor, Birmingham, tha re- ceiver appointed in the application 1 y the warden of the College of the Souls of All Faithful People Deceased, of Oxford (the owners of the tithe). The applioant then called upon the occupier of Glyncoch to give, amongst other things, the amount of rent due, if any when his tenancy commenced whether there was any written agreement of tenancy whether he was an annual tenant, and the special terms, if any, of his tenancy. The judge had ordered the tenant to attend and produce the whole of the documents referred to in the sum- mons. It was now explained that the occupier had not received notice, otherwise he would have been in attendance at the previous court.—His Honour now stated that if the occupier attended the court in December he would consider the re- mission of the fine. On the rising of the court at 6.50 Mr James John called his Honour's attention to the fact that ivnotire had be^n served under section 4 of the Tithe Act, 1893 (rule 30), requiring the trnst's of Bethlehem Congregational Chapel, the owners of Cefllyscyfarnog, St. dear's, the Rev.

GLAMORGANSHIRE ASSIZES.
GLAMORGANSHIRE ASSIZES. FOURTH DAY'S PROCEEDINGS. Yesterday the Glamorgan Assizes were resumed in the Crown Court, Town-liall, Cardiff—before Mr Justice Richard Benn Collins. EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF A LABOURER. A labourer named David Edwards (29) pleaded guilty to having, on November 3rd, set fire to a cow-house, in the possession of Lewis Williams, at Llanfabon, with intent to injure him, and was sentenced to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. SWANSEA MANSLAUGHTER CASE. Edward iitzgerald (34), carpenter, Swansea, was charged with the manslaughter of Charlotte Ann Hopkins, at Oystermouth, on September 15th. Prisoner pleaded not guilty.—Mr L. M. Rellar(Is appeared for the prosecution, and Mr S. T. Evans, M.P., defended. In opening the case, Mr Richards stated that on the 15th September the deceased woman, Mrs Hopkins, was serving in the bar of her husband's public house. The prisoner came into tho house In company with another man and asked for drmk. She refused to serve the liquor, and the prisoner became violent. She asked him to leave the house, and proceeded to "show" Ittrn to the door. As she was returning from the door prisoner struck her a blow on the head, which knocked her against the balustrade. That evening the effects of the blow did not assert themselves, but on the following day the woman cot worse. Medical men were called in, but she died the following Monday morning, the direct cause of death being epileptic fits conse- quent upon shock. Wm. Hopkins. landlord of the Currant Tree Inn. Oystermouth, Imsbsnd of the deceased, said on Friday evening he remembered the prisoner coming m about 8 o'clock accompanied byanother man. Prisoner's companion asked for two glasses of ale, and his wife served one only, stating that she thought prisoner had had enough already. Witness then went to get his supper, and almost immediately he heard a scuffling. He returned to the bar, and from a complaint by his wife witness followed the prisoner and knocked him down. When he returned his wife was excited and frightened. From that evening until Mon- day, when she died, his wife was continually getting worse. Charles Quick, a confectioner, of wansea, who was present when the disturbance took place, said he saw the prisoner strike deceased with his right hand, knocking her against the balustrade. It was the right side of the head that came in contact with the wood. He did not consider the blow a very violent one. Cross-examined by Mr 3. T. Evans The blow was not such, as in witness's opinion, would leave anv mark. Sidney Rudd, a baker, residing in High-street, Swansea, said he was in company of the last witness, and saw prisoner strike deceased with his closed fist. The blow must have been pretty violent to have knocked old lady against the bannisters. In reply to a juryman. witness said the deceased's head was about 3iu. from the bannister as she was going past. Helen Gulliver, dressmaker, Brunswick-street, Swansea, also spoke to having seen prisoner strike deceased. P.C. John Griffiths said be arrested prisoner at the Mumbles, and in reply to the charge of doing bodily harm, prisoner said, "I didn't intend doing any harm to her. I was weak and excited and she was coming behind me, and as I thought she was going to push me down I turned back and hpld up my hand against my face to defend my- self." Prisoner also said he had nothing to say against the woman. Cross-examined, witness said prisoner had just returned from sea to find his wife in custody on a charge of felony, and he had taken some drink in consequence. Inspector Mel lor, Mumbles, said prisoner told him he didn't hit the deceased, and later on, when charged with manslaughter, he said, I deny that, anyway, and that is all I have to say." Cross-examined, witness did not say he thought deceased was going to push him. Dr. Beavan, Mumbles, said he visitsd deceased before death, and found on her right temple a slight mark and slight swelling. She had epileptic fits before she died. There was no mark on the left side of the head. On making a post mortem examination he did not find any other injury except that on the right tempie, and he believed the cause of death was epileptic fits caused by the blow, Cross-examined, witness said he did not dis- cover any injury to the brain. There being no mark on the side on which the blow was struck, the blow could not have been a severe one. He had never known of such a case, or of death having ensued in a similar way. Dr. Keen, assistant to Dr. Baa van, also gave evidence. No witnesses were called for the defence. The jury found prisoner guilty, but recom- mended him to mercy owing to the peculiar cir- cumstances of the case. The judge, addressing prisoner, said no doubt a severe blow had been struck, but prisoner probably did not anticipate such serious results. Taking into consideration that and the fact that prisoner had undergone two IL months'imprisonment already, he would pass the lowest possible sentence, namely, one month s hard labour. The Court then adjourned till to-day.
CHARGE OF AIDING AND ABETTING…
CHARGE OF AIDING AND ABETTING DISMISSED. At the Cardiff Borough Police-court yester- day a young man named John Hewitson was summoned for aiding and abetting Daniel Dew in carrying on a shebeen at 23, Peel-street, on Sunday, October 22nd.— Mr Frank Williams appeared to defend.— P.C. Ben. Davies deposed to watching the house on the morning of the day in question, and seeing defendant taking three 414 .gallon casks of beer to 23, Peel-street. He also noticed defendant bring the empty casks away. Several persons were in the house at the time. Defendant as- sisted his uncle, who at the time oarried on the business of a licensed beer dealer.—Mr F. Williams submitted that if a person purchased a cask of beer from a dealer and it was delivered by hIs servant in the course of his duties, then, he maintained, the latter was not aiding and abetting within the meaning of the Act. The servant was not the actual person concerned, and had reaped no benefit. Detendant was then called and said that his unola had held a bear licence and engaged him as a haulier. The fiist cask of bef-r was ordered by a Mrs Lewis, the second by ki Ginger Annie," but he did not know the name of the person who purchased the third cask.—By theStipendiary He had seen Daniel Dew about the street, but otherwise did not know him. He was positive he did not see him on the 22nd of October. Witness was aware that Daw had been convicted for selling beer without a licence, and that he had undergone a term of three months imprisonment. He did not know where Dew lived at the time of the sentence, and had known 23 Peel-street for the last tlileo or four months.—The Stipendiary It is clear that he supplied the beer which was llllicitly sold, and that of course was aiding and abetting-. I think that he had knowledge of that purpose, for he must have known from his knowledge of the previous occupier of the house of its character and from what he saw that the beer was being supplied for the purpose of illicit sale. I believe, how- ever, that he did not see Daniel Dew on the Sunday named, and therefore, although he was aiding and abetting in the illicit sale of beer, ho did not aid and abet Dew. The summons must accordingly be dismissed.
IFINE OF £ 200.
FINE OF £ 200. Daniel D.lw, aged 39, was summoned at Cardiff police-court, yesterday, for selling beer with- out a licence at 23, Peel-street, on the 22nd of October and the 5th of Novelllber.-P.O.¡ Green and Ben Davies proved the' case, acd Inspector Hayward f recording previous convictions against defendant, the Stipen- diary remarked that it was evident defendant intended setting the law at defiance. He would be fined £ 100 and costs for the first offence, or three months' imprisonment, and £ 100 and cost3 or three months for the second, the terms of imprisonment to run consecutively,—Mr Frank Williams appeared for the defence.
ALLEGED ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE.
ALLEGED ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE. Three women, respectively named Louisa Ler- well, Jane Meath, and Eliza Bridge,, were yesterday charged at tha Cardiff Iolice-conrt- before the stipendiary (Mt' l. W, Lewis) and Dr, Paine—-with stealing £ 6 10s in gold and 7s m silver from the person of a seaman named John Gulnright, at 19, Nelson-street, on the the 16th instant. The women were also charged with assaulting bira. The prosecutor said that he went to the house in question with the woman Lerwell and found two other women and two men there. He P»'d for some beer, after which both the women and inen all set upon him and f,ave him such a hammering that he didn't know what he was doing, besides taking his money out of his pockets. Inspector Hayward asked for a remand pending the arrest of tlio two men referred to, and the prisoners were remanded for a week.

Aucajano's leg has slightly filled, and he did nothing beyond walking exercise on Thursday. Mr McCalmont's yearling colt by St. Simon out of Plaisanterie, and consequently an own brother of C'lildwick, has been renamed Reconteur. Tiie youngster cost 3,000 guineas at the bloodstock sales at Doncaster last September. The Sun states that an action against the executors of tiie late Mr Abington Baird wiil shortly come before the courts, in which some ex- traordinary disclosures are promised. The plaintiff makes a heavy claim for services rendered the deceased, although of what nature has not yet transpired. The Manchester Corporation have planted 1,000 king carp in one of their reservoirs at Walley Bridge. A dinner is to be given to the IJarl of Dtin- raven, owner of Molly Morgan and The Valkyrie. It will take place at the r-ports club o. Dccnnher 11th, aud thePrinco of Wales has promised to be present. Mr C. B. Fry, of Wadham College, when a I freshman at Oxford, obtained th" proud dis- tinction of getting his Blue in three depart- ments of sport, viz cnckpt, football, and athletics. He is now a triple eaptiun, having just been elected to succeed Mr L. O. H. Palairet in the captaincy of the cnck«t club. He had previouffy been appointed president of the athletic club and captain of the Association foot- ball team. This is a distinction of which the amateur long-jump champion may well be proud. The strength of the fields at the Derby Meet- ing this weeklies been well maintained from stprt to finish, and on Thursday the large number of 102 horses were seen out, thus eclipsing the totals of the two preceding afternoons. Altogether there have been 267 run. ners during the three days—70 on Tuesday, 95 on Wednesday, and 102 on Thursday. This shows a considerable increase upon the figures for the corresponding maeting last year, when the throe day's racing brought out 207 competitors.
--------THE RECORDS OF OLD…
THE RECORDS OF OLD CARDIFF. WHO MR GREEN WAS. A correspondent, signing himself "D.W., London," savs:Tii,-i writer of the interesting article, on "The Records of Old Cardiff," in your Wednesday's issue, after telling how the lighting contractor in November, 1828, requested to be excused from lighting Cardiff, "in order that he may supply Mr Green with gas for the purpose of inflating his balloon." adds that the minute doss not state who Mr Green was, or why the balloon was being inflated." The Mr Green here referred to was, doubtless, the famous aeronaut, Charles Green, who first mtroduced coal-gas in ballooning. He mad A his first ascent in July, 1821, and when he died, at the age of 84, in Match, 1870, it was said that ho had made about 600 ascents. Hi asserted that in May, 1828, he lllacts an ascent from London on a horse, attached to a baHoon, and it is recorded as a fact that in July, 1850, br, wont up from Vauxhall Gardens with a smxll pony. His visit to Cardiff with his balloon, in 1823. would naturally be looked upon as an event of the first magnitude.
