STORY FOR TO-DAY.
STORY FOR TO-DAY. The Truer Love. i The Truer Love. By "ARIEL." Philip Pugh was a real good three-quarter. Not the slightest doubt about that, because they had long scented him out in the "North" —that Klondyke of aberrant Welah players. Trerhydian had long feared it would lose him. At last the prognostications of the prophets were verified. It was announced that the appeal to Philip's cupidity had been suc- cessful. After a prolonged auction he was going, going, gone Philip was a good workman, but it had been noted that he had not been attending to business lately as he ought. The person who had worried most about that was his sweet- heart—pretty Mary Eosser—who, unquestion- ably, had given indications that his courting of her had not bee a in vain. She saw more in the fickle Philip than anyone else could see. and lored him very dearly. As soon as the news got about that his bargain had been clinched with the Rotherham Club Philip was subject to plenty of chaff from his com- panions. How much is it, Phil? asked Noah Bees, the wit of his circle. "£500 a week, a free- hold house, and a pension of a thousand a year when your crocked?" Philip soon got" shut" of such inquirers as these, and passed on to deal with those more closely concerned. He had made up his mind on this question without informing either his parents or Mary Bosser of the fact. His parents he knew he could deal with all right, but Mary Boseer he felt he should have considerable difficulty in dealing with. Philip loved this warm-hearted, attractive girl more than he loved anyone else in the world —but how much that amounted to had yet to be measured. The money down proved, of course, the great attraction to the worthy old couple, who had never received such a sum as £200 into the family coffers before, and straightway dreamt of El Dorados and the mines of Peru and Golconda. But to Mary money meant nothing and love everything. Even Philip did not really know what this abrupt departure meant to her. She was too maidenly and reserved to speak her thoughts, but it was easy to see that she disapproved of this scheme from the bottom of her heart. Philip left her with the feeling that she had placed a sort of real damper upon his project. It did not look so alluring after he had felt the depth of her unspoken condemnation. He felt little and mean; that he was flying from hard work in the Welsh village and from the girl he had been proud to win, at the same time. But if he hOO been dcpr on leaving her company he soon shook the feeling off when he once got to Rotherham- If Mary's sadness had been prophetic of ill that evil presage certainly could not have referred to his "career" at Rotherham. He proved a great success on the football field; he was given an excellent position, and with his more than doubled wages he was able, having naturally an attractive manner, to get into a much better circle of society than that. to which he had been accustomed at Tre- rhydian. The Welshman certainly was making unexpected strides! At first he wrote regularly to his parents and to Mary; then hè dropped his parents; then he became less attentive and frequent in his correspondence with Mary. She was not long in feeling the coolness and oblivion which was a.1fect.ing her erstwhile love. and the chill which was settling on her own heart. Her pale face and nervous oarriage soon struck her parents; but she would not own to the truth. He was neglecting her, bnt that was only what she had all along expected. Her prognostications of misfortune were beginning to be verified. At last she wrote him a letter hinting what her poor heart dared not more openly express. She had to wait long, long, for a reply. The truth was that prosperity had been fatal to Philip's constancy. Amongst his acquaintances and admirers at Eotherham was a prosperous draper, Who kept a. shop in one of the principal streets, and had a daughter! The daughter was engaging and agreeable, and Philip's visits to their house ended in a mutual understanding being, in process of time, arrived at between them. Mabel Arnold was fond of football, and attended all the union matches in her town, and she was one of tuoso girls who gloried in the admiration which Pugh. as a good footballer, speedily secured up there. There was a good deal of personal vanity in her monopolisation of the new comer. Now Mary Rosaer was not the girl to lightly lose her lover; for her love for him was of the truest and aCost faithful kind—not founded on mere self, but enoomjuassing chiefly the welfare of the object she loved.! Week after week passed, and nothing was heard of Pugh at Trerhydian. Then Mary Roeser noticed that a. cheap excursion was being advertised to Roth-erha.m. Undeterred by the length of the journey, she, with a sudden determination-Which, as it after- wards seemed, was dictated by a. sort of second sight—took ticket and went up North also. It was a big league match which was being played at Eotherham on the day she arrived, and, wishful to see her sweetheart again from a distance without his knowing it, she took her seat in the grand-stand. Her heart beat almost audihly as she once more saw his familiar figure on the field of play. And she happened to see also the new object of hills attentions, for it was public property in Botherhiam that Pugh, the Welshman, was engaged to Mabel Arnold. Mabel, with a big flopping hat, encircled with a huge ostrich fearoher, and with ostentatious furs about her shoulders, was sitting in the stand. Mary, whilst she envied her her air of prosperity, certainly did not envy her her Sightly manner, nor her shifty black eyes. It proved a terrible match for the Welsh girl to see. In the second half she saw Philip Pugh swept down upon by a rush of forwards. He fell hopelessly and awkwardly sideways, and put his hip joint out. He was borne off the field in excruciating agonies to the local hospital. Then Mary acaser knew not wbat to do. Should she make herself known and go to see him—perhaps to be turned away and made a laughing stock of? She determined at any cost to stay at Eotherham and see what the event would be. Days passed and she ooasulted the papers steadily. At last she saw a. paragraph. The doctors were hopeful of bringing Pugh round, but he would oer- tainly be lame for life. Her heart overflowed with pity and tenderness for the helpless man she loved, but still she dared not go and see him. At last she decided to at least visit the institution and inquire. She would never be, known, and would escape the shame of a direct insul.t. Fortunately, she found the porter at the hospital a very decent sort of fellow, who called a nurse standing by. and introduced her to the unknown visitor. They got into conversation on the caee. To Mary's intense surprise and indigna-1 tion she found that practically no one in Eotherham had interested themselves in the injured footballer they had enticed from Wales. Even the mirae was surprised and indignant. They say he is engaged to Miss Arnold, the draper's daughter," said she. All I can say is she has never been near here, either to inquire for or see him. He feels that terribly." Poor fellow 1 There could be no doubt that he would. Lying there with a distorted limb, far from friends and kinsmen; with no one but the nurses to say a word of cheer to him! She burned with, a. fierce indignation. This Miss Arnold was a. oat" indeed. Mary Bosser oould no longer restrain her- eelf. she mruat see bim once more before she •urft. frw tMme, Upcru bar aQPlio&tio&«fci*^ t allowed to go up to the ward. There, in a remote corner, lay the poor fellow, with the coverlet thrown back from his heated shoulders. She advanced towards him, wondering whether he would recognise her. He did not do so till she was a few feet from him, and her spirits fell to zero! But it was because he had never expected her, and could hardly believe his eyes. With a. glad cry of reco?ni- t?on, he at last spread out his arms to her. 1 These two were at unity once more. He had returned to the old love, never to part from it now. Mabel Arnold's na.mé was suggested, but he would have none of it. Hs asked that it should cover be mentioned again! He had made a horrid mistake, and it made him tremble to think of it. Mary Rosser went back to Trerhydian before her lover, but she did so with a glad feeling at her heart, for she had heard that the doctors had given a good account of the patient, and he would follow her very soon. He did so. He received, a good round sum in insurance money, and now, two years afterwards, when he is married to Mary, and living very comfortably at Trerhydian (having received a capital job), he is very little lame, indeed! It is thought be may even get rid of the little lameness which remains with care. Well, he will get that from MaTy!

A Typist's Romance. I IRISH MAID AND HER GERMAN LOVER I An amusing breach of promise case was heard before the Recorder of Dublin yester- day, in which the plaintiff was an Irish col- leo-, named ElLie O'Sbzughmes" and the defendant a German pork butcher named Henry Webber. The lady, a fresh-looking country girl, said she cam-e to Dublin in 1902, met the defendant, and was introduced to him when she was going home to her lodgings from a typewrit- ing school. Recorder: What was be? Pla.irefriff: He was a ecinscraper. Always Kissed Her I She went on to say thait he took her for a w-alk aoon afterwards. Then they met fre- quently, and walked out together. Defendant always kissed her on panting. He pro-posed to her on one occasion, a.nd she accepted ham. Miss Werner invited her to stay with her, and she went. Defendant was in the same employment as MisB Werner. He was able to speak English then, and he could manage big words with the aad of a dictionary. Counsel: Did you take the diotoanary out when you went far a walk? PLaimtaff: Oh, no. Was it the dictionary of love? afiked counsel. M-ISR O'shaughnemy simply gave a. far-off reminiscent sort of smile in reply. Back for her Sake I She also stated that the defenidamt, on returning from England, protested that he had come back for her sake. He caime in one evening and said he had brought a ring. He asked., Would she care for anything else? and she said she would like a wa.tdh and oOOin. He then asked her to be true and Caithful to him. When he ceased caJling to see her she returned his presents. The defendant said tha.t he had been in Dublin only two years. When he met Miss O'Sh&ughnessy he was a stranger in the city, and liked company. He felt thaA at that time he was too young to maxu-he was only about 22. Child in these Matters I Recorder: Poor little child! Further examined, he denied that he gave the girl a ring. He did, however, give her a watch. Recorder: Were you making np to her? Defendant (hesitating): No. I only kissed her. Recorder: What do you say to your let- ters? You say in one of them, I can't sleep for thinking of you." Defendant said he wrote only two or three letters altogether. The Recorder said that he was sorry to see a young man like the defendant making a fool of this girl. It was a cruel thing on his part. Counsel explained that the cause of the trouble was that another young lady had stolen the defendant's affections away from his first love, and was at present wearing some of the returned jewellery. The Recorder gave a decree for twelve guineas.

Tthe society which aims at legislation to I make premature burial impossible would seem to find ample justification for its exis- tence in the events of the past few weeks During the present year two cases have been pablisihed of persons apparently dead coming to life again, and to these has to be added a. similar narra/tive from Downham, a little market town a few miles from King's Lynn. A few days ago William Hay lett, aged 75 years, was believed to have died. For some weeks jxaat he had been hovering on the verge, and at last he sank into insensibility and apparently into death. Those who watched by his bedside satisfied tLemeelve-I that life had departed, and tihc body was laIid ouit. for burial. The son was informed of his father's de-cease," and on proceeding to the house of mourning he looked on what he took to be bhe lifeless features of his parent. With the utmost amazement he noticed bhe eyes of his fiatlher slowly open, wfaiie at the same moment there was & movement of the hands. Any lingering doubt as to the niin being actually alive was set at rest a few momelite later, Vilhen he quietly asked the astonished onlookers if they fchougiht (he was dead. The effect of this startling inquiry upon those who were around the deatdi bed was extraordinary, and it waa some time before they recovered from the Shook of their expe- rience. Although Mr. Haylett is in a state of extreme prostration, the medical man who is in attendance entertains hopes of his ulti- mate recovery.

I PLATONIC FUNDS. REMARKABLE DIVORCE COURT STORY. Compromising Letters from a Lady. The beginnings of a remarkable divorce case were told to Sir J. Gorell Barnes, the new president, in Divorce Court 1. yesterday. No jury was empanelled. What happened was just the tale—a strangely-moving tale—of one woman. Her name was Rose Fa.nny Frowd, and her hus- band, Mr. Herbert Haddon Frowd, of East- bourne, is seeking a divorce from her, alleg- ing misconduct with a. boy, named Ernest William Eldridge. Mrs. Frowd is sailing for abroad in a week, and it was because of this that Ehe wenl into the witness-box to give her evidence of denial I in advance. She made a Striking figure, and the story she told might have come from behind the footlights for tihe intensity of it. I An Eloquent Defence. I She spoke for the most part in eloquent defence of the boy." He had confessed hie wrongs, and his confession was in writing. But X-re. Frowd waved that aside. That con- fession She 'cried, with the tears welling up in her dark eyes, was a bogus one—dragged from the frightened boy by shameless people who were doing their mightiest to ruin her life. She was married, she said, in 1896. Six years later she separated from her husband and went to live at Brighton. Here she met "tli<) bc)-y"a tall, well-looking youth under 21. They both had musical taates. He went home with her one Sunday night after an orgaji recital at St. James's Church.. On their way home the talk turned to Tannbaueer," and they discussed the first act of that tragic Ic,ve story. In the wake of the Venusburg musio fallowed two detectives. Played to Him. 11 The boy saw the lady home. Together they sat down to the piano, and &he played to him some of the music of the opews. It was the ilrsit mat," she said. Did you not invite him up to your bed- room?" asked MT. Barnard, the cross-exam- ining counsel. It is a dreadful Me! answered the lady. It was after this tihat she heard Mr. Eldridge had confessed. I wenrt, to see him," she said, and told him what a. coward he was, and he replied, If you only knew how sorry I am you would forgive me. I have been forced and frightened into at.' I asked him if he would tell just the truth, for my father's sake, and he said he dare not, add- ing that three other men besides himself bad signed confessions—Mr. T, Mr. S., end Mr. P." Mrs. Frowd arfLmitbed that she had bom. in the Divorce Court before—but the jury acquitted her. Did you have any affection for Eldridge? asked counsel. In a friendly way, yes. I think very highly of him." Kissed After a Dance. I Hava you ever kissed him? "Yes, once—or, at least, he kissed me, after a dainoe. You wrote letters to him? OnJy two." Mr. Barnard read extraoot- Decur E,-Don't come near me! Frowd is on the warpath. Why did you say that if there was nothing wrong in your intimacy with him ? Why should I lot them bring every inno- cent boy into trouble with me, and turn everything I do into wrong? she replied. Thank God, dear boy, you are safe," quoted counsel. Isn't that something to tbaak God for? retorted Mrs. Frwwd. And you told him to say that he never met you by appointment! That was untrue? It wae untrue. I was frightened for him -frightened aA everything-frightened at my own shadow nearly. When you know people I are dogging you, and trying to make wrong I out of everything you do, it makes a woman frightened. I was even frightened that we might be seen at the Opera tog--ther-Tann- htauser and Fa.ust! Swear blind they are all lies. Don't ever aodmit having kissed me. "What do you mean by tblat?" I Frightened I was very frightened when he kissed me that day. I feared it would tell very mucSh against him." The letter went on: I shall keep out of your way and live as quietly as possible. Go to church as usual. Sometimes I shall oome, and may speak to you for a minute outside. We must not let ttihem think we are airaid of each other, or t.ha.t we are not still friends. You can write to me with safety. I will be true. Keep dark. Say as little as possible. The lady also refor-d to the great love She had for her little sou, Whom She was ra.rely allowed to see. "Did you also have great love for the co- respondent?" asked Mr. Barnard. Only friendly low. He has been more tqi,a.n kind to me. Many times I have been absolutely lonely, with no one to cheer me, and no one to speak to. Then he was kind to me. And what wrong is there in that?" The second letter to "the boy" ran as fol- lows Dear Old Ernie,-I am going blind-blind through so much worry and so much cry- ing. You will be sorry, I know deax. The world will be dark then. won't it, dear? It is dark enough when I am a.way from you I ¡a,nd the boy; and, oh, what will it be if some day I shall never be able to see your dear face I I Am Going Blind" I It is true—it is true," sobbed the woman in the witness-box. I am going blind-" Mr. Barnard read on: If, dear, I should go to rest in the way you know-I cannot answer for myself; I really cannot. I will send you a ring of mine, and have it made into a tie-pin.

REMINISCENCES*. 1 H.B." ON GIANTS,, FUNERALS, & CHAMBERS OF HORRORS. Special to "Evening Express." i The kind of weather served out to Scotland when last the Welsh team appeared there was nothing less than murderous. Storms of wind and rain, the former man-tilting and bone-chilling, the latter, the rain, just struggling to become hail. Standing erect was an impossibility, standing at the tilt an accomplishment. I see now the sfcorm- ewept brushmen sweeping the sheets of water from one epot, a big sized one, to another on the ground. I see, also, the bag- pipe boys with blue noses and raw-beefed lags doing their best to use some of the cold wind to bless their pipes with. I see thirty men in their jerseys galloping for glory—running was almost a feat; thirty brave men playing against all sense in the doing of it; thirty faithful ones—"Theirs not to reason why" sort of heroes. And around the ropes thousands of perished souls, withered and stoney struck. A sorrowful picture, my masters; o. storm fiend's paradise. There are three—shall I call th-eon "things ?" -we never want to see when we go to Scot- land-first, giants; second, chambers of horrors; third, funerals. If we see all three, then we're bang on to omens—bad ones. Of all three sign-posts of evil prophecy, the giant is the worst. We h-ad reached Oarstairs on tie up journey, end had ten minutes' inter- val. We were tired, and it was dark. He stood 9ft. high, and had a cigar in his mouth —a big and proportionate one. One of our men leaned against a. leg of his by mistake. Thought it was a signal post. Got disturbed and fetched Schofield. He got frightened, and fetched Teddy Lewis. "Now. what's your little game, Schofield," said Teddy, as he was plumped in front of the human Eiffel Tower. Not seeing the joke he was placed to grasp one of the giant's logs. Then he followed the trail to its face. Without a moment's pause he then dropped on his knees, lit a match, and examined its feet. Being satisfied it was a man, he sprang up and exclaimed, "S'help I me, if I didn't think the blooming jigger was standing on a box." Then, with a gasp he seised Schofield's arm, saying, "Come away, Schofield; this is no plaoe for us. If they're all like that, then Heaven help Wales." And chambers of horrors! The saints pre- seorve us from these, bafore the matcl1, espe- cially. Lead us not into dissecting rooms" should be the Welsh players' cry. Over- zoalous Welsh students thought it especially kind on their pamt to show some of our for- wards over a hospital just before a byegone international match in Edinburgh. Wihatt tthey saw had a poor effect upon their stomaoha. They had nothing left of them for tiho match figibt. And funerals! "There goes one," said Llewellyn Lloyd, as from the box seat of the break converting the team to the ground he spotted the weariness on his way. "There goes one; our usual lucvk." Them he looked at Walter Bees, to find him putting on tlhat look of hopeless resignation that becomes him so when the fault is not his. Somehow or other the Scotland versus Wales match-day aft Inverleith is a favourite day for funerads. The bagpipes ait one time might have been included as a. fourth sometihing we would like omitted. But that was long ago. Now we would not miss them for worlds. The Welsh aversion to the bagpipes arose from the faot thait we were not used to more thm.1 one of it at the same time. When one man playing the pipes walks into our villages we reckon the place is full. We had an early idea, too, tlliWt there was more wind blown into tihe Pesky thing than musio oaane out. Amd, moreover, blowing seemed all the playing it required. At least, thait was the impression that tihe Scotch Highlanders doing the South Wales circuit gave one. But the case differed immediately when we heard the full band-i supipose they call it a OOind-perform at Inverleith. After the first mturcth up the field when the ten thousand demons within their leathern girdle wheezed out their pains and penalties, I could bring myself to believe what a red hot Soot on my leult told me, viz., that the music was grond, mon." Oh! yes, we're habituated to the bagpipes. They must try something eJB&4J1.wt pops out of the omen& disqualified. Every year we rake up the George Bowen and Oharley Reid reminiscence. It is worth the remembering. Charley Reid was the Scotch forward giant, the greatest then and since. George Bowen had the task assigned him of pulling Reid down in the Wales versus Scotland international at Newport when we won by a try. George performed his duty. Just a. reminiscence. In the same mait-ch Pryce Jenkins serpen- tined a try. One not likely to be forgotten as long as Welsh international football holds. George Bowen's tackling, Pryce Jenikins's try, and the mud were the three chief charac- teristics of the victory. It seems like taking coraJs to Newcastle to take Gavin Henry to Scotland and ask people to imagine he is Welsh from his talk. The least we can expect is that we won't be believed. Whatever happens—victory or defeat-a. part of Gavin's nature will be satisfied. While condoling with the van- quished, he will yet smile with the victor.

SPORT OF THE DAY. I
SPORT OF THE DAY. I It was a remarkable coincidence that three horses numbered 13 on the card won their engagements at Kempton yesterday. Detail, the Grand NaAional favourite, is to fulfil his engagement at Leicester next week, with Arthur NightingaU in the saddle. E. Driacoll haa accopfted an engagement to ride for Eugene Leigh's citable in France, and will leave Engla.nd in ten days or a fortnight. In consequence of ill-health, Mr. A. L. Dnn- can has disposed of tihe whole of his bloodstock-horses in training, bfood mares, foals, &c.imd will not raoe any more for the present. In the presence of Major Gordon, on Tboas. day, Jarvis's Cheriton Belle defeated General Ctronje in a trial gallop of two mdiles over hurdles by a neck, Clermont being two lengths away, third. Mr. Maxwell Arnotrt, the owner of Duofcey, is practically the trainer of Captain Dew- hurst's horses aA Green Mount, ClonsilLa, while the captain is at Bedford Lodge, New- market, during ea-ch winter. Mr. D. Faber has, through his trainer, Baker, opened negotiations for the purchase of the smart Irish three-year-odd Shanganag-h Parka, colt by St. Grls-Kentness,. that won three of the five races he ran last year. W. Dwyer, the cross-country jockey attached to Sir C. Nugent/s stable at Cranborne, liae met with a severe accident which will keep him out of the saddle for some time. He received a nasty fall whilst riding at exercise on Wednesday, and examination revealed the fact that he had 'broken several ribs.
