STORY FOR TO-DAY. Waiting. The perfume of the syringaa, spiced by the scent from the pines that grew on the moun- tain side, tilled the valley with fragrance. The crimson trail of the sun had diaappeajed and a star-pierced darkness spread around. Noises of night were everywhere. The chirp, chirp of the crickets beat in the air in rhythmic cadence and was in harmony with the low tones of a, youth and maid who walked slowly a,Iong a. little path near a, cottage surrounded by pilver maples. But the beauties of the night were net for these two, for they were parting. It breaks my heart to have you go," she said ea.dly. But will you promise me that when you are far away you won't wholly forget your little girl, who loves you so much? I sometimes fear that when you see other women prettier and better than I you won't care any more for one who will be fcr ever thinking of you." No, little one." he said tenderly, I shall not forget you. My one hope and thought will be to return to you." The moon was climbing above the maples when they parted. FTom her window she looked in the direction he bad va-niahod. The moon sailed higher and higher in the sky, and relieved the blue black of the night. The shrill hooting of an owl on the mountain seemed like a. cry for succour. The chirp of the crickets made the air throb, a.nd the whip-poor-will'g wail rang sadly out. The face was still att the window, and tears bedewed the cheeks under the closed eye- lids. There was commotion around the mine. Something 'had happened far down in the black pit, no one knew exactly what. The car could not be raised. Whether there was a cave in below where the miners were, cr a. mere disarrangement in the shaft, none could telL One thing all knew-nfteen miners were below. They had gone down at early morning while the sun's kiss made the east blush and the air was fragrant with the odours of early day. The stalwart, brownyed fore- man. while waiting for the men to come, had stood near the mouth of the shaft talking to a. pink-cheeked lad, who had also left his home to seek w&alth in the West. They watched the squirrels scamper among the crooked branches of the white oaks and listened to the rippling carol of the birds. "It makea me think of home and the farm," the boy said. when I used to get up at dawn. If I shut my eyes now ihis fragrant morning air aJmoet wafts me back." The foreman did not a.nswer. He was thinking, too, perhaps of tender blue eyes and golden hair hundreds of miles way, in a. cottage amid silver maples. Then the miners came, and they all climbed into the car, which carried them down, down a-way from the light and the scented air. When noon came and the hot sun had driven the squirrels into the shade of the broad leaves of the white oaks, and the birds hopped only in the thickest of tlie woods, there had come no 'sign from the men who had gone down into the mine. At one o'clock the campa held a consultation, a.nd decided that they would raise the ca.r. No answer came to the pull on the signal-rope. Then they tried to draw up the car. The heavy ny-wheel of the hoisting engine raittled around a turn or two and then slowed. The ropeg strained and groaned. The governor of the engine came to the rescue, and put more eteam behind the pistons. There was a creak and a. jar, and the Gy-wbeel went buzzing aground like lightning. The ropes had parted, with the car at the bottom of the shaft. "Wha/t's to be done! now?" asked Jim Davia, the oldest miner in the camp. We've got to do something, and tor do it in a hurry, too." None of the miners a.nswered. They stood around the mouth of the shwt with &wed faces. The breaking of the ropes waa not &o serious. It was the something that had caused the car to stick. It meant that there had been 30 mve-in. How serious it was impos- sible to judge. Sombody's got to be let down," he con- tinued, mopping his nushed face with a ha-nd'erohief that had once been red, but which waa now like the ruat-coloured dust at his feet. Maybe it ain't going ter do no good, but it'll have to be tried." I'm. yep Bia<n," said a tanned Hercules, who "had been leaning en a shovel which be threw down, and I'd better go afore it's too late." A rope was fastened to the drum of the hoisting engine. A sling was made, and the miner was slowly lowered. Down be went until th.e openmg of the sha.ft seemed but a, tiny square of light. Then his feet struck something spongy. He signalled to stop lowering, ajtd felt around. He was standing on soft earth. Not a. trax'e of the car could be frnd. He knew by the distance be had been lowered that the bottom of the shaft was not nearly reached. Strong, and fierce, and rough as he was, he came near fainting. The nfteen miners were hopelessly locked in the mine. When he was hoisted out of the eh a/ft he seemed dazed. The miners crowded close around him, all questioning at once. The sun blazed down on them, but they paid no attention to the great heat of the red dust which tilled the air like the mist. He rubbed his great rough hand,3 across his eyes. B<;ys," he said It's all np with 'em. There's been a cave somewhere, and the car is down at the bottom of the shaft with tons and tons atop of it." The miners moved slowly towards the bill- side, and held a solemn council. All of them had been at scenes of accident and death. Some had oc>oen quick to kill, and all were hardened by their wild and reckless lives. Yet aa they stood there above their imprisoned comrades, there was not a man of them who was not heavy-hearted and sad- dened. "It seems to me," said Jim Da/vis, "thaA the only thing ter do it, ter dig." The miners divided up into squads, a.nd the work of clearing the sha.ft was begun. The jerky rattle of the hoisting engine as it raised or lo?;er<'d the little car that brought up the earth, and the occasional word of conversation among the miners were all that broke the quiet of the cajup, and gloom rested on the miners. When the crimson of day œ.me and purple mists blej-ided sky and earth, when the cooling breeze of evening waved the taBads of the pines, and plumes of wi'thered br.a.nches swung mournrully to a.nd rro, a groat cone of red ea,ruh had arisen by the side of the shaft. The engine still rattled, the puUeys creaked, and the miners worked with a. deeper energy th.an they bad ever done in their strife for wealth. The crim- son streak disappeared in the west, the stars oa.me out and coldly, and the eqmirpels and the birds s'lept. Down in the mine, closed in by shattered timbers and fallen soil. were the nfteen miners. They knew t'ha.t they could not be rescued, and they crouched there waaLuig deaJth. With craa.k and crunch the timbers gave way a little at a, time. The weight of the sHding earth sprained them more a.nd more. There is no nope for us," the foreman said, a.9 he looked a.t the bellying timbers. whiioh, in the flickering light of the miners' lamps. Beamed like the bones of some giant beasrt. "An hour a,t most is all the respite we can hope for." The men crouched closer together as if by th.) contact they could make the impending fa.to leas awful. The thump of the dropping earth or the groan from a straining timber made them start a.nd shudder. The fopema.n and the pink-cheeked boy who had thought of home that morning were a little apart from the The lad's cheeks were not pink now, but he did not Sinch. It's awfully rough," he said, "to be crowded down here waiting for dearth. Just to think of never seeing the snn &nd the trees and the grass any more; that- I'll never again see mother or the children, who will wait in vain for me to come, and never knew how nruch I -wanted to be with them." A choking sob stopped his utterance. Thoughts of home and mother had touched him more than that overhanging death. "there is someone who will wait for me too," said the foreman, a.nd then there came a noise and a timber to the right gave way. A rush of earth made the men crowd still closer together. They were becoming mo-reand more hc-mraea in. Can't someone say a. pra-yer?" T&na of the miners asked. The others looked at him. An h4l1r before he had been young and stalwart. Now he seemed old. His hair had turned white. Yes," said the forema.n. They all knelt, and while the timbers creaked and groaned and the red earth pattered down on their heads, they prayed. The miners above worked hard at the shaft, relieving each other at intervals. The drum of the hoisting engines revolved and stopped with painful regularity, and the dirt-car went up and down like a ehntt-le. The fire never left the boiler, and the exhaust-pipe puned and puffed. We know they're gone," old Jim Davis said; "but we'll have 'em anyway." Five days after that morning when the fifteen miner-s left the squirrels and birds and budding d'ay to go down into the mine, their companions parried them out of it. It was at dawn. too, when the sky was flushed from sleep, a.nd there were the earne aweet odours of early day. But they could not see the squirrels nor the bluahing sky nor breathe the fragra.nc'e. Their roag'h com- panions tenderly buried them oTi the hillside under the pines. And in the valley where the silver ina-plea grow a blue-eyed I-viftle girl w,.titas for one who never comes. When advancing night wa.Tma the sky and spicy odours roll down the mountain side and mingled with the scent of the eyringas, she walks benea-th the silver maples and listens for a step she never hea.ra. The whip-poor-will still ca.lla, the crickets chirp, but the voice she loves is a-beent.

I The Mititary Tattoo. AN IMPRESSIVE SPECTACLE The greatest interest is everywhere taken in the military tattoo which will take placs at the Cardiff Arms Pa.rk next Saturday even- ing. On thit day thousands of people will be in Cardiff to attend the Patti concert in aid of the infirmary and the Ca.rdiif v. Swansea football match. Both these events take place in the afternoon. The tattoo will be in the evening, by torchlight and electric light. All people who intend to visit either Ma.dame Pa.tti's concert or the football match should make up their minds to return by the later trains in order that they might be able to witness a very impressive and in some respects historic scene. The programme of the tattoo has been already published in our columns. It contains innumerable fea.tures of interest, such <aB an attack on a camp and a musical ride by cycliste. The Regulars and VolunteerB intend to turn out in force, so that the march-past at the start will be imposing, whilst the closing scene, when the troopa, massed in the hollow-square forma- tion, will sing an evening hymn, which will be very Great historic interest a.ttaches to the tattoo on account of the veterans' march- paat under Lieutenant F. H. GaskeII. A fur- ther item of interest has been added t-o the tattoo by the offer and acceptance of the services of 50 Crimean and Indian Mutiny veterans. These nne old soldiers will .take part in the proceedings, and will march pa.?t as a sepa-rate company under the command of Lieutenant F. H. GaskeIL Meanwhile Air. Gaskell's oompa.ny of South African veterans is l&rgety increasing in numbers, a.nd as the number of those taking part must neces- easily be limited, it is requested th'at a,Il those who served in the South African war in any capacity, and who deaire to pa.rticip9.te in this histori march-past, will send in their P--ames, addresees, ranks, and units to Mr. Gaskell, 100, St. Mary-street. OardiS, as early as possible this week. All those whose names and addresses are sent to Mr. Ge.skell w111 receive their orders in due course, and -.be orders will also be published in the "Wes- tern Mail" and "Evening Express" on the 19th, 20th, a.nd 21st of October. In the mean- time, for general information, it is notified tha,t the parade will be a, dismounted one for all units, and those men in possession of uniform are requested to turn out in it, but, inasmuch as many of the vetera-ns have no uniform in their poSf:e<s.<Üon, Mr. Gaskell par- ticularly wishes it known that plain clothes men are as welcome to parade as those in possession of uniform. Veterans of all ranks and corps have offered their services, and the occasion will not only unique in the M nals of the district, but a great re-union of comrades.

I THE CLUB "SMOKER." I Successful and Enthusiasts Gathering There waa a orowded audience at the smoking concert held at the Conservative Club, Western Mail-buildings. Cardiff, on Saturday night in aid of the War Memorial Fund. The chair was occupied by Councillor Lewia Morgan, who was supported by Mr. Henry Fra-zer (chairmaji of directors), Messrs. R. P. Barneo. C. H. Thomas, W. S. Williams. G. H. Bedford. E. H. Cra.fter, T. W. Jones, and W. D. Phillips (directors). Councillor HItyd Thomaa, Councillor J. Stanneld, and other prominent men. The programme was one of the best which could be arranged, and renected credit upon the entertainment com- mittee, which consisted of Mr. G. H. Bedford, Mr. Harry Williams, and Mr. C. 0. Williams. The band of the 2nd V.B. Welsh Regiment opened the concert with a rendering of "Boys pf the Old Brigade." which they followed up taster with a. aolec.tion from "The Gety Girl," introduomg' "Tommy Atkims," in the chorus of whicfh t)he whole compa-ny heartily joined. The band's contribution to the entertainment was thoroughly appreciated, and its perfor- mance reneoted great credit. upon the con- ductor (Mr. JoJhnson) a.nd the splendid musicians under his control. There Wel"e two glee parties, and it is only because the Car- diii Singers, conducted by ..Mr. H. Haines. came nrst on the programme that we refer to them before the St. Peter's Glee a,nd Madrigal Society, bo.th bojng equally deserving of notice. The Cardiff Glee Singers opened with the popular con- certed piece, Comrajdes in Arma." The voices were perfectly balanced, and the rich tone of the baeses was particularly noticea.Ne. On their s-Mond appeara.nce they sang "The Boys of the Old Brigade," and for both enort-s they were very loudly applauded. The St. Peter's combination first of aM sang "Life's a Bumper," followed by "AnnM 1-a.urie" and "Killarney," the two last being solos, with the society acting as accompanists. The effect was superb, and it was only necessary to c10,e one's eyes to imagine that Mr. Charnley and Mr. Nolan the eoloiats, were accompanied by an organ so well was that powerful instrument simu- lated by the members of the society. The individual artistes were no leas eucoeasful Miss Gertrude Wedlake came early in the programme with a very fine rendering of "There's a Land." a eong of great patriotic oba-rm. Enures bad been ta.oit.Iy tabooed the programme being so long; but tilis was a, rendering which no rule could withstand. a?d Miss Wedlake eajtg again, this time "1-Voman'g Way." Her two eongs were quite a. feature of the concert. Mr. Arthur Dun- fop's rendition of "Mary," amd Mr. Harry Mdller's rich bamtone songs called forth loud applause. Mr. Ernest Edwards eang "The Vetera.n'e Song" with great effect Turning to the lighter aide of the concert, Mr. Harry Bedford, whose make-up was good, sang the comic songs, "If the world were ruled by girls." and "Can't you take my word?" bo'th of which stamped the singer as an excellent comedian. Mr. Albert Pattepson waa equally successful in She's my Da,i9ey" and "I'm One of the Upper Ten," and Corporal Davies was another comic artiste who should not be left out of any social gathering. Miss Alice Small sa<ng, and danced a "cake walk," and Mr. Langdon Stubbs contributed a couple of good banjo solos. Professor Oswald gave an into. resting display of s.leighrkJfha.nd work, and. like many others in the same line, succeeded in making "confusion worse confounded by explaining how it was done. Mr. Pe<rcy WheeJer accompanied with his usual versa- tility. At the close of the concert Mr. G. H. Bed- ford proposed, and Councillor J. Siaji.neld seconded, a. vote of tha-nks to Councillor Lewis Morgan for presiding. Councillor Lewis Morgan in returning tha,nk3 referred to t.he war memorial and to the action taken by the "Western Mail." He coneideTed that the propne'to'rs had ren- dered a national service in starting a fund to perpetuate in atone or bronze the memo- ries of those who had fallen in battle nght- ing for their King and country. When war was raging fiercely and deeds of valour and heroism were plentiful there was no lack of enthusiasm and men would shoatthemselve6 hoarse with "Rule. Britannia," and "God bless you. Tommy Atkins." But when "Cease 6re!" eonnded, the din and noise of battle hushed, and peace declared they soon forgot. Their memories were very ehort-Iived. Let them. therefore, have in their midst a prominent reminder of the eacrinoes made, so that their chUdrcn And their children's children might drink in that spirit of Jove and devotion for home and country which characterised thos-- who bted and died on the battlefields of South Africa, that furrowing friends and rela-tives might know that their dear ones had something more than a small grass-grown mound in a eeclad-ed spot in the Transvaal to help them "to remember." (Cheers.) The Cirman then proposed a vote of thanks <o the artiste's, and Mr. Dunlop a,nd Mr. WiUiams replied.

HALL ROAD DtSASTER LESSONS OF AN ELECTRIC I TRAIN SMASH I Colonel Druitt, in his omcia.1 report on the disastrous accident at Hall Road, on the Lan- cashire and YorkshjTe Railwa-y, when twenty people were killed and 47 inj-ured by a,n electric expToOOs colliding with an empty tra.in, aays tha.t th-e accident was due to inadver- tence in leaving the &i<Hn.s' points in the wrong position, and then to disregajd of rules on Hie part of the signalman, and to dis- regard of rules fand r&ckless driving by the driver of the express. The only lesson to be learnt from the disas- ter, Colonel Druitt says, is the vcry old one of the llecJ.c'ssity a.t a.U times of complying exactly with all ruLss acd reg-ulationa.

I LIVER CH!LL—A DANGEROUS AtLMENT I HOW BILE BEANS EXPEL IT. I STRONG WILTS. TESTIMONY. Liver chill is a common ailment at this time of year. It may be brought on by getting one's feet wet, by going out insuui- ciently chad, by living in a damp 'house, or even by sleeping in a damp bed. From what- ever cause arising, liver chill is most dan- gerous, for many esrioua complaints ariae from it. Bile Beans banish liver chill by giving tone to the liver, and nourishing it by so assisting digestion that the food taken is turned into rich, red blok)d. The experience of Miss Fanny Adiam. of New-street, Wiuterboume, Btoke, Wilts., proves tMs. "Some-years ago," she Mid to a "Wiltshire Chronicle" reporter, "I slept in a damp bed. In the -morning I was wet through, and later in th& day my face began to swell. As I found I had developed a, chill, I stayed in bed for a few days. I gradually got worse, and my breathing became very dif&cult. I lost all my colour; I was weak and listless, and could take no interest in anything. I consulted a doctor, who said I was suffering from a chill on the liver. He prescribed for me, but his medicines did me no good. I then went into whre I was treated as an out- patient for three, months, but got no better. If I even stooped down I felt sick, and my bead seemed fit to s.pl it open. Fofrmon'ths I was like this, and had to take to my bed. The neighbours all said I was going home' and I certainly looked like it. I tried almost every medicine I heard of, but all to no pur- pose. One day a. friend sent me a box of Bile Beans. I commenced to take them. and soon I bega'n to enjoy my food; my breath got better, and, in fact, I felt stronger alto- gether.

LONDON WELSH FOOTBALL I CLUB. A general meeting of the London Welsh Rugby Football Club wa.s held on Saturday evening, under the chairmanship of Dr. Pryce Jenkins.—The financial statement pre- sented by Dr. Walter Ll. Davies (hon. secre- tary) was of a satisfactory character, and was duly adopt&d.—The chief business of the meeting was to consider a dimculty that had arisen in connecMon with a ground. Some time ago an arrangement was made for con- tinuing to play the chief home matches on the Queen's Club ground, but owing to the return of the Corinthians the secr&tary had been obliged to send an intimation that only some of the Welsh matches could be played there this season. This was considered by the meeting, and a special committee was appointed to make the best arrangements possible.

EYE ON THE BLACKS* H.B." WANTS ROUGH RELISH Special to "Evening Express" What the 12.000 spectators in the Cardiff v. Newport match came out for to see they did see. By common agreement a Sne, robust. and fairly scientific game of Rugby football was expected, and by common conoont the same was concluded to have been served up. Perhaps, more science and less buck would have b-een more couform&ble with the Welsh system. Maybe, there were too many out- crops of individualism to touch the fine fas- tidiousness of our truly reuned Cymric taste. I say "perhaps" and "maybe," and let it go a,t that. A year ago expressed sentiments of that kind would have set up a unison chorus, but to-day we want rough relish for a rougher fare. For with the dark shadow of the bounding blacks upon the horizon, we want great men more than ever, and great m-en with great hearts. Knowing that, I was more pleased than usual with the clean strength of Saturday's game. The score of three goals—one of which was dropped—and one try to one try, or Cardiff seventeen points to Newport's three, is very misleading, for there was never anything like that difference in it. That Cardiff was the snperior team there is no room to doubt. Even in the first half, when the wind was a helping factor of apprecia.ble power in New- port's favour. Cardiff was almost all through "top dog," and, though no score was regis- tered, there was suSici&nt in the run of the game to allow of forecast. I had decided on a two try win with goal possibilitiea for the blue and blacks. Six points, possibly ten, and you have the first half's index of the expectance of the second half's play. But e-eventeen points to three v.tas never expected, and there was never this difference in it. Such a. statement is not made for the pur- posa of detracting from Cardiff's &ne victory. The blue and blanks have reason to be proud <? their afternoon's display. Justifiably proud, with a due sense of proportion, stopping 6h?rt: always stopping short, of that unbecoming a.dornment known aa the "swelled hea-d." Seventeen points to three i.31 a little toppling, to be sure, but there is much to be done, which a swelling will 8poil. Therc'e an eye to be kept on the blacks, and. it. is just as well to slap a poultice on any signs of bujmp- tiousnees. The earlier paj-t of the first half was highly flattering to Newport supporters. The for- wards, led by Hodges and Pritcha.rd, and worthily backed up by George Boots, who has developed his taste for the sorum, kept plugging into the work with a nne relish. Brown, Neall, Hard- ing. and Co. were hard put to it to provide a, sLa.y to their tear-ahead tactic. But when "things these men were stayed, so to speak, by members of their own household. Bennett. the back, fa,iled to return the few relief kicks undertaken by the pressed Cardifnajis. This meant that Newport forwards had the lost ground to ma-ke up a,ga.in. But plug, plug, plug, they were at it again. R. B. Griffiths helped to overcome B&nnett's weakness. A rosier outlook arose for the homesters, when one m'aji on the other side uprose and stayed the intrepid ones. Tha.t man was Winfietd. who, aga.inab the wind and with the a.id of the same, did more to kill the Newport for- wards than any man on his side. It didn't master the sha-pe in which the work came a.Ifyng to him. High kicks and low kicks, swift ewallowers and grubby groundlings, with forwards or without forwards, Win&eld received them all, catching at full stretch and a.t close hug, .and sending the ball back into touch with an exactness, a, cruel exactness, that must ha.ve been mentally worrying, as well fas leg {und body wearying, to the full bucked Newport upa. There you ha.ve the main features of the early pericd. The rest of the nrg.t ha.lf pirouettes round Percy Bush. The irresprcs- sible one, chewdng gum like a New Zea.la.nder, opened up his little interference in the ga,me by a single-ha.nded run down the touch line. He tricked more than a few, finishing up by eide-sUpping Bennett, a,nd then bad the field to himself. He mu&t have been congra/tu- la.ting himself on his leg diplomacy and think- ing of points when Wjllie Thomas came up from the rear and just held the wily one. After this the Cardiff Tips leased the ball. They kept Da,vid busy, a,nd Da,vid peppered Percy. We fell to watching what the Cardiff ca.pta.in waa going to do himself; we forgot everything elee, even as he forgot his centres. One other feature of this nr&t half wae a- bold dash made for the line by forward Brown. Picking up ten yards out he hurly- tmrleyed into and over heapa of interpoaers or wou!d-be's, only to and the line I Too Far to Reach by three feet or so. 'Twas whole-hearted determinedneae, and was worthy of points, but the interval was barren of such for both sides. As in the first half, Newport opened strongly when the restart was made. The forwards again carried the game close to the Cardiff line. But, strangely again. Benuett broke them. A kick-it-anywhere-but-out-of- dajjger kick gave him a bad fumbling bout. With ample time to return the ball, he failed badly. Down came the CacdiS' forwards. The siege was raised, not .to be &eriously taken up 'again until the closing stages of the game, when Newport registered their only try. Taking the individual players and taking the backs first, the difference can be summed up in the trite phrase of no comparison." Winneld has never played better in the work he was called upon to do. I can only recall one of his lucks that fc.il&d to 6nd touch, and I remember that these touch-finders were of the sort that gained much ground before arriving there. There was no opportunity uf seeing what the Cardiff back's tackling was like, but this was no fault of his. Bennett started indifferently, and never recovered. It did him no good to find the crowd in unsympathetic mood, and he must have welcomod the nnal whiaMe. He had an experience that will unnerve him for a time. But he's young, and will get over it. Game's Form on Saturday showed that he is returning to his best. He had the handicap of playing against Willie Llewellyn, who knows Gibe's moves, and who was able to check him more than once. Ralph Thomas. as his co-centre, is a decided acquisition to Cardin'. This player missed a chance of his cap by being unable to take part in last season's trial. If he keeps up his form he's likely to be a srt-rong candidate this sea-son. Gibbs did well in a position he is unused to. J. L. Williams proved himself once again very smart in gefbting through in little room. In his consis- tency he de&erves to be dubbed young Reliability." Percy Bush was in one of his happiest moods. He wa.a well supplied with payees by Dicky David, and, with the exception of failing to give to hia three-quarters in the style that helps thr&e-quarters best, he turned these passes to gocd account. Dicky Dqvid has improved very much. He got the ball away c'eauly. Hia pai'S play. however, lacked variety. To be continually feeding the same man breeds trouble for the receiver. Of the forwards Brown struck me as the best of a very hearty eight. Harding, Powell. and Neill were ever in the thick of it. Bum- below phone most in the open, but that is not saying that he hung out for the purpose. The Newport threes were disappointing. Allowance must be made for E. W. Gould. Accidents cling to the memory. But both the Newport captain and R. B. GrimthH, who had taken Uzzel's pLace in the centre, Lacked tnittative. I The hesitation, too, that let in Gabe, a.nd again Gtbbs. wa-nto conquering'. WilJie Llewellyn, with the centres on colour, had no rea.1 chance of a.ttaok. The parses sent both to him a-nd Willie Thomas were wicked samples. The ex-Aberavonite kept his end up with spirit as far aa defence coald do so. His effort in overtaking Bush was a good one. The forwards have been noticed. Ea-rlier in the eenaon I ventured to write t.ha.t Cardiff was likely to !:)e the team that would take Swansea/s seat of glory aa premier club for &aason 19C5-6. On top of la&t Satur- day's display that forecast looks good to Last. But just now I don't feel so mighty sure a-bout it. I think it Hhely tha.t the white-cheeted warriors from the west will, in spite of their g-ajneness, nght a, losing ba.tt!e on Saturday. But that will be at Cardiff. Lookrng ahead. Newport are far from being done with, and Saturday's result must not be stretched too far. Bes'deB, there's St. Helen's to visit. And low dcv.u I detect, the odour of something good in the Soapaii Fach. I fear me, though, thit tl'e ingredients are not yet a.ll in.

Applause.) Alderman Illtyd Thomas was appointed returning omcer for the Cathaya Ward. I

WELSH SCHOOLS RUGBY I UN!ON. Genera! Meeting at Swansea, j A general meeting of the committee of the j Welsh Schoolboys Rugby Union was held at t the Royal Hotel, Swansea. on Saturday even- t lug. under the presidency of Mr. A. w. bwash. c Cardin' The most interesting discussion was as to the proposed competitions for the IJewar Challenge Shield, objection being taken by the Swansea representatives to the association of the shield with the liquor traffic. The oiscus- sion wa.s chietly as to how tue shield shpu.td be awarded. It was proposed that the shield be alfoca.ted to the league which, in the opinion of the match committee, was the premier team of the season.. ?, o this an amendment was proposed that it ?bo e this an awarded on the league principle—each match won o&unttug two points. and a- draw one point. the minimum number of matches played to be three. Mr. Jenkins (Oardin'), in repl, y to the Snwan- sea, criticism of the shield, denied that it was given as a.n advertisement, and it was entirelv in the hands of each league whether they entered for it or not. Swan- sea, need not enter if Lhey objected. Mr Somers (Pontypndd) said he could not see the bene6t of the discussion at all. If the conscience of thoso who objectea was against their accepting H, he quite appre- ciated their position, but their repreaenta- tives on the match commltteo could announce tha-t they remained oatslde it.. It waa a matter for the ma-tch committee. The Chairman: It is optional for each league. The amendment wa.9 lost, a.nd the resolu- tion carried. Mr. Beynon (Swansea), alluding to the pro- position carried, asked, "Is this Dewaj" Shield put up for competition or not? The Chairman: The mover ha.s put his resolution in the terms he considered desir- able, and it is accepted by the meeting. Mr. Evans (Neath) suggested that a scheme be prepared for awarding the shield. The Chairman said that as the resolution stood the match committee had plenary powers. ? n + ?. 3ir. Beynon moved that the ma,wh com- mittee report to the general committee before the shield is awarded, and Mr. Ev&ne. Neath, eeconded.' Mr. Somers compl, ained that everything the match committee did seemed to be ques- tioned. He failed to see the common-sense of the proposal. The voting power on the match committee was the same as at the general meeting, and if they could not deal with the subject at the match committee they might as well do away with that com- mittee altogether. The Chairman said the match committee was a self-embodied committee with execu- tive power. The resolution was lost. Messrs. Smith, Somers, and Armstrong were appointed on the finance committee. A deputation wa.s appointed to lay before the Welsh Union the state of the finances of the various leagues. An amended date-March 1G-wa.s S'tlbmitted for the intema.tiona,! trial match at Neath, but the matter was, after some discussion, lp.ft to the ma-tch committee. The allocation of the JEM ?rant wac left to the finance and afterwards the match com- mittee. Attention wa. called to the great expense of entertaining viBiting teams. The Chairman said it ran away with all the proats.—Various suggestions were made, but subsequently the opinion was that the purpose had been served by the attention called to the master, and the previous question was carried.
