I Notes and Selections. DERBY, Wednesday Morning. The fixture concluded at Bath yesterda-y met with so large a measure of success that the experiment cf an August meeting is likely to be repeated, providing, of course, that the powers that be sanction the fixture. As I expected, the Bath Handica-p proved a rather "t thing for Galhrs, who wil be better known ae the Sibola coit, for he peered with ridiculous ease. Both the top-weights, K.C.B. and Black Sea., ran disappointingly in the heavy going, whilst Oa^bdneer failed to im- prove open his Gatwiek runomg. Racing of a fair class will be provided at Derby for the next few days, and this afternoon the valu- able Champion Breeders' Foal Stakes holds pride of place The nominations include several of the beat youngsters seen out this season, four of whom have not yet been beaten. Seaforth wdll be an. absentee. Spin- ning Jeany filly and Persephone will go close, but MAiN WOLF has won his three races in such easy style that there is no telling how good he is, and I shall rely on the north country candidate.

FROM THE "WESTERN MAIL."
FROM THE "WESTERN MAIL." Though Mr. Burfrby'e enterprise in seour Ing a summer fixture for Rath hardly met with a fadr trial owing to the atrocious weather, the management met- with suffi- cient encouragement as to justify a continua- tion of the experiment. Owing to the almost incessant, rain during the night and morning the goirtg was little bet.ter than a bed of mud, .and muoh of the form revealed at the mee-tin g can be wiped out of the memory as far a.8 its value for future reference is oon- cerned. Blfi/ck Sea, a dual winner recently, was unable to extend himself in the prin- cipal raoe, the Bath Handicap, Gallus land- ing a nioe coup for Mr. W. Singer, whose colours are popular here. The Derby meeting, which oo-mment-es to- day, is one of tbe moea important deemed in the Mjdlds during the year. This oar- tioular fixture gains additional importanoe from the fact that it nowadays marks the opening of the nursery season. No event of this kind ftg-uree on the first day's card, it is true, as by racing rule no such raoe may be run prior to September 1. With the Champion Breeders' FoaJ. Plate down for decision, however, there will be plenty of interest in the da.y's racing. Selections;- Port.Land Plate—PAX)DEN GTOX. ■ Bvrkiev Pla.te-F.HR EiLREN. Shipley Hall Plute-BUSTL-E.

WELSH COALFIELD ————
WELSH COALFIELD ———— Remarkable Speech by i Mr. Geo. Barker DELIVERED AT A PRIVATE MEETING Mr. W. Brace, M.P., and the Pressman At the meeting of the Western Valleys Miners' Council at Abertillery oil Tuesday Mr. G. Bark-or (miners' agent) spoke at length on the unrest in the coalfield. He said that the Conciliation Board bad been tried in the balance, and the scoop had always deflected to the employers' coffers, and the workers were conscious that they were being duped. In the shipping, fail-way, and mining indus-tries the workers were on the verge of revolt, and not without cause. The South Wales miners had recently been refused by Lord St. Aldwyn the meagre advance of 2J per cent. The owners' figures proved that there had been an increase in prices of 10.42d. per ton, which on a weekly output of a million tons meant that £ 41,000 was going additionally to the idle ehare- holdcrs, who were already reaping enormous profits. Even under the old agreement, the miners would be entitled to an advance of 74 per cert, on such a rise in prices, which on a weekly wage-sheet of £ 200,000 would have meant an additional £ 16,000 a week for the South Wales miners. Was there any wonder that there was unrest among the South Wales miners, an intelligent body of wealth-producers, who were being exploited in such an old Hebrew fashion? There would be more unrest soon. With reference to the proposed reform of the Federation, he would heartily recommend the sub-coinmittee which had been appointed to consider the amend- ment of the constitution to have a joint audit taken as to the selling prices of cc;al and the volume of trade and profits. He would also suggest that an auditor should be engaged for the purpose. If the audit was refused the executive comicil should call a general conference and advise the workmen to terminate their connection with the Con- ciliation Board. The owners and the workers were engaged jointly in the production of wealth, but while the owners knew what the workers received, the latter were in entire ignorance as to the profits of the owners. How could arbitration under Buch con- ditions give equitable results? All miners receiving less than the 3s. 4d. per day under the standard of 1879 with the per- centage should at once be authorised to apply for an advance to bring them up to that rate, and when such a reasonable request was'refused the men should be authorieed to tender a month's notice. That there were defects in the constitution of the Federation went without saying, but how was the execu- tive council of the Miners' Federation of Clreat Britain elected? How many members of the Federation had a, direct vote in the election of the body which had the power to direct the policy of the Federation? They should certainly be elected directly by the men who were governed by their policy. It was of the utmost importance that they should end the present foolish method of making the wage agreements for England, Scotland, and South Wales at different times. The present 6ystem was self-stultifying, j 'I'here should be a general wages committ.. consisting of one representative from each district, to specially collect information and watch the wage interests of the workmen. Its duty should be to level up the wages of a.11 under-paid workmen. There should be no delay in increasing the coirtribu- tiono to the Federation, bat not, in his opinion to create an out-of-work fund. There were probably always 5 per cent. of colliery employes idle, which would mean in South Wales that about £ 5,500 of the toto4 contributions would go every week in tha.t direction, and thus at the end of five yeans the workmen would be in the same position as they were now, only having the satisfac- tion of knowing that they had relieved the remainder of the community of their reERpon- sibiliiy for the relief of the unemployed workem of the ccai&eM. Instead of the increased contribution going for an out-of- vgu. l fund it should be utilised to create an efficient and powerful defenc-e and fighting fund. The starvation strike-pay of 106. per week should be increased to 15s. per week, and a, vigorous and militant policy should be adopted to increase the wages of the lower- paid men, including these working in abnormal places. It was on such lines that reforms should take place. The miners should also form an alliance with the rail waymen and Seamen's Union. The old method of a Union for each trade was obsolete, aji-d not in harmony with modern conditions. The capitalists were combined in buge trusts, and the workers should follow suit and have one interest—the securing for labour its full share of its product. Mr. W. Brace. M.P., who, as advisory agent, was present at the meeting, it is understood delivered a strong reply to Mr. Barker's speech, but when epoken to later by our representative he said that he could not give a summery of his speech, as he under- stood that the meeting was private and can- fined to the council
COLLIERS UNDER NOTICE I
COLLIERS UNDER NOTICE I The whole of the workmen employed at the Ely Fit. Na-val Collieries. Penygraig, numbering 1,100, who received notice to ter- minate contracts on the 1st of the month. vill stop work to-day. Efforts have been made to avert a Stoppage, but so far without trfooess The chief cause of the dispute is the failure to settle the price-list on what is known as the Bute Seam. The disagreement has existed for about eighteen months, and was reported to the Conciliation Board, who appoii-ted Mr. T Griffiths (Cymmer) and Alderman Enoch Morrell to try to effect a settlement. Nothing tangible resulted, but eince the failure of the arbitrators Mr. Llewellyn has conceded a great deal on the price to be paid for the clod. There is no feeling of bitterness shown by either side, as the workmen admit that the management must stop the pit to carry out some necessary repairs, and Mr. Llewellyn has offered to find work for as many as possible in the other two pits. Tredegar Men and Their Hours I At a meeting of Tredegar colliery workmen on Tuesday it VTSS decided TO request the management to fix the working hours as foilow-s:-Th,e first four days in the week, seven a.m. to three p.m.; Fridays, seven to four; and Saturdays, r>eve~i lo two. The present hoara are six a.m. to two p.m. every day i
DODGING" SHOW CARDS" I
DODGING" SHOW CARDS" I At the Federation offices, Bargoed, a special district meeting of the Rhymney Valley miners was held on Tuesday, Mr. W. J. Kevern presiding. Tiie following official report was supplied to the press:—" The agent reported that in the majority of the collieries in the district there were practically no non-Unionists, as the result of the last ",how ('erds. I But it was felt that a few delinquents had escaped the scrutiny of the (.,&rd examiners by being a-bsent from work the chief part of the last fortnight It was resolved tha-t te wit.h- drawal of the notices be loft to the discretion of the various collieries in order to meet with the exceptional conditions prevailing through the absence of non-Unionists from work But in any case, s-how cards' will be conducted regularly during the next rtoomfch."
- - CHARGE WITHDRAWN
CHARGE WITHDRAWN Henry William Richardson, a valuer, was charged at the Thames Police-court one day with obtaining C5 17s. from Simon Hart, with intent to cheat and defraud. Counsel who appeared to prosecute said that he had been instructed to withdraw the charge, on the ground that the money had been paid. The Magistrate: Yes, that is just it. The criminal law has been put in operation simply to get the money paid. I shall remand the prisoner, and send the papers to the Public Prosecutor. Counsel: I hope you won't do that. The Magistrate: I certainly shall. People are constantly trying on this sort of thing. The prisoner was remanded for a week.
POISONOUS HERB SUSPECTED
POISONOUS HERB SUSPECTED In consequence of the death of four cattle on Ely Racecourse Mr Hedger Wallace, the g ioultunal lecturer to the Glamorgan County Council, in company with Mr. A. C. Stewart, veterinary surgeon, Cardiff, visited the racecourse on Tuesday, and took various samples of the pasture for submission to the director of Kew Gardens and the Board of .Agriculture for examination. It is believed that the dead animals must have eaten a jKiisonous herb of some description.
I BOY'S AWFUL DEATH I - -
I BOY'S AWFUL DEATH I FALLS DOWN AN OLD PIT A sad accident is reported from Penyrheol, a ooiliery village near Gr.-erp-h.illy. Last evening Chancles Connelly, the four- year-old &on of John Conmelly, nghenydd- terrace, Penyrheol, went out to pick floweTS, accompanied by a. playmate, named Gater. They proceeded to Furnace Farm, and wan- dered towards an old disused pit, the shaft of which is surrounded by a wall. Connelly got through a hole in the wall, and, missing his foothold, fell down the shaft, which is 150 yards deep, and contains a large quantity of water. Efforts were made throughout the night, and again to-day, to recover the body, but without success.
Crippen in Infirmary
Crippen in Infirmary I NERVOUS REACTION AFTER STRAIN Mr. Arthur Newton, solicitor to Dr. Oriprpen, on Tuesday received intimation from the Brixton Prison authorities that his client had been removed to the prison infirmary owing to bis being unwell. Mr. Newton stated on Tuesday night that this did not mean that Crippen was in any way seriously ill, but that the prison doctors considered t,ho condition of his health called for special attention and dietary, which he would not be able to receive under ordinary conditions. It is understood that Crippen's illnjess is not of a serious nature. It is believed to be due to nervous reaction after the strain he natl undergone. Mr. Newton proposes to pay him a visit on Thursday. I CRIPPEN EXPLAINS. Crippen has given an explanation of the card with the farewell message which was found upon him, and of the statements he made to Chief-inspector Dew. "I cannot disouss the matter at this stage," Mj. Newton said to a press represen- tative; but I think the explanation is a good one." The Treasury counsel will be prepared when the hearing is resumed next Tuesday to go fully into the charges which were out- lined on Monday. Although no decision has yet been arrived at, it is probable that the charge of murder against Miss Le Neve will not be further proceeded with. It is expected that the magisterial proceed- ings will be completed in seven or eight sit- tings. Between twenty and thirty witnesses are likely to be called for the prosecution. The procedure has not yet been settled, but there is no intention, it is now stated, of ta,king the hearing day by day. There will rot be more than two sitting's a week, and probably only one.
Another Aerial Triumph
Another Aerial Triumph I AN AMBITIOUS AVIATION SCHEME Considerable interest has been aroused in aerial circles by the news which has just been made publio that the Lague Aerieane of France has been in negotiation with the municipalities of Boulogne and Folkestone with a new to the foundation of prizes for the inaueuiration of aerial transport between France and England. It is proposed to award the sum of L2,000 to the first airman who shall complete the journey between Boulogne and Folkestone and back again four times within one week and carrying one or two piassengers. In an interview with a press representative on Tuesday Mr. Stephen Marples, engineer to the Aerial Leagne of the British Empire, said that the marvellotis achievements of the past few months made it probable that, before a year was out, the feat would be accomplished and the prize won. Mr. Marples was prasent at the Boulogne meeting, at which it was suggested that, in order to make the condi- tions more difficult, a competing aeroplane should be required to be so constructed that it could, descend upon the surface of the water and rise again at will. Mr. Mairples hintod that a machine fulfilling these oondi- tion,s was already in existence, but details were at present lacking. "The advent of such a machine." he added, would mark a great advance, and there is no doubt that, in time, competitions will be organised in whioh aeroplanes will be required to descend upon water and ascend c,min. just as they now have to do upon the land Paris to London Flight A fortnight has elapsed since Mr. John B. Moisant started to fly from Paris to-London, and he is still stranded at Kemsing, the scene of the two most reoent mishaps which befell his monoplane. On Tuesday he was busily engaged repair- ing the damage whioh the Bleriot sustained on Sunday, and in an interview replied in the negative to a humorous question as to whether he intended to settle down in Kent. He also repudiated the suggestion that he should complete his journey to London by the South Eastern Railway, declaring that hp intended to fly there despite all obelaplea. He, however, intends to wait until tp wea.ther is calm enough for safe flight before making another attempt., saying he has had enough of flying in a gale. Irish Flying Meeting I A strong wind considerably interfered with the second day's programme of the aviation meeting at Leopaxdstown on Tuesday, and no flights were possible until shortly after four o'clock, when, the conditions having1 im- proved, Griboe came out and accomplished a performance which thrilled the spectators. He gained a.n altitude of between 300ft. and 400ft., but the wind had a. velocity of 25 miles an hour, the air currents were most uncer- tain, and the aviator's monoplane dipped and swayed considerably. Grace endea- voiured to make a turn within the aerodrome, but, swept on by sudden wind-bursts, he flew on a mile or so towards the hills, where the atmosphere was calmer. He accom- plished a fine turn, and returned to the aero- drome amid loud cheers. There be again encountered fierce rushes of wind, and to the spectators the machine seemed to be dropping and swaying in a.n alarming manner. Grace, however, maintained splendid nerve, and he finally alighted in a skilful manner, making the descent outside the course in order to avoid some trees. He was enthusiastically cheered by the spectators.
Whilst Making Speech
Whilst Making Speech —— DEVON ALDERMAN'S SUDDEN END A Tiverton (Devon) correspondent says that Alderman John Harwood, the oldest mem- ber of the Tiverton Town Council, died suddenly on Tuesday evening, whilst speak- ing at a meeting of the Tiverton Agricultural Association, of wlrich he was secretary. -H,a h-ad j?? of wlrich he w-,ts seGretar,.v. He had explained certain procedure at the recent show when he was seen to be falling. Dr. Mackenzie, who sat next to him, intercepted the fall, and Mr. Herwood was lifted on to a table, upon which he died in less than ten minutes. The meeting abruptl-y ended. Alderman Harwood was also secretary of the Minorca Olub of Great Britain, a well- known poultry judge, and a prominent man in Devon. He was 63 years of age.
ITEACHING OF WELSH
I TEACHING OF WELSH A letter from the headmistress of the Whitchurch Girls' School was read at a meeting of the Caerphilly Group of School Managers on Tuesday with regard to the teaching of Welsh in her school. She asked the managers to give up bhe teaching of this subject, as hers was an entirely English- speaking district. There was no Welsh place of worship at Whitchurch, and the girls got no outside practice. Her teachers onlyspoke Welsh in a very laboured manner, so the giris oould not get on as they would. She thought if more time were given to theetudy of Welsh history instead of to the aotuaj language she could teach the girls to learn and to love the country, its history, and its heroes, and, in short, to be true patriots. The managers decided, by the casting vote of the chairman, to continue teaching Welsh as before.
G0RSE HALL CRIME
G0RSE HALL CRIME | t Arrest at Gaol Gates SENSATIONAL DEVELOPMENT The mastery of the murder at G-crree Hall on November 1 of hast ytar was again brought before the public on Tuesday, when a man was arrarteil and remanded charged with the murder of Air. Storrs. The prisoner is an ex-soldier, named Mark Wilde, and he was taken into custody on Tuesday morning oil his release from Xnutslord Gaol, where he had been serving j a term of imprisonment for another offence. He was met on his liberation by Mr. Leah, d-eputy-e-hief constable of Cheshire, and Inspector Brewster, of the Dukinfield police, I and in their charge he was conveyed to Dukinfield. I BEFORE THE MAGISTRATES. I Considerable local interest was taken in the Citse when in the afternoon Wilde was brought before the mayor (Councillor William Underwood) and another magistrate at Dukinfield Police-court, and charged "for that he did feloniously and with malice afore- thought kill and murder one George Harry Storrs by stabbing him at Dukinfield on the night of November 1 last." The prisoner was represented by Mr. W. F. Chambers J solicitor, of Denton, and among t-he large attendance in court were his father and I mother. Mr. lea-la informed the bench of the events leading up to Wilde'6 arrest. He said that until June 23 the prisoner resided with his parents at StaJybridge, but. upon tha.t date he came into the bauds of the police upon a certain chargc. Since that time very care- ful investigation had been made by the police with a view to ascertaining whether there was any possibility of the prisoner havmg any connection with the Gorse Ilall murder. As the result of those inquiries the chief-con- btable of Cheshire gave instructions for the arrest of the prisoner on his release from Knutsford Gaol. Inspector Brewster, the onlx witness called, stated that he arrested the prisoner at Knuts- ford Gaol at nine o'clock that morning. He I charged him with the murder, and Wilde replied, Well, I am not guilty; that is all I have to say." The Deputy-Chief-oonstable^ on thie evi- dence, asked for a remand for a week when a representative of the Public Prosecutor would be in attendance. I A CASE OF SUSPICION. I Mr. Chambers, for the prisoner, said ne had no objection to a refhaji-d, but observed that it was only a case of suspicion, there lia-v Ing been a murder in the district Borne time ago for which a man was tried and acquitted. The author of that murder had not been discovered, and they would remember that in that case a great deal of evirienoe was given, and that nearly every witness called for the pro se-gution Fpok-a in most emphatic terms as to the idontity of the man acquitted. Under those circum- stances, he applied that prisoner should be allowed out on bail. The Deputy chief constable strongly objected, and the application was refused. The prisoner was remanded until next Tuesday.
Horse Show FeaturesI
Horse Show Features I I POLO BALL COMPETITION; MUSICAL I CHAIRS I To-day Cardiff will be the Mecca of the horse lover, and, fine weather assured, the Sophia Gardens Park will present as gay and animated a scene as on any occasion in the past during the Cardiff Horse Show. Rack- ing next to that of Dublin, the Cardiff Horse Show hardly needs booming, but it is well to remind the public that the important a.nnual event has come round agaiu, and will open this morning. A tour of the ground on Tuesday showed that everything was in apple-pie order, the commodious, well- appointed grand stand being, as usual, a feature of which the committee may well be proud. A gentlemian who could speak with authority informed our representative that he attended every horse show of any pretensions throughout the country, and la-a knew of no yard so well circumstanced as regards site or more advantageously laid out from the spectator's point of view. A glance over the area. certainly impressed one by its extent and arrangement, the belt of trees encircling it giving the whole a sylvan attractiveness. It was evident that several new features have been added this year by the commit- tee, every one of them intended to enhance the popularity of the show, by introducing classes and events which, whilst appertain- ing w the horse, added interest and pleasure for the public in general. In this category may be placed the polo ball competition and the polo musical chairs, both new classes, for which there are splendid entries. The trotting classes are to be judged on a new principle, the introduction of handicaps and heats being one of the innovations. Army needs are given special attention in the new lreouianry and Remount classes, the prizes in the latter being given by the War Office, with the view of encouraging the breeding of animals suitable for the Regular Service, whilst the Artillery competition and drive are intended Lo foster wider and more intel- ligent interest in the Territorial Force, par- ticularly with regard to driving. Another attractive new feature is the group of classes for Welsh cobs and ponies, the sturdy little animals that command fancy prices whenever they possess the true quali- ties of the breed. The class for Welsh weight-carrying cobs is being re-instated, and the class for ponies (boys up) is intended to encourage country lads, stable-boys, &c., to pay more attention to the useful pony. There are three new trophies offered for oompetition, namely, the City of Cardiff Challenge Cup, the Glamorgan County Chal- lenge Cup, and the Sha-ndon Challenge Cup, the latter the gift of Mr. W. J. Tatem, a-nd each is expected to attract increasing inte- rest. These are not the only departures which the comaiittee are to be commended upon. At the back of the grand-stand a spacious enclosure has been set apart for social re-unioiitj, the band-stand, which will be occupied by the band of the Royal Artillery (Plymouth Division), being placed within this area. All holders of grand-stand tickets of 2s. 6d. and upwards will have free access to the enclosure, and general admission will be allowed on payment of one shilling. This provision is a certainly wise one, for, apart from the primary objects of the show, the social side of the event is always highly important, especially from the ladies' stand- point. Given agreeable weather, the ladies appear in the latest modes, and this setting apart of a special enclosure for social re-unions can-not fail to be appreciated not only by the elite, but also by those of the general public who are fond of admiring the latest creations in the modiste's art. Pa.rt of the enclosure will be reserved for the pro- vision of aJ-freseo teas, and as the catering has been entrusted to a first-class firm, this innovation, also, is sure to be a successful one—always provided the weather is pro- pitious. Details have already been published in these columns showing the high standard of the exhibit.^ entered for competition, and it need only be reiterated that the cream of the horse show rings of the kingdom will be seen before the judges during the two days. The committee have worked with the utmost assiduity to provide for the public a truly attractive programme of competitions and other interesting events, and they are magnanimous enough to allow that the lion's share of the preliminary arrangements on the ground have fallen to the lot of Colonel Henry Lewis and Mr. Berkeley (the general secretary), who have spent a great part of their time on the spot daily for the last month. I EVENING AMUSEMENTS. On the evening,of both days there will be a brilliant illumination of the Sophia G-ardens and fireworks, together with music of a high order, and it is expected that large crowds will avail themselves of these attrac- tions, for which popular prices of admission have been fixed J T

DUNCAN DEFEATED
DUNCAN DEFEATED I WELSH GOLF MEETING Surprising Results Yesterday I The pemiltimatie stage in the Welsh Amateur Golf Championship was reached on Tuesday, when ilessrs. George Renwick (Royal Porthcawl) and R. M. Brown (Swansea Bay) qualified for the final. The weather con- ditions were considerably better than on the previous day, although the players had a good stiff westerly breeze to contend with. Mr. John Duncan (Glamorganshire) had a clomparativoly easy victory over Mr. H. B. Winfield, of Radyr, defeating him by 3 up and 2 to play. Neither of the players was at his best. The champion was 1 up at the turn, and eventually won by 5 up at the six- teenth hole. Mr. Geo. Eenwick (Royal Porth- cawl) also had a comparatively easy victory, defeating Ifr. J. R. Morgan (Monmouthshire) by 8 a.nd 7. Mr. Renwick had a good out- ward round, finishing 4 under bogey. Mr. L. H. Gottwaltz (Southerndown) and Mr. A. Paton (Swansea Bay) had a close game, the former eventually winning by 2 up and 1 to play. Mr. It. M. Brown, of Swansea, Bay, gave Mr. A. Smith, of Ashburnham, a hard game, and eventually won by 3 and 1. CHAMPION'S DEFEAT. In the semi-final rounds Mr. George Ren- wick, who has previously won the title twice, bad a sensational win over Mr. John Duncan, the holder, defeating him by 5 up and 4 to play.

NEWS OF THE CHES. I RESIGNATION OF VICAR OF I LLANDING *<t. I The Jttew fcibeueaer Jonw, M.A., has, in consequence of ill-health, resigned the vicariate of l.landingat, Llandovery, and his resignation will be received with real sorrow in the parish, for during his thirteen years of incumbency he has made himself extremely popular with Churchmen and Noncon- formists alike. The leT- gentleman has proved himself an indefatigable worker in the cause of the Church, identifying himself with every movement that made for the moral, intellectual, and social elevation of the people under his charge. During his incumbency the restoration of Llandingat Church and tower was accomplished, although it involved the heavy expenditure of £ 3,000. This was done in memory of the late Vicar Pritchard, and it is gratifying to state that a considerable sum is now in hand for the purposes of raising a special monument as well for Vicar Pritchard. The National Schools were also renovated at a cost of .CI,ODO, whilst mainly through the vicar's exertions and influence the mnch-needed extension to Llandingat Cllljrohyard was secured. The rev. gentleman was educated at Llandovery College. He obtained his B.A. degree at Oxford in 1876, and his M.A. degree two years later. In the same year he was ordained by the late Bishop of St. David's to the curacy of Llangatk, Bre- cons hire In 1881 he became senior curate of St. Peter's. Carmarthen, and four yearn later 1/ord Cawdor presented him to the living of Llanfihangel Aberbythich, Golden Grove. He became vicar of Llanbadarn Fawr in 1893. and in 1897 was appointed to the vicariate of Llandingat, LlaDdovery. He has been a member of the St. David's Diocesan Con- ference for over twenty years. He is also a governor of the South Wales Training Col- lege at Carmarthen. For many years he acted as secretary of the Choral Union for the Archdeaconry of Carmarthen, and subse- quently of the Arcliidiaconal Board of Education. Some of his contemporaries at Oxford were the Bishops of St. Aeaph and St. David's, while the Bishop of Chester was there as lecturer. The present Prime Minis- ter we.- there also, a brilliant undergraduate Of Balliol a.nd president of the Union. The rev. gentleman at one time took a deep inte- rest in athleticism. He was in the Llandovery College eleven which soored a victory at Brecon in 1872, and captained the boat at his college when his old friend Alderman C. P. Lewis of Llandovery, oaptained the cricket eleven. NEW CANON OF ST. ASAPH. I The new re^idemtuwy canon of St. Asaph, the Rev. Daniel Davies. is a South Walian, and was born in the neighbourhood of Lam- peter about 45 years ago. He was educated at the old classical school of Ystradmeurig, and from there he went up to St. John's College, Cambridge, where he graduated in double honours, taking two seconds. Those who were his contemporaries remember the disappointment of his tutors at. his break- down in health, which prevented his taking the position in his finals they had marked out for him. Since his ordination in 1887 his promotion from one position to another has been rapid. and in 1906 his fellow-clergy paid him the compliment of returning him as their proctor in Convocation at the bead of the poll, after a keenly contested election. In 1907 he was appointed to the vicarage of Wrexham, and his promotion to the vacant residentiary canonry was generally antici- pated. in the diooeca.
