HIBERNIA BENEFIT SOCIETY. ANNIVERSARY DINNER, i On Monday night the first anniversary dinner & of the Cadoxton. Barry Hibernia Benefit Society Was held at the Witchill Hotel. Cadoxton, under the presidency of Dr. O'Donnell. Among those Present were Fathers Hyde (Cardiff) and Hyland, Messrs W. Williams (Kenilworth-road), J. D. O'Donnell. 0. M'Cann. F. P. Jones-Lloyd, Dr. Buist, J. Greener, J. McDonnell, Beattie. Morris. 0. Driscoll (president of the branch), and two sons, Dooley. Lyle, James Carey. Sullivan.

Owen Mooney, James Sullivan, John Welsh, Pritchard. M. Collin, and MeLoughlan. After the usual loyal toast, Mr. McDonnell sang "Dear little Shamrock." z;1 Father Hyland proposed '• The Welfare and Prosperity to the Lodge." He said that he need not expatiate on the utility and benefit that were derived from joining such a society as the IlIbernia Benefit Society. He proposed the toast e°n, a more, for as a clergyman he knew how much ITOod it did to its members. The benefits such societies confer were really unspeakable, especially the most important periods in life, in sick- 11esss and at death. (Hear, hear.) The clergyman *nd the doctor saw the dark side of life, when ^en and women lay on a bed of pain and of ex- Wstion, and if there is a time when they want tnore nourishment than at other times it was at those periods. Yet at that very time people who had no benefit society to fall back upon are ex- hausted. their wages ceased, even their furniture pawned, and no provision had been made for 4 funeral. After mentiyning a very sad case of this sort of improvidence, he said that out of evil good had come, for all the neighbours within a tnouth joined a friendly society. He exhorted fcheni to persevere well for tim.: ke thofFwives 44d children, and bring those blessings to their friends and neighbours. In wishing success to that young, thriving, anp prosperous lodge-(applause) -be would like to impress on every member the duty that lay on him to bring another. It did not ^tter even that some belonged to another society. He would urge on all of thetn to belong to more than one, for then during sickness their incomes J^uld be increased, and at death their wives and families would be better provided for. He was tflad to hear that a juvenile branch was about being started in connection with the lodge, and he ^artily wished it success. (Loud applause). After Mr. Fullerton had sang Angels' Whispers." O'Driscoll (president of the lodge) responded, it \sras the first time, he said, that he had had oc- casion to speak as president of the lodge. He "çuld like to emphasise what Father Hyland had Said as to the duty of bringing others in. for his ^perience showed that a poor man without a •^Uefit society was a poor man indeed. (Loud cheers.)—Mr. "McDonnell (the secretary of the oQg-e) also responded. He said he had been con- nected with the lodge from its commencement, in April. 1890. and he had been the first president, had been secretary since last January. He Was o-lad to say that the lodge was making S°od progress. When it was started the number 'of members was 44, at the end of the half-year it 52. now it was 62 with the honorary mem- ^s. There were several members in arrears— Aether out of carelessness or owing to the fact ^at they were out of work, he could not say. If "Was because they were out of work, he would to remind them that they had a benevolent in connection with the lodge, and would be *ery glad to advance the money to keep them in ^mpliance. (Hear, hear.) It was intended to *Wt a juvenile branch, a start, he thought, in the ^Sht direction. This branch svould be started next year. (Cheers.) Another alteration shortly be made. Arrangements were made to "enable members who left for Cardiff receive the services of the Cardiff Lodge !f°ctor without any extra charge. (Cheers.) As J the finances of the lodge, £ 40 had been in- -sted at 21 per cent. at the savings bank, and l5e balance in hand was £ 4 9s. 2.Jd.—a gain 2 £ 3 10s. since the half year's end. He J^hed to thank those who were not Y^iicial members, and especially Father Hyland, O'Donnell, Mr. John Hayes, and Mr. McCann :c subscribing so literally towards the banner (Cheers.) The total amount of funds in hand' was over £ 50. (Loud cheers.) 5e hoped that within a short time they ^°lld have a good banner, and trusted that ^°se who couldn't afford it would come for- ^<1 to subscribe. (Laughter and applause.)— Jtter a song from Mr. Dooley, which was loudly ^lauded. Dr. O'Donnell briefly proposed the ijisitors." He thanked the Cardiff visitors for present, and hoped that next time there ^°tild be more members and more visitors. (Ap- j'atise.)—Father Hayde (Cardiff), in response, ^3 that he had visited Cadoxton 18 years ago in hl8 capacity as priest, and since his return to iff some four years ago lie had been often the district. When he came down to the ^teddfod some time ago, he had remarked on the ™°nderf'ul change that had come over the district he first knew it. He was glad to find that v^t progress was made as well among the Irish Population. (Applause.) He took great interest w} Irish movements, especially in progressive Jr^Ces like BaiTy) and in the Hibernia Societies he the liveliest interest. He would like to im- upon them that they should all* become jostles—(laughter)—and induce others to join s ^ell. (Applause.) He was sorry—and he was b e thev were — that Father Butler was 444 le to be there. (Hear, hear.) He hoped in a year's time their members would not J 60, but 100 or 200. (Hear, hear.) If they tha.tlted people to believe they were in earnest, fYey should get a grand, gorgeous banner. ^Ughter and cheers.) lie was glad to hear a fUTU"[ had been started, and he would be w to subscribe, and manv others at Cardiff j°Ulrl do likewise. (Cheers.) He thanked them JT the very hearty way in which they had re- ei^ed the toast. (Loud svuplause.) ^r. Buist (Cardiff) sa:d it reflected great credit J? them that so young a lodge had so many jJjUibers and so many'visitors. Referring to the lance-sheet, he congratulated the ledge on the Jj^Uce they had in hand and the smallness of sick pay during the past half-year. (Cheers.) J.J%. F. P."Jones-Lloyd, who also responded, said k/^t he was '"lad to see that the loftae was pros- so well. Its flourishing condition showed it -vvas led by most able leaders.

GRAND EISTEDDFOD AT FERNDALE.
GRAND EISTEDDFOD AT FERNDALE. A GIGANTIC SUCCESS. LLAXELLY AND DOWLAIS VICTORIOUS. On Monday last (Mabon's Day) a grand eistedd- fod was held at Ferndale in a large and spacious marquees erected for the purpose. Fortunately the pleasure seekers were favoured with Queen's weather," although on Sunday many of the com- mittee men looked anything but sanguine as to the success of the gathering. Monday, however, dis- pelled all such fears, for when the dawn broke a thousand eager eyes examined the horizon, and many were the anxious queries anent the weather. Thousands travelled to Ferndale by the ordinary and special trains which ran thither, and the town presented quite a gay appearance, for in addition to the flags and streamers which pointed to the field where the marquee had been erected, many of the inhabitants had also decorated their windows with a motley collection of banners. The marquee itself was nicely decorated with appropri- ate mottoes such as-" Goreu axf. arf dysg," Fy iaith, fy ngwlad. fy ngenedl," Y G-wir yn eroyn y Byd," '• Calon wrth Galon," &c., &c. The presi- dents for the day were—Messrs. D. Hannah, C.E., and T. Bevan. and the conductor, Mr. E. J. Thomas, Ferndale and the following were the adjudica- tors — Music. Messrs. John North Hudders- field, and D. W. Lewis, F.T.S.C. Brynaman; bands. T. Seddon. Kettering literary, Rev. E. Rees (Dyfed) drawing, R. Thomp- son, Ferndale while Mr. C. L. Jones Ferndale, accompanied at the piano. The atten- dance during the early part of the day was com- paratively thin, but soon after two o'clock the crowds congregated to hear the second choral competition, for which a prize of £15 was given. But, although four choirs had entered, one only made its appearance, and, although this choir sang welljiiy^ worthy of the prize, the arrangements, to Tiuote the adjudicator's words, were very bad. The large assembly was at its prime, however, when the time for th^chief choral competition ap- proached. and it is estimated that there were present at that time over 5,000 persons. A most novel asnd interesting competition took place in connection with each choral competition—namely, the grant- ing of a gold or silver medal to the leader of the choir or band which occupied the platform for the least time. The absence of Mr. Fred L. Davis, who was to have presided, was much regretted, but in Mr. Hannah a most efficient substitute was found. The proceedings in the pavilion commenced shortly after eleven o'clock. The adjudicators were :—Musical, Mr. John North, Huddersfield, and Mr. W. Lewis. F.T.S.C., Brynaman bands, Mr. T. Seddon, Kettering; literary. Rev. E. Rees (Dyfed), Cardiff drawing, Mr. R. Thompson, Board Schools, Ferndale. Mr. C. L. Jones, Fern- dale, presided at the instruments, while the ar- duous duties which invariably devolve upon the secretary in gatherings of this nature were cour- teously and ably discharged by Mr. H. T..Richards. Mr. E. J. Thomas was the conductor, and in that capacity acquitted himself with efficiency. Mr. D. Hannah, general manager of the Fern- dale Collieries, then took the chair, and in the course of his address expressed deep regret at the absence of Mr. F. L. Davis. (Hear, hear.) He was glad at that early stage of the proceedings to be able to heartily congratulate the committee upon the success of that venture. Fate favoured them, for already the audience was large, and as the day advanced the genial sunshine that pre- vailed would doubtless induce hundreds of others to attend the proceedings. (Applause.) THE COMPETITIONS. The competitions were next proceeded with, the first item being the principal brass band competi- tion for the best rendition of the fantasia Linda di Chamounix." The prizes were-1st, £12: 2nd, £6 and 3rd, £2; while a silver medal was offered to the conductor whose band would occupy the platform for the least time. The contest was under the rules of the Brass Band Association, and four competitors had entered. The Mountain Ash Volunteer Band, however, for some reason, did not put in an appearance. The competitors appeared and played in the following order:—1. The Llanelly Town Band—conductor, Mr. James Samuel: 2, Cymmer Colliery Band—conductor, Mr. R. Martin 3, Hentre Volunteer Band—con- ductor. Mr. J. Blemev. At an earlier hour in the day these bands, with the exception of Cymmer. competed also for the best rendition of a quick step, which took place in the main, street. —Mr. T. Seddon, in delivering the adjudi- cation. said that the playing of the bands that day had very much improved since he had hoard tlVlll last, and that was some long time ago. They were progressinar in the right way, and in a few years they would doubt- less be able to compete with the better bauds of the North of England. He found, that there was very little difference in the playing of the two bands on the streets. None of thpin were good, and none of them were bad. In the quick step he awarded the first prize to Llanelly, and the second to Pentre. (Loud cheers.) In the contest on the fantasia, every band made a great many mistakes, and played it very indifferently, too. The best performance was given by the Llaneily band. to whom he would award the first prize. He had great difficulty in deciding between fhe Cymmer and Pentre bands, but after carefully going over his notes he found he would have to give the second prize to the Pentre band and the third to Cymmer. (Loud applause.) Mr. R. Thompson gave the award in the com- petition for the silver medal, and gave the time occupied by each band on the platform as follows: — Llaneily, llmin. 45secs. Cymmer. llmin. 25secs. Pentre, llmin. 8sec. The medal was, therefore, won by the Pentre band. There was no fewer than 17 entries in the baritone solo competition, in which the munificent premium of 12s. 6d. was oiT^red for the best ren- dering of Mr. R. S. Hughes' soul-stirring solo. Merch y Cadben." Five of these were selected at the preliminary contest to sing in the Eisteddvod pavilion. The prize was eventually divided between Mr. John Broad, Traorky, and Mr. David Jenkins. Pencb wdd, Swansea. In the tenor solo competition the test piece was "Y Whd Well," and the prize a guinea. Eight competed, and the winner was Mr. W. James, Aberaman. Mr. W. George (Myfyr Dyfed). Ferndale, was the author of the best song on "The Heir of 'Bryn Derwen," and was awarded a guinea. Dyfed, who adjudicated, said there was only one other-com- petitor. but he had sung to Mr. F. L. Davies, in evident ignorance of the fact that Bryndenven had now another heir. A guinea premium, given by Mr. F. Atkins. Mus. Bac.. for playing the pianforte solo "Angela," attracted three competitors. The winner was Mr. W. Morgan, Dowlais. Mr. John North pointed out that not one of the competitors had played the piece well. and there was great room for improve- ment. The test-piece, he considered, was rather too difficult. He congratulated the committee upon offering the prize, and urged eisteddvod com- mittees in general to give greater inducements for the cultivation of orchestral music in Wales by offering substantial prizes for competitions on string instruments. (Cheers.) Twenty-seven congregational tunes were re- cCived, and the adjudicator, Mr. D. W. Lewis, "Brynaman, declared the one sent in by Mr. G. T. ;Davies, G.T.S.C., Hirwain, te be the best. The juvenile choral contest attracted consider- able interest. The Penuel Band of Hope Choir >iiad sent in their names, but did not appear, so that the contest was between the Ynus Tempe- rance Choir, Ynishir, led by Mr. J. Howells, &nd the Clydach Vale Juvenile Choir, conducted 'by M*. David Thomas. The test piece was Victory." and the prize £4. Mr. D. W. Lewis, in giving tile award, spoke highly of the quality of the singing. The Ynyshir party sang clearly, had good inton&- tion, and a better expression than the Clydach Vale juveniles, but the sopranos of the last-named party were far superior to those of the former. He awarfced the prize to the Ynyshir Choir. (Loud applause.)—The Y-eyshir party also secured the silver medal, the time occupied on the platform being 2 min. 45 sec., as against 3 min. 41 sec. for the Clydach Vale party. Out of four choirs that had entered for "the second cfcoral competisn one only appeared, viz.. the Taberiaacle Choral Society, Merthyr, conducted by Mr. R&es Abraham. The three absent choirs hailed frons. Aberdare. Mwantain Ash, and Blaeny- cwm. The ?.est piece Wlli!3 Alaw Ddu's glee, "Y Gwlithyn," and the premium amounted to '£15 with a silvet- medal for the best order. The Merthyr Chok were awarded the prize and the medal, their singing being highly commended. The winner of the prize for the best essay on "Present Requirements of Ferndale was a com- petitor signing himself "Pro Bono Publico," though, as Dyfed remarked, he would have done better to have adopted a Welsh nun de plume, for the essaj bore no evidence of the learning which the name implied. (Laughter.) The real name of the essayist did not transpire. At this stage of the proceedings Miss R. A. Jenkins, of Ferndale, rendered the solo, The Missing Boat," for which she was heartily ap- plauded, while subsequently, to while away the waiting time for the appearance of the contestants in the chief choral competition, Eos Dar." the official penillion singer at the Swansea Eistedd- fod, led the audience in the singing of the Welah Sfatlonal Anthem. Dyfed delivered the adjudication on the chair ode contest, the subject being Truth." A prize of three guinaas was offered and a carved oak chair, presented by Mr. W. R. Davies. Ferndale. Three compositions were received, the best being the ode sent in hv 41 Pererin." who turned out to be the Rev. M. E. Thomas ("Cynwyd"), Calvinistic Methodist preacher, Cardiff. The successful bard was escorted to the platform by the bards present. and installed in the chair with the usual rites and ceremonies. CHIEF CHORAL COMPETITION. The principal event of the day followed, viz., the chief choral competition. The test pieces were two out of the three pieces sung in the chief choral contest at Swansea, viz., He watching over Israel" (Mendelssohn) and "Now the im- petuous torrents rise" (Jenkins). The prizes were P-93 to the successful choir, with £ 10 added to the conductor, and £ 2 to the conductor of each of the unsuccessful choirs. A gold medal, pre- sented by Mr. E. T. Seeley, was offered for the best order in this competition. Three choirs competed, and sang in the following order :—1. Rhondda Philharmonic Society, conducted by Mr. D. T. Prosser 2, the Ynyshir United Choir, conducted by Mr. Gwilym Thomas and 3, the Dowlais Har- monic Society, under the baton of Mr. Dan Davies. The contest lasted exactly one hour. Mr. J. North, in delivering the adjudication of Mr. Lewis and himself, said that they would all agree that they had had that day the very best sample of choral singing. (Hear, hear.) As re- garded the first choir (Rhondda Philharmonic), he was certain he had never heard a finer or more beautiful quality of treble. (Applause.) Indeed, the general quality of tone was really beautiful. There was no forcing after effect, and no strain- ing of anything. The general style of attack in the first chorus, Now the impetuous torrents rise," was really excellent. There were one or two points, however, he did not agree with. and one of these was the forcing of the contraltos. In the piano movement at the end they came out fine, but the forcing in the fortissimo passages spoilt the blending of the choir. He was certain that they might have made more of the second chorus than they did. There was not that beauti- ful blending of tone which might have been ex- pected. and the parts were not dovetailed into each other as they should have liked to hear it. In the singing of that chorus they had certainly lost points that day. The second choir (Ynyshir) was evidently not quite so well up in parts as the first choir. The remarks as to the contralto applied to this choir most forcibly. The contralto was very bad indeed at times, and in the per- formance of Mendelssohn's chorus they were not always correct in their intonation. It seemed to them as if the soprano did not sing E sharp in the movement as they should have done. Taking the choir altogether there were some very mag- nificent voices in it, and notably so the bass. In Mr. Jenkins's piece the bass built up the chorus wonderfully well. No. 3 (Dowlais) had also some very fine voices-indeed, it was a very powerful choir. They should bear in mind that it was not the choir that made the biggest noise that always sang best. The sopranos in this choir were really wonderful. They had immense power and splendid quality. For precision their performance of Mr. Jenkins's composition was magnificent. They sang like one man with reference to Mendelssohn's piece. There were one or two points in the performance by this choir he could not agree with. He did not believe in exaggeration of expression nor did he think that in order to give a beautiful rendering of that chorus it was necessary that each accented syllable should be accented so strongly. There was a tearing of the piece in the fortissimo at times, but in the subdued parts they sang with beautiful taste. They awarded the first prize to Dowlais. (Loud applause.) Mr. Dan Davies was then invested amid consid?rable enthusiasm. The Ynyshir Choir secured the gold medal for the best order. The next item on the programme was then taken Contralto solo, Oh, can the eternal ?" prize one guinea. Nine competitors, of whom four were elected to appear before the audience. Best, Miss Edith Parry, Ystrad, pupil of Madame Williams-Penn, Pontypridd. Trio, On Thee each loving soul awaits," prize z, two guineas. Two parties sang, and the prize was awarded to Mr. Idris Thomas and party, Ynyshir. Recitation, "The Johnstown Disaster;" prize, a beautiful gold medal, value 7el 10s. There were 20 competitors, of whom six appeared before the audience, and the prize was awarded to Mr. T. Rees. Aberaman. Adjudication on freehand drawing of Mr. Glad- stone. for which a prize of 10s. 6d. had been offered. Best, a hid named David John Jones, Ferndale. The male voice conTp^'iti^n took place at a late hour. The prize offered was ,f; 20, and the test piece. The Pilgrims." The p-ize was awarded to the Rhondda Vale Male Voree Society, conducted by Mr. Tom Stephens. Bass solo, Mr. Jacob Matthews, Ferndale. So- prano solo. Llinos Afan f.nd Miss R. A. Jenkins, Ferndale (equal).
MUSICAL FESTIVAL AT TONYREFAIL.
MUSICAL FESTIVAL AT TONYREFAIL. On Monday last the Calvinistic Methodists of the Llantrisant district, assisted by Pentyrch choir, held their annual musical festival at the above place, under the able conductorship of Mr. D. Jenkins, Mus. Bac., Aberystwyth, who was in his usual hwyl. About 300 choristers had come to- gether, and the singing was good throughout: but the rendering of the Psalm tunes and the tane Shamut" was exceedingly good; also the ren- dering of the anthem, I'n Heglwys Hofênsaf" (Jenkins), and" 310eswch i'r Arglwydd" (George Thomas) was given with effect. The former an- them was rendered in memory of the late patri- arch. Rev. W. Evans. Tonyrefail, the whole con- gregation standing up when the choir rendered the anthem, in respect to his (deceased's) memory. The morning meeting was set apart more -espe- cially to the juveniles. Morning meeting was presided over by the Rev. H. Jones, Cwmbach, Rev. D. Glyn Jones introducing the meeting with reading and prayer. The following selected pieces were given at this meeting :— Mac nghartref yn y nefoedd," "Paid. Gristion. son am orphwvs," 0 na bawn fel lesu," Can y Milwr," Arbed yn helaeth," Mae pob peth yn dda," Ai difater genyt ein colli ni ?" Dyddiau hyfryd." A very suitable address was delivered by the President and the Rev. W. Samlet Williams, Briton Ferry, on congregational singing. The meeting was closed with prayer tjy the Rev. W. Williams. Croesfaen. At 2 p.m. the meeting was commenced by the Rev. J. Griffiths. Cardiff, the Rev. W. Williams, Croesfaen, presiding. The following tunes were rendered :—" Dussoldorf" Trefaldwyn;" "Aeron," Liverpool." Angels' Hymn," St. Sarnabas," lfalclivyn," Psalm tunes 3 and 4 .(Jenkins's "Gemau Mawl "), <4 Gwynfydau" and "Mab Afradlon;" anthem, I'n. Heglwys IIofftMaf (Jen- kins). A very stirring address was delivered by the Rev. S. Jones Davies, Pentyrch, who spoke also very strongly against the practice of singing sacred tunes and hymns in pnKichouses. in railway carriages, and in eisteddfodau, as is the practice of some people these days when they try to get unruly people ruly. He considered it notbing but sacreligious for men to sing these good tunes and hymns a few minutes after enreing and swearing and blaspheming. It is high time that Christian people should raise their voices against such sacreligious practices. The remarks, were received with evident approbation. The Rev. Samlet Williams closed with prayer. At 5.30 p.m. the next meeting wae in- troduced by the Rev. S. Jones Bavies, Rev. W. Samlet Williams presiding. The fol- lowing tunes, &:c., were rendered Dian- dovery." Shawmnt." Whitford," CrugyTa&r," and "Liverpool:" Psalm tone No. 3 antfecm, "Ai gwir yw" (R. Mills), and "Moeswch i'r Ar- glwydd" (John Thomas). The conductor referred to the remarks made by Mr. Davies, Pentyrch, in the afternocn concerning the sacreligious practices of singing 'vhe most sacred tunes and hymns unsuitable places, and especially in eisteddfodar^ when the crowds became unruly. He (Mr. Jen- kins) heartily endorsed all that had been said. SAid wished it ro be impressed upsn the minds of tss,e young people present. Votee: of thanks were grsen to the organist (Mr. John Thomas. Pen- tytteh) and pianfest (Mrs. Griffiths, Gellywen) for their valuable services during the day. It was anuoianced that a committee had been held after the afternoon meeting, and that they had arranged that t'f,te festival should be held next year at Llan- trisant.; on the first Monday in September con- ductor, Mr. D. Jenkin*, Mus. Bac. Rev. 3, Morgan (Tonyrelail) closed the meeting with prayer. The chapel w&s crowded dIning the day, and the fes- tival proved a success in every way.

Major Jones, ex-American Consul. Cardiff, presided, and was accompanied to the platform by Messrs. Richard Clark, chairman of the district, New Tredegar Thomas Richards, miners' agent, Ebbw Vale D. Evans, solicitor, Brecon and others.-Major Jones, in the course of his open- ing remarks, touched upon the past history of Trade Unionism and Trade Guilds, and asked those present not to be daunted because they were branded as socialists.—Mr. Job Howe, Tredegar, then proposer :— That this meetieg of Monmouthshire miners views with satisfaction the continued growth and develop- ment of our organisation, and rejoices in the com- petent and salutary influence that it exercises in the settlement of disputes between the members and their employers, and woulcl urge upon all colliery workmen the importance of combining to protect their interests, and to secure the many industrial and social reforms so urgently needed. Mr. Richard Clark seconded the resolution, which was supported by Mr. Alfred Onions, dis- trict secretary, and carried unanimously. Mr. Thomas Richards moved a second resolution, calling upon Parliament to enact an eight hours working day from bank to bank, declaring that any measure dealing with the employers' liability of injuries to workmen, and containing either a contracting-out clause or the doctrine of common employment would be satisfactory to the workers of the county, asking for an amendment of the 39th general rule of the Miners' Act, and strongly condemning the payment of royalty rents and way- leaves to private owners of lands, believing this could be reduced and become the absolute pro- perty of the State.—Mr. James Johnson, Bryn- mawr, seconded the resolution, which was sup- ported by Mr. D. Evans, Brecon, and carried. The customary votes of thanks terminated the pro- ceeding. TREFOREST.
