THE WORLD'S GOSSIP. It is not generally known that both Queen Victoria and the German Emperor have a baby cousin, who is the son of a gamekeeper, and yet that is the fact, and this is how it comes about. About twelve months ago Princess Elizabeth of Hohenlohe was. for some reason or other, con- strained to unite herself in the bonds of holy matrimony with a handsome young gamekeeper, by name Charles Miiller. Now. Princess Elizabeth is the daughter of the Duke of Rabitor, President of the Prussian House of Lords, a financier of not unsullied fame, and cousin of his Mightiness the Kaiser. It goes without saying that the husband of the Princess Miiller received a very handsome solatium to reconcile him to the obscurity in which his high connections are naturally so very anxious that he should remain. Camberwell Workhouse boasts a Royal illegiti- mate, who rejoices in the name of Guelph, and claims descent from one George—a king of Eng- land, whose amours probably left a few more Royal paupers to his grateful country. I wonder if it has ever occurred to any member of the reigning family to institute inquiries as to the number and whereabouts or •• missing Royal relatives, who are not in receipt of pensions to keep them without the workhouse gates. The late Duke of Sutherland bore an excellent reputation as a landlord, and spent a very large amount of money .in trying to bring into cultiva- tion a great extent of the waste land of his native country. He was born in 1828, and succeeded to the title in 18;31. He had been a director of the Highland Railway Company from its earliest days. The short line which runs from Golspie to Helms- dale, a distauce of seventeen miles, was built entirely at his Grace's expense, and is called The Duke's Railway." The Duke. who all through his life took the greatest interest in railway matters, was very fond of riding on the engine when opportunity offered. An admiring "navvy"' was once heard to exclaim. That's what I call some- thing like a Duke. there he is. driving his own engine on his own railroad, and burning his own blessed coals When Garibaldi came to London in 1864 it was as the guest of the Duke of Suther- land. The Duke met the Italian hero at Xine Elms, and so dense was the crowd that the carriage took nearly four hours to make its way to Stafford House. When Garibaldi left England some three weeks later he was conveyed to Caprera in the Duke's yacht, accompanied by his noble host, and a few members of his family. Ten years ago, in the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone, the Duchess of Sutherland unveiled a marble medallion portrait of Garibaldi at Stafford House. Mr. Gladstone afterwards delivered an address, in which he referred to the Italian patriot's carcer and character. 'Hie Duchess of Bedford will. with her sister, Lady Henry Somerset, lecture to the parsons, their wives, sisters, and aunts on the subject so dear to both noble dames—the evils of drinking-at the Church Congress to be held at Folkestone in October.. Mention of the Bedford Duchess calls to my mind: one of the many kindnesses she is always anxious to perform. For the last six months, at her own cost, this model Chatelaine has sent a a number of her poorer sisters—those who are sweated at the East End of London especially— into the fair country around her Ducal master's seat,.where the lassies have been for a fortnight liberally provided with abundant food and fresh air. Even the street Arabs have not been for- gotten, for a whole pnx.v of these denizens of Old Drurv's foetid courts and alleys come and go each fortnight with regularity. I commend the good Duchess's example to her sisters in society, and only wish, there were many more like her. Three years ago there were three English Car- dinals—Newman, Manning, and Howard. To-day there is not one. The late Cardinal Howard had been in a poor condition, physically and mentally, for some years. He failed to remember his oldest friends, and sometimes would not take meals for days together. For years past it would have been difficult to recognise in the pinched and emaciated frame of the Cardinal the gay young Life Guards- man. who> was chosen for his good looks and fine physique to lead the procession at the Duke of Wellington's funeral. Tfoe following particulars regarding Lord Rose- bevy's farm, at Dalmeny, which lies in close proxi- mity to the Forth Bridge, are at the present time of especial interest. On the home farm, which ex- tends to about 1,400 acres, excellent cottages, to which substantial gardens are attached, have been provided for the married ploughmen, and a com- fortable bothy has been erected for the unmarried men. It comprises a large dining-room fitted up with cooking stove and hot and cold water, and for every occupant a separate bedroom is provided. Lavatory accommodation of the most approved description is also furnished, and a woman servant is deputed to keep the place tidy and have the kettle boiling for the men when they return from the "yoke." Lord Rosebory provides his plough- men with the daily and all the leading agricultural papers. The wages for good and efficient men on the Dalmeny Farm are £ 1 per week. When a ploughman or other labourer has spent the best part of his life in service at Dalmeny, and becomes unfit for the hard and steady work of driving a pair of horses, an easier kind of work is found for him, and he is kept on at a fair wage, nominally as a jobber, but practically as a pensioner. Even the widows of old and faithful servants are most kindly treated, and some comfortable billet is always found for anyone who has a just claim on his lord- ship's consideration. A work is promised shortly by Messrs. Lamley and Co., of Exhibition-road, in which the author is said to wield a satiric lash of considerable length and weight. It is written by one well-known in society and literature, who will for the present maintain a strict hwognit'K "The Silver Domino, or, Side Whispers, Social and Literary," is the suggestive title. It will contain sketches of Lord Salisbury, Mr. Gladstone, Lord Tennyson, Mr. Swinburne, Mr, Labouchere, and other eminent personages. The jewels worn by Mrs. Langtry in the different acts of The Queen of Manon" are altogether worth about £ 60,000 and £ 70,000. The diamond and ruby necklace worn in the third act actually cost £9:000. Behind the scenes may be seen a mysterious individual—neither stage carpenter, dresser, nor actor-wandering about without any apparent business. He is a detective specially selected on account of his acquaintance with the ways and faces of expert jewellery thieves.

FOOTBALL. [NOTES BY FREE KICK."] Reports for this column must be received not later than Wednesday afternoon to appear in the current week's issue. Secretaries of local clubs wishing to have their list of fixtures inserted under the Football head- ing are requested to forward me one of their fixture cards. The members of the Cadoxton District Club showed what they were made of in the trial match held on the Local Board Recreation Ground on Saturday afternoon. The sides were respectively captained by the skipper and his viee. and from the style of play shown, the former will not find it; a hard trial to pick a good representative team to meet Whitchureh next Saturday. The weakness suffered by the club last year through the want of a good full-back will not this season be experienced, judging from W. Powell's capital playing in this position. His picking up and quick returns proved that he will make a, most efficient and capital addition to the club. The dropped goal of his from the division line was an eye opener. At three-quarter T. Williams played a good game, whilst Hopkins, R. Lewis, and Davies were to the fore, and will improve as time goes on. The latter can use his feet well, and brought off some capital runs. It is rumoured that this was his first appearance upon the fodball field. but after di- gesting the new rules will turn out a fine man on the wing. Chamberlain on the will.- was a little too nervous. Morgan and Lane out-rivalled their opponents at half, although Paulett played a sterling game for a. .1 youngster. Of the forwards Wadrup, Tobin. Ekers, and Waters tickled my fancy, whilst Hopkins and Prothcroe did yeaman service for their respective sides, The committee on Tuesday picked out a good. team to meet Whitchurch to-morrow (Saturday). The names of those composing the team will be found below. It is satisfactory to learn that the members of the now defunct Star Football Club has thought it a wise plan to amalgamate with the Cadoxton District Club. The latter is now enabled to form a good second team. The following team has been chosen, to do justice for the Cadoxton District Football Club against those representing Whitchurch Back, W.Powell: three-quarters, M. Hopkins. T. Wil- liams, R. Lewis, F. Thomas half-backs, T. Morgan (captain) and C. Lane forwards, J. Wadrup, J: Tobin, Ekers. Wakeham, Protheroe, W. Walters, T. Hopkins, and E. Howell. The above are requested to assemble at the Station at 2.45 p.m. sharp. The following have been selected for the. Cadox- ton Seconds to engage in the tussle with the Dynas Powis Seconds :—Back, J. E/ans three-quarters, G. Ridler, J. A. Phillips. J. Venning, and T. Chamber- lain half-backs, P. Ryan, and A. John forwards, P. Trigg, W. Kathrens, S. Hussey, J. White, E. Howell, D. James. W. Simpson, and H. Williams. It is requested that all playing members should don the club's jersey, and not appear on the ground in all the colours of Joseph's coat." The Seasiders on Saturday scored a decisive victory over the- Cardiff 'Quins by four points to, nil. Well done,. Penarth You have commenced your season well, and may it end in a similar fashion. The 'Quins are making the best of their defeat by concocting such a. yarn as to the poor team they had on the field. This is nothing to do with it; for if this excuse is to be taken into considera- tion. how about the homesters when they were minus two of their best men on the wing in Joe í Williams and the sprinter—Kirby ? If the 'Quins could not put on. a bettor team it was tbeir fault. Penarth chose to play the best team that could be pat before them, by the visitors; and not to lament over the non-appearance of their opponents best team. Footballers, and those interested in the grand national game, will notice under the new rules adopted at the Angel Hotel, Cardiff, en Saturday night last by the Welsh Union, that a try will henceforth equal three points, and not two- as heretofore. Also that the referee is em- powered to grant a penalty kick to the players* opposing team who prevents an opponent getting up," or wilfully puts the ball unfairly into a scrummage." Captains will also note that after the registering of a try it is the duty of the defending side to see that the ball is taken out straight for the place kick. The ball is to be considered dead if a player when running with the ball should touch the referee." The Llantwit-?vl"aj or football team played their first match this season on Saturday last. on their own ground. Their opponents were the Porth- cawl team. A very evenly and pleasantly con- tested game resulted in a win for the home team by three points, 1 goal 2 tries to 3 tries. The home team were handicapped by losing the services of their captain, A. R. Price, who- was indisposed. This made it necessary to take Jenkins from the forwards to place him on the wing, where he played a hard game, but want of ex- perience in the third line made itself felt. Forward the visitors held a decided lead, being much heavier in the scrum and rather more clever with their feet. At half they were fairly matched. George, the new half-back for Llantwit. showing promise of developing into a good man. Howells, on the left wing, was as good as yore, but was too well looked cfter to become very dangerous. Goulden saved well, while Whapham covered himself with glory. One of his tries was a regular eye-opener. Stealing a pass in his own 25, he worked his way through a host of his opponents* and fairly ran away from them. For the visitors Cox was a host in himself, while the captain, Mr. Vivian, played a grand game. but it would be invidious to select names for prefe- rence in the visiting team, where all worked so hard for victory. Notwithstanding the keen manner in which the game was fought, no un- pleasant incident took place, which proves that even football can be contested in a gentlemanly way. BARRY 2XD V. COGAX 2XD. Played on the Buttrill's Ground, near Barry, on Saturday, the draw ending in favour of Cogan by 3 minors to 2 minors. The game was evenly con- tested throughout. COGA X V. HAnRY, Played at Cogan. and resulted as follows :— Cogan, 1 disputed try, 1 minor Barry. 1 disputed try. Mr. F. John, ex-secretarv of the Barry Club, acted as referee. For Cogan D. Morgan got over and grounded the ball, but the above gentleman ordered a scrummage five yards out. The try which Barry claimed was scored by kicking the ball on to the top of a hedge behind the goal, the referee being of the opinion that a try would have been got if a Cogan man had not kicked out of bounds. As it was, tjie ball was not touched by a Barry man; at all. Cogan."therefore, claimed the match as a win by 1 goal, 1 minor, to 1 minor. FIXTURES FOR THE EXSTTIXG WEEK.
