For the first time this season these two armies en-a-ed on the former's battle-field on Saturday last Whitchurch came down with the confident hope of returning victorious, and judging from what they had seen of Barry material in the shape of the District team, tkey had a perfect right to think that way but unfortunately for them two of their best men were unable t. accompany them and that in a great measure added to the chances of the defeat which they ex- perienced. On the otker har-d, the Barryites put on their best men, bent upon getting the best, of the fight for the sake «f proving their superiority to their less fortunate District brethren and taking these things into consideration it is to the credit of Whitchurch that they pulled through so well. The tackling of the homesters was tip-top and the playing of young Davies as half-back was a. welcome surprise to those who did not approve of putting a second man in a first game. The following were the players Barry: Back C. Giggs three-quarter-backs, Medcrott (capt.), Rees 'Jones and Saunders half-backs, J. Davies and T Davies •' forwards, Williams, Phillips, Lester, Porter, John Porter, W. Davies, A. Williams and Attwell. Whitchurch: Back, F. Taylor three- quarter-backs, Howelle, Glendenmng. (capt.) Thomas, and Lewis half-baeks, Morris and Evans; forwards, Smith, Thomas, Hopkins, Rowlands, Thomas, Hale; Garland, and H. Hale. Tho heeling out of the homesters was really very good, and shows a marked improvement, which is very much to their credit. In this respect they were well matched by the visitors, who on every occasion did all in their power to get the bah into tiie hands of their half-backs. This is aiways a good thing to do, because, however strong the forwards may be, for every step to be gained by push a three-quarter re- ceiving from the half, could put in half the field. Whitchurch kicked off, and the ball not being re- turned play settled down in the Barry 25, but was soon changed by a brilliant rush from the home for- wards. From a scrum, Glondenmg received a pass, and put in a good run, but was unable to score. For some time after this the p!ay was hard and fast, and fortune seemed undecided where to bestow tavour, when voung Davies, for the iiomes^eis, managed to get hold of the ball, and passed to his chief, v.ho was at once attacked by a visitor, and compelled to pass to J. Rees who feinted a pasa to his left-hand man, and after'a dodgy run scored behind the posts, which he afterwards converted amid great checmg. Play settled in tho half-way, and neither party seemed able to shift it, when after a series of hard scrams lemon was called. Score Barry, 1 goal; Whitchurch nil. Business, re-commenced, \Vhitchurch appealed deter- mined to retrieve, but it was no go. The foreigners at this point showed some really smart play, both in pass- ing and heeling; but they were completely matched in every point by the natives. Owing to a case of off- side the visitors had a free kick, and the result was a minor in their favour. From the drop-out the ball was returned to the home 25, and a scrum formed, and another minor conceded to the visitors. After a few minutes hard play, during which the home- sters were very closely pressed, the visitors managed t) score another minor but not once were they allowed to drop on tha bail over the goal line. The drop- out was well-followed up, and the game forced into the visitors' territory, and in a short time Barry put in a minor. Up to the call of time nothing else worth mentioning was done, and the final BCllre stood Barry, 1 goal, 1 minor; Whitchurch. 3 minors. I BAlmy DISTRICT V. COGAX. On Saturday the Cadoxton District and Cogan teams -contested honours far the first time this season on the latter's ground, and the result was an ignominious defeat for the visitors. If the members of the District Club do not make a. much better show in their next contest, let them take my advice, and change their name to anything but what it is now, as they certainly have not up to the present, shown themselves worthy to re- present any district. The result of the Whitchurch match was bad, but the Cegan—Ugh However, let us see what they can do Saturday week with the Pen- arth A. If thev don't make a better show on that occasion, for the credit of the district their title must be altered. Morae played a clinking game at back but a full back is only a. defence—not a man who has a chance of scoring; and on Saturday he had more than plenty to do to defend his position. But he did his part of the work well; and if the other members of his team played their parts in half as good style, Cogan would have had a different grin on them. Of the three-quarters, Jack Evans was the best, and played a smart game. The others seemed to have lost heart after the first try was scored by their opponents. Young Lewis played well as half-back instead of Morgan, who was decidedly off colour and could not do much, which was a serious loss to his side and Lane also played a. decent game, but nothing much to be talked about. The forwards were nowhere, and played a disgrace- ful game. They stood no chance whatever with their opponents. Of course they were a man short, but the other side took out a man to play half, and then the visitors were just as badly oil. Well, if the whole bag of tricks, backs and forwards, do not not make a decided improvement by next Saturday, let them give up match playing, and play nowhere but amongst themselves. On two oeoasions the visitors could have scored if they had only followed up their chief when he got clear away, but was grassed because the home- sters had better runners among them. When Morgan got away he ought to have been supported by his men so that he could pass but so badly did the visitors attend to their work that these two excellent chances availed them nothing. On the other two occas- ions that Morgan has made a good run he has been supported by but even he was missing on Saturday, and the result was what might be expected. If I wore captain of such men I would give it up dis- gusted and join another club, for it is much more -satisfactory to be a follower of the worthy than the leader of the unworthy. BARRY 2ND V. DYNAS POWIS. The Barry 2nd team went up to Dinas Powis on Saturday to play the representatives of that famous and historical locality. The sequel was rather lively in fact, almost a gladiator kind of a game It seems the visitors scored a try. which the homesters' patriotic referee thought it his duty to disallow. This annoyed the foreigners, who said they ought to get it. The natives stoutly denied that thpy had any right to the try. After that both sides closed their books of eti- quette, and commenced addressing each other in nicely-chosen terms, suitable to the occasion. This sort of thing is rather unusual in these days of polite and cultured football. The Platonic etiquette of the football field allows one player to break any one of the limbs of an opponent to prevent him scoring; but if the injured man becomes annoyed and expresses himself dissatisfied with that sort of business, his side is considered disqualified, and they have no further chance in the game I ST. HELEN'S 2ND v. BARRY STARS. Playeel on the former's ground on Saturday last. and after a very hard and fast game, the Saints came off victorions by 1 try to a minor. Radcliffe, for the Saints received the ball from the serum, and managed to plant it behind tho posts, but the attempt to convert failed. BARRY v. COWBRIDGE.—To be played at Cow- bridge.

REVIEWS OF PUBLICATIONS.
REVIEWS OF PUBLICATIONS. "J" .J" 'f,> "'f' "J'f"n. HISTORY OF THE CARDIFF FESTIVAL.—(By W. H. Sonley Johnstone).—The are some books which should never have been written, and this is one of them. The author, it is true, had no need to apologise for the absence of graceful style and vigorous narrative for there is in the book plentiful evidence of literary power. But the spirit in which the book has been. written is very painful to a reader who cares not for newspaper squabbles. Three oft-recurring' adjectives will indicate the main object of the book, they are '•great,1' "generous," ahd "discreditable." The word great" is applied to the Cardiff Musical Festival the support of the South Wales Daily News to the festival was "generous"; the tactics of the Western Mull were "discreditable." The reader, after closing the book, is at no loss to understand the reasons that induced the Western Mail to oppose the festival. Of the small portion of the book which deals with the Festival we can only speak with praise. Mr. Johnstone is the happy possessor of a polished and vigorous style, and even when the reader least agrees with the spirit in which the history is narrated, his interest is never allowed to flag. The reader is, perforce, compelled to read the volume to the finish, when once he has taken it up but he lays it down with a sigh of relief.— [Daniel Owen and Co., Cardiff.] CYJlnm'n. PLANT (lD).-This little children's magazine maintains its high standard, and should be read by every Welsh child. It is the best and most profusely illustrated Welsh magazine for children.—FD. W. Davies and Co., Caernarvon.] CYMRU (6D.).-It is the misfortune of a good periodical like Cymru. that each number is judged by a high standard. Compared, therefore, with some of the past numbers, the October number, which is just to hand, is rather dull and uninterest- ing. The editor still continues to supply the bulk of the articles, and the magazine, therefore, reflects the editor's mood. To. judge from the quality of the articles this month, Mr. Edwards seems to have been overworking himself. There is an impress of weariness on every page, though there are many passages full of truth and beauty. The editor contributes another chapter to the History of Wales, an account of the Rhyl Eisteddfod, a report of Lord Bute's address at Rhyl, an addition to his History of the French Reformation, and a serial novel. Other articles are translations of Giraldus Cambrensis' Itinerary through Wales in 1188, and Ordericus Vitalis' biography of Robert of Rhudd- lan, a sketch of the late Dr. John Thomas, by the Rev. H. M. Hughes, and a continuation of the tale, Y Fun o Eithinfynvdd," by Mrs. Oliver Jones.—: —[Caernarvon D. W. Davies and Co.] Y GKNIXEN (IS.) — It is surprising how Eifionydd can succeed in getting such excellent articles for his national quarterly. Though the present number is not perhaps quite as good as some of its predecessors, its contents are very varied and interesting. Archdeacon Howells rambles pleasantly about Welsh Patriotism"; His Honour Judge Gwilym Williams speaks strongly in favour of Welsh teaching Professor Anwyl contributes and interesting paper on Penillion Telvn y Cymry the Rev. D. Adams writes a thoughtful article on the Literary Con- servatism of the Welsh"; Watcin Wyn and Elfred Lewis return to the well-known subject of the Eis- teddfod the Rev. Charles Davies discusses whether Welsh preaching has deteriorated or not Dyn o'r Wlad" deals with the Rhyl Eisteddfod, and tries to annihilate the Lawatwyr," as he calls the Dafydd ap Gwilym Society and Professor D. M. Lewis deals with the people and the land in Wales." These are but a few of the many excellent articles that appear in the October number of the Genincn.—[Caernarvon W. Gwenlyn Evans.]
LLANTWIT-MAJOR NOTES.
LLANTWIT-MAJOR NOTES. rBY PELAGIUS.] The amount of the collection for the Tondu fund at the harvest thanksgiving service at the Parish Church—six guineas—was not worthy of the congregation, nor of the object. That our wealthy Church people could not collect more than Y,6 Gs. when aided by hundreds of Nonconformists (who had already subscribed at their own places of worship) does not speak very highly of the generosity of our Church friends. They should remember the words of the text from which Mr. Jones preached such an excellent sermon. God is not mocked." No, ho will measure our gifts not by what we give, but what we have left behind. About a week ago we witnessed a sight which we are glad to say is not a common sight at Llantwit. An old inhabitant, and one who always led a blameless life, was within the last few years of her life forced (and we use the word advisedly) to take the cold shelter of the Bridgend Workhouse. Death releasing her from uncon- genial surroundings her body was brought to the town to be buried, when, sad to relate, there was not sufficiet help to carry her corpse intoithe grave- yard until the undertaker went to get assistance. If the body had been but the remains of one in affluent circumstances the chapel would be crowded. Alas for the rariety of Christian charity.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT AT CARDIFF.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT AT CARDIFF. On Thursday Messrs. Howells and Company's magnificent now premises were opened, and they are undoubtedly one of the finest drapery establish- ments in the Principality. A little over 25 years ago. Mr. Howell started a small drapery shop under the Stuart-hall, when five assistants sufficed to cope with the trade done, and the very great success which has attended his efforts far above that of his contemporaries plainly shows that the public must have recognised the benefits accruing to them by trading with a firm which supplied good quality goods at a low and reasonable price. Mr. Howells' success has been phenomenal, but on a scrutiny it will be seen that he has done nothing extraordinary to gain that success beyond gaining the confidence of his cumstomcrs by selling them wares of good quality at reasonable rates. At the present rate of progress, Messrs. Howell's business bids fair, in a few years' time, to become a second Lewis', not of Liverpool and Manchester, but of Cardiff. A visitor to Messrs. Howella will readily perceive the truth of the above statement, as he walks through the vast premiss, in which over 200 hands are engaged, exclusive of the employes in the cabinet and furniture factory. I Most of these are men but, of course, lady assis- tants take control in the departments specially sacred to ladies' wants and in the lighter drapery departments. Most of the staff reside in the house, over the business premises, and for their wants the firm provide all that is needed in the way of board.

GRAND OPENING OF ONE OF THE Largest Drapery Establishments IN ENGLAND AND WALES. HO WELL A. N D COMPANY Respectfully beg to announce that after more than Three Years of hard work in Planning'. Pc-building, and Re-decorating the whole of their Premises in St. Mary-street, Trinity-street, and Wharton-street, they are at last complete, and ARE NOW OPENED. g P E C I A L NOT ICE. #» In order to commemorate this great event. H. and CO. have decided to Sell many Important Parcels of New Goods at Sale Prices. It may be interesting to H. and Co.'s numerous friends and customers to know that abcut the same date in the year 1865 they opened one of the small shops under the Stuart-hall, with only five assistants. After eighteen months' successful trading (on sound principles, to which they still strictly adhere) they were compelled to look out for larger and more commodious premises, and in August, 18G7, thoy removed to 13, St. Mary-street. Many persons who did not believe trade could be carried from the Hayes considered this change a great error in judgment, but H. and Co., having implicit faith in the large and ever-increasing population of Cardiff and district, went onward?, adding house after house until their present extensive Warehouses were constructed. Most of H. and Co.'s valuable leases were arranged for nearly twenty years ago. at less than half the rents paid for such properties now. It will, therefore, be easily .understood why they are in a position to sell at such very small profits. H. and Co. have never taken to themselves the credit of building up such a. trade, but rather consider their success due to the keen judgment displayed by the public generally as to the real value given. wi=^H. and Co. are Wholesale and Retail Trader?, supplying the public with gaods at wholesale prices: and often at less than those of Manufacturers. They have not introduced the system of publishing price list3 at an extravagant cost of five or six thousand pounds a year, as some would-be Manufacturers do, but prefer to give this advantage to their Customers. j-yiESS I^EPAIITMENT Is removed to its former position. The room has been greatly improved with light and ventilation, and made over sixty feet longer. The stock is new and one of the laigest and best assorted m tiie country, containing goods suitable to all classes. Many most desirable Lots may be Sold at H. and Co.'s Sale Prices. jpURNISHIXG DRAPERY JQEPARTMENT Now transferred from Wharton-street to Trinity-street. The Stock is thoroughly well assorted with New Goods, and some of the Cheapest Lines ever otfered to the public. Several Parcels bought direct from Manufacturers for cash. A Manufacturer's Stock of Table Linen amounting to £695 10s. Od., bought at a discount of 40 per cent. off regular prices. Down Quilts, Sheetings. Chenille and Tapestry Curtains at Sale Prices. rpHE -]yjANCHESTER jQEPARTMENT Is next to the Furnishing Drapery this arrangement must give H. and Co.'s Customers great satis- faction, as the goods are of a similar kind. The room for the Manchester Goods will be double the length of the old room, consequently the Stock will be much larger. Several very Cheap Lines have been secured for the opening day. JJOSIERY AND RENTS' J^ERCERY JQEPARTMENTS Now Removed to 13 and 14. St. Mary-street, its old position, but the space allotted it will be trebled. This Department has been specially looked after. A great many important lines having been bought for cash will now ij0 offered to the public at Sale Prices. ¡ -_u -_u_- pURS AND jjMBEELLAS. In this Department many very important lots will be sold.
