PENARTH POLICE COURT. —♦- MONDAY.—Before Mr. LI. Wood and Mr. T. R. Thompson. "JACK THE RIPPER" UP TO DATE. Ellen Welsh, a lady from the Emerald Isle, applied for police protection against Oliver Cox, of whom she said she went about in bodily fear. Proseoutrix said she lived at Arcot-street, and on the 21st ult. she went to see defendant's wife, and after a little discussion defendant said he would do for her and be her Jack the Ripper." Defendant's wifEY also threw a bucket of water over her. Defendant denied using threatening language, and said that complainant was a nuisance to the neighbourhood. The case was dismissed. TOO MUCH WATER. Edward Flint, 43, Plymouth-road, Penarth, was charged at the instance of the Cardiff Corpora- tion with unlawfully using the Corporation water otherwise than domestic purposes. Mr. F. C. Lloyd prosecuted, and having briefly related for the circumstances, Thomas James Lewis, clerk in the employ of the Cardiff Water Works, deposed that defendant was entitled to use the water for domestic purposes only. Robert Knowles, plumber, in the employ of Mr. Alien, Cardiff, said he went to the defendant's house on the 19th ult.. and defendant told him he wanted to lay a service on to the garden. Witness told him that it would not be allowed, and de- fendant told him to do it and he would take the responsibility. The pipe was connected with the water-pipe, and at the end was a spray connected with the lead pipe by an india rubber tube. Witness went to the house the next day, and saw the spray in use for about a couple of hours. Defendant was fined 10s. and costs. IMPORTANT TO FARMERS — BREACH OF THE INFECTIOUS DISEASES (ANIMALS) ACT. Job White, of Cardiff, was charged at the in- stance of Police-constable Herbert Evans with a breach of the Infectious Diseases (Animals) Act, in not having reported an outbreak of sheep scab amongst his sheep. Police-constable Herbert Evans deposed that on Wednesday, the 26th April, he visited a field in Murch, St. Andrews, occupied by Mr. White. He noticed one of the sheep rub itself, and on ex- amination found the sheep was affected with sheep scap. Having had no report from Mr. White, witness reported the case. On further examina- tion he discovered that three other sheep were affected. After the summons was issued he re- ceived a letter from Mr. White, which he had sent to the Inspector. Defendant said he did not go to the fields for several days, as he lived at Cardiff, but when he did go on Wednesday he noticed the scab, and at once wrote to the constable to acquaint him of it. The day following he received the summons. The Bench considered the defendant's excuse not sufficient, and he was fined 20s. and costs. SIX MONTHS FOR "BORROWING" A WATCH. George Mitchell, a disreputable-looking fellow, was charged with stealing a silver watch and chain, value -26, the property of Frank Rolls, of Clive-terrace, Penarth. Frank Rolls, apprentice to a boilermaker, Cogan, said the prisoner lodged with.his mother. On the 15th July, 1892, defendant was living there. On the 17th defendant asked him for the loan of his watch to get up by in the morning He lent it to him on condition that it was returned on the 18th. On the next day prisoner decamped, having pledged the watch. The watch was worth d66. On the 19th— the day after prisoner left-prósecutor, in company with. Police-constable Evans, went to Harris's pawnshop, and they told him no watch had been pawned, but when prisoner was appre- hended, he said he had pawned it with Mr. Harries. Mr. Hymen Harris, pawnbroker, proved that prisoner pledged the watch with him for 25s. on the 11th July. Police-sergeant Samson having deposed to arresting prisoner as he was leaving Usk Gaol, Prisoner pleaded guilty, and the magistrates sentenced him to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. TOO LIBERAL WITH A POKER. Frank Rees was charged by John Skinner, hobbler. with assaulting him on the 23rd ult.— Prosecutor said that on the 23rd prisoner insulted him in his own house. He picked up the poker and tongs, and asked prosecutor which he would have. He tapped him on the jaw. Before striking him, defendant said,"Here comes Johnny Macguire, the bum." Prosecutor tried to make his escape, but defendant ran after him, punched him in the ribs with his fist, and threatened if he came back again he would kick him. He did kick him once. Dr. Charles Aitken said prosecutor was brought €arly in the morning to his house. He was covered with blood, and bleeding from a wound inside his lip. He put some stitches in, and tidied the man up. Police-constable Headon deposed that on the 21st prosecutor came to him and complained of having been beaten by his brother-in-law. He took him to Dr. Aitken, and afterwards proceeded to Skinner's house, where they found the poker on the centre of the floor, and blood all over the house, upstairs and down. When charged defendant denied striking prosecutor with the poker, but with his fist. Defendant said prosecutor came home drunk, and challenged him to fight. After giving him two or three blows, prosecutor ran away. The Bench fined prisoner 10s. and costs, or 10 days. DRUNK AND DISORDERLY. Thomas Case was fined 5s. for being drunk and disorderly the previous day at Penarth.

VOLUNTEER INTELLIGENCE, RETIREMENT OF COL. PAGE, 2ND G.A.Y. Colonel Page, of Penarth, who, after a service of 32 years, is retiring from the 2nd Glamorgan Artillery Volunteers, was entertained at dinner in the Drill-hall by his brother officers, Lieutenant- Colonel Fisher, who succeeds Colonel Page in the •command, presiding. There was a full niuster to do honour to the retiring colonel, whosdervices to the regiment, as well as his genial personal charac- teristics, are highly appreciated. Colonel Page is one of the oldest Volunteers in the country, having, prior to joining the artillery, been for two years connected with the light-horse and having, since attaining command, spared neither time nor effort to maintain the efficiency and soldierly spirit of the men under him. The gathering was made the occasion of presenting him with a handsome silver salver, in commemoration of his service, and in expression of the esteem in which he is held. THE PRESENTATION was made, on behalf of the officers generally, by Lieutenant-Colonel Fisher, who, in the course uf a short speech, dwelt upon the good work which Colonel Page had done for the artillery, and de- scribed the cordial relations that prevailed between the retiring commanding officer and those who had had the pleasure of serving under him.-Colonel Page suitably responded, taking opportunity to recognise the steadfast support and loyal co-opera- tion whi*h his brother officers had accorded him and he concluded by proposing the health of Captain and Adjutant Eyre, R.A., to whose efforts, he said, the high state of the corps was due. He added expression of his, hope that every success would attend the regiment in the future. THE SEVERN" DIVISION SUBMARINE MIXING ENGINEERS, ? commanded by Major A. Thornley, will encamp for 15 days at Cardiff, from August 5th onward j 196 of all ranks are expected. i ] <

VILLAGE LIFE IN SOUTH GLAMORGAN. Mr. Arthur Williams, M.P., has received the fol- lowing resolution. passed at a meeting of the St. Bride's Major Allotment Committee on the 21st instant, and, at the request of the committee, has forwarded it to H. H. Fowler, M.P., the President of the Local Government Board :— That the executive of the above-named com- mittee beg most respectfully to tender their best thanks to the Right Hon. President of the Local Government Board for introducing into Parlia- ment the beneficent measure for creating Parish and District Councils for the emancipation of the rural workers, who have for generations suffered under village tyranny and despotism by being deprived of having a voice in the adminis- tration of parish affairs, and a fair and just interest in the cultivation of the soil. They sincerely trust that e /ery effort will be made by the Liberal party, who have so generously sup- ported the introduction .of the Home Bill of the villagers, to pass the Bill in its entirety this session of Parliament for the amelioration of the working classes, and, if possible, stay the present migration of the sons of the soil to already con- gested centres of population. Previous to the meeting at which this resolu- tion was passed, several meetings of the allotment committee had been held at the National School- room. and the curate ia charge had told the mem- bers of the committee that they might use it at any time for a meeting if it was not otherwise engaged. The notice of the meeting on the 21st, therefore, mentioned that it would be held as before at the schoolroom. On the day appointed for the meeting, the following letter from the vicar was received by one of the members of the allotment committee :— Ci j_ T* *1 "T""r! n_J_3 St. Bride's Vicarage, Bridgend, April 21st, 1893. Dear Sir,—From a notice that appears in the shop window in this village, it seems to be the intention to hold a meeting in the school about allotments and parish councils. I am informed, whether correctly or not, I do not know, that you are responsible for the said notice. I beg to give you notice, in my own name and in that of the other managers, that you cannot have the use of this schoolroom for such a purpose. It is a Church voluntary school, on which the ratepayers have no claim whatever. The above- mentioned bill or notice has been conceived and issued in great ignorance. Otherwise it is unaccountable how it could be proposed and announced to hold a meeting without any leave, right, or authority. I beg to repeat that it is a Church voluntary pchool, and that there is no right to hold meet- ings in it without permission.—Yours truly, THos. JONES. It is refreshing to find that the Village Hamp- dens" of St. Bride's found some other place of meeting, and passed the thorough-going resolution we have given above in favour of the Bill, which will relieve them from this petty interference, and give them the right to the- use of the school which is supported by public money. They also passed a unanimous vote of censure condemning the action of the vicar in refusing without cause the use of the parish schoolroom." What a picture this letter affords of those blessings which an endowed and established parish priest bestows upon his parishioners !—South 71 ales Daily News, TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES DAILY NEWS. Sir,—My" attention has been called to an article in your issue of the 29th ult., on Village Home Rule." I hope you will allow this explanation of my position to appear in your next issue. Many months a-o. when the allotment question was first mooted in the parish, I was asked by Mr. Verity, the Southerndown postmaster, who, by the way, was the recipient of the vicar's letter if he might be allowed the use of the schoolroom for an allotment meeting. My answer was this, and not what appeared in your article :—" I am quite willing for you to have the schoolroom I don't think there need be any difficulty in your getting it." This consent on my part was for one meeting. I did not use the words at any time." I could not have used them without abusing my position as one of the school managers. This is the only time I have been asked for the schoolroom for an allotment meeting. I was not asked by any- one for it. except by Mr. Verity, on the occasion referred to above. I know nothing of the com- mittee. I have not even heard of them. I had some business at the Southerndown Post-, office on the 21st ult. Mr. Verity showed me the letter he had that day received from the vicar He wanted my opinion of it. I promptly told him that I quite approved of the step the vicar had taken. He, in return, told me that I had granted him the use of •• the schoolroom at any time when it was disengaged. I said that I had granted him the use of it on one occasion, because he had asked me to do so. I distinctly told him, in his daughter's hearing, that my consent for one occasion did not mean that the school was at his disposal when he wished, without being courteous enough to ask for it. If, as you say, several meetings of the allotment committee have been held in the schoolroom, they have had no consent from me to do so. I only say this that I may not appear to differ from the vicar on this point. The voluntary contributions of Church people towards the St. Bride's Major school amounts to over A60 per annum.-I am, &c., F. C. WILLIAMS, Curate of St. Bride's Major.

FOOTBALL. — « WELSH INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL MEDALS. The medals which the Welsh Rugby Football Union determined to present to the members of the Inter- national team have been forwarded to the players. They are of handsome design in gold and enamel. In the centre of the medal are the Prince of Wales's plumes in enamel; and round this, in an outer circle, are the words Welsh Football Urfóon" in blue. Bordering a further gold circle are four plain shields, bearing the emblems of the four countries, the leek, the shamrock, the thistle, and the rose, and at the top, above the Welsh leek, a re the words Tiiple Victory on a scrull, to which is attacbed the ring for the watch chain. On the back of each medal is engraved the name of the player to whom the medal is pre- sented. ASSOCIATION. SOUTH WALES LEAGUE FINAL CUP TIE. CARDIFF V. TREHAUEIS. The final encounter for the nossession of the South Wales Association Football League Challenge Cup came off on Saturday on the ground of the Cardiit Harlequins, Roath, in the presence of a good company of spectators. Ttie contesting teams were Cardiff and Treharris; the referee, Mr. Gooding, of Here- ford. Treharris, winning the toss, choose the town end, with a stiff wind and sun in their favour. The homesters forced matters spiritedly from the out- set, the ball beir"* repeatedly put in, but the smart- ness of the visitors' custodian neutralised each effort. Cardiff, however, maintained the attack, and about quarter of an hour after the kick-off drew first blood, from Debney, after a pretty combined dribble. The visitors, roused by this reverse, worked well into their opponents' territory, but were erratic in front. Up to this stage, Cardiff's game was an excellent exhibition oJ combined play, especially by the front line. They did not, however, prevent the other side breaking away; and more than once Treharris peppered the home goal right merrily, but failed to score. Even play succeeded with the homesters having a slight advantage, handicapped as they were by both sun and wind. Half-time came, no further point being made the score stanlin^: —Cardiff, 1 goal; Treharris, nil. After the customary breathing time play was re- sumed. Cardiff at once pressed, and soon forced a. corner, which, however, came to nothing. Assisted now by the wind, the home team were continually in front of goal, but the defence was stubborn, and they failed time after time, goal kick succeeding goal kick, only for the ball to be returned. At length Treharris broke away, and, after smart play in front, got the leather through and equalied, amid the. frantic cheers of their supporters. The visitors become more .formidable than they had yet proved themselves. repeatedly getting possession and racing upthefiell1 in the teeth of the breeze. After even play, Cardiff roused themselves, and came well away. Out of a sharp bully under the posts, the homesters added a second notch to their score, a third point being put on almost immediately afterwards, amid the delighted applause of the club's partisans. The homesters had now everything their own vay. A couple of corner kicks fell to them, the second of which M'Laren headed through in clever fashion, making the score: Cardiff, 4 goals; Treharris, 1 goat. The succeeding play was of an uneventful nature, the visitors making one or two dashes, but nothing resulted. Just before the whistle went, however, they managed to pull through; and at the call of time the score stood:- Final score Cardiff, 4 goals; Treharris, 2 goals. The teams were as fallows :—Cardiff: Goal, N. Samuels; backs, J. Barnes and Jestyn Williams; half-backs, G. Nay, H. Roberts, and F. Farthing forwards, J. Woodfield, W. B. Denby, Joe Woodfield, J. Sheldon, and R. McLaren. Treharris: Goal, H. M. Davies; backs, M. and J. Powells half-backss, Edwards, Powell, and Jarman; forwards, M. Lloyd, T. Erans, T. Thomas, W. H.. Morgan, and J. P. Samuel. As will be seen from the annexed results, Cardiff, by their brilliant and well-earned victory on Saturday last, occupy the enviable position of holders of the coveted South Wales League Associa- tion Challenge Cup for the season 1892-93. In addition to this, they have won the medals offered in the past season's competition. The club and its supporters certainly deserve great credit for the energetic manner in which they have worked for their present success. After the crushing defeat sustained at the hands of the Canadians (owing, I believe, chiefly to bad organisation), with a bad debt and total extinction staring them in the face, the members have managed, by dint of tremendous efforts, to rise, Phcenix-iike, te their present position. Of Associa- tion generally it will be very gratifying to all interested in the game to learn that the past season has been a great success. The proceeds of the matches have shown a steady increase, in the aggregate more than doubling those of last semon's marches. Then, again, Association clubs are springing up on all sides, and all imbued with the spirit of entering the cup competition. Next season's prospects are even brighter than those of previous years. The Welsh Association are perfectly willing to bring a North Welsh representative team down, and a North v. South Wales match may, there- fore, be looked forward to as a certainty, the final arrangements only requiring settlement at the next league meeting. The first of these matches will, if possible, be played in Cardiff, and if the Cardiff Arms Park can be obtained for the purpose, the match will be fully appreciated and patronised. County matches with Hereford and Gloucester are equally as certain, and some of the league clubs are in correspondence with some of the best northern teims with a view to arranging fixtures. Taken altogether, the league's fix- ture card for next season will be an interesting one. CHALLENGE CUP COMPETITION. Final results:— Goals Play'd. Won. Dr'n. Lost. P'nts.

FIRE AT PONTYPRIDD. About three o'clock on Tuesday morning a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. W. V. Rees, iron- monger, High-street, the mantelpiece in the sitting-room having been ignited from a fire that had been in the grate. The brigade, commanded by Captain W. Jones, arrived on the tcene within a- few minutes of the alarm being given, but found that the fire had been extinguished by buckets. The damage done is not great. Superin- tendent Jones and several constables also rendered valuable assistance..

PORTHCAWL TO THE FRONT, Most of the cheap excursion tickets issued, by the Great Western Railway Company during the summer imonths may be obtained on any date between now and the 31st of October.
