FOOTBALL NOTES. Denbigh v. Prestatyn. North Wales Junior Cup (1st Round). Played at Denbigh on Saturday last. Prestatyn were, with the exception of G. Glass, at full strength, whilst the newly- formed Denbigh club had their full team on the field. The homesters kicked off against the wind and at once made for the visitors' goal, but T. W. Ellis cleared. The Prestatyn forwards got away, D. W. Jones scoring five minutes from the start. Stung by this early reverse the Denbighites attacked, and but for their excitement must have scored, Glass, Williams, and Ellis each having to kick clear from right on the goal line. The game became fast, and both cus- todians had great difficulty in keeping their charges in tact. After about 40 minutes' play, a Denbigh man sent in a long shot which J. T. Williams, in attempting to clear, turned out of Glass' reach into the corner of the net, thus making the scores equal. Both teams made stren- uous efforts to gain a lead, but the interval arrived with the score one all. The second half opened even faster than the first, and excitement ran high when Denbigh were awarded a free kick close in, but Glass cleared, and Holbrook made a grand attempt to get through, Price clearing. H. Davies returned nicely into goal, Jack Jones rushing up planted the ball in the net. With the lead once more in their favour, the visitors attacked, and from a grand centre by Stone, D. Hughes almost scored, whilst a few minutes later R. Hughes sent in a terrific shot which struck the upright. Denbigh now. got away, and Glass was completely held up," but the homesters infringed the goalkeeper's rights, and from the free kick the visitois again attacked. E. Mostyn served his forwards well, and David Hughes sent in a grand shot which Price saved on the line. The visitors appealed for a goal, but Referee Jones would not allow one. After several attempts Denbigh were suc- cessful in scoring, Jones beating Glass with a grand drive. The excitement of the home spectators now knew no bounds, and once again the visitors' goal was in danger. But towards the close Prestatyn simply bombarded the home goal, and had hard lines in not scoring, the final whistle sounding with the result of Denbigh 2 goals, Prestatyn 2, so that the game will have to be fought over again at Prestatyn. The game was well contested throughout and a draw is a fitting result, although both sets of forwards missed many chances of scoring. Denbigh have a really good team, and what they lack in experience they more than make up in dash. With a little more practice and experience they will be a force to reckon with. The Prestatyn team was good to a man, although the forwards were inclined to leave too much to their half-backs. Glass in goal made some good saves. Ellis played well throughout, whilst J. T. Williams kicked with great vigour, and with a few more games will greatly strengthen the Prestatyn defence. Mostyn, J. Jones, and favies made a grand intermediate line, feeding their forwards well, and at the same time were always there to assist their backs. The forwards were geod, although th^re ip pleatjVd room for improve- ment. III tiosiii,,illriessot' the ground told on them. Holbrook made some good rushes but must play more with his partners. D. W. Jones and D. Hughes played well throughout, whilst Stone and It. Hughes were greatly handicapped by the smallness of the ground. In the re-play I think Prestatyn will win, and the game should be well worth watching, for the Denbigh team played a hard game. Rough play was conspicuous by its absence. Mr Jones of Holywell, the referee, gave satis- faction to both sides, and the way he handled the game was worthy of a John Lewis. The replay will take placa at Prestatyn on Saturday, October 21st, when it is to be hoped a good crowd will turn up to welcome the players for the first time this season. The Welsh Association have decided that the Cup for the Boxing Day Competition must be called The Prestatyn Football Club Challenge Cup and not The Aiston Chal- lenge Cup." Who will be the first to give a medal for this, the first Football Competition ever held at Prestatyn ? Full partic il to cost from the secretary. A Rhyl paper stated that the Rhyl Combi- nation were short of four of their regular players against Prestatyn's full strength. Who were they ? Ogilvy, Whitelock, and D. Owen, are the players I missed, whilst from the Prestatyn team, J. T. Williams, J. W. Jones, and Holbrook were absent, so that Rhyl had as full a team as Preatatyn. Printed and Published by J. T.

Steak and Kidney Padding. L Make a suet crust of lib. flour, 6oz. suet, and haif-teaspoonful of salt. Grease a pudding basin and line with the crust, then fill up with stewing steak and beef kidney cut up small. Cover with a lid of the paste and a floured cloth and boil for 8 to 4 hours.

Haricot Mutton. Take 2 to 8 lbs of neck of mutton, cut into chops, and put into the stewpan, just cover- ing with hot (but not boiling) water. Add pepper and salt to taste, a teaspoonful of sauce and a carrot, turnip, and onion cut into dice. If liked, 2 cloves make a valuable addition to the flavour. Stew all together for about 8 hours, then put into a bowl until the next day when all the fat will have caked on the top and can be taken off before being re-heated.

Genoese Sandwiches Two ounces butter, 3oz. sugar, lIb. flour, teaspoonful of baking powder and two eggs. Beat the butter and sugar together to a cream, add one of the eggs; beat for another five minutes, then add the second egg. Now add a little flavouring (vanilla, almond, or lemon) and then lightly dredge in the flour and baking powder. Mix all these ingredients thoroughly, but do not beat them. Put the mixture into a baking-tin and bake for twenty minutes. When done, take out and allow it to cool, then cut in half and spread with raspberry jam, and ice with water iceing. When this has thoroughly set, cut into finger or other shapes and decorate with glazed cherries.

Apple Tart. Line the edges of a pie dish with short paste (10 oz. lard to lib. flour) peel, core, and slice -i large sized apples, put into the dish with l-lb sugar and 2 cloves. Cover 4 with pasts, notch the edges with a knife. brush over with beaten egg, and bake in a sharp oven for half-an-hour.

Water Iceing. To lib. of sifted iceing sugar add just suffi- cient water to make it into a thin paste. If required coloured add a few drops of cochineal or surae grated chocolate.

Household Hints. If anything catches fire while cooking, throw Bali apon it at once to prevent a disagreeable smell. Fruit stains oa linen can be taken out if powdered starch be applied at once. This should be allowed to remain for several hours, Corks that are too large for bottles. Soak them in boiling water, when they become soft and easy to put into battles. j Lightly wash plants onee a week withf milk and water (or soap and water), using a soft sponge, and the effectj is wonderful. To keep plants green water them occasion- ally with cold tea, or a quart of water to which has been added a teaspoonful of ammonia. To prevent green vegetables from smelling strong when boiling, put a dry crust of btead in the water. Common salt, moistened with turpentine, is an excellent thing for: cleaning enamel baths. Eggs put in a saucepan of cold water, and allowed to boil 2 minutes after commencing to boil, are much easier to digest than when placed in boiling water and boiled furiously for 3 or 4 minutes. If soot falls on the carpet, throw dry salt on and sweep off together, when it will not leave marks.

I A DUKE'S QUIET WEDDING. The interesting circumstances under which the Duke of Devonshire became married to Louise, the Dowager Dacltess of Manchester, on August 16th, 1892, are pleasingly recorded in Mr. Henry Leach's "Personal and Political Biography of the former. The Duke and his bride had resolved on a quiet wedding, and the Duke made his arrangements accordingly: In person he proceeded to Doctor's Commons, ami obtained a special licence for the marriage, Friends and relatives were not apprised in any way of the forthcoming event. Only a fortnight before Mr. Victor Cavendish (his nephew and heir-pre- suniptive) had himself been married to Lord Lansdowne's daughter, and tho silent Duke who attended the wedding said nothing about the other ceremony which was in his mind just then, and which had the effect of increasing Mr. Victor's prospects of succession to tha degree of certainty. The Queen, tha Prince of Wales, and Lord Salisbury were among the very few who were told of tHe approaching event, and each sent a a handsome present. Save for the bride and bride- groom, the vicar, and the minimum number of attendants, the church was deserted.

SOME NAVAL ANECDOTES. In The Navy as I Have known It" Admiral Fremantle shewed that entrance into the Navy was a good deal easier in 1849 than it is now. He was, as a matter of fact, examined by the sailing-master of the Black Eagle, who gave him a few lines of dictation, and set him to solve the problem, "If a yard of cloth costs Is. 4d., how much will three yards cost ? He tells a good story of two frigates fitting out at Plymouth, which he calls the Constance and the Melampus. Captain S., who was captain of the Constance, was known to be a tartar; while Captain I)., who commanded the Melampus, was easy-geiDg, so that nearly all the available seamen volunteered for the Melampus, and it was soon seen that there was little chance of the Constance being manned until the Melampus's complement was complete. Captain S., going one day to his rendezvous in plain clothes, was agreeably surprised to find a fine, sailor-like man with good certificates, who had come to be entered, and he got into con- versation with him, saying rather sarcastically: "Why do you come here ? The Melampus is not manned yet." And as he persisted in getting an answer, the seaman told him: "Well, the fact is, I would sooner sail with a —— rogue than a —— fool."
