MENCE IN OUR COLUMNS ON OCTOBER 31st. A remarkable and singularly versatile man is Dr. Gordon Stables. He is a Scotchman, born in Banffshire in I808. He was educated with a view to "wagging his pow in a pulpit. At the school, flogging went on continually. In playtime the scholars wore always fighting. Young Gordon had over three miles to tramp to school, and at twelve years of age he was a more practical naturalist than many men at forty. At thirteen, he went to the University at Aberdeen. He gained a good education, and t, tD although deeply imbued with religion he refused to enter the pulpit. He told his friends "he did not think lie was good enough for a clergyman." Gordon Stables wished to be a soldicr, but in deference to his mother's wishes declined a cadetship which was offered him, and adopted the lancet. Asa medical man he visited the Arctic regions on two occasions. For ten years lie followed the sea, and saw many lands. When thirty-five years of age he married, and began to write books on all sorts of subjects lifo in the Navy books about Animals (he is all authority on dogs and pets of all kinds) story books for young readers, and novels, books on sports, A:c.

MERTIIYK POLICE-COURT. TIIURSOAV.— Before Messrs. Thomas Williams, Thos. Jenkins, Dr. Cresswell, and Dr. Webster. Ar.coHor.ic VIOLENCE.—Michael Hiley was charged with being drunk at Dowlais on Tuesday night, and with assaulting P.O. Tom Evans.—The officer said that the man, who was in a drunken state, kicked him twice on the knee.—Fined 15s. and costs or 10 days for the drunkenness, the other charge being dis- missed. THE DmNK LOT.—Fines for drunkenness were in- flicted on Elizabeth Brenton, John Donovan, Maurice Casey, Elizabeth Jones, Merthyr Peter O'Hanlan, Penydarren. SLEEPING Our.—William Aivher was charged with sleeping out at the Ynysfach Coke Ovens on Wednes- day night.—Sergeant Thomas proved finding the man at the ovens at two o'clock in the morning. He was in a diunken state when witness discovered him.—- Seven days' hard labour. A CASK FROM TKEHAUKIS. -James Exall (15) was chargcd with stealing a packet of fireworks, the property of Shadrach Dando, at Treharris, on October 7th.—Mrs. Dando stated that on Monday the boy came into the shop for lireworks. She saw him reach up to a shelf. She stopped him and he said, Those are the one, I want." However, he made no purchase, and when lie had gone she missed a packet of fire- works containing a gro'-s of crackers worth 6s.—John Williamy, a boy, said he was in the shop buying fire- works. He saw the prisoner there, and subsequently saw him outside with the fireworks, which he admit- ted having stolen.—P.C. Clynch said that when arres- ted, the boy admitted the theft.—The boy had formerly been sent away to the training ship, but during the past two or three years he had been work- nig underground.—The Bench inflicted a fine of 20s. or 14 days.—The boy's father said lie had done all he could to reform his son, but he still persisted in doing wrong. A CASE FROM DOWLAIS.—John O'Sullivan, Dow- lais, was summoned to show cause why he should not contribute towards the maintenance of his father, aged 68, an inmate of the Merthyr Workhouse.—Mr. 1. T. James appeared for the Guardians, and Mr. D, W. Jones defended.—Mr. J, H. Williams, relieving officer, said the old man formerly lived with defendant, but complained of ill-treatment.—Mr. D. W. Jones produced a properly prepared deed, which bound defendant to maintain his father and mother. A civil action, to be successful, must be an action on the terms of this agreement. The old man was much addicted to drink, and had caused a srreat deal of annoyance but the son had never closed the door against him, and it was of his own accord he went to the workhouse.—The old man was called and said that ho formerly lived in George-street, Dowlais, where he and his son carried on business jointly as lodging-house keepers. For a sum of £ 5 and an agree- ment to provide him with food and lodging he handed over a 14 years lease on the premises at 26 and 27, George-street, Dowlais. In consequence of the bad treatment of the defendant and his wife he was com- pelled to go to the workhouse. — He was 68 years of age.—By Mr. D. W. Jones After executing the deed with his son he went to Ireland, and took J670 with him. He took fishing rights in Ireland, which cost him a good deal of money. He sent to Dowlais for money, and his son sent him £ 5 to come back. It was not true that he had been drinking heavily, nor had he pawned any goods belonging to his son. He was as weak as a robin," and could not work at all. His wife was living,but she and the defendant treated him with silent contempt." They would not even allow his grandchildren to see him. He denied having gone into the workhouse in order to have revenge on his son. At this point the old man burst into tears, and was with difficulty peroualed to leave the witness- box.—The defendant said that he was keeping his motlur, Mid was willing to ke 'P his mother under lie agreement. His father went to Ireland, and took between JSZOO and £ 400 with him, and not JS70 as stated. Since the old man came back from Ireland he had got drunk as often as three or four timts a day. He even got up at four o'clock in the morning and waited for the nearest public-house to ore;). Witnoss had never locked tho door against his father, nor refused to give him food. When he refused to give his father monev to get drink, the old man threatened to go into the workhouse.—By Mr. James His father was an able-bodied man. It was true that he had met with an accident and broken his arm some time ago, but that did not prevent him from doing any work.—The Bench, after consulting their clerk, expressed the opinion that the son should pay 5s. a week, and an order was accordingly made, with costs. A JOKE. — James Lister and James Evans, Rhym- ncy, were charged with stealing three brass candle- sticks, the property of Mary Williams, at Dowlais, on Tuesday.—The matter appeared to be a joke, and the Bench regarding it in this light discharged the prisoners. STEALING A PI'BSE.—Michael Mahony was charged with stealing a purse containing 20s. from the person of James Johnson, at Merthyr, on Tuesday It appeared that the two men had been drinking together at the Cardiff Arms Inn, Caedraw. The prisoner followed the other man into the yard and forcibly took the purse from his pocket. Subsequently he returned the purse and part of the money.—The Bench sent the man to prison for a month with hard labour, A BAn CASK.—John Rees Hopkins was chargcd 11 11 with being drunk in Bridge-street, on Monday night. —P.C. James Davies proved the case.—Tho prisoner was further charged with attempting to drown Catherine Doyle, of Picton-street, Caedraw. —On this charge the prosecutrix stated that on Monday night at 7 o'clock she heard a row in Bridge-street, and went to see what was going on. She went over the bridge towards the Little Isle of Wight, and whilst there tho prisoner came up, placed his amis around her, and threw her bodily into the feeder. She was rescued by a police-oflieer and some people who were near at the time. Her hand, arm, and leg were injured very much by the fall.—rI he prisoner said lie was running away from a police-officer, and accidentally pushed the woman into tho water.—The woman said this was untrue, as the man lift. d her up, and threw hr-r into the water. She had not had any quarrel with the man.—John llarrui said that the prisoner made a great lOW on Monday night in the locality known as Little Ido of Wight." Tho witness, continuing said This gentleman (meaning thy pri oner) was standing near the corner. — Col. Lewis 1 should call him a drunken beast, and not a gentleman.—Witness Wet!, he chucked her fair over the biidge, and said he would have his reveuge on somo old cow. —Elizabeth Griffiths, auothvr lesideut on the island," gave corroborative evidence, and P.C. James Davies said ho visited the locality to quell a disturbance. Ho heard a splash, and turning round he saw the woman in the water. The prisoner ran past witness, and went into a house. The woman went completely under the water. There were three feet of water in the feeder at the time, and a rapid current of water was running. There was a long bridge over tho feeder near by, and if the woman had been carried under that structure she would certainly have been drowned. On being charged at the police-station, the prisoner said it was an accident.—Dr. W. W. Jones said the woman's right side was covered with bruise* and she was suffering from a sprained thumb and wrist.—The charge was reduced to one of assault, and the prisoner still maintained that it was an accident, but said he had no witness to speak on his behalf. The Bench imposed a fine of 10s. and costs or 10 days for the drunkenness, and £3 and costs or a month for the assault. MONI;AV.—Before Mr. C. H. James, Mr. M. Truran, and Mr. T. Williams.
