Evans, B.A., the diocesan in- spector of schools, has been licensed by the Bishop of Bangor to take the temporary charge of the parish of Bangor (St. Mary's district). DENBIGH. The Rev. Chancellor Bulkeley O. Jones, Warden of Ruthin, who is slowly recovering from a serious illness, contemplates retiring from his incumbency of the parishes of Ruthin and Llanrhydd. He has attained an advanced age, and has held the living, and with it the wardenship of Christ's Hospital, for half a century. His predecessor, Archdeacon Newcome, held office for a similar period, so that there have only been two Wardens of Ruthin since the beginning of the nineteenth century. GLAMORGAN. A most severe thunderstorm broke over Glamor- gan on Friday last, resulting in two fatalities. Ernest Albert Parker (19) was killed whilst plough- ing at Bonvilstone, and Thomas Williams, an elderly farm labourer, of Cross Vaen, near Llan- trissant, was killed whilst standing by a cart of mangolds, the flash of lightning having also damaged the chimney of the farmhouse. The following is a true anecdote from an infants' school just on the outskirts of Cardiff. A little girl of five was asked by the schoolmistress for her father's name for registration purposes. The child did not understand the question, whereupon the mistress, to simplify matters, asked "What does your mother call your father ?" The little one's face lit up as she eagerly replied My sweetheart." The teacher is still laughing. Tom Owen, the Welsh comedian, who has lately been appearing at the Cardiff and Swansea Empires, is a native of Swansea, and regularly each summer appears at the Mumbles concerts. Mr. Oswald Stoll has booked the Welshman until the end of 1908. By the way, Tom tells a good story about a visit he paid to an English town on the Stoll tour, where he was conversing with some friends. One who joined the company later, thinking he scented the opportunity for a joke, commenced to make silly remarks about Wales. Where is it ?" he asked. What part of the world does it lie ?" Tom Owen's eyes twinkled, ''Write and ask the New Zealanders," he quietly remarked. MONTGOMERY. Last month the Rev. Prebendary R. M. White completed his 60th year as vicar of Churchstoke, Montgomeryshire, and in honour of this diamond jubilee he was presented by his parishioners a few days ago with a congratulatory address. A free tea was also provided for all the residents of the parish, numbering nearly 1,000. Although in his 95th year, the reverend gentleman enjoys good health, and continues to be actively engaged in his parochial work. He was ordained as long ago as 1837, and he availed himself of the celebration to give some interesting reminiscences of the reforms which have taken place in the Church since the earlier part of the last century. PEMBROKE. Another volume of the writings of the Elizabethan antiquary George Owen, of Pembrokeshire, edited by Dr. Henry Owen, will shortly be issued in the Cymmrodorion Record Series." It will contain two tracts of the first importance for the history of legal administration in Wales, namely, The Dialogue of the Government of Wales," written in 1594, and never previously published, and "A Treatise of Lordship Marchers in Wales," now re- produced for the first time from the author's original MS., which is at Llanstephan. The volume will also contain Owen's Description of Wales" (1602) from the author's MS. at the Bodleian. Blaenywaun Welsh Baptist Church, two miles from Cardigan, and with a branch at Bethsaida, in the village of St. Dogmells, is one of the oldest Nonconformist places of worship in the district. Bicentenary celebrations were commenced on Good Friday and continued over Easter Monday. The present membership is about 600, and the cause is flourishing under the pastorate of the Rev. J. D. Hughes, formerly of Dowlais. The series of cele- bration meetings was well attended, and those who took part included Mr. Benjamin Rees, J.P. (Granant), St. Dogmells Revs. J. Spinther James, Llandudno; Professor Davies, Cardiff; E. T. Jones and Hugh Jones, Llanelly (former pastors) T. Shankland (Bangor) and J. D. Hughes, the present pastor.

Athletic Chat. [BY CEREDIG.] The Wane of the Football Season.- Once again have we practically reached the end of another football season. It is true that there are still a few matches to be played by the leading Welsh clubs, but practical interest ceased with the passing of Eastertide. I have every reason to believe that there are many readers of the LONDON WELSHMAN who are interested in healthy athletics of all kinds, and with the per- mission of the editor I intend making this a column of general athletic items of special interest to Welshmen. Welsh Clubs' Easter Engagements.-All the leading Welsh clubs came out with flying colours in their Eastertide engagements Cardiff in- flicted a very severe drubbing on the Barbarians, and also beat Leicester, thus upholding their reputation of being the only unbeaten first-class Rugby combination in the British Isles this season. Swansea and Newport also made a good show-in fact, the form of both teams was con- siderably better than it was in the middle of the season. By the way, A. F. Harding, the captain of the London Welsh, played with the Barbarians in all their Easter matches in South Wales. The London Welsh.—The London Welsh are about closing one of the most successful seasons in the history of the club. The first fifteen have only been beaten five times this season, and of these three were at the hands of South Wales clubs. The club is now recognised by all the leading London newspapers to be the best Rugby combination in the British metropolis, and this is a correct estimation of the club's abilities, seeing that all the London Rugby teams have been defeated by Captain Harding's men, viz., Blackheath, London Scottish, Harle- quins, Lennox, Old Merchant Taylors, Catford, and Guy's Hospital. Welsh Professional Cyclist's Success. — In London, the other day, Mr. Syd Jenkins, of Cardiff, the Welsh professional, won two out of three events at 440, 550, and 880 yards in the triangular international duel" between him and Piard (Paris) and George Flint (Croydon). The Welshman was in splendid form. History of the Cardiff R.P.C.—I am told that Mr. C. S. Arthur, the genial secretary of the Cardiff Rugby Football Club, intends publish- ing a book on the history of the Cardiff Rugby Football Club. Mr. Arthur, who is a native of Carmarthen, but has been resident in Cardiff for many years, is himself an old footballer, being in his day considered one of the smartest players in the country. Wilton Lawn Tennis Club.I was pleased to see from last week's WELSHMAN advertisement columns that the Wilton (London) Lawn Tennis Club will commence its season on May 5th. Mr. R. O. Jones, 24, Northampton Park, Canonbury, is the energetic secretary of the club. I wish the members a successful and pleasant season.

THE ROVER CVCLEs.-Readers desirous of buying a really smart and well-constructed cycle should call or write for a catalogue of the famous Rover Cycles. The South Wales depot is at 9, Working Street. Close upon 40 championships were won last year by riders of Rover Cycles at various athletic meetings. This is a striking fact.
