"THEY ARE MORE THAN GOLD TO ME, THEY SAVED MY LIFE." For over a QUARTER of a CENTURY these mar vellous Pills have held the first place in the world as a Remedy for Pile and Gravel ttnd all the disorders of the Stomach, Bowels, Liver, and Kidneys. There is not a civilised nation under the sun but that experienced their HEALING VIRTUES. GENERAL SYMPTOMS.—Pains in the Back, Loins, between the Shoulders, and in the region of the Heart, Stomach, Liver, and Kidneys Constipa- tion, Wind, Griping, Colic, Biliousnes, Suppression and Retention of Urine, Pains in the Thighs, Palpita- tion, 'Giddiness, Depression of Spirits, Dropsical Swellings, General Debility. THOUSANDS have been cured by these Pills, and the Proprietor has in his possession an enormous number of Testimonials from all parts of the world, and is daily receiving fresh ones of which the follow- ing, from one of the most popular and respected of Welsh ministers. is a fair sample:- From what I have seen and heard there is not a more deservedly popular medicine in this country than George's Pile and Gravel Pills.' Wherever I go (and I have travelled about a good deal) I am sure to hear of their virtues. I was not more surprised than pleased to find George's Pills' a household word in America when I visited that country a few years ago. This remedy is not a quack nostrum certified to cure all the ills to whicn flesh is heir. On the con- trary, 'George's Pills have no such pretentions, but are offered to the public as safe and sure remedies for two of the most painful disorders that trouble man- kind, viz., Piles and Gravel, and their numerous accompanying aches and pains. Mr. George h a s my sympathy and good wishes in his efforts to relieve mankind of two of its greatest enemies." E. C. EVANS, Baptist Minister. Colwyn Bay."

NOTES.
NOTES. ? By "OBSERVER." CARDIFF. SATURDAY MORNING. Summer has set—of that there is no donbt— Witfc all its pageantry of dust and drought; Yet earnest workers find, both far and near, Their summer rise when Somerset is here. Poor Mabon" is now paying the penalty of a "demijug," as the schoolboy called a demagogue. He has had his run of power and applause, and now to all appearance the kicking season has set in, and that too with unusual severity. When there is such a row in a meeting I that "Mabon'' cannot make his voice heard then the case may well be regarded a hopeless, for I would back that tremendous lung power of Mr. Abraham's against any foghorn in the Channel. That strident shout of Mabon's and his dramatic rendering of I- Hen Wlad fy Nhadau" have carried more than one elec- tion for the Radicals in Wales. Can it be that that day is over, and that so powerful a political factor is to be gagged for good ? If Mr. Ballinger is anything in his attitude towards Ouida and Zola he is at any rate logical. He will not advise his committee to recognise either for the library further than to buy an isolated work of theirs which is admittedly above suspicion. I expect it was this the interviewer had in his eye yesterday, and that he wanted to corner our librarian, for if Ouida be officially recognised there can be no logical objection to Zola. Both have written marvellous books, but both have said what would be vastly better left out, and have suggested what ought for decency's sake to be omitted. There is no reason, though, why a whole. some book like Zola's marvellous "Down. fall" or Ouida's "Rainy June" should not be available, and it would be well if the library committee went further and made a judicious selection from the works of authors notoriously fishy-they could move with care a good way in this direction (as, indeed, they have begun with Zola) and yet te per- fectly safe. With regard to Zola there is much truth- in what the Pall Mall said yesterday:— M. Zola struck the right keynote at the dinner given to him by the Authors' Club last night when he said, In the midst of all these plaudits, these ovations, I well under- stand that the opinion of your critics has not changed in regard to my works. Only you have now seen their author, and have found him less black than report made him out to be." That is as it should be. In literature and in art, as in everything else, we may hate the sin and love the sinner. If there is much in M. Zola's works (con tinues the paper) that we deplore, there is no reason to believe that a line or a word was ever written by him with a view to de- moralise, or with an idea of making profit of what is loathsome. His views of the true function of art are not our views. But con- scientious work—even if the work be not of a kind to be imitated—claims admiration for the worker. That put in a few words con- stitutes the justification of the reception accorded to M. Zola. And yet in our atti- tude towards him the Anglophobe French journalist sees another illustration of English pharisaism. I would direct the attention of students and others to the excellent and growing col- lection of foreign authors in the original to be found at the free library. This is a most important department, deserving of every encouragement,, and I am glad to know that it is largely taken advantage of by foreign residents in Cardiff and others. If I understand her aright Lady Henry Somerset had in her mind when talking with "Grwen" the Chinaman's distinction between drinky for drinky" and drinky for drunky." Foreign drinking is such a very different thing from the same custom amongst ourselves. This brings us back to what I have so often insisted upon in this column that the German, or for that matter the French, system should, for the sake of temperance, be introduced into this country. The pro- vision of pleasant gardens for customers and of food with the drink, and of light, whole- some drink itself, renders intoxication almost unknown the other side of the Channel. Why the same cannot be done over here is a mystery to me. I feel convinced, though, it will have to come sooner or later. Drunkenness and its attendant evils must on the one hand be grappled with, and on the other hand the Englishman will have his beer, no matter who says nay. The remedy, then, is the introduction of the Continental system, and I venture to think if this were done there would be a tremendous rise in the national sobriety with a minimum interference with the licensed victualler. Is not the experi- ment worth trying ? This is the day when the Sporting Man goes about like a roaring lion, and the Hoffis Pote makes the welkin ring with his metrical tips. I see he has a whole bucket- ful of 'em elsewhere. Queer old man, what a labyrinth of eccentricity is his terrestrial pilgrimage I note that Gwen this morning has a kindly word for the young lady attendants at the Theatre Royal, and all who know this popular place of amusement will admit that what she says is well deserved. The teetotalers are going to take a long I pull and a strong pull and a pull altogether to-morrow. Not the kind of pull so dear to the toper, but a series of some fifteen evening services throughout the town. The weak point about these meetings is that in the majority of cases the eloquence is simply wasted on those who have no need for it. The best way of reaching a sinful world is to go out to it, and not wait indoors till it comes this is getting to be more and more recoge- nised by philanthropic workers everywhere. I trust the clever lines on the bttth pro- blem elsewhere will be duly digested by our council and taken as a warning. Though the ratepayers may not make a panguinary onslaught on their rulers, they can do it as effectively, though more slowly, at the polls, and it may be done yet if there is not a shaking amongst the dry bones presided over by Councillor Vaughan. Everybody interested in the welfare of Cardiff should read the correspondence be- tween the local political leaders. It contains a pitiful admission that, so far as the Radicals go, the tail wags the head. But the general public knew this long ago it is the usual way with the Radicals. An honest effort has been made by the Conservatives to raise the tone of local municipal affairs. But the Radicals will have none of it. Some of the more serious 1 spirits amongst them have yearnings in that ] duvl: fcion; but what's the use? The tail won't have it! ]

PINNED HIM TO THE BARN DOOR.
PINNED HIM TO THE BARN DOOR. Ugly Experience of a Farmer Ends Satisfactorily. A remarkable adventure with a blooded bull is reported from Richmond, Indiana. Wm. Martin, one of the oldest and richest farmers in the State, was going along a lane on his farm, accompanied by his ten-year-old son, leading by a ring and rope a large blooded bull, which had always been regarded as per- fectly docile. Near the end of the lane is a hay barn, and as the little procession was passing it the bull, with a hoarse bellow, rushed at the old farmer, and catching him on his horns pinioned him against the barn. The boy was terribly frightened, but the farmer did not lose his presence of mind. The angry animal, when it turned and caught the farmer, had, instead of goring him, pressed one of its horns on either side of his legs just below the hips, and, with flashing eyes, waving tail, and curved spine, stood pressing his sharp horns deeper and deeper into the boards at the old man's back. The farmer, although he did not expect to escape with his life, remained as cool as if simply milking a cow. He told his son to run home and get the gun. The house was a quarter of a mile away, and the boy ran some distance, when the tarmer happened to remember that there was a stout long tined pitchfork in the barn against which the bull was squeezing him tighter and tighter. He called the boy back and told him to get the pitchfork. When the boy returned with the fork,the farmer directed him to the left side of the bull, pointe'd out to him about where the. animal's heart lay beneath the thick hide, and told him to place the tines softly against the bull's side at that spot. These orders were all given with the greatest coolness and deli- beration by the farmer, who was by this time covered with the foam that flew fromthe mouth of the enraged bull. When the boy had placed the fork against the bull's side, the farmer said, "Now, push quick, with all your might and main, if you love me, Tom." The hoy thrust with all his might against the handle of the fork, running the tines their entire length into the bull's side. The animal dropped to his knees as if he had been shot, and with one tremendous bellow rolled over on his side dead. The tines had passed clean through his heart. The old farmer, as the bull's horns withdrew from the planks, fell forward insensible, and it was then discovered that the bull had torn his right leg—ploughed a furrow half an inch deep. So that all the time the farmer appeared so cool and self- possessed he had been suffering the most excruciating pain. For a man over 80 years of age this exhibition of pluck and coolness 's considered remarkable.

FOR ASSISTANT INSPECTORS. Cardiff Health Committee Considers Merits of Applicants. A special meeting of the Cardiff Health Com- mittee was held at the Town-hall this morning under the presidency of Mr. Councillor Brain.— Mr. Clarke, of Newport-road, wrote complain- ing of the stench arising from the drains at Nos. 190 and 192, Newport-road. The writer pointed out that within a limited area of these houses typhoid fever, diphtheria, and other fevers had been prevalent for a long time, and whether such cases had been reported to the medical officer of health or not he (the writer) was in a position to give particulars of several cases that had occurred in the vicinity.—Dr. Walford stated that, no cases of illness that could be attributed to the drainage had been reported from this neighbourhood, and that the property had been inspected, showing that there were no defects in the drains.—It was resolved to inti- mate to Mr. Clarke that the committee were satisfied that there were no defective drains in the neighbourhood complained of, and to afford him an opportunity of giving particulars of the fever cases which, as he had stated, had come under his knowledge.—Fifty applications were received for the post of third-class inspector of nuisances, and out of these three applicants were selected to appear before the committee.— There was no other business.
BERLINERS WON'T HAVE " DADDY…
BERLINERS WON'T HAVE DADDY SUNG. A Birmingham contemporary says:—Wt luive received from Berlin a copy of "Spiel und Sport," a iively little German publication devoted to 'he interests of football, cricket, and other sports. Our contemporary has had a call from Mr. J. W. Phillips, a solicitor well known in cycle trade circles in the Bir- mingham district, who told this rather amus- ing story at his own expense. He was in Copenhagen on business, and had invited some gentlemen to supper at a cafe. On the way thither he essayed to illustrate to his friends the musical charms of Arthur Roberts's latest popular song, "Daddy wouldn't buy me a bow-wow." In the middle of his vocal efforts, however, he was taken in charge by a guardian of the peace and "run in" to the police- sta- tion. There he might probably have had to spend the night had not his friends, Copen- hagen CMitfemen of position, gnined him his liberty by depositing ten kroner as bail for his zjipenr?nce if required.

FIRE ON A STEAMBOAT. A Bootle Fireman Meets with Death. Early this morning a destructive fire broke out in No. 2 hold of the steamship Stronan, lying in South Lanston Dock, Liverpool, in which a large quantity of cotton, grain, and flour was stored. The Bootle Fire Brigade turned out, and got the fire under after six hours' work. During the operations. Engineer Waterman was overcome by the smoke and fell into the lower hold, which had been flooded with water, and was drowned.

At a meeting of the sliding-scale committee, held this morning at the Angel Hotel, Cardiff, an advance of 1J per cent. in wages was agreed to, as from the 1st of October, placing the wages 12J per cent. above the standard of December, 1879.
PARAFFIN LAMPS.
PARAFFIN LAMPS. Prompt Action Prevents a Serious Accident. What might have terminated in a very serious conflagration occurrcd on Friday evening at the house of a man named Richards at 3, Mansell-court, Glebeland-street, Merthyr. It appears that during the evening- a large paraffin lamp, which was alight on the table, had evinced signs of flickering, as if some- thing was wrong with the oil or with the lamp. About ten o'clock the oil vessel burst out in a flame, and Mrs. Richards at once made an endeavour to extinguish the flames with a canvas apron, which immediately ignited. Her husband, seeing the danger, took up the lamp and dashed it out through the window, completely smash- ing the lower portion of the frame. The lamp exploded with a terrific report, which drew a crowd of people to the scene. Fortu- nately no one was injured, and, beyond the breaking of the window, no damage of impor- tance resulted.

CARDIFF GUARDIANS. The Children at Ely Schools in a More Healthy Condition. The usual meeting of the Cardiff Board of Guardians was held at the Workhouse this afternoon, Dr. Paine presiding. A report from Dr. Taylor was read regarding the condition of the children in the Ely Schools.—Dr. Taylor, in his report, stated that he had examined all the children in the school, numbering 256, viz., 131 boys, 80 girls, and 45 infants. He found them all in a more healthy condition than they seemed to have been on former occasions. Amongst the boys be discovered only three marked cases and six mild cases of scabies, amongst the girls three mild cases, and three mild cases amongst the infants.—The board considered the report satisfactory.—The rest of the business was of a routine chtvracter,
THE DRUM POLITICAL.
THE DRUM POLITICAL. Radicals in Despair at Headquarters. Considerable approhensions are felt at the Radical headquarters as to the result of Mr. Gladstone's speech, says the London correspon- dent of the Manchester Courier, At the National Liberal Club the younger members generally censured it as tame and likely to dis- courage the party. The general apathy of the constituencies is causing considerable alarm among the faithful. A wag made the suggestion that Henry Fowler should be sent round to rouse them up," but I regret to say the pro- pospl was received with profused merriment.

AT THE SAME OLD GAME. Annie Harrison Punished Again for Keeping a Shebeen. At Cardiff Police-court this morning (before Alderman David Jones, and Messrs. C. F. Gooch and R. G.

DUTCH MYSTERY DEEPENS. Conflrmation Wanted of De Jong's Story. A Renter's Amsterdam telegram states that a domestic servant has presented herself at the office of the detective department there, and stated that a year ago De Jong was in the habit of visiting at a house in Utrecht, where her mother lived. One day he induced the latter to smell a phial which he offered to her Her mother immediately lost consciousness, and when she recovered De Jong had disappeared carrying off with him, it is alleged, a sum of 300 florins. De Jong, who represented himself as a doctor, gave the girl a box of remedies, which is now in the possession of the police. A Reuter's telegram from Amsterdam on Friday says.-The Judge of the Court of Criminal Inquiry has invited the assistance of the Dutch press in order to discover the persons who on the evening of the 30th and 31st ult. travelled between the Hook of Holland and Liverpool-street Station, via Harwich, in the company of De Jong. The latter alleges that he made the return journey on the 31st ult., accom- panied fey a gentleman of about 40 years of age, who was wearing a soft felt hat and a light brown covert coat, and also an English lady brown covert coat, and also an English lady singer of about 30 years of age, dressed in black, who was going to visit a lady friend. -¡;

A Dalziel's telegram from New York states that the billiard tournament begins on Monday and ends on Saturday at Lenox Lyceum. It will be played on an English table.

THEY ARE GIVEN A FARM. The Milkman and the Vicar's Daughter are Now Forgiven. The inhabitants of Framilode, a Gloucester- shire village, have (wires a Gloucester correspon- dent) been scandalised by the elopement of the vicar's daughter. The young lady formed a romantic attachment with the village milk-seller, a young fellow five years her junior, with the result that they eloped. Their whereabouts re- mained a mystery until their return, when it transpired that they had been married at Bristol. The young lady's father, although much opposed to the match, has resigned to the inevitable, and taken a farm for his son-in-law.

FUNDS STILL LOCKED UP. Mr. W. O'Brien Laments the Ill-advised Agitation. The Press Association says :—Mr. William O'Brien, in the course of a reply to an address from Mr. Smith Barry's evicted tenants, says Were it not for the disheartenment caused by the ill-advised agitation on the subject of tne Paris funds, which is calculated to have the double effect of making the liberation of those funds impossible and of stopping any other source of supply, the country would respond as generously as ever this winter for the support of the evicted tenants. There are signs that the unhappy public controversies as to the inter- national affairs of the Irish party may not be carried further, but left to the free and final decision of the party itself."

Renter's special correspondent with Sir Mortimer Durand's mission, telegraphs from Jugdulluk, September 28, via Lundi Kotal, as follows :—We arrived at this place to-day, al members of the mission being well. We were received by the guard of honour, composed of 60 Sowars and 80 Infantry and the troops in the Jugdulluk command, who "came out to meet us.

Principality Pars.
Principality Pars. More Interesting Notes from the Mail." The new vicar of Aberdare hae started off with the erection of a parochial club. Colonel T. B. Tyler, R.A., of Llantrithyd* embarked yesterday for India for another term of service. How would the coster language spoken with a Welsh accent sound? We have been filled witi' curiosity through reading of the doings of "George Jones, a costermonger." One of the maddest men in Glamorganshire a day or two ago was "Gwilym Lon." A Radical paper at Cardiff had printed his name Gwilym Shon. Mr. W. Howell, who has had a finger in nearly every big case tried in the western counties, is now extending operations to Swansea, where he becomes a fixture. People who find it difficult to pronounce Welsh names should adopt the plan used for sounding Indian names. A familiar rendering of Mr. Dadabhai Naoroji's name is Mr. Dab- in-the-eye Noji. Your sister was not at home last evening, Johnnie?" said a Cardiff young man. You just bet she was!" "I didn't see any light in the parlour." "Oh, yes, there was, "cause I heard pap say there was a spark there." Miss Flora Davis, the daughter of Mr. John H. Davis, the well-known Wels. American banker, of New York, will married to Lord Terence Blackwood, youngest son of the Marquess of Dufferin and Ava, in Paris, October 19. A nice plant was worked off on the Welsh Land Commission last week. Amongsl the witnesses was a man who has lived in England for years, but who insisted on giving his evidence in Welsh, justii'ying this after- wards by saying that he Always talked Welsh in Wales." The leaders of the Tinplate Union can't forget our portraits of them. The president says that the following morning he received a challenge from Morgan Crowther. Another official says that when he got home two davs after he found his wife had packed up and gone away. The Dean of St. David's (the Very Rer. James Allen) is 91, and the parish clerk 87. Both are in ill possession of their faculties, sight and hearing being singularly acute. But the Dean is somewhat infirm, and twice a day regularly is wheeled to his Cathedral in a basket-chair. An American paper which refers to Mr. Ben Davies as the Queen's tenor says that the title was conferred upon him by her Majesty after she had heard him sing at a State con- S cert in place of M. Van Dyck. It would perhaps be cruel to point out, says the Lon- don "Daily News," that the Queen has not been present at >t State concert for upwards of 30 years. Why doesn't the ohief go to Albania for his shooting? The foreign oflice has issued this notice: — l'ersons going to Albania for shooting, &c., should hear in mind that, under a quarantine notice recently issued by the Greek Government, they will, on returning from the Turkish Adriatic coast to Corfu, or any other Greek port, have to perform five j days' quarantine." « Amongst the tales of hard living related to the Welsh Land Commission, perhaps the most striking is that of a witness at Llanrwst, who said he had worked on his father's farm till he was 40 years of age, receiving only ,his board. To provide himself with clothes, he hired himself to other farmers in harvest time, or engaged in a small deal in cattle or pigs. A leading New York daily has broken out like this: — No Emperor of Germany Shall mar t.he noble sport, Dunraven shall have every chance To tow us into port. Then hey for topsails bulging, For spinnakers and spankers, And let the cheers rise loud and long When upward go the anchors. If ever there was a man deep down in the political dumps, that man is Mr. Tom Ellis, Junior Lord of the Treasury. In making an alleged important speech to his Merionethshire constituents Mr. Ellis boasted that the Government had done a good deal for Wales during the past session. They had removed Judge Beresford from a Welsh county-court district, and appointed a Welsh- man in his stead. And this from the Welsh Parnell! Mr. Charles Wilkins's noteworthy man fer this week's "Weekly Mail" is Mr. G. T. Clark, of Dowlais and' Talygarn, notable for his Genealogies of Glamorgan." and his "Castles of Wales." These biographies of the eminent men of Wales (by birth or residence) have now been running for the last six months. They include "all sorts and conditions of men," and will be pub- lished in a separate volume by-and-bye. Somebody connected with this office is great on shooting, and the staff was talking about it last night. Did you hear about Blank's shooting excursion ?" said one. You don't mean to say an amateur marksman like Blank had the nerve to go hunting!" "Yes." Hit anything ?" Yes. He got seven birds." "Well, there's only one way to explain it." "How is that?" "He didn't know the gun was loaded." This paragraph is from the London "Daily' News," so the Welsh names will have to be carefully thought out: "Sir Edward Watkin, Bart., M.P., has purchased the Ffid Issa estate of about 500 acres, extending nearly to the top of Snowdon, and comprising the land around the station and village of Rhyddu on the North Wales narrow gauge railway. This is an important addition to Sir Edward's already large estate, and he now owns nearly all the Beddgelert j slope of the famous mountain." l Lord Swansea is regarded (says "Cassell's jj Saturday Journal") as the greatest living | authority on the subject of copper-smelting. 41 authority on the subject of copper-smelting. 41 He is said to have inspected every copper 1 mine and smelting works throughout Europe. At the age of twenty-one he was appointed one of the managers of his father's firm at Swansea, and in the course of a few months his knowledge of metallurgy, which he had studied with great energy at Eton and Cam. bridge, enabled him to make importa.nt i. provements in the treatment of copper ore. Mr., Samuel Whitbread's son, Frederick Pelham, has wooed and won (says the "Morn- ing Leader") a charming girl in the Hon. Ida Hanbury-Tracy. The young lady, who is the third daughter of Lord and Lady Sudeley, is only just eighteen. She has a, fresh manner, and has been absolutely un- spoiled by Society. Pleasantly accomplished —though her father has taken care that her education has not been pedantic—she unites to her attainments a grace of feature and bearing that will make her one of the pret- tiest brides of the season. This is by no means the first visit to Ainerwf of the owner of the Valkyrie. Lord Dun- raven first visited the New World in 1869 after his marriage with Lord Charles Lenno-, Kerr's daughter. In journalistic circles hu was well received, and particularly so by the late Mr. Louis Jennings, then editor oi the "New York Times," Mr. Hurlbert, who aft that time had charge of the "New Yrvlt World," and the late "Sam" Ward. For twelve years or more he crossed the Atl.mtio annually, a.nd travelled in the Stages, Canada* Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland. Mr. Arthur Jones's latest play is said to be a suggestion of the Faust of Goethe. This may be, but a simile of his is certainly suggested by Lewis Morris in his "Epio8 of Hades." Lewis Morris has a be'tuth'nl sketch of a damsel straying in the wood- lands with a pot lamb and flowers. Sud- denly she became aware of a gallant youth near her, whom she feared was a god. Her lamb wandered, her flowers fell from her hands: "Time fulfilled my being With passion like a cup ? And with one kiss Left me a, woman." This is how Mr. Arthur Jones has it: — "Dead was I till her kindly lips Drew me from senseless day And made me man!"
