A NAKED EYE SUNSPOT. It Can be Clearly Seen Through Darkened Glass. Though spots on the sun of sufficient dimen- sions to be seen with the naked eye are by no means unknown, they are sufficiently rare to be invested with considerable interest when they make their appearance. One such is now visible, and may be seen within the next day or two by the readers of the "Western Mail," if they care to make the experiment. The spot may be easily and pleasantly noted when the sun is close to the horizon and obscured by its vapours; at any other time a smoked or other- wise darkened glass should be brought into requisition. The smaller circle in the accom- panying illustration Naked Eye Sunspots. shows the sun as seen with the unaided eye at a quarter to two on Thursday afternoon. The larger circle represents the sun at the same time as seen in a small achromatic armed with an eye-piece of low magnifying power. The smaller spots (of course, invisible to the naked eye) form, with the great one, a rough figure of a sickle, and re-call the group of stars of that name in the constellation Leo. When it is recollected that the sun's diameter is con- siderably more than 800.000 miles, and that the smallest spot in the diagram is much larger than our earth, some idea may be gained of the size of the spot we are now discussing, small though it may appear to unassisted vision.

OVERHEAD WIRES. A Matter Which Requires Attention at Cardiff. Another of the inconveniences of over- head telegraph and telephone wires was 7n- stanced on Thursday at Cardiff. The Fire Brigade were engaged in practice witu the new escape, and in order to test its capabilities took it to the Westgate-street side of the Royal Hotel. During the run down Westgate- street the escape had to be lowered several times to allow it to pass under wires stretched across the road. The wires at this point run parallel with the houses on the park side of Weetgate-st-reet, and if a fire occurred there and the escape was needed the wires would have to be cut away before it could be placed against the wall of the house. This is a matter which the watch committee should inquire into, for a very serious delay might be caused and loss of life ensue.

STRIKE IS PROBABLE. Taff Vale Railway Men to Hold a Mass Meeting First. The employes of the Taff Vale Railway Com- pany, dissatisfied with the attitude of the directors in refusing to receive representations from the workmen's committee, have, it is understood, decided to hold a mass meeting with a view of coming out on strike. In the event of a strike, the Taff may probably be joined by those on the Barry Railway, the difficulty being one of principle-the right of labour to a due recognition of their accredited representatives.

SPURGEON'S SUCCESSOR. More Trouble Amongst the Tabernacle. Congregation. Though the term of ministry accorded to Mr. Thojpas Spurgeon at- the Metropolitan Tabernacle has but half expired, that section of the congre- gation which has throughout advocated Dr. Pierson as the most suitable successor to the late pastor is already privately canvassing for votes in favour of the popular American preacher. That there is likely to be a con. siderable amount of dissension among the mem- bers of the congregation when the matter is fully discussed is evident from the fact that, contrary to all previous action in the matter of controlling the Church, the deacons have not been re-elected. It is understood that Dr. Pierson bus been baptised, and that, conse- quently. reiiiove3& difficulty which has hitherto stood in the way of his election to the Taber- naoie pulpit. A special meeting, to which only members of the Church will be admitted, has been called for March 21, when the matter will be finally discussed.

ROYAL WELSH LAD)ES' CHOtR. On Wednesday the Royal Welsh Ladies' Choir visited Maesteg, and were met at the station by the Maesteg Brass Band, who pre. ceded the choir from the station to the Town- hall. As soon as the doors of the spacious hall were opened every available space was at once crowded. The concert was in all respects a grand success.

FOR A PURSE OF £25" Butcher Knocks McCarthy Oat in Five Rounds at Aberdare. On Thursday night a. glove contest for a purse of J325 and side stakes took place at Patsy Perkins's booth, Aberdare, between Pawdy M'Car thy and Sam Butcher. Butcher was seconded by T. James and D. St. John, O'Brien and Concannon being in the corner behind McCarthy. Mr. J. Westeray was. referee. There were about 400 people present. In the first round both men went at it hammer and tongs, and the result of a hafd-foraght round was slightly in favour of Butcher. Round 2 witnessed another hard bout. M'Carthy was very wild at the outset, but Butcher fought cautiously, evidently with the hope of a. knock- out blow. Towards the close of the round Butdser got home a regular rib-stinger. with the result that McCarthy went to the boards. The two time-keepers, however, disagreed over the time the man was down, and the referee, therefore, ordered them to fight on. Round 5 saw McCarthy come up very fresh, and the opening stages were, perhaps, a trifle in his favour. Towards the close, however, Butcher out-manreuvred him,, the round fmiflhing fairly even. Round 4 was of a rough-and-tremble4 character, a lot of sharp in-fighting taking place. Of this Butcher had slightly the best- until just towards the close, when McCarthy rallied and rushed at his opponent, fighting him round' the ring, and at the finish on to the ropes. Round 5 and last, was the beet of the bouts fought. It was give and take from start to finish, both men takmg a lot of severe punish- ment. Butcher was slightly the stronger, throughout, and eventually M'Carthy became so exhausted that he gave in, Butcher tiiue winning the fight. J. O'Brien v. Tom James. After the fight a match was made between John O'Brien and Tom James for £50 aside, to box in two months from the signing of articles. A deposit was made on each side.

TREORKY MYSTERY. Coroner's Inquest Upon the Body of an Unknown. The inquest upon the body of the unknown man found dead underneath a hay rick at Treorky on Tuesday took place at Treorky Police-station on Thursday afternoon, before Mr. R. J. Rhys coroner. Formal evidence of the finding of the body having been given, a medical gentleman deposed that in his opinion the body bad lain in the place where it was found for about three weeks. It was absolutely impossible to give an opinion as to the cause of death. There were, however, no marks sug- gestive of violence. The jury returned a verdict of Found dead." Mr. Jabez Baffour States,that he Left England by Special Request.'

WITHOUT WIRES. Practical Test of Electric Signalling at Lavernock Point. In his paper on ''Electric Signalling Without Wires," read before. the Society of Arts on Wednesday evening, Mr. W. H. Preece. F.R.S.. remarked that the experiments which li;id been carried out up to 1889 showed the theoretical possibility of signalling without wires. In 1886 experiments were made on parallel lines four miles and a half apart be- tween Bristol and Gloucester, where there were no intermediate conductors to vitiate the results. Moreover, the circuits used were metallic throughout. Under theBe circumstances, only weak disturbances were detected, though when the experiments were repeated in 1889 in the light of experience more success was obtained. In 1892 a practical test was made in the Bristol Channel. On Lavernock Point, near Cardiff, a copper wire 1,267 yards long' was hung on poles, the circuit being completed by earth. On the sands at low-water mark, 600 yards from tliis circuit, and parallel to it, two covered copper wires and one bare one were laid down, their ends being buried deep in sand. On the Flat Holm. 3'1 miles away, another covered wire 600 yards long was laid down. On the shore an alternating, current (wliich was controlled by a Morse key) with a fre- quency of 192, a voltage of 150. and of any desirable strength up to fifteen amperes was sent through the primary circuit. The signals received on the Flat Holm on the secondary circuit produced sound and were read on a pair of telephones. By this means messages were successfully sent. The same method was tried with another island—the Steep Holm. 5'35 miles awa v—but was scarcely successful. Distur- bances were, indeed, perceptible, but the sig- nals could not be, read. Such experiments, in which careful precautions were taken to elimi- nate the effects of earth-currents, proved the possibility of signalling between England and France without- any wires being carried across the Channel. But the expense would not lie negligeable, ^r at Lavernock Point a two- horse power ettgine was required to net results lover three or foiw luilea. 1

Shoplifting as an Art. HOW IT IS PRACTISED AND BY WHOM. A Big London Tradesman Tells of Experiences Gathered in His Place of Business. There are a few professions which fiouria exceedingly even in "days like these." One of them is the fine art of shop-lifting. Mr. William Whiteley, of London, who has the largest stage for actors of this kind, and also (vide the police-court reporte) a large and varied experience of the genus shop-lifter, was good enough to give us (says the "Westminstat Gazette") some plain and interesting facts con cerning the art and its followers. "Is shop-lifting on the increase?" the pros* man asked. "I am afraid it is," Mr. Whiteley said." Ani there is no doubt about its being made a verj fin* art. It is not poor people who do it, but women of the middle and upper classes Some time ago a lady used to drive up to us in a brougham, and every time she had beea some articles were missing. But she did it so cleverly it was impossible to catch her at it. At last she was surprised when she was stowing away a needle-case of 'the value of 101 d I dare say she found it terribly annoy- ing that such a cheap thing should have got her into such trouble. But so it was. I asked her into my counting-house, and there, in the presence of a detective, I eharged her with the theft. She made a terrible ado, sak this wicked charge should be my ruin, &p. 'But kindly allow us to see what there it in that bag of yours,' I urged. 'You can easily prove your innocence if it does not contain the missing needle-case, which my young man maintains you put into the bag.' She said it was an insult, and repeated that this should ibe my ruin. In the end we had to take her to the police-station, where she was searched .ttv a female searcher. The needle-case was é found. We knew she had taken many more valuable things, but we had no proofs. Her case came on at the Old Bailey; she had Mr. Montagu Williams to defend her, but it was no good. She was convicted. I need not add that we had no further visits from that lady." "But how do they do i-t"?" "One of their commonest tricks is to have several large pockets in their dress into which they can push things easily without being observed. Very often they wear long. loose cloaks, such ae you see sick nurses wear, and, of course, they can hide things easily under these. Some- j times they wear double cloaks, and, in case, -a suspicion falls on them, they open the upper one, saying. 'But if I have hidden anything under my cloak. show it me. Surely you could see at once.' Most of our shop-lifting ladies 'hunt in couples.' One goes to the counter and engages the attendant's services; the second stands behind her acooiwplioe. While the attendant has turned his or bar ( hack to get something, the article is swiftly and dexterously whipped off the counter into the lady's capacious receptacle." "Why do you always epeak of "women as shop-lifters, Mr. Whitteley? Are there no male srtists of this class?"—"Yes. there ace, but the women are the chief offenders, Fot every man we catch at it we catch at least 300 women. Naturally women like finery; why shouldn't they? And some of them, if they cacao* get it by fair means, they get it by foul. "By the way, when we suspect a person of shop-lifting we always allow her to get off the premises before we say anything; because, if she were taken in the place, she would, of course, say she wae going back to the depart- ment to pay. Once she is outside we just point out to her, quite politely, that she hM forgotten to pay for such an artiele, and ask her to turn back and rectify her mistake. If she is wise enough to do so. then, of course, we are obligel to let her off. But if she deniea having the article, we send for a detective and have her searched. Yes; we prosecute in very case. There is a kind of association between the large West-end shops, the mem- bers of which pledge themselves to prosecute in every case of shop-lifting." "Don't people plead that they are klepto- maniacs when taken like this?"—"Of course they do. All thieves who belong to the middle classes plead kleptomania when caught. There never was a poor man or woman who had stolen anything and then gave the klepto- mania excuse. Kleptomania does exist, but it is a rare thing. In all my experience—and I assure you I have had a good deal in this matter-I have only come across a single case of kleptomania. It was that of an elderly gentleman, a military man. He came to us very frequently, bought things in various de- partments, and whenever he bought, there he also managed to slip into his pocket a pair of gloves, stockings, a necktie, or something of the sort. His friends, however, had warned us beforehand, and he was always closely watched as he went about by one of our young men. Then, when the bills were presented to him, the 'lifted' article was included in it, and he always paid for it." "Before you catch a shoplifter in the act I suppose you can do nothing, though you may suspect him?"—"Well, whatever we do has to be done very oarefuHy. For instance, a, lady used to drive up here very frequently, buying things in ever so many departments, but always small things which did not amount to much. We were perfectly positive that she stole thingg every time she cacie, but she was so clever we eould never provo anything. One day, how- ever, I told one of my people to let me Know- when she came again. She had jest bought some gloves, when I asked her to wait a moment. I returned the money to her, put the gloves back, and said, 'Now, madam, let me advise you to fro home, and not to come into this place again. I know perfectly well why you are htre. I also know that it would not be worth jour while to drive all the dis- tance from vo ir house to West-bourne GroVil to buy things v hich never amount to-more than five shillings if you had not some special object The best advite I can give you is to go away quietly, and not let us see you any mort'. She took that advice. "Curiously enough we have not infrequently sent to us s nail turns of conscience money, with notes, ia which people—anonymously, of course-say tMt on such and such a date they have taken goods away, for which they haTe not paid. and which, they believe, amount te so and so much. You see there are even shop lifters with a rag of a con-science left."

A New Underwater Vessel. Mr. [ George Sautamarina, son of the Spanish Consul at Newcastle, has, says the 'V Newcastle Chronicle, designed plans for a. now underwater vessel which might, be either a gun- boat or an ordinary cargo steamer. One of the special features of the vessel i £ that it is to ha.ve four propeHers—two twin screws, that is, two at the stem and two at the stern. These pro- pellers are so designed as to afford what w called" perjXJtual motion." The masts and funnels of the vessel arc telescopic, and the machinery also might be laid flat on deck.
