Football Competition. THIS WEEK'S WINNER OF THE GUINEA PRIZE. Some Useful Hints for the Welsh Team in their Final International Struggle. The past week's competition for the football prize has been a keen and a large one. Over A, 000 coupons were sent in, of which 266 were 8Gccesgful in giving the names of each of the winning clubs. When the matter of scores oarne to be dealt with, these, however, soon narrovved down to a trio. Strange to say, out of such an enormous number of coupons, not a single one gave the correct winning scores in all the matches. Several gave the correct goals, tries, and points in one or two matches, but no one went nearer than that. With the last three left m it became a question to decide as to whose coupon, all tilings considered, came most nearlr to the actual solution. Upon this principle we have decided to adjudge the prize to MR. W. M. TUNLEY, 19, Duke-street. CARDIFF, Whose coupon sent in was as follows: — WINNER, LOSER. w<srr J G-. T. £ G. T. £ Cardiff v. Newport ..Jcardift 0 1 3 0 0 6 Swansea v. OevonportjSwansea,. 118 0 0 0 Llanelly v. Lampeter;Llanelly ..1 2 11 0 0 0 Neath v. Penarth [Neath 1 0 4 0 0 0 P'pridd v. Penygraig-'P'pridd 1 0 5 0 0 0 Morriston v. AVrarenjMorrist'n 10 1 3 0 0 0 l_ The other two competitors who were left in the final choice were Mr. J. H. Lewis, 3, Paradise-place, Cardiff; and Mr. D. Job, 3, North Loudoun-place, Cardiff. One hears regret on every hand that so many of the original team are unable to make the journey to Belfast this week end. Personally, I don't think that the defection of Gould or M'Cutcheon will make much difference, but the absence of Graham and Boucher will weaken our front rank considerably. Both are clever dribblers, and persistent in follow- ing up, just the type of men required to break up the combination of the Irish forwards. The easiest way to meet a clever lot of forwards is to prevent them from bieaking away. Our men must secure the ball in the scrimmage at any cost, and then compel the Irishmen to exorcise their scrimmaging powers. Once this is done the ball can be heeled out, and the halves, freed from the close attention of the opposing forwards, will be able to transfer to the three-quarters with some hope of success. Of c-ourse, our main hope will be the backs, but our forwards will have to remember one thing, and that is. that to attempt to heel out continually will mean that the Irish forwards will simply hang on the fringe of the scrim- mage, ready to dart out and spread them- selves out over the field, and spoil our back division. Our forwards will, of course, have to use discretion in this matter. Apropos of the international match, the London "Echo," under the title of ''Ill-fortune for the Principality,comments on Gould's absence as fellows:—"Wales will be unable to place her strongest team in the field against Ire- land next Saturday, many of her best-known men being forced to absent themselves from the fixture. A. J. Gould, T. C. Graham, and A. W. Boucher are spoken of as those whose presence is likely to be missed, and those who recognise the sterling abilities of the first-named will understand what his absence really means. Undeniably he is the most finished centre three-quarter of any of the internationalists. The line turns upon him as its pivot, and the lade of his experience will make a great dif- ference to his side. A forward's place can be filled without much difficulty, but with a back it is different. Ireland has naw but to defeat Wales to run through the series with an unbroken record, and the probability is tha.t she will do so. English forwards defeated the Welshmen, the Irish pack were too good at Blackheath, and playing on Saturday on their own ground, they will doubtless show that they have lost none of their daeh." H. G. Wells, who is compelled to stand down from the Irish international team. was the smallest of the Irishmen. He has been described as a "pocket Hercules." He stands 5ft. 4in. in height, weighs eleven stone, and is 22 years of age. He was born at Agra, India, but went to Ireland when quite young, surtd learnt his football with a club connected with a Dublin railway works. Afterwards he joined the Claremont Football Club, a,nd when that club smashed he, along- with several of his fellow members, joined the Bective Rangers, with whom he has since been connected. He is exceedingly fast, and, like many other speedy three-quarters, he has his good days, and then he is very dangerous, being undoubtedly the best soorer in Ireland. He played for Ireland against Scotland some few years ago. With the ex- ception of the height, his similarity to Pearson in the matter of birth, &c., Till strike many of my readers. The figure fiend has been at work, and wishes us to consider the number of A. A. Zimmer- man's successes during last season's cycle racing. It is generally interesting, and more especially to cyclists, so I give them. He won in all prizes to the value of 11.848 dollars. His miscellaneous assortment of awards comprised 35 diamond pins, rings, and studs, fifteen bicycles, twelve sets of silver ware, six clocks, eight watches, eleven medals, one piano, two road buggies and a pair of horses, two bronze figures, two cups, one dressing-case, one gun, one suit of clothes, and a set of tyres. His most costly prize was the 1,000 dollar gold cup won at Indianapolis. The piano vva- valued at 600 dollars. Three 250-dollar diamonds were won at Milwaukee and Cincinnati, and a 250-dollar bronze statue in Paris. The cham- pion competed in 70 open events, and won 66 of them. He won eight of fourteen handicaps, conceding long starts of ten International events he won eight; and he was not beaten in any lap race. Nine out of twelve champion- ships fell to him. and lIe fell in two of them. To capture these prizes Zimmerman had to compete at 32 race meets in five different countries, and covered in all 174- miles on the track in actual racing. Such a record as this has never been equalled by any othar cyclist. The annual general meeting of the Cathays Cricket Club was held at the South Wales Restaurant, Queen-street. Cardiff, when the following officers for the ensuing season were elected:—Captain, Mr. J. J. Lewis: vice- captain, Mr. J. P. Cadogan; hon. secretary and treasurer. Mr. W. G. Bowden, Bedford- street.

The evi- dence tendered was mainly the same, as at the inquest. Both Drs. Knowling and Lock, ho hal made a post-mortem examination, swore ihsit the cause of the death of the child was strangulation. At the conclusion of the evi- dence she was formally charged with the crime by Mr. Robert Lock, clerk to the justice?, iixl in reply said she did not kill the child, and did not know what, she was doing.—The Bench then committed her for trial for wilful murder to the next assizes for the county of Pembroke at Hayerfordwest.

I A PROSAIC LOVER. Sued by a Swansea Girl for Breach of a 'I Marriage Promise. A sheriff's court was held at Swansea Town- hall on Tuesday afternoon (before Mr. E. B. Reece, under-sheriff, and a Jury) to assess j damages in a breach of promise action brought by Miss Louisa Hewett, late of Uplands. Pem- brey. now manageress of a boot shop at Broms- grove, against Mr. Ford Slater, described as a wholesale stationer, of Gorse-lane, Swansea. Mr. Howells. Llanelly, appeared for the plain- tiff, a neatly-dressed young woman. 31 years of age; and Mr. Meager (instructed by Mr J. Yiner Leeder) for the defendant, Air. Howells, in opening the case, stated the facts (as detailed by the plaintiff below), and gave extracts from letters. The plaintiff said she now resided at Pem- brey with her uncle. She was 31 years of age. She had known the defendant nearly twenty years, and first made his acquaintance at Swan- sea, where he visited her father's house with her brother. She was acquainted with him for ten years, after which her family left Swan- sea, She afterwards became acquainted with him again whilst on a visit to Stroud, and he then commenced courting her. She became manageress of a boot and shoe shop at Broms- groye and had the letters from the defendant which had been read by her counsel. Her parents at that time lived at Uley, and whilst she was on a visit to them defendant came there, and in consequence of his promise to marry her when trade allowed she gave up her situation. Defendant's sisters visited her at Uley for a month, and she came to Swansea a.nd stayed with them for a month. Whilst there defendant seemed to be very cool towards her, and he made no efforts to make her visit enjoyable. After she went to Peinbrey defen- dant came to see her. She asked him "why he had done so little to make her visit enjoyable, and had not told his parents of their engage- ment. He told her if she was not satisfied they had better "jack it up." He. said he did not come down there to be talked to. Wit- ness said the time he had promised to marry her was up. and asked if she should get another situation. He said "if she was in such a bad humour he would put on his hat and go home." He would not be persuaded to stay. and she was very much put out. She had seen nothing of him since that time. Be had given her a ring and several presents. Defendant had said he was in partnership with his father as a wholesale stationer and paper bag merchant, and the :5.rn1. kept a traveller. Extracts from letters were read :— On the 19th of October defendant. wrote her as follows :—"Any man that would marry without prospects is not worthy of the name. None of us can answer for the future. I don't like to ask veu by letter if you are willing- to form an alliance and become engaged because I think I ought to be with \so that if you answered Yes I could show my appreciation, and, secondly, I don't know exactly when I can con- veniently get married. ^It may, possibly, be a- couple of years, and perhaps it would be wrong for me to ask you to be a party to such an arrangement. I may say this, I told your Jim fourteen years ago if I ever did marry I knew the girl that would be my wife. I have never daring that time asked a female to go for a walk or written a letter to anyone but the girl I then referred to." On the 27th of October he wrote :—" I was much pleased with your letter, and I trust we shall never regret our promises. Two years is a long time to be separated, but I cannot but think it is for the better. I trust the unhealthy excitement about business will then die down." In further letters he bewailed the dul»ess of trade. Sand said he had never considered himself much of a hand with the ladies, but he reciprocated her remarks and hoped she was not flattering him. "Perhaps, however," he added, "it is because I never before met anyone I troubled about till Christmas of 1890. Why on earth I did not seek the opportunity earlier puzzles me." Subsequently, after the stormy interview, he wrote :—" 9fch January, 1894. I must thank you for causing me this morning one of tke greatest surprises of my life. Yen know per- fectly well I never broke any promise. The last time I was at the Uplands you told me to go. and slammed the door of the room into which you went. If you have money to spend on law you are better efr than I am." In reply to Mr. Meager, plaintiff admitted that none of the letters were gushing, and that In reply to Mr. Meager, plaintiff admitted that none of the letters were gushing, and that the first distinctly stated defendant's position, and said he was not able to fix any date for the marriage. Defendant lived with his father. They had a printing office behind their house in Gorse-lane. They made and printed paper bags. She believed be was a partner. She had since tried to get a situation, and failed, but she could go back to her old situation. By Mr. Howeils The defendant was a poultry-fancier, and told her he was giving S6 and. JE12 for a single bird. She told him she considered be thought more of a bird thai: of her to do so. For the defence the defendant and his father were called. Defendant said he respected plain- tiff, but simply was unable to marry. He had no money.—Bis father stated that the business hardly supported the family. His son had never received a penny as partner, and assisted him in his work because he could get nothing better. The jury, after hearing the under-sheriff, assessed the damages at £ 40.

SURGICAL DISCOVERY. In the LANCET of March 3 a valuable paper appears from the pen of Dr. J. T. Creswick- Williams. of Whitia-nd. formerly house-surgeon at the Carmarthenshire Infirmary. Dr. Williams describes a method of treating obstruction of the bowels by generating carbonic acid g-as within the bowels, by which means he has succeeded in curing this very fatal disease.

On this point, however, be forms so vexed, an- noyed. and otherwise offended a ques- t-ion that- to at- tempt the disen- tanglement of it is a forcible reminder of the commentator who said a dry-plaiR is sorry refresh- ment. Personally, therefore. I am con- tent to let how does he do it f rush, and get to the more congenial and matter- of-fact question of the happenings. The bird cage trick was his piece ae RESISTANCE a few years back, and with it he mystified every audience he came across. Of course there be always some who imagine thej know how things are done. Ko-Ko. although he be sensible on a few points, is, I am bound to con- fess. one of these kind of gerloofcs, and in answer to my exclamation of surprise when the trick was shewn the other evening he ran his fingers through his curly locks, and, raking up what be remembered of his French, or what passes for such, rejoined, VCNIS POUTNEZ Le FAIREJusso! Always providing a man, knows how. Oh. but he is a Eaa. knave is Ko-Ko. ———— But the great mystery, and one which Mfc, Hertz assures me it took him three years t* perfect, is the disappearance of a gentleman locked and shackled to a board. and in whose place less than half a minute later appears a young lady, whilst the original occupant of the board coolly walks down the side of the hall as if he had been among the audience all the evening. By the grand owid un and that's an awful oath as things go just now, but it's a great show, and to better it one has te be clever with no uncertain cleverness.

To my way of thinking the school seene is one which might be well dispensed with altogether, and its excision would leave the piece a charming little «pectaele well within reasonable limits. As for the revels themselves they are very charming and. very clever. The dancing is smart, the music bright, and the setting a triumph of scenic effect. I understand the current week will see Harvcs Home L, conclusion at the Empire, after which it will be transferred bodily to the Panopticon, where I make no doubt its popularity will be as great as ever. ———— Speaking of the Panopticon they have several very strong attrac- tions at the St. Mary street house this week. Familia- rity. it hath been said, breeds cen- tempt, and this we mu;tsuppose is the case with Paula, handles serpents and alligators in a manner that would lead one to think they were the most docile and harmless cf and harmless cf creatures.* The Brothers Edgar are repeating some othei pantomime sue cesses. and are nightly feteb- ing the house down with their remarkably clever banjo perfor- mance. Mephisto does everything but tie himself in a com- plete knot, whilst a clever troupe of Japanese artistes give a performance ONE OF THF EDGARS. decidedly out of the common. Taken altogethes the Panopticon has several big attractions fchit week that- should draw geod attendances. "Pan] Kanvar," a* tke Royal, is a romanoe dealing with the days of the French Revolution, the never-to-be-forgotten ReigTi of Terror. It is a melodrama of exceptionally strong and thrill- ing interest, affording every scope for the exhi- bition of intense sensationalism. Mr. Ashley Page's rendering of the title ROLE is a perfect masterpiece of humour and passion, and in the second and third acts his powerf ul declamation is seen at its best. I should certainly recom- mend that no Jover of remarkably sensationsi I drama should miss seeing Paul Kauvar." The A Ihambra has an exceptionally strong THE SHEENY MAN. programme this week, and this fact is appreciated by the big- heuses that are nightly putting in an appearance at the West-gate- street house. Mr. Fred Masen, whose peculiarity is pour- trayed in thm accompanying sketch, is IUl im- personator of a most resourceful type. As the Y nishr gentlemaa wb o resides m Petticoat lane he makes a hit that is only excelled, when he renders the peculiarities- that are supposed to exist in the court- 'n ship of a- coster and his "donah." It is wonderful what a hold whistling has obta.ined upon the 'gods': possibly they appreciate it because they can do their little let in this respect. Mr. Mason's whistling serenade goes very well, but I fancy I have heard something very much like certain passages of it before. Mr. Horace Wheatley expresses some com- mendable sentiments about a lady. by name Miss O'Grady, of whom he tells us that. Her name's Kate O'Gradv, she's an Irish ladv. Fairer than the flowers that grow down in the dell; The best girl of any around all Kilkenny. She loves her Denny, and he loves his) l'ish girl. Very right and proper too. and it was only to be expected that the house would thunder with applause. The Sisters Flex-more and Misg Millie Vareoe, with songs, smiles, and dances, completely won the hearts of their audience,, whilst the Monetae paralysed the "gods" with some genuine knock-about business that shook the house and everyone in it. The Delevinea are a remarkably smart turn, whilst so are the Lisoombes, Regan and Ryan, and James an4 Rose Lenton. duettists and speciality artistes. 4^ "ow" si* a-\i is very trying, of ver.-ty tis so, and the. lurther 1" look'ahead tha blacfrer is the outlook. _P faith, but T cannot' even see a pint of four ale in the offing nor yet a sleepy man to play dominoes with'.
