HEATH AND SONS CARDIFF, pONTYPRIDD, AND ?U JL L ONDON, JpiANOFORTE AND Q EG AN J^/J-ERCHANTS. ?L&- (FROM SOU'l'U WALES DAILY NEWS, 9TH JANUARY, 1894.) "VERDICT OP Nun: HFW»R«D."—Under this title Messrs. R. J. Heath and SOBS, Queen-street, Cardiff, pianoforte makers, organ builders, and music ware- housemen, have collected an imposing array of testi- monials and Press opinions relating to the quality of the musical instruments suppiied by them. The firm is so well known in Cardiff, and, indeed, throughout South Wales and the West of England, that it is hardly necessary here to dwell upon its influence and commanding position. 'rhis collection of testimonials serves, however, to do something more than certify to the excellence of the instruments furnished by Messrs. Heath and Sons. It shows, in a sense, how steady is the growth among the general public of a desire for a knowledge of music, and how increasingly numerous, even in the homes of the working classes are manos, orcrane, and harmoniums. The great majority of the letters in this list relate to pianos sind while many of them have reference to most eostly instruments containing all the latest improve- ments, supplied to the well-to-do, the greater num- ber relate to serviceable instruments purchased for the homes of the wage-earning- portion of the community. This growing love for so refining an art as music is a most favourable sign. For though in the Principality music has for generations been the chief recreation of the people, it has for the most art been choral music in connection with churches and chapels that has occupied attention. Instru- mental music is now, however, receiving its fair s arc of attention, and all those in true sympathy with the art must trust that the movement will go steadily onward. These testimonials have been re- ceived from every quarter of the Principality, while not a few come from other portions of the United Kingdom, and some from South America, India, and other distant countries. All speak most favourably of Messrs. Heath's business methods as well its of their instruments. R. J. HEATH AND Soss INVITE INSPECTION. FULL ILLUSTRATED LISTS AND VERDICT POST FREE. 53407 E.

" Times" on Football.
Times" on Football. 0. -A SOME NEW AND STARTLING INFORMATION. A Bit About County Cricket and Why it has Hitherto Been Unsuecesful in South Wales. Fancy the "Times" going in for a long article on the past football season, devoting over half a column to it! Deary me, but how things do change! The "Thunderer," however, has some very sensible remarks in its article. Their opening remarks is a bit antiquated, perhaps; first they ask us to remember that we have experienced grand football weather, next, they convey the startling information that the Rugby Union have altered the value of a try from two points to three. They might have added that Queen Anne was dead. In dealing with the internationals (Rugby), they are rather formal, but a bit more to the point. They point out that Ireland's success stands out as the striking feature. Further, they add that the Irishmen's victory over Wales contained A great element of luck. They con- clude their remarks on this subject by saying that the last and most important of the inter- nationals was between England and Scotland. Why? Because it was England and Scotland, I presume, certainly not because it had any bearing on the question of the championship. Personally, I should have thought that the Irish-Welah match was a much morel important game, and one with great significance attached to its result. The cycling events at the Sophia Gardens to-day should prove fairly attractive, for most of the old faces are likely to be seen out. Met- calf, Thomas, Kennard, Michael, Sheen, Tor- rington, Sid Jenkins, Element, and others are all on the programme, and if they turn out we ought tot get a fairly good idea of how they are going this year, although, of course, the season is early, and the majority, will, no doubt, only be seen out for an) airing. If Sid Jenkins .in anything like his old form, I am prepared to see him run close for the championship this year. By the way, it appears very funny to see the number of the licence of each rid*?' on the programme. On that of to-day it has taken the place usually given to the rider's colours. The Jockeys, I understand, will have the honour of opening the season proper in Cardiff, for on Saturday next they will hold their annual sports in the Sophia Gardens. The list of entries is, I believe, an exceedingly good one, and we oan depend upon Mr. Young to give us some olose finishes in the cycling events. I have not seen any public announcements of the gathering, and if a success is wished for I should advise them to get their bills and adver- tisements out as soon as possible. I notice O'Brien has issued a challenge, £ 200 aside, for any of the middle-weight cham- pions, Pritchard preferred. Pritchard, it will be remembered, was the "artist" whom O'Brien was to have met when the Gardiffiaii went wrong in his trainrng. Oi'Brkai, by the way. in issuing his challenge, intimates that, failing a middle-weight, St. John can be accommodated for not less than JB200 aside. In conclusion, the Irishman wishes to return thanks to his London friends, and especially to Johnny Ben, jamin, of the New Inn, near Chepstow, and hie father, William Benjamin. The last mentioned, by the way, is the only man living who can claim the distinction of having fougnt The b- ld Tom Sayers. Apropos of O'Brien, a number of his South Wales friends who admired the pluck show by him in the last fight have determined on giving him a benefit. At present nothing de- finite has been arranged, but we shall hear more in the course of a few days. There seems to be no end to the idiotic attack made on athletics by Nonconformist ministers of religion. The Rev. Mr. Rees, speaking Penuel Chapel, Pontypridd, on Tuesday night, said:— Football was the dullest and most senseless of games the world had ever seen, and even an ape would not disgrace itself by seek- ing its pleasures in kicking a football." Such stuff and nonsense is utterly unworthy a minis- ter of the Gospel, who ought to be free from all narrow-brained bigotry. At any rate, thos who follow football and athletics in general may rest in ease, for attacks of this sort can do no more harm than bring down soorn and ridicule upon those who make them. The Barry Quoit Club intend forcing their wa.y to the front this season. At the annual meeting, held a day or two ago, Mr. W. Mein was elected president, supported by a strong list of vice-presidents. Mr. W. Martyn was chosen captain, with Messrs. E. J. Roberts and J. Sainsbury vice-captains, Mr. R. F. Illing worth secretary, Mr. Jesse Owen assistant sec- retary, Mr. R. Uwins treasurer, and a com- mittee. The fixture list up to the present in- cludes engagements with St. Fagan's, Mackin- tosh, Cardiff, and other clubs. With the cricket season so close upon us the question naturally arises What are we going to do for county bowlers? So far, Eldridge is again the only class bowler available. Credit is due to the county authorities for having done all in their power to try and discover some local talent, but, so far, their efforts have met with no success. If funds permitted the diffi- culty could be surmounted by looking up a couple of likely young pros., and making it worth their while to qualify for the county. This, in the face of the apathy of the public, is out of the question, so all that remains is to go on hoping that, a new race of local bowlers will spring up. One of the oldest cricketers in the county, and one who knows as much about the game as one here and there, says that if we could only drop upon a couple of good bowlers, one fast and the other medium, Glamorganshire would immediately take a prominent posVion among the second-class counties. Once among the second class counties, time, money, and energy would soon work the improvement neces- sary to claim admittance to the ranks of the great inner circle of the cricketing counties. At the annual meeting of tihe Wenvoo Cricket Club the following officers were elected for the season:—President, Mr. W. W. Nell; vice-president, the Rev. G. H. Jenner, M.A.; Captain, 1st team, Mr. S. Robinson; vice- oaptain, Mr. T. C. Graham captain A team, Mr. W. Evans; hon. secretary and treasurer, Mr. W. P. Powell; committee, Messrs. J. P. Poole and Ernest Nell. The playing ground will be at the Watla. Fixtures have been arranged with the following clubs —First team: May 12, St. Junes' C.C., at Wenvoe; May 30, the Rev. G. H. Jenner's XI., at Wenvoe; June 9, Barry, at Wenvoe; June 16, St. Fagan's, at St. Fagan's: June 23, Whit- church, rut Whitchurch; August 18, St. Fagan's, at Wenvoe; September, 8, Whit- church, a.t Wenvoe.

CATERING FOR CARDiFFIANS.
CATERING FOR CARDiFFIANS. Some of the Coming Companies for the, Theatre Royal. Our London correspondent says: — I cajne across the genial lessee and manager of the Cardiff Theatre Royal as he was on his rounds preparing for the autumn season. There was a gratified smile on liis face as he approached me, and when I bad been favoured with a glance at his ercelhntly-c^rrpi'ed pocket-book, I saw as much reason for the smile as for the roasting of eggs. Cardiffiana ha.Te certainly great things in store during the months of August and September—in fact, from what I incidentally gleaned, other months, too. But the latest bookings are all stamped with wha.t Mr. Fletcher calls "the hall-mark of public approval." There are "The New Boy," now turning many away at the Vaude- ville; "Little Christopher Columbus, as bumptious as ever at the Lyric; "A Life of Pleasure," the Drury Lane success; Compton Comedy Company, Wilson Barrett and reper- toire, Cissie Graham's Triple Bill, "The Pro- digal Daughter," "The Gaiety Girl," still as bright and sparkling at the Princess of Wales' Theatre as ever; "Second Mrs. Tan- queray," "A Woman's Revenge," D'Oyly Cartes Repertoire Company, and "Utopia"— a list of attractions unrivalled by any other provincial theatre. Mr. Edward Fletcher is certainly deserving of the best patronage from the Cardiff public.
-?--" DYFED'S " ODE.
-?- DYFED'S ODE. Chicago Cymmrodori-on will Permit its Publieation. Welsh literati will be glad to leajn that "Dyfed" has secured permission from the Chicago Cymmrodorion to publish hiB prize ode on "Jesus of Nazareth" in his book of travels in the Holy Landj wtiidh is now going through the prass. The society, in granting "Dyfed's" request, has aoted very generously. Unfortu- nately, "Dyfed" has not got a duplicate copy of the ode sent in for competition, but he has telegraphed for the manuscript sent to America, and, if it is forwarded to him, will print it as it was submitted to the adjudicators, if, however, the competition MSS dces not reach him in time, he will use the original manuscript in his posooSbion, whioh e011taifu, nearly 3,000 lines. One condition of the Chicago competition was that the ode should not exceed 2,000 lines, so that hundreds of lines originally written had to be taken out to fulfil the requirements of the adjudicators. Without the manuscript from An) erica "Dyfed" will be unable to tell which were the lines out out, and consequently cannot vouch that every line in the publi-hed ode will be the same as in the competition copy. How- ever, in cutting it down to 2,000 lines, he will endeavour to do so as near as he can from memory to the copy sent to the adjudicators, and his task is rendered all the easier by the fact that the excisions will nearly all come in the last chapter. Practically, therefore, the published ode will be identical with the one aent across the Atlantic, even if the eisteddfod j committee refuse the author to see his succesful copy. ,.4 _.?-?-?-
THE MAY HEAVENS.
THE MAY HEAVENS. Ringed Saturn is Still in the Ascen- dant. The planetary heavens this aionth are largely devoid of interest, neith 3r Venus, Mars, nor Jupiter being conspicuous. To Jupiter we must bid good-bye for some months, for he will soon be in conjunction with the sun, and it will be late in the autumn before he is again an evening- star. For Mars, too, we must wait until the early autumn, whilst Venus will not again glorify the evening heavens till 1895. Mercury will be an evening star the last week in May, and near Jupiter and Aldebaraai respectively. But for his south declination Saturn would be excellently well-placed this month, situated as he is in the constellation Virgo and crossing the meridian between nine and ten o'clock. He is not far from the bright star Spioa., with which he affords an interesting comparison but he is so low down that the observer, especially if he live in town, will hardly be able to secure delicate observations of his surface and opening rings, unless on evenings of exceptionally good definition, though this remark applies with much less force to two-inch or threc-inch telescopes, which are but little affected by atmospheric tremors. Uranus is in opposition on tlii" 3rd, but much worse placed even than Saturn he is near the star alpha Librae, and may, with care, be thus identified. The moon is new on the 5th and full on the 19th she occuVts during the month De conspicuous stars. The sun rises on the 1st at 4.34, setting at 7.20, and on the 31st at 3.51, setting at 8.3.

!" MR. CARR IS RIGHT."
MR. CARR IS RIGHT." "Idriswyn" nowdains in a Very Heated I Controversy. In his Welsh notes in the "News of the Week" "Idriswyn" says:—The Rev. W. Spur- g&on, of Cardiff, draws attention to what Mr. Carr said in an after-dinner speech at the Royal Hotel, namely, that if the Great Prophet were in the town he would join them that evening. The rev. gentleman says that Mr. Oarr never ;«ade a g.eaoer mistake. It' Mr. Carr believed that the gentlemen who sat down to that dinner -'■although sinners—were honest and. sincere, and open to conviction, he was right in saying that if the Great Master was in the town he would be among the oompany. If Mr. Spur- geon believes that their meeting at an hotel, and being publicans, a sufficient reason to pre- vent Jesus from joining them, he is making a great mistake. The attachment of Jesus of Nazareth to this class of people was proverbial. His enemies called Him the "friend of publicans and sinners." There is no account of his having associated with the preachers and deacons (the Pharisees and scribesV It is true that they came to Him, to tempt and ensnare Him; and it was they who put Him to death. Mr. Carr is perfectly right—the Propjhet of Nazareth mixed freely during His life with all sorts and conditions of men, except the religious hypo- crites. He never uttered an unkind word to non-professors ("dynion o'r 'byd'"), but pro- claimed terrible woes upon religious professors glous Prot' for their hypocrisy and narrowness. He charged them with being murderers, tormentors of the poor, and eating up widows' homes. And if Christ came to Cardiff on a Satur- day night, he would probably prefer going to the "Royal" than to Wood-street Chapel! We don't know, it is true; but we do know that hypocritical fanatics and ostentatious for- malists were the class whom He most disliked, and that He preferred the society of publicans and sinners, from whom He chose all of His disciples—men of the world—and not one fnou, the Jewish Church! Mr. Spurgeon is treading forbidden ground when saying that Jesus Christ would not visit the Royal Hotel, if now on earth, for it was to honest people He liked to preach. The churches and chapels would be too bigoted to listen to Him, and. would pro- bably get the policeman to turn Him out; but the frequenters of the Royal would be the readiest to hear Him. Wood-street people would be too perfect, too sound ("rhy iach"), to need the aid of the physician, whilst the publi- cans at the Royal would listen to Him with pleasure. The Prophet of Nazareth mixed freely with all classes of persons except hypo- crites. Indeed, if he were to turn into Wood street (Thapel some Saturday night I believe He would turn everybody out; and I am certain of what he would do with the congregation who were acting "Sir John Barleycorn" in a chapel at Tongwynlais—He would make a whip of small oords and drive them out headlong.
A WELSH INDIAN CHIEF.
A WELSH INDIAN CHIEF. Dr. Joseph Parry's Brother as a Chippewaian. A Welshman from Utica. who was travelling on the shores of Lake Superior in 1868 found himself one day in the midst of the Chippewa. Indians, and, to his surprise, one of the leading men could speak Welsh fluently. The Welsh- man was delighted at tha thought that at last he bad found the long-lost descendants of Madog, eon of Owain Gwynedd, King of North Wales in the twelfth century, who, it is alleged, discovered America hundreds of years before Columbus. To his hitter disappointment, according to his own words, he found that the Indian chief was no other than Mr. John Parry, brother to Dr. Joseph Pairy, the Welsh com- poser.

The Legend of the Tree, >
The Legend of the Tree, > A STORY OF THE EARL* AMERICAN SETTLERS. A Gruesome Midnight Reminder of hot an Indian War of Extermination Began In a desolate spot abouk a mile from de town of Pittsburgh, in Amerioa, stands a giant5 chestnut tree that has withstood the storms ) of a century, Near by on the slope of the hillside is a little grave overgrown with briars and brambles, indistinguishable but for the crumbling headstoDe which marks the place where lie the remains of one who lived in tha dim years of the past when Pittsburg was but a frontier parading post, and bears and wolves amd Indians prowled through the forest paths, which have since become the streets of the city. On the headstone, broken and desei. crated by the relic hunter, is still discernible the faint tracery of an epitaph, of which tilif much can be made out: JOSEPH LUCAS, son of J. B. C. and ANSIBINA LUCAS, Aged 7 years. 1795. The grave and the headstone remain as reminders of a blody period in the city's early history, and re-call to mind a story—half trum, half legend—told to children, to frighten them into obedience. At the clOSt, of the Revolutionary War there was a small settlement near by. Not far off was the I wigwam village of a tribe of Indians, tiha tattered remnants of the Delawares, who had been conquered years before by the Iroquois, Near was the home of another tribe of Indians* In the white settlement was the Lucas family. The settlers were on friendly terms with tlX Indians, and little Joe Lucas was a favourita with Milikiki, the queen of the tribe. Aw>rd« ing to the legend he was as much at home in the Indian wigwam as in his father's cabin. The dusky queen, tradition æ,:ïiS, was fond of chestnuts, and one day in the fall of the year Joe wandered away into the forest to whew he knew them was a big chestnut tree, whose pendent boughs were heavy with the golden brown burrs. He soon had a big heap of tim nuts, and was just starting to climb up th< tree to give it a last shake, when, with. rescrundiog war-whoop, six Indian wamoct broke througfti the forest and surrounded him f A few minutes later his scalp was hanging from the trunk of the tree, and beneath it. was a, defiance to Queen Mililuki's tribe. The soalp was found the next day, and the body* buried near by and a tom:bstone erected oser the grave. Immediatly the Indian braves and white settieis took the warpath for revongja*' The war lasted all through the winter and into the spring. The war ended early in thw summer, because there were none left but oiif 1 men and woman to carry it "1, and a few- years later a51 traces of both tribes disappeared,. The first three nights of the full moon, on the stroke of twelve, if persons who ha.VJt. chauced that way are to be believed, a grue- some sight may be seen under the oM chcstnsft tree. First there. is a soft ras&iafer arsusug taal, bushes that ewer thé grave, then all is stalk A moment later iattle Joe appears at the foofe of the tree and begins the ascent, when AM Indian war-whoop, that froze the blood ÏIt (his veins 100 years ago, >s again heard, ami dusky forms glide out from the shadow and then disappear, leaving in the pale light of the moon a glistening scalp transfixed with a tomahawk. That is the story toki to-dayh and the tree is still there to prove it.
MITCHELL V. PRiCE.
MITCHELL V. PRiCE. A Letter from the Defendanfl Uncle. TO THE IDfTOR OF THE EVENING EXPRESS. Sir,—From a oopy of a paper re- ceived by me yesterday (Sunday) morning I find that my name lwJ been most unjustifiably and unwarrantably mixed up in a. recent breach of promise caae tried on Friday in the Court, of the Under Sheriff of London, in which I am alleged to have acted in a disgraceful, shameful, and cruel manner by sending a false telegram. As these statements are calculated to do me infinite. ? harm, I must ask you, in justice to me, t<t publish the following statements in as publiou a manner as yo« have printed the report of the proceedings at the trial. t I am an uncle of the defendant^ and I knew thai he had been1 engaged to be married, and that" his engagement had been broken off. That lit all I knew of the matter. I never knew tha* any legal or other proceedings were in progTHS* or "had been commenced against him by tha plaintiff. I never received any letter from tha' i plantiff. I never wrote, assisted to write, sent,' or knew anything about the telegTam which it is alleged was received in answer to a letter writter. to me by the plaintiff, and I nevee received any letter in reply from the plaintiil. My name appears to have been mi sed up, with that of an uncle of the defendant who is no relation of mine, and who lives in Gla- morganshire, where I neither live nor own land, though whether the defendant nas equally taken his name in vain as well as mine 1 di not know. though it would appear from th( following letter that he has. I 'ippend exuracrt from a letter received y&sterdav mn.n- ing Iron the defendant, without any usmmum- 0I1:1 j(Æ from me:- ou have, doubtlessly, either seen 01 iMSArdJ ..f the lamentable ending of my trip to CaiTOh The action has been on for some time, but I had limped it would have never come IMJ co-vilt. so I never mentioned it to you, but as they w mlrl not settle under Li,000 •.h«-re w nothing for it. Unfortunately, ? nad • men- tioned your name in some of my correspondence* with the plaintiff, and she assumed that the telegram which I sent had been sent by you, hence there is some confusion in the newspaper reports. I said it had been sent by Edwin Price, and they have, I much regret, mixed up the two uncles. It is most difficult to explain by letter, but I hope soon to see vov and give you a personal explanation. I trust you will insert this in a, prominent place in your next issue.—I am, &c., ROWEL J.
