CARDIFF ROYAL HOTEL,
CARDIFF ROYAL HOTEL, An Interesting Conversation with Manager dudah. There ars few provincial towns which are so well served as Cardiff in the matter of hotel accommodation. The enterprise which is characteristic of the Welsh Chicago is seen in every direction, and the new buildings which have been constructed during the last five or six years aro creditable to any town in the United Kingdom. It was in this direction that a conversation which one of our reporters had with Mr. Judah, manager of the Royal Hotel, turned the other day, and, pressed to give some information as to the development of the -hotel business, Mr. Judah at length con- sented to give his impressions of Cardiff, and the business with which he is connected. Lead- ing the way round the most important parts of the Royal, Mr. Judah said"Since the completion of the new portion, the Koyal is undoubtedly the largest hotel in this part of Wales. You see, there has been an addition of 60 rooms and a large banqueting-hall. I have some semti private rooms which are often requisitioned for wedding breakfasts and petit dinners." "What number of rooms have you alto- gether?" "Close upon 120 sitting-rooms and bed- rooms which we can let. We can easily accom- modate 200; guests." Before going further Mr. Judah conducted our representative over the new part of the hotel. The banqueting-hall, which is now used as a coffee-room, is one of the finest tc be found in the provinces. The walls, lined with carved oak surmounted by Japanese lincrusta, give a warm and comfortable appearance to the room, while the glass, both in the windows and doors, is richly painted. The old com- mercial-room on the ground floor has become the smoking-room, and the old coffcc-room on the first floor the commercial-room. These changes have been appreciated, and the coffee- room is one of the best in the district. Then our representative was conducted to a semi- private suite of apartments, in which there are a billiard-room and smoking-room suitable for a commercial club, which is in process of formation. Both the old and new parlours of the Royal have been furnished by Messrs. Maple and Son, of London, and it goes with- out saying, if we may be permitted to uso so hackneyed a phrase, that the very best material has been sup- plied. The extensions and decorations have cost the company something like £ 50,000, and no money has been spared to make the hotel one of the best in the provinces. The extensive cellars and kitchens are well ven- tilated, and ample arrangements have been made to prevent the spread of fire. There is in the roof a supply tank capable of hold- ing some 8,000 gallons. Water buckets are placed in convenient positions on all the floors, and fire escapes are also provided. The extension is fireproof throughout, and in order to minimise the danger in this respect, the introduction of electric light is under consideration. Mr. Judah has introduced some very ex- cellent improvements in the hotel. A lunicheoin 'is served from one to three at Is. 6d. to 2s. 6d., and a table d'hote from six to eight at a very reasonable price. The manager's intention is, to introduce the Lon- don system in Cardiff, and enable people to entertain their friends without going to the trouble of providing for them at home. Mr. Judah is evidently well qualified for the position which he occupies. In answer to a. few questions put to him he said: — "I started in" the business when, I was four- teen, a.nd for two years had a, good training in the cellars in France. I also served a three years' apprenticeship in kitchens, and after- wards had a erood training in the Restaurant de France in Paris." This experience gave Mr. Judah an insight into hotel and restaurant work which well dualities him for the position he now holds. But since his novitiate he has been in the Army and Navy Club, London, the Royal Hotei, Blackfriars, and the Midland Railway Hotel and Refreshment-rooms, St. Pa-ncras, Derbv. and Normanton. lie was sub-manager of the Grand Hotel, Scarborough, far two years, and deputy-mall:tg-er of the Victoria Hotel. London, for nearly seven years. Mr. Judah's appointment as manager of the Royal Hotel, Cardiff, has proved satisfactory, noif only to the company, but to the visitors to the hotel, among whom lie has made many friends. At the Hotel Victoria, in Northumberland)- avenue, which is capable of accommodating- 550 guests, Mr. Judah was captain of the fire bri- gade.. and, from ;wha,t we have heard, was popular all round.

PRINCE OF WALES AT RHYL. 'A Disappointment for the People of North V/ales. The Prince of Wales, in response to an appli- cation by the Rhyl Improvement Commissioners, has stated through Sir Francis Knollys that, as he was unfortunately prevented from declaring the new marine lake there open, he much regrets he is unable to give the desired special permis- sion to make use of the word "Royal" in naming it. This rests entirely with the Queen, and application should be made to her Majesty through the Home Secretary, but the Prince has no objection to the lake being styled Prince of Wales Marine Lake."

"THE MANXMAN."I
"THE MANXMAN." I Mr. Wilson Barrett's New Play to be Produced at Cardiff. During the week ending on October 20 the eminent author-actor, Mr. Wilson, Barrett, and his celebrated company will appear at Cardiff in his latest and greatest success, "The Manxman." This powerful play has been dramatised by Mr. Wilson Barrett from Hall Caine's successful novel of the same name. It is spoken of as the most powerful native drama, that h'as been produced since "The Silver King," to which it is arfcistically superior. The material provided by Mr. Haili Caine is rich and abundant, but the work has been adapted to the stage by Mr. Wilson Barrett with a, masterly giaep of effect. The story itself bears traces of having- been written..with a view of its transformation into \» play. It is charged with dramatic effect fvcjii__J&asst te- tfc. As iho A.r¥.J;f tv.a i (xjusins and a high-spirited Manx girl. Philip Christian is the gTandson of the Deemster of the island. His father had been cast out of the Deemster J home for an honourable but otherwise foolish marriage, and died of a broken heart. The cam of Philip was under- taken by his aunt. He was liberally educated and brought up in refinement with a view to his recovering the status in the island which his father had lost. Pete Quiliiam, his cousin, is the natural son of Philip's uncle, who had supplanted, his father in the suc- cession to the family' estates. He has been reared amid the mast unpromising surround- ings, and is a rough, uneducated farm lad, but the gift of a generous heart and a frank and noble nature leach, to a close comrade- ship between him and his cousin. Pete falls in love with Kate Cregeen, the daughter of his employer, an avaricious and sancti- monions Calvinist, and Philip is smitten by a similar passion. Pete, however, is first in the field, and draws early upon the generosity of his cofusiu. by begging him to intercede with old Caisar Cregeen on his behalf. Csesar scouts the idea. Hid a matter of money. When the..play opens Pete is about to sail for the Kimberley diamond fields to make a fortune. He bids Kate good-bye a.nd charges Philip to take care of her after a fashion which it appears is common, in the Isle of Man. When, five years later, Pete returns with a fortune he finds his sweetheart and her guar- dia.n in an agony of alarm. A report had reached lbeiii that Pete had been killed, and presuming on this doubtful intelligence they had made love to one another in earnest. The denouement is full of sensational inci- dent and pathos, and cannot fail to win the braathless attention of the audience. The play ought to prove a powerful draw in Cardiff.
CARDIFF HARBOUR TRUST.
CARDIFF HARBOUR TRUST. A Ratepayer's Protest Against the Proposal. TO THE EDITOR OF THE !< EVENING EXPRESS* Sir,—I am informed that the terms on which Mr. Hedley has been engaged as expert in con- nection with the ha-rbour trust scheme are as follow: —Six hundred pounds for his work in investigating the condition of the various pro- perties proposed to be acquired, and J35,000 if the scheme goes through. I liaven't a word to say in reference to Mr. Hedley personally. He is pre-eminent as a. valuer, and a safer guide in 'I a matter of this description the corporation could nol possibly get- But I want to know' if it is wise on the part of the corporation to be so free with the ratepayers' money when, as it seems to me, the harbour trust idea has but the remotest chance of becoming a practical movement. We have been groping too jrnuch in the dark, and we ought to ba told plainly, and at once, how we stand. The vital prin- ciple enunciated by the corporation, that is to say, the only principle upon which the scheme can proceed, is that- th-e various properties should be acquired at a price on which the net average of the past three years, would show a return of 4 per cent. Will Councillor JohiMton. tell the public frankly whether this principle has been accepted by tne Bute Docks Company? If it has not, then the agreement between the cornoraition and Mr. Hedley is altogether unwarranted. To -s say the least, it is premature to launch out in such a reckless manner, and I am much mis- I taken if the town generally would have sanc- tioned the arrangement had the electors been fiven an opportunity of expressing their views, must, add, too. that I do not approve of the I methods adopted in pushing the scheme. There are far too ma.ny secret meetings, both in Lon- don and in Cardiff. If the corporation is serious, if it really means business, no harm whatever would be clone by dealing frankly with the rate- payers, who are, after all, the people to be considered. It is of the utmost importance that the corporation should secure the confidence of the public in prosecuting a scheme of this magnitude, and I am bound to admit that at the present moment we ars bewildered rather than enlightened. What reason was there, for instance, for keening quiet the terms of agreement between the corporation and Mr. Hedley?-r-I am, &c., RATEPAYER. Cardiff, Oct. 4.. lr.l!

CARDIFF EXHIBITION.
CARDIFF EXHIBITION. Lord Windsor to be Asked to Accept the Presidency. An adjourned meeting of the general council of the Cardiff Exhibition wa.s held on Thurs- day at the Town-hall, Cardiff, under the pre- sidency of the mayor (Councillor W. J. Trounce). It had been decided at the last meet that a deputation, consisting of the mayor and Alderman P. W. Carey. should wait upon Sir W. T. Lewis.in London, and the present meeting had been called to receive the report of the interview.—The Mayor said that in their interview Sir W. T. Lewis had stated that pressure of business preclude either Lord Bute or himself from accepting the presidency. Lord But-e. would be busily engaged in Scotland, and Sir William would also be tied to commercial matters for gome time to come: and jieciber of them, he said, woulci be fu 1 filling Itieir duty by accepting such a position and doing nothing more than simply standing as a, figurehead. At the same time Lord Bute li-ad suggested Lord Windsor as a, gentleman who would ably fill the presi- dential chair; and also that he (Lord Bute) would be disposed to place his castle at the service of the Prince of Wales should his Highness come down to open the exhibition. —A resolution was proposed by Mr. C. J. Jackson to the effect that before proceeding with the expense attendant upon the erection of the exhibition buildings and various other buildings a reply be received from Lord Windsor as to whether his lordship is willing to accept the presidency.—Upon, this resolution being carried, Mr. J. B. ferrier gave it aR his opinion that it was needless to proceed with the other item on the agenda. —A spirited discussion arose on this point, the matter being ultimately settled by an adjournment of the meeting pending Lord Windsor's answer.
ENGLISH M.P.'S FOR WALES.
ENGLISH M.P.'S FOR WALES. An Effective Protest in West Mon- mouthshire. Arrangements had been made by the West in Monmouthshire Liberal Executive for a meet- ing to be held at Rhymney on the 10th inst., when- Messrs. Wann-ington, M.P., and A. -T. Williams, M.P., were to attend. The local Liberals, however, have on more than one occasion aeked that a Welsh-Speaking M.P. should accompany Mr. Wannington, especially as Rhymeny is so thoroughly Welsh. Find ing, however, that no Welsh-speaking M.P. was to accompany the member for West Monmouthshire, the executive of the Liberal Association of Rhvmney unanimously declined to arrange a meeting, and decided to tele- graph Mr. Tom Hughes, the secretary to the West Monmouthshire Liberal Association, to that effect.

The lady, on taking a lighted candle to ascertain the cause of the noise, was seized by a burglar, who during the struggle hacked her severely with a knife a.nd stabbed her near the heart. A maidservant called the lady's two sisters, the only other occupants of the house, and jumped from the window, 15ft., in order to arouse the coachman at the lodge, and then ran for the police. When the police arrived the burglar had fled. Mrs- Aid worth, though very seriously, is not fatally, injured. The police are in pursuit of the bur- glar.

" How They Wed in India. .
How They Wed in India. LADIES NOT TO BE HAD FOR ASKING. An Interesting Story of a Nepalese Youth's Wooing of a Coy Maiden and the Sequel. A lady correspondent of the "Indian Daily Jtfews" writes :Some folks have an idea tlist the native of India is devoid of tenaer passions- md romantic attachment, the prevailing. notion being th^t their marriages are meroj business-Like arrangement^ arranged by thira1 parties, without those personally concerned; being consulted in the matter. Whatever his dusky brethren in other parts may be, the. Nepale-se of the Darjeeling Tea District is cer- tainly an exception to this rule, for he usually has a decided finger in the pie himself. Visitors to Darjeeling soon observe to what an extent the women of this interesting hill tribe ootr nvmbeT the men, which is accounted for Ii,y\ the fact that so many of the latter are tak«a*; away on Government expeditions, their powers- of endurance and ability of carrying extraordi- nary weights making them valuable for bUiih service. The women appear to be equally, strong and capable of the most wonderful exer- tions. Except for a few men in the engine houses, the coolies employed on the tea erftates, are all of the opposite sex. The men, findings themselves in the minority, and seeinff thab womenfolk abound, improve the opportunity by taking unto themselves a. couple of wives apiece, or more ? they, have the necessary coin to pay for tlw> luxury. The ladies axe not to be had for the asking, as might be supposed, and this brings me round to the line of thought on which I: be.^an. There comes to my mixid a littJe. romance which is quite as interesting as many a Western love story. A sturdy Nepalese youth from a distant garden had; talaen a violent fancy to a y-Aung woman working on the estate where I was spending III, holiday, but the maiden was c-cy, and though eha a-ooepted the offerings, such as a sheep or a goat, brought from time to time by her admirer, she yet declined to giv$any definite answer to his pleadings, a-nd, in fact, kept him dangling after her, and fooled him as thoroughly as any society belle, till finally her avaricious old, father csane to the rescue and declared his intention of using parental: authority provided 70 rupees were paid down in hard cash. This was promptly produced, being borrowed from an indulgent master,, but the wary lover took the precaution of securing half a dosen stalwart fellows at the • same time and posting them in the forests. around. Next morning, when at breakfast,: we became aware of an unusual cfcattering among the women who were returning from, t&e early plucking, and oni inquiring heard that the foolish girl had been carried off in triumph. by her desperate admirer and his friends. Thfe Kepalese fluhlds littfe ^of^wife to- a, tree and thrashing her soundly should she happen to displease his lordship. I knew of. a woman who made a bad bargain by ex- changing a fairly good husband for one who treated her after this fashion, and when ques- tioned about it she replied unhesitatingly: that lie made her drunk and then persuaded! her to marry him. To go back to my heroine,, it would appear that she belonged to an attrac- tive family, for scarcely had the excitement of her abduction subsided when another suitor: turned up for her sister, but in this case the; bride being "willin' we had the pleasure of seeing and hearing a portion of the wedding festivities; and then she also vanished from the scene of her daily toil, and the planter was, left lamenting the loss of two good pluckers. But the worst was not over, for a few daya later, one of his best masculine "hands" mys- teriously disappeared, accompanied by yet another coolie woman, and the funny part was that, though she had forsaken her own husband, he had taken one of his wives along! It would be hard to condemn an unenlightened people for a state of affairs looked upon as a national custom, the King of Nepaul being a second Solomon himself, not as to wisdom exactly, but as regards the number of ladies in his household.
HISTORY OF THE KYMRY.
HISTORY OF THE KYMRY. Lecture by Professor Rhys to Liverpool Welshmen, The opening meeting of the tenth session of the Liverpool Welsh National Society was held on Wednesday, when Dr. Rir-liard Williams, chairman of the council, presided over a large attendance.—Professor John Rhys, M.A., LL.D. (Oxford) delivered the inaugural address, selecting as his subject the early his- tory of the Kymry- In the first part of his address, which was delivered in Welsh, Pro- fessor Rhys pointed to the nature of the sub- ject and the difficulties attending inquiry intc it, colling attention to the desultory and un- ccrneeted nature of the few facts recorded re- specting Britain by the, Greek and Latit authors of antiquity. The lecturer explained at the outset how he classified th-e Celtic naticns, commenting upon soma of the dis tinctions between Brythons and Goidels.i between Kymry and Irishmen- He -said the tendency of the last-named na-tions' was to entertain exaggerated ideas of the differences between them, and it must appear ludicrous to both. Gaelic, he explained, was no mom Welsh than English was High Dutch; in fact, the difference between them was very old, dating, in his opinion, from the time when the Celts came into the British Isles. He consi- dered that it followed that the Celts, coming here in two distinct nations oame probably at very different dates, and the question arose which nation came first-the ancestors of the Irish or the ancestors of the Welsh. lie had no difficulty in giving the priority of arrival to those who brought the Irish or Gaelic tongue here over those who introduced Brythonic or Welsh. But, though he supposed the Goidels to have reached Ireland through Britain, he was not- prepared to regard them ae having cleared out before the Brythons.
