THE COFFEE COOLER." Boxing with O'Brien at Pontypridd and Cardiff. The tour of Frank Craig- and liis party -n W.)les met on the whole with a -leoid-id nmount of success. "Maboa'.s Day" in (he Rhondda' wis certairly a happilv'-fU'i-'on duts, for crowds of people put in an appea-run e at tlw Bttdwr's ''ins Yar in the afternoO • tlie show nvcn being on ail hands voted an unqualified success. Proceeding's were commenced by the "Cooler" giving solos on the mouth-organ, a performance which elicited considerable applause from the Rhondda Yalleyites. Then came the serious business of the afternoon. Fred Isen.-ee and Mike .Sullivan opened the sparring entertain- ment with a three-round bout that, gave the utmost satisfaction. Isep.^ee has sparred with some of the best light-weight? in America, and proved in each case his claims to cleverness- The bout between him and Sullivan was of the most scientific order, and there was practi- cally nothing to choose between the men. Sulli- van, who had the pull ill the weight. was, per- haps, a trifle the smarter with his right. Red- mond Coleman and Collins provided another interesting encounter, whilst Forster and St. John were the lsist pair preceding the bout of the afternoon. The spar between O'Brien and the "Cooler" was certainly of the most scientific description, each of them hardly placing a glove on the other. THE COLONIAL-HALL, CARDIFF. The proceedings at the Colonial-hall, Ca-niiff, practically followed cut rhe program-is of the Pontypridd entertainment. All the boxers enumerated above rendered their services, although the show was opened by the musical entertainment of Oraig, whose solos en the mouth-organ and plantation dancing provoked the most, enthusiastic applause. The conclusion of the performance, was a two-round spar between O'Brien and the Cooler," followed by a similar number of rounds between the "Cooler" and his trainer, Professor Dennis Butler. Too much praise cannot be given to the last-mentioned gentleman, who, as master of the ceremonies, manoeuvred the crowds both at Pontypridd and Cardiff in the most happy fashion. Craig expressed the utmost satisfac- tion with his reception in the district, an-1 reiterated his intention of making^a fortnight's tour through the Rhondda Valley in :he near future.

FALL DOWN A LIFT. Sad Accident to a Cardiff Lad at the Ice Stores. On Monday afternoon a lad named David Fllycott, of 23, Havelock-street, Cardur. met with a shocking accident, which, it is feared, will have a fatal termination. The lad, who was in the employ of the Cardiff Fish and I'obltry Company, about two p.m. was ordered by his employer to carry some pheasants to the ice company's stores, in Penarth-road. He did not return, and inquiries were instituted as to his whereabouts, without result. The n.D rager of the fish poultry conpany at eight p.m., fearing that the lad had met with an accident, drove down to the Ice Company's premises, and, together with the storekeeper, commenced a search for the lad, who they subsequently found at the bottom of the lift well, which communicates with the several floors of the storage sheds- The poor fellow had evidently fallen a distance of about 30ft. When extri- cated it was found that both of his leg's were fractured, and that lie had received serious bodily injuries. ]-Jp"was conveyed to the Cardiff Infirmary and detained, ^.v \1 «• ■num.—I iiMqijMMBWWg.

SOUTH WALES CIRCUIT. Barristers to Take Silk in the Coming Year. Onr London correspondent writes :—I learn that Mr. John Ehlon Bmks and Mr. Thomas Terrell are likely to take silk in the eariy part of the coming year. Mr. Banks comes of a. great legal family. On his father's side lie is a descendant of the late Lord Eldon, whilst his mother was a daughter of a late Lord Chief Justice. He is extremely popular on circuit and oR6 of the handsomest men practising at the Bar. Mr Thomas Terrell will, I understand, devote him- self to patent work, a branch of the law which he has made peculiarly his own. The South Wales Circuit will be particularly strong' in leaders when this change is brought about, r.

COMMAND OF THE ARlVlY, Lord Wolseley to Succeed the Duke of Canibridge. The Exchange Telegraph Company learns that an official announcement of the retirement of the Commander-in-Chief may be expected as soon as the Treasury has sanctioned a special super- annuation allowance to his Royal Highness, in regard to which objections have been raised. It is not, however, anticipated that the Duke of Cambridge will leave the Horse Guards before next March. The Exchange Telegraph Company understands also that Lord Wtflseloy will become chief of the staff at the Army lieadquartors, Horse Guards, on the abolition of the office of Commander-in-Chief, and that Lord Roberts will bo appointed to the "com- mand of v J

NOVEMBER HEAVENS. Something More About the Receding Planet Mars. Most unfortunately the opnosit-ion of Mars was attended in Cardiff and South Wales with unfavourable weather; in fact, not for main- weeks have the skies been serene enough for satisfactory observation1: Let us hop1?, how- ever, that tha rest of the year will witness an improvement. Ma.rs is still well visi'Ve though receding" from the 8a.rlh and "cUing dailv gradually smaller. I append two sketches: the first a rough reproduction of a drawing by M. An tow. ad i, taken by aid of M. Flamma.rion's telescope, and showing a. number of canals. In this sketch the phase of the planet is strongly marked. The second sketch (taken, near opposition) is by an amateur telesoopist who lives: a. few miles out of Car- diff. and shows the same side of the planet as M. Antor.iadi's drawing. Mars will be near the Moon on the evening of November 11. As Mara is receding so Jupiter is taking up a fa-vourable position for the amateur, being well placed high above the eastern horizon by eleven o'clock in the evening. Jupiter's belts and four larger moons are easily seen with a comra-atively small telescope: not. so the fifth satellite, which is amongst the most difficult of telescopic obeots. Its discoverer, Professor Barnard, is still studying it attentively. From a host of careful measurements made with the Lick telescope he is confident that the. satellite is not brighter than a star of the thirteenth magn tilde, which, of-course, accounts for it lematininH- so long unknown to astronomers. Its sidereal period appears to be 11 h. 57min. 22?ec., and its diameter from north to south 75 miles, and at the equator 56 miles. Of the other planets mention must bp made of Mercury, which on the afternoon of the ]0:h passes as a, small black dot across the disc of the sun. Unfortunateiy. the phenomenon only commences in this neighbourhood half an hour or so before sunset; but in America it can be excellently oœerved. The Moon is full on the 13th: new on the 27th. The annml meeting of the British Astrono- mical Association, the leading amateur scciety Britain, was held a few vs ago, whew Mr. E. Walter Maunder (of Greenwich Observatory) was elected to the presidential chair. The society has 879 members, eleven of whom a.re resident in Wales. Many provincial towns have astronomical societies, some of the larger of which are affi- liated to t-hs* B.A.A. Several local amateurs and others have suggested the formation of such a society at Cardiff- and those who would care to identify themselves with the movement are requested to communicate with the writer, at 41, Hamilton-street.

I PICTURES ON VIEW, Continued Success of the Exhibition at Cardiff. The public are this year appreciating the exhibition in the Queen-street-hall, Cardiff, by attending in large numbers- On Saturday the gallery was crowded from morning till night. On Friday the members of the Cardiff Photo- graphic Society attended at the invitation of the. Committee, and were entertained with light refreshments, and a most enjoyable evening was spent. The committee also issued invitations to the nurses of the infirmary and other local in- stitutions, and these ladies expressed themselves much pleased with the opportunity thus afforded them. The drawing for the art union prizes will take place to-morrow (Wednesday), aud the exhibition will close on Saturday.

I MASTER OF THE TEMPLE. Canen Aiuger Pays Tribute to the Dean of Uandaff. There was a crowded congregation at the Temple Church the other morning (says a London correspondent) to welsome Canon Amger on his first appearaj.ee a* Master of the Temple. He delivered an eloquent sermon on the power of the pulpit, and at the close paid a touching tribute to Dean Yaugllan and his 25 years' servioe in that place. Speaking of the late Masters intel- lectual attainments, Canon Ainger referred t,) his scholarship, his mastery of the Greek Testament, his unfailing freshness of thought and treatment, and his euphonistio graep, re- calling his far-off relative and namesake Henry Vaughan. In dealing with his spiri tnal gifts attention was called to Dr. Vaughan 's deep understanding of- the human heart. Ins singular power to read the con- science. and his moderation, which last, said Canon Ainger, incurred the penalty—if penalty it were—that all extreme men passed, iightly by and no party journal ever spoke the applauding word. But there was f-ompensa. mm even for the worn of the relvdoas news- paper m the knowledge that thousands and hundreds of thousands of homely and unuon- troversial lives had been purified by the preacher's winged words.

ASHMEAD BARTLETT To Address a Gathering at the Cardiff Royal Hotel. A smoking concert, under the auspices of the Cardiff Central Conservative Association, has been arranged to take place at the Royal Hotel, Cardiff, to-morrow (Wednesday). Sir E. Ash- mead Bartlett, late Civil Lord of the Admiralty, will attend, and. in his speech, will deal mainly with foreign affairs and trade. Mr. Maclean (the Conservative candidate), who was expected to be present, will, unfortunately, be prevented from attending by unavoidable circumstances, but the ohair will be taken by Mr. Lascelles Carr. Tickets may be obtained from Mr. Waddington or any of the officials of the Conservative Association. All the Con- servative candidates at the municipal election and Conservative members of the council will be present.

REV. E. W. SHEPHERD. Ill-health Forces Him to Resign the Curacy of St. Andrew's. We regret to announce the serious indisposi- tion of the Rev. E. W. Shepherd. M.A., senior curate of St. Andrew's, Cardiff. The rev. gentleman is suffering from congestion of the throat, coupled with hemorrhage, but, notwith- standing these complications, Mr. Shepherd continued his duties up to a few da.vs ago, when he broke down altogether. His medical attendant is of opinion that there will always be a danger of hemorrhage returning should he again overstrain his voice, and, as a con- c I I sequence, Mr. Shepherd has intimated his in- tention of resigning his position, and of seek- ;l Jess onerous sphere of labour. Although Mr. Shepherd has been in Cardiff but a short time, he has made many friends, and ins det-erni]-ia.t;on will cause much, regret not only to members of the St. Andrew's con- gregation, but to all ranks and conditions of men.

Smart Sherlock Holmes, t DR. DOYLE'S DETECTIVE REDIVIVUS. "Van Ciupper" Telis How He Recovered the "Swag" in a Welsh Jewel Robbery. When I entered the club-room a gentleman in the far corner raised his head from the paper he was reading, and glanced quickly at me. His peculiar facial expression was fami- liar to me, and I knew the man in an instant. It was Sherlock Holmes, looking as shrewd and as pleasant and as full of quiet energy as ever. "Why, Holmes, old fellow," I reanarked, when our formal greeting was over, "I thought you were dead. Didn't Dovle kill you ait-r all?" "Truth of it is," said Holmes, with a good- humoured twinkle in his eye: "he got a bit tired of writing up my experiences month after month, and he told me he was going to kill me. I gave Doyle full discretion in the matter, and he made me fall over a precipice. I did have a nasty fall, it is true, but I wasn't absolutely killed. I have often told you I was a wonder- ful amateur trapezist in college, and my ape- like agility served me in good stead on this occasion. I caught hold of the branch of a tree. This broke my fall, and I managed to clamber down the rocks to a plaoe of safetv." "And what brings you into South Wales?" I asked him. This is a return visit. I came down here some months ago to unrSiel the Penarth Gorilla Mystery, and did so within a few hours, al. though the public never knew whom to thank for the elucidation of that mystery. Your chief has some good wine avid cigars at Cwrt-y- vil," continued Holmes, his face lighting up ies with pleasant memories, "and we spent two or three jolly evenings together." "To what interesting circumstance are we in- debted for this, your second visit?" I in- quired. "I have been speeding a rather long holiday in North and South Wales," replied Holmes, and have just finished a little job which has not only brought me credit but also enabled nie to pay off an old score." Ha, ha. said I, smelling ''com- 'Ljusf the very thing. I'm out for the evening, and nothing would delight me more than to have one of those inimitable yarns of yours. Tell me ail about it, Holmes. I'm sure the story will be worth hearing." .TVell, 'as I've also got the evening to so through somehow, I don't mind if I do," said H.o.Lm.os, evideautiy forgetting Siai I wa7; a newspaper man. Then, taking a cigarette out of his well-stocked case, he slowly lit it, and, settling himself comfortably in his cosy arm chair, he began. "'Perhaps I ought to explain to you at the beginning tliast. itihe d-etocive force of the kingdom is. to use a vulgar expression, 'dead nuts on me, and you will, therefore, not too ■'ur'-irisvd wlcr. I t«li you. a recom- muend-aitioo! aasjdti by\ a Welsh ir-iember Parliament to a Welsh head-constable that I should be engaged to unravel the mystery of a big jewel robbery some time ago in the Principality was rejected in a. manner that I considered] to .he rudfc and. offensive), the: terms of the letter written by the head- constable to the M.P. bein,g that I might be all very well in the pages of the 'Strand Magazine,' but they were not going to en- trust the unravelling of an important matter like that of a big jewel robbery in every- day life to an amateur. 'An Amateur,' fancy that! Sherlock Holmes an amateur! I am not revengeful as a general thing, Ciupper, but I felt the rebuff keenly, and I registered a vow, in the prc. ence of my friend Doyle, who was dining v. ith me when the M.P. sent me the liead-constable's letter, that ere many months had parsed I would compel that head-con,stable to publicly pay tribute even to my 'amateurish' abilities. I have had my revenge, and feel peaceful, calm, and happy when I think of it. This was, how it came about. A second robbery :1.: place from a. silversmith's shop, and about £ 2j,000 worth of jewellery was found' M have been taken away by the thieves, of j:1 whose whereabouts the police, in spite of most strenuous efforts, could not obtain the slightest clue. There was immediately a great huuoub among the people of the town where the robbery took plaoe, and public meetings were held at which reflections were made upon the efficiency of the police force, as this vas the second occasion on which the burglars had gone undetected. While this hubbub was at its heigiht I wrote the liead-constable offering him my services, and making the only condition of their acceptance an undertaking from him that, in the event of my bringing the thieves to justice or recovering the booty,, he ,should publicly acknowledge my success. He agreed to the terms, and I came Úmn1 to S by the next train. I immediately proceeded to the police-station, got all the detectives before me. and, having liea-rd their stories, which were. I may remark, lamentably bald, I turned to the head-constable and said, You have hitherto been sceptical of my smart- ness as a private detective, and you have ac- cepted my services eight days after the bur- glary has been committed. During that time you have had no trace or clue of either the thieves or the missing articles. Therefore, to you the task I am undertaking seem's hopeless. But Sherlock Holmes lias never yet completely failed, and when lie lays his head upon t.he pillow to-night it will be with the conscious- ness that he has met with some measure of success.' The head-ca:istable gazed in ore- -J dulously at me, and the faces of the j wore sarcastic expressions. 'I see, vou th.nk I I am fooling you,' I said; 'but Sherlock Holmes has a reputation and he is prepared to "tand or fall by what he has said.' T warned to make the thing as mysterious as possible, for my own prestige's sake, and extracted a promise from the head-constable not to ques- tion me as to my methods of work if I suc- ceeded in my undertaking. I then left the police office. and mingled with the crowd ;a.. tin2 public street. I had arranged to return to the police-station at midnight, and the clock was just striking twelve when I entered the 'iead-constable's sanctorum- 'Of course, you have discovered the thieves and recovered the booty?' remarked the head-constable, with a tinge of sarcasm in his voice. 'I have re- covered the booty.' I replied dryly: 'but the thieves, although discovered, are not- li1-el. to be caught yet awhile. To cut a long- story short, I produced the whole of the stolen jewellery, which was returned to. its owner. With reference to the thieTøs, I convinced the liead-constable that there was no doubt about I their having- managed to pass right un or the noses of the police, and to reach New York in safety. The recovery of the stolen property was regarded bv the public as a big achieve- ment, and my revenge was completed. The h?ad-constable came down handsomely, for. in his letter to me, which will in d'e o;:urse be nubh'Utd in the dailv journals, h- not onlv gives me credit for what I succeeded in doing, but refers to me a. the smartest detective in the United Kingdom. Holmes having finished the narrative, leaned back in his chair, a.nd. wrinkling his brow with a self-satisfied air. 1wg"n rolling another cig»> J rette. -8| His case was, as already intimated, well flocked, but he "rolled" a cigarette, because he used to do so in the "Strand Magazine."

For heavens saKe, relieve my suspense d toll me how did you manage to recover the stolen property so quicklv.: J°I man." replied Holmes, with a forced, laugh, "as I have retired' from 'onblic hfe since .Doyle got tired of me.
