v Feathers and Fluff
v Feathers and Fluff [BY 'AUTOLYCUS."] Father Ignatius is reported to have said that the Dean of Ripon was a blank Atheist. I have referred t44e phrase to Bill Banter, but ho says the only man who cau fill that "blank" is M'Guffin. If ever a Jew be seen again in the defen- dant's box of our police-courts or county-courts Cardiffians will think of the words of the Chief Rabbi: "No one can be called a good Jew v?ho is not upright, truthful, straightforward, kind, and gentle in all his dealings"; and also of those of Colonel Golds mid, who, speskmg of the equality of races in Great Britain, said that "The Jew who dishonoured his name in this country deserved to be punished twenty times more than a Christian, because he brought dis- honour on a name that should be Kpotless. It is surprising how few Israelitiee make their way into our prisons, and if they visit the county-courts it is generally in the role of plain- tiff. Whilst on the point, I might mention that there is a man in this office who is reported to have once outdone a Jew, and he is greatly revered accordingly. Goldsmiths and jewellers have been doing well out of Cardiff during the last we?k. Thtre has been a tremendous run on silver trowels and golden keys, and the way in which clubs, bazaars, baths, and exhibitions are being opened—to say nothing of synagogue and chape. foundation-stone laying—lead one to suppose that Cardiff is on the point of opening and running the whole universe. Alderman Carey haa a hot time of it last year, but it is nothing to what Lord Windsor is going through, whilst Mr. J. M. Maclean has probably been more in demand during the nine months he has represented is than has ever been any pieceding member for the Cardiff Boroughs in a like period. If these club-opening cere- monies come in much thicker, Mr. Maclean v- ill soon want a deputy. The baths have been opened, and the first swim has been swum. As everyone knows who is interested in the natatorial art, there is no town more backward in it than Cardiff, but the nucleus of what promises to be a strong club has been formed, and in a short time it may safely be expected that swimming galas will be arranged. Let every excuse be made for the corporation, the fact is still apparent that the baths are ridiculously small, and those who have the true interests of swimming at heart will have to work under tremendous difficulties. Not one of the baths is big enough for any proper aquatic display; regu- lation races will have to be swum in a very piecemeal fashion, and the accommodation for onlookers is of a very poor description. How- ever, Cardiff "swimmists" will have to make the best of them, and when the next baths are built it is to be hoped that the representation3 of those who know something of swimming I and its requirements will be attended to. A Roath correspondent, who apparently objects to my little joke about the adver- tisement asking for a servant girl to sleep out, writes to point out a serious error in our morning contemporary, which stated that a certain artist had been "hung" for the seventh time. Dear, dear; how sad—I mean the ignoi ance on the part of the writer, who does not krow that it is an expression often used by artists and others, and who also is evi- dentiy unaware of the fact that if it had been the man who had undergone a gallows performance the word used would have been "hanged." Perhaps my friend would wonder greatiyat the following advertisement, taken from the '"Express" :—"Two naps for Satur- day real dead snips; send Is. quick for wire." For myselt one nap a day is suffi- cient, and I am not given to snips; the scissors and paste man will give me all I want; whilst before I buy wire on spec I want to know precisely how much and what quality I shall get for the shilling. It would be interest ing to know whlllher leap year advantages 'have been. claimed and ) taken advantage of by the ladies. I have only heard of one or two offers of marriage, and have seen one or two invitations to leap year dances- Despite the fact thaii, I have joined the ranks of perpetual bachelorhood, I have even received one of these latter myself. But, on the whole, I don't think tlib girls' jare making the most of their present advantages. A long communication which reaches me on, the subject, showing the many possibilities before the ladies at the present (time, induces me to touch upon it. It is pointed out to me that men' look after athletics more than after the ladies; iliar they regard married life as monotonous; and that women are content to go on waiting and watching, the independence of the day making it possible for them to do so. But, all ithe same, leap year, gays my correspon- dent, is a time when tbe bashful young man may be successfully wooed and made happy. I know naught of these matters myself, but if that be the case, I should say: Look alive, ladies, for the time is far spent, and' you won't get another chance like the present for eight years.

KILLED HIS SON.
KILLED HIS SON. AND AFTER ARREST THREW HIM- SELF OUT OF THE WINDOW. A few days ago ,h': bcdy of a young man, named Eugene Vasseur, a waiter, was found strangled ill the, wood1 at Vincennes. In- quiries resulted in the arrest on Tuesday of Ithe victim's father and a cousin named Boucher, The latter told an extraordinary story. He said that he applied to Vasbeur, sen., for a loar. of 3,000f., and the old iaan. promised him the money if he would assist him in get- ting rid of his son, who was "a great scoundrel." Boucher enticed the victim rio the wood, where Vasseur bounded out of the thicket and fell upon his son. like a tiger. To- gether they forced a rope over their victim's head, and pulled tight until he became black in the face. Vasseur acknowledged that this story was true, remarking, "What else could I do? He was a young scoundrel." On Wednesday afternoon Vasseur .succeeded in taking his guards by surprise, and threw himself out of the prison window, receiving I injuries from which he died shortly afterwards.

Cardiff Exhibition.
Cardiff Exhibition. PREPARING FOR THE OPENINGI CEREMONIES. The preparations for opening the Cardiff Ex. nibiiion are almost completed, and all the various works are being rapidly pushed' for- ward by aIJ. army of workmen, numbering many hundreds. Although all the exhibits wdl not be in position by Saturday, the promoters are thoroughly satisfied with the progress that has been made, and express the opinion that the Cardiff undertaking will compare favour- ably with any previous exhibition elsewhere on the opening day. Very little remains to be done, and that little can be accomplished with- out inconvenience or disappointment to the thousands of visitors who are expected on Saturday and Monday next. The main. approach to the exhibition—Park-place—ie quite en fete. Messrs. Riuhardson and Co. have erected a number of Venetian masts running from Queen- street to the main entrance to the ground, and from these will be hung festoons of bunting and streamers. A substantial carriage-way has been laid down, and even a cement pavement for the convenience of visitors. Flower beds have been designed close to the main entrance, and the general aspect of the approach is nob only pleasing but imposing. The showers of the past few days have done much to improve ihe Imperial Gardens, which have been planted with choice shrubs of all descriptions, and around the borders have been placed some thousands of fairy lamps, which will greatly contribute to the general cha.rm of the gardens. The handsome bandstand on the island at the commencement of the canal has been practically finished, and is being wired with an electric cable for illuminating purposes. A well-made cinder path has been constructed on each side of the canal .throughout its entire length, and provision has been made for lighting it with gas jets, thousands of which will extend in festoon shape from the starting point to the lake at the other end of the grounds. The cycle track, which is said to be the finest in the world, has been completed, together with the grand stand and seating accommodation for several thousand people. Another novel feature of the outdoor attractions which has not yet been mentioned is a. circular bicycle railway. The bicycles are fixed on three parallel rails, but the motive power is pro- vided by the riders, who may thus race with each other without the danger of a smash or falling off. The railway accommodates only fifteen machines, which will in all probability be kept running almost continuously. The switchback railway, which is of the most wl modern construction, has been completed, and a wonderful maze of mirrors is being erected and will be open to visitors in a day or two. The large room reserved for the pticture gallery, &c., is receiving finishing touches, and will be found a powerful attraction during the run of the exhibition. We are not new going into details, but visitors will find; very many pic- tures of special interest, and local peop.e will not think the gallery less interesting because of the presence of impor- tant work", by painters from the district. Of the Santiago spectacle nothing need be said here, except that all the arrangements have been carried to a successful issue, and it will be one of the most wonderful sights ever seen in Wales. The labour entailed has been enor- mous, but Mr. R. G. Lovell, the managing director of the Water Show and Concessions Company (Limited) determined that no expense shouldi be spared to make it the popular feature of the exhibition. Mr. George Smith, the gipsy king, and his queen wife have arrived, and all ideal gipsy tent is being con- structed in a convenient position in the grounds. A large and commodious photo- graphic studio has been erected, and this also will prove a huge attraction to the thousands of visitors from the lulls. The Indian bazaar is a veritable palace of luxury, to which the final touches of carpenter and decorator are now beinl, put. Here it is that Mr. R. P. Culley's large btaff will d s- pense cooling drinks, and a.l"o provide the more satisfactory blessing of an ample meal to tho hungry visitor who ie spending a day at the exhibition. Inside the eshibition-build'ings pro. per the progress made during the laet few days has been simply marvellous. Although all the machinery is not yet in position, the great bulk of the work has been, completed, and on Thurs- day the fine instaljation of electrical machinery was running throughout the day. This plant will supply the motive power for illumination purposes, and will likewise drive the machinery :n the model dairy. This, by the way, is an unusually fine exhibit, and the thatching of the building in true country style was finished on Thursday. The main driving engines, it is ex- pected, wiH. be at work to-day (Friday), and then the various pieces of heavy anecha-nism and the working models can be tested prior to the opening ceremony. The site occupied by the "Western Mail" is one of t'he best in the section, and the wonderful 'linotype machine, which is admitted to be a perfect embodiment of engineering genius and mechanical skill, will undoubtedly be a. source of considerable in- terest. Another attractive exhibit is a working model of a mlhlgkv diatiUery, which Messrs. Dunville and Co. have attached to their stand. The series of thops representing OW Cardiff are now ready for occupation, and some of the tenants are already stocking their counters and shelves in order to 'bo ready for the opennitr ceremony. Tbe maritime section will be one of the most attractive features of the undertaking. Sir W. Armstrong, Mitchell, and Co. have .sent down a magnificent collection d models of steamer- machine guns, and artillery projec- tiles. Messrs. Doxford, of Sunderland. and Lloyd's Registry of Shipping (nave also contri- buted largely to the exhibits, making the col- lection generally one of the finest ever seen. In the Art Section" most of the p ctures have been hung. and t'he work of cataloguing is now going on. The many fine examples of nncient and modern painters are wortlh many days' study: in fact, it will be one of the few sections of the exhibition of which an artistic visitor will never tire. The work of d'splaving the■ sei--nt fic instrument^ wi.l' be completed to-day (Friaav). In the gsllerv devoted to Vooks ard manuscripts will be found many valuable and curious sipfoi- m?ns of the ancient art of printing. One in- teresting exhibit will be a copy of the first edition of Salesibury's WeVn Teota.ment. flated 1567. Then Dr. Copinger. the noted collator of Manchester, ihas sent down come very fine examples of the Caxton pre^s. the dates m each ( case beinc the latter portion of tbe fifteenth j century. These books 1"Te never before been j seen in South Wales. There have ni«- arrived i several srneeimens of chained b^oks f'om the librarv of All Saints' Church. Here'orl, a^d a oollection of valuable ancient deeds from iFonmon and Ewenny Sni 11 or* Nephews Bi*cuit Factory wvli1 be competed in a dm- or two, and the model coal mine, upon which a lar<re sum of m<m°y ha* been expended, is alnrjo-ft in working order. In fact. the_ whole exhibition is of so vast II. character that it will be a ma ter of impossibility to exhaust the various* attrac- tions in a ein>gle day. |

Two persons were killed and fourteen injured by an explosion. Seven thieves, who were caught red-handed, were shot on the spot during the progress of the fire. Three persons lost their lives through the fire. The damage is estimated at two million dollars. Thousands have been rendered homeljess. The fire, after apparently dying out, has started again, and West Cripple Creek will probably C also be destroyed. :J- ?
SMOKE AND SNUFF.
SMOKE AND SNUFF. COUNCILLORS MAKE THEM. SELVES COMFORTABLE. The Wimborne Rural District Council and the Pontefraet Town Councillors have decided to combine pleasure with bi'-aie^. The former have unanimously rtsolved to s-moke and the ly.tt £ r to take snuff during their public business. At the last meeting of the Ponta- fracfc Town Council it was noticed that several of the councillors had "to go borrowing." and it was, therefore, suggested that the old cor- rrorat'ion s,nuft'-box should be re-introdiw ed. Th.» official box was found, and the mayo:, amid much amusement, undertook to see that it was clean'ed and filled with snuff for the next meeting. ??- -'?

Mr Maclean, M.P., at ] Cardiff ANOTHER CONSERVATIVE CLUB OPENED. Speech by the Borough Member on Wilee and the Education Bill. The new Park Ward Conservative Club-a. handsome and commodious building wliiich has lately made its appearance in Castle-road —was opened on Thursday night by Mr. T. M. Maclean, M.P., the interesting occasion being celebrated by a presentation to the hon. gentle- I man, and also by a banquet which subsequently took place in the meeting-room of the club. Tho building, which was designed by Mr. C. Armstrong Austin, of the firm of Barker and Austin, architects, Cardiff, is built of red brick- work, with Bath stone dressings, and contains on the ground floor, besides an entrance-hall and passage leading to the back and steward's rooms, a billiard-room a.nd smoking-room, over which is a large clubroom used for meetings and concerts, a reading-room, and secretary's office. Lavatory accommodation is provided in a building erected in the garden, and the old part of the house is utilised as a residence for the steward. It is proposed at an early date to extend the house to the rtar, covering in the greater part of the garden with a skittle- alley and kitchen, and dining and other rooms overhead. The builder is Mr. Harry Gibbon, who is also the chairman of the clu'b. We may add that the architect, Mr. C. A. Austin, gave his services in designing and supervising the alteration of the premises as a contribution to the cause. Mr. J. M. Maclean, M.P., in driving up at 6.30 to perform the opening cevcmony, was received with loud applause by the officials and a large number of members who had as^emvbled outside awaiting the hon. member's arrival. Rain falling all the time, the pre- liminary ceremony was necessarily brief. Mi*. Harry Gibbon (chairman of the club) presented Mr. Maclean with a massive silver key (de- signed and supplied by the Atlrvs Furnishing Company, Cardiff), .and bearing the following inscription:—"Presented to J. M. Maclean, Esq., on the occasion of the opening of the Fark Conservative Club. 30th April, 1096." Mr. Gibbon, in handing ever the key, said it afforded him great pleasure to present it as a memento of the ope-ning of the club. Mr. Maclean, in reply, said: I am extremely obliged to you for presenting me with this handsome key, and it affordfe me great pleasure to open your club this evening. (Applause ) The hon. member then formally unlocked I the door amid a loud outburst- of cheering. THE DINNER. A dinner was afterwards served in the I aespmbly-room of the club, which had been handsomely decorate^ by the Atlas Furnishing Company. About 100 members sat down. Mr. H. Gibbon presided, and amongst those present were Mr. J. M. Maclean, M.P., Coun- cillors George David, Henry White, Robert Hughes, and Illtyd Thomas, Mr. W. W. Nell, J.P.. The Grange, Wenvoe; Messrs. J. Stanfield, E. Waddingtoai. Fred Dunklev, Tack Samuel, A. Prosscr (secretary), F. Broken- brow (treasurer). Isaac Samuel, J. Owen Con- way. G. E. Whitehead, C. A. Austin, W D. Williams, and F. J. Rendall (vice-chairmen), E. P. Lewis, R. Taylor, J. Hinton, E. Gregory, T. R. Jones, A. Gavin, E. C. Willmott, &c. The loyal toasts having been proposed and enthusiastically honoured, Mr. J. Rendall proposed "The Bishop and Clergy and Ministers of All Denominations." Mr. George David, in response, said there was no town in this country in which the bishop and clergy o-f the 'Church had done such admirable work in the cause of religion as had) been done by the bishop of th;s dioccse and by the clerirv of the town of Cardiff. Although they differed in principles, they who belonged to the_ Church could throw out generous words of praise of the work which the ministers of other wt-re doing in their midst. They all recognised the self-denying -laibours wlnca were being dona in other communities by men who conscien- tiously believed they were right. (Applause.) Mr. Councillor Henry W liite proposed the "Army, Navy, and Reserve Forces,' alluding to the statement of Colonel Goldsmid at a banquet on the previous evening in Cardiff that he was ready at any moment to obty the stem call of dirty as the spirit that ani- mated all the military and naval and other forces of her Majesty the Queen. (Applause.) Mr. Austin responded. Dr. Trehame, in proposing "Her Majesty's Government," said that in Mr. Maclean they had one who was not a mere puppet of either party. (Applause.) No one desired (at any rate, in the Conservative ranks) that the representative of Cardiff should be a mere delegate, voting as he Atas told, without exer- cising Ihis own intelligent criticism. (Ap- plause.) Mr. Maclean was a loyal a,nd warm supporter of the Government, but lie main- tained the right—especially in regard to South African affairs-to use his independent judge ment, and claimed to bring to bear on the -great questions of the hour such ciiticiem as would assist in the formation of a proper policy so far as foreign affairs were concerned. (Applause.) They had too often shown the white feather iu the Transvaal, and he maintained that they should now show a bold front and (pursue a resolute policy. (Applause.) Mr. J. M. Maclean. M.P., in rising to respond, was received with musical hon ,uvs. Before replying to the toast, which had been proposed 'by Dr. Treharne, he ghoild, he .-aid, like to congratulate them upon having opened ^hat day that commodious and pleasant club, HA had known the Park Ward for a great num- ber of years now- (Applause.) He first hecarae acauainted with it when he came about there with his late lamented friend Sir Mor- gan Morean.—(applause)—and he knew that th<R Park Ward did yery weli for him at the last, election—(applause)—and he was pleased t.ha+, thev had succeeded in obtaining a club-house like that, and so complete, he might say, the network of clubs which now over- spread that great borough. (Applause.) Ti ose clubs were )f the greatest service to the Ccn- servative- cause. They were centres of social intercourse and political progress, and if they wanted any testimony to their value to the cause which was so dear to all of them he thought thev would find it in the impotent attempts of the Radical party to run aown those clubs, and in iheir still moro impotent attempts to form corresponding clubs on their ;wn side- (Laughter and applause.) W ell, j rie found he was placed in the- position of laving to respond again that evening to a j lGast to which he replied, possibly, at too greak db length on the previous mslit. (Lrns of "No.") Dr. Treharne in proposing the toast had found it necessary to offer, as it were, acme defence of himself (Mr. Maclean) for speaking out his opinions with great indepen- dence upon tho public questions of the day. Perhaps it was a fault of his to be a little too militant in his criti- cisms. He hoped he should not give ceca- sion to amybody to compare hire o the states- man described by Drvden, of wham the post wrote: Pleased with the danger whew the waves ran high. He sought the storm-; but for a calm unfit. Would steer too nigh the sands to show his wic. (Laughter.) But. really, there as a great temptation at the present day to indulge in criticism of the Government which he was returned to Parliament to support. He did not offer criticisms in an idle spirifc, but, really, they had so overwhelming a majority and the Opposition was so disorganised that if some- one did not criticise th. Government life would become very dull indeed. (Laughter.) He dared say they all remembpred the stcry of the gentleman who wai giving evidence in a court of law. He said he had been married for 40 years, and lie and his wife had never had an angry word, and the judge leaned over from the bench and said, "Dear mp, what a dull life it must have- been." (Loud laughter.) He was afraid it would be a very dull life for a private member of Parliament—who in these day,, found very great difficulty in gett:ng a chance of putting in a word edge- ways in Parliament-if he was not "Bowed to expreRS his opinion with considerable frankness to his constituents when he came down to them to pour out the treasures of his soul, which he had been denied the opportunity of laying before the House of Commons. (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) He did not think that in anything he had sa.td upon public affairs he had departed from ihe advocacy ot the principles which commended themselves to his supporters a.t the general election. (Hear, hear.) He kept always in view certain great ends of public policy, and if be thought the Government was deviating from the attainment of those ends lie felt lie was bound to express his opinion on those points. (Applause.) But he asked them not to suppose for a moment that he took a very gloomy view of the state of public affairs abroad, or that he wished to suggest for one moment that, whether or no- the' men responsible for the Imperial policy of the country had made mistakes here and there, it would be possible to improve upon the present stat" of affairs by bringing the leaders of the Opposite n into office again. (Applause ) He was perfectly satisfied that the men they had in power now wera the men who were best qualified to direct the Apetinies of the country. The cause of Enghifk civilisation, which was the cau £ 6 they to promote, must. Would remember that the great astronomer Galileo, when imprisoned and! forced to deny hie theory that the earth w-fmt lound the sun. made the famous exclamation, And yet it moves." (Applause.) And -o. whatever trouble might come upon the British Empire, and what- ever passing storms might disturb them, they c'ould- still say, with the proud confidence of a people who had- advanced from, age to age throughout the centuries, and always had) con- throughout the centuries, and always had) con- tinued to make progress for themse'-ves and for civiliea-tion, "Whatever these troubles are, we are gure that the cause of English civilisation is safe, and that we will do our beat 'to advance." (Applause.) Ne w, the leader of their party, Lord Salis- bury-— (applause)—-mad9 a speech on the previous night in which he showed how little dismayed were the minds of English states- w I men at being confronted with troubles in any part of the world. (Applause.) He rhowed that iin the great work they had now again undertaken in Egypt they were endeavouring to recover for Egypt her lost provinces, and to extend our rule far up the River Nile into the heart ,-f Central Africa. (Applause.) That was RU expedition conducted with great care and skill, and he thought with every promise of ultimate success. (Applause.) That they were undertaking very quietly while they had greater troubles to encounter in another part of Africa, and he thought it 1 shewed our statesmen were moved by rial desires, and would not be deterred from J carrying out what they believed to be a true ( Imperial policy. No doubt, attention had been mainly directed of late to foreign affairs, but there were many other questions of the s greatest interest to the people of this country. t Thev could ttot always have their eves fixed i abroad; and they must remember that this J cuuntry itself v,is the seat of our Empire, and > thar it was upon the prosperity of the people of 1 this country that the future of the whole t Empire depended. (Applause. ) lie thought they < might rest assured that the Government now in power was doing its be-t to promote the I prosperity üf the tliiited Kingdom, and was also attempting to carry out, the policy which it was returned to ijfiSce last year to pursue. A I very great number 01 Bills had been had before Parliament by the Government, all of ^hem ] in redemption of ;hc pledges made to the eke- ] tors at the general election. 1 Applause.) i Attempts were made here and there by the Radicals to show theIH these measures would do some harm to t'ue country at large. They • had ithe great Education Bill, for instance, pro- posed by Sir .Tohn Qorst—(appiause)—a states- man who took a great interest in Cardiil", cu.d v ho was well known to many of those present. (Applause.) Now, lte had seen it stated in some of the newspapers that the people of Wales were intensely indignant with this Edu- cation Bill—tliat they considered it. infringed upon their religious liberties, that, there- fore, they would oppose it to the bitter end. When the Bill was brought out he (the speaker) was away from London, but he read it care- fully, and was struck with the special provi- sions made for_ the benefit of the Principality of Wales—(applause)—because the mea-sire put the lontrol of education entirely under the educational authorities whioh had been Formed for the purpose of carrying out the work of secondary education in %ales. On reading the clause he thought to himself, "W dl, this gives very great power to the Welsh people, because Under the Secondary Education Act these authorities are able to meet together and to foim a singly great educational scheme for the whole of the Principality-" And in writing to a Cardiff newspaper With which he was connected he pointed out this great advantage that would -be conferred Uipon the Principality by the new Bill. Well. some objection, was taken to what lie said as not indicating the trus purport of the Bill; but he spoke on the subject to Sir John Gorst the other might, and aaked him if his (the speaker s) interpretation of the Bill was correct, and he said, "Certainly it will be possible nuder the Bill for th.-j different county councils of the Principality to appoint these educational authorities to come to an agreement with one another and form one court for the -administra- tion o.' the elementary education of the whole peopls of Wales." That seemed to him a great concession, indeed, to the spirit of nationality which was so powerful an influence with the Welsh people; and they got that benefit from, the Unionist Government which was supposed to care nothing about the people of Wales. (Applause.) He did not sec when that was the case—when it was pos- sible for the Welsh people to form their own educational court, acting, of course, always under the Education Department m London -how it was possible for them to say that this Education Bill struck in any way at the principles of equal an,j free education for the whole of the Welsh people. (Applause.) On the contrary, he thought the Bill ought to confer signal benefits upon them. (Applause.) Well, tiit-re were maty other measures whicu i the Government had brought forward which i had been of the greatest advantage to the whole country. He did not tnmk that people realised yet what an immense work had been done in the strengthening of the Navy of this country. (Applause.) Many millions of money had been devoted by the Government for this purpose. At the lowest estimate he should say that ten millions of money had been devoted to the strengthening of the Navy, and of their fortifications in diffe- rent parts of the Empire, in excess of what would have been given if the Estimates of the late Government had been simply ma.ntained, and) this had been done without any harm to the taxpayers of this country. (Applause.) That, he thought, was a feather in the cap of any Administration. (Applause.) There were other measure#? which seemed to him to be somewhat more doubtful in character. He must say he did not like the principles of the Agricultural Rating Bill which had been in- troduced .in the House of Commons, because it seemed to him 11 dangerous, thing, although it had not been unprecedented, for the State to say when such and such an industry was di-tressed that xhey would relieve it by paying the rates out- of contributions to funds taken from the general body of the taxpayer. Many industries" were depressed-the coail industry, for instance, but he did not suppose that any Government was likely to bring in Bill to relieve the persons interc-stf-d in the coal trades from the payment of their rates by taking money from ihe rest of the ratepayers. But vhv should it not be done for them if it was done for the sake of relieving agricul- turalists? (Hear, hear.) For his part he thought it would be a very good tiling if -t BilS of that kind, instead of being made per- ) manent, should he made temporary. What it a revival took place in agriculture—and it was quite possible that they had now reached th-; bottom of the present depression? Suppose that rise were to take place. Was this re>:ief to be gran-ted for ever? Were rates on agricul- tural land to be relieved at the expense of the general body of taxpayers, when, perhaps, other industries were depressed and apriculiurc was prosperous? (Hear, hear.) He thought it wag only reasonable that the claims should be admitted, that relief of this kind should lie onlv temporary, and that there should be an inquiry into the whole incidence of local taxa- tion liefore a-nv permanent change was made. (Applause.) He supposed that would be quoted as an example of the criticism in which he indulged at the expense of the Government. Well, he did not find that the Government, itself took very much offence—(lauglrterV--aiu1. if thev were to do so he should not much care, so long as it did not give Great offence to his con- stituents. (Hear, hear.) The position of a member of parliament at the -present time was one that presented very serious difficulties. At the opening of another club in the borough tho previous night a working man made a very interest1# speech, „nd said ha ,not °'1" ject to bun (Mr. Maclean) criticising the ee Government, hut }ltlJnu,sb not object to being criticised himself' ("Hear, QIJ.i laughter.)

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE.
UNIVERSITY COLLEGE. POSITION OF THE BUILDING FUND. To the Editor of the "Evening Express." Sir,—Iu asking you to publish the appended further list of subscriptions to the building fund of the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire, I again avail myself of the occasion to direct attention to the educational progress made of late years by this institution. A simple statement of facts is th1 most effec- tive way of bringing home to the public mirid this extraordinary development. During the last five years the number c-f day students has much mere than doubled, and the number of eveniug students in receipt Of technical instruction has more than quadrupled. The Council has from time to time striven to find aconnmodat-ion for this rapidly-1.11' creasing number of students by renting adjoin- ing houses, by the purchase of the buildings of the Proprietary School in Dumfries-plac1, and bv the erection of lecture-rooms of wood; but the time has now come when further steps in this direction would be a false economy, and when the futUoTe development of the college will be seriously checked unless suitable and adequate buildings of permanent character are provided. The Lords of her Majesty's Treasury have- on the petition of the Council, promised £ 2-,000 towards the erection of the required7 new build- ings on condition that a like sum be raised in the district; and the Drapers' Company of London have most generously offered to erect a portion of the buildings at a cost of £ 10.000 in case the condition laid down by the Treasury is fulfilled by July next. In these circumstances, the Court of Gover- nors and Council have made an appeal to the public for £ 30,000, of which more than half haa already been subscribed; and I ventnre to hope tliat the publication of these facts is all that is necessary to elicit the required response from the community of South Wales and Mon* mouthshire, which has always shown too deepest interest i-n its educational institution^> a most conspicuous proof of which interest is given in the accompanying listo of subscriptions. I remain, sir. Yours faithfully, LOUIS TYLOR, Treasurer to the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire. University College, Cardiff, April 30, 1896. LIST OF SUBSCRIPTIONS:- £ g, d.
