BRILLIANT WEATHER PREVAILS.
BRILLIANT WEATHER PREVAILS. DOG AND BIRD, ETC., SHOWS. Brilliant weather—the very fast essential to success of all outdoor functions-favoured the opening on Wednesday of the two days' carnival arranged for tlie benefit oi the Swansea Hospital, and the heaits 01 the hard-working committee and oxhciais, Who were early astir, bea-t with high nopcs. As already announced, a really spienuiU programme had been arranged, including military tournament by the idth Hussars, dog, poultry, pigeon, and cage-bird shows, brass band contests, athletic sports, con certs, and a host of other attractions that usually Iorni a show m themselves. The bill of fare," indeed, was a credit to the resources and energy of the commit! c:e and officials, who deserve therefore to be men tioned :—Chairman of committer Mr. Hy ilaodonneil; vice-chairman, Mr. R. H. Whittaker; committee, Messrs. Wilfrid Phelps, Ivor Thomas, Harry Nott, T. S. Harrison, W. J. Morgan, T. Hooper, G. Briniey Bowen, Dan. Morgaor; treasurer, Hiram S. Jones; secretary, W. H. Bill- ings. Splendid help in many ways has been given by Colonel W. LI. Morgan, the presi dent, a Jong list of vice-presidents, and a ptrong ladies' committee. SCENE ON THE PARK. Victoria Park looked at its very best at ten o'clock when the Carnival opened, though it was not for some time that other than those interested in the dog ajid bird shows began to patronise the great al fresco function. The grand weather was the sub- ject for genera! congratulation, and it cer- tainly was lovely. Old Sol poured his bountiful rays down on the greensward, and gentle zephyrs displayed to view the bunting that had been put up in various parts of the park. The large marquees also lent a picturesqueness to the general scene -great white cones and squares, that were in striking contrast to the surroundings. The arrangement of these was admirably contrived, the centre of the park being left open for the ring attractions in front of the same grand stand that did duty for the Swansea Horse Show. Dotted all about the park were daintily-dressed flower girls who had made their efforts for charities quite a j fine art. You did not want a bouquet or a buttonhole, perhaps, and then you would fbe promptly asked to drop a penny into a | pretty little satchel held up for the pur- » The bewitching smile, the smallness I *y e request, and the deserving nature of the cause, all combined to appeal, and in I went the penny every time. Additional jncturesqueness was afforded by the uni- < forms of the competitors for the evening t carnival procession, in respect to which prizes were offered for the best fancy cos- tumes, and not a few of those present mis- took some of the best known Swansea boys for the invading 18th Hussars. The dog show was in the lower part of the park. The poultry B-nd cage-bird show abutted Helen's-avenue in the main exhibition ground, and alongside the brass band con- tests had been arranged. Refreshment and other tents were also close by. The pro- t gramme was not in full swing till the early j afternoon. ) EVENTS IN THE SPORTS' RING. f -A-fter lunch the centre of attrition was 1 the big ring in front of the grand stand, where preparation were going forward for T the first of the military tournaments by a •fH°l of the 18th Hussars (Princess of »• jH66 ^wn)» whose appearance was by the «md permission of Lieut.-Col. W. Pollock- the men won nine prizes at LMympja. The squad was in charge of Riding Master Lawrence, V.C., and the tournament included the Maypole I dance, where the horses displayed their fine £ heads and posts, Balaclava melee, tent pcggmg, wrestling, bare back riding, etc. At tbi.3 time the attendance was fairlv mge-probably a couple of thousand-^uid there was a good sprinkling of ladies and gejiUeiutn occupying eoate in the gratd fntf1 however, w"a-s anything but Ihit *hVent-?erein*' Sergt." Vesey was Blseock st'«»nd, and Pte. Armitt inira. in the sword v. sword contest, Sergt irauvei won after a good bout. The push- nail match, three a-side. was particularly interesting, and quite a novelty to Swansea- lt-es, way in wjiich the horses, by means of their forelegs, pushed the huge ball along, evenwnen the animals were going at a gal- lop, was marvellous. During the tournament the 1st Glam. Band played selections, and as the afternoon wore :m the park began to fhI up. though it was expected that Thurs- day would see a much larger attendance. g Hiscock won the heads and posts contest, and quite a feature of this part of the programme was a very fine gymnastic display over the vaulting horse. Among other interesting items of the tour- nament was an illustration of the rescue of a wounded comrade, and it was well nigh human to see the horse lie down to allow of the wounded man to crawl and get upon its back. Indeed, the cavalry men pro- vided a treat that lasted for over two hours. Following the tournament there were a couple of general competitions. For the best decorated bicycle W. J. Chidzoy woo first prize, one guinea and W. Ridd, second, 10s. 6d. two laps foot obstacle race, 1st (one guinea) W. Le Rossignol; 2nd (10s 6d), J. Henwood; 3rd (5s.), Albert Ace.

_. WEDNESDAY EVENING'S PROCESSION.
WEDNESDAY EVENING'S PRO- CESSION. The Swansea Hospital Carnival at the Victoria Park entered upon the second and concluding day on Thursday, and again brilliant weather favoured -i; function. All who visited the park on the opening day were simply delighted, it being the concensus of opinion that it was the first time in a movement of this kind, for a really good programme to be provided, and consequently it was generally thought that the shopkeepers' half-holiday would see people flocking there in swarms. The grand military tournament by the 18th Hussars, under Lieut, and Riding Master Lawrence, V.C., as well as the dog and poultry shows, and brass band contests, still comprised some of the chief attractions, bu £ in r.d- diti^n, there was now a big road walk from the carnival ground to Parkmill and back, in which 24 had entered, including A. T. Yeomans and C. H. Collis, well-known local pedestrians. Also what, was much looked forward to—a donkey race. OVERNIGHT SCENES—PROCESSION AND BRASS BAND CONTESTS. On Wednesday evening, the military tour- nament was repeated, and much enjoyed, an additional feature being a pushball contest between the cavalrymen (dismounted) and a team got up by Mr. George Bowen (o- the Adelphi Hotel), a gentleman during the afternoon having offered a prize of a sover- eign. The Hussars had the best of the match, though the scratch lot took some pushing, and won by a goal. Sergt.-Major Bird afterwards led on a smart lot of young ladies of the Swansea Higher Grade School, I who went through Indian club exercise with admirable precision. The winners of the brass band contest were also announced by adjudicator J. W. Beswick (Manchester) as follows :—1st prize, £10, Trebanos 2nd, £5, Ystalyfera Temperance; and 3rd, £2. Cwmtawe Silver. The first and third bands played" Gems of British Songs," and the second "Llewelyn," as the test piece. Ty croes, Protheroe's (Pengroes), and Ystrad- gynlais bands also competed. The adjudi- cator remarked that he had been very pleased with some of the performances, and the colour, intonation, and quality of the first prize band were very good, and this band gave the best interpretation. Inci- dentally, Mr Beswick assured his hearers that there was not that immense difference that many people thought amongst bands 1D South and West Wales. Winners in other competitions adjidged overnight were Bed costumed rider on horseback 1st, Abe Freedman (H Lady") 2nd, Geo. irotheroe (Crusader), and 3, Griff Nott (Cavalier) best decorated tradesman's turnout: 1st, Maypole Dairy Companv Jnd, W. Jevons, Singleton Gardens. Skett'v best decorated horse and carriage 1st. John Seldon, St. Thomas 2nd, G. J Hos kins, Sketty; best set-piece: 1st, Messrs Colquhoun and Pockett (tramp motorists) 2nd, The American dnc^o and Abertawe Impure Tinned Meat Company Unlirl" (arranged by Mr. Dan Morgan). Every- thing was now ready for the procession, which, thou eh a short one. was excellent ir point of novelty. The set piece bv the Im pure Meat Company was a sanguinary at fair, for "blood" was bespattered about everything-, whilst th5 sight of a dead rat on the hook. indicated that the company (with an unlimited liability), as in Chicago, were not over particular. 'Another amusing set" was a nondescript lot of blacken^ faces and band instruments, with the no tice that, it was "the farewell visit of the Black Mike Band." It was under the baton of Mr. H. Costerman. Mr. Aubrey Colqu. houn, as a tramp motorist, appeared in what was by a long way the cleverest set piece'* in the procession, and the number of "punc- tTIres" that he got was disturbing—in the fun producing line. Both the turn-outs of Mr. W. Jevons and Mr. John Seldon were floral, and Messrs. Weaver and Co. brought up the rear with a very fine trade display •—a wagon of float-drawn by no less thau J"
FIERCE SUMMER ECZEMA.
FIERCE SUMMER ECZEMA. BURNING HASHES ON BACK OR CHEST-L-ADY CURED BY ZAM-BUK. Dry eczema, with its fierce, buring irrita- tion, is particularly prevalent in the sum- mer. It most frequently breaks out on the back or chest, sometimes as a late spring disorder, and may spread extensively and develop into a chronic form of the disease. Zam-Buk not only cools and soothes, but effects a permanent cure. Mrs. Easterfcy, c/o 2, Laurel Villas, Bel- mont (Surrey), said to a London jourraiist • "Late last Spring I felt for the first time a slight irritation on my back. Unfortun- ately I treated it lightly, but later on it got worse. A nasty eruption was spreading and I at once consulted a doctor, who diag- nosed the disease as eczema in its fierce, drv form. His ointment allayed the irritation but the sores continued to spread. Gradu' ally they covered nearly the whole of mv back, chest and neck. I was in misery. I could not obtain proper sleep night or day, the itching was so unendurable. "In September I went to the seaside seek ins a beneficial change, but the disease spread. "A few days after my husband and I re- turned home, we decided to trv Zam-Buk Jbf n?Vlu?f ^aTe me re3ief" Zam-Buk had a delightfully cooling and soothing effect and I was more comfortable than I had been for months. Of course we persevered with the applications of Zam-Buk, and day bv day the improvement was noticeable. The first large box nearly cured me, and later on I was absolutely well. Not a mark remains to show how I suffered, and to-day nv skin is clearer than ever." Zam-Buk is the balm that just suits the season and t.he skin. Keep it handy at home or at the seaside.
THURSDAY'S OPENING: ATTEND…
--=:z horses. This was not for competition. The band of the 1st G.V.A., and the Swansea Telegraph Messengers' Band took part in the procession, which was watched through the main streets of the town by thousands cfpeopie. THURSDAY'S OPENING: ATTEND ANCE. The gates were not opened on Tiursdiv until noon, but it was not till two hours later that the public began to assemble, and then there was not what might be called a rush. Still the glorious weather and the halt-holiday oombined augured well. T:).e band of the 1st Glamorgan (Conductor Har- ney) played selections as visitors watv-hed the pedestrians prepare for the carnival walk, or patronised the. dog and bird sho\v-s. An air-gun competition, in charge of >i^s Whitaker, was also gcing forward, and at the time of writing a number of highest, pos- sibles had been made, includiug F. Jones F. Hertz, P.C. J. Bounds, W. West'aks and G. Whitehead. The first prize is for a silver watch, and six other prizes. GRAND MILITARY TOURNAMENT. Shortly after two o'clock the squad of 18th Hussars gave another military touma* ment, similar to the one that delighted the visitors on the opening day, and at this tini-i people began to pour into the park. There must have been nearly 4,000 people present at three o'clock. The t-êllt-pegging, the pushball matches, and the wrestimg bouts evinced great interest among the big°crowd, which now packed the grand stand and lined the ring three deep. It was estimated th,:>re the ring three deep. It was estimated th,:>re were about 7,000 people present at four o'clock, and an estl.11ate of the gate and oTacd stand takings was £82. <0 BRASS BAND CON i'ESTS.

GREAT ROAD WALK. YEOMANS FINISHES IN SPLENDID STYLE. At ten minutes to five o'clock the word went round the park that the walkers were arriving, and in a moment or two Yeomaos appeared in the ring and was loudly cheered. Almost as fresh as when he started, he cover- ed the requisite two laps on the ground and finished with a splendid spurt, amid general cheers. His time was 2 hours 47 minutes 21 4-5 seconds for the 19i miles. The official time at the finish w-?re — „ „ -tlrs. Mrns. Sec. h jTTn 2 47 31 2. Griff Waiters 3 7 45 3. D. Jones .— 3 10 0 4. E. D.

FIRST DAY'S TAKINGS. ? r CONSIDERED DISAPPOINTING. The receipts of the carnival on Wednesday, including tickets, gats mcney, and the tak- 1 ings of the dog and pou _ry shows, amounted 1 to just over -2160, and this is considered by the committee to be somewhat disap- pointing in view of the great expense which « has l-e*in gone to in order that a rich treat might be provided the public, and a benefit to the hospital at the same time. l.

MR. TRUEMAN AND GWYN HALL APPLICATION TO LIE ON NEATH COUNCIL'S TABLE. Neath Council Halls Committee on Thurs- day recommended that an aplication from Mr. C. R. Trueman, for the use of the Gwyn Hal lie on tlie table. Mr. E. S. Phillips: I'm no friend of True-man's, but was not a mail entitled to the use of the hall if he -paid for it.

CRICKET. .
CRICKET. GENTS OF GLAMORGAN AND ESSEX. IDEAL WEATHER CHANGES IN VISITING TEAM, TREMLIN'S TRUNDLING PROVES UNPLAYABLE. WELSH ELEVEN EASILY DISPOSED OF. If the promoters of the great fixture of U12 season bad theanselves selected the weather, they could not have chosen mor j. delightful conditions than those which prevailed at Neath on Thurrsday, the occasion of the an- nual visit of the Gentlemen of Essex. Un- fortunately, several prominent x^ss'ix players were absent, but tho vacancies were filled by the best substitutes available. Lovers of cricket had anticipat'?d with pleasure the appearance of the Rev. F. Gillingham, who has been performing such wonders with the bat this season. But he was unable to ac- oompany the visitors. Mead was also ab- sent, while Mr. C. Robson, the old captain of the Ha-mpshifre Eleven, failed at the last moment through the illness of his brother. Included in the visiting eleven wr:-< how- ever, Vivian Woodward, the English Asso- ciation amateur, and Dan Reese, the New Zealander. The game started precisely at twelve, Glamorgan winning the toss, and sending T. A. L. Whittington and Norman Riches to mce the bowling of Trillin and J. W. H. 1- Doug-Las. Runs came freely during the first few overs, 15 sroincc up er eight min- ^tes play. At 16 Riches was c and b by Tremlin, and the latter's very next- ball sent Briggs, the Neath pro., back—clean bowled. Score, 16—2—0. A. Gibson took Briggs' place, and he acd Whittington played pretty cricket. Gibson survived a.n appeal for l.b.w., apd Whittington a little later was nearly caught close in on t-h'■ I- side. The bowling was a iittle too good for the batsmen, Tremlin and Douglas keep- ing an excellent length, and runs came very elowly indeed. Alter 35 minutes' play only 30 had been scored. A little later a change im the bowling was tried, D. Reese displacing Douglas. He was almost im- mediately successful in bowling Whittington with his second delivery. Whittington had been in frcm the beginning and liad only made 3. Score, 31-3-3. Hugh Howell then joined Gibson. At 38 the Llanelly man was clean bowled by Tremlin, who was in rare form. H. B. Letcher, who joined Gib- son. had a short life. and by no means a merry one. for his wickets were disarranged by Tremim's second ball. Waiter Brearley, the Lancashire fast bowler, a great favourite with Neath folk, received a.n ovation on going to the wickets. He had a nasty one from Reese, which he successfully played, and then slammed the same bowler to the boundary for four; but Brearley's life was brief, for a, little later he was caught by Tremlin off Rees ;49-6--8. Th e visitors were very: smart in the field, and F. A. Trick, well known because of his local connection, found much favour among the spect-ators for his alertness in stopping runs. Gibson, who had been playing careful cricket, but- who, nevertheless, had more than one life, was the next batsman to be dismissed. He was very smartlv caught behind the wickets by -Woodward off Reese. Gibson's stand bad been very valuable, his 27 being the biggest contribution to the whole total. In trying to run a short one, Peter David was run out. He had received only two deliveries, and it was distinctly hard lines for it was not his fault. Cadogan called when he certainly should not have done 60—65—8—2. Sergt. Thomas, another local favourite, joined the Cardiff batsman, but Tremlin soon disposed of him with a beautiful ball, which broke from the off and took his leg bail. Briggs, Letcher, Sergt.. Thomas and Hugh Howel'k were all dismissed by a similar kind of ball, a deli-very from the off ta-king the leg stump. Frank Taylor did not' add to the score, and Glamorgan closed its innings for the low total of 69. Es&'x commenced their innings at 2.30, and did badly, four wickets falling for 38. S. A. Trick; and McGahey being among the victims. Brearley was responsible for most of the michief, taking three out of the four wickets. The attendance at three o'clock had increased to three thousand, a record. The fourth wicket fell at 48, Reese being clean bowled by the Lancashire champion. J. H. T. Douglas then joined Percy Perrin, who was batting brilliantlv. m r i lst Inning?,. T. A. L.

He played pluckily on, however, and when bowled his injuries were attended to by Dr. Davies.
LORD GLANTAWE AND HIS TITLE.
LORD GLANTAWE AND HIS TITLE. ABERTAWE CHOSEN BUT AL- TERED AT FRIENDS' WISHES. In connection with Lord Glantawe's peer- age, the following paragraph appeared in Wednesday's "Daily Post" :—. The new baron had a preference for the title Abertawe, the Welsh name for Swansea, but he changed his mind because of the possibility of this title clashing with the Vivian peerage. The new peer, we be- lieve, consulted the authorities at the Col- lege of Arms on Tuesday on the subject. We are informed by the new peer that he had originally chosen the title of "Lord Abertawe," and the College of Arms had approved of it; but that he altered the name I to Glantawe" in deference to the strongly expressed wishes of his numerous friends ¡' throughout the Swansea Valley. Lord Glantawe arrives in Swansea from London at 4 o'clock on Saturday afternoon. —

NEATH NOTES.
NEATH NOTES. Neath Guardians in Loquacious Mood. Popular Local Figure Gone. The ups and downs of cricket were again exemplined on Saturday at Maesteg, whe-e Neath looked certain winners at one stage of the game. They went to the wickers with only 71 to get to win, an d they got oveT the 60 for the loss of five wickets. Truly not a brilliant performance, but at the same time, one that suggested ea«sy victory. But the last five wickets fell for r practically nothing, and the home eleven won by five runs, not by five wickets, as an evening contemporary coloured red, put it. Some weeks ago I referred to the confid- ence displayed by the Neath batsmen, and then drew a comnarison between the way in which the men walked to the wickets as distinguished from the way in which they used to. A fatal paragraph, for if ever a tail end suffered from "nerves," the Neath tail end did on Saturday. They walked to the wickets with their hearts in their mouths. Result: Collapse and vctory for Maesteg. Oi course, it was very hard lines to have Briggs given out leg before, when the ba'i hit his head. But then, you must remem- ber, there is very little disiance uetween the Neath pro.'s head and his legs, and maybe the Maesteg umpire is an indifferent judge oi distance. They had one at a place nearer home a while back. That decision does not forgive the bats- men lor tue spirit of "doea-d. runk" wtucii they ummisitakesibly showed, bellows who piay cricneL must nave "beart." 'ihe mystery attaching to the death of Arthur Davits, of sue wen, who was killed at Seven ijusiers a we&K ago, was cieariy ef-uci- aatoo by JJr. Samuels post-mortem ex animation, the result of tn-is examination showed that the poor fellow must have been struck by a fa.U of roaL. The evidence of Dr. Samuel and the verdict of the j-ury will secure to tHe bereaved, relatives tille ooiti- pensir-ion to wincn tciey are ciea-rly entitled. JDon t board a train while in motion, and dont strike a ticket collector. The gentie- man who hailed irom Loughor did. both, and the ohenoes cost him a sleepkass night and £3 16. Od. Poor Griff. Jenkins has left us. He passed away after a lingering illness on Monday night. Grilf was a genial soul—a m.2 whom everyone spoke well of. He was kind- hearted, and was ever willing and ready to help others. How many hundreds of times has he given his services as a musician to the cause of sweet charity, and frequently too when his health forbade him to do FoG, Griff was a fine musician. But above all he was a man in the true sense of the word He will be missed. Neath Guardians were in a merry mood on Wednesday. Everyone wanted to talk at the same time, and the chairman didn't quite know where he was. There was a good attendance, too. Preliminaries in con- nection with an appointment were to be ar- ranged, not that 1 suggest there could be any possible connection between the two. The results were, however, intensely dis appointing to some who wanted an age limit fixed in relation to the appointment of a relieving officer. But they didn't have tlieir way. A member suggested that this age limit move was for the purpose of de- barring prospective candidates over 40 from applying, and so narrowing downtbt- competition for the position. But the elec- ted of the people, who had the appointment absolutely in their own hands, couldn't possibly have given a passing thought to that. No perish the suggestion. However, D. H. Davies, the sturdy for- ward, was moved up one, and the Guard- ian, by an overwhelming majority, decided not to advertise for the First Central Dis- trict, the appointment to which has given rise to almost unprecedented wire-pulling, but to advertise the position of :-e lieving officer for the Second Central Dis- trict rendered vacant by the sudden and unexpected promotion of the only "D. H." Now we shall have more wire-pulling, but thank goodness, it will be over within the next three weeks. And canvassing is a disqualification! Neath and Aberavon licensed victuallers have had a big struggle with the object of getting the county of Glamorgan divided into separate areas for compensation pur- poses. They have failed. But Mr. O. H. Jone6, who is greatly opposed to the pro- posal, wiil hear further of it. The matter ooes not rest with last Tuesday's decision. The children of the Cottage "Homes are going to have another treat this season. Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Evans-Bevan are again the generous donors. May the little ones have a happy time. Gratitude is somewhat rare now-a-days But we do hear of it occasionallv. A few days ago a former inmate of the Cottage Homes sent two £5 notes by registered letter—one to the chairman, and the other to the clerk-m grateful memory of 'the good he had derived from the excellent in- stitution at Brvncoch. The sender did not reveal his name, but I am told he is a gentleman in prosperous circumstances. "OBSERVER."
IHAFOD FRIENDLY SOCIETY TREASURER.
HAFOD FRIENDLY SOCIETY TREASURER. SUMMONED FOR WITHHOLDING MONEY AND BOOKS. At Swansea on Thursday Leonard Morgan, 60n of the landlord of the Royal Oak 7nn, Hafod, and late treasurer of the "Royal Oak" Lodge (now held in the Smiths' Arms, Hafod) of the Twentieth Century Equitable Society, was summoned for withholding money and books of the society. Mr. f R. Harris defended. Mr. Harris said accounts and monies ceived were required to be handed over fcv the 1st of the month. The secretary ap- plied to defendant, to do so, but they were not handed over, nor were accounts j-en dered. The secretary reported the matter to the local executive member. Defendan4 promised to turn up, but failed sne-hJ meeting vyas called for June 20th and ,,n th. 19th <*fsnd»t wrote that hs be able to attend till quarter night, wh^n he would hand over books and money. Quar ter night was June 26th, when defendaa* again failed to *urn up Matthew McLelland, local executive member, gave evidence.. Llew. Richards, Aberdvberthi-street lodge secretary, said he lied > l £ S °D Ju^e 6th he a letter, but received no answer. Defendant turned up on the quarterly meeting day after the meeting was over. As there was a difference of a few shil- lings mtbe accounts presented by the secre- tary in his evidenoe and the amount claimed. the case was -vdjourned for a week to enable the complainants to bring into court a cor- rect statement.
