TO .V n N E STREET CHAPEL. The dispersion of the congregation recently wor- shipping at Tontine-street Chapel has been almost as «W> its coating together. It is now some- If'vM-?*? ft number of the eongre- jSi'iion afe Carmarthen-read Ihapsi suddenly left the sanctuary, taking with them their pastor, Mr. John son, and settled at Tontine-street, leaving their old chapel paslorlsss, and the congregation reduced by two thirds. It was expected that the parent would die, and the pro- digal would flourish. History, however, baft proved the prediction ialse, f, r the Tabernacle cow a flourishing church, and Tontine-street Chapel has been recently seized and the effects sold up by the treasurer of the Corporation. During their short Ufa the Tontine-street congre- gation have had their troubles, lor t.re whole of the prosecds o" a bazaar, whieli waa to relieve the place of the ineabus cf a debt, disappeared and so did the pastor just about the same time. The remaining funds grew scanty, and the result of an application to the local Baptist Association was that they received advice to dissolve the congregation. The final stroke is fresh in everybody's mind, and now the flock is scattered and has taken refuge :n d fferent folds, "wme, it is stated, are at York-place, some Slave gone to the little chapel on Gibbet- Bill, yet others have gone back to the old church tvhence they passed forth a decade ago. Perhaps tt is as v. ell, for a smali and struggling congrega- tion overburdened with liabilities that cannot be met is a pitifal object. The history of Noncon- formity contains the annals of many such efforts. Better, however, that the child perish than that the parent be left crippled and forsaken. TRADE PkOKPliCTS!

THE EFFECTS OF THE M'BJN LEY TARIFF. A BRIGHTER OUTLOOK. At the twelfth annual meeting of the Chamber of Commerce to-day, Sir A. K. Rolht. M.P., who presided, said, with regard to trade, he could ■ «only speak with a feeling of hope. The statistics wera generally conflicting, but the Board of Trade Returns for practically the whole cf the year were distinctly encouraging. The volume of our trade was progressively increasing, and that showed shat the depression was one chiefly of price. Though thstt was a disadvantage to producers and Tarriers.it was an advantage to thegencral consumer. The prospects of trade were also favoured by the /e-enaetmcnt of commercial treaties. The Conti- Bent was beginning to have enough of very stringent protection, and commercial treaties had been framed between Russia and Germany, and >were being framed between Russia and Austria, France and Switzerland, and Spain and ourselves. Those were steps towards freer trade; but before we could get permanently better trade in this country we must obtain it from the United States and India; and there were grave difficulties in both directions. The McKinley Tariff had failed in its object in America, and the result, when it came, would be important to the textile and other trades of this country. At no distant period the deprcs- sion would end, and we should re-experience the beceQt of renewed prosperity,

t-" TIE CORK CAKD CASE. .Mr. McLouglilin resumed his add re as < his (1108- 4ay) morning on behalf of the defendant in the .action of Pike v. Beamish. Counsel drew atten- iian. to the fact that althongh Mr. Pike had full in- \formatioD regarding the accusation brought against him of cheating at the card-table, he took so steps to have the matter investigated by the ,elub,committee until other members of the club fcad determined that that course should be taken. Plaintiff eventually professed a desire to go bvslore j the committee, but that was when tho witness oould not be induced to give evidence. When at a ii. later period they agreed to coma forward he -appealed to the law, and by the law would now have to be judged. Mr. Wright replied for the plaintiff; pointing out ^inconsistencies in what he described as the im- probable stories to.d by the witnesses examined lor the plaintiff. Capt. Cooper and Mr. Harslield had won, he said, considerable sums annually by playing cards in the Club, and a threat of expul- sion was a terrible thing for them. It was well for t the jury to remember tnis in connection with tho £ fact that they only attempted to verify their state- U iments with regard to cheating by the plaintiff be- fore the Club Committee a.fter the threat of their expulsion had been made.

A CURI(>USr^NE3TINQTpLACE. A curious example-of an unusual nesting-place ie reported from Thame, in Oxfordshire. A few Sunday.ago, on the family of Mr. W. Wykehani- Musgrave entering their pew in Thame Park Chapel, they found a partially-built robin's nest ■m the book ledge against a prayer-book and a ^ymn-book. The family occupied another seat, loud left the building operations of the red-breasts Undisturbed. On the following Sunday tho nest was completed, and contained five eggs, and on 3jbe succeeding Sunday one of the robins sat on the eggs right through the services. Four young birds have been hatched out, and the mother flew in and out of the chapel last Sunday with food for her young.

It was no use being content with old metnois. If there was anj'thing wrong with the methods then let them try new ones. But their meetings, undoubtedly, did do good. They gave those who were already teetotallers ideas to employ in tiieir everyday life in trying to convert ncn-abstainers. The number in trying to convert ncn-abstainers.

DESPERATE WORK ABOARD SHiP. -<> INTOXICATED WITH OIL FUMES. On Saturday the oil-tank steamship Kasbek, Captain Briges, from Batoum for London, arrived at Dartmouth for coals. The captain reported that while at Marcus Hook, Batoum, a leak was discovered in one of the tanks, and as it was unsafe to use lamps, the tanks being full of gas generated from the remnants of previous cargoes, Captain Briggs tried the experiment of deflecting solar light some twenty- seven lest into the dark hold. This was success- fully accomplished by means o £ :a number ofhighly- polished plates or mirrors, members of the crew being so stationed as to reflect the sun's rays from the mirrors mto the hold. A flood of light at least ten feet square was thus thrown across the leaking joint until it had been thoroughly repaired. The work, however, wa.s at- tended with considerable da.nger to the men, who ran great risk of being suffocated by the dense fumes of accumulated gas. Ropes were tied round their bodies, and every few minutes they were hauled to the deck for fresh air. Sonae of them actually became intoxicated with the fames, and were haulej up laughing and in some cases crying. Captain Briggs, who went down to superintend the work.remained there too, long, and was drawn up in an unconscious condi- tion, >nd did not regain consciousness for several hours,

WELSH DISESTABLISHMENT. -<r- THE ACTION OF THE FOUR, The Rev. EmlYn Jonas dees not at ell agree with the four Welsh M.Ps. in their revolt. He tays they are simply Welsh Redmondites. he present time was not an opportune one. The Welsh members should he united in their action. This revolt will be a seriors b'ow to Disestablish- ment, Supposing, queried Mr. Jones, that the Liberal party would be returned to power at the next general election with a substantial mnjority, irrespective of the Irish and Welsh members, what could the members for Wales expect from the Government ? Could they then with freedom approach the leaders ? No! Mr. Jones had im- plicit faith in the Government, that they really meant to push Disestablishment to the front and do all they can for Wales. The present action of the discontented members was only playing into the hands of the enemy. A house divided againt itself will surely fall. JUr. Tom John, idwynypia, on the other band, is very decidedly with ihe Revo'ters." and agin the Government and the whole lot who condemn the Welshmen v. ho have boldly pioneered tho independent policy which must prevail in the future. Great stress, he says, is laid nyon the fact that the Government has introduced the Bill, and tha.t Mr. A?qnith has charge of it. "Tooma-ny irons in the fire," a-s far as the introducirg of Bills go, would be appro- priate; and the Welsh Bill was even cut-rusted to a Minister who was actually on the eve ùë mar- riage aud contemphting festivity. I am convinced that it is hopelsss to expect any practical result this Session,-or, indeed, during tho existence of this Government from the introuu tiou of any Bill Disestablishment is the Welsh demand, and the mere in roduction and second reading are not going to satisfy the deep earnestness of the Welsh people. The whole business is a burlesque. The life of the Government is only a matter of months, and to Wales shattered hopes, The half- hearted introduction or the Bill at the eleventh hour of its existence can only serve the doubtful ] blind to Wales to renew oar trust and confidence 1 on their appeal for another return to power. "Y j taera phia" we say in Wales, and this maxim 1 must be put into active reality in Welsh political tactics. "Trust the Government," is a very plausible advice, but "squeeze the Government" is infinitely more serviceable. Tiie Independent Party for Wules has been founded at last by the gentlemen who are to-day pioneering ti:e movement. I n,hold them, as I interpret their action as the most expedient and expressive move which W aljs can adopt. The spirit of this revolt will live, and in its incarnation it will be a convincing rallying principle at the next election, which wili be Goon.¡:¡ MEETING AT FLINT. Mr. Lloyd-George, M.P.. speaking at Flint en Saturday night,said the Welsh womb: rs demanded, if necessary, an Autumn Session for parsing the Welsh Disestablish.; ieno Bill. The tiWh mem- bers were practically in the same bjat as the Welsh, and no objection to an Autumn Session cams from the Irish benches. Waits had support-d the Liberal Party at a great sacnf.ce for 26 years, and what they now aslied v, s surely not too muo.h, Mr. D. A. Thomas, MP., challenge;! the other sldl" to give them liberty to open their mo :s as to the secret history of the Disestablish!; enl I'gtHtion. Them the whole o: Wales would • o v.wi -item to a man.

Sir JOHN LLEWELYN, in a, brief speech, thanked ¡ them from tho bot:om of his heart for flie kindly feeling which had prompfce them to make such a handsome presentation. In public life he had always tried to do his dutv, and it behoved every young man to do the best for l ip country, his town, and his neighbours.

SARASATE ON THE VIOLIN. The groat Spanish violinist has been talking ak.ut himself to a writer in the "Musical News," who was anxious to know what hygienic measures" Sehor Saras ate took to husband his strength. With such nutters he never concerned himself, was the repiy. '"I drink beer like a German, smoke cigarettes like a Spaniard, sue', find myself ucna the worse. I am nearly tiA.y years of age, yet nevc-r feii my hand steadier on the finger-boarc than now. Of course I uet very tiren comctiuiea 1 am ti reel rr;.v. for having played at j five cor certs this week, but a little rest scon put# me right agairi. Fortunately I can sleep when travelling at _night, and it is sleep which mini ro-es the fatigue more than anything. J prartk* very little, except when studying new pieces. It i. c irious how in that respect artists dilrer. Take pianists, for instance, Saint-Saens, who played hia own concerto at the Philharmonic on the occasion of his last visit here, had not practised for twelve months, having been too much absorbed in com- T;o,itia;1; yet- how magnifientlcy he played, with what dignity, ease, and unerring technique. M. Paderewski studies for seven or eight hours daily, so as to keep his fingers lissome. There ?kis tho secret. I believe my hand is lissome b.-oause the bo.ic.5 are small, and rehearsals and concerts are almost encugh practice for me. Now, large finder joints must require more mc«\eraent to keep them fioxible. As I said before, I never felt my hand more certain than row. Formerly I had always an hour's practice before playing in public, bui* now 1 do not eyen need that." Atww-erU-.R the nw-Tion r.s to his ideal violinist-, Sara-m'e said:—Without hes .OB I reply iter.ri Wie'.dawski. He was equally perfect in all the styjes, in classical, romantic, or virtuoso mmic. 1 am proud to be. long to hi? fchoci of playing, the Latin sc1W>l the schcol which insists above all on the viciix being made to sing. Wv play without undue pres- sure of thp how cn the siring, with the violin held in fronr., not hucred by the left cheek, nor scraped by tbe beard. w:-th the head up and thc wrist free* lu so the tone comes freely, naturally, easily. HOW SAVAGES HUNT. In the pursuit of game the savage is a mistpr vi the art of deception. Deerstalking among the Dog-rib Indians is managed by a skilful counterfeit of the animal. Two hunters walk together, the man behind with bent body, He one in front carry- ing a stag's head. The le^s of the men serve very well for the fore and hind legs of the animal, in this way the hunters g&c almost in the midst of a herd of deer before these fcre aware of danger. The o-strich is hunted in a similar way by the1 of South Africa and the Eskimos sometimes pome to close quarters with seals by dressing themselves ill seaLkin3 and dexterously mimicking the Ftyh of swimming and "flopping" no eharaeteriste cf the animal. The Indians of the Central Plains (Noith America) get amongst a herd of bison by covering their bodies with the skir, of the prairie wolf: whilst, by the Hottentots, the bnffalo has himself been trained to hunt, being- gnided by a string attached to his horn, the hunter meanwhile crouch- ing behind him. In Australia the natives bring the wallaby or young kangaroo within the range of the spear by suspending a small bird's skin and feathers from the end of a long rod and imitating the bird's cry. The artfulness of the Australian is also shown by his method of taking waterfowl. The coast people are usually excellent swimmers, and they will get amongst a flock of dupks by swimming long distances wider water and breathing through a reed, or they wid merely cover the head with weed and swim, without causing a ripple, until tney are within reach of the birds, which the, quietly pull m-der one by one without giving alarm to the rest of the flock. This latter is perhaps the simplest form of duck-hunting, and seems to have bsen noticed in father parts of the world.—"Cham. bers's Journal 1

CRICKET. WARWICKSHIRE v. NOTTS. Bleak and cold weather attended this match at the County Ground, Birmingham to-dav (Men- da v), and the attendance was not lar^e when the, gume commenced. Nocts, who was without Shrewsbury and Mr. Wright, and v ho played Pick and another, commenced batting wiui. Dixon and Robinson, Whitehead and Knutton bowling, The latter was freely punished, Dixon and Gunn played excellent erie-ec together, the amateur punishing Knutton severely, so Sniiton relieved the fast bowler. The pair took the score to 81, when Gunn was bowled bv a ball which bscue In tremendously from leg. Upon the game being resumed after luncheon Shiltoa and Pallelt had ciuir-e o:'Li e bov.-iing, and although the batsmen did. no' so re freely they rarely seemed in danger of io^-i: t' ;r wickets.

Mason was bow lea a, 37 biu, then matters went badly, live wickets being down at luncheon for 51. After lunch the Kent batsmen fared badly before the bowling of J.

He lay last to the distance, when he took third place to Hombre and Heremon, but he never improved it. Heremon challenged half-way up, and was beaten, after a pretty race, by a neck. Immediately after they had passed the post Pen* sioner fell, put his head on the ground, gave twe or three kicks, and suddenly expired-no doubt from disease of the heart, From a statement made by T. Loates it appears that it was not Aborigine who swerved on to KiK sailaghan in the Manchester Cup and knocked him out of his stride, but Progression. In the haze that p.-evailad it was impossible to tell the slate 'acket. of Progression from the white of, Aborigine.
