Y GENINEN. Yr ysgrif arweiniol yn y rhifyn hwn o'r Geninen ydyw-" Cymru Gyfan, Cymru Sydd, a Chymra Grefyddol," gan y Parch. Ganon Williams, B.D., Ty Ddewi. Cymer yr awdwr parchedig olwg fanol ar y pwnc yr ymdrinia ag ef yn ei holl agweddau, a hyny mewn ysbryd teg, boneddigaidd, a Christionogol. Cydn^bydd y teimlad, neu y deffroad cenedlaethol yn Nghymru, a dywed mai yr hyn sy'n angenrheidiol ydyw- rhoddi cyfeiriad priodol iddo, a'i gadw o fewn terfynau penodedig. Llwyr anghymeradwya y waedd wirionffol am Gymrn i'r Cymry-" Wales for the Welsb,ac y mae befyd yn bollol groes i'r cri am Ymreolaeth i Gymru yn yr ystyr y gofynir am dano gan y Gwyddelod i'r Iwerddon. Dywed mai yr hyn sydd yn angenrheidiol ydyw— gwneyd iawn ddefnydd o'r gradd o lywodraetb leol sydd genym yn barod, os na ellir cael gradd helaethach o lywodraethiad, heb beryglu yr undeb mawr canolog yn Lundain.

Mewn atebiad i'r cwestiwn- Pa allu sydd i gyfanu Cymru "P dywed nad oes un gallu mewn bodolaeth fel gallu crefydd, a'i fod o'r sred mai Hen Eglwys ein Tadau fydd, dan fendith Duw, yn gvfrwng undeb yn y dyfodol, fel y bu yn yr amser aeth heibio.

Mewn perthynas a'r ail fater yn yr sef "Cymru Sydd," dywed fod llawer o yniffiostio arn "Gyrnru Fu," a llawer o siarad ac ysgrifena am Cymru Fydd," ond nid cymaint o yrodrecbion geir i wneyd Cymru Sydd yr hyn a ddylai fnd. Hawdd iawn breuddwydio am y dyfodol. Ond i ddyfod at brif bwnc yr ysgrif, sef "Cymru Grefyddol." Er nad yw eyflwr orefyddol Cymra yr hyn a ddylai a'r hyn a allai fod. dywed fod rhai ppthau yn ein plitb yn obeithiol, a'r rhagolygon yo ddisglaer. Hyd yn byn, nid yw yr ben Gymry wedi colli bias ar wrando yr Efengvl, nac yehwaith wedi colli eu hanwy!deb at grefydd," &c. Wet. beth syrid yn eisiau ? Pa le mae y diffyg? ''Rhaid cydnabod mai prif angen Cymru y dyddiau hyn ydyw bod o dan ddylanwadau grasuslawn yr Ysbryd Sanct- aidd yn ei holl weithrediadau acbubol a dyddanol." Eto Yr ydym yn cyd-ddal y prif athrawiaeth- au, yn enwedig y rhai sydd yn troi o amgylch Person Dwyfol Crist. Am yr Eglwys y 11 a'r Ymneillduwyr uniongred, nid oes ond megis clawdd bychan rhyngom. dros yr hwn y gailwn edrycb yn garedig- y naill ar y Ilall, ie, ac ysgwyd llaw a'n gilydd." Wrth derfynu, awgryma awdwr parchedig yr erthygl clri chy&llju er dwyn oddiamgylch Ad-undeb Eglwysig. (1) "Un o'r amodau a osodwvd i lawr yn Ngbynadledd Lambeth, 1SS8, sef cyfarfod a chynrychiolwyr yr Ymneillduwyr uuiongred i ymgynghori ar y pwnc (2) pe y ceid gwell cyd-ddealltwriaeth, ac y creid ysbryd cariadus a brawdgarol, oni fyddai yn bcsibl, mewn amser, cael gan yr Ymneillduwyr, neu y goreuon o bonynt, nesau ychydig at undeb gweledig trwy ymuno bawb o honynt yn Eglwys y plwyf lie y trigont o'r hyn lleiaf dair gwaith yn y flwyddyn, yn 01 rheol yr Eglwys Gellid wed 'yn edrych ar eu gwahanol gyfandebau fel yn dal cysylltiad a'r Eglwys," &c. (3) Cael gan yr holl Ymneillduwyr a'r Egiwyswyr benodi un wyfhnos i weddio am undeb, brawdgarwch, a chariad Cristionogol, fel y gwneir yn Scotland. Y mae hyn yn ymdiangos i ni, fodd bynag, yn llawer mwy ymarferol nag nn o'r ddau gynllun If arall. Cenfydd y darllenydd mai prif nod ac amcan yr ysgiif hon yn y "Geninen" ydyw gwneyd Hen Eglwys y Cymry yn ganolbwynt Aduniad Eglwysig. Ond y mae'rsyniad o ddwyn yr Ymneillduwyr i ryw fath o undeb gweledig a'r Eglwys drwyymnnoyn Eglwys y plwyf oleiaf'dair gwaith yn v flwyddyu, ac ar yr un pryd caniatau iJdynt ryddid i weitbredu mewn gradd o annibyn- iaeth, fei y gwneir t'r Trefedigaethau mewn yistyr wladol," yn ymddangos i ni yn gynllun hollol j auymarferol. Pwy sydd i benderfynu y gradd bwn o Annibyniaeth neu Ymreolaeth Eglwysig:' A buasai dda genym wybod a wnai Canon Williams gydnabod y gwahanol gyfundebau Ymneillduol yn eglwysi rbeolaidd "? Ond, pa t)dd bynag am hyny, nid oes berygl i'r enwadau Ymneillduol, er mor aiddgar ydynt dros Ymreolaeth, ymostwug i dderbyn teleran o'r fath, a tbrwy hyny ymwrthod â'u hegwyddorinn fel Anghydffurfwyr. Ein cred ddiysgog ni ydyw fod nid yn unig undeb corffor- aethol, ond unrhyw fath o gysylltiad hanerog, fel yr hyn a awgrymir gan y boiuddwr parchedig, ar hyn o bryd. o lejaf. yn beth hollol anmhosibl. Yr unig undeb a ellir yn r'uesyinol ddisgwyl yn bresenol ydyw cvdweitbrediad gydag achosion a symudiadau cymdeithasol a chrefyddol, ac edrych ar eu gilydd fel cydweithwyr dros Dduw a'u gwlad.

A NEW BIBLE! A correspondent of the Manchester Guardian states that it has been resoived to publish a new Welsh Revised Edition of the Holy Bible, the work to be done by competent Welsh fcholars. This sort of tale is to be taken with a piuch of salt. It ii very much like a statement we have often beard in this locality that there is every likelihood that the Talargoch mines will shortly be restarted." IMPUDENT CYCLISTS. Judge Owen told a cyclist at Pontypool the other day that bicycle riders seemed to think that the King's highway was made for them only. All the King's subjects, he said, bad jast as much right to the road as they had. They thought that because they rang a bell everybody must rush out of their way. The other day an endan- gered pedestrian at Aberystwyth put his walking stick between the wheels, and in a moment there was a heap of iron and humanity in the roadway. There is a great deal of too rapid riding in the streets of Rhyl. The person who is guilty of it will ring his bell, and if you do not clear off he will ride you down. But the difficulty is to know which side to clear off to, for the cyclist may be upon you on either, and he does not ring his bell until he is within a few feet of riding you down.

OUR FOOTBALL COLUMN. In the Football League competition on Saturday Everton defeated Bolton \Vanderers 3.1, Liverpool Everton defeated Bolton Wanderers 3-1, Liverpool triumphed over Middlesbrough 5-0, Derby County beat Sunderland 5-2, Sheffield Wednesday won the game with Notts Forest 4-1, Wolver- hampton Wanderers that with Newcastle United 3 0, West Bromwich Albion the one with Aston Villa 3-0. The Grimsby-Notts County and Black- burn Ro\ers-Stoke games were drawn. Lancashire beat Cheshire by 6 points to 5 in the Rugby Union County Championship. The following are the results of Saturday's Com- bination matches Witton Albion 2, Middlewich 2. Rhyl 3, Newton-le-Willows 0. Chirk 2, Winsford 1. .¡(- Notes by Observer. At last Now we have tasted the sweets of vic- tory in Combination warfare, there ought to be no assuaging our thirst for more of it. But the glcrious uncertainties of football restrain us from soundinv our trumpet too noisily at present. The Grange Road enclosure on Saturday was only moderately lined by spectators when the teams put in an appearance, the competing clubs being represented as follows :-Rhyl goal, T M Jones; backs, Ogilvie and V Jones; halves, Brookes R Hughes, and Parry; forwards, Matthews, Wel- lings, T E Hughes, Thomas, and Roberts. Newton- le-Willows goal, Jenkinson; backs, Raynor and Ashton halves, Smart, Bell, and Butler; for- wards, Sharpies, Valentine, Munro, Brookes, and Cook. The referee, Mr R. Hersee, Llandudno, having given the signal, the visitors started operations, and their first shot at goal was from their out- side right winger, which was repulsed. After this look-in the homesters had a turn, the result being a line combined run, and, unfortunately, a final shot just a little too wide by Roberts. Subsequently both teams were pulled up for off-side play when in dangerous positions. For about 20 minutes the ball was driven from end to end in a thoroughly business-like manner, and then a drenching shower swept over the field, threatening to interrupt the game. Happily for the homesters this did not happen, for they were then pressing their opponents hard, and wi^h a splendid shot Roberts opened the score, the effort beinsr greeted most enthusiastically. Rhyl attacked again, an unproductive corner being their reward; and then the visitors gave their opponents a fright, for Jones only just managed to clear a eroupder from Valentine, who had a grand opportunity of scoring. Rhyl took advantage of the relief afforded, and the ball was rushed to the other end, thanks chiefly to a fine individual run by T E Hughes. A corner ensued, and Matthews, receiving the ball from Roberts, scored No 2, the oau giving Jenkinson no chance as it rebounded from the upright. Following up the ding-dong play that had so far characterised the game, Newton again resorted to aggressive tactics. The home goal escaped downfall by the proverbial hair's breadth, and Jones was forced to concede a corner, from which also the visitors missed a grand opportunity of opening their account. Hereabouts Vernon Jones made his presence felt considerably, and when the local quintette again got going Thomas was applauded for a deserving but unproductive attempt, while directly after a good chance was spoilt by a misunderstanding between Tellis and Roberts. The spectators with true sportsmanship heartily applauded another splendid attempt by the visitors to break their "duck." Becoming too eiger, however, they lost ground through getting offside. Nothing resulted from the brief invasion of the opposite end, and the ball being returned, Jones saved in the nick of time from the visiting centre after Vernon Jones had been floored in an attempt to check his progress. Another excellent opening presented itself to the visitors, but they seemed blind to it. As a result they were driven back, and only the repetition of offside play prevented the homesters increasing their lead. At half-time thg score was: Rhyl 2, Newtown-le- Willows 0. < "Hard lines, Thomas" was the earliest noteworthy exclamation of the spectators after the resumption of hostilities. The homesters were attacking vigorously, and even Vernon Jones was not to be denied a shot or two at goal, while Matthews gal e the visiting stick-minder a very unpleasent hand- ful, which he successfully negotiated. From another shot by the same player the ball dropped on the crossbar and rolled to the wrong side. Ogilvie, from the goal kick, again gave the home for- wards possession, and getting at fairly close quarters, Roberts let fly with a shot which Jen- kiuson should have allowed to go past. Unfortu- nately for Newton, he stepped aside as though to prevent an unnecessary goal kick, and in his effort to save he diverted the ball into the net, thus registering No. 3 for Rhyl. Ihis was an unpleasant surprise which woke up the visitors considerably. They were met by a sturdy defence, and unable to keep up the pressure any longer, they had also to resort to defensive measures. Thomas struck the upright as the result of a capital pass by Parry, and shortly after the same p'ayer, when in a dangerous position,was tripped. A penalty was vociferously demanded, and very properly awarded, but Matthews, to whom it was entrusted, shot into the goalkeeper's hands, the latter clearing in a praiseworthy manner. Brookes, R Huehes, Wellings, and Roberts having tested Jenkinson, the visitors made tracks for the Rhyl goal, but a yelp from a dog standing about midway between the goal and the corner flag betrayed their poor judgment as to the where- abouts of the net, the unsuspecting animal being unceremoniously bowled over as a result of a shot from the right wing. Close upon time the visiting custodian saved splendidly from Roberts, and when the final was announced with the score 3-0 in favour of Rhyl, the homesters were still attacking. » Rhyl undoubtedly won upon their merits, but the most impartial observer must own up that they did not by any means treat their opponeuts as severely as they might have done. Newton were not without their bright particular stars, I notably the two backs and the left half-back. The latter proved himself a great stumbling-block to the Rhyl right-wingers, but the opposite wing (Roberts and Thomas) were more than a match for their opponents. The forwards would have accomplished more effective work had they exhibited more dash, a quality which is as essential to goal scoring as combination. If we except R Hughes, who needs to exercise greater judgment when disposing of the ball, the local halves and backs played a reliable game, Vernon Jones proving himself a regular tower of strength. St. Helens Recreation 18, Rhyl Athletic 0 This is the sequel to a story which "Observer is forbidden to commont upon, great as is the temptation. Would it not be adding insult to injury to do so ? At least we shall see if others attempt the task. Rhyl Athletic Notes. Rhyl Athletic placed a senior team on the field for the first time last Saturday, and suffered a heavy defeat at St Helens in the third qualifying round of the English Cup competition. Notwithstanding their defeat (says a correspondent) they spent a most enjoyable day, and, better still, were rewarded with a substantial sum as the result of their visit. Messrs Alcock and Robinson, treasurer and secretary respectively, did smile when they set eyes upon such a huge crowd. It was esti- mated there were 700 boys alone on the ground. After the match the players sat down to a sumptuous repast at the expense of the Athletic at Liverpool. The Athletic intend to visit Liverpool again at Christmas, when they hope to place a strung team on the field. Whilst the senior cup team were doing so badly the amateur cup team were doing them- selves honour at home in their North Wales Coast League match against Colwyn Bay, which they won by six goals to nil. They are just now making a good show. To-day (Saturday) the Athletic senior team will meet Rhyl at Belle Vue Ground, Grange Road. in the Welsh Senior Cup competition. A good game is expected, as the Athletic team has been completely reorganised since the disaster at St Helens. Meanwhile the Athletic amateur team will meet. Denbigh at Denbigh in the second round for the North Wales Coast Junior Cup. Abergele Church Cuila v. Prestatyn Reserves. Played at Abergele last Saturday. Owing to several of the Reserves failing to put in an appear- ance the visiting team included four members of the first XI. The Guild played up well, and notched two goals early in the first half. Prestatyn, however, eventually won by six goals to two. Owing to the heavy rain the game was stopped 25 minutes before time. Scraps. A contemporary states that in the encounter between St Helens Recreation and Rhyl Athletic the visitors were altogether out-classed, and were seven goals in arrears at half-time. In the second portion the" Recs" put on no fewer than eleven goals, and won by 18-0. • In the same competition (English Cup-third qualifying rcund) Wrexham met Nantwich at VS rexbam. The home side had the best of matters, They led at half-time by one goal to nil, and adding goals in the latter moiety through Cane and Owens, won by 3-0. 7- In the first round of the Flint and Denbigh Charity Cup competition Chester, at home, after leading at half-time 4-0 beat Colwyn Bay 7—1. At Shotton the Rangers were beaten by Flint 6-1 in the first round of the Welsh Amateur Cup, the half-time score being 4—0.

Medicinal Qualities of Buttermilk. For summer beverage there can be nothing more strengthening than buttermilk. It is excellent for weak or delicate stomachs, and far better as a dinner drink than coffee, tea or water, and unlike them does not retard, but rather aids digestion. A celebrated physician once said that if everyone knew the value of buttermilk as a drink it would be more freely partaken of by persons who drink so excessively of other baverages and further com- pared its effects upon the system to the clearing out of a cook stove, that had been clogged up with ashes that have sifted through, filling up every crevice and crack, saying that the human system is like the stove, and collects and gathers refuse matter that can in no way be exterminated from the system so effectually as by drinking butter- milk. It is also a specific remedy for indigestion, soothes and quiets the nerves and is very somnolent to those who are troubled with sleeplessness. There is something strange in the fact that persons who are fond of buttermilk never tire of sinking its praises, while those who are not found of it never weary of wondering how some people can drink it. So far as possible, people should over- come their aversion to it and learn to drink it for health's sake. One gentleman of our acquaintance is so extremely fond of it that we knew him one time to drink about three glasses, then set his glass down with a thud, exclaiming earnestly as he smacked his lips, "That's food and raiment both while another buttermilk enthusiast made the statement once that where the liver has become lifeless from torpidity and inaction, and is too dead to perform its functions, buttermilk will cause a new one to grow in. Whatever exaggerated statements may have been made concerning butter- milk its medicinal properties cannot be overrated, and it should be more freely used by all who can get it. Everyone who values health "should drink buttermilk every day in warm weather and let tea and coffee, and water alone. For the benefi t. of those who are not already aware of it, I may add that in the churning the first process of digestion is gone through, making it one of the easiest and quickest of all things to digest. It makes gastric juice, and contains properties that readily assimi- late with little or no wear upon the digestive organs. —" Journal of Health." °

The William Jones' Fortune. The following letter was sent to an evening contemporary by Messrs Bromley, Jones & Co., solicitors, Mold In the" Echo" for Tuesday last, there ap- peared a paragraph concerning the above, in which it was stated that the Australian Courts had postponed the administration of this estate for seven years. At the time we thought that probably the word years" was a misprint for months," and that it would be rectified in your next issue, but instead of that there appeared a leading article on the above, wherein the word years" were reiterated. Inasmuch as considerable interest is being taken by the public in the matter, and in order to avoid them being misled, probably a statement of facts would not be inopportune, and they are as follows William Jones was born in Liverpool, but most of his relations lived in Flintshire. He emigrated to Australia fifty-two years ago. He died at West Foolscraig, Victoria, Aus- ralia, on the 13th of March, 1902, intestate, leaving an estate valued for duty at £3i,415 4s 6d. Administration was granted to one W. H. Robertson, who claimed to be a nephew. On the 7th August, 1902, upon the applica- tion of Edward Hooson (who alleged that the said W. H. Robertson was not next-of-kin to the deceased) an order was made by his Honour Mr Justice Beckett, in the Supreme Court of Victoria, directing that administration of the estate should not proceed for seven months from that date, and not years as stated I in the Echo." Inasmuch as we are acting for claimants in the matter, we are not at liberty to disclose the developments which have taken place since the above order was made.—Yours faithfully. BROMLEY, JONES, AND Co., Solicitors. Mold, Oct. 30, 1902.
