Ton-Pentre Police Court. Monday.—Before the Stipendiary (Mr. D. Lleufer Thomas), Messrs. T. P. Jen- kins, Enoch Davies, Alderman William Morgan, Messrs. W. T. Jones, D. W. Davies, J. D. Williams, and R. S. Griffiths. TIMBER STEALING. Arthur Naigh and Edw. Williams, collier-boys, were charged with stealing a quantity of firewood, value 3d., the pro- perty of Ed. Leader, coal-dealer, Pentre. P.C. Bankes said that at 5 p.m. 24tli September he saw both defendants on the Pentre Colliery tip. Naigh was cutting up a bundle of firewood, and was pre- paring to carry them away, whilst Wil- liams was cutting up a Norway post ready to carry it away. Later in the evening, defendants were taken to the Police Station and charged. Defendants were fined 5s. each. John Carter, labourer, at the Britannic Merthyr Colliery, Gilfach Goch, was also charged with stealing three pieces of fire- wood from the colliery premises. P.S. Bowen proved the case. A fine of 5s. was imposed. A similar fine was imposed upon Wm. Harris, also of Gilfach Goch. Robert John Plenty, Gilfach Goch, was charged with stealing 11 Norway posts, value 4s., the property of the Britannic Merthyr Colliery, Gilfach Goch. P.S. Bowen, who proved the case, said that defendant used the posts as a stand for a pigeon cot. Defendant was fined 20s. IN POOR CIRCUMSTANCES. William Evans, collier, Blaenycwm, was charged with stealing a quantity of coal from the Blaenycwm Colliery, the property of the Glynrhondda Coal Com- pany. Defendant said that he was in very poor circumstances. A fine of 10s. was imposed. DASTARDLY ATTACK UPON WIFE. David Bartlett, a young Pentre collier, was charged with assaulting his wife, Rosamond Bartlett, on the 12th Septem- ber. Mr. T. Millward, solicitor, Pentre, who appeared for complainant, and who de- scribed the assault as a. most ferocious one, said that the parties were married on 4th June, 1906. Complainant obtained a separation order on 15th July, 1907, and the arrears under the order amounted to jE27 5s. Complainant, proceeded Mr. Millward, had been several times assaulted by her husband, but these were passed by. On the 12th of September-the assault now investigated—lie knocked her down in the street, her eyes were closed —one remaining in that state until the following Wednesday evening. He also knocked two of her teeth out, and kicked her very badly in her side. She was ren- dered unconscious, and remained so until the following Wednesday evening. Dr. Ernest Blacker, assistant to Dr. E. Hughes, Ton, was the first to give evidence. He said that he first saw com- plainant on the 15th September. He found a contusion over the left side of the jaw, her right eye was discoloured, her lips, were very swollen, and there was an abrasion over the nose and on the left brow. There was another contusion over the right hip, and she complained of severe headache. There were also two teeth missing. Witness examined her that (Monday) morning, and found she was still suffering more or less from shock and headache. The complainant said she now lived with her father at 41, Co-operative St., Ton-Pentre. She declared that on the night of the assault she, accompanied by her parents and sister, attended a meet- ing at Tonypandy. Returning from the meeting, they separated, her parents going home in a car before herself and her sister. When the car reached the Bridgend Hotel, Ystrad, she proceeded home with her sister, and on reaching Incline Row, met her husband. He caught hold of her by the throat, and struck her in the face. She did not remember any more until she found her- self in bed, where she had to remain for a week. She was now suffering very much from the attack. When she re- covered consciousness1 two of her teeth were missing, her lips were swollen, and she could not see with her right eye for a week. Her hip was also very painful. Defendant: Did I not come on to speak with you, and you attempted to strike me with an umbrella?—No. Was it not in trying to knock the umbrella from your hand that I struck you in the face, and you fell down?—No. E'liz. Ann Jones, complainant's sister, corroborated complainant's story, and said that defendant struck his wife four blows. As witness ran to get help she saw defendant throw her sister to the ground, and kick her as she lay there. When witness remonstrated, defendant declared that he would kill his wife and would also kill witness if she did not give up screaming. Evan. Owen Bird, insurance agent, said that he heard a, scream, and on hearing a, second, proceeded in the direction whence the scream issued. He saw com- plainant lying on the ground uivaoiiscious, and he assisted in carrying her home. Methuselah Jones, complainant's father, said that complainant and her sister were so much afraid of defendant that they would not go out alone. Inspector Edwards described complain- ant's condition as he saw her on the night of the assault, and said she must have been badly abused in some way or another. Defendant, on oath, said that he watched his wife's movements on the night of the assault, and saw that she was being, followed by a young man. When he met her near Incline Row, she attempted to strike him, and in warding off the blow he struck her in the face, and she fell down. Under examination by the Bench, defendant said that he was too much frightened to pick his wife up.

AFTER SIXTEEN MONTHS.
His Worship said that the demeanour of the defendant in the dock showed him to be a very callous creature^ and was in itself a corroboration of his cruel attack upon his wife. It was a most dastardly act, and defendant would be committed to one month's imprisonment with hard labour. AFTER SIXTEEN MONTHS. Clara Eillen Cullm, Ystrad, summoned her husband, Edgar Cullin, Llwynypia, for desertion. Mr. Godfrey Phillips, Pontypridd, appeared for the complain- ant. Complainant said that her husband left her on May 29th, 1909, after living to- gether for sixteen months. He came back on the following Wednesday and took most of the furniture. Her case had been adjourned for three months to effect a settlement, but she had not seen defen- dant since, and he had not paid her a penny. An order of 10s. a week was made. ORDER REDUCED. Edward Wood, Pentre, applied for a reduction of a maintenance order of 10s. per week to his wife, Mary Ann Wood, and their child. as he had taken over the custody of the child which was in his wife's possession when the order was made. Applicant said that his earnings had been reduced and were now very small, and he had another order of 3s. Gd. a week to pay. His wife consented to a reduction of 3s. 6d. The order was then made to 6s. 6d. a week. DRUNKS. Lucy Bear, Treorchy, 10s. Dd. T. Thomas, Tynewydd, 15s. Thomas Kinsey, Tynewydd, 10s. Price Brooks, Gilfach Goch, 15s. Benj. Thomas, Treorchy, 10s.

Porth Police Court.
Porth Police Court. Thursday.—Before the Stipendiary (Mr. D. LIeufer Thomas), Dr. T. W. Parry and Dr. Ivor Davies. FAN ENGINEMAN ASLEEP. George Burnham, fan engineman at the Cilely Colliery, Tonyrefail, was summoned for a breach of the Ooal Mines Regu- lation Act. Mr. Prosser (Messrs. Ken- shole, Aberdare) prosecuted for the owners, and Mr. A. T. James, Ponty- pridd, defended. Jenkin Lewis, haulier, said that on the night of the 17th August he was sent for by the manager, and together they went to the fan engine-house, where they found defendant fast asleep. They had to prod him with sticks to wake him. Mr. James, for the defendant, admitted the offence, but pleaded in mitigation that, having had to attend to the fan machinery, he became drowsy through coming in contact with the foul air, and was overcome with sleep. He was a very respectable man, and had been severely punished in being instantly dismissed. The Stipendiary, in view of the fact that defendant had been discharged, dis- missed him with a caution. STIPENDIARY'S REGRET. Harriet Steward (married), Wattstown, was charged with using obscene language to a neighbour, Mrs. Emma, Norman. The Stipendiary, after hearing the case, said he was sorry that he could not deal with defendant as they did in olden days, by putting her in the ducking stool. You will be fined 15s. added his Worship. Defendant: I'll go to Cardiff; you'll never get the money from me. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AT MARDY. A married woman of Mardy, named Maria Francis, was charged with at- tempted suicide. William Francis, son of defendant, said that about half-past seven on Sunday, the 12th ult., defendant fetched a razor from a cupboard. When asked what she was going: to do with it, she replied, "Nothing." His mother then went out to the back. and witness went and told his sister. Ten minutes later his mother returned. Blood ran from her throat, and Dr. Morris was sent for. Mary Ann Francis, daughter, said that after what her brother told her, she went to the field at the back of the house, and saw her mother. She was then, all right, and no razor was to be seen. When, however, her mother returned a short time afterwards, blood was running from her throat. Defendant was sober at the time, but had been drinking heavily pre- viously. Dr. Glanville Morris, Mardy. gave evidence of examination, and said there was a wound in the throat in which, he put seven stitches. Defendant told him that she had done it to relieve rheu- matism. The case was remanded for a week. BENCH'S ADVICE TO CLERGY. George Buck and Nicholas White, Penygraig, were fined 30s. for stealing coal from the Naval Colliery. The Stipendiary, in imposing the fine. said that clergy, ministers and all in- terested in the public morals of the Rhondda should emphasise that taking coal from colliery tips was stealing. He was continually having respectable people before him upon this charge. He thought that the people were under a wrong im- pression, and didn't think that this was stealing. INEBRIATES. W.

Modern Languages. Success of Dr. Goelz's Pupils. The following successes in Modern Lan- The following successes in Modern Lan- guages, obtained by students of the Evening Classes conducted by Dr. Goelz during the past session, have come to hand, and we have great pleasure to facilitate their publicity, viz. (a) In the examinations of the London Chamber of Commerce held in April and May last respectively — In French (Bridgiend Centre).—(1) Ed- ward Ernest Sly, Pass with Double, Honours; (2) Arthur Phillips, Pass with Double Honours; (3) Mary Phillips, Pass with Distinction. In German (Port Talbot Centre).—Miss O'Sullivan, Pass with Double Honours. In Spanish (Port Talbot Centre).—Chas. Bennin, Pass. (b) In the Society of Arts examina- tion — In French (Bridgend Centre).—(1) Miss Bertha David, Pass in Stage III. (2) Edward Ernest Sly, Pass in Stage III. (3) Arthur Phillips, Pass in Stage III. (4) Howell Thomas, Pass in Stage III. (5) Lewis John Clee, Pass in Stage II. (6) Mr. Evans, Pass in Stage I. (7) Miss Mary Phillips, Pass in Stage I. It is pleasing to see from, the foregoing successes in a more and needful becoming branch of our Techinacl Education that our County Lecturer in Modern Lan- guages does not lose any possible oppor- tunity to secure every available advan- tage to the more able and industrious students of his classes. We shall indeedl be glad to see teachers of other branches and spheres follow the example of Dr. Goelz in their own respective spheres of work. It is singular, if not significant, as it would appear from the official examina- tion returns, that students of his classes have—so far—been the only candidates in modern languages (and apparently in any other subject) who succeeded or pre- sented themselves for these examinations in Wales, or even elsewhere in the United Kingdom—i.e., from Technical Evening Classes pure and simple.

Local Wedding, THOMAS-HENRY. Miss H. M. Thomas (organist at Carmel Chapel), daughter of Mr. Thos. Thomas, Morlais House, Treherbert, and Mr. Edward Henry, under-manager at Bute Merthyr Collieries, Treherbert, were the contracting parties in a very interesting wedding which was solemnised at Tre- herbert last Thursday. The couple were united at Carmel (W.C.) Chapel, which was gaily decorated for the occasion. The bride appeared at the church arrayed in a white lace and embroidered Directoire gown, and a hat trimmed with white plumes. The bridesmaid, Miss Edwards, Cardiff (niece of bridegroom), was dressed in a, pale Saxe blue costume. with hat to match. Mr. William Henry (manager of Bute Merthyr Collieries) was best man. Mr. 0. Ratcliffe, Cardiff, also accompanied the party. As the party proceeded up the aisle of the chapel, a wedding march was played on the organ by Mrs. Jones. Mr. Thomas Thomas gave the, bride away. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. J. Pethian Davies (pastor). From a, very early hour on Thursday morning until noon, salutes were fired in the neighbour- hood of the Bute Collieries. The honey- moon is being spent at Bournemouth. j
Doan's Inquiry Resumed.|
Doan's Inquiry Resumed. ANOTHER TONYPANDY REPORT. The representative specially commis- sioned to investigate the Tonypandy cures of kidney and bladder troubles by Doan's Backache Kidney Pills, reported in the local Press during the past few years, forwards the following statement by a Tonypandy man. Mr. John Hughes, of 174, Kenry Street, Tonypandy, says —" I have no doubt it is ten years since I had the first sign of kidney and bladder disorder; there was a smarting pain in passing the water, which was thick and gravelly, and there was a frequent desire to pass it. When I stooped there were stabbing; pains in my back. Having a lot of bending at my work, I was subject to backache. I tried many medicines, but it was only Doan's Backache Kidney Pills that suited me. When I had taken one box of them I could do my work without so much difficulty, and I decided to keep on with the pills. A thorough' course of them quite relieved me of all the kidney and bladder trouble. I hope my experience will be of help to other sufferers. (Signed) John Hughes." Four years after his cure, Mr. Hughes said —" Time has served to increase my confidence in Doan's Backache Kidney Pills; they made me well after a great deal of suffering, and they have kept me well. The pills deserve all the recom- mendation I give them." Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are two shillings and ninepence per box, or six boxes for thirteen shillings and ninepence.

For fully 4 years I suffered terribly with Eczema and great swellings in my feet. I could not wear stockings of any kind, but had to wrap linen around my feet, which I had to change three and four times a day, owing to discharges. I tried many ointments without success. I therefore gave E'll-Wel a trial, and am pleased to say that I had relief with the first application, and two boxes effected a complete cure, that being eight months ago.
