As the result of personal investigations into the alleged marvellous cures of cancer wrought by two humble herbalists named Evans at Penybanc, Cardigan, to whom sufferers have been flocking from all parts of the world, an illustrated article from the pen of Dr. Walter, H. R. Hadwen appears in a leading British weekly. DR. HADWEN claims to have succeeded in unravelling the mystery."

Alderman Llewellyn, the owner of a big grocery shop in the town, was prepared to let his assistants live out, but as he would not pay more than 10s. per week in the assistants' wages, as an equiva- lent, they refused to return to work, con- tending that they ought to get 12s. But despite mass meetings, processions, &c., by the Assistants' Union, Alderman Llewellyn was not to be bullied into submission, and the strikers confessed on Saturday to being defeated.
