Next week an Entirely New Story, "HERR PAULUS" by MR WALTER BESANT. Will be commenced in the CARDIFF TIMES AND SOUTH WALES WEEKLY NEWS. Mi Besant in his novel, "All Sorts and Conditions of Men" suggested the People's Palace in East London. He is also the author of the Golden Butterfly," The World went very well then," Children of Gibeon," and other emi- nently successful stories. The Author describes Herr Paulus as a Story of modern life and manners. It treats of the Rise, the Greatness, and the Fall of an AlIventurer who comes to London In order to trade on the credulity of the circle which live among Spiritualists, Mediums," Esoteric Buddhists, Occult Philosophers. Thought Readers, and so forth. He does so, performing feats which far surpass anything previously achieved even by the most pretentious of charlatans. How these feats are accomplished the reader partly understands from the outset. How his Durpose changes, and from an unscrupulous adventurer, pretending to superna- tural powers, he descends to common earth again- how he confer the greatest benefits upon the family which receives him, and wins the friendship even of those most hostile and most suspicious of him—and how he finally departs, carrying with him the forgive- ness and the sympathy of all—including the reader- will be discovered in the progress of the story, which is full of incident and surprises.

WHO'S THE WINNER.
WHO'S THE WINNER. THE political world will be on the tiptoe of expectation to-day. Which way has North Hunts gone?" will be the burning problem of the morning. Has a miraculous victory been vouchsafed the Liberals a hope so optimist as scarcely to be expressed, but still calculated as a possible contingency—or has the more likely result of a Tory returned with a sadly diminished majority been the outcome of the battle ? But we will not have long to wait. Before many persons have breakfasted the news of the most exciting electoral contest of this decade should be promulgated, that is, if anticipation should be realised. We are promised the figures of 0 the ballot-box before this article will have reached some of our readers. But whichever way the die is cast, there is no doubt that nothing has been left undone on either side to ensure success. The Radicals have had a most losing game to play. The enemy has so long held the field, and possession, it should be remem- bered, is nine points of the law. In 1885 the majority against was 365, in 1886 the seat was considered such a forlorn hope as to be unattacked. A better spirit, however, has manifested itself, and on this occasion the place is not to be retained without one of the most. desperate struggles on record. .9 Never has a constituency been so thoroughly canvassed, never has so much political teaching been given in so short a period. The position, as it were, has had to be stormed at the point of the bayonet, and if our forces are defeated, no disgrace will accrue. The fort was almost impregnable, and if it should turn out to be so, neverthe- less it will be discovered that the onslaught upon it has most vitally weakened it. For centuries the agricultural labourer has been under the yoke of the squire, the parson, and the farmer, aud has been accus- tomed to gather his opinions upon all sub- jects from these souroes. Moreover, the world of politics is a terra incognita to him. He has only just gone to school the fran- chise to him is what a side pocket would be to a cow, he does not know what to do with it. In his perplexity he rushes off to his usual Mentors, and they train him up in the way he should go. Regard, then, the immense task which was set us to win. The first barrier to be broken down was the inherited bond- age which has oppressed these poor children of the soil. The effects of ages of submis- sion had to be encountered, and an attempt made to infuse the spirit of freedom. The work of hundreds of years to be eradicated in a few weeks Surely, even a Gar- gantuan effort would not be sufficient for such a colossal venture. Supposing this obstacle to be overcome, there were others equally strong. The education of the labourer has been neglected he has had no opportunity of acquiring any knowledge upon the vexed questions of the day. With the Irish he is unacquainted, save that he is aware that they migrate from some island and compete with him in securing the harvest. He does not trouble himself with the cause of this invasion, but is content with observing the effect, and that effect is decidedly disadvantageous to his wages. Thus the tiller of the soil is not partial to the sons of the Emerald Isle, and is willing to accept anything which may be said in disparagement of them. And, pray, what could be more natural ? The rivalry he experiences at their hands lowers his already miserable wage, and in consequence he is quite prepared to listen to any tale which his three masters, to do them credit, are never tired of pouring into his ear. In this instance the monster prejudice has to be encountered, and it can only be conquered by time. What could be done, then, in a few weeks ? Thirdly and lastly, the power of the FELLOW KS family has to be broken, and from all accounts their rule has been just, and more than just-merciful. It is stated that no tenant's rent has been raised for generations, and that when mis- fortune in any shape befell the dependents the great house not only arrived to the assistance with sympathy, but what is better than sympathy in such moments of trial- Money Here we have the most potent factor in the combat. Had the land- lords of Ireland, nay, of this country, acted with the wisdom and consideration of the noble family in Huntingdonshire, there would be peace for poor Erin, and many privileges which the owners of property once enjoyed would not have been curtailed and abro- gated, even though progress and right in- sisted upon the reforms. How true it is that a soft answer turneth away wrath, how true it is that kindness is generally repaid one hundredfold. There may be cynics who will try to controvert this statement. But the evidence they will adduce is that of the individual, not of the community. Mankind is invariably struggling for the good. The human race has not descended, but has ascended. It may be pointed out that in one century no advance has taken place, on the contrary, retrogression. Never- theless, upon the whole, the march has been, and is, forward. Like the incoming tide, one wave may not reach the mark of the other, but still for all that the great body of the water is not retreating. Notice in history that when the subjected races were treated with lenience they forgot their wounds, and lived most contentedly. Whilst Rome fol- lowed this policy she increased her territory and her sway, but the exactions of her foreign consuls speedily began to sap the prosperity of one of the mightiest of nations. Discontentment is a prolific breeder, so is contentme nt, but the progeny is,of course, different. We are convinced that the the influence of the FELLo WES family will prove the hardest obstacle to success. The labourers will argue, Well, what you may say is no doubt very true and fair, but the squire behaved very hand- some, and I should not like to go against him." However, Who's won will soon be flashed across the wires. That the members who have flooded the country with oratory have left a lasting im- pression behind them, and sown the seeds of victory in the future we do not doubt, but whether the exertion has been sufficient for the day the declaration of the poll must tell.
ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. NORTH HUNTINGDONSHIRE. THE POLLING. LETTER FROM MR GLADSTONE. Polling for the election of a member for the Northern or Ramsey Division of Hunts, in the place of Mr H. H. Fellowes, who has succeeded to the peerage ou the death of Lord de Ramsey, commencod on Tuesday, the candidates being Mr Ailwyn Fellowes (C.) and Mr J. Harris Sanders (G.L.). In 1885 the Conservative, majority was 365, and at the general election there was no contest. Up to noon the voting proceeded quietly, but more activity was evident among the supporters of both candidates. There was an absence of excitement, but deep interest was taken in the proceedings, Ramsey and St. Ives are the princi- pa polling stations, the former with 1,096, and the latter 1,012 voters. At three o'clock Mr Sander. the Liberal candidate, drove into the town in a four-in- hand, and was received with cheers. The voting proceeded steadily, but without much excitement, The following letter has been received by an elector from Mr Gladstone:—Sir,—Your letter of the 26th reached me this morning. For the honour of Huntingdonshire I hope it will follow the good example set in so many other places, and I feel sure the Liberal speakers have long ago demolished the shallow, useless, and. in many points, utterly untrue state- ments put forward on behalf of the sinking cause of tho Dissentient Liberals.- Y onrs faithfully, W, E, GLADSTONE.

SOUTH WALES NOTES.
SOUTH WALES NOTES. fBY COSMOS.] A MODEL WELSH SQUIRE. DURING the past week it was my lot to make what was not exactly a circular tour. but rather a riang ular ramble in the regions of St. Clears, Llanboidy, and Whitland, three. flourishing Car- marthenshire villages. which together form a tripod, whose feet lie apart at the distance of about six miles from each other. After visiting the three, my footprints left behind defined a well-nigh equilateral triangle. Llanboidy, thanks to the euterprising spirit of the squire of Maes- gwynue, "the most faithful member of the House of Commons," whose residence is near by, is » neat, clean, quiet, charming village, that will put to the blush many villages blessed with better facilities. Although it has to remain aloof at a cousiderable distance from the line," its hotel accommodation, its excellent market-house with its adjunct, the snug reading-room and library, and other evidences of advancement, will strike the visitor with agreeable surprise. The secret of all this was divulged to me by one of the nobilities of the neighbourhood, whom I found on the way- side with both hands mightily engaged in stone- breaking. I instinctively bowed to the veteran geutleman, for a real gentleman he was, although not a genteel man, and put one or two questions to him, in response to which he said, "If every gentleman were like this one (Mr Powell, M.P.), sir, it would be much easier to live in this world. A very good man for the country Mr Powell is. He thought once of reducing ten per cent, in the rent to his tenants, but he thought again, and granted a reduction of fifteen per cent. He spends all here, with the exception of what he is obliged to spend in London." JEREMIADS OVER THE DROUGHT. THIS little metropolis of the butter country—who in Swansea or Cardiff has not heard of the cele- brated Llanboidy butter ?—complains bitterly of the drought which has so long prevailed. I can easily believe that under ordinary circumstances the goodliness of the land and the goodliness of the people sweetly harmonise, but during my visit it was pitiable to see the barren condition of all elevations of soil, scorched by the sun, and to hear the common prayers (or anathemas, which?) of the cattle panting for cooling streams, and listen to the wailings of the discon- solate owners. The heavy showers which have since fallen, it is to be hoped, have con- tributed towards the conversion of these lamenta- tions into jubilant songs of thanksgiving. But just fancy, there are some people in this vicinity who had, at the time of the Queen's coronation, presented to them some strips of the beautiful crimson velvet," of which the coronation dress of her Majesty was made. There were then some links of connexion between Llanboidy and Lon- don, and about 30 years 1111(0 there was a respec- table denizen in this neighbourhood whose name is still fragrant to all who knew him, who occasionally exhibited the uniform he wore when acting in the responsible capacity of a Queen's Guard in the precincts of the Royal Palace. A BIT OF ANTIQUITY. LEAVING Llanboidy, plunging into a little ravine traversed by the road along which pedestrians elect to make their way to Whitland, and then ascending to gain the high level road on which one's face is fanned by refreshing breezes flowing from the parish of Llangan, my heart begins to teat with renewed interest. This Llangan, or Llangana, as it should be spelt, reminds me of Cana, of Brittany, that part of France which was colonised by emigrant from Wales during the early centuries of the Christian era, and is still so fraught with interest to patriotic Welshmen that some of us have failed to resist the temptation of paying several visits to our kinsmen there. This Cana, from whom the parish of Llangan derived its name, was a grand daughter of Emyr Llydaw, that is to say, Emyr of Brittany. She came from Brittany to Wales, and made her mark in the principality, which upwards of a thousand years' rubbing has not effaced, for here she is still monumented by this parish. I could easily mention the names of a considerable number of emigrants from Wales to Brittany who are likewise commemorated there. It appears that during the fifth, sixth, and seventh centuries there was a familiarity assimilated to that which now obtains between North and South Wales, or the counties of Car- marthen and Glamorgan, between Wales and Brittany. And faster still my heart beats when approaching the vicinity of the forge near Whit- land. which is now ornamented by the stately palace of the Hon. W. H. Yelverton, but was formerly graced by the presence ot a theological college, whose chief tut 'r; wore Gredifel and Fflewin, sons of Ithel Hael, Prince of Brittany. This divinity school was the alma mater of St. David, St. Teilo, and others who have carved their names indelibly deep in Welsh history. This neighbourhood used to be all holy ground, and if beautiful anciently, as it is now, no wonder the saints of old chose such a paradisiacal abode to sojourn in. If there is elysium on earth, methinks it is this. But the law of the survival of the fittest is inexorable, and it is worse than useless for any individual or country to look back lugubri- ously, and weep with longing desire for the swaddling clothes, cradles, and pictures of infancy and childhood. One must needs march on with buoyant gratitude for the higher facilities for human happiness which now abound, or remain behind like Lot's wife petrified into an inanimate pillar on the way, and in the way of others, obstructing progress. WHTTCAND REPORTING PROGRESS. MO.OER\ Whitland, no mistake about it, looks up, but uot by lying down on the back. Proud it may of the ancient court of Howell the Good, "King of all Wale?," which was held here when the renowned laws, which have floated down the streams of centuries to us, were enacted. But the moderns of Whitland are by no means dis- posed to rest satisfied with the traditions of the past. Here resides the indefatigable Rev. W. Thomas, of disestablishment celebrity, and the Rev. Q, Havard, right hand supporter of the squire of Maesgwynne," during the electioneering campaigns, who is now engaged on a work which I am persuaded will inundate the principality with additional light on-the Irish question. Mr Havard, though it is not many perhaps that know it, is very much at home with the old Welsh bards, and is well versed in the olden legislative institations of Wales and Ireland, which will be dealt with in his introduction to the point he has to carry. The work, which will be issued at an early date, will trace Irish self- government before and after the time of Queen Elizabeth. This reminds me of what a sturdy son of the Emerald Isle, sojourning now at Llanboidy, told me. Why, sir," said he, Ie if Mr Gladstone had done nothing else, one thing sufficient to immortalize his name is what he has accomplished in restoring the sense of Celtic kindrsdship between the Irish and the Welsh, whose hearts are now beating in unison." Whitland is big with expectation of the advent of Michael Davitt, Michael Jones, and Dr. Pan Jones, who are going to hold a meeting here. The visit of these two Michaels and two Joneses, in three persons, will probably be an epoch in the history of Whitland. It is not at all unlikely that stirring soenes will be witnessed in this neigh- bourhood ere long. Several farmers to whom the reduction sought has been denied have decidedly refused to pay tithes, and notice has been aire s Jy sent to the tenant of Pen- coed to the effect that unless what is demanded be paid on or before September 4th, the claimant shall proceed to distrain upon the lands and premises liable to the payment thereof, pursuant to the statute in the case made and provided, The dale of the notice is the 20th day of August." I remember seeing at Mont St Michael, in Normandy, very vivid representations of the struggle. which took place when Saint Michael conquered the dragon, and I venture to predict that these two modern :Michaels, in conjunc- tion with Jones and others, will eventually dis- comfit the tithe dragon, and drive him to the sea, never to lift its ugly head any more. DOGGY FOLK. CARDIFF last night was doggy. The doggy man has only one peculiarity, and that is distinctly, decidedly, and entirely dogy, He carries the object of his adoration about in a box, and, like an old woman with her luggage, he invariably sits upon his property. The halls of the hotels last night were lumbered with impedimenta, and upon each squatted the proprietor. When the pets had been carefully put to bed, the sentinels sought relaxation from the arduous duties undergone. The conversation opened upon the points of the various show animal", continued without variation on the same topic, and was finally and regretfully adjourned to this morning, when it will be recom- mencad with renewed interest. All day long the blk will be of dogs, and all night, too, except that portion which is devoted to dreaming of them in sleep, to begin over again when breakfast appears, and be carried on with slight intermis- sion during the railway journey to the next show. Pleasant and agreeable companions doggy people. I like to meet them.
--------CARDIFF FREE LIBRARY.
CARDIFF FREE LIBRARY. THE PROPOSED EXTENSION. A meeting of the Cardiff Free Library Committee was held in the council chamber on Tuesday, to consider the proposal of the property and market committee to widen Working-street, by setting back the front of the free library 'buildings. Mr W. Sanders presided. It was resolved to oppose the proposal of the property markets com- mittee to set the building back at the expense of the free library committee. A joint meeting of the free library committee and the property and markets committee was next held, to consider the question. Councillor D. E. 1 ones presided, and there were also present Aldermen Jones and Taylor, Councillors Fulton, p, PrIce, Rees, Hopkins, D. Watson, Riches, and Proger Messrs Wallace, W. H. Thomas, and G. Robinson. It may be remembered that the property and markets committee adopted a resolution approving of a plan of tbeland for the proposed extension of the free library and museum and school of science and art, showmg tbe land proposed to be utilised for the widening of Trinity-street and Working-street, and recommended that the land remaining be appropriated for the purpose of additions to the free library and museum and schools of science and art, subject to the free library committee setting back the existing building in Working. street to the line indicated upon the plan at their own expense. This resolution, however, the council referred back to the committe for reconsideration. Mr SADERS, speaking as a member of the free library committee, now asked whether the pro. posal of the property and markets committee was contingent or actual. Supposing that the committee never got the enlarged building— k because that was quite a contingency—was it still proposed to reduce the builtlinll by 16 feet? The CHAIRMAN replied that the proposal to set the building back was contingent upon the additions to the structure being made. The property and markets committee thought I that now that it was proposed to enlarge the il building, it would be a good opportunity to Ip endeavour to widen Working-street, which was M narrow. The property and markets committee did nut necessarily wish to take the matter up now, but upon the land for adding to the library being obtained, the committee thought the cor. portion should be recommended to widen the street. Mr SANDERS said that to pull down the building to the extent proposed would be ruinous to it. As the proposal to set back the building was only contingent, however, they would have nothing to consider till it was seen whether they would ba able to get the necessary land. The CHAIRMAN was understood to say that if the setting back of the building should take place, the property committee now thought it ought to be done at the expense of the corporation. He added that it was not proposed to set back the Trinity-street part of the free library building, but only the Working-street front. The matter was then allowed to remain in abeyance, pending the settlement of the question as to obtainmg the necessary land for the additions to the building.

ALWAYS WITH US. STRAY NOTES ON THE RELIEF OF THE POOR IN CARDIFF UNION. (BY AS OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT.) It has frequently been my lot, in one capa- city or another, to attend the periodical meet- ings of the g-uardians of the poor at Cardiff, and in other town", and my experience of such gatherings, though not perhaps so extensive and peculiar as Sam Weller's knowledge of London, has, at least, been sufficiently varied. The consti- tution of these boards differs vastly, and as in other matters, so in this connection, the transac- tion of business in an efficient and satisfactory manner depend:, very largely upon the personnel of tbe board, capability of the members to compre- hend the true natnre of the duties they are called upon to discharge, and the courage to act con- scieutiously. It is one thing to take a seat on such a board simply as a stepping atone to some other public office leading on to fortune, and quite another thing to make the one aim and object of service the holding of the balance evenly as between the deserving poor and the ratepayer, snapping the finger at the smile or the frown of the outside public. Some board" of guardians com- prise the crêlOe of business men-upriht in all their dealings, sympathetic with the deserving poor, but just to those who have to find the sinews of war, mortal haters of all hypocrisy. On the other hand, there are boards largely composed of stupid old fogies who, never having themselves known what it is to want bread, have little more sympathy for the poverty-stricken than is ex- pressed in a serve you right," and a callous dis- missal, and whose chief attraction to a seat upon the board appears to be the weekly dinner, sup- plied at a shilling, but regardless of cost," every board day, the dining-room being within the pre- cincts of the workhouse, and the cooks, and waiters, and officers of the board, I could cite a town where almost every local governing body is the subject of election upon a political basis. A man there who is ambitious of fame first becomes a member of the board of guardians. Having served in that capacity and spoken frequently, he is eligible for the town coun- cil, and is next heard of as a candidate for parlia- mentary honours, the handle to his name shaped M.P. having from the first been that which be coveted above all other things. And thus it is that a good deal of downright humbug is so often associated with membership of a board of guard- ians. Moreover, it is generally admitted that the administration of the poor law in this country is characterised by a ridiculous amount of red tape, and that the poor themselves do not derive more than about one-third of the money which is ex- tracted from the pockets of the ratepayers under the designation poor rate." It is satisfactory, however, to feel that, so far as Cardiff is concemsd, the ratepayers' interests are jealously guarded, whilst the claims on the poor are fairly and conscienciously dealt with. The gentlemen who form the board of guardians devote a large amount of time to the onerous and responsible duties devolving upon them, and bring to bear upon their work an amouht of intelligence which similar boards in some other places might well emulate. In a town of so com- posite a character as Cardiff, which has made such phenomenally rapid strides during the last ten or twelve years, the administration of the poor law has become a very important matter indeed, and although there has of late been a good deal of the singing of the poets' praises, the poor remain amongst us, and they have to be provided for. There has undoubtedly been much prosperity for which to be thankful, and, if riches have increased, so has poverty, however paradoxical such a statement may at first appear to the reader. The inmates ot the workhouse number 653, and there are in addition 295 children at the Ely Schools. The outdoor paupers number 3,010, relieved at a cost of L315 10s 9d. A CHAT WITH A WARRANT OFFICER. In dealing with so large a number of indigent persons, cases of imposition are very frequently met with, as also instances in which attempt is made to shift the responsibility of maintenance from the person legally liable to the general body of ratepayers. In order to cope with this difficulty, and also to deal with cases in which similar cir- cumstances, to be hereafter referred to, arise, it has been found advantageous in many of the larger unions to appoint what is known as a warrant officer, and the functionary answering to that description at Cardiff is Mr John Pritchard, who has proved himself zealous and highly ser- viceable, and won the confidence and respect of the gentlemen who have been in office during the 12 years that be has acted. A few days ago I had an opportunity of conversing with Mr Pritchard upon various matters associated with his calling, and gleaned from him some interesting particulars. Mr Pritchard fulfils the duties of warrant officer and collector of moneys paid by relatives in respect. of the poor in receipt of parish relief. He is a constable of the borough force and the county constabulary, and has had considerable experience as a policeman. He serves his own summonses and executes his own warrants. THE REMOVAL OF PAUPERS. As removal officer it falls to Mr Pritchard's lot to remove from this union paupers having a legal settlement elsewhere. The town of Cardiff has so good a name that people in search of employ- ment flock hither from all parts of the United King- dom. Unable always to find work,many resort to the workhouse, and become chargeable to the common fund of the union. A large proportion of these are not legally chargeable to Cardiff, and it is Mr Pritchard's duty to ascertain to what parish they do belong. It is often a very difficult task, but when the necessary information has been obtained, it is submitted to the clerk to the board in writing. The clerk then communicates with the clerk of the union involved, and the pauper is subsequently removed, a magistrate's order being obtained where necessary. Iu this way the local rates are very materially lessened, but the expense of re- moval falls on the removing union. From a return made to the board of guardians, it appears that during the period axcending from September, 1876, ta September, 1877, 21 cases, involving 31 persons, were inquired into in this way 14 cases were investigated in other towns, and 10, involving 16 persons, were taken off the books to avoid removal. The increase in the work may be judged by the figures relating to the period extending from Sep- tember, 1885, to September, 1886, viz., cases inquired into, 183, involving 214 persons; cases investigated in other places, 44; taken off the books to avoid removal, 79 cases, representing 90 persons cases removed or adjudicated to other unions, 94. When it is borne in mind that every removal represents a saving of is 3d per head per head to the rates, some idea can be formed of the advantage accruing from the arrangement. HUSBAND HUNTING. Another very important department of Mr Pritchard's work is that which relates to desertion by a husband of his wife and family. A man who has made a solemn vow to love, comfort, honour, and keep, in sickness and health, the woman be led to the altar, will, sad as it may seem, often travel a considerable distance to get rid of her and the childien she has borne him. As be is, however, legally as well as morally bound to support his wife and family as soon as the latter become chargeable to thb Cardiff Union, Mr Pritchard endeavours to get on his track. 1° this he generally succeeds, and he has fetched delinquents of this kind from all parts of the kingdom. A husband is sometimes corapelled to go elsewhere in search of employment, and there are cases in which his conduct is excusable. This does not remove his liability, however, and, if be shows a willingness to take those who are dependent upon him from the workhouse, and to pay the expenses incurred by reason of bis deser. tion, he is dealt with leniently. if, on the other hand, his case is an aggravated one, and he shows a disposition to shirk the responsibilities which attach to the married state, be has to justify himself before a justice of the peace, and, failing that, to submit to such pains and penalties as are provided for by the laws of the land. Many of the wife deserters at Cardiff are seafaring men, and to the uninitiated it might appear that the man who elects to go to sea stands a good chance of escap- ing from those whom lie has left on land. This, however, is not so. If such a one makes no provision for his wife and family, the guard- ians of the poor have power to seive a notice upon I the owner of the vessel on which the deserter has embarked, and to cause two-thirds of his pay to I be stopped for the benefit of his wite and family, and when the voyage is completed, and the vessel putsinto her portaf discharge the owner communi- cates with the clerk ;o the board of guardians. In the event cf a sailor wishing to provide for his wife and family during his absence at sea, he can procure a half-pay note from the captain or the owners ot the vessel before he starts. These pro- visions have proved an eye-opener to many a sailor, and many a wife has bad to thank the legisla- ture for having passed the Merchant Shipping Act. Between September, 1885, and September, 1886, Mr Pritchard was entrusted with proceedings against seventy persons charged before the magis- trates with desertion or neglect of family. MISCELLANEOUS. Again, persons whom the law holds responsible for contributing towards the maintenance of their less fortunate relatives do not always pay due deference to that pro vision, and hence they have to be reminded by legal process of their obligations. Thns it was that 131 persons were "brought up to the scratch by Mr Warrant Officer during the year last alluded to, and 76 were proceeded against tor disobedience to the orders made upon them. The sums contributed vary from Is to 5s per week, according to circumstances. Still another duty is relegated to the warrant officer, viz., the removal of paupers of unsound mind to the asylum, and in the year under notice he removed 63. The collections actually made by Mr Pritchard from various sources amounted to £2,040 in the one year, and this was in ad- dition to the saving made by reason of the removal of persons not legally chargeable. The Cardiff Board of Guardians have, on many occasions, expressed their appreciation of the very satisfactory manner in which Mr Pritchard discharges his delicate and important duties, and the ratepayers may congratulate themselves upon the financial results of what may be regarded as au ahnost indispensable appointment.
DISASTROUS COLLIERY EXPLOSION.…
DISASTROUS COLLIERY EXPLOSION. i THREE LIVES LOST. On Tuesday an explosion occurred in the Pres- tou Grange Colliery, near Preatonpans, Mid- Lothian. The miners have recently been on strike, and abont six o'clock in the moraine Frederick Curtis, 35, miner, and his son, aged 14, went into the jewell seam of the pit to get their tools, pre- paratory to commencing work. In the great seam they were proceeded by James McEwan, fireman, with a safety lamp. Soon after they had de- scended a loud explosion was heard in the mine. A relief party was organised, but it was some time, before they could reach those below, owing to the after-damp. When they succeeded it was found that all three were de ul. Their bodies were brought to the surface. The cause of the explosion is not yet known. Fortunately, no men besides the three deceased were in the pit at the time.
THE LIPSKI TRAGEDY. , t
THE LIPSKI TRAGEDY. t THE TRUE STORY OF THE L-J CONFESSION. STATEMENT BY THE REV. S. SINGER. Ou the subject of Lipski's confession and the extraordinary rumours which have been in circula- tion in regard to it, the Rev. S. Singer, the Jewish clergyman who took down the text ot the confes- sion, has made the following statement:—"Ou Sunday afternoon, the 14th inst., the day before tbe data originally fixed for his execution, I bad succeeded in so lar impressing the convict with a sense of his position that he promised to tell tha whole truth about the crime of which he was accused. I suggested that what he had to say should be taken down in writing, and pledged myself, at his request, that the contents of the document, whatever they might prove, should not be divulged until, after his death on the ful. lowing morning. I then asked for pen, ink, and paper. Meanwhile, a letter arrived from the Home Office, which proved to be a respite foranother week. This induced tbe prisoner to withhold the com- munication he was, I presume, on the point of making. As a fact, no actual admission of his guilt had yet proceeded from him. Not a soul besides myself knew of what had been spoken in the condemned cell, and the limited confidence Lipski bad up to that time reposed in me was shared, it is hardly necessary to add, by no one. The authorities at the Home Offioe were in this respect no better informed than the outside public. On Sunday, the 21st inst., when all hope of a reprieve had been abandoned by the prisoner, his confession was made in full in the form in which it has appeared in your columns. On this occa. ion he left it to my discretion to make whatever use I deemed right of the document, and it was accordingly handed over to the governor to be at once made public with Lipski's knowledge and approval. Those who desire to know the whole truth regarding a matter which, I venture to think, may now be well allowed to pass into oblivion will read it in the statement I have felt it my duty to make."
