[In our introduction to the list of names we took the liberty of assuming that Mr Gwilym Evans was unaware of the illustrious honour con- ferred upon him; and we added that the Druidi- cal Welsh University occasionally conferred the hall-mark of its favour upon men who wyreiirnorant cf its vary existence. Mr Gwilym Evans has enly paid the penalty of his celebrity. We are- glad t" find that Mr Evans takes no pridein,but ratherrn- sents the association cf, his name with this great Transatlantic University. Would that the same thing irijrht b3 said f other distinguished Welsh- men.—ED. S.W.D. N. ]

A DISCLAIMER. TO THE EDITOR. SIR.—In your issues uf December 5th and 13th I notice a public apology to Mr Rees Williams, of Maesttg, from Jjhn W. Richards, grocer, also of Maesteg! As this is thought to be me, and likely to de me an injury, I must ask you to insert this disclaimer, as I am not the person referred to. Thanking you in anticipation.—I a:n, &c., J.

THE EARTHQUAKES OF LAST AUGUST.
THE EARTHQUAKES OF LAST AUGUST. TO THE EDITO". Sir.-A few months ago you were good enough to insert a letter frcm me askinc for accounts of the earthquakes felt in \Vales and the adjoining counties of England and Ireland on last August 18t.h. The descriptions which I received in reply to it are of great value and interest. They have come chiefly, however, from Pembrokeshire jind while for that county—thanks mainly to one of your readers—our knowledge of the shocks is most complete, from the neighbouring counties the records are much less numerous. I should be most grateful for notes on the earthquakes (especially the principal shock shortly after midnight and, the slighter one at about 1.30 run.) from any place in the cunties of Carmarthen, Glamorgan, Brecon, or Cardigan. The details 1 am anxious to obtain are suggested in the questions below, and can easily be gi ven in tabular form 011 a post card; but, though, apparently scanty, they would assist most materially in making the history of these shocks a complete and instructive one. 1. Name of the place where the shock was felt. 2. Time at which it was felt. 3. Was the shock strong enough (a) to make doors, windows, fire-irons, c-te., rattle; (b) to cause the chair or bed on which the observer was resting to be not merely shaken, but perceptibly raised or nvjved (c) to cause pictures, etc.. to swinr or t3 stop clocks ? 4. Was the shock accompanied by an unusual rumbling sound? Note.—It is important that the answers far each shock should u left separate.—I am, &c., CHARLES DAVISON. 38, Charlotte-road, Birmingham, Dec. 13, 1892.
THE GLAMORGAN JOINT POLICE…
THE GLAMORGAN JOINT POLICE COMMITTEE. TO THE EDITOR. SIR,—Allow me as one of the members of the Joint Committee to state that I read the report of the doings of the committee (that is as much as appeared in the South Wales Daily Neivs on Tuesday last) with very great pain. I refer to civcumslances arising from a point raised by my friends, Councillor W. Williams and Alderman J. Jones Griffiths, who conaidsrcd it their duty to ask for an explanation when the chief constable presented his report to the committee respecting a certain promotion in the force. The Chairman ruled them out of crdor, and stated that the chief constable exercised his discretion and that he is responsible. I should like to know from Judge Gwilym Williams to whom the chief constable is responsible. Does he mean that he is to be res- ponsible to himself or to him as Chairman ? I consider the condnct of the Chairmnn more worthy of theCzar of Russia or s,Tjt,- r despot than cf a gentleman occupying the position of a Cha.iru)&n>f the Glamorgan Joint Police Committee, and if such conduct as this is tolerated much longer by us as a committee, then I say we are unworthy of our forefathers. As long as I am a member of this committee, I shall consider it my duty to express tnyw! on matters that call for consideration. Let the Ch:¡lrDlal1 and his followers make much of their t iyl they will soon bo discharged from the position thev now hold under a law winch is quite out of harmony with the sentiments and opinions of our 3ge; and I trust that the prraent Government will at an early date bring iu an amendment, so as to do away with the dual control of the police, so that the forco may be responsible to the Council, as representatives of the tax-payers, rather than to a lew individuals, as it has been in years gone by,—I am, &c., DAVID DAVIES. Macsyeoed, Mcrthyr, Doc. 14th, 1GS2. P.S.—I should state that owing- to an accident I was unable to attend the Committee cu Monday.
--._--HEARTS OF OAK BENEFIT…
HEARTS OF OAK BENEFIT SOCIETY, A special meeting of the delegates of the Hearts of Oak Benefit Society, commencing on the 8th instant, and term mating on Saturday last, was held at the Society House, 17, Charlotte- street, Fitzroy-square. London, W. Mr E. Tovey (liriscol) occupied the chair, and Mr D. T. Whiteley (London) occupied the vice-chair. The meeting attended by representatives of the Society from ail parts of England and Wales. The questions under consideration were of the highest im- pcrtance in the interests of the Society and well- being of its members individually, comprising the subjects of superannuation allowance, providing the benefits of convalescent homes to sick mem- bers, widows' funeral allowances, representation of c anity members on the Committee of Manage- ment, and increase of the number of delegates from 160 to 200, questions which have mainly arisen owing to the enormous growth of the Society during recent years, and the ad- visibility, therefore, of adapting present requirements to the largely extended operations of the Society. The utmost interest was evinced in the proceedings, which were characterised by very ablf, earnest, and full discussion. The report of the delegates' sub- committee dealing with the various subjects was submitted by Mr J. T. Spackman, president of the Society. It was decided that the superannua- tion allowance at present in force be continued on the existing basis m the interest of the members at large. The delegates resolved to provide two new benefits for th9 members of the Society, one being the establishment of a special fund to enable those members who shall be found to require them to receive the advantages of residence in Convalescent s-a boon which will doubtless be found of the greatest value in the severer cases of sickness. This scheme was brought forward by Mr F. Harris, of Birming- ham. The other new benefit is the ensuring of the funeral allowance cn the death of a wife of a member, even although the husband pre- decease her, a fee of 2s 6d being paid during the lifetime of the husband, or 5s after his death, and thereafter the widow to contribute a premium of Is per quarter to the Society funds. This scheme was brought forward by Mr A. H. Robbins, of Wolverhampton. The other resolutions passed at the special meeting related to the general management of the Society, having regard to its growth, being an addition of 10 country members to the committee of management, which will now raise its number to 50, and the increase of the delegation to 200, proposals bronght forward owing to the Society having more than doubled its membership since the number of delegates was fixed at 160, 15 years ago. Mr S. Uttley, of Sheffield, moved both these proposals, which had been respectively embodied in propositions from Mr W. W. S. Sense, of Bristol, and from Mr Uttley and Mr J. C. Moor, Sunderland. So soon as the required assent of the Registrar of Friendly Societies has been obtained, the resolutions will be incorporated in the Society rules, and will thereafter be put into immediate operation. The Secretary reported that over 20,000 new members had been enrolled on the Society's books since 1st January last, and about 2.000 new members on the roll of the Juvenile Society, the total membership of cach Society beitie respectively 168,000 and 10,000. The delegate for this district was Mr J. T. Docton.

-. NEWPORT.
NEWPORT. ALLEGED CRDrrI;G.-At :Newport Town Hall, on Wednesday, Olaf Johnsen, and Axe1. Knudsen, two Danish sailor boys, were brought to answer a charge of deserting their vessel, The two sailor lads left their ship, the I. Gron- sum, which is lying at the Old Dock, on Sunday night, and were found at 21, King's-parade. In answer to the charge both lads said that they had been taken away by a runner for a Mr Simmonds. Neither the captain nor the chief officer was able to appear to give evidence, both being detained at the Infirmary, whither they were removed after A gas explosion on board the barque, in which both men were badly burned. Tha tWo youths were therefore remanded until Monday, and in the meantime an effort will be made to capture the alleged crimper.

The incident occurred on the 6th inst., at 4, Robert-street, whf're the parties reside. The statement made to Officer Drewett, who visited the house and found Mrs Carney bleeding from the wound described, bound up the wound and had the wife removed to the Infirmary, was to the effect that the husband and wife had a few words, and that Carney, who was taking off his boots, threw one at her, which struck her in the forehead, and thus the wound was inflictcd. Mrs Carney now wished to take all the blame unun herself, and pave another version of the affair, saying that she fell from a chair and struck her head against the dresser, and thus caused the wound.—The Bench, however, said that tlvoy did not attach much importance to Mrs Carney's evidence, as she was evidently trying to get her husband out of the difficulty, and fined Carney, who has a record at the court, 20s and costs, and bouud him over to keep the peace for 12 months.

Another woman who had wit- nessed the atiair came forward aud gave her ver- sion. Whereupon the Bench decreed that Ball should repair to Usk, there to stay until three days after Christmas.
