LIVELY PROCEEDINGS AT NEWPORT SCHOOL BOARD. TO THE EDITOR. SM-Beterring to your report of yesterday's meeting of the Newport School Board, will you kindly allow me to make a correction ? It was not I who compared Mr Martin to Shylock, bub it was Mr Martin who, with characteristic taste and grace, applied that name to me.

---FlRNDALE MEETINGS.
FlRNDALE MEETINGS. TO THE RDITOk. SIB,—I see that one, Mr Littlejohns, Ferndale, in your issue of last) Wednesday, tenders me and toy friends a piece of advioe. As he was honest enough to tell 106 that! the English language is a language I do not understand, I wonder why did he not coudescend to reply in a language I can nnderetaml. But a simple language would be below the dignity of the sublime caretaker of the Conservative Club. I expect that it was my reference to a place opened to entice the young taeu of Ferndale with the beer pot that touched the caretaker's heart. How can he say that my charge is baseless? Can he deny that he has been under his care amongst the other Tory Valuables? When he will subtract from the Tory riinb the beer, nothing wtll remain much but smoke. I should like Mr Littlejohns to give the names of chapel leaders that have degraded their convictions by going under his wing. Let this young Tory take advice from one who knew Something of the principles of Liberalism long before his day, and not rush into print again in any language, whethtir he understands it or not, until he will have something to give to tho reader beside a wordy advrtisealent of himself and his Toryisixi.-I am, &u., HUGHES UWEN. Ferndale.

Welsh to attend jUr Church parade on Sunday next at Penarth. time of war we shall stand shoulder to Jhaulder," then let us and acknowledge that it is better for our respective regiments that we aleo do so in times of peace. -1 am, &c., ARTILLERYMAN.

On Sunday morning there was a combined parade at Penarth of Nos. 9 and 10 Companies 2nd Brigade of tho Glamorgan Volunteer Artil. lery and the 3rd V.B. Penarth and Cardiff detachments. The magnificent) muster of 400 strong at the Artillery Drill Hall was an unmis- takably emphatic denial to the recently circulated eanard that a strained feeling exists between the local sections of the Volunteers. Col. Fry was in command of the 2nd G.V.A., and Captain Cole- man of the 3rd V.B. Among the other officers present were: Major Fleming Thomas, Captains W. Gascoyne Dalziel, Handcock, Kendall, M.

W. Sweet-Escott, B.A., who based his remarks on Thessalomans v. xv ii. The choral part of the service was accompanied by the band, who also gave grand renditions of Maseagm's voluntary, "Intermezzo," and Handel's recessional chorus, "Hallelujah." The men subsequently marched back to the Drill Hall, where light refreshments were provided. Colonel Fry felicitated the officers upon the men's smartness and efficiency, saying it was the largest and best parade that had taken place at Penarth.
jRHONDDA COAL TRADE.
RHONDDA COAL TRADE. Our Rhondda correspondent writesDuring the past two or three weeks the coal trade in the valleys has considerably improved, the collieries having worked regularly, but it is stated thab the mines m several of the localities are overcrowded. The Bwllfa Colliery, the property of the Ocean Company, stopped about a month ago in conse- quence of a dispute about a new list of prices, is still idle. The men have all obtained employment elsewhere. The Dinas, the Tylacoch, the Blaeny- cwm, the Blaenrhondda, and the Bute Collieries, which have been at a standstill for a number of years past, are also still idle, and unfortunately there is no prospect of one of them restartiag. In the extremity of the district, where four of the large collieries which are idle are situate, about 150 workmen's cottages have been uninhabited for months past, and some of them are getting into a dilapidated condition. Hundreds of the window- panes have been smashed by mischievous boys and drunken young men in the night. The miners who were employed in those collieries which are now idle have obtained work in the pits lewer down the valley, and consequently the mines which are working regularly are too crowded, the result being the lowering of the men's wages.

The match was played over the 18 hole course, which has been opened emce Easter. The following are the scnrf\8 Glamorgan.—J. Hunter, 0; C. B. Stoddart, 0: T. M. Barlow, 5; W. H. Maine-Tucker, 2; H.

------------SHIPPING AT CARDIFF.
SHIPPING AT CARDIFF. Daring the past six months at Cardiff the Genoa rate has varied from 06 to 6., 9d. The average j rate to London has been about 3s 9d, which goes to show that the coasting business there has been much better than ib bas been elsewhere, and the remark that applies to coasting will also there I apply to Mediterranean and other business. In I, Baltic transactions the rates have gone up to the extent of from 4%d to 6d per ton to Cronstadt and one or two other places within the past three months. A good deal of cargo bas been carried at these advanced rates. Although, speaking generally, it cannot be said that there has yet been any great boom either at Cardiff. Newcastle, I Glasgow, Liverpool, or London in outward rates, there is certainly a better order of affairs notice- able in homeward business. The year, so far as; this is concerned, if not a profitable one, has at any rate b«en one of progress, and the Black Sea demand, which fairly set in about May, has since heen very well sustained. From such ports as heen very well sustained. From such ports as Novorossisk present rates are fully equal to those I paid over the whole of last year, and, though the average so far has not been the same, they are now at least a shilling more than was paid in August and May. We believe Sulina is a fair rise over last year's average. A good deal more has been forthcoming recently from Sebastopol than could have been got in January last, and Alexandria at present stands about Is above the average of 1894. There are other good signs homeward.—Liverpool Journal of Commerce.

Toni Loates has heen out ot luck at Manchester this week, and not until he broke the ice on St. Antonio had he scored a win. A fancy wager on the St. Leger, in which t fillies were backed against the oolta, was on Wednesday made in town, 1,000 to 100 being the price laid against the ladies." Florizel IIM who was oa Friday stiecessfull in the Manchester Cup, has earned a 101b penalty for the Royal Hunt, Cup at Ascot on Wednesday, June 19th, raising his weight to 9t lib. Riding in good form during the week, Morn- ing-ton Cannon has still further increased the difference between his winning score and that of T. Loates, who shows a tccSai of 48 against the 57 of the-Danebury jockey. In Bellevin Jeffrey trains a beautiful fcolt, a brown with four white feet, and a blaze facte. By Atheling out of Mihora, be is consequently half- brother to Lesterlin, and if he goes on ttae right way will make up into a really good horse. He won the City Plate 111 a canter, although 'Clayton was content to beat St. Servan by three-quarters of a length. Florizel II., so far this season, is an unbeaten horse, aud it would appear that the Prince of Wales has at last got an animal that canicarry his colours prominently in the van. If Badquet II. gave his correct running, our American visitors will do well to keep him to the class be has hitherto met in England. Rodomont ran a remarkably good race, and he will win shortly when a skong jockey is up. Convent, whose leg filled after arriving at Manchester, was struck out of the Manchester Cup on Friday at eleven o'clock. This was nrost unfortunate, for Humphreys had coaxed her back to her best form. and she was expected to take a deal of beating. This was to be Convent's last race, us it was feared her log would not stand another severe course of training. His Royal Highness the Duke of York is a hit of a wit, says Gale's Mirror. After Lord Rose- bery had won the Derby he exclaimed to a friend who was standing close by, "By Jove, Rosebery is lucky. You cannot win two Dfrbys every day in the week." Quite so. This is almost as good as the individual who told his best girl that he was-going to back Lord Rosebery's candidate for the Derby. He is sure to cop," said the lady in question, if Ladas runs instead of Sir VisW, 1"

CRICKET.I
CRICKET. I LANCASHIRE v. KENT. MANCHESTER, Saturday.-The charming weather enjoyed at Manchester all the week still continues but Kent had fared-ao badly yesterday afternoon that little interest remained iu tie match, the visitors, with four wickets down in their second innings for 44, still wanting 312 runs to escape a single innings defeat. Thus very few people assembled at Old Trafford. Pattersor (15) and Marchant (1?) faced the bowiio* of Briggs and Mold at 15 minutes to 12. Only 14 runs had been added when Mold dismissed Marehaat With the next ball Weigall wa.s caught by the wicket- keeper, and Tonge left at 68. Patterson played well. Patterson played a fine game, Ma.rtin staying with him I until 92, and Wright assisting him to add 33 for the ninth wicket. Wright was, however, bowled at 125, I and Huish being absent through the accident he met yesterday, Lancashire won by an innings and 291 runs. Scores :— Scores :— LANCASHIRE.—1st Innings.

BRIGHTON, Saturday.—Sussex having scored 518 against 465, commenced their second innings at Brighton this morning with a lead of 53 runs. Delht. ful weather prevailed, Marlow and Wilson opened the batting to the attack of Tyler and Woods and in the third over Marlow was bowled off his pads. With Ranjitsinhji and Wilson in play was un- eventful, but on Nichols going on for Woods he in his second over got Wilson and Murdoch c.iught in the slips from consecutive balls, making two and three for .31, Newliam following in. The 50 was reached in 55 minutes, and four runs later Nftwham was caught at mid-off. Then Brann joined RanjitsinhJi, and a stand was made, the hundred going np at ten minutes past one, and Ranjitsinlqi completing his own fifty just later. Altogether the fifth wicket yielded 66, when at 120 Ranjitsinhji was caught in the slips for a brilliant 57, in which were 10 fours. Bean faild and Brann left at 135. The luncheon total was 144 for seven wickets. Before a considerably increased crowd the game was continued after the interval. Collins and Butt, the I' not outs, scored steadily and carried the figures to 162 before a fine left-handed catch in the slips dismissed Butt, and Parris joined Collins. Both Collins and Parris hit with great spirit and determination, the professional making some danger- ous strokes, which fortunately for him fell harmlessly. Collins, when he had made 36, was missed from a return by 'fyler, and then 200 went up at 3.50. The baismen played pluckily, Parris ma-king his 00 at 4.20. Directly afterwards Collins was caught in the deep field, and with the total at 243 for nine wickets, the innings was declared closed. Somerset required 297 to win. with less than two hours for cricket. The Somerset batsmen contented themselves with a very steady game, merely trying to remain in till the call of time. They obtained 118 for three wickets, and so the lons-scorine match ended in a draw. Scores SOMERSET.-ll!t inDlDC!. h. Palairet, c Murdoch, bCollins 42 Fowler, c Parris, bCollins 35 R.

AND GROUND (12 A SIDE). CAMBRIDGE, Saturday.—Brilliant weather was associated with the third day's play at Cambridge, and there was a fair attendance when the game »vas resumed at half-past 11 o'clock. The M.C.C., with 10 wickets in hand .and 244 runs behind, continued their second innings with the brorhers Leese. who were opposed by Candler and Shine. Runs came ptetty freely. Candler being the most punished, so that when the socce had been "raised from IS to 55 young Grace was called on at the '.pavilion end, whilst at 75 Lowe went on 'opposite, and in his second over got N. Leese caught in the slips, the second wicket having;, cost 76 runs. In Lowe's third over he bowled Vernon Leese for 29 and in his fourth sent back Gunn, ao^that he got 3 wickets for 4 runs. Carpenter and .*&awlin became associated. At 80 the Essex professional would have been run outiiad not Robinson anulled the ball. At 111 Lowe gave place to Shine, but it was not until 53 had been put on for the fifth wickttt that the fresh bowler-neld a warm return from Rawlin. Twenty-seven runs 4ater Carpenter was caught at cover-slip for 38. Off the first ball sent down after luncheon by Wilson, Hett was well caught at point, and in his u"t over Wilson bowled Wright for 28, eight wckets thus going for 174. Hornaby followed ,in., and Davidson hit twice to the boundary, the 209 went sp at 3.20, but ten mlnjites later Hornsby 'Aeas captured in the slips, having contributed four ✓ionly of the 43 put on for the ninth wicket. Attewell .;joined Davidson, who had been scoring freely, and Lowe was punished by both batsmen Davidson showed patient cricket, for his 50, which embraced 7 fours. The remaining batsmen, however, did little, and the end came at 4 o'clock, Cambridge winning by an innings and 23 runs. Lowe took 4 wickets for 60. Score :— I»it irmmjrr. M.c c. 2nd Innings, J. S.

NEWPORT, Saturdji.-y.—Punctually at 12.30 a start was made in this mtyoch. The weather was gloriously fine, a.nd the wicket-favoured run-getting. The home captain won the to^s, and started the batting with Silverlock. Jennat- opened the bowling from the Ballast end, and Silverlock got two boundaries off the first over. Joseph started the trundling from the Gymnasium end and sent down a maiden over. Silverlock then "hit another four, aud tho ten was put up. SiEverlock added two singles. Hornby then opened his account with two fours off .Tenner causing 20 to be telegraphed. The batsmen continued to play the bowjling with confidence, and the score roso to 18, wheu,F. Rea. d sOaAmd Joseph. SHverloek hit the new b<»wler for a aiwje, anci then as the pro. added a farthe r single off Jenner the half century was readied after j as! under 50 minutes' play. Runs came freely, ajid at 68 Howell was tried in plaoe of Jenner. Eaclv batsma;A added a single nff the new trumller and 70 was regi-A ered. Scoring now slowed down.bui, at 1.15 the pM-tuHM tip was stall good, the score then being 80 At 1J20 SU* jrlock, with a fine drive to the boundary, completed.} »is 50, the score than being 90. Silverlock added ano#;fcer boundary. Three byes were run, and then Hornfay hit a two, and the century was put up amidst ap> clause after 55 minute play. The score was taken to 119, when Horuby was stumped for a freely hit 48. F. l Rees joined Silverlock, and the former eracked his duck off his namesake. Scoring con- tinueU a t* good pace, and at 137 Joseph went on in place of .'Roes, and ofi Ms fourth ball Rees was out to a catch bv Jenner. Thompson and Silverlock were now aa sociated, but after scoring a single the new comer was bowled by Joseph. At luncheon the score was 139 for three wickets, Jenkifis and Silverlock resumed their innings after lunclieon. Both batsmen hit out freely, and the scong, rose rapidly. At 3.15, with the total at 180, Silverlock comp-eted his century. NolArithstanding the changes of bowlers scoring cou- tiiTfied merrily, the pro. doing most of the hitting. At 3.7 0 the_second century was put up, Jenkins and Silver- Icr i being still associated. Runs came at a great pate, and all femds of bowling seemed alike to Silver- lo ek, who by 3.451nd compiled 146 out of a total of 238. TJie score was taken to 253 when the partnership, ^#hich had produced 114 ) nns, was closed by a fine bail from Powell disturbing Jenkins's stumps. J. H. titration followed, but the new comer was soon oat, or after scoring a single he was out to Jostpli. The innings was declared -dosed at 5 minutes past 4, Newport having scored 367 runs foi the loss of five wickets. Silverlock, who had not given a single cnanoe, carried ont hts bat for a splendidly com- piled 154, which included 26 fours. His innings lasted two hours and three-quarters. J. Howell and T. Rees opened the Llanelly innings. T. S. B. Wilson started the bowling from the Baliast ODd. and with his first ball he bowled Bees. Oliff Bowen now partnered Howell, and the latter hit Barclay, who opened the attack with Wilson, fora four and a single in succession. When the score had been taken to 15 Boweu tamely returned a ball to Barclay. J. G- Lewis followed in. after six runs had been added Wilson dismissed Jenner who'succeeded Yeall. Rees,who followed in,was clean bowled by Wilson before he could scoie, the total being unchanged. Two runs lateT Hornby caught J. Howell off Barclay. The retiring batsman had put on 33 wins. H. Howell and Powell were now together. Shortly afterwards a double bowling change was tried, and in the second over Silverlock dismissed H. HoweD- Nine rtins later F. N. Powell was sent back after putting on 24 runs. Joseph succeeded, but before be bad a chance to score BUS partner was dismissed by Graham and the innings closed for 95 runs.

TERRIBLE MARCH FOR THE TELEGRAPH CUP. NUMBERS OF MEN KNOCKED UP. SEVERE CASE OF SUNSTROKE. BISLET, Saturday.—The competition for the Telegraph Cup took place. The weather was intensely hot, rendering the march in three hours from Weybridge very trying. Several of the teams never reached the range, others were late, and some arrived leaving men sick on the road- side. The 1st Grenadier Guards carried their bugler a mile, and then left him unconscious at tke tea gardens, reaching the range within their time only to be disqualified. Lord Methuen marched down with the 1st Detachment of the London Scottish Volunteers, who marched splendidly, being the first to arrive. Sergeant Allen, of the Coldstream Guards, suffered from sunstroke, and fell while marching to the range. Three hours' effort failed to restore him. and he was conveyed unconscious to Pirbright Hospital. The 1st Scots Guards won the cup. the 3rd Grenadiers being second, and London Scottish third.
--------BARRY DISTRICT COUNCIL…
BARRY DISTRICT COUNCIL AND THE SWEATING SYSTEM. THE WAGES QUESTION AND THE CONTRACTS., At the ordinary meeting of the Barry Urban District Council, held on Friday evening, under the presidency of Alderman J. C. Meggitt, Mr J. H. Jose, one of the Labour members, during the consideration of the scavenging contracts for the ensuing year, objected to the present system as introducing the sweating system by tradesmen in thus competing. It was of the speaker's personal knowledge that men in the employ of some of those who sent in tenders were in receipt of only 18s as a weekly wage. The Chairman intimated that he agreed very largely with what Mr Jose had said. He reminded him, however, that the proper time for the discussion of such a course would have been before the tenders were applied for,—Dr. P. J. O'Donnell: I think there is a clause in every agreement entered into with contractors that the current rate of wages be paid.—On the 4uggestion of the Clerk, Mr Jose moved that the present contractors be asked to continue their present contracts for two months, until other arrange- ments respecting what he had complained of had been made by the Public Works Committee.— Mr W. Thomas (Barry) objected to the matter as being Out of order.—Mr Jose: I shall be satisfied with the question being raised.—Mr D. Morgan seconded Mr Jose's motion, which was carried.
