MAIDEN SPEECH. MR. EDGAR JONES, M.P., AND THE j LORDS, HOW WALES HAS BEEN PERSECUTED. Mr., Edgar Jones, the Ljnd member for Merthyr, made his maiden speech in iho House of Commons on Tuesday on the question of live Lords' veto. He said the leader of the Opposi- tion always put forward the proposition in these discussions that the House of Lords had protected the minority in Scotland against the majority in that House, the ioval minority in Ireland against tho majority, and thi minority in Wales against th", evil disestablish-ers a.Dd dis- endowers who made up the population of the Principality. There never was a more per- nicious fallacy thai-i this particular argument. In Ireland the House of Lords had used the alien minority which had bsen planted in Ulster as a meana through which they cou-kl persecute the majority. They watched every opportunity to drive home this thorn in the flesh .of Ireland, and they drove it home every time. It was this which was responsible for tno bulk of the crime in Ireland—crime that. could be put to the door of the House of Lonh, He alluded to the case of Ireland in order to explain the posi- tion in Wales, which whs very similar, only worse. They had a minority in Wales and had it for a very lona time. The minority were gathered around the Norman ca.stles and the Norman Lords took their ancient church a church which existed before the anoc-stors of the Saxons came out of the barbarism and forests of Germany (laughter). They took its livings and endowments, and gave them to their favourites as they would throw a bit of meat to a dog.' The result was that the Welsh people found themselves without any kind of apirituai ministration whatever. At last, for- tunately, out of the masses of the people, there was spontaneously evolved a system of public worship called the Nonconformist system, but entirely different to Nonconformity as it was known in England. From that time onward the Welsh had been a nation of Nonconform- ists. When the change came about, the House of Lords began its active mischief in regard to the interests of the' Welsh peoplo. They put into the Established Churches that still remain- ed another set of individuals instead of the wastrels that had been there—cormorants gave place to dragons. They soon had an ecclesias- tical militia, who acted in a most unscrupulous fashion. A system of cpi-es was organised, the bulk of them being incumbents of the churches, chaplains,' and squires, and the Welsh peoDle were persecuted in every direction. For the whole of a century the House of Lords deliber- ately endeavoured by means of that minority to fore5 upon the We'sh people the Church they had long since had to reject. They kept them under similar disabilities to those to which the Irish had been subjected. Every opportun- ity was taken to insult the people, but worst of all they were kept without higher educational institutions longer than any Principality in Europe. Even Principalities under the Sultan of Turkey got higher educational institutions before Wales was able to get them. The peo- ple of Wales long ago made up their minds once and for all that they were going for the abolition of the House of Lords. They had as a nation settled the question before the Labour Party was ever hoard of. They stood by this principle to-day with added force, because cllr- ing the past fifty years an industrial population had crown up'in North and South Wales under the abuses of the present system, abuses which had been felt worse than in any other part of the land. They had had, particularly in South 14 Wales, a combination of the abuses applying to royalties, land values, and wayleav.es under- ground, from the pit to the port, and from the port to the sea. The grip of the landlords had bean upon them wherever they turned, and the people hnd made up their minds that this sys- tem must come to an end. The Budget taught them the way out, and they knew now how im- portant it was that the power of the veto should hi removed from the Tredecrars, the Rutes. the Jerseys, and the others who wore lords of the manors, and had got hold of th--ze royalties nobody knew how or when. The quicker the Prime Minister got along with this problem of the House of Lords and the more forcibly they tackled, it the more enthusiastic would be the support of the Welsh people (hear, hear). m_1

COAL JDR1SIS, Progress of the Negotiations. DECISION OF THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE. WHAT WILL THE MEN DO? Great satisfaction was felt throughout South I II Wales last week-end when it became known that Mr. Sydney Buxton, the President of the Board t of Trade, had succeeded in. liis.effort to. bring about a further meeting between the coSlown- ers and the miners' leader, with a view to re- sumption of the negotiations for the revision of the wage rate agreement. Although at the I workmen's conference and at the coalowners' I meeting on Wednesday week each side seemed dtermined to maintain the firm attitudes they had previously assumed, there was a gleam of hope in the fact that each appointed represen- tatives to wait upon Mr. Sydney Buxton. It is, of course, impossible yet to state what actually transpired at Whitehall last Thursday, but it is evident that the President of the Board of Trade, having thoroughly mastered the sub- ject, came to the conclusion that the differences between the parties were not impossible of set- tlement. When tho Conciliation Board separated on th? previous Saturday the demands of the work- men and those of the owners had been con- i siderably reduced. Approach had been made to an understanding with regard to the control of shifts, and it was felt that the adoption of an overlapping shift would do away with the difficulty of maintaining the output. Further, it was understood that the small coal question would not stand in the way of a settlement. The men no doubt had conoeded much, but they insisted upon the payment of a guaranteed wage in abnormal places, while on the other hand the owners maintained that they were en- titled to an increased equivalent to the mini- pium, though they reduced their original de. mand from 13s. 6d. to 12s. 6d. per ton condi- tionally upon the men conceding to the owners the right of controlling the shifts according to the requirements of the respective collieries. The miners' conference on Wednesday week entrusted the future conduct of any negotia- tions with the owners in the hand, of the Exec- utive Council of the Miners' Federation, and though arrangements were made for another conference of workmen, should the exigencies of the case demand it, the men's leaders pos- sessed the power of bargaining with the awn- ers, in the best interest of the coalfield. SATURD W'S CONFERENCE. OWNERS' VEW PROPOSALS. The coalowners and the miners' lea-ders a strenuous effort on Saturday to arrive at settlement. They eat for over five hours Cardiff, and succeeded, pending the confirr.v tion of the Miners' Federation, in arriving at a settlement on all the points in dispute—sa^e one—a clause guaranteeing a for working m abnormal places. Air. W. J. Heppell presided over the owners, and Mr. W. Brace. M.P., over the workmen's ropr^eniatives, and there was a full attendance of both rifles. Mr. Heppell informed the work- men that with r„ view to endeavouring to ret- move the present deadlock, and with every de- sire to act in a conciliatory spirit, the owners were prepared to make the following final pre. posalfs:— 1. The renewal of the present agreement f. 5ve years, increasing the minimum from o To 35 per ce^t and fixing the equivalent lis. 5d per to-, but when large coal "in the men's r>r-:entape shall he 50 per c.?.. se?.r<? ori'ce is 14s. 9d. above tr."t vht T,IAY ck-rr s?.\ increase up to 60 per^ctr!4., i'.al? be M- rsaximun.

Overlapping shifts to be worked where ry quired by the owners to start not earlier than 6 a.m. and not later than 9 a.m.—on Saturdays this shift, to si an and finish at the same time as the first and both parties to units in promoting the amendment of the Eight Hours Act to make this early starting on Sat- urday legal. I 4. The clause on abnormal places submitted by the owners to be inserted in the agreement subject to amendment defining the rights of the courts to settle the amount due. 5. Sunday night shifts of eight hours, and only one shift to be paid. 6. The hours of labour to be fixed below ground as authorised by the Coal Mines Regu- lation Act of 1903 except that the workmen be not compelled to work the extra sixty hours. 7. The clause in the present agreement as to customs to be amended so as to substitute De- cember, 1899. instead of December, 1879. 8. Conditionally upon the foregoing being accepted by the workmen, the owners with- draw their claim for damages for refusing, to work the sixtv hours under the Conciliation Board agreement of 1905 and 1909. In the event of the foregoing proposals not being accepted by the general body of work- men they are absolutely withdrawn, and must be regarded as not having been made. Considerable discussion followed, and at the close of the proceedings, after frequent separa- tions. the workmen's representatives being un- able to give a final answer, Mr. Heppell hand- ed them the following memorandum:— If the workmen's reply is given before noon oi Wednesday next, the 30th inst., that they will recommend the owners' terms to the work- men for acceptance, the owners agree that where it is found practicable, the different col- lieries will continue working from day to day, but not bevond April 9t.h. subject to the terms of the agreements 11th December, 1905, frtid the 30th 1909; otherwise the con- tracts will cease as and from the 1st of Ap.ril, 1910. It is agreed that the ballot of the work- men shall be taken, and if the result, is favour- able. to the aWii'tance of the agreement, the aereerrient sh?13 be signed on or before April 9th. 1910. The conference then adjourned without com- ing to a settlement until after the Miners' Fed- I erat.ion meeting ■ in London, and the South Wales Miners' FiTecutire arranged to meet in London on Tuesday. Though the miners de- ferred their the only difficulty lay in the adoption of the abnormal places clause. The men withdrew tlJeir claim for payment for I working small cca.L THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE. i A .national conference of miners was held in I London on Tuesday, delegates being present from all partr. of. the country. The meetii); was private, but two o'clock Mr. Alfred Onions issueo the following official report:— The National Conference assembled at 10.30, Mr Enoch Edwards, M.P., presiding. Mr. Robert Simllie was in the vice-chair. There were 147 delegates present besides tho officials, representing the whole of the mining districts of Great Britain. Before the South Wales question was brought forward the President explained that I the cause of the absenoe of Mr. Wm. White- field, miners' agent for Bristol district, was in consequence of the death of his daughter, and he moved from the chair a vote of condo- lence to his family at the loss sustained. This was passed, the whole of the delegates rising to their feet. Thon the president, on behalf of himself and Messrs. Robert Smillie and Thomas Aeh- ,ton, who had been appointed at the last con- I ference to visit South Wales, explaining that they had interriews with the South Wales workmen's representatives, and were also pre- sent at some of the joint meetings of employ- ers and workmen. Mr. William Brace, M.P., and Mr. Thomas Richards, M.P., gave an ex- haustive and detailed report of the negotia- tions that have taken place between the own- ers' representatives and themselves since the last conference. A number of questions were put by dele- gates and answered by the South Wales re- presentatives. A long discussion ensued, and the conference stands adjourned till 10 o'clock on Wednesday morning. DECISION OF M.F.G.B. The conference of the Miners' Federation wae resumed on Wednesday morning, and shortly I after 1 o'clock, and the following official re- I port was issued:— I The conference reassembled at 10 a.m., Mr. I Enoch Edwards, M.P., again presiding, and the following proposition was submitted to the conference on behalf of the Executive Council:— That having carefully considered -the whole position in South Wales we strongly urge the Conference to advise the' workmen to accept the terms of settlement put before'the Con- ference, as the outcome- of the negotiations between the coalowners and the miners' re- presentatives, as- we do not think the points of difference are sufficient to justify either j a sectional strike in South Wales or a national ) struggle, with all the tremendous issues' in- volved. This is not to be taken as committing other districts of'this Federation to support an amendment of, the Eight'Hours Act. j A long discussion ensued upon this being proposed and seconded,on behalf of the Exe- cutive Committee, in which representatives; from nearly all the districts in Great Britain took part, after which the resolution was carried. STATEMENT BY MR, T/RICHARDS, 1.P. Mr. T. Richards, M.P., secretary of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Miners' Fed- eration, interviewed on Wednesday after the! National Conference, in London, stated that no difficulty would ariso with regard to the .reten- tion of the abnormal places clause, inasmuch as a private undertaking hacTbeen come to by the South Wales ooajowners to delete'thi^ clause if the Executive so desired. There was now no difference between the Ex- ecutive Council and the owners, and-all that remained was for the ballot of the workmen to be taken on the proposals. Tho Executive Council would meet in Cardiff RICHMDS SA "4 .A.to-'V general conference of South Wales delegates would be held to-morrow Preparations for the ballot h-ad been left in the hands of tho local officials, and the workmen were instructed by the Executive Council to continue working pending the result of the ballot. FEELING AT MERTHYR. Tho news was received throughout Merthyr and district with great rejoicing, particularly by the workmen themselves, who do not. wish a stoppage. All the local pits were idle on Mon- day, Tuesday, and Wedne.-day; hut on the first two days the toilers fnjoyed themselves with caution. On Wednesday night, however, they exhibit", a spirit. of delight, and finished the holid. ■ a liearty manner. On Sunday last a mass i ng was held at tho Theatre Royal, Mr. '1 Evans presiding, when Mr. John Williams (.miners' agent) explained the position of affairs. He also produced Saturday evening's papers, and criticised tho reports on the coal trade. RECEPTION OF THE NEWS AT ABERDARE. It goes without saying that the news tha„ peace was assured was hailed with delight by the general public in Aberdare Valley, as else- where. Interviews with the colliers on Wednes- day evening, however, clearly proved that at least a considerable minority of the colliers are not satisfied with tho settlement. In fact, they were loud in their denunciation of the conces- sions made by the leaders. This feeling was clearly shown in the meetings held at Tre- cynon by the Bwllfa men on Saturday, and at Aberaman by the Powell Duffryn Company workmen on Tuesday; but there is little doubt —as far as can be gathered by interviews in every parrot the district—that the result of the ballot will be in favour of the confirmation of the agreement entered into.' POWELL DUFFRYN CO.'S WORKMEN PROTEST AGAINST THE LEADERS. On Tuesday, a mass meeting of tho workmen engaged at the different collieries owned by the Powell Duffryn Colliery Company in the Aberdare Valley, was held at the Aberaman Theatre to consider the position jn reference to the Conciliation Board agreement. Mr. Isaac Edwards presided. t A lengthy discussion took place in reference to the action of the miners' leaders on Saturday .>t, and their action was very severely criti- rwed by a number of 6peakerr contended I they had no right what eve- to make the I concessions they did without obtaining the con- of the miners in South Waki They were condemned, too, for attending meeting of M.F.G.B. on Tuesday, w-vhout calling ¡ -■mother conference of the workmen for in- ) :t10tions. It was urged that they should not :>? allowed to give away ths rights of the ;*>ople in the manner they had. No agreement 1.(,¡"ld be entered into that allowed an over- g shift, and the sooner the leaders under- t; .'t? the better for ail concerncd. The working in abnormal places was also "need in very strong terms. and it was clause itself was enough to vi;r, *he -Ile l1greement.. It was also point- cd i the leaders had promised not to 1. ne w agreement without providing there- in fov securmg better terms for underpaid •ohouj- in the collieries. All ihese matters been thrown overboard, In fact the lead- wjth the exception of Mr. C. B. Stanton, ■f'bicrs' agent, Aberdare, and some five or j others, had shown that they were not fit leaders, and were not to the men i represented. Telegrams to this effect were .derad be sent to Mr. Thomas Richards, i <-h' -vjcretary of the South Wales Miners' TKC:r.ior., and Mr. C. B. Stanton, the Aber- j ro s.srent. The latter was urged to do all J he could, even at the last meeting, to prevent '•.ven the provisional acceptance of the employ- I terms. It was also der.r!rxl to ask the I l-'istrict Secretary and Executive io convene a i "iass meeting of the AberrtarT. District to pro- I test against the proposed IWV. cement. I DISCONTENT A.T BLAINA. I I A mass meeting of the Blaip.a District of the I' .•Ayth Wales Miners' Federation was held on Wednesday night, Mr. William Jcr.es, chairman of the district, presiding over .>. largo attend- I r.Tice. At ths close, the Pre a representatives j wre informed that Mr..I'itace. Manning (the I as-'Jntj had given a report as io the transactions si the London Conference, and .that he recom- the men to accept tlie cctnvs. After j thft following reaoluticu was unani- axoiisly »r.ried: — axoiisly '? nat this meeting of the Blaina District its indignation and ■sj'rnost dissatis- fa*:t:ion at the conduct of the London confer- enoe. in recommending the pi^s^ar, offers of trie masters.- for acceptance by. the South Wales miners, believing that fee change in the equivalent selling price will have a detri- mental effect on the wages cl nil workers. We also deplore the neghg^noe displayed re- garding_ the lower wage mfn. The overlap- ping shift and abnormal piaoes questions are also disappointing, and we that the rank and file be recommends A" refuse to accept the same. The question of working until April 9th was also considered, and it was decided by a major- ity to work for tho nine days 'unies-> the Cardiff conference on Saturday decides otherwise. THE BWLLFA WORKMEN'S PROTEST. On. Saturday evening, a.t a meeting of the workmen of the Bwllfa Collieries (Nos. 1, 2, and 3), held at the Public Trecvnon, Mr. D. 0. Morris in the chair, reference was made to the discussion at the meeting of the Con- eiliarion Board re the new agreement.—The delegate to the monthly meeting at the Bute Arms said that there was evidently on the part of some of the leaders a great desire to settle, but he hoped that their Agent (Mr. Stanton) and those who felt with him would not give away the rights >n the matter.—Mr. J. Prowle {oh-gcjcfweigher) said he had no confid- ence in :¿"1y of the leaders. They had al- ready oonceded far too much, and it was full time for the men in the various districts to cry halt to those who were so ready to give away the rights of the men.—At the close, a resolu- tion • was unanimously passed, thanking Mr. Stanton for the efforts which he had made at the meeting against a strong opposition to safe- guard 'the rights of the miners of South Wales in the present crisis. The meeting expressed a hope that no compromise would b,) accepted, but that the men's demands would be forced forward to the end.

The tables were tastefully decorated by the following ladies and pcntleinen :—Miss Eliz. Hughes, Mrs. Mary Martin, Mrs. M. A. Howells, Miss C. Hughes, Mr. J. Williams (Muriel-terrace) and the Rev. and Mrs. W. C. Thomas. A.S.R-S.—At the ordinary meeting of the Dowlais Branch A.S.R.S., on Sunday last, a. resolution was adopted supporting the second reading of the Minority Report Bill in the House of Commons, on tho 9th prox., and it was decided that the secretary (Mr. J. Collins), should send a copy to the Prime Minister, also to the two local Parliamentary representatives, asking them to be in the House and vote for the second reading. HERMON CHAPEL.—On Good Friday night the Children's Choir, assisted by adult ladies, gave a performance of Challinor's Good Shepherd," in Welsh, under the leadership of Mr. J. R Morgan.

INQUEST.—Od Thursday week, Mr. R. J. Rhys, Borough Coroner, held an inquest on the eight weeks old child of Spanish parents, living at Brecon-street.—The mother, Vargina, wife of Eliaso Pozes, said the child died at quarter to nine on Thursday evening; it was alive at 7 o'clock, in the cradle. The child was fed on the breast, which it took at 7 o'clock. Its face was not wholly covered.—The evidence of the mother was given in Spanish, and was interpreted by a young Spanish woman, who has lived in Dowlais some years.—Dr. Mac- donald, of Dr. Cresswell's medical staff, said he saw the child at 9.30 that evening, and it appeared as if it had been suffocated by being covered up. It was quite clean, and well cared for, but a weak child. Most likely it had died of convulsions.—A verdict to that effect was recorded. GODDEN MEMORIAL HALL.—A farewell meeting was held at this place to bid bon voyage to Mr. Foster Five, 19, Gwladys-street, Caeracca, who has left the town for Canada. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Alfred Brown, who spoke of the loss to the church, but expressed the hope that some other church in Canada would benefit. After the deacons had spoven in feeling terms of Mr. Flye's ability as a Sunday school teacher, Mr. S. Chivers presented Mi*. Flye, on behalf of the church, with a Japanese travelling bag, as a token of respect. Mr. Flyo responded feel- ingly. Mr. Joshua Evans rendered solos, and the meeting closed with the hymn, God be with you till we meet again." Mr. Tom Flye left on Wednesday morning by the 9.30 L. & N.W. Railway, when many of his friends gave him a good send-off. FOOTBALL.—On Good Friday the Railway men of Dowiais played the Dowlais Thursday A.F.C., on Penydarren Park (kindly lent by the Merthyr Athletic' Committee) for the benefit of the A.S.R.S. Orphan and Benevolent Funds. The attendance was very small. The Mayor (Mr. F. T. James) was announced to kick off at 11 a.m., but was unable to attend, having been called away from home. A deputy was found in Mr. Dd. Davies, who made a good attemp.t to kick off, bat he tried to send the turf and ball together. The game was very fast and very interesting from start to finish. The Railway- men ran out- vie tors ,by 2 goals to one. This is a very creditable performance for the Railway- men inasmuch as most of the players had had very little practice, and the Thursdays, who beat the Raihvaj-men a year ago by 4 to 0, were the last season's runners-up for the Scuda- mor Cup. The gate realised f2 4s. 9d. AFTER THE HOLIDAYS.—Now that the Easter Holidays are over, and the differences between masters and men are in a fair way of settlement, we shall settle down to our normal state in this district, and it is hoped that not only colliers but those engaged in the iron and steel works will benefit largely from the freeing of the dead- weight that appeared to have settled down on everyone in the district lately. All, far and near, will be enabled to rejoice together, and hope that a season of great prosperity will dawn on the neighbourhood once again. Messrs. J. S. Davies & Co., Dowlais, after the hurly-burly of the Easter preparations and its business, announce that they are now quite prepared to execute orders for all kinds of spring novelties, for women, maids and children, and they also desire to mention that at their clothing depart- ment, at 118, High-street, every article for men's youths' and boys' wear may be found.

Dowlais Man's Escape. NEARLY ASPHYXIATED AT BIRMINGHAM. Evan Thomas aged 40, of 47, Franis-ltreet, Dowlais, had a narrow escape from being suffo- cated by gas fumes at the Waverley Hotel, Birmingham, on Sunday morning. Mr. Tho- mas arrived in Birmingham on Saturday on a visit and put up at the hotel. He retired to rest on Saturday night and nothing was heard of him during the night. It was not until the boots knocked at the bedroom door several times on Sunday morning, and obtained no re- sponse that anything was found to be amiss. The room then being entered, Mr. Thomas was found unconscious in bed. There was a strong smell of gas, and it wa.; discovered that the tap of the, gas jet was turned full on. The windows were thrown open, and two police constables rendered assistance to the unconscious man. After fifty minutes' work, tbeir efforts to restore animation were successful, and Tho- mas was removed on an ambulance to the Gen- era! Hospital. It is thought that Mr. Thomas accidentally turned on the gas tap after having put the gas out on retiring to bed. M'f. Thomas is a comparative stranger to Dowlais. At one time he thought of entering the Churoh, but owing to failing health Ee did not proceed with his studies

Suicide at Dowlais. COLLIER CUTS HIS THROAT. A collier, named David Griffiths, 52, married man, who lived at 43, Mount Pleasant- street, Dowlais, committed suicide on Monday. He got up about 6.30, and lit the fire, and, after calling his wife, they took breakfast together. After breakfast. Griffiths said he was going to have a shave, and commenced stropping his razor, which was hanging behind the door of the front room. Just after that his wife heard a fall, and she and her son David went to see what had happened. They found deceased had cut his throat.—Dr. H. Lewis-Hughes, J.P., and Police-constable Woosley were sum- moned to deceased, but they found he had bled to death. Griffiths had not worked for the last fortnight through indisposition. The inquest was held at Clarence Hotel, Dowiais, on Tuesday, before the Borough coroner, Mr. R. J. Rhys.—Mrs. Margaret Ann Griffiths, the widow, said her husband had not been working lately, as he was suffering from rheumatism. He was attended by Dr. Waller, of Dr. Cresswell's medical, staff. Her husband went to work again for eight days, but was obliged to stop again as he was working in a very wet place, and he thought it was bad for his health. He worked at Cwmbargoed Pit. They had been married 28 years, and he had never threatened to do anything to himself. She was asked- 9--1- to any traces of insanity in his family, and said there were none, but a niece drowned herself about seven years ago.—Deceased's son gave evidence, and also P.C. Woosley.— Dr. H. Lewis-Hughes said he was called to the house about 7.30 on Monday morning, and found the man had bled to death from a wound in the throat, all the blood vessels in the throat having been severed. —Dr. Waller spoke to having attended deceased the last time about a month ago, as he was suffering from rheumatism. Witness did not notice anything peculiar about. him.—The jury returned a verdict that deceased died from wounds self-inflicted, while temporarily insane. —One of the jurymen stated incidentally that deceased was at one time a euard on the L. & WR t 7 --4,

Dowlais Ladies' Choir at Aberaaven nv. RECEPTION FOR THE VICTORS. On Easter Monday the Doivlais Ladies' C'S ofl} scored another success at the Abergavenny Eisteddfod. Tt was an easy win—the markij gained by them, 82 in all, being eighteen ahea<$ of the choir placed second. This was theilfc third venture into the competitive arena, th# initial appearance being made at Abcroavennj^ Eisteddfod, twelve months 8:,0, when they v er^ awarded second prize the sec ond at Rl.ymne^i Eisteddfod, Whit-Tuesday of last year, wheat they took the premier prize. With a trio off successes to their credit the choir are eertainl warranted in bidding for honours at the nexfr; National Eisteddfod, at Colwyu Bay. There was a most enthusiastic reception fo. the choir when they arrived in Dowlais on Monday night. After arranging themselves outside th. L. & N.W. station, at Caeharris, in order to d a triumphal march through the town, thil assembled populace were keenly disappointed to find that the too modest conductor (Mr. Win. Hughes) had succeeded in eluding them, an4 had arrived at his home in Broad-street som. time before the procession. A lively scene wa4 enacted when the ladies and the large following came to a halt at Mr. Hughes's residence. Many ro,.indsof cheering were raised, and the4 there were loud cries from the crowd for ai. song." After some pressing, Mr. Hughes1 mounted a chair fixed inside the lighted fron% room, and the window was lowered in orde# to hear piano accompaniment, which i# indispensable for an effective rendering of tho test piece, From the green heart of the waters" (Coleridge Taylor). The choir's per* formance was greeted with great cheering from the audience, who now demanded "Yr Haf (Gwent), which was sung in a delightful manner. After the cheering had subsided, Mr. Hughe* thanked the assembly for their very kind an enthusiastic reception, and then came the; dispersal. Owing to a slight indisposition of Mr. Arthur P. Hughes (the permanent accom -• panist of the choir), Mr. Gwilym Thongs, of Penywern, very kindly acted as accompanist in the competition, a duty which he perfmlled with ability. The choir meets agaii; this (Friday) evening, at Brynsion School-room.
