Passing Pleasantries. TWO OF A FEATHER. ""hen Lord High Admiral the Duke of Clarence, afterwards William the' Fourth of England, went down to Portsmouth to inspect the naval establishment, the first person he tuct was his jolly old messmate and friend. Captain Jack Towers. The Prince took him by the hand and said lalighihglv, "Why, Jack, my boy, they tell me you are the greatest blackguard in all Portsmouth!" Oh? exclaimed Towers. "Well. I hope your Royal Highnes3 has not come down to deprive me of my c'Haracter?" • ■ FINE DETERMINATION"- Not very long ago a wealthy tradesman calicd-at the office of a firm in the same iiae of business as himself and asked for. M r. Budge, the head .partner. The caller pro- nounced the name plain. "Budge.' "You want to see Mr. Boo-juy?" sakl the office-boy. "No, I don't want-to see Mr. B(To-iay-f want, tt) see Mr. Budge." said the tradesman. "Well. there is ao such man here," said the office-boy. "Yes, there is," war tire "response:- "I have been corresponding tfiiii him for ten years." "How do you spell it?." asked the olficc-bpy. "B-u-d-s-e." 8aid the tradesman.. "That,spells Boo-jay," said the boy. "Well, it spells Budge to mc." said the (-alter, "and I a-in't going to b"o-jay frum th& stilt until 1, iM. Mr. MORE COMFORTABLE QUARTERS.

ASSOCIATION CODE. Oom ing Intertf-ationalat Cardiff. CHANCE FOR REFEREES NEW AND OLD. Cardiff Riverside Football Cinb is rapidly coming to the front., and- twmohe is the credit of this due more than to Mr. Bartley Wilson. Mr. Wilson has never qualified as one of those expeVt soloists who are given to blowin g their own trumpets, neifhérdOeff tre believe in the big drum advertisement. He works quietly, but none the less «ffectiv«ljt„ and, it is .quite on the cards when this-column catches hi* eye that he will, have, a bone 'to pick with me for my having dared to jsing his praises. That I vmi risk. Besides, it is almost certain that, if Mr. Wilson comes on the warpath after me. the members of the Rirersidc Athletic Club -will be close behind on his trail, and lDreTeiit -him from doing-much mischief to a harmless, but well meaning writer.. I started to write a.bout the Riverside Football Club. and, as was inevitable under the circumstances, have been obliged to brin$in M £ .jW> Th; young fe;lows of Riverside'WottI? not Th yonn¡;- feilows ,f'Rlve;!i__e -.011! not have to hunt much to find1 plenty of worse | methods of spending a spare homr or two in > the evenings than by fatten diiag tl»e Well appointed club' r?o, at thft ,ba. £ k of' -M vk- street.

Young fellf?ws alwaya ha?e <tnd always "Ú1:III hanker after bHIiaj'da?and here the wieh can) be gratified under the most favourable on- i ditions. The Riverside Fo6t6ail Club is to be1 heartily congratulated on its enterprise, and I for one. wish the elob. every shccess in its endeavours to meet a'social want. 'The mem- bers are the best, .of good fellows, and are sensible enough to appreciktethorquzhil Y, and not to abuse, the endeavours of Yr. Wilson on their behalf. On the playing field a good eleven can be turned out, ami j many, teams PIay a. worse game. At Merthyr Vaie CTprybody was delighted with their exhi- I' bition of Soccer, and the Yalians readily gave them every credit. On the other band. River- side were,full of the good time they had had and of the extremely sportsmanlike treatment accorded to them by the Merthyr Yale Club. They hope that this outing is not the iast they will have to Merthyr Vale. Last week the I club had its annual outing to Bristol, and. despite .the excursion train ride,, easily annexed and brought home in triumph the scalp of Gloucester House. Amongst South vr?les Soccer followers the coming in.t(.rn<ttioF¡" I is keenly ajntic-ipated. Relief is expressed all round at the oat come of the challenge to the council's decision- As ;,is now well known. the council at Wrexham [last Monday decided by a strong majority to adhere to its first decision, and. for the first time in the history of the meetings of Scot- lanoialHl Wales, the" match "will be played in j the iouth. Scotland has Ion? been famiug for the skill of its Soccer footballers, and. if on no other grounds. we ean be absolutely certain that the match on the Cardiff Arms Park on Surch 9 will be worth coming a long -way to see. Wales herself has, perhai): never had such a' choice of class players, and. it the men can all' turn out that are sure to, be chosen, j t a battle royal will be the dutcoiiev Etigfand at Portsmouth on 'tonday week is by no means sure of winning. For this match at Cardiff. I bear that the Scotsmen are pleased at the selection of Cardiff, for they ii i-.e long desired 'to be allowed to visit another part of the Principality. And on one point they can.regt assured--ihe Cardiff Football Ground is ora of the finest playing grounds in the country, and on that score they will have nothing to Iesire. To-day try tiMir lack in t' i fi'at:)fie National Cup, and meet the Druids :it Wrpxhfrf): In the Druids they will be opposed by on" o" the strongest combinations in Wale! and if the South Walians are suc- cEesfal they "wi'l hate a very good— ciiAHce of carrying off the coveted trophy. I think I am right in saying that Aberaman have cow goac, further than.. any other Southern tam in the past in this competi- lion, and the FoothaH Edition .o-night w'íIl I be e?g?r!y ?nanpe? up.

Porth, however, have done extremely well of late, and I do I not anticipate that they will lose to-day. A win fur Barry, however, will be extremely gratifying to the workers down there.

DR. JOSEPH PARRY'S LAST COMPOSITION. + I I I t, l l "■ ■' _i L J ■ The above is a facaiante of Dr. Joseph, Parry's last composition. It is a chorus for his well-known song, "Make new friends, but keep the old." His friend Mr. Tom Stephens told him a few weeks ago that the song ought to have a refrain, and the doctor readily pro- mised to write one. With characteristic des- patch he composed it the same night and posted it to Mr. Stephens. The "Will this do, r Tom?" at the bottom suggests the happy rela- tionehip that existed bctweeuthe two.

I FULL OF PRETTY GIRLS COVENTRY S GALLANT REPUTATION. Coventry work-girls spend their lives in buildings for Ihe most. part well-designed, clean, and airy, where work is not, unpleasant. This iq. perhaps, why Coventry lasses rival in physique and attractiveness of appearance any of their rex. Thos gallantly boasts the "Midland Daily Telegraph." which publishes the portrait of a topical Coventry girl, Miss Eva Harper, the I A -Co v e n t'r-y. Trimming Maker. daughter of a highly res pectable family well known i n the neigh- bourhood of Hs home at 64. George- street, Cov- entry. At one time, in a slowly dying condil tion, Mist.

"I began to be troubled with the symptoma of I :?nmnua. and to e:Xrienc,c the fainting fits. [ shortness of breath, and lack of appetite. I which, in spile of the most skilful medical treatment, were soon to make my life a burden. If I went upstairs it was with diffi- culty, I was so weak and my breath was so short. My cheeks and lips were colourless, and I suffered much from palpitation of the heart. I was under two doctors, and took ever so many different kinds of medicines, but I continued in this state for over eighteen months, and was: nent away trom work. The first box of Dr. Williabis' pink pfMs did not seem to do me much good, but when I had taken the second I was able, to eat the firet meal I had really enjoyed for. over twelve months. I took one box a week for a mouth, and at the end of that time I was sufficiently recovered to be able to go back to work. Six boxes in. all restored me completely to health, and I feel as well now as ever I did in my life." A pale cheek, dull eyes, poor complexion, lost vitality, breathlessriess, and palpitating heart denote poor blood. The condition leads to consumption: it is too dangerous to neglect: too dangerous to play with substitutes. rfh,' pills that cure it are the genuine Dr. Wiliiama', and they alone. fh not ri!,j.¡ your life with purgatives or substi- tutes. but if you experience any difficulty iu o-btaining the genuine pills send two shillings and ninepence for (,tfO..box (o.- thirteen gnd, nine for six) to Dr. "Williams' medicine com- pany, HolbnT,n-viaduct, lo-idoii.

[ POPE'S JUBILEE. 9 "to Celebrations at the I Vatican. THE I HOLY FATHER IN GOOD HEALTH. The Pope yesterday celebrated the twenty- fifth anniversary of his accession to the Papal See. Maes was celebrated at half-past ten at St. Peter's, ltome, by Cardinal Ram- pollo, the service being over about noon. About that time a number of people entered the Vatican, in order to be present at the reception of pilgrims by the Pope. His Holi- ness entered the Sala Regia at noon, amid shouts t>f applause and cries of "Long live the Pope." The Holy Father, who appeared in excellent health, smiled and pronounced his benediction. The Pope afterwards left the Sala Regia and entered the Hall of Beatification, where there were 6.000 gn-ests, among whom were a certain { number of Belgian pilgrims. Fresh outbursts of applause greeted the Pope's entry. His Holiness then ascended the throne. On his right hand were members of the Pacci family, and on his left the Spanish Ambassador Extra- ordinary. Seven cardinals and several bishops were present. Cardinal Ferrari. in the name of the Lombardian pilgrims, read a congratulatory address. The Holy Father expressed his thanks and pronounced the Bene- diction. Many presents were offered to the Pope, among them being a golden tiara and symbolic keys. At one o'clock in the after- j noon the Pope returned to his private apart- t ments, amid enthusiastic demonstrations. A telegram from Rome yesterday states:- Among the English prelates present were Mgr. Edmund Stonor, Archbishop of Trebi- zond; Dr. Bourne, Bishop of Southwark; Father William Whitmee, rector pf the English Roman Church; and the Mgrs. Wil- liam Giles, Robert Fraser, William Murphy, rectors of the English, Scotch, and Irish colleges; also Father George Clapin, rector of the Canadian College. Cardinal Vaughan has directed) a Te Denm to 'be sung in all Roman Oatholic churches of the arch-diocese of Westminster, to celebrate the Papal Pontifical Jubilee on March 3. An address of congratulation will also be pre- sented to the Pope by the English Hierarchy.

Another yo-un- club which has rapidly come on is the Cardiff Albion, and for them to reach the semi-final of the cup in the first year of their entering for it is distinctly creditable, Even if they go no farther this year, their reputation is safe. Anywhere out of Cardiff the Afbions already are a good "draw," and another season will be able easily to arrange a very strong fixture list. Llanbradach. their opponents in the semi-final" at Quaker's Yard, are also a good team. and. what i- more. both base their methods on the same style. Both are accustomed to play on a fine, level gr0urd. and the winners are urc to make a bold Lid for the cup. After many tries Abergavenny and Pont. I lottyD have n<?' '!CUlcd thei" cup tic. 'Me fnjuanicr at Da?e'-t?wn was far from unin- torestin.g. Bolb team* started well. putting ia,ll they '?new. utth?u?h the styles adopted by. each were quite diffcr&nt. Abpr?avenny played the short, quick, passing, game one delights to see. which is so effective en a dry ground. Pontlottyn. on the other hand, went in- for the km?. • swinging passes and quick following up which always ppelt danger on the heavy going. Both defences were in capi- tal condition, and were superior to the attack. Extra time had '+-0 be played, out, play-was not so good, both teams having palpably tired. Pontlottyn. however, scored in the last quar- ter. The Abergavenny goalkeeper, taking" the ball, had the misfortune to place it at the toe of an opponent, who forthwith made no mis- take. Mr. Amos gave every satisfaction with J'lidntie, as referee; .i¡d in this series of contests has gained inany admirers hy his impartial handling of such keen rivals. XexlThnrPJliày the ordinary monthly nlNt. ing of the referees' society will be held at the. Alexandra Hotel. Referee Cjuinton has kindly undertaken to open 'a discussion on some of the man3- points which referees have to dcidr, and an instructive and interesting meeting is certain. All are welcome to attend, and those young referees who have recently quali- fied 'are' here extended art invitation to call in. t1 one is ever too" old to learn, and no two thatches are ever alike in the variety of points which crop up for a referee to decide. rt Thareday; Kernels. Sorry .tlicsc were missing last week. My fault.. j Red, of. Abergavenny, is a fine player, either as back or forward. The Flrth man had a hunt for his "stuff" on Thursday. Wales has chosen a grand team vereua Eng- land. Hope the players will get off. Congratulations to Mr. Watkius on his posi- tion in the international. Will wave the flag at Portsmouth. Hope to return to the affiliation question next week. I What doesi Percy Oaten think of the young G.irdiff team? Tom Stringer now a ren-sLered referee. He well deserves his offkial recognition. -j The Schools League inter-town match should be well patronised. Next Saturday at the Newport-road ground. Always provides attractive football. Well worth witnessing. Cardiff gave Roggy a hard fight. Tonng Edwards gave a very promising show. Plenty of dash and go. Ileitzroan making friends every match. Always the same quiet lad.
