"A.B.A (ALL BRIGHT ALE). j Analyst's Report 4 —————— 1 Th?L?boMtory, 09, Dook Street, Newport, Mon., September 13th, 1905. Kessre. A. Buchan Co., Rhymney. Dear Biro, I have analysed a sample Gallon of your "ALL BRIGHT ALE" received from you In Screw-Stoppered Flagons, and beg to hand you my Report. This is a most inviting looking beverage, being abiolutely tree from all traces of turbidity, and, as Its name implies, is bright to the last drop. The results of my analysis shew it to be a Light Bitter Beer of the very highest grade of purity, and in my opinion, is the product of Malt and Hops of first-class quality. The amount of Alcohol present renders it strictly a Light Ale, and its aroma and flavour are excellent. The characteristic bitter of the Hops being well in evidence it forms a most agreeable drink. There is not the slightest trace of any objectionable metallic substance present, and I consider it a very High-class Beer in every respect. Being sent out in Screw-Stoppered Flagons Its high aeration is preserved to perfection in consequence, and thsrs Is no chance of its suffering in condition. I consider it a distinct advance in Bottled Beers for Table ase, and its high general excellence should command a ready sale. It reatly is a splendid sample of Beer, and Z mwt congratulate you on its production. I am, dear Sirs, Yours faithfully, "<11. Qt. 0 rs S GEORGE R THOMPSON, "1") f.1.

I OUR BLINDED SOLDIERS. I SUCCESSFUL CONCERT AT BHYMNEY. I The true patriotism of the public of Rbymuey, and its readiness to ap-, preciate fi-st-class mus-c were again strikingly demonstrated on Wcdoes- day evening in last week, when a grand concert, was given at St. David's Parish Hall (kindly lent, for the oc- casion), by the Blind Musicians, of the National Institute for the Blind, London, the proceeds being devoted to the St. Dunstan's Hostel for out- Blinded Soldiers and Sailors, Regents Park, London. The concert was organised by the Rhymney Male Voice Party, (conductor, Mr A1 el E. Jones), the secretarial duties being faultlessly discharged by Mr D. Morris, (Bryn Seion). There was a crowded audi- ence which testified to the. efficient manner in which the event had been organised. The artistic efforts of the performers revealed the fact that there are amongst the blind some splendid musicians, and encores were quite numerous during the evening. The programme opened with a I sweEtly rendered quartette Who is Sylvia f" by Miss Jackson, Miss Muden, Messrs Brown and Johnson, after which Mr John Arr charmed his auditors with a brilliantly executed violin solo, Gipsy Melodies," a per- formance which was loudly encored, and the skilful player responded. Miss Jackson then rendered "Solveig's Song," which was followed by the pretty song," Love's Garden of Rosea," by MissMargaret Maden. The suc- ceeding item a pianoforte solo, Concert Waltz in D. flat by Mr Ronald Gourltfy, composer of the piece, was another popular item, and the masterly playing of this clever artiste was meritoriously applauded. During the interval Mr Avalon Collard, the representative of the National Institute for the Blind, de- livered a most interesting address on the splendid work of our Blinded Soldiers and Sailors at St. Dunstan's Hostel. The devastation of war was responsible for a vast amount of human suffering, and the provision of that institution had been a great boon and a blessing to those gallant men who had been suddenly plunged into life-long darkness in all the vigour and pride of their manhood. Proceeding Mr Collard gave a resume of the varied activities and facilities afforded at the institution. There were, he said, 386 blinded soldiers now at the Hostel. 204 had passed through St. Dunstan's and were now engaged in useful occupations, whilst there are 110 in hospitals waiting to be admitted to the hostel, for whom accommoda- tion was so urgently needed. St. Dunstan's could be described as a workshop of darkness, a training ground for those who, living in a world entirely different from onrs, must get their living in competition with us, for whom the sun still shines and night is a visible beauty. The lives these men lead are of unending aotivity. There are many spheres of usefulness in front of them, added the speaker, and each man is given full rein to his own inclinations and ap- titude for the various occupations open to him. It did not require a very vivid imagination to realise that the successful prosecution of the work depended entirely on the generous support of the public, who had been ever ready to respond to the appeals made to them for that support. He took that opportunity of expressing their gratitude to Mr and Mrs R. Rutherford for entertaining them and also placing the Directors' House at their disposal, which had greatly helped to make their visit to Rhym- ney a pleasant and happy one. He also desired to extend warmest thanks to the choir and its capable conductor (Mr Abel E. Jones) for so ably organ- ising the concert, and to the inhabit- ants of Rhymney for the magnificent manner in which they had supported the concert. The second part was as follows :—" The Viking Song" (Coleridge Taylor) Misses Jackson and Maden, Messre Brown, Johnson, and friend; Song-The Helston Floral Dance, Mr Frank Watson,. who re- sponded to a hearty encore, and con- tributed another song Violin solo, I (a) Cradle Song," (b) Mazurka No. 1 Mr John Arr, who again cap- I tivated the and ience by his clever play- ing. Song, The Nightingale Miss Jackson Song, My Dreams," Mr Angus Brown, who in response to the hearty applause, gave another popular song; pianoforte selections (a) Music I and Humour (b) Improvisations on seleoted melodies, whish included u' popular Welsh airs, Mr Ronald Gour- ley, Finale, "Our Empire in Arms" (arranged by Mr Collard), Misses Jackson and Maden, Messrs Brown and Johnfion. Previous to the singing of the National" Anthem, Councillor W. T. Hopkin on behalf of the organ- isers, moved a hearty vote of thanks to Mrs A. Price, (Bank House), Mrs J. Curtis, (High Street), and Mrs E. Barrett, (Royal Hotel), for extend- ing hoppitality to some of the artistes. to the Rev. D. Davies, (vicar) for the loan of the hall, Ald. J. Edwards, J.P. for the loan of a piano, and to all kind friends who had in other ways come to their assistance. The speaker also emphasised their indebtedness to Messrs D. T. Evans, (Soethrog), and D. E. Roberts, (High Street) who had so admirably carried out the booking arrangements of the Reserved Seats, from which a handsome amount had been realised. The motion was heartily adopted. It aliouldbe stated that the accompaniments were effici- ently played by Miss Dorothy Capon.

ABERBARGOED THEFT I CHARGE. I Albert Showell (43), cottier, Aber- bargoed, was at a Bargoed court on Friday fined 40s. for stealing a suit of clothes, value 37s. 1 Id., the property of Mr J. Williams, Bon Marche, Han- bury-road, Bargoed. His wife, Mary Ann Showell, for aiding and abetting was discharged under the Probation Act. The evidence tendered showed that a suit of clothes was missed from outside the Bon Marche on May 28, and on the 30th ult. it was pawned at Aberbargoed. Police-Bergeant Row recovered the articles, and later on the defendants were arrested. When charged at the police-station the male defendant said he bought the suit from a man in a public-house and gave 10a. for the articles. Mrs Showell said: I know nothing at all about it."

She had been father and mother to her children, and did not like a delicate child to be oaned. The caM was dismissed on payment of eoeta.

"BLOOD AND TEAR5 PROFITEERS. If tradespeople or their assistants do' Lot realise they are making ex- tortionate profits out of blood and tears at the present time, something must be done to bring home to their minds a sense of responsibility," said the Stipendiary (Mr R. A. Griffith), at Mountain Ash, in fining Florence Emery, manageress of the local branch of the India and China Tea Company, £10 for imposing a condition in con- nection with the sale of sngar.
