COAL MINES' ACT OFFENCE. MANAGER CF KILLAN COLLIERY SMOKED I AT SWANSEA 1-ijLiCF GùUHf, At the bwansea County Police Court' on Wednesday, Edward Evanvs, Walter- road, Swanse<t, manager of the Kilian Collieries, Dunvant, was summoned for an offence against the Coal M:nes Act, 1911, in that he did fail to keep in the office of the mine an accurate plan of the workings of the mine prepaied by or under the supervision of a surveyor pos- sessing the prescribed qualification, the plan required to be kept in the mine by the owner, agent or manager under sec- tion 20 sub section (I) (I) (:1) of the Coal Mines Act, 1911. Mr. Edward Powell who prosecuted, said the Dome Oific-c became awaro of the fact that the surveys of the colliery were beiug made by a Mr. Knoyie in the course of the iatter'H application, for a certihcute. Mr. Edward J fan-in defending, admitted that the man Knoyie was not qualified to make this survey as far as the Act was concerned because he did not hold a certi- ficate, although he wits a competent man. Mr. Harris contended that it was due to an interval of a fortnight when Mr. Roberts, who employed Mr. Knoyle, was j taking a partner, and, a? regards Mr. Evans he was not to be blamed for the slip. The ca--e wsis disnussed on payment of costs.

ACQUITTED I MADAME CAILLAUX ALLOWED TO GO FREE EXTRAORDINARY SCENES. Madame Caillaux, wife of the ex- Minislcr of Finance for franco, was or. Tuesday night acquitted of the charge oi murdering Al. Caimette, editor of the i'igaro, aud was discharged. Extraordinary scenes took place during the trial. Maitre Selignian, in addressing the jury, said: "fhe sons of Gaston Calmette asked us to bring them to court, so that they might cry to the jury for justice against, the murderess of their father. He refused this ordeal to their filial piety, but do not forget, gentlemen of the jury, that not far from, here two orphans, dressed in black, are waiting the verdict which wili do them justice." Prisoner Collapses. Maitre Chenu followed with a scathing indictment of the prisoner, whom he de-j scribed as a strong-willed, cold-blooded woman, with perfect self-possession, Counsel was dealing with M. Caillaux I when the prisoner ftiinied. On recovering sh", showed symptoms of approaching hysterics and was taken out. ot court. Aiaitre Labori, for the accused, spoke with comparative brevity. He contended that the crime was committed without preaieditatiou, the stolen letters being the: cause. The jury withdrew, and were in retire- merit for an hour and a quarter. Whenj they returned the audience jumped on to tables and benches, despite the judge's' orders. The Verdict. Three questions had been put to the jury, the first two being: L Has the accused been guilty of murder 2. Was the murder committed with premeditation r The third' question concerned the ques- tion of extenuating cir cum stances. Amid impressive silence the ioreman of the ju-ry, a little old man with a weak voice, said, Upon their souls and con- sciences, the jurymen have answered To question No. 1: -No. To question No. 2: :\0 Then ari,ama?ang scene took place (MYS an eye-witness). A number of people in. rbe court shouted Bravo! Vive Caillaiix! while there was also a little hooting- The President ordered that the accused should be brought in to hear the derision. "Down with Caillaux." At this moment a barrister waved his cap in the air, shouting Long livo France! Down with corruption This was the signal for an extraordinary up- roar. and amid the shouting of M Caillaux's friends voices in the crowd hooted wiklly, and lor about ten minuteil kept shouting "Assassin! Assassin! Down with Caillaux! In the meantime Mine. Caillaux was brought in, supported by two warders. L Caillaux rushed towards his wife and kissed her several times. Mme. Caillaux, who looked exhausted, collapsed, and was taken out while the uproar continued, and the words of the presiding judge who said: Madame, you are free," were lost in the noise. Around the Palace of Justice a large crowd manifested approval or disapproval of the verdict, but the police had taken their precautions, and no serious disorder i occurred. Madame Caillaux was taken to a small ward in the infirmary of the Conciergerie, and subsequently drove with her husband to a friend's house.

SIR GRIFFITH THOMAS' GIFT. Swansea Hospital Boar d of Manage- Wan8Ca HospitJ\.l Board of Manage- ment met on Wednesday, Col. W. L.! Mor?npre&idi-ng. j Condolence was expressed with H'e rela- tives or the late Mr. M. H. Williams, the late Miss Clara Thomas, and the late Dr. Gomer Lewis. The House Committee reported receipt of a letter from Sir Griffith thouias, .tating that he bad paid t4 sum of '-1,050 to the treasurer to be invested in the name of the I Board of Management, the interest to be applied for the use and ;)onetit. of the Hospital. Should he later oa decide to completely endow a bed in the Hospital, to be called after someone he might designate, then the interest arising from the money now in question i was to be applied, and used as part of the endowment.—The Board decided to convey sincere thanks to Sir Griffith Thomas. It was resolved that thanks be conveyed j to the Mayoress (Mrs. Corker), the hou. secretary (Mrs. H. D. Williams), and Miss Jessie J. Rosser, and all the ladies who acted as presidents and flower- sellers in conueftion with Alex:üalra Day, fof the handsome donation of £ :M (?. Id. towards the funds of the Hospital. r

The operating theatres of the great London hospitals were crowded yesterday with American surgeons, who are at- tending the mtll annual session of the Clinical Congress of Surgeons of North! America. One of the main objects of the j Congress is to give American surgeons an opportunity of observing the clinical ■ methods of London surgeons in actual/II operation in their own hospitals. r

SIR ALFRED MONO AND TYRONE. II A REPLY TO THE CRITICISMS OF MR. MOORE. -1 I THE DEMAND FOR EXCLUSION The Right Hon. Sir Alfred Mond, Bart., M.P.. writes to the as follop.-s: My letter, which Mr. J. B. Gunning Moore criticises in your issue of to-day, was written on the 17th inst., that is, at a time vrlien Sir Edward Carson and his followers insisted upon the exclusion of all Ulster. In contending that that de- mand was not justified, [ said: Donegal, Monaghan, and Cayan, s well as the greater part of Tyrone and part of Armargh. aro ovei'wtu-imingiy nationalist, to suc-li an extent that in a great majority of the Hunts the Nationalist candidate is liivi even opposed." Air. Moore garbles this statement by separating the reference, to Tyrone from its context. As mentioned iu my letter, my Ava, based upon your map and the statistical details Irom ttie last: Census reproduced in it. Now that in- formation shows a considerable majority oi Catholics in three of the Parliamentary divisions of Tyrone, while the Protestant majority in the fourth, South Tyrone, is only 78b. The total number of Catholics in Tyrone is 7$>,015, as compared with «;{,660 Protestants. If my statement re- ferred to Tyrone alone, this proportion of Catholics (55.! per cent.) to tho Protes- tans (44.(J per cent.) would not justify the application to it of the epithet over- whelmingly Nationalist, but that state- ment did not do so: while it seems to me that the actual figures for Tyrone justify my contention. Indeed, Mr. Moore him- self cannot get away from the fact that out of the four constituencies in Tyrone three are held hy Home Rulers and only one by a Unionist. This surely justifies my statement thut Tyrone is substantially. Nationalist. My whole object was to find some for- mula upon which a settlement might reasonably bo based. For this purpose Parliamentary representation appears to be as reasonable a basis as any that ha? thus far bfen suggested. In fairness it should be pointed out that West Belfast, j which. as ..¡t Nationalist majority, wa,s thrown into the excluded area without any quid pro quo in the shape of Unionist seat in another county. Of course, if every majority is to be closely scrutinised and if all kinds of speculations are to be entered into as to what r,-ay or may not j happen in future elections, and whether or not county council majorities represent certain definite political policies, any scheme of settlement becomes quite im- possible. Some basis must be adogted, and any basis having to some extent to be arbitrary must necess^ily lead to a cer- tain amount of difficulty. Mr. Moore seems to belong to that curious but unfortunately numerous class who contend that an Orangeman is always in the majority even when his parlgr- can only poll a minority of vote$. It is this want of fair appreciation of the situation that seems to make a settlement so hope- less. Yours trulv. Alfred Mond. -1 35, Lowndes-sqnare, S.W., July 28.

BUOYS IN THE BAYS. LIFE-SAVINP. APPLIANCES TO BE USED I AT MUMBLES; The monthly meeting of the Oyster- mouth Urban District Council was held on Tuesday, Councillor Frank Peer pre- siding. The following members were present:—Councillor Harry Davies. John Harris, W. L. Jarvis, James Harris, Harry Boxworth, David Beynon, John J. Jones, and J. Cumming Evans. The Surveyor informed the Council that the lile-saving appliances had now been placed at the various bays. Councillor Cumming Evans suggested that buoys should be placed on the bath- ing machines owned by Messrs. Howells and Kift in Langland. This was agretlll to. Mutilating Shrubs. The Park Keeper in his report com- plaived of I much damage being done to shrubs, trees, and flowers on the prom- enade. Councillor John Harris: It is disgrace- ful. I cannot understand why things are different here to other places. There does not seem to be any regulations with regard to the preservation of public pro- perty. Councillor Harry Davies: I have seen boys myself mutilating the flowers and shrubs with sticks. I- would suggest that the Park Keeper take the names of the offenders in order that an example may be made of them. Councillor Jarvis proposed that pro- ceedings be taken against a .certain lad whose mime was mentioned in the report. —Councillor James .Harris seconded. This was agreed to. Coin Meters Tampered With. The Surveyor reported that the coin meters in the sanitary conveniences had been tampered with, and money bad been missing. He also reported that the police had the matter in hand. Cab Owners' Protest. A deputation of hackney cab owners attended. Mr. Steddiford, who spoke on behalf of the deputation, objected to the placing of the cab stand in the position decided upon by the Council. They weie now placed against a dead wall, and out of the way altogether. They had ex- perienced a great difference already. Why could not the council provide stands like I other towns? The Chairman said that tl1'e matter should receive their consideration after the deputation had withdrawn. The Surveyor said that the contract for the new stand had been given, and. the work was now in hand. After further discussion it was decided to allow matters to remain as they are. Councillor John J. Jones drew the at- tention of tho council to the fact that cab owners were allowing their vehicles to stand in the Dunns, which was a nar- row thoroughfare. Councillor Jarvis: The attention of ti:Q police should Le drawn to the matter. Plans.

HOSPITAL EXTENSION tRs. I PROPOSAL TO SPEitO £ 11,400 AT SWANSEA. I PURCHASE CF RAûWM. I J At the meeting of the Board oi Manage- ment cftho Swansea Hospital on Wed- nesday, the Building Committee reported having approved of the plans 'for the North Wing extensions. I Moving the report, the Chairman of the j Committee (Mr. Aeron Thomas) said larger accommodation was wanted. They had heard a good deal of the falling on of annual subscriptions, and there was a deficit of ';t, ill on general account, but their yearly subscribers had more than maintained the degree of liberality shown last year. He believed as long as they fhd Kood work the necessary funds would hp, forthcoming, and he was not at 1.111 pessimistie as to tlie income. Be wished the overd rawn building account had been reduced to less thau £ö,Otti, hut he thought the account had been suthcitntly reduced for them to consider improvements that ought to be carried out. By the will of the late Mr. Graham Vivian, the Hospital had receii ed the very handsome donation of ArlO.OOo on condition that a ward be named after him. Most or thefii felt that the word of 21- beds they had contem- plated for some time, above the Llewelyn Ward, should be the Graham Vivian Ward. That vou'd cost C5,kloo: renova- j tions to Llewelyn Ward £ 1,250. and co?n- fortuble servants' accommodation cost- ing .t'1,220, and other times would bring thn total to 28.356, not including £8:í\ for I contingencies. Additions to the eYG de- j partnient were proposed at a cost of j £ 1,000. and thf> total of the whole work i was t1U,í)H. Of tli? £ 10.0(10 bequest he thought at least £ 5.000 could bs ear- marked fo" the work. Mr. Tuckfieid seconded. Mr. Goldberg said as there was a reso- lntion that no. further building operations be carried out until more funds were available, did the Board not think that it was discourteous in not asking the Committee to express an opinion. No one would deny the need of the im- provements at the eye hospital, but he j thought unless more money was forth- coming they should be cautious. I Eventually it was decided to proceed with the work at flic eye hospital on ap- proval by the Finance Committee, and to defer the matter of the Vivian Ward for a month. Purchase of Radium. Mr. A"rrm Thomas said thev bad now ?Nft-.

According to members of j the congregation, the vision has made a re-appearance on the wall, and in a con- versation with our representative with regard to the matter, the Missioner (Mr. Stephen Jeffreys) said on Tueaffay night: "We have Imd a reo-appearance of the won- derful vision on the wall of the Man of Sorrows. It was revealed to us once more ion Saturday night and was witnessed by ) very many. The apparition was very similar to the preceding one, and people who were not here before aw it this time." In addition to tho services that are being held each night without inter- mission at the Island House Mission Hall, open-air meetings are held at the summit of the Bigyn every Sunday morning, and although these begin at eight o'clock, hundreds of people assemble there. The Missioner, who during the services does not spare himself in the least, makes house-to-house visits during the day-time, hut he lays stress on the fact that he does not want to entreat those who already at- i tend a place of worship to come to the worship. This declaration was made from the pulpit on Tuesday night by the Missioner. Converts to be Baptised.

WHAT WORRY DOES. Anxiety and worry have most harmful effects upon the nervous system. Over- work a bo causes a man to become nervous and inclined to worry. This feeble statu of the nervous system often ends in what the doctor calls Neurasthenia—which is nervous exhaustion. If you cannot devote your mind iuily to business or work, if you are not sure of yourself, feel excitable and depressed, take heed. You will find sleep does not rest you, your memory will play tricks, your limbs ache and tremble after any walk or exertion, and there is a dull pin in your back. You must take prompt steps to stop this progressive mischief that may develop into neurasthenia; you must nourish yon?: ne-rves with the one food they need—rich new blood. Nothing so surely- renews the I supply of strong red blood as Dr. Wil- limlls' Pink Pills, and this is the reason tb.ev are so valuable iu nervous diseases iu both SPxp'" Even children benpht from the ne of th('e Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

A GREAT ADVOCATE MEMBERS OF SOUTH WALES CIRCUIT REFER TO LATE IVIR. B. F. WILLIAMS. ben the Assize Court resumed at Swansea on Wednesday, Mr. Justice Law- rezw" and Mr. Justice Atkin both attended in the Crown Court where a large number of barristers had assembled, and sympa- thetic references were made to the late Mr. 13. F. Williams, K.C., the leader of thp circuit. Mr. Justice Lawrence, d dressing Mr. Ivor Bowen, K.C., the senior barrister present, said that before they passed to the business of the day it was fitting that he should say a words about the loss which the circuit had sustained in the death of its leader. His Lordship had lost a friend üft. standing, and they had lost a leader who began his career when Groves Giffard led the circuit—two ot the finest intel- lects of the century. Benjamin Francis Williams bad made his mark from the first, and for a whole generation he had led the circuit wbet^ other men bad came and gone. He possessed in a high degree the qualities of a great advocate, said his Lordship, who referred to Mr. Williams' caustic huracur, repartee and his great power of criticism in cross-examination. In his private life his strength of will and self-control marked him as standing high above the plane of ordinary men. The circuit had lost a great leader and a firm and faithful friend, and his Lordship was sure they would poiu with him in tendering their sincere sympathy to the family. AGrcat Advocate. Mr. Justice Atkin. as a member of the circuit, said that Mr. Francis Williams was a great advocate who had left a name worthy to he placed with the name of that other great advocate and also their senior Hardinge Giffard (Lord Halsburv). As leader of the circuit he was unsur- passed his wit which never wounded, his conduct, his real for the traditions and. good name of the circuit, his kindliness to every member of the circuit (the youngest as well as the oldest"), were qualities which they would always remember. Those qualities had been inherited in no small measure by one of his name, a mem- ber of that circuit, with whom they felt the greatest sympathy. Their leader had left a memory which would long be cherished by the circuit. Scrupulously Fair. Mr. Ivor Bo wen, K.O., associated him- self on behalf of his colleague* with what his Lordship had said. and said that li, had sat at the feet of Francis Wil- liams for a quarter of a century. He was a great counsel, an independent and fear- less advocate, and ho was scrupulously fair to all those who fought with him or against him.
