[BY PECIAL AXRAXOEMENT—COPTRIGHT.] i PLUCK V. WEIGHT. I I I The northern trades were gradually dying away. and the beat was increasing daily. Yet no one aboard the Bonito seemed to mind it very much except Adam, the cook, and he, being a. fat man, and obliged to spend most of his waking hours over the galley above, sweltered and swore in a. manner alike shocking to eye and ear. Oh. Lord he groaned, as he leaned against the side of the weather door. And we 'aven't crossed the line yet." The cook. after wiping his face on the greasy rag he always carried, and consulting an equally greasy watch, proceeded to take the cabin dinner out of the oven, which he placed oa the locker near the door, ready for the steward. It was a good dinner for a ship thirty days out. There was some tinned soup, roast chicken, dry hash, and dried-apple pie. The chicken which had been ("called" for this particular Sunday dinner was a. fine, fat bird; and as it lay in the pan, all nicely browned, it looked and smelled tempting. Where's that duff-'eaded stooward, I won- der ? said the cook, impatiently eyeing his watch again. 'Ang 'im 'e's allus a-keepin' me waitin' At that moment a short, round-faoed boy, apparently labouring under great excite- ment, rushed to the lee door. Oh, look, doctor, look ha cried. There's something in the water over there "Where?" said the cook, sliding hurriedly to the door. "There! There'" answered the boy, point- ing vaguely toward the horizon. Don't you see something black? "Jigged if I see it," said the cook, with his hand shading his eye. Must have been a blooming old whale, then, or something," grumbled the youngster. When I looked first I made sure it was the sea serpent." "Sea serpent !■" returned the cook, scorn- fully. "Ye ought to 'ave more sense, Tubby." While this conversation between apprentice Tubby and cook Adam was in progression at the lee door, the head and arm of a second small boy appeared at the weather door. The newcomer remained just long enough to grab the fat chicken by the drumsticks and drop it into a deck bucket- Then he disappeared. "Why. don't you believe in the sea serpent, doctor?" asked Tubby, innocently. "Lummy, no," replied the cook. "That's :mm'at as 'as bin busted long ago. Though I remember one time when I was in the Celia G., just outside o' 'Frisco, we seed a long sn-aky critter, with a 'ead on 'im as big as a 'arneaa caA, a lay in' atop o' the water, an' —but I'll tell you about that later. Tubby. 3Ere comes the stooward. The round faced boy vanished in the direc- tion of the poop. and the cook returned to the cabin dinner. "Now, then, Doc, 'urry up, me lad. Th' ole man's feroshus ungry to-day, an ah'm laate now." said the steward, bursting into the galley in his clean apron. He was a ridiculously dumpy individual, with a very red face, piggy eyes, and bristling mutton-chop whiskers. "Coom, coom, man," he continued. what ails tha?" But Adam apparently did not hear him; for he neither moved nor answered. Holding a platter in one band and an upraised fork in the other, he stood like a' ptfrple-faced wax- work, savagely ,a,-rding the empty pan. He exploded at lost with one tremendous "D- They bin an' gone an' done it again!" he screamed to the steward. 'Ooo? Wot? Where?" asked the bewil- dered man from abaft. "The chicken, you fool!" answered the cook. "They've took it." The steward gasped and turned pale. The same thing had happened once before on the voyage, and the captain had-told him then in strong deep-water language that if it occurred a second time he would discharge him when the ship reached Calcutta. 1140b, dear! oh, dear, cookie!" he exclaimed, wringing his pudgy hands. "Wot will we do? 'E'll give us both our walkin' tickets for thi3. 'Oo was it. d'ye think?" "The men, I s'pose," replied the cook, gloomily. "More like them divils o' boys," said the stewaj-d. "Well, it's your fault. anyway, 'ooever it was. If you waan't so rotten skinny with the stores they wouldn't be takin' things." "My fault!" returned the steward, waxing wrath. Didn't you-" The threatened quarrel between the two men was nipped in the bud at this moment by the sound of two bells. Instantly the steward snatched up the soup tureen, and, calling to the cook to follow him to the pantry, he scurried aft. "lire, doctor," he said. after the soup had !been put on the cabin table, "take these-two cans o* boned chicken an' gtoo 'em up quick. If 'e notices the differ I'll tell 'im as 'ow you 'ad a. haxident." "Ay. that's right; tell 'im it was a haxi- dent," whispered the cook. As it h-amened, the skipper and-the mate were indulgiug in one of their periodical rows, and, in consequence, the dinner passed muster. In.,spite of this, however, the steward was by no means satisfied. From what the cook had told him he felt sure that the "boys" were responsible for the theft, and he promised himself a speedy and awful revenge. Now, trouble between the "half deck" (the apprentices' quarters) and the pantry was no new thing: there had been more or less of it ever .since the Bonito had left port, and, so far. Biggs had had the worst of it. The cause of it all was his own astonishing mean- ness. On former voyages the boys had been treated a little differently from the forward hands as regards food. They had been allowed "cabin bread." an extra whack of sugar, oatmeal for breakfast, and were the recognised recipients of the cabin table's spare," all of which are considered afc sea as delicacies. Under Biggs's management, however, these things had been done away with. The boys' very naturally, had resented it. Hence the feud. This new development-the stealing of the captain's isurtday dinner-roused the steward'3 ire to such an extent that he deter- mined upon a return blow which should be crushing and final. He chuckled as he thought of it. The following Sunday the blow fell, and the half deck staggered. It came about in this way. Masters, the only apprentice in the second mate's watch, was below when seven bells was struck. He turned out promptly, and, tin plates in hand, went forward to the galley for his dinner. After receiving the usual ration of "salt horse" and soft bread on one plate. Masters held out the other. "Wort's that for?" asked the cook, with pre- tended ignorance. "The dnff. of course," answered the boy. "You might a saved yourself the trouble o' bringing two Plake43. sonny." said Adam, smiling. "Don't play the fool, doctor. Give me my duff. Now, don't go for to fly off the 'andle so quick. Mister Masters." said the cook. "The whole of it is that there hain't no duff for you. It's bin stopped." "Our duff stopped!" echoed Masters, in his astonishment allowing hie chunk of mahogany-coloured beef to drop on deck. "Who stopped it, I'd like to know?" "Capbing's horders," replied the cook, shortly. "Captain be blowed!" snorted Masters. "It's all that beastly little steward, I'll bet. Well," he added, significantly, "I wouldn't like to be in his old boots. He'll be jolly glad to leave the ship without his pay day or anything else by the time we get to Calcutta. And yon, too, doctor, if you've got anything to do' with it." As Adam had a wholesome fear of the half- deck's enmity, he made no reply to the threat, aod JEaaters, growtiB^ audibly, went aft again. That afternoon the boys of the Bonito held an indignation meeting, followed by a council of war. Plum duff on Sunday for the apprentices was an institution aboard the Bonito. The captain had given it to them on the preceding voyage as a reward for smart servioe, and had made them a promise, which they looked upon as sacred, that it should be continued until they had served their time. It was the one thing now that gave them a standing a little above the forecastle; the one luxury they now had to look forward to. The loss, therefore, was a very serious matter. After a good deal of talking it was finally arranged that Tubby and Warburton should interview the captain. The master of the Bonito was flapping up and down the weather side of the poop in a loose East India duck Euit. a cork helmet, and bar-a feet. He was not in particularly pleasant mood, owing to his altercation with the I mate. Moreover, the wind was falling, a thing which in itself was enough to make any sailing skipper bad-tempered. Two turns he took in front of the boys without appearing to see them. He is waxy to-day." whispered Tubby. "I wish we had waited." Now, dont funk at the last minute, or I'll thump you," returned Warburton. Nevertheless even he, the boldest of boys, felt a little shaky, for the question of "grub" on a deep-water vessel is always a dangerous one to tackle. Well, what is it?" at last said the cap- tain, as he brought up glaring. If you please, sir." began Warburton, "the steward has stopped our duff, and we've come to see you about it. sir." Well," sa-id the captain again. "It isn't that we mind the duff so- much, sir," went on the wily Warburton. "Oh, no, sir," broke in Tubby, "we don't care about that, but we're afraid the steward has been lying about it." Been laying the blame on you. sir, in fact; at least that's the way it looks, t J. added TVarbarton. "cays I told him to, eh?" said the captain, relaxing his face a, trifle. What have you boys been up to with the steward, any- way?" "Nothing, sir, honestly," replied the inno- cent-looking Tubby. Yes, sir, he said it was your orders, and after what you told us last voyage we didn't believe it. Of course, if we had done any- thing to deserve it, sir-" "Oh, you boys! you boys," said the cap- tain, smiling. "You're saints, I know." Did you give him the order, sir?" per- sisted Warburton. No, my boy. I didn't," answered the captain. And you may go and tell him from me that if he takes upon himself the right to give any more orders I'll stop his pay. Thank you, sir," said the youngsters, as they jubilantly turned to leave the poop. The next minute, however, Warburton was back again. Excuse me. sir, but have you any objec- tion to our punching his head? he asked. None at all, if you can do it," answered the captain, struggling to control his face. A few minutes later the steward, wiping dishes in the pantry, received a stinging smack on the cheek from a wet slab-pellet. "Ow! he cried, clapping his hand to the spot and dropping the plate he held with a crash. Turning, he beheld Tubby standing in the doorway, scarcely an arm's length away, grinning at him in the most bare- faced manner. Daash thee, tha braazen yoong brat he exclaimed, as he darted at the boy. Garn, you fat-head said Tubby, deliberately planting another pellet in the steward's port eye before he dodged round the mizzen-mast. You couldn't catch a lame hen, you potwalloper As the angry man danced about the maet in a frantic endeavour to lay hold of his elusive tormentor. Tabby suddenly squared up to him, feinted, and slapped his face. Then the boy, ae though frightened, turned and fled through the open door; the steward, now filled with rage almost to exploding point, followed closely at his heels. No sooner had Biggs cleared the sill of the cabin entrance, however, than the doors were shut behind him, and his retreat out off by Masters, who, since the captain had sanc- tioned the fight, had appointed himself referee. Out on the sunny quarter-deck the little man opened his piggy eyes in astonishment. On the poop, looking down upon him severely, stood the captain and second mate; forward of the main mast stood a group of grinning forecaetiemen and idlers; the chief, in his pajamas was seated on the booby hatch. Masters had his ba.ck against the cabin doors, and before him, barefooted and stripped for action, their heads back and their fists up, stood the two younger apprentices. 'come on!" shouted the jubilant Tubby. "Come onechoed Warburton viciously. "Put up your dukes and fight fair, now, Biggs," added the referee. The steward paled. He looked round help- lessly for a moment; then putting his head down, he made a blind, bull-like rush at his antagonists. The boys parted and peppered him on both ears as he passed. Maddened and exasperated, the pantryman turned and came on again, whirling hie arms like a windmill. One of his wings, by chance, took Warburton under the chin and stretched him on the deck. In an instant, however, the boy was up again, attacking with the ferocity of a young tiger. Tubby backed him up with stiff, well-considered digs in the enemy's ribs. Between them they drove their opponent down to the lee bulwarks, where the fight became a very earnest affair; for the steward, feeling the pin-rail at his back, was forced to make a, stand. With his mouth wide open, his eyes like those of a hunted animal, and his nose staining the white deck, be fought for a while like a man. Twice Tubby went sprawling under his slugging blows. The persistent onslaughts of the boys, however, soon sapped his oourage. He turned his back upon them at last, and, covering his face with his arms, cried: "Stop 'em, cap'um, stop 'em. They're killing me. "Have you had enough?" panted War- burton. "Ay, go 'way from me. Ah'll give in." "Will you ever stop our duff again?" said Tubby. Ever stop our marmalade, or any- thing?" "Never. Ah sweer it," answered the steward, humbly. Come in amidships and apologise, then," and the two boys led their victim to the booby hatch. "Down on your knees!" commanded War- burton. The steward knelt stiffly before them, and amid the laughter of the assembled crew repeated after the youngster the following: Gentlemen of the 'aft-deck, I 'umbly begs your pardon for the orful lies Ah've told, and for my wicked, mean, contemptible hacts doorin' the passage. Ah'm deeply sorry for all Ah've done, an' promis to be'ave mysel' like a respectable stooward as long as Ah'm in this ship. An' Ah hacknowledge mysel' *9 hijut of the first water." "There, that's enough," said the mate from the poop. You boys go to your quarters now. And you, steward, swab up that blood of yours, and see that you do it properly." I'll tell you, fellows," said Masters, when the trio reached the half-deck, there's nothing like sticking up for your rights. We've made an example of the steward and gained the respect of the whole ship." A fat lot you did," sneered Tubby. Tubby, yoiyre an ungrateful little beast," said the senior apprentice. Didn't I think it all out, and plan everything?" Yes, but look at my eyes," remarked the, fat boy. And my nose," added Warburton. "Pooh! that's nothing," said Masters., When yomTye been to sea as long as I have, youl1 take such things ^philosophically."

BATHING FATALITIES LADY DROWNED IN ATTEMPT AT RESCUE. A sad bathing accident occurred on Monday morning at Fremington, near Barnstaple, resulting in the death of Lady Hilda, M'Neill and the twelve-year-old son of Mr. Pritchard, of Donnington Manor, Stow-on-the-Wold. It appears that Lady M'Neill and her husband, Mr. Charles Fitzroy Ponsonby M'Neill, the Master of the North Cotswold Foxhounds, had taken Fremington House for the sea son, and had several guests staying with them. The members of the house-party were in the habit of bathing either at Instow or in the River Taw at Fremington. On Monday morning Lady M'Neill, with Master Glen Pritchard and his sister, Miss May Pritchard, went to their bathing-tent on the banks of the Taw. When the deceased lady and boy entered the river the tide was on the ebb, and the child, venturing too far, got out of his depth, and was swept away by the current. Her ladyship tried to rescue him, but was also swept away, and both were drowned before assistance could be obtained. The child May Pritchard was the only witness of the accident. She immediately raised the alarm, and Mr. M'Neill rushed into the water and succeeded in bringing the boy's body ashore. Artificial respiration was tried by the members of the house-party, but with- out success. Meanwhile a search was being made for her ladyship, and about two hours afterwards her body was discovered about a mile below the scene of the fatality. Both bodies were removed to Fremington House, where an inquest will be held this afternoon. Lady M'Neill. who was only 53 years of age, was a daughter of the second Earl of Strad- broke, and resided at Kilsant House, Broad- way, near Evesham. At the time of the occurrence Mr. M'Neill was practising in the polo field. At first it was feared that the deceased lady's own boy was drowned also, but he was found crying piteously for his mother, whom he had seen disappear in the waves. BRIDE-ELECT DROWNED IN TH& ?lEDWAY. A sad drowning fatality occurred at Ailing- ton, a mile from Maidstone, on Monday after- noon. by which Miss Elise Riley, daughter of Engineer-captain Riley, of the Royal Naval Reserve, at Chatham, lost her life. She was a member of a party aboard a Government launch. While walking the narrow deck of the boat she was suddenly thrown overboard, and although efforts to save her were made by her fiance, Dr. C. Pye Smith, and others, who jumped overboard, she sank. She was a nurse at Guy's Hospital, where Dr. Smith is house surgeon. Her engagement to him was announced only a fortnight ago. A young man named Baldwin, son of the Vicar of Harston, Cambridge, was drowned whilst bathing at Tydd St. Mary, Lincoln- shire, on Monday. Two drowning fatalities were inquired into on Monday by the West Lancashire coroner. A boy of nine, whose parents reside in Liver- I pool, disappeared while bathing in the Mersey ten days ago, and the body was cast up on the shore near Formby. The only means of I identification were that the boy had two toes joined together on each foot. Another boy of ten while fishing in the Liverpool Canal fell in, and was drowned. THE DROWNING FATALITY AT PORT I TALBOT. Mr. Howel Cuthbertson (district coroner) held an inquest at Port Talbot on Monday into the sad circumstances of the drowning fatality to Alfred Tudor Williams, the nine-year-old son of Mrs. E. F. Williams, of 49, Con way-road, Cardiff, which occurred on Saturday evening. Captain Williams, uncle of the deceased, gave evidence of identification. Thomas Jones, ship's steward, deposed to seeing deceased on board shortly before the boat was found adrift andethe cap picked up. He did not see deceased get into the boat, or what happened afterwards. David Morecombe said that he, in com- pany with Police-sergeant Phillips (Docks), used the grappling irons, and recovered the body from near the bow of the steamship Ramsey. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental drowning." The body of the deceased was taken to Oar- diff in the afternoon for burial at the Car- diff Cemetery. LLANELLY DROWNING CASE. I An inquest was held at Park Church Vestry on Monday by Mr. W. Buckley Roderick (coroner) respecting the death of Dansie Stuart (16), son of Mr. Robert Stuart, Cowell- street, Llanelly, who was drowned in a pool while bathing, and had been found in the sand by the stranded ship Lazzaro. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death." WOMAN DROWNED AT TONGWYN- LAIS. A Mrs. Herbert, an aged woman, and to an extent a stranger to Tongwynlais, was found in the canal near Ivy House at that place on Monday night. A splash in the water was heard, and when the body was recovered life was extinct.

EDUCATION REVOL T.1 I COUNCILS AND MR. LLOYD- GEORGE'S POLICY. A correspondent informs us that, "What- ever may be thought. in England of Mr. Lloyd-George's threatened revolt against the Education Act, and particularly against the 'Coercion' Bill pa&-ed last week, there is no doubt that Wales takes the proposal seriously. The Welsh councils will, when the time comes, be quite prepared to take their marching orders from the organisation which Mr. Lloyd-George controls. Indeed, judging from what the 'Herald Cymracg' for to-day (Tuesday) says. members of Welsh council will be compelled to choose between carrying out in its entirety the new Welsh policy and retiring altogether from public life." In a possibly-inspired article our co,itempo,ary-a paper published in Mr. Lloyd-George's constituency—agrees that the plan of campaign involves sacri- fice. "Peopla in England make much of the sacrifice which our public men would have to make in resigning their posi- tion as managers or members of the educa- tion committee in order to make the Welsh protest effective. They would, however, sacri- fice far more if they declined to do so. They would sacrifice principle to begin with, and in sacrificing principle would also sacrifice all chance of retaining their present positions after the next elections." This is taken to mean that all candidates for public honours will be subjected to a test similar to the solemn league and cove- nant which was so much laughed at at the last county council elections. I MR. BRYNMOR JONES'S ATTITUDE. Mr. Brynmor Jones, the member of Parlia- ment for Swansea District, is already under suspicion. He evidently docs not like the policy adumbrated by Mr. Lloyd-Gtorge. Speaking at Newtown, he said he regretted exceedingly to see in the Western Mail" and the Times" an article purporting to be a, resume of the action Mr. Lloyd-George proposed to advise the county councils to take. He did not think that Mr. Lloyd- George inspired that article-he was certain that he did not; and he did not think that the policy sketched out there would ulti- mately prevail. As Mr. Brynmor Jones attempts to hide his disgust for the policy by implying his belief that the article was inaccurate, it may be as well to remind him that Mr. Lloyd-George himself in an interview with our London correspondent practically admitted that the article was accurate.

SOUTH WALES GOLF. LOCAL TEAMS FOR THE WELSH I CHAMPIONSHIP. Local golf was never in a more deadly dull state than during the past week, the only event which stirred any interest being the Radyr Club championship on Friday and Saturday. Holiday making is entirely responsible for the slump. The result of the final round at Radyr between Tom Jones and W. T. Davies has already been reported, and it need only be added that the winner—Mr. Davies-played on the top of his game, and showed better form all round than his rival. Mr. Jones's greatest weakness was his putting, while the winner excelled himself in his play on the green. Teams have been chosen by the Penarth, Porthcawl, and Radyr Clubs to compete for the silver bowl in the Welsh team champion- ship at Ashburnham on Thursday of next week. Porthcawl will be represented by the foIlowing :-Captain Wilkins, J. D. Thomas, L. Ludlow, E. U. David, S. Robinson, and W. S. Vivian. The Penarth players will probably be- James and John Hunter, G. Renwick, A. M. Ingledew, C H. Turnbull, and John Duncan, jun. Radyr: The Rev. \V. E. Shaw, Tom Jones. W. T. Davies. J. T. Phoenix, J. P. Edmunds, and J. H. Morgan. Reserves: A. J. Solomon, W. LI. Davioo, W. L. Yorath, and H Symonds. There were fifteen entries in the Wednesday Cup Competition at Penarth, and the follow- ing cards were returned: — Gross. H cap. Net. J. S. Dyas. 80 7 73 S.

The holidays are interfering a. good deal with the operations of the Newport Club, and matters are quiet on the Ladyhill course for the present. As Mr. Horace Lyne and Mr. Yorath did not play off the semi-final in the tournament, Mr. Theodore Harding became the winner. Another tournament will be started when the hoiidays are over. Mean- while, the hon. secretaries have arranged the following autumn fixtures:- Sept. 15.-Radyr v. Newport, at Newport. Sept. 29.-Glamorgan v. Newport, at Newport. Oct. 1.—Radyr v. Newport, at Radyr. Oct. 8.-Glamorgan v. Newport, at Penarth. Oot. 22.—Porthcawl v. Newport, at Newport. An interesting match took place on the Llanwrtyd Wells linkt3 recently between Mr. A. B.

The bogey of the course is 72. viz. 343454443545543534 Mr. Bowden went round in 77, but the archer (who was considered to hav holed out by piercing a card 4in. in diameter placed alcngeide the hole) went round in 68, winning the match by 5 up and 4 to play.

FOOTBALL. I THE SUGGESTION OF A CARDIFF I ATHLETIC CLUB. One of the first suggestions made when the new cricket and football pavilion was seen to be nearing completion was that it should be made the centre of an athletic club, at which all classes of sportsmen who cared to become members of the club might discuss their affairs. The suggestion is one which is certain to meet with general approval, and if acted upon would be one that would meet a long-felt want in the town. The subject will, probably, be brought before the joint committee of the Cardiff Football and Cricket Clubs at an early date, and it will be for that body to make its recommendations to the two clubs. The last day for receiving nominations for the committee of the Cardiff Football Club will be next Friday. All the members of the old committee have been nominated, together with Mr. Gwyn Nicholls and Mr. Charlie Kestell, the old Cardiff half-back. Cecil BiggB and Percy Bush have been nominated for the captaincy, and it is expected that there will be a keen fight for the position. CARDIFF HIBERNIANS CLUB.

A WOMAN'S LOANS. SINGULAR CASE HEARD AT THE ASSIZES. At the Glamorgan Assizes at Swansea on Monday an action for detinue was brought by Mrs. Florence Maria Saunders, wife of Richard Saunders, of Ystalyfera, against William Burchell Rees and Laura Swash. Mr. Abel Thomas, K.C., M.P., and Mr. Meagor (instructed by Messrs. Randell and Saundersi were for plaintiff, and Mr. S. T. Evans, K.C, M.P., and Mr. R. Vaughan Williams instructed by Messrs. Moeran and Words- worth) for the defeuce. The action was for the return of certain deeds and documents or their value, and an injunction restraining the defendant Rees from further using them, and the statement of claim set out that prior to January 10, 1896, the plaintiff (then Florence Maria Swash) at various dates advanced to the defendant Rees sums of money amounting to £ 1,000, and that on the dates mentioned defendant Rees executed a mortgage to the plaintiff of certain leasehold properties situate at Ystalyfera and at Bryn- aman to secure the re-payment and inte- rest at 5 per cent. per annum, Rees also handing plaintiff the deeds and documents of title relating to various properties. In February, 1896, plaintiff, at the request of Roes, handed the deeds and documents (f title, as well as the mortgage, to Messrs. R. and C. B. Jenkins, solicitors, of Swansea, and on the 20th of the same month she, at the request of Rees, joined with him in a mortgage of the same properties to Messrs. n. and C. B. Jenkins to secure the repayment of a sum of L56 and interest at 5 per cent. then advanced by them to Rees, the title deeds and documents remaining in the possession of the solicitors. On or about January 4, 1897, the defendant Rees, it was alleged by plain- tiff, without her knowledge or consent, paid to Messrs. R. and C. B. Jenkins the £56 and interest, and obtained from them all the deeds and documents that had been handed them by the plaintiff. It was not till January of this year that plaintiff obtained knowledge of this, and she thereupon demanded the return of the deeds from Rees, who refused to deliver them up. Recs by affi- davit in the action dated April 12, 1904, alleged that the deeds, other than the mortgage of January 10, 1896, were by him deposited with the defendant, Swash, in January, 1897, to secure to her re-payment of moneys lent and moneys he had agreed to secure to her, and that he believed the same were still with her. The defendant Swash, according to plaintiff's case, was aware of the mortgage of 1896, and that the amount secured remained unpaid, and had not lent Rees any money, and did not hold the deeds and documents as security as alleged, but at the request of Rees made an attempt to assist him in defeating the plaintiff's claim. The £ 1.000 and interest still remained unpaid, and besides the return of the documents plaintiff claimed £100 damages for their detention and the injunction referred to. Mr. Abel Thomas, in the course of his open- ing statement, said that bit by bit plaintiff lent money to Rees, or paid for things for defendants, and promissory notes accu- mulated to a very large amount. Meanwhile, in 1893, Rees had several shots at getting coal from various levels, and the Ynystawlla Col- liery, Brynaman, which was one of them, I turned out to be a success. At first, how- ever, there was a great deal of money becoming due to colliers, and plaintiff i advanced Rees considerable sums, and in 1896 the mortgage deed was executed in con- sideration of the plaintiff returning the pro- missory notes. The defence set up was, pro- ceeded counsel, as revealed by the affidavits of the illegitimate children of either plain- tiff or her sister, that plaintiff went down to the colliery, and got Edgar Rees to write out what he called a bill of sale upon the whole of the property, and that she said if this was not done in that way the creditors would come down upon the defendant Rees, seize the colliery, and all the work would be stopped. His own illegitimate son, bearing his own name, made an affidavit swearing that the plaintiff came to them down to the col- liery, and that he copied out a bill of sale for ClOO in favour of herself and another sister. The real question his lordship would have to try was whether the moneys were not advanced by the plaintiff. That the mortgage was made there could be no doubt. There was a, further allegation in the affida;vit that the £ 100 had been altered to £1.000, and the court would be told that plaintiff came down from Shields, where she was then living, to South Wales with something like terror in her heart. because of the crime she ha.d com- mitted over the alleged bill of sale, and got her son to go to the defendant Reee and ask for the return of the mortgage in order that she might destroy it, lest someone should get hold of it. His lordship would have to decide that extraordinary part of the case. The Judge: What was the crime? Fraud? Mr. Abel Thomas: Much further than that, because there is an allegation of forging I Ree3's name to the alleged bill of sale. Pro- ceeding, counsel, to illustrate the kind of man the defendant Rees was, said that when served with the writ he struck the solicitor's clerk with his fist. Then, he said, com- menced those astounding affidavits which his lordship would find came flooding in from the illegitimate children and from Rees him- self denying practically all that plaintiff ha-d said. Counsel concluded by submitting that the defence was a wretched and abominable one, got up by perjury and forgery, and that plaintiff was entitled to succeed on the docu- ments. Plaintiff was called, and said when she went in 1875 to live with Rees and her sister she did not know then that the two were not married, as her sister was called Mrs. Rees. In cross-examination, she said she married about three years ago. She admitted she got into monetary difficulties, and, asked why if she thought the deeds of the property were hers she did not then apply for them, she replied "Because Mr. Rees had threatened my life. He had eaid that if I came back he would blow my brains out." Counsel put a letter to plaintiff in which she said, "For God's sake eend me £ 7 by return of post or by wire. I have no boots on my feet," but she still denied that at that time she had not a penny in the world.. After the hearing of evidence, Mr. Vaughan Williams called Dr. James Lewis, of Ystalyfera, who said plaintiff came to see him for medical advioe. She told him she was a little distressed because she had signed a document for Mr. Rees and was too ill too know what it contained. Plaintiff was t not in any way delirious or mentally c David Davies, a next-door neighbour to plaintiff, said on Mav 1 plaintiff told him to fetch Rees, as she wanted to tell him she was very sorry for what she had done and she forgave him all. Subsequently Rees came, and they were all merry because everything was made up. He understood it had been agreed that the present action should stop. He subsequently saw a document being written by several witnesses. Mrs. Saunders signed it, and said, "I euppoee its all right." He did not hear what was in it. Similar evidence having been given by other witnesses, the further hearing was adjourned till to-day (Tuesday).

ACLAND- I ALLEN'S XI. t A match had been arranged to be played on the CO bridge Ground on Monday between the Glamorgan Gypsies and the Tredegar Hunt, but on Saturday the Hunt notified that they were unable to raise a team, and, consequently, a game was arranged between two scratch teams. When the match opened the Wicket, after the heavy rain during the night, was very slow, and after luncliit had dried somewhat and had become more difficult. Mr. Niclioil's team batted first, and J H Brain and H. Moore-Gwyn went first to the /ckct. Moore-Gwyn was caught by W. H. Drain oif David after making a steady 25, and with the score at 47. J. II. Brain batted patiently, and compiled 58. which included six 4'8, before he was bowted by GUbert- son. J. D. Moore-Gwyn also succeeded in passing the half ccrtiirv. and knocked up 56, when his innings, which included a large number of singles, closed. After lunch the batsmen gave the txwiers less trouble, ani, although for the loss of four wic'tets the score was 183, it wae only increased by eight runs for the loss of two mon- wicket*. After tho Rev. Mr, Nicholl's departure R. M. D. Nicholl and W. H. WaiSoil made a good stand. Watson went in for ha.rd hitting, and very soon knocked up 43, which included a 6 and ?vp 4', He was out at 252. Nicholl batted slowly and steadily for 29. C. G. Edmunds, who suceeedpd Watson. was dismissed without addition to the total, but the ninth wicket took the score to 285. The innings closed soon afterwards for 292. Mr. Acland-Allen's XI. made a bad start, losing W. O. Pritchard for 11. Then C. Pritchard and Gilbertson made a stand, and took the score to 54 before the former was bowled by Watson. GUbertson when he had made 23 left to catch a train, and E. U. David came to the wickets to partner W. H. Brain.
