The leagues have a fine opportunity of proving their real strength not cniy in front but at the rear of the scrum. The league three-quarter line, in my opinion, ia of international class, and if they I are well sewed by Harvey :tnd Hiilman we shall see a display of football worthy of the reputations of these players.

Detective in Hiding. EARLY MORNING SCENE IN WOOD STREET. An incident in Wood-i-eit, Cardiff, in the early hours of yesterday morning was related at Cardiff Police-court to-day. when Morris Shannon, 22, i d Denis F e i n. twenty, were charged with attempting to steal from the person of Benjamin Bavieis. The prisoners ware also charged for that, being reputed thieves, they loitered in Wood- street for the purpose of committirg a felony on the morning of.the 13th ef April. Th? Prosecutor, who is a communion agent, said he was in Wood-street about one o'clock on Friday morning. The prisoners c-,i.in(-- to him and asked for the loan of six- pence to buy a .1-anon cask of beer. Alderman E. Thomas: Did you give it in fear of them?—Well, I wanted to get away. I had a, drop, you see. sir. •Alderman Thomas; Did you give this as a matter of good fellowship or to got rid of them ?—I v. a-nted to get off. It was getting late. Witness added t.ha.t he tcld th-em that he could not give them any more money, | and 'they then put their bauds in his pocket. • He ra.n away and they followed. One of prisoners caught him by the rt-k and the other B'truek hem. They placed their bands in his pockets, and he believed he had lost a- portion oi 12s. he had in his possession. He bcid them un?.il the arrived of Eetective- ,sergeant. Dicks. Dayid Harrington corroborated the main portion of the prosecutor's t-tery. He declared that Shannon struck Davies, and whilst Keohan held llim by the neck Shannon placed his hand in Pavies's pocket. He called for help, and Detective Dicks came to the prosecutor's assistance. Detectivc-sergcaut Dicks said he had the prisoners under observation ior some time. He hid near the church, and hearing a scuffle ran out and saw the prisoners with Davies. Keo-hau had his arms around the prosecutor's neck to stifle any noise. Shannon luai his hand in Davics's pocket. He took I li,?-i h-Ind it the two prisoners into custody. Keohan then said they had only asked Davies for sixpence towards the payment of a four and a half gallon cask of beer. On the way to !ho police-station Shannon placcd his left hand in his pocket, and appeared to be searching for something. When searched witness found one penny on Keohan. There was no money in Shannon's pockets. The prisoners were committed for trial at tho next assizes for th" county.

Lost on the River Bank BURIED UP TO THE NECK IN MUD j An elderly woman dwelling in the Terries district, Paris, has just had a most extra- ordinary experience, and she now lies in the Bcaujou hospital more dead than alive— indeed, she is almost in a state of delirium produced by terror. Her escape (writes the Paris correspondent of the Daily Tele- graph ") has been marvellous, and is due rather to happy chance than to anything else, as but for the fact that two residents at Courbevoie happened to be in her neigh- bourhood at the early hour of five in the morning she must inevitably have perished in an awful manner, sinking in the mud of the Seine, in which she had become engulfed until only her neck and head were visible above it. The two men who saved the poor woman were on their way to their daily toil, when they heard groans emanating from the wet soil below the quay along which they were wa-lking. They hurried to the bauk. and after looking about them for a while they caught sight of a haggard face, whence low cries proceeded. Several policemen were passing at the time, and they assisted in the work of rescue. Spades and ropes were called into requisition, but it took upwards of half an hoar to free the poor creature from the mud into which she had sunk. A litter was brought, ard she was conveyed to the nearest relief station, where she was carefully tended, and at last she had re- gained sufficient strength to give an account of her awful adventure. She had started alone for Courbevoie on the previous even- ing, and when she had reached the river hank had lost her way in the darkness, which I had in the meanwhile come on. The more she tried to get back on to the USUÇLl Dath the worse had her position becomc. In the course of her wanderings she plunged right into the thick mud. and every effort to return to firm ground proved vain. From eight o'clock that evening until five on the following morning she had graduaUy sunk lower and lower, with a lingering death before her all the time.

Young Mother's Cilime I I INTEREST AROUSED IN CARDIFF. I Some interest has been aroused in Cardiff I by the news of tbe murder of a child at Isle- wo-th by a young mother (who then com- mitted 8ucide) owing to the similarity of the ( name of the husband (Camillo Fontana) to that of an Italian fan!ily who were residents of Carditf some six or seven years ago. A man named Camillo Fontana formerly lived in the town, and was woll-kncwn by his fellow-countrymen of the Italian colony in the city. Tho father of Camillo came to Cardiff from. Bordeaux, and worked as a sculptor off Castle-road. He was very skilful at his work. and was assisted in business by Camiilo. Fontana, senior, used to lodge with Mr. Burinetti, boarding-house-keeper, 126, I Bute-road. The two left for Paris, where the elder Fontana, died some five or six years ago. Camillo when in Cardiff was marr ied.
