To-Day's Short Story. FOR CORA'S SAKE. I North Weptrrn Rowl. Cottonport. Jnst back from Klondike. Done well. await iaatch a.nd return with you. BOB. Th-ua read aloud Tom Barring-ton from that paper of unmistakable hue which we recognise at a glance as a telegram. "Think of that! Bob back. lie must have seen to-morrow 3 teams in the papers. Barringtoin in goal, eh ? what a strange coincidence! And 'done wellthat means nuggets!" "Lucky fellow! He goes off in a fit of desperation, and tries to lose himself in the wild North W(-õot, a.nd stumbles acroes a fortune, while I stay at home, and a-m positively dependent upon a stray goal, rti''>re or leEs, to-morrow." cried Tom, crump- ling the telegram in nis hands. Would you change places with him, Tom?" asked the young wife—the only other person in the roo,m-with a flush on her pale cheeks and a depth of meaning in her tone which her husband knew well how to interpret. Tom's sudden and not r.nnaturai jealousy vanished as quickly as it arose, and, taking his wife's thin hand tenderly, he said, looking into her eyes: "Do you regret, now you know what might have been?" Hor OOlly was (l, deepecned glow in her eyes, which met her hus-band's gaze unflinchingly, and a gentle pressure of the big, brown bMi<l that was noted for fisting a bail atlmost as tar a-s could kick it, and Tom gathered his little one- year wife into his arms, and, kis&ing her fondly, whimpered in her ear: And you you'd rather a goal-keeper than a millionaire? W ell! Well!—and I-I would rather have my little Cora than all the gold of Klondike—snd I'm sorry for poor old Bob, for. if he has brought home a ship- load of gold, he has brought. home a law—-an empty .heart." Oh," cried Cora, nestling closer, hell snreiy have got over by this time!" "No, no! that's not Bob. He'll never forget, worse luck! "Isn't it strange—this love? Here are twin brothers, o,s like a-i two peas, foolishly in love with the same girl, and s.he just loves the one—this one—with all her hoort. o,nd doesn't love the other a bit, in that way, though she thinks him one of the best and truest men in the it strange ?" "Strange eiwrugh.! Thp-cciany as the rejected one was always a more taking sort than his brother." "No fishing, sir! Now help me an to the conch, thero's a dear. You'll hurry back from Cottonport to-morrow, won't you? I'm a bit frightened at being left." Hurry back? Won't I, just—if I go." "Go? You must go, Tom. It's very unlikely that Milligram will play in goal again, and if you come off to-morrow—and you will—you are certain of the place, and think what that means to us just now." "Think of it. darling? • Since the engineers' war commenced I've thought of it night a.nd day." Forgive me. love, I know you have, and nearly worried yourself to death obout it." No, no. I'm all right, my lass. I &hall go, of course, for your sake aa well as my own, if you are well and Gheerful." But these little family matters ha.ve a way of arranging themselves and dis- arranging1 everything else, and when Tom Harrington, t.he now goal-keeper from the neigbouring village of Riverside, whom the big Eastport League club were giving a trial, should have been joining the train with the of the team for Cottonport, he was holding his wife's hand ajxl speaking tender words to her, while he lite-ned anxiously for the sound of wheels outside which should announce the arrival of the doctor. "You've missed your train?" whispered the pale lips. Yes, darlirng." How—how will they manage without Dant worry, dear." Thus admonished, she lay back upon the bed and closed her eyes. Then suddenly opening them, she said: "You must keep goal: It's -the match of t.he season. They'll never forgive you if they drop from their place at the top of the table." It can't be helped, dear. Let it rest." "There's Bob, ask him-for my sake—to otake your place. "Bob? Keep goal for me?" Yes, personate you—for my sake. He'll not disgrace us." The sound of wheel3 and a double knock announced thearrhal of the doctor,, and, close upon his heels, a good, motherly froul of a nurse—and Tom Wi1" frco. Cottonport was out of the question. The game would be half through when he arrived, even if he were now at Ko.-tport, four miles away, stepping irato the train. His wife's! suggestion—was it feasible? Bob could koop i goal, there was no doubt about that but i the Cottonport team were fighting, as it i were, fcr dear life, to escape the ignominious t-Mt matc-he*, ad some of their forwards would not stick at a trifle. On the other hand, it was of the ntmost I importance to the status and reputation of Torn Barrington that his citadel should kept intact. The club found itself, for the1 first ticne, at the top of the League table, and the man who could keep it there was I a made man. Fortune had not been too kind to Tom, except that it had senz him a wife in a million, but that fact alone was an, all-sufficient reason for a bold stroke. "I'll do it!" muttered Tom, as a muffled wail of anguish wa-s borne from above;! 111 do it, and risk it "—and off he rushed to the posit-office and despatched the fol- lowing wire: CoTa ill. Personate me between sticks. far her sake, she says. Reply.—TOM. Anxiously he waited. Now that be had done it he was <!&<■'irouis thut it s<hc<u>l'dl succeed. What if his brother were not at his hotel? He- .might have gone out, n.ot to return until he had seen the match. Wouldn't he marvel, in tha.t case, when the Eastport team turned out to do battle with only ten mem. and had to make shift wit-lj one of their number in goal? The reply is hero, sir," paid the telegraph girl, and Tom, almost rudely, snatched from her hand and read: Will do it--for Cora'3 sake—B0(B. Bob Harrington, late of Dawson City. Klondike—that gold-field on an ice-field- had finished his toast and coffee two hours ago, but had only turned his chair towards ihe fire in his private room at the North j ■Western, Cottonport, and had sat gazing, into the embers ever sines.. He had returned to the old country rich beyond the dreams of avarice. Fifteen months before he was in the same cit y but. not in the same hotel, by any means—with a steerage ticket for Now York. He had a heavy heart and a light pocket then. Both were heavy now. He had heard, while still within the bounds of civilisation, of the marriage of. his brother Tom to Cora Campbell, and. Heaven knows, did not begrudge his brother his happiness, but he knew that he himself mmsit feel a lifelong lack. There had never been any op-en rivalry between the brothers. Cora know. but Tom dad not until she had promised to be his wife, that Bob Barrington had bestowed his love where it oould not be requited. Bob and Tom had one painful interview, during which the former broke down and Sobbed as only a man does when he is broken-hearted, and was" comforted m a lame, hopefcw style by hie affectionate rival, who, poor fellow, saw no way out of the Tmr?s?Th<-?

I can do it, he. muttered, as he hastened to luncheon, and no one need be the wiser." Thre was consternation in the East port ca.cp when, at the last moment, the new goal-keeper did not arive. Nothing remained but to proceed to Cot.tonport without him; and thus it was that, with heavy hearts but light steps, ten men only bo- uKled upon the field, in the famous colours of the Eastport team. Scaxoe,ly had they left the dressdng- Toom, when a atranger entered and announced himself to the attendant as Barring ton, the new Eastport goalkeeper— was there a spare rig-out, as. in his haste, he had neglected to bring his own ? No sooner asked for than supplied!—and the cheer that greeted the eleventh and ■missinar man was the greatest of all, for it was heartily joined by his elated comrades, who could scarcely believe their eyes. However. there was no time for MADAME LNA HILL, Who appeor in the Garl Rosa Company in the New Theatre, Cardiff, next week. [Photo, Jenkins, Cardiff. questioning, a.nd BQrriiigton-Bab of that ilk—volunteered no information, but planted himself between the uprights, and fell to woademg how a man two years o-ut of practice would shape. The whittle sounded, a^d Bob soon had a ta.:vte of the Cottoniport quality, for the game had hardly commenced when the ball ca.me sailing in from a, well-directed lateral shot, and, taking the under side of the crossbar, would have been in the net in a twinkling had not the gold-digger caught it on the end of his fingers, and ju-st tipped it over. Cries of Coriier corner!" arose, m,ingled with cheers, and 'a earner-kick it w:az. All the players clustered about the goal- mouth, and awaited the ball, ready with head or foot to help it through or keep it out. The tension on Bob's nerves was terrible. He had faced the icyterronl of the Chilooot Pass and the rigours of a winter on the Yukon with much greater equamimity. Here it comes 1 And, instantly, right into the midst of the posse drops the ball, and cannons from head to head, and from toe to toe, in the wiild struggle for the mastery, and a rapturous cheer bursts from the throng as the ball, despite the efforts of the opposing eleven, shoots into the net, and .the first goal falls to Cottonport. But, ftay. Why does the goalkeeper wave his a..nns in frantic pa-,atetA, and the referee make his way among the excited playere and, after some altercation, point impera- tively in front of the goa.l? "A goal kick!" "No goal!" ory the elated and the depressed alike, and it soon transpires tha;t Hattock, the Cotiton- port centre-forward, a man of unsavoury reputation for shady tactics, deliberately, in the melee, fisted" the ball through the goal. Away rushes the field to be ready for the ) kick-off. Hattock sends an evil look at the' new goalkeeper, his accuser, of which that ,gentleman takes no heed, but, with a mighty kiok, sends the ball hurtling into the centre of the fray. Thus, ding-dong goea the game, this w-ay a.nd that—Bob now kicking, smiting, breasting out shots, now flapping his arms to warm his nngera, cold after ten minutes' respite, while nis vis-a-vis is catching it hot. And thus half time comes with ho.nour-s -ea-y no goals. The interval was a trying time for Bob. He buried himself, washing end rubbing down, and managed to keep himself fairly II in the background. The eager questions of hi3 now comrades he answered in mono- syllables; but, as no one seemed to euspeot hi? identity, he became more at ease. The ends were changed, and so was the state of the game. Five minutes had not elaipsed ere Eastport had notched two goals. Not without a struggle, however, would CottODlpart yield, and Bob found the next miarter of an hour the warmest in. his experience; but, through it all, with every nerve on the -retch, and every sinew taut, came like a refrain from another life, For Cora's saka—for Cora's sake," and seemed to give him superhuman energy. so that he kept his fortress intact. To the other end fared the fight, and, Y)ot to be denied. Eastport returned again end again to the attack, relief only coming with the addition of a third goal. Most of the Cottonport men accepted the inevitable, while yet fighting gamely on, ttUt one maji there waj to whom Bob's success was gall and wormwood. This was Hattock, the cent.re. There was a gleam in his eyes, and a -tin-g in his charges, which told of viciousness, and when the ball come dropping insidiously towards Bob's goal, Hattock sprang upon him with all his weight, and felled him heavily, his head, striking the corner of the goal-peat. Blood etii-ea.med faith, and he was borne sense- less to the dressing-room. The room was cleared. The doctor administered restoratives, but his face was very grave. Bob opened his eyes and muttered: Cora-—Tom—it's cold—"Ugh! Klondikeb a cold country!" Then a gleam of intelligence come and a faint smile illuminated his pale features. The doctor bent over him once more, and this time his face put on a more hopeful look. With care I think he may pull1 through," said he; his coneititwtion will sa\e liiim." A'id so it did. Bob's magnificent physique kept death from scoring a goal at his expense. The Cottonport Cluh, to its lasting honour, not content with dis.mis.sing Hattock, paid £ 500 compensation. Bob maintained, as he was only a substitute, that this money rightly belonged to Tosn, end insisted upon his acceptance of it, threatening, if a word of PNYteSt were raised, to return forthwith to Klondike.

CARDIFF CYMMRODORION
CARDIFF CYMMRODORION Professor R. C. Bosanquet, of Laverpool University, was the lecturer at the opening meeting of the winter session of the Oardiff Cymmrodorion Society, held at the St. John's School, yueen-street, on Friday evening. Alderman Robert Hughes presided over a very large audience, who listened intently to the illustrated lecture on Wales During the Roman Occupation." Pro- fessor Bosanquet is a member of the recently appointed Royal Commiasion on Ancient Monuments in Wales, and his fame as an arcliseologist is world-wide. During his most instructive descriptions of the Roman oamps shown on the screen the Professor said that at Caerleon Welshmen had a unique chance to find out what a Roman legionary fortress in Wales was like. At York and Chester only a few fragments cOuld be recovered, because the &ites had been built over, but at Caerleon there were whole fields which could be excavated, and it was his duty to pay a tribute to the Monmouthshire and Caerleon Archaeological Association for the work it had already done through the kindness of Sir Arthur Mackworth. If it was possible to reach one of the central administrative buildings in the Oaerleon camp, they might hope for important finds. (Hear, hear.) The next lecture will be on Cardiganshire a-nd its leaders in education, &c., by Mr. J. Austin Jenkins, next Friday week. NEW CYMMRODORION SOCIETY. Mr. Huw J. Hiiws, of Cardiff, was the lec- turer at the opening meeting of the new society, Cymmrodorion y Faenor, serving the district of Pontsarn and Pontstacyll.

BILLIARDS. I THE STROKES OF THE GAME. I (COPYRIGHT). I [By RISO LEVI ] I 3.-CANNONS TO LEAVE AN IN-0FF. | Dia-grarm 538 shows another p(wition-a .modifloation of tihe Ofrbe illii;sti-ated on Driagram 532 (given two weeks o,o)-,froin whioh, by means of a well-played cannon, .position for an in-off from the white may be left for the next stroke. This stroke, to leave the white in positiom for an in-off, whilst not exactly a difficult one for any fa.ir player, is one that. requires good handling, for not only must the strength be well eaAised but the cue ball's conttvot with the object wihite must also be very correct, otherwise position will be lost. For example, DIAGRAM 538.—A cannon off the cushion I getting full on to thtl wfeite to leave an in-off. should (the cize ball as it leave? the cushion I "take tile object white rather ithindy on the side wthicJi is war the cushion, iii-tead of full or nearly full, position for an in-off will not be left. If, on Abe other hand, the cue ball as it leaves the cushion drops gerntly a.nd full or nearly full on to the object white position for -an in-off will be left to contiinne with. As a rule, the m-off w.ill be a arrow. Diagawm 539 shows a position which is typical of many others that occur at tihe top of tth-e table. The oaim<m is a simple ba-Ll-to-bad.! itrcike, but the only leave to play for is position for an dn-off from the w-hite. In order to gctt this position, very accurate con-t wirt?h the object white is necessary. When tihe ?troke M6 been well played—and gentle etren?th is a sine qua. non-the object ball travels more or less in the I direction indicated by the intersected lime, I DIAGRAM 539.-A gentle ball-to-ball oamvon getting nearly full on ft-o the white to leave an in-off. stopping short of the siide oashioai, And the c'ue baill, tra^elli.nig only a short daetamoe after its contact with the object, white, comes to rest in a good position from which to play an in-off from the white. Diagram 540 shows a. position very similar to the one shown on Diagram 539, but instefvd of the camnon being an ordinary half-ball cannon it is here quite a. thin caranon. The stroke is. however, cfuite an easy one owing to the cue ball being so n-r the arst object ball a.nd owing also to tihe Pewrid object ball being close at hand. 'Me mrmon should be played in al similar manner to the one illustrated on Diagram 539, that is to e?y the cue ball abcuM f?ll genuy on to the object white and the contact ehould be swoh that the object wibite travels in the direction of the intersected line, stoppirig ah art of the cushion. DIAGRAM 540.-A gentle thin ball-to-ball cannon getting full on to the white to leave an in-off. When ?he stroke is played in <tMa manmer, I the oue ball will only travel a ehort dis- ta-nce owing to its f-ulli.«h contact with the white and will consequently come to rest in good position for an in-off from the white. In playing this thin cannon, to leave an in-off from the white, it should not be forgotten that the thin contact with the red ball takes very little iptlce out of the cue bat!, consequently still le«s strength ohould be used th-in when playing the half- ball-.or approximately haJf-ball—cannon shown on Diagram 539. The })CJ6itior;¡s .-i!:own <).n Diagrams 539 and 540 occur more freqivently at the top of the table than a-nyvvherc olse, but t,heyd variations of them—may occur in relation to the b?ulk cu??don and a baulk pocket, or in relation to any of the four side cushions and a corner pocket, ju?t as they occur in relation to t.he top cushion and %? corner pocket. When the positions are in relation to the baulk cushion and a ba ulk I pocket—that is to say when in playing the cannon the cue ball has to travel across the table in the Slaime way as in Diagrams 539 aaid 540, the va,nncon-un-lees a. very thin one —should be played exactly as already de.s- cribed, .for the stroke which leaves position j for an in-off from t.he white also sends the red ball out of bwulk, unices the c-jintaet with tho red is too thin to cause this ball to trai-el far enough to cross the Ixiulk lire. When the cannon to leave an in-off from; .the white is such a thin one that playing I it means leaving the red in balulk another! method of -play rnu.-t be r",s"r>td"to in order to retain the object ball? in good position,. and examples of such strokes will be given in a later chapter. When tihe position to leave an in-off from the white is similar to those shown on Diagrams 539 and 540 except that it is in relation to a side eu-hion—that is to say i when in pdaying the cannon the cue bail I has to travel lengthways of the instead of across the table-tihe oorreot kind of stroke depends to a very great extent j upon whether a cannon -Played to leave an i in-off would lonve--as t-h-e result of a well- j played stroke—an in-off into a top pocket or' into a baulk pochet. When the in-off from the white would be into a top pocket the cannon to !<?<ave this in-off is the correct stroke to play. When the in-off from the white would he into a. ba-ulk pocket it all depends as to whether or not the cannon1 would send the red out of ba-ulk. When the position is such that the cannon leaves the white well situated for a saljeequi'n.t in-off, also setnd6 the red out of baulk, this cannon is bbe correct stroke to play. When, how- ever, the position is snich that the cannon which will leave .position for a subsequent in-off from the white will not or may not- for sometimes the position is such that it is a, very close thing as to whether the red will or will not travel out of ba-ulk as the result of a stroke of correct strength in relation to the object white—send the red over the line, then another method of play -reference too which will be made in a later chapter—must be adopted in order to retain position.

STRENGTH OF THE NAVY
STRENGTH OF THE NAVY Mr. HegirsaM M'Kenna (First- InI'd of the Admiralty) delivered an address in St. Andrew's-hall, Glasgow, on Friday night on the British N-^vy. He sa.id the aim of the British Admiralty was, and always should be, to obtain the maximum of naval power from the expenditure of the resources at their disposal. The opinion that too much stress was laid on material, to the neglect of the Navy's personnel and of the art of war, had no solid foundation. Whatever estimate might be made of the merits of the Navy's personnel, it could not be subjected to positive procf to-day, as the only final and unanswerable test of a sailor's qualities was his behaviour in actual war. Throughout Natu re organs became atrophied from disuse, and what reason had they to suppose th-a-t the Navy, whose prime function was war, should not, during the long years of peace, have lost its gghting efficiency? It might be said of the Navy, however, that it was always on active service, and they had constant evidences of the presence of mind, discipline, daring, and resource -under con- ditions which were not very dissimilar from those of war. The time had long since passed when the function otf t-he Navy was one of mere defence of our shores from iThvasion or of keeping clear the narrow seas. The growth of our Colonial empire had been made possitble only by the predominance of the British Fleet. Another duty of the Navy, which every year became more importamt for the teeming population of our island, wa.s the protection of ouT colmmeree and oi our food supplies. An open seaway was an absolute condition of the life of our people. Our Isavy must be strong enough to meet a.ny foe or reasonable proba.ble combination of foes. The worst possible policy woaild be for UIS to fall behind in our na.val equipment, but the next worst policy would be to need- lessly imake the pace in expenditure on armaments. It would be the height of unwisdom for us to invite foreign nations to increase their expenditure by a.ny uncalled- for parade of our own o-verwhelming strength. Suffice it for us that we had. and meant, to have, a Navy strong enough for absolute seourity. A suffragette interrupted Mr. M'Kenna at the outset, but she was promptly ejected.
GRAND OPERA AT CARDIFF
GRAND OPERA AT CARDIFF A welcome return visit of the Royal Carl Hosa Opera Company will be paid to the Car- diff New Theatre next week, and the public of South Wales will, no doubt, take full advantage of the opportunity of hearing and seeing a. series of fine musical and spectacu- lar productions under most favourable condi- tions. A well-selected repertoire opens on Monday with Carmen," and on successive evenimgs-with "Tannhauser" at Saturday's ma-tinee-the famous company present Fallot," Cavalleria Bustioa.na" and Pag- liaooi," "Maritant," Don Giovanni," and "II Trovatore." It will thus be seen that the operas most popularly favoured are on the list, while a capital a,rray of principals includes Madame Ina Hill, whom Cardiff now claims ae a citizen. It will be remembered teat on her last visit Madame Hill piayed for the first time in Cardiff the important role of Marg-uerite in Faust," with conspicuous success, and she subsequently filled the same part at Covent Garden, to the delight of the London critics. No one can be said to have been more successful in climbing the ladder of f,ame in grand opera than Madame Hill, who in the short space of three seasons has played a majority of the lcadinlg roles in the many operas produced by the Carl Rosa Company. During her next week's visit to Cardiff Madame Hill will Play on Monday "Michaela" ("Carmen"). "Zerlina" ("Don Giovanni") on Friday, and, for the first time, "Leonora" ("II Trovatore") on Satur- day evening. The latter, always a popular opera, will, undoubtedly, prove to be one of the week's gems. Mention should also be made of Miss Doris Woodall, who has estab- lished her position as a stage favourite.
"AN ILLUSTRIOUS BODY." I
"AN ILLUSTRIOUS BODY." In delivering the inaugural address before the Cardiff and Diistriot Educational Society at the Girls' Intermediate School on Friday evening, Alderman Lewis Morgan said he was not quite sure that the education autho- rities were not overdoing things in the large niumber of subjects taught at the schools. If he had known three years ago what the responsibilities of chairman of the education comimittee were, he greatly feared he would not have had the pluck to accept that office. Looking at it froan a municipal point of view, he found a large number of things which had grown round and about and become part of the education work of the city. They bad an excelleirnt pupil teacher centre, but whether it would remain for any length of time was a matter for that illustrious body tile Board of Education, which changed its mind about once in every three months. Referring to the feeding of hungry school-children, Alderman Lewis Morgan said if the Act was to be carried out in its entirety it would call for ooriout3 a,t-te-lition on the pa-rt of local education authorities. With regard to the suggested National Council of Education, he thought it would be extremely beneficial for Wales, and he saw no reason why they should not have the same treatment as was meted out to Scotland and Ireland.

"Shared Dog's Scraps'I rt…
"Shared Dog's Scraps'I rt I I AMAZING CRUELTY CHARGE Vicar and Wife Summoned A case of absorbing interest was opened at Barmouth Polioc-court on Friday, when the Rev. Joseph Malet Lambert, canon of York Minster and a well-known Hull vicar, and his wife, Rose Lambert, appeared to a summons taken out by the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children charging them that they, having the custody of 2viary Elizabeth Inman, a child of ten, did ill-treat and neglect her in a manner likely to cause her unnecessary suffering and injury to health. Mr. Clarke Hall prosecuted on behalf of the society,, and Mr. Ellis Jones- Griffith, M.P., defended. The case of Mrs. Lambert was taken first, a-nd she elected for the case to go before a jury, though Mr. Ellis-Griffith, counsel for the defence, said he hoped there would be an acquittal. Mr. Hall at the outset pointed out that the child was not defendants' own, but was taken into the home of the defendants' some years ago, and she had since lived with them at Hull, coining to Barmouth with them on July 20. A new cook entered the service of defendants, and she noticed at once that the child, Mary Inman, appeared to be very pale and emaciated, to be much overworked, and also to be very thin and delicate. The child up to that time was in the habit of sleeping with two servants in an attic, the servants having each a bed to lie in, and the child a. mattress placed in the same room with tnem. VIV hile the servants rose at ;¡..JU, me child was allowed to remain in bed till eight, when she was called to attend to the defen- dants' own child, not being given her break- fast, however, until ten o'clock. One of tile allegations against the defendants was that this child had been improperly fed for break- fast. Pla.tes that had been used in the dining-rooms were scraped of whatever con- tents that might happen to be on them, and- placed in an enamel tin, being given to the child in that condition, and tea leaves were taken out of the teapot, put into a,nother tin, and water poured over them. This con- stituted the child's breakfast, and what rema,ined of the mixture was served up for her tea. For dinner the child was given the scrapings of the plates collected from the dinner plates of the previous day, these being- put into a tin, and a portion, served to the dog and the rest given to the child. These scrapings, apart from their being mixed up together, were unquestionably unfit for food at all. The child would tell them that on several o-ceasions she had to pick the J maggots out from the tin of food given her. That, a,coording to the cook, was the way in ] which the child was fed, the tin of food being I generally served to her in the hall. EMACIATED AND EXTREMELY ILL. Dr. Dingle, of Barmouth, deposed that he •was in attendance on defendant's son, and was beseeohed by the nurse to visit Mary Inman. She was extremely ill, very much emaciated, and had a frightened expression. The akin wa.s dry a.nd harsh, resembling parchment. The pulse was extremely feeble. Ellen Gilmartin, cook, said the child did the housework, cleaned the silver, and did her own oowing and mending. She slept on a mattress in the attic, where two other servants were. Elizabeth Hanna,h Jukes, a trained nurse, said that the food given to Mary Inman was unfit for consumption. Mary E-liziabeth Inman, the child in question, said if she did not work properly she was whipped or shut up in a room. Defendant beat her with her st-ick and with a poker, besides hitting her with her hand. Maggots were in her dinner croce or twice. Wh-en Mr. Arthur was ill she was confined in a basement room while Dr. Dingle was in the room. Defendant said the child was a da-ugh-ter of a charwoman. Mrs. Lambert was committed to the assizes for trial. I

JEWELLER'S SHOP BURGLED AT SWANSEA. Mr. M. Foner, jeweller, High-street Arcade, Swansea, found on arriving at his shop on Friday morning that one of the panels of of the front door had been damaged, and that, apparently, during the night an entrance had been effected by these means into his shop. On overhauling his stock he found that ten watches and several rings-good,s amounting in value to about ?4—were missing. The aperture by which the thief entered was only 16in. by 9in., and it seems probable that a child or some I undersized adult had been concerned in the robbery. Xo arrest has been made.
