TO-DAY'S SHORT STORY.] A Yachting…
TO-DAY'S SHORT STORY.] A Yachting Romance. [ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.] It was a. inmmer morndnsr when Lonsdale, a youthful yachtsman. walked down the YSLiley of a tidal river among the hills of Wales. Two damsels from the hotel three miles away walked with him, daintily attired in the smartest of sammer frocks, lphich implied considerable ignorance of the Kestrel's g-oneral state of cleanliness. They were cousins of the owner, who, aided by his sister, was already shortening' the cable chain, and their mother had most unwisely allowed them to accompany him to the ancient town at the mouth of the river. "How sweetly pretty!" said Carrie Grant when they reached the somewhat miry bank. And she was ri?ht, for one would have to travel far to find a fairer seen 0' green meadows. cornfields, copses rolling down, and the sheen of sraLden gorse along the moora above. The Kestrel's white mainsail was reflected in sunlit water in the fore- ground. Lonsdale, however, noticed with dismay that deep mud separated, them from the tiny dinghy, while the owner haiied that as the water "as falling he could not wadt, and they must row after :P:m. •'Ycm would spoil your pretty dresses. Do you think I might carry you?" asked Lons- dale, with a fluah; and Miss Grant answered severely, "Certainly not! You must put stones for 1.113 to step oil instead. So for half-an- ,?y carrieci ,3?ncc- a hour Lonsdale puicfuiiy carried .stance a hundred yaardas from a dry wall and bedded them in the mad, a.fter which he stood ankle- deep Mmseii while the girls walked c\er t:iem. By tli.-i time the Kestrel ba.d vanished behind an overhanging: wood, and he had, ruined a pair of new brown shoe*. Carrie Grain t glanced at tlem, saying: "You h el red in .so e y—I am so sorry." "The sijOiis dca't matter much. fa cases of this kind I borrow the skipper's thing's," he answered. Lonsdale rc'wf'd hard. P„eed bank, copse, and mildew slkl by. for the tide was racing seawards under them. But four mi1e-S passed before they overtoo-k the Ke»trel. then only to discover that ,<ht lay over Cdl one side with a, rush of muddy fluid boiling about her. while a. red-faced individual stood waist-deep in the river with his shoaMers against tne bow, an-d his sister thrusting desperately with an ü. while Lonsdale chuckled as he explained "'George lias, aci i?:r."l 1, missed the chancel, ard you must sit still while I help j h.im. This is one of the ways we enjoy our- selves." He ran the dinghy in on the top of a shoal and floundered towards the boat. When hoe arrived thet skipper told him that the a-cei-; dent had been solely cauiseit by his tardiress. but one gwd shove would snfflce to set her afloat. They shoved their hardest, and the res-wit was ti-ikin, for the Kestrel swayed upright (fuddeniy, jibbing her maiiniboo;m over; ttiea. as she floated, the sail burled Lonsdale from his feet. He went down head foremost, while the boat shot away with her skipper crawl- ing, dripping, over the ta If rail. Lonsdale recovered his footing, half-choked, and florin- dered afttT the Kestrel up to his shouidt-rs in muddy water until the skipper roared, "Where are you coming to? Go back for) the girls, you foo,il" When he regained the dinghy the elder pister regarded bim with ootid disapproval, > while the younger one threatened to choke with suppre^ccl merriment. In reply to their question he explained that his comrade would anchor as LIl as he could find deeper watpr lower down. Then, while his com- paniollii gathered their dainty skirts clear j of the water that drain-ed from him. he rowed for two hours, except when he got out and painfuily shoved the dinghy over the I shallows. This happened much otftener than he liked, so ti-,a,t when he rested very tired j at last t;h e,y had progressed some four miles or ";0. I "How far is it to the nearest station?" asked Miss of: rant; ainl LonsdaU- answered, with conscibus guilt, "Only ten miles, I think, although we cj,n't go very fast, because it's mostly dry land now the. water ba, run away. You could hardly get aslsore if you wanted to. Those high banks laok j very muddy." The sisters glanced at one another in uis* way, and the younger produced a packet > of sandwiches, which witn commendabie ,utt, -;ment her mother had given her. She handed Lonsdale one. who, forgetting that he was not on board the Ke?t-'Bl. abgtrac- tedly swallowed it at a -ulp, and then fidgeted awfully when be saw the amused wouder in Carrie Grant's eyes. His clothes woere stiking to him, his wet hair plastered his forehead, and he felt that his present guise was not- calculated to appeal to that maiden's fancy. Alas! the, long-expected picnic was a dismal failure. Still, it was necessary to get on, and, refusing further sandwiches, he took the towhue over his shoulder, and pioddro dejectedly along the bed f the river. But ( there is an end to everything: and at last when, worn-out, aching, and wet, he hauled the dinghy down a thread of water into a. wide waste of sand, in the centre of which the Kestrel lay high and dry, he said, ernl- tantly, "There, you can w-alk to her in half- r an-hour or --ol" "o" said Miss Grant, with emphasis; "we j have had quite s?mcient yachting for one | day. AVe are going straight to the village yendei*, and then to the railway." i Lonr-idale, feeling his efforts deserved a better reward, ftunig over the dinghy s t grapple, and for some time, because those j sands are wide, plodded in aggrieved silerace towards the shore. But the girls, who insisted on waiting behind him. halted in dismay j when a, narrow tide channel of the kind I called a. "gutter" ran between them and the houses scarcely two hundred yards away. Welshmen in the village street waved their arms excitedly, shouting something quite -unintelligible: but Lonsdale, who noticed strips of weed and froth were sailing past, ex.pdained in English, They say the i flood-tide is making, and we must h1.1iITY across. It was not a pleasant position. They stood j on a lallge island of .-and, the dinghy, as he noticed, already afloat perhaps a mile away, and another channel dividing them from the Kestrel. No other boat was visible, and the j tide sots strong over that level stretch of sands. "It looks hombly deep and dirty," said the elder girt wilh a shudder. What- ever shall "we do?" j Sbam-effajcedly Lonsdale answered, It will he deeper piresentlv. It-it can't be helped. I mu,.t carry you." I Miss Crantstarn-pel her pretty foot, which was wet and muddy; and Lonsdale, being a basthfud young man, stood wondering how to began, until he made a grab at her: and the other sister laughted outright when there I was a, cry, "Not that way; I'm not a sack or flour!" He staggered to the bank of the gutter, nearly missed blo footing, and reeled down the slope, when Miss Carrie Grant, who laughed deliriously, grew grave, for Lonsdale was up to his waist in water which swirled in white wreaths past him. The soft ooze yielded beneath his feet, twice he almost fell, but he floundered up the opposite bank in safety and dropped his burden, when the girl said, as icily as she could: II There—thanks—yau have carried me quite far -enough. "Thank heaven!" said Lonsdale, whose per- ceptions were mixed. "Ah—I don't mean that exactly—I and then retired precipitately. He progressed better at the second attempt, r r the younger sister 'VI'a:< either lighter or Eiore used to heing carried; and when he clapped h-er Lonsdale felt that this at least repaid all his pairs. But the tide rose every moment, the stream ran fast, and he ¡.:ank to the shoulders, the ?jrl's wet skirts, ws?hpd about him, while Miss Grant com- menced to scream. Then the water rhoaled a little, the drag of th^ current decreased, he was clear to the knees, and with a gasp of thankfulness stag- g-ered out on terra firma. "You did it splendidly. If you hadn't we should have been drowned—but now you can put me down," said the girl, who blushed bewitchingly as he answered, "I am only sorry it wasn't ever so much wider." "We are going straight to the hotel," said Miss Grant. "Mr Lonsdale, we bid vou adieu. You will come with us?—certainly not! There is a limit to one's- appearance, even after an afternoon's yachting." Lonsdale, raising his muddy cap, i. j nothing, though he flushed with pleasure when CaTrie Grant smiled. In the evening, ) when he lay in the Kestrel's tiny saloon, he said, "It, was a uniqu-e experience, but I enj-oyed the latter part of it—when I heloed her th rough the gutter." "I think you ought to be ashamed of your- i self. Lonsdale," said the owner's sister. "In all probability you will not get the chance of even looking at Miss Carrie Grant again." In this, however, the lady was wrong, for in after years Mr. and Mrs. Lonsdale, whose acquaintance ripened from that day, often laughed together over the unfortunate yacht- ing episode.

I Mr. George Paterson, of 16?, New Lane, Patricroft, Manchester, sends the strong statement published below, because he was so satisfied liims^h" with the results of taking Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills, and he wanted to make them better known by adding his testimony. Mr. Paterson writes :— You are strangers to me and I to you and a deep feeling of gratittfJe is the only excuse I can offer fur presuming to send you these few lines. For many years I have been a victim to disordered liver and its consequent afflictions, and nearly three years ago was induced to try Dr. Morse s Indian Root Pills, a medicine I can now -conscientiously assert which in every way accomplishes all that yon claim for it. I must cfdrnit at iirst I was somewhat sceptical, being all my life abhorrent of medicines and drugs of any description, but now after a fair three years' trial of Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills, I frankly admit that they have I I 11 ,? *•»» WTMWf worked wonders on me, and have, practi- cally speaking, made quite a new man of me. Without doubt they are honestly what you represent them to be, and that is saying a very great deal in this advanced scientific age in which we live. So thorough- ly satisfied am I of their astonishing success, I consider such a boon to suffering humanity should be made' as well known as possible therefore you have my full liberty to make whatever use vou may think fit of this letter. I may state that I still continue taking two Pills every night before going to bed, and will do so as long as I can get them." The above testimonial told in a simple, conscientious, matter-of fact manner,' bears the ring of truth. It is an unvarnished narrative of the wonderful efficacv of Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills to overcome the common ail- ments of mankind. Dr. Worse's Indian Root Pills get at the cause of pain and sickness. They drive the impurities out of the blood. Thev give you clean bowels, a healthy stomach, a lively liver active kidneys, and pure blood, rich and red, imparting health and strength to the whole system.

We have merely been waiting on a lady who dropped in for I a packet of pins. TRAGEDY AVERTED. The paile, proud girl turns to tne big, heavy-browed man, who is gazing at her intently. He has a glittering knife in his hand. "Have you no. heart?" she asks, in low, even tones. "No," he tells her. "Then give me twopenny worth of liver." Rapidly catting off the desired amount, the butcher wraps it up for her, gives her the chan-ga, and turns to wait on the next customer.

For Women Folk. 1 I HOMELY HINTS AND DAINTY DISHES A very delicious flavour is imparted to a cu-p of chocolate if a tiny piece of cinnaimnn be added to it. The result is surprisingly good. Marks left by burns can be- made much loss noticeable by washing the skin every night for several w<:eks with either milk or butter- milk. A little lanoline and olive-oil is a-lpo recommended for the same purpose; the former, only for a dry skin. To take out claret stains, rinse in cold -ater in A-h-ich a few cirops of ammonia, and spirits of wine have been placed. To remove the spots after the lincti has been washed. rub on each side with yellow soap and appiy some thickly made starch; rub well, and expose to the sun or a.ir tintil the stain dis- appears. Salads In Germany the "Kartoffein-salat" is greatl^ y favoured. To make, cut cooked potatoes in slices, and make "dres.-ing" of best oil, vinegar, niilk, pepper, and salt, adding finely minced onions or leeks (young). Half "dressing" is poured over sliced pota- toes in salad bowl, which is then vigorously turned between the hands until all sides of potatoes are coated with mixture. Minced | giierkins, olives, and capers, a very little sugar, salt and pepper last of all being [added. Good Carrot Wine Take 41b. of carrots, wash well, but do not peel them, cut up into slice?, and put them into a pan, and add one gallon of water to each 41b. of carrots and 2oz. of bruised ginger. Boil until the carrots are tender, then strain, and add 41b. of demfiara, sugar to every gallon of juioe. Add the juice of two lemons, let all boil together for ten rninutes, and skim off the scuta that rises. When nearly cold add a tablespionful of good barm on a piece of toast. Stand in a warm place for 24 hours and put in a stone i-ar or cask, when it will be rea-dy to bottle in six months. To Boil Vegetables I Green vegeta-bles should be cooked un- covered this improves both the colour and the flavour. Small pieces of charcoal in the wat-er where any vegetable is cooking will prevent the odour arising. Young, fresh vegetables should be boiled in hoard water; a little salt serves to harden the water. Dry vegetables need soft water; a little baking- scda will soften the water. The following time-table for boiling vegetables should prove of ii-Asparagms from 25 to 40 minutes, cauliflower 45 minutes, marcaroni 50 minutes, brussels sprouts 30 minutes, spinach 20 minutes, carrots 2 hours, potatoes 311 minutes, and fresh white turnips 23 minutes.
UNION FUNDS FOR M.Ps.!
UNION FUNDS FOR M.Ps. A public meeting in connection with the Trades and Labour Council was held at Llanelly on Saturday evening, the principal speaker being Mr. Will Thorne, M.P. Refer-" ring to the decision of the courts against the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants using their funds towards the payment of members of Parliament, Mr. Thorne said it was rather singular that it was that Union that was responsible for having the law altered in regard to the Taff Vale decision which had given the various Trades Unions more freedom. When the Taff Vale Dispute Bill was before the House of Commons not a ¡ single member of Parliament thought there was any flaw in it. The question of impos- ing levies for Parliamentary representation never crossed their minds, or they would have had inserted in the Bill a clause giving power to Trades Unions to pay out money for Parliamentary purposes. The decision against the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants would have a far- reaching effect, but he hoped the various Unions would not be panic-stricken in regard to it. the decision was a very unfortunate one. So far as the Gas Workers' Union, of which he was the general secretary, was concerned, they were not going to take any notice at all of the decision of the courts. A number of men might be dissatisfied at what was being done, and they could apply for an injunction, but it did not follow that they were going to get it. What was the Labour party formed for? Was it not to brighten the lives of the workers, and if Mr. Osborne said he did not want that, then he was a foci. Mr. Osborne had been granted an injunction, and they were now awaiting the decision of the Law Lords, who, he was of opinion, would upset the injunction. It they would not, then the Labour party would start an active propaganda eo as to get the decision altered.

I Football -Notes
I Football Notes ———„——— I [By » FORWARD."] England's defeat by the Wallabies 'will hav the effect of lessening th? interest m next Saturday's international struggle fit Cardiff, the impression having gone abroad that England is not yet her old self in Rugby football, and t11o. sho will be no match for Wales. Actual play will probably prove that such an impression was a correct one. and it has to be regretfully admitted that those optimists who fancied they could see a brighter day dawning for England were grievously disappointed with the poor exhibition given by her representatives on the classic Rectory Ground. Their chagrin was all the more keenly felt because of the brilliant style in which F. N. Tarr and E. R. Mobbs opened out an attack on the left wing, which resulted in England drawing first blood. Such a finely executed movement could not fail to produce the impression that the tide had turned at last-, and that the predominant partner had found the men who could. rehabilitate the status of English football. Subsequent* events proved that the effort was merely a flash in the pan, and that the fond hope it had created was only a mocking delusion. To gain a lead of three points, as England did, in the first few minutes of the game would have been a fine moral tonic to most international sides, especially when account is taken of the corresponding demoralising effect it must have had on the opposing team. But the English players, instead cf benefiting by their early fcuocess, and showing their appreciation by putting more vigour than ever into their play, began to show symptoms of nervous- ness and apprehension lest they should lose that lead, and their play -ecame slack and ragged as a consequence. One is, indeed, almost inclined to think that it would have been better for England if Tarr and Mobbs had not brought off their drama- tic coup when they did, and if the side had been forced to piay more of an uphill game. It ought not to have been so, and it is difficult to understand the temperament of a powerful, lusty lot of men who could allow their courage to evaporate as the wearers of the red, red rose did on this occa- sion. A little more keenness or earnestness j of purposo would have easily prevented tho first two of the three Australian tries being scored, and the fatal slackness displayed was chiefly on the part of Lieutenant Lyon h waiting for the ball to bounce from high kicks instead of getting into position to gather it before it touched the ground. Had Lyon being a man of small stature, liable to be injured by oncoming forwards, there would have been some reason for a feeling of compassion towards him, but as he is a son of Anak, big and strong enough to stand up against anybody or anything, bo cannot expect to be excused These two individual incidents spelt the downfall of England in a double sense. They not only gave the Wallabies the lead, but was the best and most stimulating tonic they could have desired, while they had the contrary effect upon the poor old Mother Country. It was all so painfully disappoint- ing to those who had pinned their faith to the English team, and the only consoling thought which was left to them at the end of the game was that the Australians, taking all things into consideration, deserved their victory. They played with more cohesion and greater deter- mination, and once they had drawn le.vel and taken the proper measure of their opponents they displayed superiority in skill and tactics. In no department was this so I marked as at outside-half, where A. H. Ashcroft, the Cambridge University man, was a complete failure. He had a brilliant partner in R. H. Williamson, who frequently served him with perfect passes, but he fumbled most of them, and England, as a consequence, failed to bring off any con- certed movements that looked in the least degree likely to break through the defence. As anticipated, several changes have been made in the English team to meet Wales. It was originally determined to make the selec- tion at Blaekheath on Saturday, bat the process of sifting the wheat from the chaff was postponed, and one can readily under- stand the reason why. If not actually panic- stricken, the selectors must have been sorely perplexed by the indifferent manner in which their men had performed. They are entitled to gome amount of sympathy, because their task, after all, was one bristling with diffi- culties, and it is easier to find fault with them than to pick a representative team from such a wide and scattered area. They have not only to consider individual merit, but t 'I? class of players who are most likely to assimilate and blend into a homogeneous whole. There were players in Saturday's team. who had been brought together from such widely-separated districts as Surrey, Midland Counties, Oxford University, Corn- wall. Bast Midlands, Cambridge Univer- sity, Somerset, Northumberland, Devon, a.nd Kent, and many of them had never seen each other until they turned out for the practice game OIl Friday. While there may be every desire to recognise individual ability of the highest order in a player, which is only fair and just, it is a matter of greater importance to study com- bination, and this can often be acquired by playing a number of men of ordinary calibre rather than so many brilliant individualists as units. That, in effect, is the problem which the English selectors have been trying to solve for some years past, and up to date they have not succeeded. In Wales the selectors are not confronted with the same difficulty, for reasons that are too obvious to be discussed. It has often occurred to me that the choice of a Welsh team could )>e safely delegated to the many thousands of devotees who constitute the great football public of South Wales, and it only requires the invention of some simple and reliable means by which it could be made possible for them to name their nomi- nees for international honours. This is not iii the nature of t six?, in the nature of a suggested alternative to the present system, because the Welsh Union men, with all their faults, have not made many mistakes in their selections during recent years. In England such an interest- ing innovation woujd be as impracticable as it would be impossible, and the task falls to a few men who are suppo&ed to know the form of all the best players in England from the banks of the Tweed down to Land's End. Well, there is no doubt about it that the English selectors were in doleful dumps, and one could not help feeling profoundly inter- ested in the result of their deliberations after they had met to choose the team for Satur- day They had the peace and calm of Sun- day to meditate over their duties to the nation they represent, and by this time they hare made up their minds upon the various details of re-constitution. One can imagine that they began with the forwards, and that they were agreed that more speed and dash I were desirable qualities in the pack, and that they could with advantage sacrifice or surrender much of the adipose tissue that was such a handicap to the pace and alert- neas of some of Saturday's forwards. They also determined upon securing eight solid scrimmagers who possess something more man an elementary knowledge of proper packing and clean, swift heeling. There are many forwards in England who are gifted with that knowledge, and there was no excuse for not finding them. Williamson could not help retaining his place, but it is just pos- sible that he will be unable to play on account of the accident he sustained in the closing stages of Saturday's game. Ashcroft could not expect to find favour a second time, and Dick Jones would have been more pleased than anyone if the unexpected had happened in that direction. In choosing the three-quarters the selectors could not have been blamed if they had been influenced by the fact that Assinder, Tarr, Bennetts, and Mobbs were placed under a severe disadvantage by the inefficiency of Ashcroft, and it would not have been sur- prising if the whole quartette were given another trial. Mobbs. however, has been dropped and his place given to Simpson, the I speedy Northumbrian, who has previously played for his country. More capable, if not bigger custodians than lieutenant Lyon did not require a lot of finding, and the com- mittee had no need to go farther afield than Leicester, where the versatile Jackett has I held the fort so splendidly. Altogether, there are seven changes, but the re-organisa- tion, though drastic with a vengeance, does not weaken my faith in Wales. The alte-ra- tions that have been made will meet with the approval of all good judges of the t game who witnessed the match at Blaekheath.

Police-constable Sales, of the borough poiice, rescued no fewer than eight persons pending the arrival of the fire brigade. On discovering the fire, which was burn- ing fiercely en the ground floor, he called for assistance, and, obtaining a ladder, brought down Miss Dorothy Ewall, a visitor, the barmaid, two servants, and four chil- dren. aged from two to fourteen, of the pro- prietor.

Fenner and the cook by means of the eseap<õ'1 the cook being almost in a state of collapse. All were in night attire only. They were promptly taken for shelter to the police- utation.

Chauffeur's Perilous Position An outbreak of fire occurred on Saturday evening in a motor garage at Sherrinfg-ton Manor, Selzneston, Sussex. A car was being I examined by a chauffeur named John West- I lake, who was in the pit underneath the vehicle, when, through the breaking of an I electric light lamp, the petrol fumes ignited I and set the car on fire. Help was, fortunately,! at hand, and the burning car was moved. Westlake, whose hand and a.rm were burnt, was extricated from the pit. The car, valued at £ 700, was destroyed, and the garage itself somewhat damaged. Cotton Mill Gutted A disastrous fire occurred on Saturday at Langworthy's Mill, Salford.

The flag3 at ,Newport Town-hall, at the Alonmo'Uthsliire County Council offices, and j at the Alexandra Dock Pier-head were placed at half-mast on Saturday. Lord Llangattock's Tribute Lord Llanga-ttock presided at a meeting of the executive committee of the North Mon- mouthshire Conservative Association at Biaenavon on Saturday, and in speaking of the death of Colonel the lIoll. F. C. Morgan referred to his own happy associations with the colonel daring the time they represented the county in Parliament. He had never come across a, man who went straighter along the path of duty. Most of his life was spent in his native county, where he was beloved by all. The great affection which existed between Colonel Morgan and his brother, Viscount Tredegar, was well known. Never he (Lord Llangattock) .believed were two brothers more closely bound by the tie of brotherly love, or more devoted to the welfare of the people among whom they lived. The colonel's death would be mournedby the county at large, and by none more than the poor. His lordship then moved a resolution of sym- pathy with Lord Trede?a?r, Colonel Courtenty Morgan, and the other members of the family, and this was carried, the audience standing. NEWPORT .T-P.'S APPRECIATION. Before the bnsaness of the county magrs- trates at Newport on Saturday com- menced Colonel C. T. Wallis, the chairman, referred to the death of the late Colonel Morgan as that of a dear friend, who would be remembered for many years for his gene- rona and sympathetic bearing to the poor and those who needed assistance in time of trouble.
COLONEL BRUCE VAUGHAN 1
COLONEL BRUCE VAUGHAN 1 Proposed Recognition of His Vast Work The agenda for Wednesday's meeting of the board of management of the Cardiff Infirmary contains the following notice of motion by Dr. J. Tatbam Thompson:- That the minute of the bouse committee of September 5, 1908, and the minute of the board of management of October 14, 1938, referring to the proposed presentation of a portrait to Colonel Bruce Vaughan, together with all subsequent resolutions relating thereto, be hereby rescinded. Dr. Thompson explained to our representa- tive that many of the members felt that a man who had done so much for the infir- mary as Colonel Bruce Vaughan had done deserved something' better than a presenta- tion in the form described in the various resolutions, and, in order to piave the way to some great honour, it was necessary to rescind all that had hitherto been decided in connection with the subject.

Congress& M r Roosevelt]
Congress& M r Roosevelt ] NATIONAL REBUKE FOR HIS ADDRESS I "How does tho President feel?" Congress- man Parsons was asked as he left the White House on Saturday morning. "Oh, things such a.s' happened yesterday do not worry Koosevelt," he replied. Nevertheless, the whole nation is stirred by the action of the House of Kepresentatives. For the fourth time in history and the first time in forty years isays the New York correspondent of the "Observer"), Congress has rebuked the President on account of his messages. Mr..Roosevelt's publication of letters attacking the integrity of Senator Tillman is regarded as a characteristic attempt to divert the issue. Meanwhile people are awaiting Mr. Tillman's explanation, which is expected to-day (Monday). Briefly, he "is charged by the President with seetking to have grants of land to rail- way companies cancelled and the lands thrown open to settlement because the rail- ways did not comply with the terms of the grants, meanwhile arranging to buy por tions of such lands if the -rants were annulled. and at the same time denying in the Senate that he had bought or tried to buy timber lands. As Mr. Tillman himself ask&d the Department of Justice and the Postmaster General to investigate the charges, he is resDonsible for whatever in??y happen to himself. Mr. Roosevelt has had the reports in his possession for six months. and if Mr. Tillman had been guilty of the crime there is no doubt that the President would have prosecuted him. Mr. Tillman alleges that oertain letters and telegrams which he left in his desk in the Senate have disappeared since the spring, but he promises a complete justification ut his course of action. The newspapers, in-1 eluding many tha-t formerly supported Mr. Koosevelt, generally uphold the action of the House. The" World" says:—"At last Mr. Roosevelt's reckless career of personal, auto- cratic government has been checked; the RooseeNc,it reign of terror has ended. In vin- dicating its own honour the House has vindi- cated the honour of the nation." The Times remarks that it is fervently to be hoped that Mr. Roosevelt will make at least a private admission of his errors and offences and refrain from further provoca- tion. The Evening^ Mail publishes a cartoon, entitled joy 'in the Jungle." showing a monkey reading a cable, Roosevelt in hot water," to the assembled wild beasts of Africa, whose faces express glee at the tidings. Action of Congress The House of Representatives has adopted a resolution by 211 votes to 36, laying on the taoble the portion of President Roosevelt's annual mess-age relating to the Secret Service, as well as the entire special message on the same subject. The resolution was not put until the matter had been debated for s,ix hours.—Central News.

I Foolish pranke on New Year's Eve were I responsible for the appearance of David Waters, a young mason, living at 8, Eva- terrace, Ferryside, on a string of charges at Carmarthen County Police-court on Satur- day. In the first case Thomas Davies, a fisherman, of 19, Brigstocke-terrace, sum- moned him for an alleged assault. Mr. Wallis Jonet-, solicitor, who appeared for the defendant: There has been some un- pleasantness because the defendant is court- ing your ciaugh ter ?-\Yitness Yes. The daughter has no objection, has she?- She tells me she has. (Laughter.) Defendant said he only called at the house to wish the oomplainant, whose daughter he was courting, a happy New Year in a friendly way, when the complainant bundled j him out of the hou&e.  The Bench, after hearing further evidence, dismissed both the summons and oross-sum- mooB. Mr. Brunei White appeared for the complainant in this case. Waters was next charged by Police-con- stable Richards with being drank and dis- orderly in the village on the night in ques- tion, and a previous conviction having been reoorded, defendant was fined 20s. and costs. P'olioe-e Eicharas "r~^i>her charged Waters with wearing a Naval Reserve uniform under such circumstances as to bring contempt upon the King. The Chairman (Mr. Dudley Drummond), in imposing a fine of 20s. and costs, said it was a lucky thing for defendant that he was not being tried at Portsmouth. They had had quite enough of this hooliganism at Ferry- side, and defendant had better be careful be did not come before the bench any more. It would be a good thing if you were in the Navy," continued the Chairman; "it would teach you how to behave yourself."

IGovernor Hughes !
I Governor Hughes A TOWERING FIGURE IN AMERICAN POLITICS Charles E. Hughes, Governor and Cxov?rnor-elect of New York, might be described as a professional sop to the hydra of public conscience." So Mr. W. S. Bridgraan commences a piquant sketch which is published in this month's "Munsey'g Mr.g:azine." The politicians have a habit of i/Osising him to the public by way of appealing its wrath. They have commonly done this with some lingering hope that the public would devour him, and let them escape while it was thus occupied. But the public, eiays Mr. Bridgman, have elevated him, and now, by dint of a most remarkable endorse ment, it seems to have do wed him with tihe terrors of the many- lxaded monster aid sent him forth to eat up the politicians. This modest office lawyer, with neither experience nor equipment, with no taste for the play of the politicia,ns, ha.s beaten the politicians at their own game-- generally by refusing to play it. There is no estimating Mr. Hughes by ordinary staiidurds. Other men have done much of the same work he is doing, but none has done it in the same way. Hughes is animated by the simple conviction that he must do the job that is cut out for him according to hil own ide-as and in his own way. When it came to the insurance investi- s-ahon. Hughes was first u--ie,d as a sop to the Cerberus of public opinion. He was chosen. and everyone now Jjnows with what ddll and persistence a.nd singleness of purpose he did his work. That investigation is recog- nised as one of the towering landmarks on the route of the crusade for higher and better ideals in business and public life, and particularly in the inter-relations of the two. When Mr. Hughes became Governor, the I Legislature, Mr. Brid?ia?n goes on, did not understand him ?tise he was -a?t n, pOH- tician. He told it what he thought ought to be done, and then he sat en the lid and waited for something to happen. Whe ,iriti didn't happen, instead of sending for the recalcitrant statesmen and dickerin" and dealing with them, he invaded their home districts. He managed to get invited to deliver addresses at public fuiaetioiis. He talked right out from the shoulder. He told the people what he was trying to get done, and how important it was. in this cheery social fashion he kindled fires under one after another of the legislators j who were antagonistic to the Bills. I Governor Hughes, the sketch ooinciudes is at t.he middle of his career as Governor. I He has foun4 a new way of getting result^ and he must put it to the test of further trial. It is too early to forecast the con. clusion of his career. When Roosevelt is out of office, Hughes will stand before the nation as the foremost exponent of the great body of sentiment which demands that big business shall be kept out of politics. That is a tremendous issue in this country. To stand as the spokesman of so determined and widespread and righteous a movemcn-t is to occupy a position of the first potentiality j among American public men of the time. i
