On Monday evening, Wrexham played Rhos, at Johnstown, the game finally ending in a draw of two goals each. The Wrexham eleven only included four first team men. Of the remainder, four were from the Victoria: team, two from the Hibernians, and one a substitute picked up on the ground. Rhos scored twice during the first five minutelw, and had the best of the game up to half-time. The second portion was greatly in favor of Wrexham, who even- tually equalised the score. Rhos were handicapped by the absence of Prichard, who received a kick on the previous Saturday, and his place at back was only poorly filled by P. Edwards, of Rhostyllen, who happened to be present on the ground, and was asked to play. Rhos are yet a long way removed from a good team. There is very little combination, and the passing is rather elementary. Turner played a good game in goal for Wrexham, and tue defence was also good. The forwards played a grand passing game. J. Turner waa about the beat, but Trainer, Kelly, and Williams also did well. A largely attended public meeting was held at Crewe on Monday night to consider the position of the Alexandra Football Club. Mr Hall, secretary of the Football Alliance, repotted that Mr Webb, loco. motive superintendent of the North-western Railway, had absolutely refused to employ professional foot- ballers in Crewe Works. Mr Webb was asked to receive a deputation on the subject, but he had de- clined, and said any footballers receiving money in future would be discharged from the service. A committee was formed to try to select an amateur team. We trust the club is not going to be broken up. The season has been finished in such good style as to promise better things in the future. During the reason Chirk have plaved 34 matches, won 17, lot 12, and drawn 5, scoring 89 goals against 62. This may appear poor as compared with the record of the club in previous yearp, but seeing that such clubs as the following have betn played, it is fairly satisfactory :-Evel ton. Accrington, Bolton Watideterp, West Bromwich Albion, Ironopolis, Ardwick, liury, Hyde and Crewe Alexandre. We may mention that all the matches with these clubs, with one exception, were played away from home. The Chirk second team have played 12 matches, won nine, lost two, and drawn one, scoring 40 goals against 11. The Wrexham Grosvenor, which has completed its third season, will not be continued. Of the 20 matches played, five were won, ten lost, and five drawn, 45 goals being scored against 60. The Erddig Albion has had a better time of it. They have played 16 matches, won saven, lost six, and drawn three. ifat a meeting of the Welsh Association Committee on Wednesday night, che estimate of Mr E. Owens, Town Hill, Wrexham, for the thirty-three medals for t'1e winners and runners-up of the Senior Cup, and the winners of the Junior Cup, was accepted. The design of the same tradesman was also accepted for the silver cup for the Junior competion. A complaint was made by Rhos against Bangor and Westminster Rovers, for not keeping fixtures, the matter was left over until the first committee meeting next season. Messrs Taylor and Hunter were appointed to re- present the Association at the meeting of the Inter- national Board, to be held at Glasgow, in June next. The decision with reference to professionalism has been deferred by the Welsh Association for a fort- night. We are rather dubious as to whether it will be legalised at present, but it is only a question of time, and must come sooner or later. The meeting convened for Wednesday night to consider the advisability of forming a Denbighshire and Flintshire Charity Association is postponed to Wednesday, May 13th, after the Welsh Association meeting. Druids beat Rhos at Ruabon on Wednesday even- ing by two goals to nil. For the visitors, Pritchard in goal was perfect. Of the defence, Kyffiu and J. Jones were the pick, and in the front division Ky ffin and It. Jouea were the best. Thomas in goal for the Druids made a good impression. The back division all played a strong game. The forwards were about of equal merit, the right wing players being perhaps the best. RUABON RESERVE V. BKOOKSIDE RANGERS.— Piayed on Saturday, a fast game ending in a draw of one goal each. RHOS V. GRESFORD. -Played at Johnstown, on Saturday, the home team winning by five goalet to one. WREXHAM RESERVE V. SALTNRY.-Played at Saltney. on Saturday, the home team winning by five goals to nil. CHESTER ST OSWALD'S V. CHESTER.—This match in the aemi-tinal round of the Chester Charity Cuu was played at Chester on Saturday, the St. Oswald's winning by two goals to nil. GRESFORD OCTOGENARIANS v. GBESFOUD RESERVES, —This match created the greatest interest in the village. The Octogenarians were old men, but none of them reached eighty years of lage. The ball was kicked off by Cautain Randell, and some very amusing episodes took place during the game. but eventually the veterans sustained their boast of being able to beat the juniors, as the result was in their favor by three goalR ngaillRt two. WREXHAM VICTORIA V. MANCOTT AND PEN-TRE UNITED.—Played at Sandycroft < n Saturday before a large number of spectator, Tiainer started the ball for the Victoria at nvc "'clock. The Vict >ria were granted a coiner, which Williams put over the bar. The home team then made an attack, the visitors' back division playing rather loosely. After one failure another rush was made, and the home team finally scored amid cluers. Piay then became ta!tt. the ball travelling rapidiy from goal to goal At half- time Mancott led by one goal to nil. On re-ttartinj:, the Vies went straight away, and Trainer equalised the score, Directly from the kiik-off Kelly got possession and passed to Parry, who got away and transferred to Williiins, scored a second goal for the Vies. Tfie Victoria p!nj-ed very well, their passing being excellent, and they had several narrow chances of scoring. A pleasant game ended in a win for the Victoria by two goals to one. WREXHAM v. RHOS. ) Played at Johnstown, on Monday evening, before a small number of spectators. In the first five minutes Rhos scored twice, R. Roberts heading through the first goal, and the second being rushed through. Rhos led -it half-time by two goals to nil. I In the second half, Wrexham pressed. Trainer scored one goal and J. Turner a second. The final I result was a draw of two goals each.—The tam8 I were as follows :— WREXHAM.—R. E. Turner, goal E. ElPs and A Davies, backs Billington; Wilding and A. H-iycs, half- backs G. K'iwards and J. Turner, left wing G. Kdiy and substitute, right ?ing H. Trainer, centre. and subsGti. tuteE, I;;?rds, goal P. K)f8n and P. Edwards hacks J. Kyffin, R.

Played at Ruabon, on Saturday. The home club having won the toss, Jones kicked off for Oswestry, who at once ran up to the home end, but Taylor robbed Evans, and t'le leather was sent to mid-field, where it was met by Richards. The visitors again, by some good long passing, worked the ball to the home quarters, but Benbow shot wide. The Druids now took up tvie pressure, which was kept up with much vigor, but the visitors' defence was good. After Evans had kicked behind, the visitors again took up the running, but only for a brief period. The home left made a splendid run, Jones passed to the right, Evans received and centred, and Bassett headed through. From the centre kick the visitors ran up, and Postle had to ward off a shot from Neild. The game continued very fast and exciting, and although the Druids had the best of the play, they could not penetrate the magnificent defence of Davies and Roberts, and half time arrived with the home club leading by one goal to nil.—In the second half the Druids penned the visitors throughout the remainder of the game, Roberts in goal playing a sterling game, repelling shot after shot amid much cheering, but the dtteronnen rustles ot the home forwards were too much for the defence on several occasions, and four additional points were added. Just on the call of time. Roberts, the visitors' goalkeeper, was very ¡ severely injured. The home forwards made a rush, and Roberts gallantly resisted the attack. He, how. 'I ever, fell, and was accidentally tramplell upon. The game was at once terminated, and Roberts was carried from the field. The following were the teams I DRUIDS: G. Postle, goal: R. E. Jones and Taylor, backs J. E. BAward-j, It. Humpheys.and J. R. Jones, half-backs; J. Evans and J Davies, right wing W. Jonea and T. Davies, left wing; Bassett, centre. OSWESTRY liobtrt-4, goal: S Fleet and J. Davies, backs E. Fleet, Richards, and Edwards, half-backs Ben- bow and George Evans, right wing Evaas and Nield, left- wins W. E. Jones, centre. j DRUIDS v, RHOS. These clubs met in a friendly encounter on Wednes- day evening, in Wynnstay fark. Neither teams played their full strength. There was a fairly large attendance. About a quarter past six, in the face of a strong wind, Bassett set the ball rolling, and the lio-ne right made an atempt at a run. From a good pass W. Jones took a shot which grazed the bar. J. Jones relieved with a huge kick, and Postle had to I kick out. A corner followed for the visitor?. The ball was nicely placed by J. Jones, but Postle relieved. n. E. Jonea returned in fino style, and liees missed a splendid opening through kicking wide. t U. Jones followed with a beauty immediately after- I wards, but Thomas cleared. A free kick for the home lot gave then, an advantage. W. Jones sent in two I strong shots, Pritchard tisting out finely. The home forwards got well down again, and Bassett converted a beautiful pass by D. Evaua into the first goal. I From the kick-uff the home front rank rushed off, and Stubbs was applauded for some tricky work. A free kick close to the home goal looked dangerous, but the ball went through untouched. Kyffin stopped a good rush, and a free kick for hands relieved a heavy pressure on the visitors' goal, shortly afterwardp. Again the homesters got well away and D. Evans shot into Pritchard's hands, the Rhos custodian throwing out in fine style. The Rhns centre looked dangerous, but Stubba checked hili career. After both ends had been visited. KJ ffin on the right was conspicuous with two long and well- directed abota. The visiting forwards again made an attack. Kyffin shooting a little wide. The same player missed a splendid chance of scoring directly afterwards through over-running the ball. A well- sustained attack was kept up at the visitors'goal, and Taylor with a long shrfc added the second goal for the Ancients." Half-time arrived with the score standing Druids, 2 Rhos, nil. Upon resuming, the Druids dashed away. W. Edwards checked the home right just in time, and the visitors' left made a good attempt to score. The home left get away in splendid style, but Bassett made a poor shot at goal. The play was now con- fined to the Rhos half, and numerous shots were sent in from all sides, but Pritchard saved his charge marvellously. Fine play by the visitors' right took the ball into more neutral quarters, and n. Jones tried a long shot. The home lot continued to have the best of the game, but the defence of the visitors could not be broken, the reau t at the finish being Druids, 2 Rhop, nil. The following were the teams RHOS.—Pritchard, goal P. Kjffin and W Edward". backs R. E. Jones, J. Jones and E. Lloyd. half-backs J. RA ffin and J. Davies, right wing; W. Reeves aid R. T.

Jones and T. Davies, lefi; wing Basset, centre WREXHAM v. WREXHAM VICTORIA. I This match was played on Wrexham Racecourse on Thursday evening, the "gate" being devoted towarda clearing off a debt still remaining, and which was incurred in improving the ground. Wrexham played with the wind in the first half, and W. Turner at once scored a fine Kos). The same player directly afterwards rushed through a second point. Wrexham scored again from a corner, and then Kelly scored for the Victoria amidst cheers. At half-time Wrexham led by three goals t) one.—In the second half, from a cross by J. Turner, Morris added a fourth point for the town club, and directly afterwards a fifth was put through from a free kick for hands. The Vies then pressed, and near the finish put on a second goal. The final score was thus—Wrexham, five goals; Victoria, two. The following were the teams :— WREXHAM R. E. Turner. goal: Ellis and Roberts, backs Evan Williams. Hayes, and J. Owens, half-backs; T.

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF…
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE I WELSH ASSOCIATION. I The annual general meeting of the Welsh Associa- tion was held at the Wynnstay Arms Hotel, Wrex- ham, on Wednesday night. Mr T. E. Thomas pre. sided, and there were also present—Messre. H. Hunter, Oswestry; G. H. Jones, Shrewsbury C. W. Berrie, Rhyl; D. Smith, Westminster Rovers; Cotton, Rhostyllen; J. K. Wilcox, Ruabon; J. Morrison. Ruabon, members of the Welsh Com- mittee; E. Phennah, Wrexham Gosson, Shrews. bury; P. Griffiths, Chirk; Grindlev, Flint; Wil- liams, Broughton St. Pauls; E. Cotterill, Rhos Thompson, Rhostyllen; J. Wilding, Westminster Rovers; J. Stanford, Wrexham Victoria; Cafferty, Wrexham Hibernians; Dodd, Brymbo Institute, and J. Taylor, secretary. The Chairman said that Mr Hunter and Mr Taylor had been appointed to represent the Association at the meeting of the International Board to be held in Glasgow in June. The following recommendation to the Board from the English Association was considered :That it is desirable that the positions of umpires should be abolished. That lines-men should be appointed whose duties (subject to the referee) should be to decide when the ball is out of play. and which side has the throw in. Mr G. H. Jones proposed that the Association approve of the change. Mr Phennah seconded. He thought the change would save a lot of time and trouble. Mr Hunter said some time ago the chairman pro. posed a resolution, which was identical with the present one. Mr Williams and Mr Grindley were in favor of letting matters remain as they were. Mr Stanford suppoit^d the resolution and Mr Morrison said he thought the recommendation should go further, and give the referee power to give free kicks for foul play without an appeal. The resolution was carried, three voting against it. The following recommendation by the Board itself was next considered :—The Board is of opinion that legislation is desirable on the following lines If any player shall intentionally ttip or hold an opposing player, or deliberately handle the ball within twelve yards from his own goal-line, the referree shall, on appeal, award the opposing side a penalty kick, to be takett from any point twelve yards from the goal-line under the following conditions-All playeis, with the exception of the player taking the penalty kick, and the opposing goalkeeper, shall stand behind the ball, and at least six yards from it; the ball shall be in play when the kick is taken. A goal nny be scored from the penalty kick.' The Council of the Football Association also propose the above." The Seen tiry The recommendation arose out of a proposal by he Irish Association with reference to some matter. The proposition was not approved of and consequently fell through. Some years ago the English Association had a rule to the effect that if a player knocked the ball out when, in the opinion of the referee, it was going between the posts, he was to allow a goal. This however, was found out t o work well. He proposed that the recommendation be ape proved of. Mr Berrie seconded, and it was agreed to, two vot- ing against it. There was a long discussion on the motion by the Chairman, to alter rule 16 of the cup ccmpetition rules, so as; o allow a protest being lodged with the referee only, and not with the captain of the opposing team and referee, as at present. On being put to the vote, seven voted for the altera- tion and seven against. The Chairman gave his casting vote in favor of the alteration. It was decided that the committee instruct referees to give immediate notice of any protest lodged with him t ) the team protested against. On the m< tion of the Secretary, seconded by Mr Hunter, it was decided to make such alteration in the cup competition rules as to provide for the last eight clubs left in the competition being thrown in the hat together. The S:cretiry said his intention in proposing the resolution was to lead to one to the effect that the four semi-finals be excused playing in the preliminary rounds, and that the winners in the four divisions should fien be put in the hat with the seiiii-fitialist, The Secretary then moved that itiled be adopted to provide for the registration of players as pro- fessionals. He said if the resolution was carried, that a sul,-cjinrn:lttee would have to be appointed to drc.w up uiles for the registration of professionals, and for the keeping of them under the control I.f the Associa- tion. The only objection at present t) professional players taking part in the Welsh Cup Competition, was rule 20 of the Association lules, which would, of course be struck out if this resolution was carried. lie was confident if the Welsh Association adcpted professionalism, that it would make their club better, and they would become more popular. It would tend to keep their players at home, for they could n, t adopt fctringent rules to prevent importation. If the resolution was carried, it did not mean that all the clubs were to go in for wholesale professionalism. It was simply a protection against English clubs coming down and hiring away their best players. The abilities of the new players in a t -am were not found out until part of the season was over, and then just when the team was getting into shape, some of the players were taken away. Of course, signing ii. professional form might only be an arrangement with the club to pay him for the time lost by him. Mr D. Smith seconded. The Chairman said there seemed to be a growing feeling of dissatisfaction amongst Welsh cluba with reference to their players being enticed away. He thought if they could get players registered at the beginning that they could then depend upon them for the remainder of the season. The only thing was whether, when the rules were adopted and the players registered with the Welsh Association, that would prevent English clubs taking the players registered. Mr Hunter said most certainly. The Secretary said cluhs that entered the English Cup would have to register professionals with the English Association. Mr Phennat said thjre was no doubt Welsh clubs were crippled when they had their t-ams well together. There were many young prayers put into the team at the beginning of the season, who before the season was half over were taken away by English club?. If the English clubs had taken them at the beginning of the season, they would have been quite welcome to them, but I no, they were taken just when they were most wanted. He did not say that any Welsh club would be able to pay their men a regular wage, but he thought some of them would go to some trouble in getting money to see the playerki.- dida!not lose any- thing by having to lose half-a-day'a work. Clubs would then be able to send away bettsr teams. The only objection he had to it was that they would not often have the cup in Wales. Mr G. H. Jcnea and Mr Stanford spoke against the motion. {r Berrie supported the proposition. He thought if Wales adopted professionalism, that Ireland and Scotland would also adopt it. He knew that there were players in Wales, who were at present paid for loss of time. On being put to the vote, nine voted for the amend- ment, and nine against. The Chairman said he felt disinclined to give his casting vot3 either way, and finally Mr Cotton proposed that the meeting adjourn for a fortnight. Mr Phennah seconded, and it was agreed to.

At Benkovac, on the Island of Z tra, a Catholic priest has been unfrocked and sentenced to three day's imprisonment for having spoken disrespectfully of Viet Ir Emmanuel in a sermon. The population of Forden Union, which includes Welshpool, Churchstoke, Montgomery, &c., has de- creased by some 2.000. The decrease in the borough of Welshpool is believed to be about 300. At a meeting of the Northumberland coal-owners, in Newcastle, on Saturday, it was determined, owing to the diminished output of coal, to ask the men to accept a reduction of 3i per cent, in wages John William Elwe", described as a gentleman, was remanded at Lymington on Tuesday, charged with the murder of his mother and the attempted murder of his sister.

In Llanidloes borough, it is said, there is a decrease in the population of over 800, and in the extra urban portion of the parish of about 300; while Llangurig and Trefeglwys are believed to show a decline (f about 400 each. Motion for a new trial in the Hurlbeit case has been formally entered by Miss Evelyn's counsel, on the grounds, amongst others, of misdirection by Mr Justice Cave, and that the verdict was against the weight of evidence. Ou Saturday a fight took place in Liverpool between two Welsh firemen, William Davies, of Taliesin, and John Williams, of Liverpool. Davies was taken to the Northern Hospital, and died from his injuries early on Monday morning. The South Wales and Monmouthshire Liberal Fed eration at Cardiff on Wednesday passed a resolution,, which, whilst re-endorsing the principle of free education, protested against any legislation which w Juld subsidise out of State funds schools not under public control. In Mr Patrick O'Brien's action for false imprison- ment and assault at Cardiff against Head-constable Mackenzie, of Cardiff, and Humphries, of the Irish police, the statement of claim has now been pre- sented. The plaintiff claims £1.000 damages from each defendant. Whildt going round his beat about midnight on Friday, a Liverpool police-constable saw a large piece of lead thrown from the roof of a warehouse in Naylor-street. Shortly afterwards a man named Conroy clambered down the rain spout, and seeing the constable he ran away, but was captured. On Saturday a miner named Joseph Jones, aged 32, who works at the Halkyn Mine, tell down the shaft from the 60 yards level to the 110 yards level, and received terrible injuries, from which he died three hours later. A doctor fortunately happened to be at the mine, and the poor fellow received every attention,, but it was seen from the first that his injuries must prove fatal. The deceased leaves a wife and two children. —A young man named George Wright Tagnton. aged- twenty-one, died at Portsmouth Hospital on Monday from a bullet wound inflicted under singular circum- stances. A cousin lately returned from Buenos Ayres to the deceased's mother. Oil Saturday night he was showing a group of young men a revolver, which, in the hands of the deceased's brother, exploded, fatally I injuring the deceased. A singular inquest was held at Stewaitstown, in the North of Ireland, on Tuesday evening, when Mr Porter, coroner for Omagh. held an inquest on the body of Dr. M'Gratb, coroner for the East and South I' Division of Tyrone. The evidenca showed that t'le deceased coroner died suddenly, and the jury found that his death was caused by an overdose oi a narcotic I taken presumably to induce sleep. On Tuesday it was reportid to Penrhyndeudraeth Board of Guardians that a family of five persons had come into the house in a most I itiahle condition. They were found in a room at Minfford, Llan- frothen, in a filthy state. There was only one bed for the whole five to lie on. The father, who died recently, had come home ill, went with his clothes to I be-d, and died there. Some of the Guardians expressed their opinion that it was a blessing that there was such a place as their house for the family to be taken to. On Friday arternoon a boy was playing on the parapet of the Victoria Embankment, when he fell into the river. A gentleman passing by at the time at once divested himself of his coat and vest, jumped into the water, and swam to the boy's assistance, but was unable to save him. The boy was drowned. Almost immediately afterwards a man committed suicide near the same spot by jumping into the wa!er after having tied some bricks round his neck. At Welshpool on Tuesday, William Lloyd Peate, Llanymynech, carpenter, was charged by his sister, Mary Peate. with stealing a 25 nets from her satchel, which she had placed in the cupboard in the parlour at her house, on Friday.

Lewis, Llandysilio, said he apprehended the prisoner at Oswestry on Monday, and recovered the money from him—Accused was remanded to Llandysilio Petty Sessions on May 2, and prosecutrix was bound over in j650 to prosecute. When the charge against Captain Verney, M.P., was resumed at Bow-street Police Court, London, on Friday, it was stated for the prosecution that fresh evidence would be brought against him, part of which would prove that prisoner had been known by the name of Wilson. In further examination, Miss Baskett said she recognised prisoner by his walk when he limped. The case was again adjourned. A Bavarian paper announces the marriage of an actress at present engaged at a theatre in Bamberg to Prince Joseph Rohan, great nephew of the old reigning Prince Camille, who is now nienty-one. Between Prince Joseph and the title there is only one brother, Alain, married to Princess Auersperg, who has no sons. Prince Joseph's grandmother was Princess Stephanie Croy-Dulmen, his mother Countess Waldstein-Wartenl)erg, his first wife a Countess Pejacvics. Prince Joseph is forty-seven. At Budapesth a post-office official, in a sudden fit of insanity has murdered five persons—his wife, mother-in-law, and three children. The man himself has disappeared, but there are reasons for supposing that he has drowned himself in the Danube. He must have surprised his victims in their sleep. A hatchet was the only weapon found. The madman left a letter in which he said he had done everything qu!ft!y. for if they had "creameo," says the letter, ?"I *Fth'v ..uid havo died. I will now take my own life." Near the letter lay his wedding ring and watch. A fog of great density prevailed along the North Wales Coast on Wednesday, necessitating the con- stant sounding of foghorns and discharge of signal guns. At the North Stack Station* where a gun was fired at intervals of ten minute", a serious explosion occurred, a five-pound bag of powder becoming acci- dentally ignited. Mr Harvey, an officer who has for many years held the post of principal of the stition under the Trinity Board. was severely huit, and the doctor who attends him fears that he will not recover I from his injuries. The noise of the explosion was heard same miles away.

MOLD AND DENBIGH RAILWAY —The half-yearly general meeting of the Mold and Denbigh Junction Railway Company was held last week at the offices, Pal mere toii-build in go, London, E.C., Mr P. p, Pen- nant occupying the chair.—The Chairman moved the adoption of the report and accounts, and sail the proportion of the traffic receipts due to the company showed a small decrease, owing mainly to the in- clement weather in :Nov. and Deo., and to a strike at the Bailey Hill Colliery. The figures were 23,5M. against £3,705 in the corresponding period of last year. The directors recommended a payment at the rate of £3 per cent. per annum on account of interest due Oil debenture stock B," being at the same rate as before. —General Beville seconded the motion, which was carried.—Mr Pennant, the retiring director, was re- elected.—Mr Henry Johnson was appointed auditor, in the place of Mr John Newton, deceased. THE CHARGE AGAINST A CURATE. -A Maidenhead on Tuesday, the Rev. Augustine J amei Pulling, curate of St. Peter's. Cranborne. Winkfield, was charged on remand with indecently assaulting Emma Jane Beare, aged fifteen. The girl, who is respectable looking, said sbe went to the parish schools, where the defendant taught her and others Scripture lessons. On seven different occasions the defendant had been improperly Intimate with her. The first time was in I Devil's-lane, where he asked her to go with him, and aftel wards told her not to breathe a word to anyone. 1 Three times they had met at an unoccupied dwelling at Meadows Croft, once at defendant's house, and once at her house. On one occasion defendant gave I her two shillings, and twice told her to say nothing about the matter, lest they should both be taken to prison. Defendant asked her at the Sunday school what her age was. and she told him fifteen. Crost3- examined she said she never offered any resistance to the defendant's overtures. The father said that offers had been made by defendant through his father and brother to marry his daughter, but that he had refused. The accused was committed for trial, and was allowed bail as before—himself in £1,000, and two sureties in 21,000. He was removed in custody, one of the previous sureties declining to renew his responsibility.
I VALE OF CLWYD OBSERVATIONS.…
I VALE OF CLWYD OBSERVATIONS. There is great dissatisfaction as to the candidates permitted to compete for the Griffiths Scholarships at the Grammar School. The examination affecti very considerably the popularity of the Bchool. Ratepayers are inquiring why the School Board members evinced so much interest in the laet election of governors. They wonder why they should be put to the expense of nearly 24 to parade three candidates when the election was a foregone conclusion. I Strange that such lively interest should be manifested, and that such importance should be given to the election when the schools are for months with- out a visit from tne members. The winning of a 21s grant was paraded as against personal appearance, good address, and wide ex- perietice. I was not aware that the Board was a money making concern. I thought it was established' for the education and culture of the town children. Some of the members have yet to learn that in- finitely more than mere A B C is learnt from the fcchoolmistress. Manners, speech, and personal smartness are all inculcated unconsciously by the governess. Denbigh is aglow with improvements, and will soon become modernised. But how unfortunate our local legislators have not been steadily improving the town for years, and avoid one generation of the rate- payers having all the burden to bear. Waterloo House is being demolished, and a better thoroughfare will be the result. It iø pleasing to note that Captain Wynne Edwarde, notwithstanding the rebuffs of the antiquarians, is earrying out the schemes of improvements commenced by the ex.Mayor. The advent of a district nurse into Denbigh is wel. comed by all. The Vale seems more than ever to be determined to enjoy out-door sports. Already bicycles, racquets, and bats, are frequently met, and fixtures are arranged for matches. The roads are somewhat a draw-back for wheeling, the severe frost having prevented surveyors from completely laying stones. It a a thousand pities i>eui>Igh doen not possess a lake, and it's tirange an arti6cial one was not formed seeing there are so many places so admirably adapted for the formation of one. No one could present a greater boon to the town than to present it with a lake. Failing that, a horse brush for the streets would be greatly appreciated. Consequent upon the dry weather the ratepayers are being transformed into dust carts, to which they ob- ject. Dear old Capel Mswr is at last waking up to a sense of its responsibility as the largest place of worship in the Vale. The congregation will be immensely pleased that a school-room is to be built, and the pews will at last be fit to sit in. And-dare I mention it-an organ is likely to be provided-and the splendid old chapel is goin,, to be cleaned-and properly lit. Truly the spirit of ad- vancement and improvement is abroad.
NORTH WALES MINERS AND THE…
NORTH WALES MINERS AND THE AGENCY QUESTION. THE EXECUTIVE CRITICISED. Under the presidency of Mr George Rowley, Black Park, a joint meeting of the colliers of Prees- gweene, Brynkinalt, and Black Park was held at the Bridge Inn, Chirk, on Saturday, to hear the views of the four candidates for the post of agent for the North Wales district. Of the four candidates two only attended, viz Mr John Ed wards, Plas Madoc, and Mr loan Williams, Groes. After a few introductory remarks, the Chairman called upon Mr John Edwards, who in a fluent and telling speech, dwelt at some length on the advantages likely to ensue from the appoint- ment of an agent, the duty of every collier to join the federation, the Miners' Eight Hours Bill, and other questions, and concluded by severely criticising the Executive Committee for refusing to postpone the polling for the appointment of agent so as to enable himself and some of the other candidates to become known to the co!liers through- out the district.—Mr loan Williams was then called, and in a long and eloquent speech touched upon most of the burning questions of the day re- lating to the interests of miners.—Both speakers were very cordially received, and were requested to withdraw whilst the meeting discussed the qmstion as to which of the two should have the joint support of the three collieries.—After a prolonged discussion it was decided that three representatives from each of the five collieries forming the Ruabon district, viz.. Preesgweene, Brynkinalt, Black Park, PI as Kynaston, and W ynustay, should meet at Ruabon to settle the matter, a.nd whichever of the two candidates was then selected the five collieries above named pledged themselvos to give him their undivided support. On Tuesday night a meeting of delegates repre- senting the collieries in the district, was held at the Bridge End Inn, Ruabou. Mr J. Rowley presided, and after a protracted discussion it was finally decided that only one candidate should be run, viz., Mr loan Williams, check weighman, VVynnstay Colliery. This decision was to be made known to the men the next day at the various collieries, they being urged to support his Candida-, ture. —————
WALES AND THE CENSUS.
WALES AND THE CENSUS. Last week our Mold correspondent reported as to the difficulties encountered in the Hawarden Union owing to the census form that had been sent to the residents. The following letter has been received from the Registrar-General by Mr S. Smith, M.P. Census Office, Ciiarles-street, Whitehall, London, S.W., April 15th, 1891. DEAR SIR,—With reference to your letter of the 11th inst., addressed to Mr Ritchie, enclosing a com- munication from Air Joseph Griffiths, of Caergwrle, I may poit.t out that this has been the first census at which any attempt has been made to enumerate the Welsh-speaking population. In miking preparations for this enumeration I found it necessary to coufiue the inquiry to the LTnion and Registration Counties of Wales and Alonmouthshire, for all of which the probable number of schedules in tha Welsh language that would be required was estimated by the local registration officers, and was sent from this office for distribution. I had, however, no means for estimating tha number of the Welsh-siieaking population in certain parishes that form part of English Registra- tion Counties. Hence some few of the Welsh- speaking population residing in Euglish Registration Counties, as in the parishes referred to by your correspondent, which belong to the Registration County of Chester, may not have received the special schedule prepared for use in Wales, and I fear it is I now too late to rectify the omission.— Yours faith- fully, LIRIDGES r. HENNIKER, Registrar-General. Samuel Smith, EqQ M.P., 7, Delahay street, Loudon, S. W.
SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST IA…
SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A PARLIAMENTARY CANDIDATE. At Croydon Police Cotirt on Tuesday, Wm. Allan Fyffa, M.A., Bursar of University College, Oxford, and a candidate for the Devizes Division of Wiltshire, failed to surrender to his bail to answer a serious charge of assaulting a youth in a railway carriage be. tween Croydon and ltedhill. Medical evidence stated that the defendant was suffering from a eevcre incised wound in the neck, that he was in a. very critical state,, and unable to leave his bed.-Air Edridge^ solicitor for defendant, said it was proper he should mention the names of gentlemen who were prepared to speak to the literary ani social charactsr of the accused. They were the Dean of Westminster, Professor Jowett, Sir Horace Davey, Sir George Grove, Mr Benson, London stipendiary magistrate, Mr Robin- son, editor of the Daily Ifews, and others.-I.).-c. Henry G. Walker, 5, Marlowes-road, Kensington, lad he was called to the defendant on Monday, and found him sintering rrora a severe incised wound in the neck. It was impossible to judge of his chance of re- covery. He would not be able to attend court for at least three weeks.—Air Scales, solicitor for the rail- way company, said the general manager had decided that it was not within the duty of the Company to institute a prosecution, but he was instructed to offer facilities for calling evidence, whether on behalf ot the prosecation or defence.—Ale Edridge having men- tioned the question of bail, the chief clerk said he did not see how they could accept bail, the accused not being present.—The Chairman (Ald. Hobbs) said the case would he adjourned until the 26th of May, and said the question of forfeiting the recognisances would be reserved until that time. Meantime the Bench would consider the question of issuing a warrant to secure defendant's appearance.

SHARPERS AND WELSH ERS AT TARPORLEY STEEPLECHASES. At Eddiebury petty sessions, on Monday, a sos- picious-lookin g character, named John Mallon, was charged with frequenting the Tarporley race- course on the 15th, April with intent, and was Sentenced lu a month'o imprioonmant. Willion* Jones and James Crowe were accused of obtaining jEl from a Cheshire farmer with intent to cheat and defraud. In the saddling paddock, on Tarporley racecourse, on the loth April, John Walley, farm- er, of Stack, laid El upon a horse called Prince Henry, in regard to which Jones was offering even money. As his price was lower than that of the other betting men, Walley watched him, and as the horse drew near the winning po-t and people shouted tlial-. the favor.tj, Prince Henry, was winning, Jones removed his taU hat and decamped. When the farmer attempted to follow several men jostled him, and Crowe tried to throw him. A cry of "Stop, welsher," however, was raised, and the prisoners were arrested. Jones said he was formerly an undertaker, and by his bookmaking misfortunes had lost between £900 and 1:1,000. Mr James Tomkinson held that as betting was il- legal the magistrates were not compelled to protect such people as the prosecutor. The prisoners re- funded the farmer his sovereign, and were ordered to pay the cost*. Two Liverpool hawkers, named Edward Woodburn and John Wilcock, who were seen opening carriage doors and attempting to pick pockets for half an hour, were both sentenced to seven days' hard labor.
IMR OSBORNE MORGAN, M.P.,…
MR OSBORNE MORGAN, M.P., AND WELSH HOME RULE. Writing to Mr Hall, secretary of the South Wales Liberal Federation, on the subject of Home Rule for Wales, Mr Osborne Morgan, M.P., claims that the question has made a distinct ad vance. This is not," he says, a matter for surprise, as on all subjects, especially affecting the Principality the members for Wales in a far stricter sense than the Scotch and Irish representatives vote solid, and this is due to the genuine accord of sentiment. That so overwhelming a preponderance of opinion should bo overborne by the votes of men who know and care nothing about Welsh juestions is galling to Welshmen, and it is, therefore, importaut to consider the steps best calculated to abate an evil already sowing seeds of discontent and disloyalty. The true solution of this problem is to be found in a National Couucil for Wales. sitting in the Princi- pality, and composed of members of the County Councils of Wales and Monmouthshire. lie would give to such Couucil such legislative and adminis- trative powers enabling it to deal with, among other subjects affecting Wales an(I Moomoutheiiire, the Established Church, its statutes and endow- ments tenure and transfer of land, mining royalties, wayleaves and cognate subjects, Queen's royalties, railway rates and traffic, control of rivers, including fishery rates right of common and way, education (higher, intermediate, and primary), and the licensing question. The relations of such body to the Imperial Parliament, and the checks, if any, to be placed upon its action, are subjects for ulterior consideration. The scheme outlined might, of course, be sensibly modified by the exchange of views.
RETURN OF THE QUEEN.
RETURN OF THE QUEEN. The departure of the Queen from Grasse on.- Tuesday was the occasion of a remarkable display of enthusiasm on the part of the inhahitants. The whole population was in the streets, and at the- railway station were gathered all the local authorities and the chief members of the British colony. Tne Queen personally thanked the Mayor for the sympathetic reception which she had re- ceived, and handed him sixty pounds for the benefit of the poor of the town.
