I General News. I The report of the Opium Commission is adverse to the proposalt for the suppression of the opium traffic. Viscount Duncannon, who was secretary to Mr Peel during the whole term of his Speakership, has sent in his resignation. Sir Bernhard Samuelson, M,P. for Banburv, has informed his constituents that owing to ill-health he will not seek re-election. The returns of the Volunteer force for last year show that the total number enrolled was 231,328. of whom 224,525 were efficients. The death has occurred, at the Zoological Gardens, of the magnificent ostrich presented to the gardens some time since by the Queen. At Potterno. near Devizes, a pardener of six^y-five- named Butler, has been found with his hea l battered in, and expired shortly after discovery. ?lIr Edward Hutchinson, a Liverpool merchant, died suddenly on Wednesday at Colwyn Bay. He was a prominent member of the NVeslevan body. The women's ward of the Oxford County Lunatic Asylum, at Littlemore, was on Monday morning destroyed by fire, but the inmates were rescued. The Board of Trade has appointed a Departmental Committee to inquire into the question of the im- portation of foreign prison-made goods into this country. The Home Secretary on Saturday ordered the release of two Northampton shoe hands who had been sentenced to thirty days' imprisonment for fol- lowing non-unionists. An old slgrienitural I-Lbourer named George Pettitt has been burned to death at Wollnston, near Wel- lingborough, through a hedge under which he was lighting his pipe catching fire. Visconnt Valentia (C) and Dr. John Fletcher Little (L) were nominated on Tuesdav, for the Oxford vacancy and Mr F. W. Wilson (L) and Mr R. T. Gnrdon (LBT) for the vacant seat in Mid- Norfolk. On Saturday night n. Plymonth train left the metals near Bodmin, on the Great Western Railway. Both of the engines capsized, and one rolled down an embankment. About thirty persons are reported to have sustained injuries. Mr George W. Harris, manager in succession of the Alexandra and Shakespeare Theatres, died on Wednesday at his residence in Edge-lane, Liverpool, after an illness which dated from the production of the last Christmas pantomime at the Shakespeare Theatre. The result of the poll for the position of secretary to the Amalgamated Society of Engineers was made known on Wednesday. The late secretary, Mr J. Anderson, received 12.910 votes the late assistant secretary. Mr G. N. Barnes, 11,603; and Mr H. Barton, 759. The Finance Committee of the Swansea Corpora- tion hrive passed a resolution to the effect that in vie%y of the sit&gnrltion of trade in the borough the salaries of the Corporation officials shonld be reduced 10 per cent. The estimates for the year were also considerably reduced. The Governor of Monnstir, in Macedonia, has been dismissed by the Porte on the representation that he was responsible for executions and injustice, and that hit; continuance in office would provoke people to the commission of acts which might Ciune serious embar- rassment to the Porte. The fine weather which favoured Easter Monday in London induced-vast crowds of holiday makers to visit the pnblic parks and open spaces in and aronnd the metropolis. The mnseums and picture zalleries were also largely patronised, and at night nearly all the theatres were extremely well attended. Professor James Dwight Dana, the eminent mineralogist and geologist, has died of heart failure. He had been Professor of Natural Historv and Geo- logy at Tale College since 1855, and was a Fellow of the Royal Society. London, as well as membor of the French Academy and of other scientific bodies in Europe. Serious fires were reported on Wednesday, one occurring at Messrs Allison and Co.'s sawmills, Grimsby, where damage was done to the amount of £3,000. and n.nother the timber yard of Messrs Harland and W olff, shipbuilders, Belfast, over an acre of whose premises, containing many valuable stacks of timber, was devastated by the flames. In protesting against recent Conservative attacks upon Mr Chamberlain, Sir W. Hart Dvke writes that, as a Conservative whip for the past twelve years, he is in a position to gauge the opinion of Conservative members, and he believes that one opinion pervades the party, namely, that during the last nine years Mr Chamberlain has with the truest loyaltv and great ability, both in and out of Parliament. supported the cause of the Union, and has gained the fullest con- fidence of the Conservative leaders. In a trial at Siena an amusing scene occurred the other day. One of the witnesses was a very pretty servant maid of the name of Giovannina Galardi. On entering the witness box, she wns received with signs of admiration by the jury, by counsel, and by all present. She stood facing the judge, who said to her, "I beg you, my pretty girl, to turn also towards the jury, as I do not wish it to be said that I alone have the privilege of admiring your beauty." Great laughter followed this remark. Oil leaving the wit- ness box at the end of her examination she was fol- lowed by murmurs of admiration. The Spectator of Saturday remarks :-It hardly seems to be understood by some of the Conservative members what it is that pertains to the position of allies. The keystone of the political arch is Mr Chamberlain, and if he be driven-as he might, we suspect, be easily driven—to retire from the cam- paign, the great body of Unionist Liberals in the Midlands would scon be dissolved into its elements. Alliances need generosity and mutual forbearance and without generosity and mutual forbearance on the part of the Conservatives, the invaluable help of the Liberal Unionists will be lost to the cause of our national unity and greatness. On Saturday night the Earl of Kimberley addressed a Liberal meeting at North Walaham, in East Nor- folk. Their opponents, he observed, spoke of the Government as moribund and condemned, but a Government which had obtained from the House of Commons a very large sitin of money for the purpose of strengthening the navy and making it so strong that the safety of this country should never be en- dangered by any complications that might occur in the politics of the world, passed the Welsh Disestab- lishment Bill by a majority exceeding forty, obtained i he second reading of the Irish Land Bill without a rision, and introduced the Local Option Bill, hard. deserved to be spoken of in those terms. A number of severe earthquake shocks were felt throughout Southern Austria, on Monday, causing the people in many towns to leave their homes panic- stricken and canip out in the open. The worst effects were felt at Laibach, the capital of Carniola, where nearly every building was damaged or destroyed, and where several people were killed and ma.ny injured. Shocks were also felt in some parts of Italy, and at Venice the visitors left the hotels and slept in the squares. Later accounts of the earthquake in Austria show that the effects were in some respecta more serious than was at first supposed. A Vienna correspondent states that images of saints have fallen from their pedestals, and a ato.tue was turned half- round by the disturbance. Four more earthquake shocks were felt on Wednesday at Laibach, where the inhabitants are still camping out, and were great dis- tress prevails. The third annual conference of the Independent Labour party was opened on Monday at Newcastle- on-Tyne. Mr Keir Hardie, M.P.. presided. The report of the National Administrative Council narrated the progress made during the past year, especially through the part taken in local and Parlia- mentary elections. Twenty-one Independent Labour candidates for various Parliamentary constituencies bad already been approved, and other nominations awaited endorsement. It was stated that the party had now 35,000 paying members. A resolution was passed sympathising with the operatives locked out in the boot ani shoe trade. On Wednesday it was agreed, after the proposal of many amendments, to confirm a clause in the proposed pledge of member- ship, that members should vote in local elections as branches of the party might determine, and in the case of Parliamentary elections, as a conference convened for the purpose might decide. At the sitting of the Good Templars' Grand Lodge at Cambridge on Tuesday, Mr J. Malins, C.C., Grand Chief Templar, presided. The morning was devoted chiefly to routine business. At the evening sitting, resolutions were passed congratulating Mr Joseph Malins upon the completion of twenty-five years' service as Grand Chief Templar, rejoicing that the Government had introduced the local veto bill, and assuring the Government of hearty support, pledging the support of the Lodge to only those candidates for Parliament who are prepared to curb the liquor traffic rejoicing that about 500 Good Templars have been elected members of newly-formed parish and district councils, and regretting that efforts are being made to municipalise the liquor traffic. The follow- ing officers were elected at the opening of the confer- ence on Wednesday :-Grand Chief Templar, County Councillor Malins; Grand Councillor, Mr Gay Hayler; Vice-Templar, Mrs Walker; Superintendent of Juvenile Templars, Councillor Varley; Electoral Superintendent, Mr J. Martin Skinner; Secretary, Mr William Sutherland Treasnrer, ]Nfr F. R. Harris; Chaplain, the Rev. C. J. Reckelley. The secretary's report and statement of accounts and balance sheet were passed. At a special session of the International Supreme Lodge the highest degree of the Order was conferred on eleven qualified candidates. The annual conference of the National Union of Teachers waa opened on Monday afternoon at Man- chester. The proceedings beaan with a public reception, presided over bv Sir J. F. Harwood, and attended by the Mayor of Salford, the Bishop of Manchester, and the educational leaders of the city. The Bishop said the work of the teachers was most excellent, and it was done with diligence and a con- scientiousness above all praise. On Tuesday after some discussion, it was resolved that the scheme con- tained in the report of the Departmental Committee on Superannuation of Teachers offered a suitable basis for legislation. On Wednesday considerable time was taken up in discussing the education code. It was pointed out that a code which made it im- possible to arrange the education of a particular district to suit the needs of the locality and of the children was not a rational and working code. Amongst the resolutions passed was one in favour of the withdrawal of the permission given by the new code to employ unqualified women teachers in boys' schools. The conference unanimously passed a resolution approving the superannuation scheme formulated by the departmental committee as a suitable basis for legislation, and urging the Govern- ment to give effect thereto this session. Resolutions were also adopted in favour of the incorporation in the next issue of the labour code of a compulsory form of agreement between managers and teachers specifying conditions which would prevent the dis- r.iiss:ti rfothe teacher except for a reasonable and assigned cause, and that where voluntary schools were tal¡en over by school boardg the teachers of such schools should be taken over on at least as favourable terms as they all eidy enjoyetf|

Ecclesiastical. I Owing to an order issued by the Sub-Prefect of Toulon to suppress the Salvation Army on the ground of its knee-drills," being manifestations of a religion not recognised by the State, the barracks there have been closed. An address signed by 250 of his parishioners has just been presented to the Rev. R. W. Corbet, M.A., rector of Stoke-upon-Tern, in acknowledgment of his noble generosity and habitual kindness towards his parishioners, irrespective of creed or social position. The Rev. John Price, Congregational minister, Wis- tanswick, made the presentation. The death is announced of the Rev. Ellis T. Davies, of Abergele, in his 74th year. He was one of the oldest ministers in North Wales, and the second student at Bala Independent College, from which he was ordained in 1847. For many years he was secre- tary of the Congregational Union for the counties of Flint and Denbigh, and was a frequent contributor to the Welsh press.

The reply of the Archbishop of York to the memorial sent by a number of resident parishioners of Christ Church, Doncaster, complaining of certain new practices in the church, is as follows Dear Sirs,—After careful investigation, I have now been able to remove the chief causes of offence which called forth your memorial. The shrine, as you have termed it, of the Virgin Ma.ry no longer exists; the statuette (in itself an admissible ornament of the church) has now been removed from the vicinity of the small altar which stood in front of it, so that there is no longer any direct communication between them. I have also required that the couse- era.ted bread and wine shall not be reserved in what has been called the tabernacle upon the altar, and this practice has accordingly been abandoned. In both these cases there was an inevitable tendency to develop very serious and grievous error in doctrine as well as in practice, and you did well to make them matters of complaint. I have to thank you for calling my attention to them. But the other matters of which you complain, although not enjoined or pro- vided for by the direction of the Church, are not strictly contrary to the teaching of the Holy Scrip- tures or the Book of Common Prayer, and I, there- fore, do not think it necessary, whatever my own personal feelings may be. to require their removal. I a.m happy to say that the vicar has loyally yielded to my directions, and I earnestly trust that the matter ma.y now rest. From all I have been able to learn the vicar, along with the assistant clergy, is endeavouring to fulfil the requirements of the Book of Common Prayer more completely than is done in many other churches, and to provide his people from day to day with all the means of grace committed to his stewardship, whatever difference of opinion may exist as to some of the methods employed in those ministrations. I, therefore, venture to hope that in the spirit of true Christian charity you will endeavour to put the most favourable construction on the action of your clergy.—Yours very faithfully, (Signed) "Wl^EEt-M EBOR.

The report of the Committee of the Association was received, which included recomwiendations to the Association to pass resolutions on the Armenian Atrocities and the Local Veto Bill, and that atten- tion should be called to the Rev. William James's handbook on the Pastoral Epistles.—It was decided that tho Rev. W. Thomas, Pwllheli, and Mr R. Rowlands should represent the Association at the annual meeting of the North Wales Congregational Union.—It wail reported that the next meetings of the Association would be held at Dolgelley, on June 19th, 20th, and 21st.-The Churches at Bangor asked to have their annual ordination at their asso- ciation, but the Churches at Dolgelley having already made their arrangements, and the Congregational Union having consented to postpone their meeting for that purpose, it was agreed that the ordination should take place at Dolgelley. The following names were submitted for ordination:—Arfon, Mr J. E. Hughes, B.A., Siloh, Carnarvon Vale of Conwav, Mr R. Roberts, Llanrwst; Vale of Clwvd, Mr W. Morris Jones, Dyserth; Messrs R. H.

Wheldon, to express the thanks of the Association to Mr Hugh Walter Davies, Newcastle-on-Tyne, and Miss Mary Eliza- beth Davies, Oringham, Ifor the hn.ndsome gift of a. plot of ground for the erection of a manse at Gwyddelwern. The Secretary read a number of messages from the Monthly Meetings with regard to the proposed new rules of the English Causes Fund. The Messages of the Monthly Meetings showed that at present there was no unanimity of feeling on the matter. The Rev. Lewis Ellis, secretary to the English Causes Fund, reported that the Committee wished the Association to consider a plan for uniting the English Causes Fund with other funds of the Connexion, and that the com- mittee having given some consideration to the sliding scale proposed, came to the conclusion that it would swell the expenditure, and that it would be best to leave the question until a more suitable time.—The discussion of the proposal of the Arfon Monthly Meeting to unite the English Causes Fund with the other funds was, on the motion of Mr R. Rowland, referred to a committee to be appointed by the Com- mittees of the Weak Causes Home Mission of the English Causes.—The Rev. Lewis Ellis, secretary of the English Causes Committee, read the report of the committee. The report recommended that the Rev. E. Jerman, late of Wrexham, and now of Breeze Hill, Liverpool, should be appointed secretary to the fund, and this was adopted.—The Rev. Lewis Ellis thanked the Association in warm terms for the trust they had reposed in him. and for the invariable sup- port they had given him.—On the motion of Mr wheldon, the report was adopted.—The Secretary reported that the Rev. Eliag Jones, Newtown; Messrs E. Griffith, Dolgelley and William Jones, Birming- ham, were nominated members of the Balit College Committee for their respective Monthly Meetings, and the namea were adopted.—The Rev. Josiah Jones, Flint, was appointed director of the English Causes Committee for the next few years.-A mes- sage from the Salop and Montgomery Presbytery recommending that the Bala scholarship examina- tion should be held in June or July, was referred to the College Committee.—The Arfon Monthly Meeting asked permission to send six representatives to the quarterly Association, in addition to ex- officio members of the Association.—Mr R. Rowland said the representatives of Arfon in that case would form a small association themselves.—Permission was granted, after a short discussion.—It was stated by the Secretary that several ministers were about to visit America, and letters of introduction were fiven !n the Rev. Thomas Grey, Birkenhead Owen FomkM, Pontrobert; H. W. Griffith, Rhosesmor; and W. Rhyle Davies, London.—The meeting then terminated. In the evening a meeting of the Association was held in the Welsh Wesleyan Chapel, where the Rev. Francis Jones, Abergele, opened a discussion on The keeping of the Sabbath," and several others took part.—Memorial notices were given of the Rev. William Hughes, Tabernacle, Ty'nygongl E. Davies, Portmadoc; R.

Wrexham and Newtown met in the final of the Welsh Cnp competition, at Welshpool, on Monday, and Newtown won by three goals to two. This is the second occasion upon which Newtown have won the cup, the first time being in 1879, when Wrexham were rather unexpectedly defeated by two goals to one. History repeated itself on the present occasion, with the exception, however, that a very close game was expected. The ground at Welshpool had been got into good condition, and the day was gloriously fine. Indeed, players and spectators would have been more com- fortable if the heat ha.d been somewhat less than it was. The Gate" was a record one, the amount taken being about JE140. Under two hundred and fifty spectators travelled with the special train from Wrexham, so that it will be seen the great majority of the on-lookers were from Newtown and neighbour- hood. Newtown played with their faces to the sun for the first forty-five minutes, and were the first to be daxgerous. Then the Wrexham men began to find their feet and scored. They still kept up the pressure, but from a bad goal kick Newtown were able to equalise, somewhat luckily. Wrexham scored again, and then an unfortunate incident occurred. Just- before half-time, Lea sent a long shot into the Newtown goal, and in the scrimmage which followed the Newtown goalkeeper deliberately kicked Harri- son. He was ordered off the field by the referee, and Newtown thus played the remainder of the game with ten men. The incident recalls to one's mind a similar one which occurred when Glossop and Wrexham played in the English Cup earlier in the season, and Wrex- ham were beaten on that occasion. We think that Wrexham lost rather than gained bv Goodwin being sent off. In the second half the Wrexham forwards were being continually pulled up for being off-side." In fact, the referee seemed to have got so accustomed to blowing his whistle when the Wrexham men were off-side that he did so when they were not. Wrexham led at half-time by two goals to one, but about ten minutes after crossing over the score was again equalised. Then Newtown took the lead for the first time in the game, and nothing further being scored, Newtown won by three goals to two. On the day's play, the better team won. The Newtown men played as if they could not be beaten, and kept at it from start to finish. To an impartial onlooker, however, it was clear .that the Wrexham men showed better football all round, and had they been to the slightest extent favoured by fortune at the opening of the second half, we fancy thev would have won pretty comfortably. Harper played a safe game at back, and Worthen and Chapman were prominent amongst the half- backs, but the latter played a very rough game. Mytton did not do much during the first half, but in the second, after Lea. had been hurt, he played brilliantly, and won the game for his side, both goals coming from runs made by him. A. W. Pryce-Jones also played well, but the other forwards did not greatly distinguish themselves. On the Wrexham side. Ball did some clever work. and could not be blamed for any of the goals scored against him. Ellis and Samuels played well the first half, but fell off somewhat in the second. The halves played a fine game up to half-time. Shortly after re-starting, howeve-, Lea. was badly hurt, and was practically no use afterwards. Harrison was brought to centre-half, and the taam seemed to be thoroughly disorganised. Harrison and Lewis were the best of the forwards. T. Owen did not plav up to form at all, and it would have been better if Trainer had not been played. Before leaving the match, we feel bound to refer to. the conduct of the spectators, which was disgraceful. The crowd was certainly the worst behaved we have ever seen at a football match, and there would have been a scene if Wrexham had won. The Welsh Cup has now been won five times by the Druids, five times by Chirk, three times by Wrexham, twice by Newtown, and once by Oswestry, Bangor, and Shrewsbury Town. Druids and Flint re-play their semi-final in the Charity Cup competition at Wrexham on Monday night, the kick off being at a quarter to six. Wrexham play their last match in the Welsh League at Caergwrle, on Monday. The record of the Wrexham Club for this season is:-35 matches played, 25 won, 7 lost, 3 drawn; 136 goals scored, against 52. The Charity Cup semi-final on Saturday produced a good game, and some curious decision by the referee. In the first half Mr Gough appeared to give the Druids a goal, but after a protest by the Flint members, reversed his decision and gave a goal kick. Then the goal given to the Druids was clearly off- side.

LLANDUDNO SWIFTS V. TRANMERE ROVERS.—Played at Llandudno on Saturday. The Swifts led at the interval by three goals to nil, and finally won by seven to nil. WEDNESDAY CHARITY CUP.—Wrockwardine Wood and Wolverhampton Presbyterians played in the final of this Cup Competition at Wellington on Saturday, when each team scored once, and they will consequently have to meet again, GREAT WESTER-, RAILWAY SERVANTS V. DR. L. ROBERTS'B TEAM.—A match in aid of the Great Western Railway Widows and Orphans' Fund was played on Wynnstav Park on Good Friday afternoon, and ended in a win for the doctor's team by seven goals to three. LLANDUDNO SWIFTS T. EYERTON COMBINATION.,— Played at Llandudno on Monday before a large crowd. The Swifts scored soon after the start, and led at the interval by one goal to nil. The home team again scored, and Everton got one from a corner. The Swifts thus won by two goals to one. COMPETITION AT MOLD.-Tlie third annual football competition took place at Mold on Monday, and attracted a large number ef spectators. Nine teams competed, two sets of silver medals being offered to the members of the two winning teams. The medals were awarded to Westminster Rovers and Mold Red Stars. DR. LAWTON ROBERTS'S TEAM V. ROYAL WELSH FUSILIEBS.—Some few months ago a youth named Wright, a member of the doctor's team was injured whilst playing in a match, and on Saturday a match for the benefit of the injured player took place on Wynnstay Park. The match was unfortunately marred by a serious accident to the captain of the home team, John Roberts, the son of Dr. Lawton Roberts, who had his arm broken. The home team won by one goal to nil. DRUIDS T, LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN, BIRKEN- rmAD.-The return match between these teams was Elayed on Good Friday morning, on Wynnstay Park, before a large gate. The Druids were beaten at Birkenhead by five goals to two, but on this occasion they won by two goals to one. The teams were :— Druids E. Thomas, goal C. Thomas and J. Valentine, backs D. Evans, G. O. Postle, and G. Owen, half-backs; James Vaughan, Butler, T. Davies, James Davies and E. Vaughan, forwards. Birkenhead London and North-Western Dickens, goal; Finney and Clarke, backs; J. Robson, R.

WELSH C U P. I FINAL TIE. I WREXHAM v. NEWTOWN. The final tie in the Wales and Border Counties Association Football Cup competition, was played at Welshpool on Monday, the finalists being Wrexham and Newtown. The weather was gloriously fine, and there were about 5,000 spectators. The ground looked in first class condition, and a fast game was looked forward to. Both clubs were represented by their best teams. Newtown won the toss and Trainer started for Wrexham. Harper returned and A. W. Pryce-Jones worked the ball behind. A free kick for Newtown near the Wrexham goal was then taken by Chapman, who put the ball high over the bar. Newtown were having the best of matters from another free kick, Ball was called upon to save. Harrison made a fine run, but finished up by kicking behind. A corner for Newtown was taken by Parry, and was cleared. Another corner followed, but that was also got away. A free kick for Wrexham in mid field was well placed, and Harrison rushed the ball through, scoring the first goal for Wrexham, about five minutes after the start. Directly after re-starting, Wrexham nearly scored again from a free kick. B. Lewis made a fine burst, and his final shot was well kept out by Good- win. A corner for Wrexham, after good passing by Harrison and Davies, was well placed and a score nearly followed, the ball eventually finding its way behind. At the other end Pairy had a good chance, but kicked behind. The the ball was weakly kicked off from goal, and A. W. Pryce-J ones securing he sent across to his brother, who had little difficulty in equalising the score, amidst great cheering. A corner forWrexham was badly placed and the danger was averted, but directly afterwards a free kick was awarded Wrexham near the Newtown goal. Lea took the kick and placed the ball beautifully. The leather bobbed about in front of goal, and eventually Harper put the ball through his own goal, scoring the second goal for Wrexham. A free kick for Newtown in midfield was followed by a similar advantage for Wrexham. T. Owen was prominent with a fine shot, the ball passing a little wide of the posts. A corner for Wrexham was not improved upon, and Mytton rushed away to the other end. Ball kicked away a long shot, and then hit away one from Worthen. Parry was well placed, when the whistle went for off-side." Trainer and his right wing put in some neat passing, Harrison finishing up the movement by kicking over the bar. The game was now slow, and both sides seemed to feel the effects of the heat. Newtown had a fine chance of scoring, but A. W. Pryce-Jones was wide of the mark. Lea sent a long shot into the Newtown goal. Goodwin was charged and he kicked Harrison. The referee stopped the game, and eventually ordered Goodwin off the field, his decision being received with loud hoots and yells. Townshend went into goal. The Wrexham forwards passed well, and Lewis shot wide. Wrex- ham pressed severely. A. W. Pryce Jcr.'s made a bb .?, for :re.. who came down heaTHy, and the game had to be suspended for some time. The interval was directly afterwards signalled with the score Wrexham two goals, Newtown one. After a long rest Mytton restarted for Newtown, who now played with the sun at their backs. The opening play was in midfield. Wrexham then started to press, but rarely got really dangerous, the forwards being pulled up time after time for off- side." Trainer shot wide, and at the other side Chapman was similarly erratic. Mytton made a dashing run and sent in a fine shot. Samuels met and headed over the bar. The corner was well placed, and a scrimmage in the Wrexham goal followed. The ball was rushed into the net, and the score was thus eqnalised amidst great cheering. On re-starting Wrexham again began to press. They were, however, unable to score, and Mytton broke away with a dashing run. Beeston, however, finally stopped him. JJirectly afterwards, however, Mytton was again seen making for the Wrexham goal at a great pace. He finally passed to W. E. Pryce-Jones, who shot, and Ball made a fine save. Townshend hit away a long shot, and Mytton, who was playing brilliantly, was again on the warpath. He eventually sent the ball to W. E. Pryce-Jones, who put New- town ahead, the ball striking the crossbar and going through. A corner for Wrexham was got awr1,y by W. E. Pryce-Jones, who was pulled up by Beeston. A corner fell to Newtown after a run by Mytton, but that was cleared, and then the Wrex- ham forwards were several times stopped by the whistle going for off-side," twice when it certainly seemed that the decision was a wrong int. A corner for Wrexham was placed behind by Lewis, r.nd then Harrison nearly equalised with a fine shot, Townshend iust saving. Mytton then took tho ball practically the whole length of the field and passed in front of goal to W. E. Pryce Jones, but he failed with the goal at his mercy, and Davies took the ball to the opposite end. The play for the remainder of the game was in the Newtown quarters, but Wrex- ham failed to score, and the final result was: Newtown, three goals; Wrexham, two. The following were the teams :—Newtown: Good- win, goal; Townshend and Harper, backs; Tucker, Chapman, and Worthen, half-backs; W. E. Prvce Jones and E. Morgan, right wing Parry and A. W. Pryce Jones, left wing; H. F. Mytton, centre. Wrex- ham: Bali, goal; Samuels and Ellis, backs; Hayes, Lea, and Beeston, half-backs; Lewis and Owen. right wing; Davies and Harrison, left wing; Trainer, centre. Linesmen, Messrs Edwards, Aberystwyth, and Cotton, Rhostyllen. Referee, Mr Brodio, Wolverhampton. At the conclusion of the game there was a scene of tremendous enthusiasm, and a large crowd gathered round the press stand on which the coveted cup temporarily rested. There was a great crush, and when Major Clayton, president of the Welsh Association, stepped forward to present the cup he was received with hearty cheers. As president, he said it was a pleasure and an honour to present the Winning team with the trophy, although it would be unbecoming of him to say anything as to the merits of the game. Whatever the decisions of the referee had been, he was pleased to know that each player loyally carried them out. (Cheers.) He congratulated the referee, the linesmen, and all who had taken part in the day's match. (Loud cheers.) The cup was then handed to Mr W. E. Pry co- Jones, the popular captain of the Newtown team, and when the cheers subsided he returned thanks to Major Clayton. He thought everyone would admit that on the day's play and with ten men the better team had wen. (Loud and prolonged cheers.) He thanked the Welshpool people for their hearty support and for their welcome, and expressed a hope that wc.s not the last time the Welsh final would be played at Welshpool. (Loud cheers.) When the Newtown team arrived home they were accorded a splendid reception.

THE WELSH JUNIOR CHALLENGE CUP. FINAL TIE. CAERGWRLE WANDERERS v. BANGOR RESERVE.— This tie was played at Flint, on Saturday. Bangor I showed up well at the start, and put the ball through their opponents' goal, but the point was not allowed. The Wanderers then pressed, but at half-time nothing had been scored. After changing ends, the Wanderers scored. A united and gallant effort by the Bangor players equalised the score, but the Wanderers scored again just before the finish, and thus won by two goals to one.—The cup was presented after the match to Mr Jones, captain of the Caergwrle team, by Mr E. J. Hughes, of Flint.
ISOAMES'S CHARITY CUP.
SOAMES'S CHARITY CUP. i TIE. SIMI-FINAL TIE. DRUIDS (HOLDERS) V. ±LINT.—This tie was played on Wrexham Racecourse, on Saturday. The ground was in grand condition, and the game was very fast and exciting throughout. During the first half neither side scored, but ten minutes after ch" interval George Roberts obtained a goal for the Druids. A corner in favour of each team proved fruitless, but a second comer coucecied to Flint was converted into a goal, and the score equalised amid considerable excitement. Other corners followed, but nothing further was scored, and the game ended in a draw of one goal each.—The following were the teams :— Druids: E. Thomas, goal; C. Thomas and Postle, backs; G. Owen, A. Powell, and D. Evans, half- backs; Vaughan, Butler, T. Davies. J. Davies, and G. Roberts, forwards. Flint: R. Jones, goal; E. Roberts and J. Jones, backs; G. Oare, S. Deane, and J. Price, half-backs; W. Jackson, W. Evans, Singleton, Woods, and G. Barnes, forwards. Referee, Mr R. T. Gough, Oswestry.
SHROPSHIRE LEAGUE.I
SHROPSHIRE LEAGUE. Eight of the clubs forming this League were en- gaged on Saturday, and as the competition nears its close, the interest taken in the doings of the leading clubs increases. There is very little doubt, however, that St. George's will maintain their position at the head of the table, although hard pressed by Oswestry United. Newtown beat Wellington Town at New- town, by two goals to nil, and Hereford beat Shrews- bury at Hereford, by a similar score. Whitchurch visited Oswestry, and the United won by four goals to one. Ironbridge beat Newport by three goals to two at Newport. Results up to date Goals P. W. L. D. For Agst. rts.

Kirkounel has been looked upon for some time as a doubtful starter, but seeing the tremendous form the stable is in, and the amount of money which has gone on the son of Royal Hampton, it is, I hncy, all plain sailing now, and the commissions have been worked. append below a list of PROBABLE STARTERS AND JOCKEYS.

If it is supposed Fred Webb will have the leg on Sun of a Gun the Petronel horse will be brought along with as fine judgment and consummate skill as anything in the race, and nailing horse that he is, when he likes, he will, if on his best behaviour. take & great deal of beating, for ht is a grand stayer to boot. He certainly failed last cclunin several times, and this inclines me to look upon him with a certain degree of suspicion. I must, however, not be over confident of picking out the wiuer of the city, as I failed in my selection for the Lincoln, although I remarked in my last article that Euclid would pay for following, and that I would as socn back Sancho Panza as any thing in the race for a. place. The winning of Euclid, and the subsequent running of Sancho Panza has amplv proved my words to have been correct and the information of the very best, but in the race before us next Wednes- day I feel the responsibility of the difficult tank set me as there are several horses thoroughly wound up and undoubtedly spinning." Better to my liking (but I must here confess to a certain amount of prejudice in favour) than Sen of a. Gun is the d ?ll ter of gr, daughter of grand old Corrie Roy to wit None the Wiser and with Jack Watts up \Ie .^hall have every ounce made the best of. Corrie Roy in her dav did me one or two rare turns, ana I am a'.mcst cert-lin to be biased in favour of her daughter. She has been Lacked to win a very iar^e stakw and should she roll home not a few books will have had a good hard knock." She must, thoush, be an unknown quantity. Reminder has class to recommend him of no mean order, and if all ac- counts are true, there will be a big rung on him before flag fall. Money is reported to be very sweet on his chance, although I think jockeys and trainers' tips arc absolutely the worst of nil. The knowing division and sharps are standing Filepa to a man, nnd she surely will run a good mare, and in my opinion very nearly win, but I intend to look else: where. -Arcane has been backtd tn a fashion very suggestive of his well being, and dangerous indeed he should be considered, and I for one, on the da" v. would keep him on the safe side. Of Clwvd I tun not in possession of any information, but if in anything like the form of last year he will !H) among the ruck struggling in the van. I remember at Chester when Tanderage was a two-year-old an enormous rush being made, when in the .winkling of an eye, though in a field of, I think, fourteen runners, from a ten, rine, and eight to one chance he came to even money before, AS GTIS Elen would say, 'E know where 'E tne," and finished, I think, Eecond. It is sail, however. Tanderagee is being reserved for the Jubilee, an1 i 7 so, of course, will not run in the race under no>e, but I warn my readers there is a great race or two in the son of Morgan and Baloruack. Why cannot Bushey Park win I have been asking myself ? Sst. 91b. for a six-year-old of his stamp, and with his per- formances does not look to me an impossible impost by long chalks, and Worcester at Sit. 71b., although running a bit ordinary the other day, is de- cidedly not out of it. Middleham since his recent win has been well backed, but I t-annot fancy him, though recent form is never to be despised Egerton, a five- ear-olcl, at 7st. 51b., with that grand handicap jockey, Allscpp, will command plenty of followers between now and Wednesday next, ani it is certain he is net over- weighted, but I am afraid to trus: him as I think him a bit of a rogue. Irish Car has-ollie form to commend him to the attention of punters, and Mitli Tommy Loates for his pilot, will not be wanting in jockey- ship. Coming down the list, please note one in rare form, I mean Sancho Panza. with only 7st. to carry, and piloted by yonng Kempton. The backers, win and place, of this gcod and honest four-year-old, cannot cio better than this, though I am afraid of one I have not yet mentioned, and which is going to be my sole tip for the race, ar.d that is LOTTIE S DUDE, who performed at Lincoln, considering his condition and the pain he was in, in a really wonder- ful and game manner. Thus I finish my task for the City and Suburban of 1895. giving you LOTTIE'S DUDE .1 SANCHO PANZA .2 FILEPA 3 hoping I shall be able to shake hands with myself next Wednesday afternoon. Before I close, I cannot but mention the pleasure it has been to me to see Yankee Doodle to the fore a.t Newmarket— questionable policy, perhaps, to ride in the "American style," as SiniB did, but all'. well that ends well," and so he has scored a real triumph. I fancy Tommy Loates and Morny Cannon will teach, him a thing or two before the close of the season, 309 it is not always the game to make every post a winning post. Let us, however, congratulate right heartilv the success of the American colours, and let us wish Sims any amount of success in the future. SrORTSMAN.
