Socker Game at Swansea RUGBYITES CURIOUS AND INTERESTED. They Should Turn Up in Force on St. Helen's Ground to See the Professionals Play. Westerners are getting a good bit interested in the international match that is to take place on the St. Helen's Ground, Swansea, en Satur- day, February 24, and several have written me asking what sort ef a match it is going to be. Of coarse, a good deal will depend en the weather, and if the Welsh team turn out as selected. Given a fine day, and the selected Welsh eleven are seen on the field, it should be far and away the prettiest match wa have ever seen in South Wales. Of course, we have to remember that the Welsh eleven are for the most part professionals —Welshmen now em- ployed as players by the big English organisa. sations, such clubs as Everton, Ac. Therefore, we can rest assured that in the matter of talent we shall see some of the best players in the kingdom down here. With a full team Wales ought to win very, very easily. I cannot at present reply to questions as to excursions, &c. but I have no doubt the Welsh secretary, who I mentioned on Wednesday was down here, has made that all right, and in due course we shall hear what has been done in that direction. By the way, will Mr. Sandiford please accept my thanks for the club colours of the Cardiff A.P.C. It looks as if Gus Gould is going to follow in the footsteps of his more famous brother Arthur, and make a name for himself as a centre three-quarter. The critics were very much taken up with him in the Liverpool match, and I see he is down to do duty for the Usksiders against Swansea on Saturday. Well! Well! I suppose it's like wooden legs, it runs in the blood. The fifteen chosen to represent Newport will be :—Back, T. England three-quarter backs, W. G. James, A. J. Gould, Gus Gould, and C. tT. Thomas; half backs, M. Hannen and F. C. Parfitt; forwards, J. Hannen; T. C. Graham, W. H. Watts, H. T. Day, H. Packer, T. Pook, J. Bowley, and W. Groves. When the Halifax team were on tour in South Wales they went into ecstacies over the kind- ness and hospitality shown them at the Grand Hotel, and many letters have reached mine host from the Yorkshire town thanking him and pro- mising another visit. I saw some of the Northern pressmen got a bit mixed when they were down here, but usually the funny impres. sions derived from a little tiddly-hi-ti appear less glowing when the head resumes its normal dimensions in a day or two after. However, the impressions taken away by one of the Northern pressmen are a bit flattering to us, so listen to what he says of the pack:—" The Halifax party were also well pleased with the surroundings of the hotel, the well-appointed Cardiff Cricket and Football Grounds being immediately in front, bounded only by the better class houses of the wealthier Cardiff citizens." Jusso! Mr. Harry Wheeler has taken unto himself a pub., and now, I presume, the Griffin Hotel, SE. Mary-street, is to be chronicled as another of those places where cyclists, footballists, and athletes in general do congregate. Well, he has been a very active participator of sport in the past, and especially in assaults-ef arms, the majority of which in Cardiff have been put forward under his smart organisation. The cycling car- nival, the infirmary festival, and many other classes of sports have derived much benefit from his valuable help, and I trust they will do so in the future. It's funny how sportsmen do turn to pubs. I suppose it is because the boys of the old, old school are met and the battles of the past fought out over again. I wish Mr. Wheeler every success in his new under- taking. Professor Chivers, who is doing an exhibition roller skate this week at the Panopticon used to be the champion of the world at his game, and in the international contest at Berlin, some years back, he covered ten miles in thirty minutes, winning the championship medal and belt, which were presented by the Emperor. The reco rd for one mile roller skating is 2min. 56 3-5sec., made by F. Delmont at Olympia on August 26,1890. Therefore to cover ten miles in thirty minutes Professor Chivers had to bustle along pretty lively on that occa- sion. I am hoping we shall have some good cricket in South Wales this season, but, although we do not object to two-or, at a pinch, three—Aays' matches, we must live in hope we shall never be treated to the style of game they semetimes have in Australia. The fifty-third intercolonial cricket match between Victoria and New South Wales, which Victoria won with three wickets to spare, extended over eight days. A protest has been make against such linked sweetness long drawn out," and the Autralian cricket authorities assert that intercolonial matches take up far too much time even when they are got through in four days. It appears in Australia they have a second adjournment at four o'clock, which cuts a lot of time to waste. Blaokham's opinion (expressed to a writer in the Pall Mall Gazette) is that if cricket were conducted in the same fashion in England the crowd would be tearing up the railings round the ground, and wrecking the grand stands." An interesting game was played at the Sophia Gardens on Wednesday afternoon between the Cardiff Wednesday Star and Chepstow. The Cardiff back line proved much too good for the visitors, and mainly throngh their smart play the homesters were enabled to run out winners by two goals and three trios to nil. Oliver Sheere, of the Cardiff Northern, and Choppy" Davies, of Llandaff, aided materially in gaining the victory for the Stars, the try whioh the latter gained being a particularly smart perfor. mance. Will our English racing oracks who have tanigrat,ed to Sunny France come back again (asks "Sport and Plav")? At the present time most of our oraok racing men are located in Paiis, and have expressed their determina- tion to stop there. But they may probably change their minds since the N.C.U, has shown ite determination to do eomething for the men whom they have banished from the amateur ranks. With such men out of Eng- land as A. W. Harris, J. W. Schofield, A. C. Edwards, A..V. Linton, A. Barden, T. War- wick, and others, there will mot be much en- couragement for promoters of sports meetings in this country to cater for cash prize riders unless there is some kind of guarantee that the riders named, or at least the majority of them, will come back to England, and, like patriotic Englishmen, support those who are ready and willing to include professional races in their sports programmes.

MINISTERS FALL OUT. Scene at a Swansea School Board Meeting. A very breezy discussion took place en Wed nesday at themeetingef the Higher and Lower' School Board, Swansea.—Comparing the merits of schools, the Rev. J. Davies (Cadle) declared that the school at Cadle was a better one than the National Schools at Cackett.— The Rev. D. Roderick: How do you know that F-The Rev. J. Davies: Of course I know it, and can prove it, too.—The Rev. D. Rode- rick said .something protesting against this man" on the board. -The Rev. J. Davies (warmly): Who is a man ? (Laughter.) Don't you infer that I am not telling the trnth, sir. I try to put down drunkenness. You don't preach against any sin in the world. No, Mr. Chairman, he doesn't preach against sin or any- thing else. He doean't open his mouth.- The Rev. D. Roderick: Who told you that ?— The Rev. J. Davies I know it.—The Rev. D. Roderick Don't show yourself such a fool— a fool in the estimation of the country. You showed yourself one before the magistrates.— The Rev. J. Davies Don't you call any man a fool.—The Rev. D. Roderick Yeu are a fool. —The Rev. J. Davi#* I have one of 1^tta,p>gfr~~ <?hTirclius in • tfefr country? but you failed with the Wesleyans.— The Chairman: Order, gentlemen, please.—A good deal of warm oelloquy followed between the two gentlemen.—The Rev. J. Davies de- manded an apology, and the board voted against the use of such language as fool."—The Rev. D. Roderick said he would not apologise. It was worse to be called a thief, as he had been.—The incident then terminated.

WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA. Penarth Man Tells some of the Hard- ships of the Campaign. Captain William Pengelley, of The Ferns Penarth, has a son in Matabeleland, and has forwarded us extracts from a letter received frem his son. The extracts are as follow :— Buluwayo, Jan. 6, 1894. Subsequent to the receipt of my telegram from this place OH November 11 last, you must all be anxious for further news of me. Since I last wrote, which I think was under cover of a friend of mine in Salisbury, I have been tkrough rather a bad time, having had a severe attack of dysentery, owing to which I was quite unable to write. I went out on a patrol to the north after tke King. We had a terribly rough time of it—rain every day, and, of course, no shelter. We had no blankets, only a great. I coat, which soon became in a chronic state of soak. Worst of all, we ran short of all our grub," and had to kill and eat some of our horses. We had plenty of fighting—were attacked four times, and several of our troops were wounded, but only two killed. I got dysentery while on the march, and you can understand what agonies I suf- fered, having to ride and do duty through it all. At last we had to return to Shiloh, where reinforcements and provisions had been sent from Buluwayo. Our troop ("A") were ordered back, and only "B" troop, which had just come up from Bulu- wayo, went on with Major Forbes, Major Wilson, and the Victoria men and Raaf's Bangers. Of course, you have learnt through the papers of the terrible disaster which befel these men. Nearly all "B" troop, with Captain Borrow, Major Wilson, and a lot of his Victoria men, were wiped out by the enemy, 45 men in all, and all of them old iViashona- land hands. Of course, I knew intimately nearly all the "B" troop, who belonged to the Salisbury Column, and I was very much cut up on learning the sad news. I have my- self been very ill in bed for over a month- not strong enough even to crawl. Thank goodness I am better now, though still very weak, and I caauot yet eat any solid food, and have been existing on milk ever since I've been ill. I never sawcuch aplace as this is for flies. You can't do anythingfor theai Without exaggeration they are as thick as bees in a hive. The paper I write on is black with them, and were it not for a fine piece of muslin I have over my face, it would be utterly impossible for me to write, as they swarm for one's eyes directly they can get a. chance."

FIRE AT CARDIFF. Flames in a Room at the Mayor's Residence. Police constable Rowland reported at Roath Police-station, Cardiff, on Wednesday evening that a fire had broken out at No. 67, Newport-read, the residence of the mayor (Councillor Trounce). The constable imme- diately went to the house and found a back room upstairs full of smoke, and upon investigation discovered a portion of the floor and skirting on fire. He thereupon tore up a portion of the floor, and was able with a few buckets of water to extinguish the fire. The damage done was not very considerable, but a chiffonniere in the room was destroyed. The fire appears to have originated through a flue leading from a boiler to the main chimney becoming over-heated.

HIS DEBUT IN GERMANY. Ben Davies Gets an Enthusiastic Reception. 1 Truth says :—Tho fact tha.t Mr. Ben Davies on his Berlin debut last Saturday created a big sensation, the small audience at first receiving him coldly, but eventually rousing themselves to enthusiasm and insisting en three enceres. is not at all surprising. Germany may be a musical country, but it does not possess a. tenor of the beauty of voice of Mr. Ben Davies. Un- fortunately for themselves, our friends in the Fatherland do not hear many English vocalists of the first rank, for the Germans are not very good paymasters, and more money can be earned by singers in unmusical England. The small audience at Mr. Ben Davies's debut in musical Berlin is explained by the fact that the Germans will not accept an artist until his pretensions have been endorsed by the leading critics. And it is much the same in unmusical England.

PILOTAGE AT LLANELL Y. At the last meeting of the Llanelly Harbour Commission an extensively signed petition was received* from pilots asking the board to place R hulk in Lynch Pool for the use of the pilots.

"JACK THE RIPPER." The" Star" Continues its Story of the Human Fiend. The Star" of Wednesday, continuing ite story about "Jack the Ripper," We know the Christian and surname of Jack the Ripper'; we know his present habitation; our representatives have seen him, and we have in our possession a. mass of declarations, docu- ments, and other proofs which prove his identity. We ha.ve even a fac-siruile of the knife with which the murders were committed, purchased at. the same place. We are able to trace the whole career of the man who com- mitted these crimes; we can give the names of his employers, their places of business, the term of his service there, and the incidents of his connection with them—incidents which clearly show that he was in the neighbour- hood of Whit-echapel at the time when the murders were committed; that he developed tendencies even in his employment of homi- cidal insanity; and, finally, he was at liberty /tyring :111 thai period when the murders were oommitted, and that these murders immediately came to an end -as well as other crimes of violence-from the moment when he was safely under lock and key. But at this moment our readers must be satisfied with lees information than is at our disposal. Jack the Ripper' has relatives; they are some of them in positions which would make them a target for the natural curiosity—for the unreasoning repro- bation which would pursue any person even remotely connected with so hideous a mon- strosity, and we must abstain, therefore, from giving his name in the interest of these un- fortunate, innocent, and respectable connec- tions. We are the more resolved to do so at this moment as a pathetic point in this otherwise hideous and awful story is the tenacity with which his relatives have clung to this awful type. They have tended him, nursed him, watched for him, borne with him with a patience that never tired, with a love that never waned. While he has been out through the watches of the night on bis fiendish work, one of them has sat up. waiting anxiously for his return—frightened at- every noise—apprehensive of every possible form of mishap; in imagination, picturing this tiger who marched from crime to crime as some innocent, harmless, and helpless child in need of protection from the violence of others. In human history there is not a more remark- able case of the difference in the view between the relatives of a human being and the world generally." The "Star" then give,; certain particulars which, it. claims, proves its statement, and promises further revelations to-day (Thursday).

MUSIC AT CARDIFF. Grand Concert Attracts Crowds to the Park-hall. The second concert of the sea son in oonnec tion with the Cardiff Musical Society was given in the Park-hall, Cardiff, on Wednesday evening. The programme embraced Men- delssohn's "Hymn of Praise," Gounod's Gallia," and Goetz's 137th Psalm." Madame Clara Samuel, Madame Williams-Penn, and Mr. S. Masters were the principal vocalists. The "137th Psalm" and r' Gallia" composed the first part, and the second was reserved for the rendition of the Hymn of Praise." The majority of the solos throughout were entrusted to Madame Clara Samuel, who sang in an artistic manner calcu- lated to win the approval of anyone who can appreciate the truest style of rendering Mendelssohn's, Gounod's, and Goetz's airs and recitatives. It is rarely that the piece i Soli- tary lieth the City" is given so completely in keeping with its character, and it is rarely that the solo "Praise Thou the Lord" received equally brilliant interpretation, or The night is departing'' is offered to an audience in a more impressive manner than it was by the gifted and accomplished artiste to whom it was en- trusted. Madame Clara Samuel and Madamo Willianis-Penn gave I waited for the Lord" with touching pathos, and the duet My song shall be always Thy mercy" by Madame Clara Samuel and Mr. S. Masters was rendered with the tenderest expression. Mr. S. Masters was better in Sing ye praise" than in Then shall the righteous," and still better in The sorrows of death," whilst Watch- man, what of the night ?" was a fine example of dashing vocalisation. The choruses were capitally sung. There was steadiness in the numbers, and given with excellent effect. It was pleasing to notice that although the vooal. soloists received a fair share of the applause, the chorus aingiag- carried off some of tho chief honours of the evening'. The band parts were played with power and spirit, and Mr. H. C. Tonking proved himself an excellent organist. All those who took part in the con- cert may be congratulated upon the success secured, and the large audience may be oon- gratulated upon having been permitted to hear such a splendid performance. Spme of the Dresses. Our lady correspondent writes -—Madame Samuel wore a rich white brocade, with amber sleeves and flounce at the hem. Madame Penn was gracefully gowned in very pale lavender brocade, with wide olive grean velvet panels and bodice, puffed brocade sleeves, and deep cream lace, and wore a bouquet of fragrant tea roses and violets. There were some pretty dresses among the choir-a green silk and darker green plush, a white crepon with deep mulberry red velvet lappets, and a myrtle green velveteen with pale pink silk draped over the shoulders and bust of a low bodice. The blouse was to be seen in every imaginable colour and design. The hall was very well filled indeed, though it was a pity the- balcony seat occupiers had not grasped the fact that the concert began at 7.45, not 8.15. Opera cloaks had it almost all their own way.

For Catching Thieves. POLICE IN POSSESSION OF A MAGIC POWDER. It Colours the Fingers 13tue and Makes the Thief His Own Betrayer. It is a. good deal easier (writes a foreign corre- spondent) to catch a. bird than a thief, and yet it is by no means enough to strew a little salt en its tail, youthful traditions to the contrary not- withstanding. So rapid is the advance of civili- sation, hewever, and so ingenious are the appli. co,tions of science to our daily needs, that a powder has already been invented, and will soon be patented, which possesses the marvel- lous virtue of catching thieves. This is no mere figure of speech, but a plain, prosaic fact, which, when duly realised and appreciated, ought to obtain for its clever inventor a much higher place among the benefactors ef humanity than has been assigned to the German to whom we owe the blessings of gunpowder. The in. veiitor of the magic thief-betraying particles is a Hungarian by birth, Schrodl by lame, and 8r manufacturer of imitation jewellery" by pro- fession. He would never have dreamt, he eays, ef devoting his time to the studies which led te this remarkable result, had he not been, so to say, driven to it by the thieves themselves so tha- it is one of the numberless cases in which neceo sity is the mother of invention. Day after day Herr Schrodl made the unpleasant discovery that these light-fingered gentry visited his shop. and evidently turning scornfully away from his brilliant "imitation" sapphires, rubies, emeralds, and diamonds, devoted themselves exclusively to the money-till, which they rifled. All his endeavours to disoevor the identity of the unbidden guest or guests were unavailing. I could not continue to exist en pure loss," said Herr Schrodl, so I applied to a professor r of chemistry, Dr. Telek, who gave me a powder, with which I strewed the money in ray safe every evening. This powder, if you touch it, colours your fingers blue; if you try to wash out thn stain in water it only assumes a mere intense hue, and it is wholly unamenable to the action of soap." The very first morning after the "jeweller" had plaood a layer of this tell-tale powder on his money ho noticed the disappearance ef 80 crowns (about L3 5s.) from the partition destined to held silver. Obviously the coins had been abstracted by person well acquainted with the premises- most probably by one of the men. Herr Schrodl at once summoned all his workmen, and ordered them one by one to approach a large water-basia and immerse their hands—a sort of ordeal adapted to the humane spirit of modern times. Only one man evinced a strong reluctance to wet his hands he said he felt an inexplicable shyness of water-had been bitten in fact by dog er cat. But Herr Schrodl, having no fear of hydrophobia, insisted and the moment the hands of the backslider were moistened they changed colour to a dark blue. Yon are the thief," exclaimed the jeweller, where. upon the man tremblingly acknowledged his guilt and was forthwith removed to the police- station. Herr Schrodl has given a quantity of the magic powder to the police, who, while very pleased with its never-failing action, object that it has one one fatal defect—it stains the hands of saint and sinner indiscriminately. If it w;>ukl only re-sti £ \;fc ii*. i>;<.peviif,s VJ the hands of genuine thieves it would be price- less. Bnt if all the legal possessors of guldens, crowns, &c., go about the highways and bye- ways of life with hands dyed a dark blue it will soon be as difficult as ever te distinguish be- tween honest men and thieves. But the police have always shown themselves an unapprecia- tive and sceptical body of men, who see thieves everywhere without the aid of any magio powder.

THE ANARCHISTS. Identity ef the Paris Prisoner to- Established. A Reuter's telegram from Paris on Wed- nesday says: -This morning the prisoner him- self admitted to a police inspector tl" his name was Wile Henry. The Prefect of Police states the Anarchist wrote his real name: this morning in the register of the inspector of police, and that they knew him and had hin. under observation The Prefeot says the prisoner is a most daring man. He has lived in London for some time, and the police were in- formed on the 18th of January"* that he had arrived in Paris. The Prefect received in- formation regarding his movements on the ?0th and 24th of January. Henry was born in Spain, but his parents are French. This daring and most violent Anarchist replied to questions by the Prefect which he alone could answer, and the Prefect aune to the conclu- sion that he accomplished his coup alone, without accomplices. Moreover, the prisoner declared emphatically that this was the case. Questioned about Yaillant, Henry said thai; VxiMont was a mere child. "One does not," he added, scoffingly, put nails into a saucepan to blow up the bourgeois. There is a better plan than that." » The International Centre of Anarchy Inferring to the report that Henry when he ieft London was accompanied by three other Anarchists, the Paris" this evening eayg;—London for some months past has become the international centre of Anarchy. During the last few darys the beet means of avenging Yaillant has been the subject of open discussion at the Autonomy Club and at Grafton-hall. The Prefect of Police to-day had a ooneulta- tion with the Minister of the Interior, lasting over two hours. It is persistently reported ii the lobbies of the Chamber, where the object of this interview was much discussed, tha* further numerous and important arreste of Anarchists may be expected shortly. A bundle of small Anarchist pamphlets coming from England was seized on the frontier yester- day. The Russian Nihilists. A Reuter's telegram from Berlin on Wednes- day says A telegram from St. Petersburg states that all members of tha editorial staff of the J Warsaw newspaper Glos and another political journal were arrested yesterday. It is added that numerous domiciliary visits have been made in that city during the last few days, owing to the discovery of an extensive Nihilist association, to which the journalists in question are stated to have belonged. At the same time Catholic priests continue te be ariested. .r
