International Gossip.
International Gossip. DIFFERENCE IN WELSH AND IRISH MODES OF SCORING. I Shire Horse Breeding. Some of the best of the Dunsmore Stud come to South Wales. An attempt was made at the meeting of the Irith Rugby Union the other evening to assimu- late their scoring with that of the International Bqard, but, unfortunately, without result. As matters now stand, the chief difference is that Irishmen allow a penalty goal to score only half a try. There is a curious anomaly, how- ever, in the Irish plan. After a penalty goal the profiting side hare to go Isack to half-way though they have only scored one point, whereas after a, try, which scores two, they have only to retire to the 25 flag. It was, however, decided to give the referee the same powers as he has in England, Dear Welsh Athj^te,'—I am in a fog as to which wing Pearson will play in the Scotch match. Two years ago, when Pearson and M'Cutcheon, both right-wingers, were picked to play against the Scotsmen at Swaasea, the latter took the left position, and a rare mess he made of it. However, on this occasion I sup- pose Pearson will be relegated to the left wing, so as to play with Fitzgerald; M'Catcheon and Gould taking up their proper places on the right. If you can tell me if my presumptions are correct I sball be very much obliged to you.—J. H." If my information is correct, Pearson has been chosen for the left wing so will play with Fitzgerald. I don't think it would make a lot of difference to him. I may say this, however, that it will of courre be in the discretion of Gould to change the wings if the exigencies of the case demand it. In Pearson's case I don't think they will; and it would of course be far better if he ould play alongside his own club man. My Western correspondent wishes to have a say on the international team, especially the three-quarters. Gould and M'Cutcheon," he thinks, were from the first certain of their places, and the same might be said of Pearson, who rightly displaces Biggs. It is the earnest wish of every Westerner that Tommy' should make a name for himself on Saturday week, and show us some of tke form he displays for his club. Fitzgerald ought to be a success, and if he can feed Pearson Gedge will have a warm handful to look after. A place had to be made for Day, and as the committee thought Graham to be the weakest of the eight we will loyally accept their decision. But, at the same time. the ex-Newport skipper is the cleverest man we have at the line-out, and we are not too strong in that department. As to our chances against Scotland it ia difficult to ha-ard an opinion. One thing is very certain. We shall nat have the easy journey we had last season, and if we win it will only be after a hard tussle. Still, Scotland went under at Newport once before and may fall again." England, the Newport full back, is dead out of luck. He got two nasty kioks in the Wat- sonian match, one over the eye and the other ~yu £ ilt*2-C*%V.' -OA,33III-R4JAUJF--IUI .t'jI,.? -S01-- Somerset, and in tackling Wilcox, & Devonshire man, he was rendered insensible. Truly it never rains but it pours. An interested spectator of the Newport- Blackheatk match on Saturday last was Mr. John Smith, through whose influence the first match was arranged, some thirteen or more years back. He was heard to remark, as he watched the game, What a difference from the first match!" Mr. R. Mullock, late hou. secretary of the Welsh Rngby Union, was also present. Pastime prints a lengthy article on the match. M' They sum up as follows The weak part of the Newport team is the tackling of their three- quarters, but the cleverness and speed of the forwards prevents this from being often tested. On the different kinds of tricks, and the varieties of passes adopted by the team, a volume might be written." The ball in connection with the Llwynypia 1 Athletic Club is to come off at the Town-hall, Tonypandy, on the 7th of February. It is an annual affair, and considered to be the best of its kind in the district, and always attended by the elite of the Rhondda Valleys, as well as visitors from Merthyr, Cardiff, Newport, and Swansea. No expense will be spared to make the ball as great a success as usual.. Good luck to the Llwynypia Club, say I. ( The breeding of shire horses has not hitherto received a large amount of attention in Wales, but Mr. Buckley, in paying 1,010 guineas for "Dunsmore Gleaming," has set the ball rolling with a vengeance. Let us hope that this is a step towards bringing the breed into prominence in these parts. Of late years the breed of shire horses has been very largely developed, and has beeu taken up with spirit in parts of the country where a few years ago a shire horse was practically unknown. And thattheir breeding is a paying concern no one can deny when the money offered in prizes for them is looked at. Perhaps Mr. Muntz, from I whom Mr. Buckley has just made His expensive purchase, is oue of the greatest authorities on the bread. To quote from him a shire/ horse should ''Walk like a gentleman and trot like a park hack." Of course, the prosperity of shire horse breeding must rest on the general demand for gooil-werking horses at a good price rather than on prize winners. That demand, however' to a certain extent exists, but in catering for it it would be well to remember to follow the example of Mr. Buckley and obtain a weighty and fashionable strain of blood to commence with. I believe Mr. Buckley has a few shire bred horses, although nothing approaching the class 1 of "Dunsmore Gloaming." He is an ardent all. round sportsman, and whenMr. Powell, of Maes- j gwynne, died some time back, Mr. Buckley will j be remembered as purchasing the greater part of 1 the Penllegare hounds. 1 The editor of the American Wheelman for- wards a copy of his paper asking our opinion as to its merits. In printing we generally allow the Yankees go one better than we do, but what interests me personally is a picture of "Dai" Lewis that appears as a member of its staff, j Dear old Dai It takes one back a long time when thinking of him. Back to Hancock and the "invincible" year. Back to the Castleford match in that season, when Dai scored the one and only try of the match. There are a few who will still remember that match a hard gruelling, ding-dong game. The park was flooded, so the game took place on the Sophia Gardens Field. Dai scored the only try of that match, and won the game for the Welah Metro- 1 politans. Heigho It's going a long time back, and many changes have taken place since then. However, the editor, whose name, W. J. Morgan, suggests, by the way, that he comes frem the land of the leek, wants to knew what we think of his paper. Well, it's smart— darned smart; well printed and smartly written, and, from Dai's point of view, it's bound to be all right, for it's chock-a-block full •f advertisements. WELSHATHUfcTE. I .l

REPRESENTATION of MERTHYR
REPRESENTATION of MERTHYR The Unionists and Mr. Herbert C. Lewis. Now that it has bean determined to fight the [ Merthyr Boroughs in the Conservative interest, there is a strong feeling among the supporters of the Constitutional cause throughout the con- stituency that Mr. Herbert C. Lewis should be invited to become the candidate. Certainly, a better man to wage the battle can not be found, and there is good reason to believe—though the statement is perfectly unauthoritative—that the committee appointed to select a candidate will vest their choice m him. Should they do so "it s hoped that Mr. Lewiu will accept the call, and leave East Glamorgan to be contested by someone else. ?"??"oè'A.>.

J. Buckley, master of the Penllergaer Hounds, purchased Dunsmore Gloaming," the property of Mr. P. A. Muntz, for 1,010gs. "Dunsmore Gloamiug" was bred by H.R.H. the Prince of Wales, and scoured second prize at the London Show. Lord Llangslttock bought "Dunsmore C-ui Bono," also the property of Mr. Muntz, for 460gs. She is a filly of immense size and grand propor- tions, who at the London Show took the cup, making her the champion filly in the three classes.

Mendelssohn's "Elijah" at Newport The Newport Philharmonic Society scored an unqualified success on Thursday evening by the performance of Mendelssohn's Elijah" at the Drill-hall (late Albert-hall), and Mr. E. Bernard Newman, the conductor, and Mr. E. J. Wood- ward (of Gloncester). the leader of the orchestra, are to be warmly congratulated. The hall was well filled. It was found almost at the last moment that Madame Stone-Barton, who was to have been the soprano soloist, was very unwell and could not attend, but her place was very ably taken by Madame Eleanor Farnol. The other principal vocalists were Miss Eosa Green, contralto Mr. Herbert Grover, tenor and Mr. Charles Copland, baritone. There were a full orchestra and a chorus of 140 voices. The soloists all did remarkably well. Mr. Grover, the new tenor, by his signally clear and effective enunciation, being a great favourite. The great chorus, Thanks be to God." naturally was the big item for the choir, and right well was it rendered, both vocal and instrumental parts in the magnificent movements being sustained with remarkable effect. -?-p-

THE ARREST OF BALFOUR.
THE ARREST OF BALFOUR. The Runaway's Lady Friends to be Called. The Press Association has ascertained that no telegraphic communication has been received from, Mr. Jabez Balfour since his arrest in the Argentine Republic either by members of his family or the firm of solieitors that were acting for him in several matters on the eve of his quitting England. It is not the intention of the family to take steps on their own responsibility for the defence, they having decided to leave this to the discretion of the solicitor to whom the absconding bankrupt gave a power of attorney to act on his behalf in dealing with his property. It is understood by the friends of the two young ladies who left England shortly after Balfour, and are now returning, that they will be called as witnesses by those entrusted with the prosecution of the bankrupt. Although it is generally understood that Inspector Tonbridge will start to-day (Friday)for the Argentine Republic to bring back Mr. Spencer Balfour, the Press Association, on causing inquiries to be made at Scotland Yard at a late hour on Thursday night, ascertained that there was a probability of the officer not starting until early next week, that there was a probability of delay in consequence of Balfour having been successful in obtaining a writ of habeas corpios to be issued, and that in conse- quence it would be necessary for Inspector Tonbridge to be provided with additional documents to those previously prepared. Several cablegrams have passed between the Foreign Office and the British officials in Argentina with regard to the writ of habeas corpus. -??-
WHAT TO READ.
WHAT TO READ. The Publications of the Week Re- viewed. The Garden Oracle and Floricultural Year Book for 1894," which is conducted by the editor of the Gardeners' Mar/aune, has reached its thirty-sixth year of publica tion. It has numerous illustrations, some of them tinted, and contains much practical and statistical information and many useful tables, besides the usual facts which g« to make up a calendar. The new plants and flowers of 1893 8,re very fully treated. The Enj/ineers'' Gazette Antiiifl contains, be- side almanac and tide tables, a number of special articles, as well as a variety of hints of use and interest to engineers and mechanics, amongst which electricity is not forgotten. The Brief is the name of a new monthly legal review of reviews," which is intended to focus all that is of special interest in the legal periodicals, and to extract the gist of quasi-legal contributions appearing in the lay reviews and magazines." It issues from Cursitor-street. Chancery-lane. The Sketch has won for itself a position as one of the most charming illustrated weeklies of the day. The current number is a perfect mine of literary and picturesque wealth. Amongst the articles that on Dr. Robertson Nicoll, with portrait and photograph of his house, will attract a good deal of attention. Black and White has this week some exqui- site tinted illustrations. There are two specially spirited pictures, The Chamois Hunter's Death" and "The Last Stand," the latter giving an idea how Major Wilson and his gallant band "fought till they fell and died" against the Matabele. In the Sunday at Home Archdeacon Farrar writes on early Christianity in Britain, drawing attention to the Cymric legends regarding St. Joseph, Pudens, Claudia, Lucius, and the rest, and on which he appears to place very little dependence. Mr. Justin M'C'arthy contributes to Good Words a chatty article on the late Mr. W. H. Smith, taking as his text the recently published life of that statesman by Sir Herbert Maxwell. In the Leisure Hour for February Mr. Carnegie writes em the Matabele, Mr. Elliott on the Ma-Shuna,'and there is also the second part of an article on Germany and the Germans. Signor Randegger is the subject of an article in Cassell's Saturday Journal. Work publishes this week an illustrated supplement, giving portraits and testimonies of working men and others who have benefited by the practical instructions in this capital journal for mechanics."

| Let Sunday Alone.
| Let Sunday Alone. — MR. C. T. WHITMELL'8 CHAM- PIONSHIP. Mr. James McKay Describes Labeur's Loss by the Rational Sunday Movement. The Cardiff Rational Sunday Movement i beginning- to reuse itself out of sleep again, ant to show the sincerity of the faith that is in it by hazarding a Sunday exhibition of pictures. The g-eiitieuRen at the head of this ua^vement are among the ablest in the town, and every idea that they are actuated by any other Motive in what they are doing than a public-spirited desire to serve the general good is simply absurd. It is no small matter te venture te argue the question ag-aisat them, but it is clearly sonaebody's duty to do it, and, as no one else offers, I take up the cudgels encouraging myself as best I can with the sound old reflection that the bigger the bear the better the baiting." It will, at e.nj rate, be pleasurable and profitable foll«w the case in favour of the Sunday Opening Move- ment as stated by Mr. C. T. Whitaaell, M.A., for it is certain he will advance no ploa of his own, or endorse any argument of others, to that end without a keen sense of responsibility and, if possible, aa even keener appreciation of what is solid and what merely meretricious in the claims sometimes put forward on behalf of this new departure. It is a big question, quc-stiazi with many aspects, that must be con- sidered, if considered at all. in many lights, and as IT AFFECTS MANY PROBLEMS. To do that will take time, and to avoid. hopeless confusion must be dose systematically. If it were merely a question of opening a pic- ture gallery or a library here is Cardiff on Sunday, although from the all-important point of view, to some minds, the principle would still be the same, the stake would not so uni- versally affect the community. It happens, however, that at Blackpool and Birmingham I have had to face a demand for Sunday concerts on precisely the same grounds as those which Canen Thompson urg-es for the opening of free libraries and picture galleries here. An oratorio is certainly as elevating as a book or an engrav- ing, and if I grant the one I do net know why I should not concede the other, nor why people should object as they do to Sunday bands in parks. I tie know, also, that in the report of a committee of Convocation to the Archbishop all Canterbury it is formally stated that there have been occasional private performances in theatres on Sundays far the gratification of the "besfc London society. If I am bade believe it is right to open libraries, museuins, parks, and picture galleries on Sunday, and to have Sunday con- certs and Sunday bands, I really cannot object to Sunday plays, for Shakspeare is as moral as Handel, or David Cox, or any of the celebrated nobodies who wrote the books that occupy the major part of the room on free library shelves. What society is permitted to do for its gra- tification to-day municipalities will in due course claim to do for their ratepayers, even if they have to buy a theatre to do it in. I have wit- nessed many la time the arrival of Sunday ex- cursionists in Brighton and Blackpool with amazement, hat really could see no reason why I should object to their recreating themselves in that way any more than in going to Kow Gardens or Hampton Court. In the discharge of duty I have myself had to attend SUNDAY LABOUR DEMONSTRATIONS, And when I have expressed surprise at the selection of that day, Oil the leaders have answered, as Canon Thompson was &, Working men have no other time to attend to these things," and I have feit if the plea is good' for Sunday concerts it is certainly good for Sunday demonstrations. I shall never forget hew astounded I was the first time 1 fouad myself in Phoenix Park, Dublin, on a Sunday, and saw going on before my eyes the most exciting game of football that up till then I had ever witnessed. ''Ah! the rear fellows never have time enough anv other day in the week to play a srppd r:a.œ, but Sunday. Wlayshtmld the Lord ivt&ytfr £ Dublin the jorporatiun pie- vent them ? said ray Irish companion. I know what I thought at that time, but that was sonte years ago. and I have seen Many things since the a. I know perfectly well now that there 8,re thousands of ratepayers in Cardiff who enjoy watching a, football match better*than listening to a band, or reading a book, or loo'av<? at a picture, and if they were say, Have we not as good a 1'; 'JJt to enjoy ourselves for all hour or two matching a game at football in our own park as other fellows have to sit gazing at our pictures or looking at our books ?" I should not be able to give titem an answer, I fear, that would satisfy botlll them and Canon Thompson. We cannot pick and choose as to what departures from the existing public observance of Sunday shall be allowed. We must either stop as we are or give up the princi- ple ultimately altogether. To select one set of recreations for the people on Snaaays for tho municipality to sanction and to prohibit others would be intolerable. The Rational Sniidav Movement "may be a step in the right direc- tion but what is to he realised is that, onca admit it is so, the existing idea, of Sunday "observance must go altogether. There is no possibility of a half-way house iv the matter, even if it were desirable, When Sunday excursions and Sunday trafiu on English railwaysíirst began it was in a shamefaced, hesitating, apologetic manner, and now there are not less than ONE HUNDRKD THOUSAND RAILWAY MEN at work every Sunday, four-fifths of whom could easily be dispensed with were it not for th< sake of earning dividends for their shareholders. Yet witness after witness of the artisan class, before Lord Aberdeen's Commission on Rail- way Accidents, declared workmen would rather have the Sunday rest than the Sunday pay. That was in 1877. The deadening effect of Sunday labour since then upon those very classes has been such that it ÏI; now simply notorious that railway lseu are too often quite willing- to render the service required by the companies for a somewhat higher pay than their ordinary labour commands —that Sunday work is cheerfully done if only it be regarded at the rate of a wage and a half, or, perhaps, double the wage of an ordinary day. And so it will b? with municipal attendants at museums, picture galleries, and free libraries. To-day they 0f not want it upon any terms by-and-by« they will gladly do it for extra pay, and after a whiio committees will refuse to appoint anyone who objects to it, and then when it becomes the usual rule no extra wage at all will be given for the day, and then, following the example set by State and municipality, Sunday work will become general throughout the country. Com- petition and trade rivalry will over-ride indivi- dual scruples. Thus, while advocates of Early Closing and of the Eight Hours Day are exerting themselves to the uttermost to lessen the spell of labour in all callings, and to give the unemployed a chance by sternly forbidding overtime, as all the large Trades Unions are aiming at doiirr these apostles of a Rational Sunday art sowing the seed which will by-and-bye ADD A WHOM DAY TO THE WORKING WEEK and infinitely more than undo all that has beei gained under the Factory Acts and the Baul Holiday Acts. and that is even dreamed of unde- the Eight Hours Bill and the Shop Hours Bill "Mabon" gave South Wales a day a month In the course of time the Rational Sunday people, if they have their way, will deprive u,I workers of a day a week. "We have learned or late in Cardiff to have sonje considerable respect for the Havre Chamber of Commerce. Not very long ago it declared by resolution that Sunday rest is not only a Divine law. but is imperiously demanded by mental and moral hygiene." Indeed, Franoe has been learning te warn working meR against frittering away their Sunday privileges just when England is beginning to forget their priceless value. Proudhom. one of the most brilliant exponents of the rights of Labour that ever lived, declares the observance of Sunday the most fruitful principle of future social amelioration. Sir Robert Peel asserted that the uninterrupted labour of seven days condemns men to failure of bodily and intellectual energy, and Humboldt regarded the prolongation of work to seven days as an act of inhumanity. But, leaving philosophers, and statesmen, and moralists, and religionists out of the questien, and looking for guidance only to the balance- sheets and reports of all kinds of vast indus- trial enterprises, it is a strong argument in favour of the economic advantage of Sunday aa we have it that England and America, where the day is most rigorously observed as a da.y of rest, are the most successful manufacturing countries in the world. The grasping, greedy disposition, financial or intellectual- which loads a man to work on and on through the hours which should be devoted to cairn repose of mind and body will in time prematurely wear out his powers. And se with nations and with institu- tions. The notion that nu n and women who will not take the trouble te read or think or look at pictures during their week-day leisure will long continue to do so oil Sundays ie a very ill- founded ene. and to destroy the present chars,c- ter of the weekly day of rest for such a dream is doing a great evil for a distant cJaaRoc of achieving a little good. Let Sunday aloi The fear to de what is right, lest others should pass us in the race for knowledge or for wealth, not a proof of what is rational," but of the very contrary.—X sun. Cardiff.
