Cardiff Club on Tour. THEIR VICTORY OVER MOSELEY. "Welsh Athlete's" Notes on Saturday's Games In the Welsh Football Worl,d. There was only a comparatively small atten- dance at the Reddings on Saturday to witness the struggle between the Welsh Metropolitans and the Moseley contingent. But this may be accounted for owing to the fact that the old local rivals, the Wolver- hampton Wanderers and Aston Villa., were playing off their first round for the English Cup within a comparatively short distance of the Moseley Club ground. The homesters were con- siderably weakened by the absence of Byrne, who was reserving himself for the international match, while the visitors were minus the services of A. F. Hill, Gus Lewis, and D. W. Evans. Since the memorable occasion when Moseley lowered the colours of Hancock's invincible fifteen, the Birmingham men have always suffered a severe defeat at the hands of the Welshmen, but on SaturdaT there was reason- able ground for supposimg that the locals would make a good fight. Although, playing with the wind in the first half, Moseley for some time held the upper hand, they showed by their subsequent play that they were not good stayers, and Cardiff, as I stated on Saturday, fairly waltzed away in the last few minutes. *#* Pearson further justified his selection in the International team by playing a clinking game from start to finish, his dash and all round brilliancy being as conspicuous as in any pre- vious match this season, and if be plays up to his form Tommy's vis-a-vis will c. iainly have his hands full. Fitzgerald also played a good game, and was very safe, but both Elliott and Biggs rather broke up the combination by faulty passing. That there was but little combination is apparent from the fact that, though the Cardiff forwards did their work well, and obtained the ball on far more occasions than did their opponents, little use was made by the quartette of the opportunities so received. Selwyn Biggs and Sweet-Escott were certainly not to blame for this, for they rarely failed to beat the Moseley pair and get the ball away from the scrimmage, but time after time the round of passing so started would fail through unaccountable mulling. Still, as far as the result is concerned, we have nothing to grumble about, as the margin the Cardifiians won by was certainly larger than was expected, and if the forwards maintain their form to-day, and the three-quarters play up to their usual standard, there should be little doubt that Coventry will be given the right-about to the tune of a couple of tries or more. Great interest was centred in the visit of the Usksiders to Llanelly on Saturday, and, in spite of the fact that the weather was fearfully incle- ment, a large crowd assembled on the historic ground of Stradey Park. Although it was ex- pected that the Newportonians would come out on top, a hotly-contested game was looked for, it being well known that the tin-platers had made great advances of late. If the elements had been more favourable a grand eame would probably have been wit- nessed, both sides knowing that they would have to rely upon all the mettle they possessed but, with a gale of wind blowing along the field and heavy showers of rain descending upon the arena, a scientific display of football was not to be expected. In spite of wind and weather, however, the onlookers were rewarded for their presence by seeing a hardly and stubbornly contested struggle. ## The hostilities throughout were confined to cloao forward work, and ther* was little worthy of detailed description. Both con- tingents, however, stuck to their guns like Britons, and the packs, it is worthy of note, did not leave very much to choose between them. The Llanelly halves put in some smart work, but the visitors' pair certainly outshone them and proved very troublesome to the home feeders. Three-quarter play was practically at a discount, owing to the state of the ground. *#* England's exposition at full back was very satisfactory, but Every was not up to form as custodian for the tin-platers. He showed too fatal a tendency to cling to the ball, instead of getting rid of it smartly, and this error in tactics frequently gave the visitors a decided advantage. Of the other members of the teams we need only say that they put in some very hard work. Indeed, the contest frequently bordered upon the rough, and Dauncey got knocked pretty hard on his left shoulder, sus- taining an injury which necessitated his retire- ment from the field during the second half. It is to be hoped that Arthur Gould will get over the injury to his knee in time to take his place against Scotland next Saturday. At pre- sent, however, he is not at all in the ber>t of form. He sustained a somewhat severe wrench at Blackheath on the 20th, and was unable to turn out for Newport at Stradey on Saturday. Whatever may be said in comparison of Arthur's present and his former powers, there can be no doubt that he is still the prince of Welsh three-quyrters, and how his place is to be adequately filled if he really has to stand out I am at a loss to know, bnt I suppose the Welsh Union will be able to get somieone-Elliott fior preference-it it should happen that Gould cannot judiciously turn out. All interest is now turned upon the fray next Saturday at Newport. The committee of the Uskside club ha.ve no necessity Ho make any very great alterations at the ground. The accommodation for spectators is as good as on any ground in the country, there being plenty of room on the grand stands, and the tiers of platforms all round the ground are arranged for a crowd of 14,000 or 15,000. It has been decided to open the gates L shortly after one o'clock, so that there will be ample time between that and three p.m. for everybody to get fixed. Ticket-holders for the members' and the public stands will all be admitted at the big double doors first reached en the left hand along Rodney-road, and for the enclosure and field there will be eight or ten turnstiles. The Scottish team will arrive at Newport on Friday evening. The football house during the match will be the Westgate Hotel. It is very unfortunate that Dauncey got knocked about so badly at Llanelly on Saturday, especially in view of the fact that he was to have had his place in the Welsh team against Scot- land next Saturday, seeing that, on the authority of Arthur Gould, M'Cutcheon will not be able to play. Dauncey has fairly earned his place. >II< If Swansea thought they had a soft thing on with the Cardiff 'Quins on Saturday they were grievously mistaken. To be sure, the team brought by the all whites" could hardly be called a representative one, as both Thorogood and Tanner were away, but I doubt if the westerners bad bad their fulFstrength whether they would have been able to break through the admirable defence of the homesters. The Swan- sea forwards are an enigma. One day they can stand up with ease against even the redoubtable Usksiders' front rank, while on their off days, and Saturday was one of them, a much lighter lot has no difficulty in running them off their feet. The only two internationals engaged were Fra.nk Mills and Bancroft, and, in view of the big match at Newport a week hence, their play was closely watched and criticised. Mills was in as good tettle as ever, and if he plays up to Saturday's foioi is sure to give a good account of himself against the representatives of the Land o' Cakes. Bancroft again figured in the third line, and was. therefore, rather out of his element, but, still, his display was not up to whrt is expected of a man who has been chosen to fill such a responsible position as that of custodian in the international fifteen. I am more and more convinced that Bancroft is not nearly so safe as he was a couple of years age. His tackling lacks the dash and his kicking the precision which characterised it of yore, and on Saturday time after time he failed to find touch, and on two or three occasions his tackling was at fault. We will hope, however, that in the coming match he will rise to the occasion, and justify his selection by being the Bancroft of old. More I cannot say. It appears that the Cardiff 'Quins have washed their hands of Davies, their young full-back, after his recent behaviour in leaving them in the lurch against Morriston, and on Saturday he was re-placed by Elliott, who proved him. self to be in efficient substitute. I was glad to see Wilcox. the Swansea half-back, again) actively participating in the game, and now his injured limb is all right he should prove an requisition to the all whites."

Penarth "ca.me down like a wolf on the fold" on Llandaff on Saturday, and this was what was expected after their achicyement against Cardiff recently. To sum up the situation in a few words, when Penarth met Llan-Uff they found they had a soft thing on. The success of the Penarth team has been mainly attained this year through their constantly playing the same men. Some time ago Llandaff enjoyed an excellent reputation, but somehow since losing Elliott and the more energetic portion of Tit" Gibbons they seem to have come down in the scale a bit. The ground, owing to the heavy rains, was, of course, considerably out of condition, and scientific play was rendered almost impossible, but the Penarthians exhibited some good organised efforts, and completely took the wind out of their opponents' sails by the dash which they duced into their work. «< Alexander was in his best form, aud played a really smart game. It may be said that when- ever he got possession of the leather he made a point. So swiftly did he travel that he fairly astonished the citizens, who oftentimes looked completely stunned. Shepherd, too, rendered efficient service, whilst Matthews, in the teeth of a strong wind, performed one or two fine feats of goal kicking. Llandaff, who it must be said had ill-luck throughout, were obliged to play a defensive game, and, considering their stiff opponents, might have done worse. Roberts, the full back, rendered yeoman ser- vice, but many times he was left single-handed # Despite the inclemency of the weather, the game at Neath was interesting. The home team had by far the better of the argument through- out, and had it not been for the Splendid collar- ing of Adridge, the visiting full back, and the good defcnce of the Rhondda men generally, the score against the latter would have been much o-reater. The Llwynvpians treated the spectators to some clever bits of individual play, but they were deficient in combination, and when a good opportunity presented itself they failed to utilise it to much advantage. The Neath men played a good game. Of course, the state of the ground and the pouring raia precluded anything like really scientific play, but the quartette, fed frequently by Wat Thomas and Cross, handled the leather capitally under the circumstances, and discon- certed the visitors by their passing. For- ward, the teams were almost equal in strength, but the home pack were the cleverer. Moy, F. Hutchinson. A. Hutchinson, H. Jones, and M. Revnolds were the best of the home forwards, and Royal, Baynham, Atkins, and Mills of the visiting pack. Phillips was the solitary star in the Llwynypian back line. Sam Clarke proved himself good custodian. # The Pontypriddians took on Abergavenny at the Taff Vale Park on Saturday, and lowered their colours to the tune of two tries and five minors to nil. It was a win/which was deserved, the homesters throughout outclassing their opponents, whose territory was consta-ntl* in- vaded. For the .visitors, Hill at half and Barrett, Williams. Bevan, and Lewis in the pack are worthy of mention. Alun Morgan, as custodian for the homesters, sustained his reputation, and the three-qu&rters, Evans, Barnard, Green, and Williams, gave an excellent exposition of combined play. Steer and Lewis contributed a lot at half, and Ernest George. Davies, Parkins, and AckLlewellin were the pick of the pack, the former shining. The circumstances under which the Ferndale- Treorky game was played made a good exhibi- tion of football out of the question. The for- wards, who had to perform most of the work, were fairly well matched, the visiting pack, perhaps, being a trifle the better. Neither of the third lines could be expected to do very much at the same time. one could easilv conclude that this was the weakest part in both teams. The home halves fairly eclipsed their opponents. # A correspondent writes :-An incident that took place during the progress of the match at Treorky on Thursday last has given rise to a good deal of talk and bad feel hi"' in football circles in the upper part of the Ei .dda. It is stated that a prominent forward belonging to the Treorky team struck an opposing player for no apparent reason. The match was imme- diately suspended, and it is rum ared that the matter will be brought before the Union com- mittee. SCOTLAND V. WALES. 0 Important Changes Must be Made in II the Welsh Team. Mr. Gwynn, secretary of the Welel Rugby Union, received a communication from M'Cutcheon, who had been selected to play j right wing- three-quarter, intimating that busi- ness engagements would unfortunately prevent him from assisting Wales next Saturday." Dauncey, of Newport, who is reserve wing, will therefore play. Pearson will change wings and partner Gould on the right wing. absence will seriously weaken the defence of the Welsh three-quarters.

A Hermit of the Hills. -+- WAS JILTED FIFTY-FIVE YEARS AGO. Since then Daniel Clough has Lived tfie Life of a Recluse but has I Not Forgotten. One of the greatest curiosities in the line at human freaks has been discovered in Hill Center, about ten miles from Bristol, N.H., America. There, in a small, tumble-down hut, resides Clough, the hermit." His humble dwelling is a small, low-posted, tumble-down building. Paint is minus, the clapboards are falling off, and the windows are a mixture of broken glass and rags. Through the roof projects a small piece of funnel, from which issues smoke. Close at hand stands a rickety old barn, propped up by planks and beams, save on one side, which is supported by the ground. Through the broad cracks in the side is seen a bunch of hay, a mix- ture of bushes, briars, and dirt. Recently a Boston Globe mau visited the re- cluse and found him a ragged and unkempt- looking individual. In one corner of the shanty where he lives on a small, rickety bedstead wai a confused mass of clothing, evidently undis turbed for months, save as he had crawled ia and out. In the centre of the room was a little table, on which were two plates, one or two rude cooking utensils, a knife and fork, a Bible, and the bottom of a kerosene oil stove, which, pro- vided with a small piece of wicking, and having no chimney, served as a lamp. Portions of two chairs were the only other things in the room ax* cept rubbish and a small brokeh-down stove,from which extended into the side of the house an old piece, of funnel, loose at every joint. On I the hearth smouldered an irregular piece of stump. From this, as well as from every joint in the stovepipe, streamed smoke in clouds about the room. Along one side of the room bung comforters, placed there to break the force of the wind, which enters through numerous holes. The walls and ceilings were covered with a coating of dry soot. The win- dows were so stained that it was impossible to see through them. Mr. dough's regular diet consists of a batter of flour and water, fried in pork fat without seasoning. This extraordinary individual possesses a good education and is a ready talker. Disap- pointment in love is supposed to explain his mode of living. "Yes," he said, "there was a girl in the southern part of the State whom I used I love, and, in fact, love new. Was engaged to her once, but while I was away for several months her father died, leaving her some property, and another young man scooped her, money and all. She is a widow now, but I don't suppose she would be content to come here to live with me. This roof has sheltered me 55 years. I am now an eld man, 79 years old, and cannot expect to live much longer. Am living on borrowed time now. Expect to cross the shore before long and hope to find a better home. If this shanty should burn I should leave of course. I sleep with my clothes on each night to be ready for an emer- gency, and also to be able to get up to close that door, which continually blows open. He had no timepiece or means to reckon dates. It was suggested that he cared nothing about the days of the week and month, where- upon he said with emphasis "Yes I do. I want to know when Sunday comes. That is the Lord's Day, and I plan to rest, I spend much of the day reading the Bibk and worshipping by myself. I have the advan- tage of the average man, being able to read 01 rest whenever I choose." Mr. Clough spends his time working about the buildings and land.

LOCAL AMUSEMENTS. "Blue Beard" Still Running at the Theatre Royal. Blue Beard is now running its last lap, and those who wish to see it in at the finish must, in the choice language of the Yankee, "hurry up." There is one pleasing feature about the Royal Pantomime. Unlike most pro- ductions. it does not become stale with repeti- tion. Kitty Kenway, the Cardiff girl, has established herself as a, prime favourite, and her dainty dancing is much admired. The present week is partly given up to the benefits of the principal artistes, and enthusiasts will, no doubt, muster in great force to enjoy the extra attractions which will characterise the various benefit performances. Wednesday is devoted to the eccentric and popular comedians the Brothers Edgar, Llewellyn Lloyd takes his on Thursday, and on Friday little Miss Kenway is thr benenciare. Cardiff Empire. The latest development of Mr. Stoll's enter- prise has taken the form of an eng'agement of the powerful troupe of Dahomey Amazons, 50 in number. These have oreated no small stir by their exhibitions at the Crystal Palace, and various Metropolitan music-halls. Gumma, the chief of the Amazon warriors, as well as many other members of the troupe were lately fighting against General Dodds in the recent French war in Dahomey. The Amazons are accompanied by a large retinue of Dabomeyan fetishmen, soldiers, cooks, and musicians, which collec- tively form quite a small army. Besides the Amazons, the following artistes will appear :— Mdlle. Rosa, the only feminine ventriloquist; Hugh Dempsey, the celebrated Irish comedian and dancer; Violet Temple, "The Fisher Girl"; Hyde and Elton, acrobatic panto- mimists; Frank Adams, comic vocalist; the Wartenbergs inimitable Japanese equilibriste. and finally, Foster, Wallace, and Foster, thr" genuine comedians in a military bnrlcsq1 The Defaulter." Cardiff A) ham bra. Managing-director Harrington and his co- directors have arranged a splendid trea.t for their patrons this week. The chief item of the nightly entertainment will be the spectacular sketch Bonnie Scotland," in which nearly 108 Cardiff children, trained, educated, and drilled by the Selkirk Family, will appear. The Two Macs, the famous knocka-bomt comedians, well known to Cardiff, are also engaged, and the other artistes are :—Daisy Walker, serio-comic vocalist; the Chard brothers, duettists and danceis Laura Leavitt, an American lady with powers of imitation; Bobell. the marvellous wizard; Gertie Sfcuncliffe, vocalist and dancer and Aho and Ah-i. dental gymnasts of celebrity.

The new engagements for this theatorium* are -The Sisters Leslie, exceptionally swee: vocalists Carlotti the juggler Ernest Trew bridge, baritone vocalist; the Musical Cosmos i the Ouaglieni Troupe, Kings of the carpet" t and Professor Peterson's well-tramed dog's in a comic sketch that was productive of much amu^meut last week. The Aztecs have lost none of their attractiveness. The bearded lady, Devouo's optical illusions, and the various other exhibitions are on view as usual- Professor Allaby is still retained to read heads and bumps, and the weekly competitions will be held as usual.
