ARCHÆOLOGIOAL DISCOVERY. Supposed Existence of a Marsh Village near Cardiff. Some little time ago considerable interest was manifested in archaeological circles by the reported discovery of a. prehistoric marsh village near Glastonbury. During the course of exca- vation several huts were unearthed, together with a quantity of wattle work, a quaint canoe, and a. number of wooden implements. The pre- sence of such an encampment within a compara- tively short distance of South Wales led Mr. John Storrie, the ex-curator of the Cardiff Museum, to believe that such ancient remains might exist in this locality, and for some weeks be has been making explorations with gratifying results. At Ely, Mr. Storrie has discovered indications which t-Artd to the supposition that a marsh village once existed on the present racecourse. He has made careful note of the spot, and communicated a resume of his observations to several members of the Cardiff Naturalists' Society, who have approached the landowner and obtained per- mission to make further investigations. Of course, owing to the superficial nature of the researches up to the present, nothing definite can be stated, but it is believed by several archaeological experts in town that the discovery may have important results. Preliminary exca- va.tions will be made on Friday next, and. should the examination prove satisfactory, a fund will be raised to carry out the explorations in a proper manner.

WILLENHALL VACANCY. Rector Rosedale Acoused of Ultra- Ritualistic Practices. The Rev. C. G. Knox Gillespie, curate of Shirbeck, Lincolnshire, is the latest addition to the contestants for the Willenhall incum- bency. Muoh prejudice is being stirred up against Mr. Roseda.le, he being accused of ultra-Ritualistic practices and the burning of incense in his church, letters having, it is alleged, been received in Willenhall in which these assertions are maintained. On Monday an extract from a letter from one of the sidesmen of Canton Church was published, and denies emphatically these statements. The Rev. Fred W. Ford was his own chairman at his meeting on Monday, he having failed in obtaining one. At the hour of opening there were hardly 50 present. He explained that lie had family connections with the dis- trict, but had little encouragement to contest the position, having received no invitation. These considerations he did not wholly ignore, but he held that the people should have a preixmderatiiig voice in the election of their pastor. He disclaimed all personal hostility to any of the candidates. The meeting was far from being enthusiastic. The Letter from a Canton Sidesman. The following ie a copy of a. letter received by Mr. G. Parkes. 26, Lower Lichfteld street, Willenhall, from a gentle- man at Cardiff, answering questions about the Rev. W. E. Rosedale, M.A. — With reference to your request, I know Canton Parish very well indeed, having had seventeen ,ye:ll's' experience of it, and for the last four years have been one of the sidesmen of the parish ohurcli. Incense has never been burnt in either of the churches in the parish, and never even spoken of: and, as I said before (in my previous letter), the services are bright and congregational; no ritual at all.

IMPORT TRADE IN CARDIFF. New Warehouses being Erected for the Bute Docks Company. The imposing structure situate at the east side of the East Dock, Cardiff, erected under the supervision of Mr. J. Straclian for the Bute Docks Company, is now almost com- pleted. The building is in stone, and measures about 200ft. in length by 80ft. in width, and is, apart from the basement, six storeys in height. It is to be used as a warehouse, and the internal arrangements are on the most improved and modern principles, including hydraulic lifts and cranes for the purpose of discharging cargoes. We understand that the company contemplate also erecting a transit warehouse at the bottom of the v est side of the West Dock for the French fruit trade. For many years Cardiff has l)een struggling to foster an import trade, and, as the buildings referred to will be devoted to import trade purposes, there is every likelihood that other organisations will follow the example set by the Bute Docks Company.

SUSPECT CAPTURED AT BARRY. Information was received at Barry from the Newport police on Sunday with reference to a man said to be assuming the sobriquet of "Ca.pta.in Hall." who WitS" wanted for obtaining money and wearing apparel under false pretences at Newport and Penarth. On Monday evening as Police-constable H. Hill (404) was walking his beat in Dock View-road, Barry, he saw a man answering the description given of the accused. Constable Hill followed his man to the Barry Railway Station, where he saw him enter a coach of the 6.15 train to Cardiff, and arrested him. The man gave kis name as George Thomas, and said he was 32 years of age, and a second mate. When arrested Thomas said lie was not the right man. The constable took his man to the Barry Station and afterwards to the Central Police-station, from which place he will be roafco red to Newport this fTuosdavimoraina.

WELSH REVOLT. Disestablishment Bill to be Introduced in the Commons Next Week. A private telegram from the House of Com- mons on Monday n ight states that the 'AeNh Disestablishment Hill will be introduced next veek, probably on Tuesday. Major Jones Interviewed. A Press Association "cpresentaive has nterviewed Major Rowland •Touts. M P., a nember of the forward section of the 1 oung Wales" party, who says he has not joinwi its colleagues (Messrs. Lloyd-George. 1). A. rhomas, and F. Edwards) in their revoH )ooa-use he has always held that any indepen- lent action of the Welsh party should tje ;aken only on a clear, distinct, and uomis- :akable issue. Such an issue is not raised ipon a mere question of date for the first reading of the Welsh Diseetablisliment Bill, especially ae they have a general assurance that the Government will do their best io »irry that measure through the House of Jommons before the close of this session. Scottish Members Retaliate. The Press Association adds that on Monday ivening there was some talk in the lobby of an n form al representation from certain Scotch Liberal members to the Welsh representatives hat if any substantial number of the latter vithheld their support from the Government prol)o,ti for a Grand Committee on Scotch jusiness they might probably find many of the icotuli members indisposed to co-operate with them in support of Welsh measures. The nembers for the Principality attach little im- portance to these threatened reprisals, which .Ley scarcely exjject to be seriously carried into jtfeot, especially as not more than three or four jf them arc likely to withhold their support. Resolution of Support. At a crowded and enthusiastic public meet- ing held at Dowlais on Monday night 'esolution approving of the conduct of Messrs. David Thomas. Lloyd-George, and Frank Edwards in taking independent action in consequence of the precedence given by the Government to the Evicted Tenants Bill and other measures over Welsh Diaest-ablishment was carried with enthusiasm.

BREACH OF PRIVILEGE CASE. Sir W. Ingram Explains to a Private Meeting of Liberals. The Press Association t-ays that Sir William Ingram confirms the substantial accuracy of the report of his explanation to a priv ate meet- ing of the Liberal Association at Boston with reference to the facts to which it is understood that, Mr. Pritchard Morgan will call attention in the House of Commous to-day (Tuesday) as a question of privilege. Sir William states that Lord Maciiaghten's Bill, which iiassed through the House of Lords, and was for a time blocked by Mr. Perks in the House of Commons, was introduced entirely without reference to the case in which contention arose between Sir Edward Watkin and the Ingram family concerning certain property. Sir William Ingram add? that if jMr. Perks does not fully explain the circumstances under which he was induced to block the Bill he will himself address the House and state the whole facts of the case. The Act of Elizalytli was passed for the purpose of protecting creditors against frau- dulent gifts, and was obviously not at all in- tended to apply to such circumstances as arose in the present instance.

LATE FATHER BUTLER. As in Monday's "Evening Express" the funeral of the Rev. Father Butler will take !>lace on Thursday at tlue Cardiff New Cemetery. The Right Rev. Dr. Medley, Bishop of New port and Mei.evia. will officiate. The fur.eral will be a public one. Formerly stationed at Dowlais and Merthyr. and frequently visumg those places, a« well as other Catholic missions in the diocese, deceased waf widely known and everywhere re&pected. The Irish popu- lation. it is expected, will turn up in large foroe at the funeral, while other sections of the public will vd-o. no doubt, be there to 'ay their last- tribute of respect. The folloiv.ng telegram, en behalf of the mayor and cory'.na- tion in London, was rfceived on ^xonday by Father Bailey. St. Peter's, Cardiff: -Fat-her profoundly grieved on hearing of Father Bugler's death; a faith'w' servant gone to his reward. —- Councillor Thomas."

CARDIFF CORPORATION BILL. The Opposition Before the Standing Orders Committee. The Examiners having reported certain n on-compliances with the Standing Orders, the Cardiff Corporation Bill came on Monday before the House of Lords' Committee on Stand- ing Orders, presided over by Lord Morley. Mr. Andrews appeared for the cornoration, and Mr. Rees, Mr. Frere, and Mr. Spence appeared for the memori.-ilists against the Bill, among whom were Lord Bute and Lord Tredegar. At the conclusion of the legal arguments. Lord Morley said up to the present he had heard no excuse whatever for non compliance. Air. Andrews thought the noil-compliances were so few. Lord Morley said they were extremely nume- rous and grave. Mr. Andrews observed that they could only say they had sinned, and ask to be forgiven. He did not think their lordships would allow a corporation of the importance of Cardiff to suffer- Lord Morley said an important corporation like Cardiff should take bare io have people to look after their Bills who knew what the Stand- ing Orders were. Mr. Spence. on behalf of Lord Bete, said he could not speak at any length without going into questions of merit, and he would, therefore, content him- self with saying that Lord Bute asked their lordships' Blouse not to dispense with Standing Orders in this case. and urged them especially to eliminate the betterment clause. Mr. Frere, on behalf of Lord Tredegar, said the promoters of the Bill suggested the elimina- tion of certain clauses in consequence of non- compliance, but they should also eliminate the betterment clause, which was the greatest non- compliance of all. The room was then cleared, and when the public were re-admitted Lord Morley said the Committee had deter- mined that the Bill might proceed subject to the following amendments:—Clause 22 to be omitted; that Clause 30 be modified so that all reference to open spaces and powers to charge for admission to parks. &c., on special occa- sions and for skating be left out; that Clauses 49, 57, and 60 be omitted; that Clause 66, re- lating to private estates, be omitted in so much as the powers related to existing streets; and that Clause 71 be omitted. So far as the de- posit of plans is concerned, the Standing Orders are dispensed with.

LATE MISS GREENFELL. Numerous Suggestions as to a Proposed Memorial at Swansea. A public meeting, convened by the Mayor of Swansea, was held at the Town-hall, Swansea, on Monday afternoon to consider the question of raising a memorial to the late Miss Grenfell. In the absence of the mayor, Mr. J. Coke Fowler presided.—Mr. F. S. Bishop explained the various proposals which bad been made. The first was that a new tower to St. Mary's Church should be named after the deceased lady. Then Mr. Glyn Vivian had written to Lord Swansea suggesting almshouses at St. Thomas, a pro- posal which Lord Swansea approved. The third was one which he (the speaker) strongly recommended, viz., that a public nurse for midwifery and other cases be endowed for the district of St. Thomas. If a sum of £1,250 could be provided this could be done.-The Rev. P. Wolfers opposed the suggestion for a nurse, and said the almshouses would be a more tangible memorial.-Dr. E. B. Evans spoke in favour of the proposed memorial window in St Thomas and the endowment of the women's institute in Grove-place.—Mr. Drew. a secretary of Miss Grenfell's societies, spoke in favour of central Christian institute or miniature Exeter- hall in Swansea, which, he supposed, could be erected for £ 1,000—Mr. T. P. Martin proposed postponing their decision till after they had ob- tained funds.—Councillor W. Evans thought the public would readily take up with the establish- ment of a ward at the Swansea Hospital.—Mr. Herbert Monger suggested a Mary Grenfell contribution to the parish church restoration fund.—The Vicar of Swansea said he thought the town might to be appealed to to decide be- tween the ward scheme and the nurse scheme, both of which he supported.—Mr. T. P. Martin moved a resolution to strike a large committee to consider the matter and report to a public' meeting to be held.—Major Lewis seconded, and the resolution was carried.—The committee was then appointed.

FIRE IN BIRMINGHAM. Firemen Gallantly Rescue Twelve Persons. A terribly exciting scene was witnessed at a. tire which broke out at the Globe Restaurant, Bull-street, Birmingham, at half-past three on Monday morning. Twelve persons were sleep- ing al the top of the house when the alarm was raised, and they all crowded to the window anc* screamed frantically f9r help. Just u" T,h"'y wwe being enveloped in flames a,nd werti preparing to jump into the street tlie escape arrived, and they were rescued, many of them being quite unconscious.

Ncrtb Carolina, relates the following marvellous storj of himself. The disease is called by physiciam "acute desquamative dermatetis." He has shed his skin entirely thirteen times in twenty-four years, which is immediately replaced by a new one as tender as a baby's. Before the shedding begins his body turns red and he has every symptom of scarlet fever. Instead of the skin coming off in small patches, one can it just as though you would from any animal. When 14 years of age he shed his skin twice in one month. The change takes place aDd is over in two weeks. The new skin that forms is so tender that it is impossible for him to walk on a carpet or rough floor, and he has to use an oilcloth, and has at times removed the complete skin from his feet, and used them for slippers, as he found them more comfortable and easier iining than anything that could possibly be made or purchased. After several of these attacks, his toe and finger nails came off with the skin and new ones immediately took their place, and his hair has also come off, as in an attack of scarlet fever. He haa been able at times to break the skin off the palm of the hand and blow up the skin of the arm like a balloon, showing that it was thoroughly loose from the new formation. He has with his own hands removed a piece of skin from between the knee-cap and thigh as large as the front of a. vest.

H LIVING PICTURES." The Novelty at the Empire Attraoti Crowds of Curious Cardrffians. The "Tableaux Vivants" boom which soma months since emanated from the Palace Theatre, thanks to the astuteness and experience of its veteran director, Mr. Charles Morton, and rapidly spread itself through the length and breadth of the Metropolis, has at last reached Cardiff. That many thousands of Cardiffians are habitues of our local Empire, in obvious from the crowded state its auditorium usually presents. These will, in the ordinary oourre of things, feMt their eyes with rapturo upon the sumptuous spectacles which confeitute the living pictures produced on Monday iftght. But it is well that the whole of the inhabitants of tha town, or, at least, the readers of the "Evening Express, "if that is not a distinction without 3l difference, should lie made aware of the ex. ceptional treat within their reaeh. There is no higher educating influence than the appeal through the eye to the mind and heart. But until this principle is put into practice, its power is not fully appreciated. When our prospective Gallery of Art is m ac!»inphehed fact, it will afford far more gratification than the amount of regret its inexistence now occasions. Of the truth of this, reflective visitora to the Empire this week will become deeply sensible. On Monday night, when the curtain rose to strains of melody from the orchestra conducted by Mr. Burgess, who. by-the-way, M responsible for the exceedingly appropriate and effective music which accompanies the picture^ and disclosed the tableaux representing Venus de Milo" the crowded audience was stricken with astonishment. It may be conceded a* once that the dazzle of light (there were 508 jets ablaze) and the richness of turquoise colour- ing in contrast with tiie alttbiistiir status stand* ing out on a marble terrace, all set in an immense and massive frame of gold, afforded a sight the like of which for beauty, artistic- delicacy, and brilliance, judging from its re- ception, surpassed anything that the great majority of the spectators had ever before beheld. Many who had seen and felt the charm of the Palace pictures found their feel- ings equally affected. None present could resist the fascination. Yet this was but a, prelude to the more pretentious portrayals im- minent. "Nature's Mirror," from Paul Thuinann's picture of an ideal nymph gazing at her reflection in a bright, sunlit stream* was a startling realisation of the great work. How the effect is obtained is most mystifying. The blending of Art and Nature is so complet* that it is practically impossible to discern where the one begins and the other ends. Mr. John Watson, who has executed the whole of the scenic effects, has revealed ability which he certainly has not hitherto received the credit of possessing, however high the estimation in which he has been held, and which his splendid record at the Theatre Royal, Birmingham; the Prince's Theatre, Bristol; a.nd his America connection with Dion Bouoicault amply justi- fied. The third tableaux representedLuke Filde's clever and pathetic picture entitled. "The Doc- tor." This touched the hearts of all. The emotions of the assembly, already played upon and now easily plastic, found contagious the human interest which the picture contained. The weeping mother and the pallid father^ the kindly doctor, and the dying ohila tohi the little story with a silence more eloquent than words. The onlookers grasped the situation intuitively, and mere admiration of a work of art gave place to a feeling- of earnest sympathy with the humble cottager* in a common sorrow of every-day life. Nydia^ the blind flower girl, in the minds of tome, awoke tender memories erf the afBipie.! ana self-sacrificing girl in Bulwer Lvtton s clevot novel, "The Last Days of Pompeii, and from all elicited applause and exclamations. But the fifth tableau, a reproduction of Con- rad Kiesel's picture, "Touch the Harp Gently,^ wa-s the artistio triumph of the serie. The mass of detail in this exquisitely beautiful picture commands unalloyed admiration. A, falling leaf, a wayward rosebud, the minutest fold of the flowing robes that adorn the oiassio f(,riTi,, of the gentle musician, her friend and her slave—everything is produced with scru- pulous exactitude and art. The tOtlt eneemble merits the most generous praise, and was ao- corded an enthusiastic demonstration of ap- proval. The sixth of these wonderful pictures represented Robert Gibbs's work, entitled "The Last Request," the touching subject of which is so well known. It evoked loud applause, and brought to a, close this most creditable exhibition. IVJort piotures are in prepa.ra- tion, and during the week old ones will I-o k-hanged and new ones added. Those who 'avail themselves of the opportunity of seeing these tableaux will find, in having done sOt matter for self-congratulation. Any who an given to scoffing at the supposed inanities o music-hall entertainments wili find here 4. feature embodying rare artistic taste and skill*- ingenious mechanism, and poetry, music, sculp. tuve, and painting in happy commnnion. None will find aught at which to cavil with regard to the remainder of the programme. D. J. McCarthy increased his already extensive popu- larity with several new character sor.gs. on4 of which was conspicuously successful and vers cleverly rendered. The Jackson Family, in severs^ musical numbers, were vigorously applaudedt and well deserved their hearty reception* George Ripon is a. capital singing comedian ? his burlesque, impersonation of an Irish-French- man with a Scotch accent tickled his hearers immensely. Miss Ada Fawn :is a. descrip- tive singer took the house by storm. Mist I Flo Penlev. whose style reeembles that of her tutor. Miss Katie Lawrence, and is, therefore, charming. wa« also warmly received. and Yoyce in a comic sketch, entitled 'Rival Reporters," created loud laughter, and the clever dancing of Miss Rosie Blonde came in for a fair share of the gene>ral oppreeiaiiw.
