ANNUAL OUTING. News of the Worid Staff Gets a Pleasant Day at Dorking. The fifty-first annual outing- of the employes of the "News of the World" was held on Tuesday at the Star and Garter Hotel, Dorking. Mr. G. A. Riddell, managing--director, presiding- in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Lascelles Car:, chairman, which wa; greatly regretted. The vice-chair was occupied by Mr. W. J. Innes C Pegasus"). In the morning a'cricket match and athletic sports were held, after which the company, adjourned to the hotel where a capital dinner was provided. In the afternoon further races and athletic sports followed and the evening was devoted to speeches. An excellent programme of music was gone through. The progress made by the paper during the year has been most satisfactory under the energetic management of the directors and the able editorship of Mr. Eaisiey Carr. During the twelve months just ended the circulation has in- creased by one-iifth. Various enlargements have been made in the plant and premises, and the illustrations have now become a more im- portant feature of the paper, which is now the iargest huridar newspaper in Great Britain. A feature of the gathering was the presence of several employes who have been engaged on the paper since its start, more than half a century ago. The proceedings, which were most enthusiastic throughout, terminated with hearty cheers for the firm.

WELSH TIN-PLATE TRADE Aican and the Liverpool Press. TO THE EDITOR OF THE li E VENI XG l:X!'RESS.' Sir.—As one deeply interested, not only Sir.—As one deeply interested, not only financially, but a,s a large employer of labour in the tin-plate trade. I appeal to you to stop the insertion of articles such as that of "Tin- plate Trade" appearing over the liom-de-plume of "Alcan" in your Monday's issue. Let the Liverpool press do as it likes, upon the inspira- tion of interested parties or otherwise, but do not you, with yo-ur large circulation through- out South Wales (the centre of the tin-plate trade), forget that you have the power to damage one of its main industries by t-, -o hastily lending your columns to tco detailed discussion. If "Alcan" feels it his duty, on behalf of the men, to reply to the Liverpool "Daily Post," who, lie considers, holds a brief for the employers. let. him cea^e now he has done so. I am not going to correct his nume- rous errors, because to do so would make still more. public those details which are perfectly weill known to all those directly interested. Our police are exceedingly clever men as a rule. How often do they not compel conviction of prisoners by putting them in contiguous cells and listening to their conversation ? America is even ''cuter" thaA our -police, and, having already quite sufficient knowledge of the Welsh tin-plate trade, may, for all we know. de.sire to obtain absolute conviction through the Liverpool "Daily Post." As an interested pn.,riv, I recommend the prisoners to k"ep silenco.—I :1tT!1, £ o., rneDEXCE. Sept. 3. .1

WELSH LAND COMMISSION. More Testimony in Favour of the Landlords. The members of the Welsh Land Commis- sion resumed their sittings at Ruthin on Tues- day, under the presidency of Lord Carri]iU"ton, and sat from 3.30 in the morning until six p.m.. and during that time the bulk of the evidence given bore testimony to the good relations existing ljetw-mi landlord and tenant. Several viinesses gave :t glowing account of their tenantship under Mrs. Nay lor Leylatid, of N..rtclwyd Hall, and Colonel George Mouatty, agent to Mrs. Nay lor Leyl-and, said the estate ,-a. managed in a most considerate manner, and in the course of his statement he showed that a land court would prejudice the interests of lioth landlord and tenant. In answer to question from the Chairman, the witness said he considered the tenants were a hard-working class, and many of them had greatly improved the farms. The income hist > tar only amounted to £ 700. after paying all charges, rates, taxes, and tithes. Mr John Parry, of Llanarinon, who was pro- minently cGinuected with the fc-rmaticn of the Welsh Land League. produced correspondence showing the strained relations--iesulting in lis leaving the. farm which he was working wiih his broth°r—which occurred between his: wiih hi" broth°r—which occurred between his: landlord and himself ill consequence of the part he took in the agitation. After further evidence, the fiither hearing 1\W; adjourned.

Mr. Morris stated that the Y stalyfera Board had taken the question in hand. They had presented a report, and as an outcome there were three proposals before the board, viz., to utilise pre-<ent institutions, to an institution of their own. and to ask the co-opeicition of other boards to assist in the matter. With few ex ceptions. every board in the district had replied favourabb* to a circular sent out asking them to attend a meeting. He ashed that the matter should be referred to a small sub- committee. -— The Clerk (Mr. Franklen) remarked that the Act- was purely elementary, and the council had r.o power to spend money on elementary education or for children who were receiving elementary education.

HIS VIRTUE OF SILENCE." The Globe and Mr. Lloyd-George's Dilemma. The ''Globe" says:—Mr. Lloyà-George, :.M:P., understands the virtue of silence- He still refuses to explain or apologise for hi? statement in the House of Commons that the Welsh bishops issued circulars to the clergy inviting them to procure the cooking of the census returns with regard to the use of the Welsh language, and that it was upon the cooked returns thus obtained that the Registrar- General grounded his returns. Now, as the Rector of Llandudno points out in a latter to Mr. George, of which hp has sent us a copy, the bishops have declared that they issued no circular; therefore, the clergy could have taken no action upon such a document. The Regis- trar-General, moreover, says that he received .or EO inforn-uition from the bishops, and, there- fore, could not have incorporated any in his report. Such a. flat contrauiction would seem to demand an explanation or a, frank retracta- tion from any self-respecting man. bur Mr. Gtoige remains obstinately silent. The only attempt he has made to answer v. hat has now become a very serious charge indeed wa.s in ';1;-¡ interview v. ;t'. 0 rejV'Tter, in j which he said viiat the published summary of I his speech illtl not fairly represent it. adding1, however. I know that inquiries were made by the cler<rr. and the results sent to the Regis- tinr-Cc-rieral." As to the first point.. H:msa.rd" agrees tvith the 1Jew;:papers, expressly mention- ing the Bishop of St. Asaph, about whom Mr. George told the reporter that he did not say 1 that he had issued a circular, and as to the second we have the Registrar-General's denial alreacly quoted. The question, row to be answered is. Who speaks the truth? Are we to believe the bishops and the Registrar-General or Mr. Lloyd-Geornfa? 7TT!=

Stabbed by Satan, EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF A MIDNIGHT ATTACK. -His Majesty Came gfrom the Infernal Regions but the Victim's Descrip- tion was Exaggerated. This is the story of a demon. The demon has "long, streaming hair, bia- staring eyes, and the faoe of Beelzebub's first cousin. He stands in doorways in Madi- son-street and pounces down on passers-by with a blood-curdling shriek, like the wail of a lost soul. Then he jabs a knife into his victims and ycils with demoniac laughter, this way. I "Ho! lio!! ho! Ha! ha!! lia! The first time the police heard anything ':c;¡1;out hini was the other night when the clocks were striking: twelve, and ghosts and goblins were crawling out of graves, and owls were hooting and bats were flapping their wings. Then it was that James Green, Z2 years old. of 93, South Sixth-street, Brooklyn, walked into the Madison-street police-station and showed the sergeant at the desk a stab wound in his shoulder. It wasn't much of a wound, and a surgeon from the Gouverneur Hospital quickly ban- daged it up, bnt when Green described how he received it everybody's hair stood straight up. He had been visiting- some friends at 170. Madison-street, and just as he left the house the fiend, with Ion, streaming hair like writh- ing snakes, and fangs for teeth. and fyea glittering with the fires of the Inferno, swooped down on him and buried a long glittering blade in his shoulder. "Wonderful:" gasped the sergeant. Detective Herriich. who is big and has a superb moustache, and who isil t afraid of I demon?, wa.s sent out to find this one. He didn't succeed, and in the morning he said that he believed Green had been stabbed by a little Italian shoemaker, who liasn t a single stream to Iris hair, and whose eyes don't stare at all.

PRIVATE POST-CARDS. Explanation by the Postal Authorities at St. Martin's-le-Grand. When the Post Office authorities intimated that the public would be at liberty on and after September 1 to send private post-cards DO speeiad directions as to size or thickness were g-i ven. In order to test the matter the editor of the "Westminster Gazette" posted cards of various sizes to that paper, some of which sizes to were parsed and delivered, and some of which were stopped. A representative of that journal has had an interview with one of the othc als at St. Martin's-le-Grand with reference to the matter, and gives the result of the conversation in Tuesday's issue- Speaking of the regulations, the official in question said hat we were most anxious to avoid was too great particu- larity at first. We want to make the existing postal card the model so far as we can, but before laying dov,u -.t-.iugen laws ve *•"?"* t<" j see what the public demands. As "xmipiirui s reach us we shall be able to lorni ail opinion as to what is desired and desirable. The post- masters will have to be instructed in cases where thev make mistakes. And I may tell vou that., 1 we are now being consulted by manufacturers, 4iid others. Numerous suggestions are before, us. What we do is to ask that the new private card shall, for die convenience of the depart- merit, conform much as possible to the old tv-ne. Take the first card mentioned on your list- It cannot lie said to approximate to the older type. It was seven inches long uv two, inches 'wide. I should say it was absolutely inadmissible, and I am glad that tne post- I--ts masters in both the E.C. and the W.C. aistrn-ts refused to pass it. It was a nionstroiuy. bodv wants it. Nobody has asked ior tt. Now, as to tll" cards thicker than the ordinary cards, they are prohibited by the regulation as it stands. No L-ards arc to be thicker than our whit? postcards. Millboard is out of the question. Cards thicker than the thickest issued by tin department ougnt- to be Eur- cliarged. The points gathered from the conver^ahon are thus set out by the representative of the "^l^There is a iin.it as to the eccentricity p»r- rnitted as to the length of postcards but. the wise men of Aldersga-te-street will not yet say v hat it is. Their inclination is to encourage the old forms of curd. 2 There is also a well-defined imut to the thickness of the postcard— it must not be thicker than the old white card cf the depart- ment. 3. Ordinary correspondence cards are aarnis- sihie ladies' visiting cards are admissible gen- tlemen's visiting carof are not admissible. 4. St. Martin's does not feel equai to de- ciding whether thicker paper is card on the same dev as it concedes the right of way tfk ooiTespondenoe and ladies cards, but wilS deride if a Whatman paper card is sur- charged and brought before the Secretary.

A DESPERAf E BATTLE. Sixty of the Niger Company's Em- ployes Killed. The Pall Mall GazeHe," in its extra, special edition on Tllesday evening, says Private dispatches received to-day from Asaba, in the Niger territories, mention that there has been desperate fighting, and that 60 persons ic the company's service have been killed and wounded. This report is believed to refer to the fight in which. as stated by the Central News on Monday, Captain Lalor, of the Royal Marines, was danyerously wounded. The Foreign Office up till seven o'clock on Tuesday evening professed to be without information on the subject, although there is no doubt that im- portant dispatches had been received from West frica.
