PUPIL TEACHER SHOT.
== PUPIL TEACHER SHOT. A SENSATIONAL OCCURRENCE AT SWANSEA. On Wednesday afternoon a pupil-teacher, named Wm. John Evans. shot himself in the Victoria Park, Swansea, and was immediately afterwards picked up by some bystanders and taken to the Swansea Hospital in a serious con- dition. The inj ured" youth is the son of Mr. Peter Evans, well known in the town from the fact of his being head boots at the Royal Hotel, whilst his mother keeps a newsagent's shop in Nelson-street. The patient has not yet described the occurrence, but was at first .under- stood to say that it was accidental. All that is known about it. therefore, has been gathered from those near at the time. Shortly before three o'clock three or four boy a who were playing in the park on the Mumbles side of the Baths saw Evans go and sit on one of the seats near them. They saw him pull a. pistol from his pocket and purfi it up under his waistcoat on the left side. When they heard the report and saw that he had been injured, they ran for assis- tance. Some young men who were standing on the London and North Wesfeprs Rttilway Bridge also heard the report, and saw the youth fall to the ground. They ran up into the park and found Evans lying in great pain and bleeding profusely from a wound in the side. Close by him was a revolver, with five of its six chambers still loaded. He could not bear to be touched, and when the police arrived swore at them be- cause a cab had not been fetched. An ambulanoe truck was sent for, and he was taken to the hospital. At the hospital great difficulty was found in stopping the bleeding; and the patient's condition was evidently serious. Mr. Evans was employed at the National Schools. Oxford- street, and had attended to his duties under Mr. W. H. Gwynn that morning as usual. From a letter on Evans's person It would appear that. suicide wa6 coolly and determinedly intended. The letter, after stating that he was perfectly sound in mind and was about to put the finish- ing stroke to his life, made some philosophic observations, and concluded — "We get no chance as to whether we would be born or not. but are launched into the world to face all manner of trouble. This. however, in some degree is compensated for by the fact that an intelligent Creator has furnished us with means whereby we may shorten man's allotted span. I intended doing so last Tuesday, and took some laudanum, but the d d staff would not act, therefore I was forced to put off my project until this afternoon. That I may be successful in the attempt, is my most earnest prayer.
LICENSING LEGISLATION.
LICENSING LEGISLATION. MORE AMENDMENT BILLS INTRO- DUCED. A Bill to amend the law relating to the licensing of beerhouses and places for the sale of cider and wine by retail in England and Wales h-as been prepared and introduced to the House of Commons by Mr. Herbert Lewis, Mr. Courtney, Mr. Crosield, and Mr. Snape. The object of the Bill is to give to the licensing justices the same discretion in dealing with beerhouses and cider-houses that they now possess in regard to fully-licensed public-houses' and other places of refreshment. As the law now stands, the discretion of the magistrates in regard to this class of licensed housee if very limited. The justices cannot refuse to renew the licence of a beerhouse which has been in existence since 1869, except upon one or other of the following ground?:—(1) Tlie cluu-actetrof the applicant, (2) disorderly conduct of the house, (3) previous bad conduct of the applicant.and (4) want of qualification on the part of the applicant or his premises. The dis- cretion which it is sought by the Bill to give to the justices the latter already possess as regards fully licensed public-houses, and ar regards also beerhouses themselves if licensed for the first time since 1869. It has also been accorded to them by recent Aots of Parlia- ment (the Beer Dealers' Retail Licenoes Acts, 1880 and 1882) as regards other minor kinds of licenoes, but the old beerhouses have bean left in an anomalous position. It is this anomaly which t.he Bill is designed to reottfy. In the same House a Bill to amend the law relating to lioenoes for the sale of intoxicating liquors has been prepared and brought in by Sir Henry E. Rosooe, Mr. Jacob Bright. Mr. W. Crosfield, Mr. Robert Leake, Mr. W. Mafther. and Mr. C. S. Roundell. The Bill is divided as follows:—(1) Reetrictioiio on licences, (2) sale of licences, (3) power of m/o. payers, (4) appointment of inspectors, and 15) clubs. As to the last, it is proposed that the provisions of Section 3 of the Licensing Act, 1872, with regard to the prohibition of the srJe of intoxicating liquor by retail without a licence, shall extend to the s-ale of intoxicating liquor in any club. unless the club is regis Used under this Aot. The licensing, justices for each licensing district shall keep a. register for the purpose of the registration of cluljs within their distriot. and the secretary or other officer of every club shall, before such club is registered, pay to the licensing justices a r«ri8feratico fee at the rate of 5 per cent, on the total receipts of the club fiom the sale of intoxicating liquor during the vear ending on the last preceding 31st day of December, and the like fee annually at such time as the licensing justices shall fix. A Bill to amend the Licensing Act, 1872- introduced into the House of Loads by Lord Norton, has also been printed.

A Murder and Suicide.
A Murder and Suicide. TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IX AS RESTAURANT. ¡ Quarrel Betweep Brothers in L^ve- Witl^ the Same Lady Leads to Killing- A small party of two men and two women came into a. restaurant in New York the other night, and. shaking the snow from their cloth- ing. walked up the little flight of stairs leading; into the dining-room or supper-room. No one in the saloon proper had seen them, becaase, chey had entered by a side door. Mrs. Meycroi the proprietress, was busy at the lunch oount.eri at the time, and when she heard a. call froaaA foe rear, told Freddie Huber, the bar-tendf*^ to see to the customers. The iour sa» at th»4 table peareert the door. The two men Freddie) had seen before, and be knew they were Spaniards, even though. they ware the dress of business men. The elder of the two. stout" and florid, with a brown moustache, sat neaxeeto" the door, by his side sat a. fair-haired girM dressed in red. with an opera cloak thrown-; over her shoulders. Facing her was her com-, panion, all olive-skinned brunette, dressed al- most entirely in black, and by her side sa* the second of the two men, slighter built and darken than his friend on the other side of the tabiea Thus the two men were directly facing each- other. Freddie say 6 that they were all talking in a tongue which he supposes w be Spajiiah., When he went into the room for the second time with the plate of chope and the beer. whttch had been ordered, the girls were throw-: ing bread at each other, and the mea Wem': laughing at them. Five minutes more had"- < gone »"hen from the re^taaiian* room time* | shout of fright or rage. a shriek,, and then 'three revolver shots fired with- out a pause echoed through the There was a dead silence. Then, before any one< could fairly recover their stunned senses, thw^ two women had rushed down the stairs out atl ihe side door, and were lost. Mrs. Meyer re-1 oover-d he,, voice, and screamed. The police 1 were in the place inside of three minutes. So, 1 too, was the ambulance surgeon. But thejri were too late. The two men were dead. Oi»i had Lhot the other and killed himaetf. JPapeM; found on the men told at lca^t part of the story--j The larger of the men lay with his head towards^ the door leading to the saloon. Under bis araa^ was a black, five-chambered revolver, tiuMM chambers discharged. A bullet hole in hign forehead accounted for one shot. A shot nri the abdomen of the slighter man, who lay the other side of the table. about 3ft. awayj accounted fdr the second the third bullet fired? at him liad struck the wall, glanoed off, was buried in the floor. -The man with th.eo\ revolver, who had fired the shot&, was Don i Ernesto Marquise, of Guatemala. The mscii whom he had killed was his younger brother^ Enrique. The murderer was thirty years old.3 The younger was 26. This much was lea.rnd from the papers found cn them. ( Police-officers were at once told off to search* for the wom«*r ef whom were, arrested later. They were Minnie Moere, 27 years ol<U and May lll7e. 29, and, according to the story; which they told. Ernesto, the elder brother"; that fwt his brother, then hiuujelf. and that cause of the shooting was jealousy. Miss Moore, spoke freely of the afhtr. but Miss IVN; refoarfp to say anything. Miss Moore explained ttafc there bad been a love affair between heraelf aad* the younqer brother, Henrique, for almost foue; vears. The elder .brother she had only kmowft; during the past few months. But the moment that Ernesto saw Miss Moore he iwesim iafa- tuat^d, and from that moment there was bacb blood between the brothers. Foreseeing that« quarrel would place her in an embarrassing; position, she suggested the introduction of a»< friend, and Ernesto was accordingly present**# to Miss Ives. But Mis? Ives failed -to fill the, place in hi? affection tlta.t Ernesto believed) Miss Moore would, and a weefcsf ago Ernesto* told Miss Moore 80.. On the night of the shooting the two womett! 7 (re at the rooDI" of the brothere at five o <nock. They remained there until eight o'clock, when4 they left to go to the restaurant. A 6hort-i time before they went, a curious thing pened. The women lid not. think much of <t' then, hut they have cause to remember K 6inoe. The brothers liad some words,which the women did not hear. The brothers then saad they, were going to indulge in a little sword prao- tiee. They used hea*-y blades tbA* they kept- always at hand, and they practiced so long and so furiously that the women became frightened.. At last Enrique was OOdly out in the necfc, and then they stopped and said a few words to each other which their companions could 1IiCS). hear. It is new the belief of the women thafcj tlie brothers were fighting a duel before thea^ The quarrel in the restaurant arose quickly. j Fj-resto was anxious t'o accompany Miss Meott from the place. It is possible that the dwl- had been for the possession of the woman Mtd the wound which the elder brother had lafliotod* may have given him the privilege for wkicfc he asked. But at the first, suggestion of the younger brother grew enraged, jumped ut< his feet, and slapped his brother full in thfr face. Ernesto drew back and held up his aim? as though to protect himself. As he did 80(; Enrique picked up a bottle from the table mads- hurled it. The borele had not yet struck iW side of the room when Ernesto's revolver in his hand and he had fired a shot which toofci effect. There was a, great scream from Mia* Moore just os another shot rang out, and. tW younger briber dropped to t-be floor mortally wounded. Thp two women rushed towards the (kiOr. but bc-fore they could "do so they -aw Ernesto place the muzzle of the revolver- in his mouth and fire. This explains IaøÎ peculiar wound, for the bullet passed cteM- thiough his faead and tlirough his hat. WVaif arrested. the women eaid that they had nothing to hide, and that they would have notified tiw police, but they did not know how to act, aDd were afraid that they in some manner rnigkto be held responsible for the death of the brother, Miae Moore is a. handsome woman, tail, grwo- ful, 8Dd well educated. She speaks Spanish, which ahe learned from Enrique. She says, that the younger brother her that he and his brother had committed acts in Guatemala I that prevented their ever going back. I

YOLUNTEERS DANCING.f
YOLUNTEERS DANCING. f AN ENJOYABLE BALL AT CARDIFF PARK-HALL. One of the most enjoyable balls held each season at Oardiff is that organised by the sergeants' mess of the 3rd V.B. Welsh Regi- ment, and the one which took place all Friday night was no exception to the rule. The ba.1I was held, as usual, at the Park-hall, which was nicely furnished and decorated. On the platform was the Maxim-Nordenfelt gun belonging to the regiment, and rifles with fixed bayonets were piled at intervals. A quantity of bunting and some drums com- pleted the decoration. A large company assem- bled, and the scarlet uniforms of the soldiers, mixed with the evening dreas of the civilians and the gay and delicate colours worn by the ladies, made a pretty picture- The floor was in good condition, and Bandmaster Johnson provided some of the prettiest and most tuneful music which could be wished. Among the officers present were:—Colonel Goldwmid and Quartermaster Tiunock (Depot, Welsh Regiment), Major Jones, Major and Adjutant English. Captain Fowler. Captain Enc-or, captain Morris. Captain Thompson, Captain and Adjutant" 33ann<ii'ma,n-Phillip, Lieutenant Wilson, Lieutenant Martin, and Lieutenant Gilling (of the 3rd V.B. Welsh Regiment). Lieutenant Caple. Quartermaster Xewman, Captain Tudor Thorn ie v (S.V.D., R.E.), and Lieutenant Vivian (2nd G.V.A.). i BY OUR LADY CORRESPONDENT. I The season would be, indeed, deficient if the redcoats had not their annual dance. The Park-hall and crush-room were devoted to their service on Friday night, and were well filled by the sergeants, their officers, and friends. Neither time nor trouble had been spared to make the evening- a success. The prettily got- up programmes had been carefully compiled. The M.C.'s wece assiduous in attending to the ladies, and looked very smart in their me-se jackets aud white waistcoats. The hall was well decorated with draperies, fans. and palms. the orchestra being quite a trophy of flags, ferns, and guns, with the little Maxim gun in the centre. The supper tables were profusely decorated with plants and wreaths of smilax. The ladies prosent were one and all prettily dressed. A white brocade, with blue velvet butterfly sleeves and bertlie, was the first we noticed to be ad- mired. A very pretty girl wore black with ifreen sleeves. White dresses preponderated, relieved here and there with every possible tint and hue. We noticed among the ladies that a great preference was shown for "redcoats." "Please introduce me to a partner, and let him be a redcoat," said a gay young matron to us, and forthwith we found her a sprightly little sergeant. The catering was most ably under- taken by Miss Sansum; she having previously taken her diploma in cookery, it could not have been in better hands. The dancing was kept up till a late hour to the strains of Mr. John- son's excellent band. and this was certainly one of the jolliest and pleat.anient dances of the season. The balcony was full of spectators. The scene was particularly pretty from their point of view. the different uniforms giving it a brilliant appearance.
AN AMUSING EPISODE.
AN AMUSING EPISODE. STRANGE DISAPPEARANCE OF MR CHAMBERLAIN. The Central News says :—for some time prior to the division on Sir Henry James s motion on Thursday Mr. Chamberlain appeared to be ill at ease. There was considerable excitement while the House was being cleared for the division, but, if the member for West Birming- ham had not by tha.t time decided tpon his line of action, there was still plenty of time for him to do so. That which ensued constituted the crowning episode of an eventful night. When the doors were closed the right lion, gentleman was undoubtedly in his place, and the doors being locked and the keys in the pos- session of the attenda-nts it was obviously im- ixitsible for him to escape from the Chamber, but, though seen to leave the House with the Ayes," he was not observed to pass the wicket with Sir Henry James and the minority, and. of course, could not then be in the crowded ranks of the majority. Further and finally, his name did not appear in the official list of mem- bers who voted. How Mr. Cliamberlain made away with himself is not exactly a. matter of conjecture, but his sudden aural infirmity on Friday, which prevented Mr. Brunner's ques- tion from reaching him, has deprived the publio of his personal account of his adventures. The lobbies which are used for divisions are, theoreti- cally, closely sealed, but there are certain clots eta which to gentlemen of resource and readiness of movement offer prompt release from sudden embarrassment. Some years ago a Welsh Radical, still in the House, took refuge in one of those cramped havens, and by some means got fastened in during the division, with the result that he remained a prisoner for several hours. Mr. Chajnberlain evidently fared much better, for he got clear away. Sir Henry James is reported to have shared the momentary sur- prise caused by the sudden disappearance of his chief.
)EXTRAORDIN Any SCENE.
)EXTRAORDIN Any SCENE. TANDEM DRIVING, FOOTBALL, AND GOLFING ON A LAKE. An extraordinary scene was on Friday wit- nessed on Bala Lake, which is nearly six miles in extent. The ice wa.s so strong that Mr. William Owen, proprietor of the Royal White Lion Hotel, drove tandem with a large party across the lake and round it, in the presence of several thousand spectators. Football, golf, and other games were also freely played on the lake, amid scenes of great animation.

WELSH CHunCH DEFENDERS
WELSH CHunCH DEFENDERS A DIVISION AMONG THE PARLIA- MENTARY LEADERS. Our London correspondent, telegraphing on Friday night, says: — A new development has arisen in count e- tion with the Welsh Disestablishment Bill. As I was enabled to inform you several days ago, the Opposition leaders had decidel not to divide the House on the first reading. On Friday, however, a meeting of the Church party in the House was held, Sir Richard Webster in the chair. The Church- men, more militant than. the politicians, decided to oppose the Bill tooth and nail at ex cry step, and to take a division on the first read- ing, and wherever possible. I am bound to say that this decision has met with the expressed disapproval of Sir Michael Hicks. Beach and certain others of the Tory leaders, old Parliamentary hands ail of them. The position taken up by Sir Michael and his friends is this—that although, when, as last year, tfce Bill-wad .iatouduoii -Oiefefiy -■« a wild kite which no one expected to pass, it was quite a justifiable step to take the division on the urst reading this year, when the Bill is introduced as the first legislative item on the Government pro- gramme, with which it was seriously intended to proceed, it would be only fair to extend to it the usual courtesy of an unopposed first reading, such as even the Irish Home Rule Bill received. Notwithstanding these hostile opinions, the Parliamentary Churchmen will proceed with their spirited policy. Mr. Secretaxy Asquith, in depreciation of pro- longed debate, and possibly in anticipation of unlimited coercion, intends to introduce the Bill in an unusually short speech. Ministers give out that it is to be very much the sajne Bill as last year, but, I believe, when it is printed there will be found in the tfc»t of the measure a umiiber of sentible if not radical, changes. THE DISESTABLISHMENT BILL. PROPOSED REFERENCE TO GRAXD COMMITTEE. Some of the Radicals intend (says the "Even- ing Standard. ) in the coming debate to urge on the (Tovernment that both the W felsh Disestab- lishment Bill and the Irish Land Bill shall be referred to Grand Committees, in which, the nationalities conCt-rned axe to be granted special representation. There is no prospect, however, that the Government will assent to the sugges- tion, as it is recognised that a proposal of this sort would meet with so much opposition as to render it impc^sible to secure its adoption. THE BILL-THE WHOLE BILL. The "Pall Ma-ll Gazette" says :-We have more than once pointed out that the Welsh Dis- estoblifchmeflit Bill is a source of some discom- fort to those who should be its warmest fi-iends. They axe afflicted with an awful dread that the Ministry are not as sound upon the subject as they ought to be, and that modifications will freely be made in order to conciliate some doubt- ful members of the party who may, as Mr. Chamberlain on the other side does, lean to mercy. The "Christian World" this week is at great pains to explain that the Welshmen really must not be cajoled into accepting any- thing less than the original Bill, and the whole Bill. ft is especially shocked at any prospect of treating the clergy with ttK- measure meted out to their Irish brethren. The marked re- vival of the Irish Church is conclusive evidence that this must not happen. Wliat would be the value of Disestablishment and Disendowment if the Church rose from the Wreckage and asserted herself anew? Obviously nothing. Wherefore the "Christian W orId" proceeds to warn the Ministry bhus :If any attempt should be made to re-model this part of the Bill into con- formity with the Irish Church Act. we repeat that we hope it will be resisted even to the sacrifice of the Bill and the destruction of the Government." But, perhaps, all this bluster is only a. device for opening.. backdoor of escape. ——————»
ICHANCE FOR SIR E. J REED.
CHANCE FOR SIR E. J REED. TO DESIGN A BIG CRUISER WHICH WILL COST HALF A MILLION. The "Realm" says :-The secret, well kept for some time, has now leaked out that a syndi- cate has been formed, engineered mainly by Mr. Harvey, of armour-plate renown, to build a 10,000-ton cruiser to the design of Sir E. J. Reed, ALP., at the works of the Naval Construc- tion and Annament Company at Barrow. We shall be curious to find out the design Sir Edward Re<d thinks most appropriate for a modern first-class cruiser. It would have been more interesting if the syndicate had arranged with Sir Edward Reed to design a battleship. The new cruiser will cost closse on half a million sterling, and will be sold, we imagine, to the highest bidder.
