Mrs. Ormiston Chant. THE LADY LECTURER AT CARDIFF. Discusses the Novelty of Music-halls and Says She Doesn't Object to Swearing. On Thursday afternoon a number of ladies and gentlemen, at the invitation of Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Moxey, attended a drawii-g-room n.eetrng held at Thorverton House, Newport- rc&d, Oardiff, and there listened to an address delivered by Mrs Ormiston Chant.—The Rev. Camon Thompson, who presided, introduced the spbaker, and called upon those present to do all in their lto-ver to aid the association of Wieh Mrs. Chant was so prominent a member. Mrs. Chant said that when, not many months ago, she was engaged m teaching modern his- tory and v riling v hat slio found of the many acts of philanthropy tha.t had been achieved by such women as Mrs. Elizabeth Fry, Mary Carpenter, Floml Nightingale, and Miss Josephine Butler, she had no idea that in so short a spaoe of time she woul 1 herself be en- gaged in so great a mission. as her present one. And not she herself alone, but each one present MRS. 0. CHANT. I should receive the opportunity faithfully and gladly of vieiog with each other in doing all in their power for the good of their feflow- creaturee. The work that they had to do meant far more than the possession of a music- ball licence—far more than that. England was divided into two sides—one for and one agsinst. She wished no cry of heresy to be raised because they did not agree with her on thi^or that point, and not to taboo or to refuse To take interest in the cause she was about to lay before them. She wished it to be understood that she believed in laughter. She believed laughter had a medicinal value. To be an apostle of laughter should be every man's aim. The faculty of laughter was as necessary as the faculty of prayer or worship. It was slow work to get all men to believe as she did on the matter. There were even some who thought they had rom- mitted a sm when they had seen the point of a joke. The National Vigi- lance Society had no wish to sweep away music and dancing from the music-halls, but it was what makes dancing, acting, and music a dis- grace that they would not tolerate. To achieve their purpose it was necessary that they took up the matter in a spirit of sympathy, a,nd not in that of a superior person. As long as such an innocently senseless song as "Linger Longer Li-cy" was capable of giving enjoyment to 800 •people, as she had seen it do but the other night, let such songs continue to be sung. But when the theatre and music-hall stage came to be exploited by profligates who drew a big divi- dend, then it was time for reform. She had cften heard it remarked, "Oh, such-and-such a music-liall is not a fit place for Mies." If it was not a fit place for ladies it was not fit for gentlemen. There should be one standard of amusement for both sexes. How were they ro extend a helping hand to the fallen women around them. Thay must not approach them as superior Indies, for as such they can have no hold upon the hearts, but they must save them by winning their hearts. They must all form a great league of love, and extend their influence to all around. In that girl who was singing that night at the Empire Music-hall there was just as much to love, just as much to save. She was exposed to many dangers. Many \verc the letters she had received from muaic-hiill acts-eases saying that everything was done to smooth down the edges that modeMy raised. The domestic servants were equally in need of their sympathy. It was a fact that the great majority of female criminals came from that class. There was too great a barrier between the kitchen and the drawing-room. Another body of women whose condition ought to be amended were shon girls. It was scandalous that many girls should have to stand behind a counter with but a few hours' rest from eight o'clock in the morning till ten o'clock in the evening. The question of amusement for our girls should be earnestly considered. She did not mind confessing that* she was chairwoman of the Ladies' Cycling Club, and she advo- cated all kinds of. outdoor amusements for women in the enjoyment of which men should join. The swearing and blasphemy laws ,3 had been in force for some time, and they had done little good. She candidly admitted that she saw no harm in a good hearty, swear; it relieved the feelings which might vent them- selves in something worse. What would be a great deal more beneficial than laws against swearing would be laws preventing the hoard- ings to be emblazoned by some of the obscene posters which adorned their streets. Referring again to the evils of music-halls. Mrs. Chant told how she had on manv occasions visited the chief London music-halls, and there seen the evils of the promenade. It was no unusual occurrence for a man to put down a sovereign -and she had seen so much as a L5 note- without receiving one penny of change. She was not prepared to say where the balance went, but it certainly did not return to the owner's pocket. It was, indeed, a temptation for girls who worked all day for 17s. a week to see the gaily-dressed and painted and powdered women coming -out of the musio- halls boasting of making £ 30, j640, and L50 a. week. These evils, with many others that she had not had time to refer to, it was the object of the National Vigilance Association to put an end to. A vote of thanks to Mrs. Chant for her address, proposed by Mr. Percy Thomas, was carried unanimously, and the meeting con- cluded with the enrolling of several new ,memben; to the association. In the evening Mrs. Chant delivered her second address of the day at the Park-hall, before a fair attendance. Mr. John Cory, J.P., presided.—The Secretary I Mr. Pike) read the aniiual report, which was a most satisfactory one.—Mrs. Ormiston Chant, who, on rising, was received with prolonged cheering, referred, in the course of :m eloquent .-ipeeoh, to the great good done by the National Vigilance Association in preventing the ruin and down- fall of the girlhood of England. There was a time when fcteamers, specially engaged for the purpose, busily plied their trade from Liverpool, London, and Hull carrying English girls to Frajsoe and other foreign countries. Happily, such things were carried on but rarely, although it wae not long ago that the association were enabled to prevent a vessel from leaving a. Northern port while members of the association went on board and brought ashore several young girls, who were going to their ruin on the Con- tinent. Mrs. Chant, after speaking in humorous terms of the action of the association in the case of the Empire Music-hall, asked how it was that the taking of the licence away from that particular place of amusement had caused such a great stir. She very much suspected that this special case had been commented upon for the simple reason that t!he Empire was backed up by wealthy men, who were receiving their 75 per cent. from the hall.-The meeting concluded by the passing of a vote of thanks to Mrs. Chant aaad to the local branch of the National Vigilance Association for the good work they had done during the fisst year.

RADICAL MISRULE. EXPORTS AND 1MPOBTS NINE MIL LIONS LESS THAN LAST YEAR. That the unemployed question will not brave the peddling and plotting which is the Govern- ment's way of dealing with it is borne out by the Board of Trade returns, issued on Thursday. for the month of February. They show that the imports declined nearly six millions for February, and seven and a half millions for the two months of the year. The exports have declined a million aad three-quarters on the month, and not quite as much for the two months, while the total volume of trade is seven and a half millions less in February and over nine millions on the two month's. It must be borne in mind that this enormous decrease is, in comparison with an extremely bad year, the { worst of three years of persistent decline since the present Government «m« iiito office.

CARDIFF EXHIBITION. A MEETING OW THE FINANCE COMMITTEE. A. meeting of the finance committee was held on Thursday at the exhibition offices, 98, St. Mary-street, at whieh there were present Messrs. Lascelles Oarr, J. B. Ferrier, S. Medhurst, E. Handcock, jun., C. Clarke, John Jenkins, J. G. Todd (hon. treasurer), and Walter Cook (hon. secretary). The first busi- ness of the meeting consisted of the appoint- ment to the important offices of chairman and vice-chairman of the committee, and it was re- solved that Mr. Lascelles Carr be elected chaar- man and Mr. J. B. Ferrier vice-chairman. The question of the form in which the new guarantee should be taken was then fully dis- cussed, and a form was settled upon. This will shortly be sent round to the present guarantors for signature. It was determined to ask each of the present guarantors to at least double his present guarantee, inasmuch as the minimum amount of the guarantee fund has been doubled, and the risk will be precisely the same as before. It was mentioned that in a number of cases the present guarantors had done much better even than this.

CARDIFF THEATRE MY AL. MR. ARTHUR ROUSBEY'S BENEFIT TO-NIGHT. Mr. Rousbey's benefit comes off this (Friday) evening, in which he will appear in the title role of Verdi's tragic opera Rigoletto," which has a very strong cast. It is hoped that there will be a large audience to show their appreciation and gratitude to this artist, who has brought to Cardiff during the last fortnight an opera com- pany of so superior a character. It is not too much to say that, taken all in all-the prin- cipals, conductor, chorus, orchestra, stage scenery, repertoire, &c.—Mr. Rousbey's com- pany is one of the best that now visits Car- diff. The chorus consists of excellent singers and many gifted artists of exceptional vocal and dramatic abilities. The performances during the visit have been of the highest order, and such as should entitle Mr. Rousbey to a bumper house. To-morrow (Saturday) afternoon at 2.30 will be presented the remarkable and thrilling tragic opera of Cavalleria Rusti- cana." The singing and acting of Miss Dalle is dramatic to a high degree. In the evening Balfe's popular ballad opera, The Bohemian Girl," will bring the present visit to a close.

THE LATE MR. T. H. ENSOR. In our report of the ueafth of Mr. T. H. Eosor we stated that Dr. Hardyman was called in on Sunday. That was not so. Dr. W. Hunter Richards had been attending Mr. Ensor for some time, and on Monday afternoon, find- ing that Mr. Ensor was suffering from bron- chitis, ordered him to bed. On Tuesday morn- ing Mr. Ensor felt better, but in the evening pneumonia made itself manifest, and Dr. Richards immediately sent for Dr. Ensor (the deceased gentleman's son), who arrived at. one o'clock in the morning with Dr. Hardyman The three medical gentleman agreed that Mr. Elisor could only last a few hours, and he passed away quietly at ten ooiock- on Wednes- day morning.

INFANTICIDE CASE. BODY OF A CHILD FOUND IN THE SNOW AT NARBERTH. On Sunday, the 24th of February last, a butcher, named Alfred Mabe, was crossing a field near Wood Office, Narberth, when he saw the body of a child in a gap in a. hedge. Naked and frozen, the body appeared to have been gnawed by some animal, and presented a grue- some spectacle. Polioe-sergeant Phillips, of Narberth, being sent for, took the body to Nar- berth.. Near the spot where the body was found- there were indications of .gipsies having been encamped, and suspicion fell on two women of the gipsy class who had been seen in the neighbourhood. In Wie meantime an inquest was held, when evidence was given by Dr. Price, Narberth, who expressed the opinion that the child had had a separate existence, and had died, probably, through the neglect of those responsible in not properly tying the umbilical cord. The jury returned a verdict to this effect, adding, "But under whait circumstances or who are the parties connected with the death of the said child there is no evidence to show." The police, however, arrested two gipsy women near Solva. Their names were Elizabeth Jones and Catherine Jones, her step-daughter, who were brought before the magistra-tes at Nar- berth charged with causing the death of the child. The elder prisoner was liberated on bar! but the younger c who admitted having given birth to the child, was removed to Car- marthen Prison. On Thursday the prisoners were again brought before the magistrates at Narberth. the.follow- ing justices being on the bench:—Mr. It. H. Buckley. Mr. Robert Ward, Mr. Seymour Allen, Mr. G. P. Brewer, and Mr. R. G. Lewis. Mr. W. Morgan Griffiths, Solicitor, Car- marthen, appeared to prosecute (Hi behalf of the Treasury, and detailed the facts of the case. The two prisoners had been travelling the country in a. van belonging Ho the elder prisoner's hus- band. About the 4th of February they were encaanped on Sogeston Mountain, and. they then proceeded in the direction of Narberth, finally encamping in a quarry, in the parish of Narberth South, On the way the younger prisoner, Catherine Jones, was taken seriously ill, and she had occasion to go into the van. Nothing was seen of her that day till the even- ing, when she came out of the van and sat groan- ing by the camp fire on the roadside. On the following day she went with her step-mother to see Dr. Price, at Narberth. She was very weak and feeble, but Dr. Prioei did not examine her then. After encamping in the quarry near Narberth for nearly a. week, the prisoners and the encanmment left the neighbourhood, and nothing was heard until February 24, when Alfred Mabe found the body. The elder prisoner denied all knowledge of the transaction, and said she knew no- thing whatever of the birth of the child. At the police-station at Nar- berth, the younger prisoner, Catherine Jones, made a statement to the police-sergeant that on or about the 4th of February she gave birth to the child, and- after the first magis- terial inquiry, on February 28, she voluntarily made the statement:—"I was took bad on the road from Sogeston Mountain, and had the baby on the road, and I put it inside myself. My father and mother were calling in the village at the time." Dr. Price had had the child's stomach sent to the analyst at Swan- sea, but the result of the examination would have no bearing whatever on the inquiry. Evidence was then given in support of the above statement by Alfred Mabe, Polioe-ser- geant Phillips, Polioe-constable Wheeler, Catherine Lloyd, and Superinteodent Evans, Pembroke Dock. Dr. Price, Narberth, said he found the child in a frozen state, while its left side had been eaten-gnawed by some animal. He found, however, no bruises. The lungs were rosy and vermilion, clearly indicating that it I had lived and had had a separate existence. It was. a fully-developed male child. The lungs floated in water when tested- He was of opinion that the child had lived for an hour or two. The contents of the stomach were frozen. The umbilical cord was not tied and the ends were torn, so that the bleed- ing therefrom might have caused deaAh, espe- cially in face of the severe weather, which alone was sufficient to cause death, for there were about 20deg. of frost. The body was clean, j and seemed to have been waehd. On the 6th of February both prieonere called upon him. The younger one was cold and shivering and M a. delicate etaite He gave her medicine,. and told her to go to bed. He did not examine her. On the 28th of February he examined her at the police-station, and dis- oovered evidence dearfy indicating she had recently been delivered of a. child. Mr. C. A. Seyler analyst, Swansea, who bad examined the child's stomach, said it con- tained no matter which could have caused its death. The Bench committed the prisoner Catherine Jotes to take her trial at the next Pembroke- shire Assizes, on the charge of wilful murder. As for the eider prisoner, Elizabeth Jones, there not being sufficient evidence against her, she was discharged.

A Priest Brutally Killed GREEW-FOR GOLD CAUSED THE CRIME. Father Antonia. Rose was Cut Down in His Study, "But the Murderers Have/been Arrested. From Iquique the following details have been received concerning the murder of 1 ather An- tonia. Rcsa, a Catholic priest of the Jesuit order, at the Antofogasta Mining Company's settlement in Bolivia, seven miles from the Chilian frontier: -Fa.ther Rosa was a. native of San Francisco, and at one time was an active worker among the poor and destitute of this state. Not much is known about him among the local Catholic clergy beyond the fact that the dead curate was nearly all of his life en- gaged in misekmory work among the tribes of Alaska and Arizona and the Indians of Cali- fornia The good father's parents were Spaniards. Dominioa. Rosa settled in Sonoma over sixty years ago. They were among the very first white people who touched foot on Sonoma county soil. The most interesting part of the rather eccantrio prieet's story is not his early history, however. The foul manner in which he met death has inspired the Bol,ivian authorities to action, and they have caused the, arrest of some twenty Chilian navvies and miners, who are responsible for Father Rosa's murder. The details of Father Rosa s assassina- tion are as follow:—Just before Christnms the settlement, which the natives called Oalloa, was celebrating the feast of the village saint. Fat-her Rosa, the priest of the village, an American, who came to Bolivia about live years ago, led in the festivi- ties. Father "Rosa was rather a peculiar man. He was beloved by all his parish, and especially by the .native Indians, but he was somewhat incentive about his personal affairs. It was re- ported at Antofogasta, and understood pretty well among the miners, that he was n mail of considerable wealth. He was supposed to have thousands of dollars hidden i: his house. When the celebration commenced Father Rosa. senrt a ooorier to the town of Ollague and to the mming settlements near Antofogasta, just beyond the Bolivian frontier, to the workmen to join his parishoners. The invitation was accepted by scores of good Indians, white peo- ple, and miners. Among the latter were twenty or more of the hardest class of natives that Chili is productive of. They came armed with their long knives, and with firearms, and they were bent on making trouble, it was evident from the start. Father Rosa returned to his house in the early part of the day and gave himself up to study. He had closed the heavy blinds of his windows to shut out the noise of revelry^ and had thus isolated himself from the crowd. As evening drew new, the oelebrators retired to a point several miles from Father Rosa's house, where a grand feast was being held. This wat the opportumty the Chilians were awaiting. The desperadoes surrounded the priest's house and attacked him in his room. They tried to force him to confess that he had money hidden on the premises. On his ■ protesting, he was out down from behind by a. blow from a machetta. He fell forward an hie face on a table, and in a trice he was hacked in, a terrible manner by lus brutal foes. The navvies took a large sum of silver aaad gold out of the drawers of a desk, aud, after rifliM the place and the little church close by, murderers fled in haste toward the ChlMp frontier. When the feasters returaed, they dis- covered that their devoted leaden had beea killed. Their rage was awful to witneee. EvetW maa seized eome sort of a. weapon and started on the trail of the fugitives. Twenty Bolivian Indians and several miners took the lead, and succeeded in running the murderers down at Ollequa, at which place a mob formed and the prisoners would have been massacred had not a body of Chilian troops charged the crowd' and rescued the men. There were eighteen of, the nrurderers in all. They were hurried to a prison, and remained there until Chili turned them over to Bolivia. It is expected all will be hanged.

TAFF TALE COMPANY. MR. MATTHEW COPE'S ELECTIOBT ON THE DIRECTORATE. Considerable interest has heen taken in com- mercial circles in the alterations on the Talt Vale Board. The resignation of Mr. D, A. Thomas caused, it is rumoured, by the diversiow of the balk of the Cambrian Collieries' traffic to Barry, was a. great loss to the Taff Vale Rail- way, already so much weaker than its rival ia respect of its influence on coal traffic, and a pood deal of speculation naturally arose as to wbak the Tatf Vale Company would secure in substi- tution. The communication published in oar issue on Thursday has caused some comment, the general opimon being that the Taff Company have done very well in securing Mr. Matthew Cope. The new director, in addition to his position as chairman of the Albion Com- pany, is the owner of other large collieries 08 the Taff Vale Railway, and directly centrals upwards of 1,000,000 tons of coal per annum. It would be extremely difficult to find another freighter of equal importance who is net already tied to one or other of the local companies.
