The plot is disclosed in five acts, in each of which are thrilling incidents represents tive of Russian political life and descriptive of the horrors of Siberia. The company is a strong one, and includes the favourite Hebrew comedian Mr. John Lawson, who will appear as "Trolsky." Other well-known performers are Mr. M. H. Hoffman, Mr. Ralph Croyden, Mr. F. Seddon, Mr. F. Oswald, Mr. Fountain Allen, Miss Amy Nevada, Miss Lizzie Turner, and Miss Sidney Irving. The piece is elabo- rately mounted,' and should attract crowded houses throughout the week. GRAND THEATRE, CARDIFF. Another treat of exceptional excellence will be provided at the Grand Theatre this week, in the new musical costume comedy, "Dorcas," by Messrs. Hairy and E. A Paul ton. The ecmedy has achieved great success in America, and wherever it has appeared in this country it has met with an enthusiastio reception. The company is an excellent one, and includes such well-known artistes as Mr. Charles Fisher, late of Carl Rosa's and D'Oyly Carte's Opera Com- panies, and Miss Florence Morrison. The music is by H. Farmer, Audran, Solomon, and Woodville, and, needless to say. it is sparkling and pretty, some of the selections being of an unusually high order. ??? THE EMPIRES. CARDIFF. If the old saying is true that "variety is charming patrons of the Cardiff Empire should be easily satisfied with the programme pro- vided this week. The premier position is occu- pied by the Collinson Sketch Company, whose performance has only to be seen to be appre- ciated. Another strong turn is that of Harry Le Martine, lightning dancer; the Sisters Poole, duettists and dancers, and Miss Jessie K. Giles, ballad and serio-comedy vocalist. Probably the most laughable turn will be that of Billy Seward, the "pathetic black." Other performances will be those of Edward Ind, Phil. Herman, and Miss Jenny Sydney. NEWPORT. The chief item on the bill of fare at the Nevport Empire -this week is the performance of the Milon Marvels.

BEARD-SHEARING CASE. DEATH OF THE ARMY VETERAN, EDWARD BALDWIN. At the last meeting but one of the Cardiff Board of Guardians complaint was indignantly made by Mr. T. H. Thatcher and other mem- bers that an Army veteran, named Edward Baldwin, of 5, Davis-street, Cardiff, who had been attacked with a fit of apoplexy and taken to the workhouse, had had his beard, of which he was prcud, unwarrantably cut off. The blame was attributed to one of the subordinate officials, and the house visiting conitaittee was deputed to investigate. At Saturday's meet- ing of the board it was stated that the com- mittee had not yet met, and Mr. Frank Bea-van informed the members that Baldwin was ex- tremely ill and not likely to recover. The poor old man passed away on Saturday night at his residence, to which he had been removed after staying only a short time in the work- house infirmary. The deceased, who was 69 years of age, enlisted in the 31st Regiment in 1844, and in the following year embarked for India, where he joined his regiment in the Punja.ub, and went through the Sutlej War under Sir Harry Smith and Lord Gough. He was present at the battles of Ferdzeshah. Allwal, and Sobraon. Returning home in 1849, Baldwin served in Ire- land during that troublesome period, and in 1853 he embarked for the Mediterranean. The 31st went to the Crimea in May, 1855, and joined the aeoond division, then under the com- waand of £ ii .lohn. Iiyh.ther. Baldwin went through the campaign, being present at the capture of the Quarries on the 7th June, and also in the assault on the Redan on the 18th of June and the storming of SebastopoJ on the 8th of September. The deceased watt discharged in 1857 with a pension. For his seivices with the colours he was in the possession of four bars and the Sutlej. Crimean, and Turkish medals. After his discharge from the Army Baldwin entered the service of the Bute Docks Company, remaining in their employ for a period of about 27 years.. Baldwin, it may be stated, was the oldest veteran present at the banquet in Cardiff in November last, and was introduced by Colonel Gold-mid. In his last illness Dr. De Vere Hunt atteuded on vhe patient till the last. The funeral takes place on Thursday, leaving Davis-street at 2.30 in the afternoon, the cortege proceeding by Bute- terrace, the Hayes, Queen-street, and Rich- mond-road to the cemetery. A wish has been expressed that all veterans in Cardiff, Penarth, and Barry, as well as the friends of the clo- ceased in the Bute Company should attend the funeral.

HYPNOTISM AT CARDIFF. FURTHER LETTER FROM PRO- FESSOR MORRITT. To the Editor of the "Evening Express." Sir,—I observe that Dr. Horder considers I have not sufficiently answered the statements he made in his previous letter to you. The doctor apnears to be quite oblivious to what is but an ordinary logical deduction, viz., that if an assumption is wrong a conclusion drawn therefrom must be also wrong. Dr. Horder having assumed an incorrect theory of the phenomenon of hypnosis, has, for some inex- plicable reason, arrived at the unfounded con- clusion that my subjects will, at some future date, undergo serious degeneration of their mental faculties if they allow themselves to be continually operated upon. If the doctor had been more specific- in stating his reasons for drawing such conclusions he would then have afforded me the opportunity of pointing out the fallacy of his theories as applied to practice. I must, however, give a most emphatic denial to the doctor's statement that Eames had a con- vulsion of an epileptic character; the idea is quite erroneous.. Wh^n.-I aroused Eames from his prolongeef hvpnoSo sleep on Saturday last he merely exhibited the same start of surprise or alarm that any ordinary person would when awakened unexpectedly from a deep and natural slumber. Dr. Horder refers to my experi- ments in most discourteous terms, but this I attribute to a; characteristic prejudice- It may, 'however, be as well to inform this unenlightened doctor that my experiments have already met with results which portend to be most bene- ficial to the community at large. There are row three recognised rchcols of hypnotism—the School of Paris, the School of Nancy, a.nd the School Salpetriere. Each of tlwse schools has its different theories and Drs. Charcot, Luys, Dumontpallier. Braid, Carpen'-er, and Liebault are the leading professors of tli r schools. The science is gradually gaining ground in this country, and since my experiments have been given the English Psychical Society has been concerned with its phenomena. During the time I gave my demonstration at the Royal Aquarium the experiments not onl'' engaged the attention of prominent men of science and the medical faculty, but many of the nobility but several of our legislators took a deep inte- rest in them. In conclusion, I may say that I have come in contact with man' medical gentlemen, but I have found very few who are not firm (believers in hypnotism, although a difference of opinion exists as to its therapeutic value.-I am, &<x, C.

WELSH DIVORCE CASE. ONCE AT LLANGIBBY CASTLE NOW AT CAPE TOWN. In the Supreme Court, Cape Town, on Wed- nesday, March 13, an action was heard for restitution of conjugal rights, failing which for divorce, instituted by Mr. Harold Roberts Lawrence against his wife, Mrs. Emmeline Roberts Lawrence (born Rodeu). The parties were married at Usk, Mon- mouthshire, on December 8, 1875, and there was no issue of the marriage. About 1875 it was alleged that defendant deserted the plaintiff, and refused to return to him or to restore his conjugal rights. Defendant alleged that at divers times between the date of marriage and 1878 the plaintiff ill-treated rnd behaved with general cruelty to her, and it became dangerous and unsupportable for her, and injurious to her health to continue to reside with him; also, since 1878, plaintiff had not contributed to her support, nor until the com- mencement of proceedings asked her to return and live with him as man and wife. It would be dangerous for her, owing to her state of health, to undertake a. sea voyage from England to the Colony, and she, therefore, prayed the plaintiff's claim might be dismissed with costs. Harold Roberts Lawrence, the plaintiff, deposed that he was a mining engineer lesidmg in Cape Town, and that he was married to the respondent on the 8th of December, 1875, and formerly resided at Mostyn. He was at the time under notice to leave his employers, the Mostyn CoJ and Iron Company in consequence of the works being curtailed. After marriage they went to live at Llauigibby Castle, the resi- dence of his father, and he undertook the sub- management of his father's property. In 1877 his father bought for him a metal broking busi- ness in Chester, in which he continued nine years. He moved to Uplands in July or August, 1877. His wife raised no objection, and she did not bring any money, but there were settlements on both sides. His father gave him a house at Uplands to reside in. Witness paid all house- hold expenses. Coionel Roden never in his life save him any money. He did not think he was ever drunk iu the presence of his wife, and he never in his life struck her. He knew Major Carnegie. A Volunteer dinner was given in February, 1878. Witness was a subaltern in the Volunteer regiment commanded bv Colonel Roden. Witness admitted that, like a good many others at that dinner, he "got fresh. It was untrue lie resigned becauae of his conduct at that dinner. He sent in his papers in August, 1878, because his wife had left him and he had quarrelled with Colonel Roden. He did not attempt at that dinner to stab an officer named White. He was not given to rambling and horse racing after his marriage. His wife was always delicate. At the time his wife left the house he had not lived with her as his wife for about two months. Once, when lie had been riding to Abergavenny and owing to the frozen ground did not return until about 10.30, his wife came down to the dining-room with a stick and struck him across the head. He put her into the hall, and afterwards found her lying faint in the drawing-room. The following morning she asked for forgiveness, and said she had been suffering from neuralgia, and was not responsible for her actions. He fetched a doctor, and went to Newport, where he made airangements for his wife to go to have a tooth drawn. After the tooth-drawing his wife left, according to arrangement, for her father s house, but he had no idea that she intended to leave him for good. She was at Llan- gibbv Castle for a littie time after, and he visited her there. Since his wife had left Llaaigibby Castle he had never spoken to her. He afterwards broke up his establishment at Uplands, and finally left England for South Africa in 1887 and went to the Transvaal, and. after living there till 1893, when his father died, he returned to England. He then attempted to effect a reconciliation. Coknel Roden was assassinated in. Corsica in 1887. and lie wrote his wife offering to go to Corsica for her. She refused. He would not admit it was on account of money difficulties h8 was bringing the action. He wanted to get his money free under the mar"'H,ge settlement. His wife had been fairly kind to him, and offered cnce to lend him £ 3,500. He had ceded half his rights to his brother. The evidence of Major Carnewa taken on commission, that witness had behaved disgracefully the Volunteer dinner, was not correct. In reply to the Chief Justice, witness said the evidence takc-non.com- mission in Wales had been raked up by a solici- tor named Watkms. Voluminous evidence taku' 0: commission on behalf of the respondent in England, was read the burden of it being that she would not go to her husband in consequence of his bad conduct, ill-treatment, and intemperance. The Court granted absolution from instance, with costs. The Chief Justice said an action of this kind c'-uld not be successfully brought un- less plaintiff proved that the desertion was not only wilful, but also malicious and it lay upon the plaintiff, therefore, to prove that his wife had maliciously deserted him. his opinion there could be no malice A •*•»< husband had given cause for desertion.' was a case of a delicate, nervous wife, towards whom the plaintiff on several occasions had shown con- siderable unkinduess, to say the least. According to her evidence he was frequently intoxicated, and while in that condition went so far as to assault her. In that evidence she was corroborated by the groom a.nd maid- servant. Plaintiff positively denied all these statements, but he (the Chief Justice) could not bring himself to think that this lady had oonoocted a. falsehood, especially when he took into consideration the fact that one of the witnesses—Major Carnegie—positively swore that on two occasions he was a witness to acts of drunkenness during the time that plaintiff was with his wife. After giving the matter his best consideration he could only come to the conclusion that there was proof of ill- treatment in 1878 which justified the respon- dent in refusing to live with her husband. He (the Chief Justice) was afraid there was no course open to the court but to grant absolu- tion from instance, with costs. Mr. Justice Upington was of the same opinion. 1

Dr. P. J. O'Donnell brought before the Barry District Council on Friday evening a motion in favour of steps being taken to acquire Cadoxton Common for public uses. The motion TVas warmly approved of, and a oommittee was appointed on the matter. < MOTHER. if BABY COUGHS or Wheezes run no risks, but give it a dotse of Mortimer's Cough and Croup Mixture.

? HangedThough Innocent. THE SEAL OF SECRECY LIFTED AT LAST. Lawyer Tells a Strange Story Connected with Abraham Lincoln's Death. f Fire has just destroyed the last shred of dbcumentary evidence that, it is alleged, would have removed the stain of the charge of conspiracy to assassinate Abraham Lincoln from the name of Mary E. Surratt, of Chi- cago. This woman, who suffered, death on the charge preferred against her, had for her counsel Colonel John W. Clampitt, of High- land Park, of Chicago, in whose possession was the evidence that he thinks would have restored her good name and shown that in the passion of the time an innocent person had been sacrificed. For 30 years Colonel Clampitt had been collecting data and evi- dence, and had it so complete, he beliered, that none could doubt it. It was ready j for publication, and then came the fire which destroyed his residence and all the evidence i accumulated since that day, 30 years ago, when lie strove to save the woman from the gallows. It was not until last week (says an American contemporary) that Colonel Clampitt spoke of this particular loss which he had suffered in the burning of his home. "The world was beginning to believe that Mrs. Surratt was a martyr," he said, "and I had that which would have inoontestaWy proved it, but it is gone in flames. Did you know that only the other day Father Walter, the priest who adminis- tered extreme unction to Mrs. Surratt at the very foot of the soaffold, died in Wash- ingion ? I saw him before his death. In order that you may know the value of the evidence that his declaration put in my hands I must detail the scene at the execu- tion. Mrs. Surratt was a devout Roman Catholic. I am a Protestant, but, in common with other Protestants, 1 know that truth falls from the lips of a person prepared for heaven and who is about to die- This woman on the scaffold turned to her spiritual adviser and s&id: —' iioly father, can 1 not tell these people before 1 die that 1 am innocent of the cnme for which 1 have been condemned to death?' Father Walter repuied: 'No, my, child; the world and all that is in it has now receded for ever; it would do no good, aw4 it might disturb the. serenity of your last mo- meats.' Father Walter, before his death, re. vealed to me the secret of his refusal to let her speak. When I sought him out in W ashingtou to urge him to give me that which I needed to help clear her name, he told me, first of all. that the woman was absolutely innocent of the charge against her, and then he told me thm astounding story -lie said it had been evident to him that the War Department, while beat on convicting, had doubts of the guilt of Mrs. burratt. 1 rom the eviuence given me Uy Father Waiter, 1 learned that he had been eeut for by the Department the day beiore the exe- cution, and had been told that he would, not be allowed to see Mrs. burratt on the day ot her death unless he would pledge his faith and hruyuir aa a. priest of Goo uia-t niter he had 1 absolved her, &t1d she bad rweived the savtw ment, he wouid prevent her iroin making W protestation of lier innocence. In other worci^ J as tne price of being allowed to minister to 3 dying woman, Father alter was forced by jg| the vVar .Department to consent to allow her |3| to die without one word from her lips to the "W worid as to her innocence. Tlie fact that she did not declare her innocence when in the state |§ of grace following absolution lias been used as an argument in favour of her guilt. The truth is now known. Father Walter s story is gone in tire, but I have it in my memory, and now 14et it go to the world."

CARDIFF PERJURY CASE. CONVICTION OF BAKER AF- FIRMED IN THE HIGH COURT. In the Queen s Bench Division of the liijfh Court of Justice on Saturday the case of the Queen v. Henry Baker came before a court ior the consideration of Crown cases reserved, consisting of the Lord Chief Justice and Justices Hawkins, Cave, Grantham, and Law- ra,uce. It was a oase tried at the Glamor- trauthire Assizes in February last, before Mr Chalmers, county-court judge of Bir- mingham, who was appointed commissioner of assize o1. the South Wales Circuit. The defendant Baker was charged with wilful and corrupt perjury, was found guilty, and sen- tenced tc three months' hard labour, but the execution of the sentence was stayed pending the decision on a point of law reserved for she opinion of this court. It will be remem- bered that Baker in the petty sessions swore till oath that he had never authorised Mr. Belcher, his solicitor, to put in a pl*a of guilty, although Mr. Belcher had made a statement to the contrary. At the conclu- sion of the hearing at the assizes Mr. Arthur Lewis, on behalf of Baker, took the objection that, even if the statements made by Baker were knowingly false, they could not amount to perjury because they were not material to the issues then pending before the magis- trate, Baker having admitted his previous conviction, and had not appealed therefrom, and that a, previous conviction only affected the amount of punishment. The judge, how- ever, held that Baker, having tendered him- self as a witness, was properly examined con- cerning the circumstances of his previous con- viction, and that his answers were material, but he oonsented to state a case on the point raised by Mr. Lewis.—Mr. C. Je Jackson, on behalf of the town-clerk of Cardiff, ap- peared in support of the conviction. Baker was not represented.—Their Lordships con- sulted together for a short time, and, without calling upon Mr. Jackson, decided that the learned judge was right and affirmed the con- viction. Henry' Baker will live till Doomsday—in the law books. Once a highly respected resi- dent of Haverfordwest, then head-postmaster at Llanellv, afterwards a persistent runner of bogus clubs at Cardiff, and lastly a con- victed perjurer, he has now done English law the service of providing a leading case. For the decision in the Queen's Bench on Saturday goes further than any case in the books. Baker committed perjury in the Car- diff Police-court, but, as he had already pleaded guilty to the charge made against him, Mr. Arthur Lewis contended that the perjury was not material to the case. and, therefore, a conviction for perjury would not lie. Commissioner Chalmers, who pre- sided over one of the courts at the last Glamorgan Assizes, thought otherwise, and on Saturday a bench of judges in the Queen's Bench Division affirmed the convic- tion. In future, therefore, the Queen v. Baker will be cited to show that everything a man may say after he is sworn, whether it be material to the oase or not, is material to his credit, and perjury will be perjury in a legal as well as an ordinary sense.
