Curiously enough, St. David's wne
the last of the older sees to have n
dean, for before 1S40 the precentor per
formed the duties of tho denn. Welsh
men expect that the cathedral services
will now, for the first time for over twi
hundred years, be conducted In Welsh.
According to tho usually veracious
London Kelt, the Rev. Abe! J. Parry,
ex-presldct . of the. Welsh Baptist
union, and a friend one day were In
a railway carriage scaling mo heights
of a continental mountain, when the
friend remarked, "Well, well, they will
lay down 11 railway to take us to
heaven soon." The engineer happened
to overhear the remark, whereupon
sudenly turning round, he exclaimed,
"No, no, It would never pay there is
not cnousli traffic."
Three deacons In one of the chapels
In the "Hills" went to Merthyr recent
ly to see the "Sign of tho Cross" tit the
Theater Itoyal. When the pastor
heard of ihls frlghmtful display of
woildllmss ho resolved .to make It as
warm for the unfoitunate deacons on
earth as the old boy will In the hereaf
ter make It for bigots. On Sunday the
reverend uentleninn not only delivered
a eavage sermon ugalnsi all things
pertaining to the stage, but ho actually
refused to administer the holy com
munion to the erring brethren.
Tho Newport national eisteddfod
this year will probably bo made fa
mous by the numerous entries of choirs
from tural districts In Wales. This,
no doubt, is mainly to ho attributed to
the success of the Bullth choir at tho
Llandudno national eisteddfod. Bullth
will, however, have .to look to Its laur
els at Newport for a fine body of
voices in the hitherto unbeaten Llan
purnsant choir, as well as the older
choirs of the colliery districts, will
enter the lists against them to com
pete for the musical blue ribband of
the national eisteddfod of 1897.

During an election In the county of
Caeinmrthen, year? ago, which lasted
generally fur fourteen days, there hap
pened, at TJandllo. soim great neces
sity for sending a message to the town
of Caermarthe:;, which would reach
there beforo the mall coach which was
about to slait. A man by the name of
nibbop, n tinker by trade, and a prom
inent (lgiue at elections, undertook the
task, end managed to reach the said
town twenty minutes before the coach.
It wjji said that Mi. Ow'ynn, of Glan
Bran, wa so' pleased that he kept the
tinker fiom want until his death. Gib
bon was also a bit of a poet, and on
one occasion he touted tlnoUgb St.
Clear's, and called at a tavern kept by
one mm' d Lewsyit Llwyd Fawr. The
beer which was brought to Gibbon mm
not altogether to hl.s taste, and before

Ac onl chcld'v Llwyd well ewrw,

An Irish professor at u Welsh col
lege was an applicant for a mastership
at a Church of Kngland school, "ir.
you geH this place," a colleague told
him, "you will have to become a
churchman." Now, the professor was
a Presbyterian, nnd as we have said,
an Hibernian. Wherefore he answered
Indignantly: "But I wouldn't be such
a hypocrite as to become a genuine
churchman."
Hug:i Hughes, Plas Coch, Anglesea,
attorney to Quee-n Kllzabeth, was a
lawyer of great lepute. but a cruel

The new canon of St. Asaph, tho Rev.
Llewelyn Thomas, vice 'principal of
Jesus college, who succeeds the bishop
elect of St. David's, l.s not a stranger
to the neighborhood of the cathedral
city. A quarter of a century ago he
wns at Ruthin Grammar school, but
returned to Oxford on being elected
to n fellowship of Jesus college. Ho Is
a veiv genial man, full of ready and
pleasing wit. By the promotion of

in addition to his music lectures he
read lectures on logic.

the South Wales Daily News recently
that she hud lived at Pontrhydyfen all
her life, that she was a liberal in poll
tics, and that to show her independ
ence she attended church and chape!
in turn. The old lady Is possessed of
great energy and determination, and
tho utmost deference Is shown to her
opinion on all parish matters.
Energetic efforts are being made by
the Newport Eisteddfod committee to

M. A. Oshkosh; and a book of WS
pages on the Psalms (I. xll.), by the
Rev. R. E. Morris, M. A Wrexham,
and the Rev. John Hughes, M. A., Liv

connexion Is, however, by no means
confined to the bookroom. Many other
works will shortly be published, and
among them a new volume of sermons,
by the Rev. Dr. Rees, of Cefn, whoso
first volume was long ago sold out. The
Rev. James Morris. Penygralg, is pre

Among tho manuscripts which have
Just been discovered by Mr. J. Gweno-
gfryn Evans, M. A., will be found an
account of a Welsh soldier, written In
the relsn of Queen Elizabeth, of the
taking of Calais, a description by an
eye witness of the proceedings of the
star chamber, and a narrative of the
events which led to the oppression of
the Catholic Insurrection in the east
ern countries ngajnst Elizabeth's rule.
These are all in Welsh, and as their
existence have never been suspected,
they will be a valuable adltlon to tho
material which bears upon the his
tory of the Tudor period.
The late Lord Cardigan, of Bala
clava fame, was probabl one of the
most cyclonic tempereft men of his
time. Once, when shooting pheasants
nt Dene with t,he late Sir Henry
Hoare, who told the story, and moving
In toward the corner from which the
birds were to be driven ncross the val
ley, he noticed that the pheasants
were getting up by the hundreds and
Hying back. "There must be a fox,"
said his lordship; but, when he reached
the corner the true cause was disclosed
a very aged and feeble yokel was sit
ting on a s-tile. In full view. In the very
corner of the cover. "My lord" prompt
, v. cieared for action, threw down his
J pUn!lj dlscha:ed his headkeeper, and
. theRi untl, words faned him, gave vent
to I)0or yoi wn0 thought that his last
. ,10ur wa3 at nan(j du exactly what the
situation required. He said. "My lord,
I am your lordship's hereditary mole
catcher." Clutching at any straw to
bring him out of a position clearly rid
iculously, Lord Cardigan said, "Oh! if
ycu are the hereditary mole-catcher
then you are exonerated." He accord
ingly, re-engaged his keeper, recovered
his gun, and said to his guest, "Hen
ly, I am without doubt, a confounded
foci."
It is when reading the records of the
events of the past that wo realize the
change which has taken place In the
eisteddfod within the last forty or
fifty years. Nowadays our big choirs
turn up their noses at prizes of one
hundred guineas, as witness the
wretchedly poor entry at Tonypandy
this week. Our musical fathers and
mothers evidently thought more of the
honor nnd less of the money than we
cm; anynow, we read of a great eistedd
fod which was held at Llanelly In 1S57,
when the chief choral prize was ten
pounds. Tho report gives some col
umns to the speeches of celebrities,
and dismisses the competition with the
remark: "Tho prize was carried off
by the Dowlals choir," Fancy Dan

An unknown Welsh hero of tho
Jameson raid Is referred to by r. E.
Garrett, the editor of tho Capo Times,
In his book, "The Story of nn African
Crisis." The native wit of this young
Welshman enabled the Ultlanders to
cover up the most serious part for
them of the plot against the Boer
government, This was nn attack upon
Pretoria, tho seat of thu latter. Tho
Irene estate, almost within gunshot of
the capital, had been secured for tho
purposes of the project, where a depot
of nuns nnd nmmunltlon wns to bo
formed. A couple of dnys before Dr.
Jim came Into contact with tho Boors
two buck-wagons, drawn by oxen, left
Johannesburg for the Irene estate,
whlcn was safely reached. Here tho
men stored the goods In the buildings
of the estate, nnd then awaited de
velopments. Strange to say, on the
Tuesday following, orders came that
the goods were to be loaded up again
and returned to Johannesburg with
nil possible dispatch. Again the men
worked like Trojans, nnd hnd their
wagons full and their teams Inspanned
In double-quick time. But how to
reach Johatinebburg unseen by tho
Boers! For the country was now all
astir from the news of Jameson and
the splendid rally of the Boers to cut
him off. The Pretoria road was likely
to bo much frequented, nnd by Just
the sort of parties mat tho pretended
traders did not want to meet. The
happy thought struck the young Eng
lishman, or, rather, Welshman, In
chnrge of the expeuitlon to avoid the
president's hlghwny, and striking
across the veldt, by an ordinary farm
er's load lending to the Rand. Thanks
to this Idea and good luck and hard
work, ho managed to reach Johannes
burg without encountering any too In
quisitive party. The men had a nar
row escape from capture, for on Tues
day morning a Boer force reached the
Irene estate to investigate, but found
the birds flown. Information of the
project had reached Kruger, whose
nerves had thereby been so (luttered
that he had refused to Jet the Pretoria
artillery leave the capital to meet
Jameson. Who was the young Welsh
man? SIIAKESPEAUHAN MENU.
