Special Correspondence of Tho Tribune.
I'ont-y-Frldd, South Wules. Oct. 11.
1 have ju.Mt come home from Treforest.
where 1 have been to tnke tea with u
dear friend .of mine and her mother.
I may as well mention that I am at last
converted to tea, and drink ft like the
rest of the world over here. We had a
delightful holiday. Afternoon tea Is a
greut institution, I think. Ve sat
around a little square table four of us
and had as cozy a time as four young
women could have, feastlnt? on their
bread and cheese, jam, cold meals, de
licious pastries, with "sweetmeats" at
the end for dessert. I do so like this
five-o'clock tea custom over here. It Is
uothtiur like our fashionable function
of 'live-o'clock teu" which, I suppose,
was brought over, with many varia
tions, from here, and means to us u
Katherlngof from ten to a mob, perhaps,
with elaborate table decorations, French
cookery, swell dresses nnd tea-gowns,
blight lights und much chatter. This,
Instead of a cosy room, with the light of
day just beginning to fade from the
windows and a big lire crackling on
the lisnrth, near which Is a snowy little
tablo drawn up. The bread Is sweet,
the jam just too good for anything, the
tea-things us pretty as a picture, and
the smell of the steaming pot full of
tea draws you irresistibly over to It.
"You sit down softly opposite your host
oss; and let ussupposetwo other friends
take the remaining places. The light
has grown u little dimmer, and It Is
almost twilight, and you talk to each
other softly, as though there were a
fcpell upon you. Your hostess pours out
cup after cup, and you drink without
knowing it, almost, you are having
such a good, quiet homely time, l'ut
yourself in my place, und suppnno your
feet do not quite reach to the floor, but
a big curly dog wanders under the tea
table and lies down there, and you use
Ms warm and furry dogshlp for a foot
stool. "What more, now, could you ask
than this, for solid comfort? So there
you sit, at your ease, and take little
bites of things and little slus rf tea,
while conversation HourisluM.
It Is not a time, this quiet hour, for
discussion of the fashions, nor tlieater
tulks, nor yet opera or current gossip.
You do not ever l'eel like arguing
among yourselves over your pet voice
teachers' differing, and in each case,
only correct methods. Your thoughts
go home across the sea to America, und
you begin to think of your mother and
little brothers there, and you tell the
other girls about a letter you just re
ceived from one of these little fellows,
the spelling of which left much to be
desired, but which nevertheless made
your heart very glad. You talk ubout
your little piano at home, and the
youngster who used to take pleasure
in performing dreadful thunder-claps
thereon, in order to ascertain if his sis
ter had "nerves", and his intense and
wicked delight upon their discovery;'
and you wonder if the winter In London,
ahead of you, won't seem Interminable,
without the home-folks. They tell you
that you won't mind it when you get
settled, and that you must be sure to
get a good quiet, comfortable lodging;
and Just as you reply you shall con
sider yourself happy If you can be
where they spread a live-o'clock tea
table, the maid breaks in upon the
charmed circle with lights, the spell is
broken, and tea is ended.
Handsome Welsh Ponies.
If I should ever got lich.T should
have a little AVelsh pony. They are
little beauties. Larger than a Shet
land, and so very pretty they are, that
one falls in love with them, almost.
They are bo cute that they make me
lnugh with pleasure to look at them.
Their bodies are somewhat round and
sturdy, and they have pretty, intelli
gent looking little heads and very
slender, graceful little legs, with
small, dainty feet, which carry them
over the ground at quite a rapid rate,
considering they are only ponies. 1
have heard them called the hardiest
little animals In the world, and 1 do
not doubt it In tho least, since I have
often seen one nf them pulling u big cart
with two good-sized men In it and
often some produce as well running up
hill and down hill, ut u smart litll
pace. They are allowed to work very
hard, to pull very much, und to run
rntlrely too. much, especially up und
down hill.whero they energetically keep
up the same gait as on level ground,
"We see quite a number of these plucky
httle 'beasts, 'which would lie very
handsome but for their being sadly
kneesprung from their too .frequent
brisk canters down the steep hills. Thev
are very gentle little animals, too, and
whenever 1 sen one I can hardly help
unvylntr Its possessor
' I cannot think of anything to tell
about the concerts any more, really
as they are nil alike, to us. ut least, and
their sameness renders them very un-
lnterestingto the performers, especially.
"pur receptions, as 1 said before, have
never failed In being cordial, both inus
Ically nnd socially speaking. Day
after tomorrow- we sing at Aherlillery,
tho next day ut Newcastle Enilyn, the
next at Cardigan, and so on through
the week. Somp amusing incidents be-
fall us sometimes In our travels, and
wo often hear very odd, and, of course,
totally unfounded remarks concerning
ourselves. Lust week for instance,
when we arrived at a certain town to
sing, I was Informed that the manager
of the town hall there had had a rather
confused. Idea of my name, having ad
vertised ine to his friends as Sadie
(Iwent Kistler.
He thought I was tho famous Gwllm
Owent's daughter, Mrs. Kistler. Mr.
Anwyl, on account of his rather short
stature and very engaging appearance
on the stage, Is often taken by people to
tie very young, almost a boy, in fact, and
he and I have really twice been suppos
ed to oe the interesting son and
daughter" of our esteemed basso, Mr
Burns! Tilings like these amuse us by
the was, and we get a great deal of
pleasure os well as prollt in our wail'
derings. We ure always "giving our
selves away" as Americans wherever
we go by our chatter, badinage and
general good time.
Practical Jokes.
Mr. Anwyl Is quite a wag, and can set
a whole compartment full of staid,
sober Englishmen laughing without
half trying. Only yesterday a lady with
whom I was talking about America
broke in with, "Well, you Americana do
know how to enjoy yourselves!" And
indeed I think we do. We have our
faults of flurry and worry, but wo nlso
are the most delightfully nnd sensibly
luxurious people In the world. I believe
1 have meet some people over here who
are simply all ears when you begin to
say anything about America. They
. have, perhaps, a few highly colored and
exaggerated ideas of things as they are
over there, and expect you to corrobo
rate these by spinning yarns still more
wonderful uhout divorce cases, for In
stance, and the lavish and Indiscrim
inate granting of thes American lux
uries. The wonderfulcold, and the in
tense heat, the cycloiles and tornadoes
which we are supposed to entertain
dully, and hosts of
tiazylilens. which '
some people have about us, are funny
beyond expression. America is Utopia
and they expect nothing but the won
derful from there. If you tell them the
truth about anything on which they
ask information they are sometimes
quite disappointed, because forsooth,
it was not stranger than fiction. Any
one so inclined could indulge pretty
freely in drawing the long bow. and his
romances would all be credited by a
large class.
That makes me think of the old tlsh-
woman we met washing seaweed down
at the Mumbles when we Were ut Swun
sea Hay the other day. We were watch
ing her at her work. a m I talking, and sne
asked us "from what narts we were;"
and when one of the gentlemen told her
we sailed from America she calmly saia
n did ye come all that way in the
cars?" Some of us were so Impolite as
to fairly scream with laughter, but we
explained and she forgave us. Of course
there uro all kinds of people nere. as
there are everywhere, nnd some of them
are less informed about our bright
country than others, but whenever any
one conies to me for Information or
comparisons between ours and other
countries you may bo very sure that I
just make the eagle scream.
The Singers of Wules.
We meet a great many singers over
here, some of them very line. That Is
as It should be, too, for there is certain
ly no reason why a good voice over here
need want for training witn ixinuon
and the best teachers in the world with
in half a dav's ioiirnev. At one of our
concerts. Kerniliile. I think, we had the
Pleasure of meeting Miss Mury Thom
as, the daughter of Mr. Tom Stevens
solo basso, of the Khnndda society. She
is a charming young lady, and called on
us behind the scenes before the concert
began. She is now In London, where
she Is a pupil of the celebrated Shakes
peare. Her voice Is contralto anil is
said to be very fine Indeed. 1 met
another pupil of Shakespeare's after
our Pont-.v-l'ridd concert a tew weens
ago, too. 'nils one was a soprano uuu
informed me that she had gone to the '
oncert that evening to hear the Amer-
lean voices, which she admired very
much Indeed, That same evening, too,
I had oulte a chat with Madame II-
llams-l'enii.of Pont-y-Pi ldd,whom I had
met before at St. Catherines, nrter
service one Sunday. She, also, Is a
soprano of whom I hear great things,
and who Is engaged . for concerts all
over Wales. Her pet London teacher
was Fiorl, of whom she talked very en
thusiastically to me. Madame Penn Is
always engaged by the venerable Car
adog to sing the solo soprano parts in
the works which his Choral society pro
duces here every winter, and, by the
way. Miss Mary Thomas, of Porth, nnd
of whom 1 lust spoke above, Is the con-
trill to whom Caradog usually semis lor
to take part In his production.
1 hear very line tilings oi I'nruuog

they have given three very line per
formances, one of Hundel's "Israel in
Kgypt," one of "Athalie. by .Xleuueis-
sohn, and one of "Sobgesang, also j

elii.riiM. mmiv of whom have sung under
his direction for years, and with the
uid of a full orchestra, many of the au
dience coming from places miles axvay
sometlmts to enjoy these renditions.
Caradog has never entered competition,
I believe, since he xvon the big prize
with his choir long ago in 1ST- at the
Crystal Palace, London.
An Anecdote of Curadog.
Kiieiikinir of that reminds me of a cu
rious little anecdote 1 heard uhout him
when he was competing for this prize. It
seems that the composition on xvhich
the competition xvas held xvas published
in two editions, one in three-quarter
time and one in six-eighths time. -Now
Caradog's choir had been practising
from the three-quarter time edi
tion, xvhlle the orchestra, with which
the choirs xvere made to sing were play
ing from the music of the edition xvhich
used six-eighths time. Well, xvhen this
fact was made known to Caradog, at i

true this is, but I suppose It is all true,

is very proud of this countryman of his.
Harvest Home 1'cstlxal.
Oct. 12. I have just come home from
Treforest, where 1 went this afternoon
to attend a Harvest Home Kestival,
xvhich the English churches celebrate
at this time, all over the kingdom. The
Treforest festlvnl last evening was held
In the church Glyn Tan", which is but a
stone's throw from the beautiful home
where the famous arch-Druid, Morten
lives, lloth are located In a very wild
and picturesque spot, upon the top of a
hill, from which a line view of the sur
rounding country can be obtained when
once you have climbed up to It. I had
a very good time at the festival. The
church xvas elaborately decorated with
immense pyramids of produce such as
cabbages, carrots, turnips, pumpkins,
apples, ete., and over these towering
monuments to the plentiful harvest
xvere festooned long Vines of Ivy, pretty
grasses and bouquets and wreathes of
wheat and flowers of all kliids. Palms
stood about In the corners, celery stalks
nestled ut the feet of great stalks of
ripe wheat, an immense lir tree occu
pied the middle of the tloor in one of the
aisles', while every gas Jet xvas festoon
ed with ripe wheat and roses xvhich are
still blooming over here. The whole
church smelt green and sweet with a
sort of big conglomerate smell of all the
little different, fragrances of the many
kinds of fresh fruit, vegetables und
flowers. . . .
Around the altar the decorations were
most elaborate. The pulpit, lecture
desk, and, in fact, everything decorat
ablo xvere festooned and garlanded
beautifully, und around the steps leud
Ing up to the altar xvere strewn in great
profusion the ripest and most beautiful
fruits, the handsomest vegetables, and
ex'on great, big, splendid loaves of home
made bread, with here and there a tine
cheese shoxvlng its yellow disk against
a background of green parsley and cel
ery tops. It was very artistically done,
the whole thing, and the church looked
as If the horn of plenty had Indeed been
poured out over the parish.
I happened to remark to my friend
that I supposed all the decorations pre
sent were really not the products of
Welsh ground, (is I had caught a
glimpse of some white grapes and a few
tomatoes at the top of a pyramid; but
she hastened to Impress upon me that
not a thing was allowed in the Harvest
Home Festival decorations that was not
a product of the ground there in the
parish of Glyn Taff. Even the grapes
and tomatoes were the hot house pro
duction of one of their neighbors, while
an orange or two, a fexv lemons, some
palms and line grasses came also from
the hot houses of one of the parishion
ers. I can not pass on yet without
speaking of the lnvvlyi ferns xvhich
grow here all over and which were used
with such beautiful effect in the decora
tion of the church. They are extremely
plentiful and grow in country and town
just the Bame, und with the ivies und
mosses, I presume, flourish here so xvell
on account of the dampness of the cll
matc. 1 must also mention the anthem
services which concluded the Festival,
and the beautiful chanting in which the
whole assembly joined. It was benutl
ful. The rector talked a Bhort white to
the people, and then we went home
after a little social time. I cannot say
what pleasant memories I shall always
have of this Welsh Harvest Home.
Concert-Giving Hoonis. (
Thlg country seems never to tire of
concerts and concert givers. There are
a large number of concert companies
besides our owrr-who. are toiirlinr Wales
Just now. I cannot recall all -their dif
ferent names and mmli"i,, though I
am very much intvrested n them, and
whenever we Iihvo a night's rest always
try to go and hour theoin'crl worlt of
some one else. As an illustration of
this continual concertizlng to which
the people here are listening, let me
mention the fact that our concert in
I'oiit-y-Priddhere on the tirst of October
was the opening oneoua list of fourteen
or tirteen, the remainder of which were
to follow In quick succession during the
next two or three weeks. The prlnclpul
one of these miscellaneous companies
seems to me to be that managed by Mr.
Mendlessohu Parry, son of the famous
Dr. Joseph Parry, of Cardiff. Mr.' Parrs
has with him only a trio of vocal artists,
a soprano, tenor and contralto; and re
lies for his drawing card entirely upon
his piano sololst.Mr. Oliver King, who
Is now being heard for the first time la
Wales, and Is undoubtedly the central
figure In Mr. Mendelssohn Parry's com
pany. He is a man of remarkable talent
and certainly has already had a won
derful record. Ho began as a pupil of
Sir Joseph iiarnby in london, subse
quently acting as this great musician's
deputy In connection with his organist
duties. He afterward went to Leipzig,
where he worked for three years under
such masters as Herman, Oscar, Paul,
Rlehter and Reinecke. Mr. King's tirst
important engagement was that of solo
pianist to a concert party headed by
Mme. Peschka-Leutner, with whom lie
travelled through Germany twice, each
tour extending over several months. In
1ST" he returned to London and was ap
pointed court pianist to Her Highness,
the Princess Louise, Marchioness of
Lome, and In this capacity he went to
Canada, on the appointment of Lord
Lome as Governor General of the Do
minion. Ho remained there until ISM,
visiting tho United States in ISSii, pro
ducing, at Hostoii In that year an or
chestral symphony called "Night,"
which has since been produced at the
ChesterTrlennial Musical Feslival:nnd
in iss:!, after having gained the Phil
harmonic Society's prize for the best
overture, he returned to Kngland. Soon
after this he accompanied Madame
Adellna Pnttl, Albanl. Antoinette Stir
ling, and olherartists of the same splen
did calibre on a concert tour in the Pro
vinces. It was in 15. 1 believe, that he
won the lii'st prize offered in London
for the best concerto for piano ami or
chestra, which composition was pro
duced at St. James' Hall. In 1SSH he
travelled through H'oiiand as a piano
virtuoso and composer witli great suc
cess. The Royal Academy of Music,
London, appointed him as one of tin lr
principal piano-forte professors, where
he still teaches. He is n composer of a
great many different works for orches
tra, organ, piano, violin, choirs, and
oxen voice solos of considerable merit,
1 am told, many of these works having
been performed ut the very swellest
concerts in London, as the Novello Ora-
torio concerts, .Monday Pops, t'ryslul
Palace Saturday concerts and the Lon-
he Is travelling ut present. How loxely
it must be to be so gifted! In upKar
ance Mr. King Is rather slight, hi ex
pression Is somewhat frowning, af.d he
xvears a pompadour. Howex'er, lit spite
of all his honors I do not think he Is as
much a draxving card for his vompany
as our violinist is for ours, as their au
diences have been very much smaller
than ours In every place where the com
panies have been.
i:ploring Cardiff.
Oct. l:!. This afternoon I spent In
Cardiff, and had a glorious time, I can
! ussure you. Vx e saw a great deal of the
outside of the city; the Interior we
1 have not had time to visit as yet. Tak-
I ing a brake or drag I'm sure I don't
knoxv xvhich we drox'P around and saw
! the estates of the Martinis of llute,
j xvhich ure certainly very handsome. I
I was told that for a small sum xve could
go through his palace, us he xvas not at
chnriiv We had the
,op.
ions day-Just like a day in Indian Hum-
mel. H m(.low ,, nid-and we next
took in Cardiff Castle, in a velw of
which 1 invested to place by my picture
.. vj....,nuu I'nxMe. "here we saw the
docks xvhich have brought so much
t rattle to Cardiff since the Prince of
Wales opened them some years ugo,
und after that had lunch in a dainty
little ladles' restaurant. Then, having
some time still to spare, xve xvent to
Howell's xvhich is the same to Cardiff
as Jonas Long's or the llostnn Store Is
to Wilkes-Havre and enjoyed ourselves
as only women can, looking at the
pretty things (and so cheap!) and wish
ing we xvere rich enough to buy things
xve would never need. However, 1 did
Indulge in a pair of nexv gloves, nice,
good, kid ones too, for one and six
(thirty-eight cents). Gloves are one of
the things xvhich are so very much
cheaper over here than at home. Of
course, being In a dry gOods store they
call them "draper's shops" oxvr here
xve narrowly missed losing our train,
but here 1 am at any rate, back to
Pont-y-Pridd, almost breathless yet
from the many different things xvhich
happened today; but J had such a good
time!
To morrow I expect to take the early
train from Pont-y-Prldd xvith a friend
of mine and go up to Llanduff, where
there is a llnecathedral to see. Of course
1 expect to enjoy the visit, as the cathe
drul is said to bo one of the finest and
oldest In Wales, and the choral services
excellent. The Bishop himself is to
preach, and we are going to be shown
over his palace, after which xve shall
drive with some dear friends of ours
who have invited us up, und then shall
eo home again late in the afternoon.
I am aware that a weather bulletin
from Wales Is not likely to be consider
ed very interesting to people la distant
Pennsylvania, but 1 really cannot for
bear speaking of the lovely weather xve
are having over here again. To be sure
It did rain for a few days this week,
but now the days are almost Idyllic In
lox'ellness. Some of the foliage Is turn
ing, the blue and red heather Is in
bloom all over in the Holds, and the
gorse xvith Its yellow flowers adds tc
the splendor of the roads and meadows.
xvhlle this mellow autumn air well, the
best I can do Is to say that It is us good
for a body as beef tea.
I have been to so many interesting
places this week, and had such good
times, that I cannot tell uhout them
all this time, and by the xvay,' I am
proud to gay I hux'e added some more
Welsh words to my growing vocabu
lary, so that I am beginning to feel con
lldent ere long 1 shall be able to put
together and send home for your won
der and mystlllcation no less a thing
than a full Hedged Welsh sentence.

lJurlng its special and tirst regular
session the present conuress nnnronrlai'Ml
Ki(i,inlu.ii.i more than xvas appropriated by
the "Million Dollar Congress" during lis
tirst session.
Last year Cuba bought l.iWI.M barrels
of American Hour. Now it Is buying its
I flour or Spain. This is an illustration of
what Democratic orators call "breaking
down the barriers."
! There-is little doubt that there Is in New-
York today Jl.'O.ooo.uoo of money whic h is
not being used in trade, but which would
be In use hud not the Democratic purty
knocked trade in the head.
The aggregate specilic and annual ap
propriations thus fur made by the present
congress amount to S54H-.-.w.ii!i, as com-
pared with HtUUiiS.ulii made by the Fifty
first, or, so-called "Million Hollar Con
gress." The permanent appropriations of tin'
present congress during Its first session
aggregated )liil,K!8,nuii, or .Ytl.cmu In ex
cess of the permanent appropriations by
the Fifty-llrst, or so-called "Million Dol
lar Congress."
The decrease In pension expenditures
about xvhich the Democrats are doing so
much boasting simply means ttvit dur
ing the last year nearly 3Scici soldier
were deprived of their pensions to make
a show of economy,
