These, with the Old Lord Tredeger. who is one of the three last survivors of the fam ous battle of iialaklavu, and the other gentry, who will, of course, follow their leaders, besides those coming with the American consul from Cardiff and Newport, will unmistakably Insure us a cultured and brilliant assemblage for our last concert here. Fishguard, Oct. 19. We gave a good concert this afternoon and give one here this evening; as well. Took a drive along the coast from Cardigan to this place, and saw some beautiful views of the sea,- and the hills rising from the shore. There were some line old cas tles, too, which we saw on the way, but, really, we have seen so ninny old castles that we are rather surlViied with them; they are not Interesting to us at all any more. But something which we did look at with a great deal of Interest, on the way, was a tall, slender stone in a churchyard in an out- of-the-way place, which, from the hieroglyphics on it, can be proved to he aver S.uotf years old. The coachman mopped long enough for us all to get a good look at It. i Grand Hotel, Swansea, Oct. 20. We had a very successful concert at Fish guard last night again. The Welsh Ladles' choir had been there only two weeks ago and given a concert and the resident manager was not very sanguine of u big meeting, but was agreeably disappointed, for' the house w us crowded. It was a drizzly day and we all felt as If w would rather, like the cross-patch of tradition, "sit by the lire and spin" than perform to ever so nthusiastlc an audience; as they 1 n deed were. Oct. 22. Last 'evening Miss Freeman and 1 sang solos in l)r. Williams' church lier.e In Swansea. Most nf us separate today, o pack up our belongings, some of which are at different places, and Ket ready for our departure for Ixm ilon. which takes place after the New port concert, on Wednesday.

We have all had an exceedingly ideas. ant and enjoyable trip, and all, I am sure, part with each other with real re gret. Kinging he fore Aristocrat. - Newport, Oct. 24. Last night we gave our Neath concert In Malsyrhaf chapel, an Pdiilce over SOO years old, us a. stone tablet In the wall of the audi torium truthfully tells. It was a very successful concert all the way througl The hall was very fine, the' audience nn Immense one and exceedingly ap V'reeUitlVe. Miss Eleanor lteese, the famous balladlst of London, is a native of tills town, and before she beeamo the famous Miss Keese, was the organ 1st for many years In the very ehnpc-l where we sang. Her father, u line leader of choirs, was present at the concert, as were a'so very many of the gentry 'of the neighborhood such -a Villa worship the mayor," lots of M. V.'x. any number of councillors,, and a Sir John 'Jones Jenkins. It was an awful night, wind und rain were Just having a mighty quarrel of it, but the audience was as generous and cheerful a one as we ever sang to, nevertheless. r I'eople have been bo charmltiR to us that I'canuot begin to tell half of the courtesies we have received: I will only ry to- got lit a few things which are so Jresh In my memory that 1 need not try hard to remember. In-. Fairy, who lias arrived in Wales from his Amer lean tour only a fortnight ago, as Boon ti he' heard that we were in his vlcln lty, wrote a most kind letter about us to the people, of South' Wales. I had the honor tonight at the Newport con cert of being presented to him. When I told him that 1 was a pupil of his former pupil, Dr. Mason, of Wilkes Uarre, he was very much pleased, and shook hands again for my teacher's sake as well as for my own. : The concert tonight was a great and grand ' success musically, lliiauclally and socially.

At the end of the first part of th programme the lord mayor of the city, with a big, heavy chain around his neck, and an immense medallion, or mcthing, one of the insignia of his oltlce, ascended the platform and made a lovely little speech of an appreciative hnracter. He . then personally Intro duced fitch of us' to Ijord Tredeger, whom he brought up on the stage, ami who said something very nice and com plimentary to each one of us, as lie shook hunils.

He did not Inspire me with l'eur or tremb ling nt all, although I did consider my self decidedly honored to shake the brave hand that had drawn sword at Ualaktava, of which engagement to morrow, Oct. 2", is the fortieth anni versary, they tell me.

That wus an event which I shall always remem ber and always be proud of, and 1 am sure Mr. Anwyl will be, too, for we both did our level best, as you may rest assured we did not wish to sing his own composition for him and not do It full Justice. After the concert was over the stage was Invaded by hosts of lovely people who came up to meet and con gratulate us all, -the lord mayor and his ludy Introducing many people to us. He is going to be photographed with us tomorrow, with his furred cloak of oftlce and all the rest of the funny things these dignitaries wear over here.

Speaking of the military bazaar, I saw some very pretty soldiers the other day, marching from barracks down to it. .My attention was very strongly at tracted to the regiment of Welsh Hus sars, the crack regiment of the Wales province, and the buttons and gold braid and fur and tassels which they had on their persons was marvelous to inc.

And I laugh, not at the new boy at Dr. Candy's school, but at "Weedon Grossmlth. the lean and comical little man. ' Did he lose any thing of the dignity of manhood by this exhibition '.' If he did, I think you huve discerned the causa causans of the old. invincible and Instinctive prejudice, in one of the comic operas being played in Uroadway there is a fat and unwieldy woman. The sole reason for her pres ence there Is the fact that the Is un wieldy and fat. If you see a loss of dig nity in permitting capital to he made out of these physical disadvantages you have again got at the cause of the preju dice against players. Should it not work the other way with enual force? All acting is not buffoonery, not the por truyal of Bulled and unlovely charac ters. If Mr. Grossmlth loses some of his natural dignity by being Kicked across the stage in 'Robert Mucairc,' does not Mr. Irving gain in dignity of manhood when he merges his person ality in 'Llecket'." The uctor who de picts heroic characters should, one would think, gain in those very rmpects in which the player of humiliating roles loses. But the prejudice, old and Im placable, does not recognize this dis tinction. What It does recognize Is the loss of Identity, and this, us 1 have said, is the bedrock of the whole prejudice.

Mr. Potter is good, ls sincere and modest and gay, He He does not know the New Woman und he does not write about her. Her little moral discrepancies do not concern him. She may go Into u lonely corner half a dozen times a day to pull up her little enfranchised soul by the roots to see how it ls growing. Paul Potter no more thinks of spying cm her than he would have thought of spying ort the Duchess of Salisbury upon a memor able occasion. v We who are weary, very weary, of the "New Woman" of the Hop of her loose shoes and the yammer of her silly little tongue love Paul M.

She Insisted thut, i for satisfactory reasons, the bloooiners ' Should be lined with chumols leather, and that In place of buttons and hooks l there- should be laces on each side to hold the bloomeiN to her body. She wanted ions' strips of broad black braid on the- sides and four pockets, including one on each hip. Finally, she was very particular In explaining that there shutdd be an extra heavy lining- of chamois leather in thut part of the bloomers where the exigencies of wheel ing demanded extra strength. Tailor Clark thought thut the con tract was an easy one, and he told Miss Bojtert that the bloomers could be made for $11. . "Xnw the next step is to get a correct measurement." he said. .u uoyei i suiu noiuin. mne uia not know what to say, because she had never t'uron measured for bloomer by a man. When the tailor produced u tape measure sh tare a quick gasp, but grew composed when the tailor said: Vou can just step behind that cur tain and measure yourself." fche followed a few simple instruc tions given by the tullor and went home, tin August 'i the bloomers arriv ed at the Sonora Mats. On the next day the bloomers were returned to the tailor with this note: liear Mr. Clark: Kindly note that there Is an evident discrepancy between my measurements .and the indescribable things that youavc sent me. i also call your attention to the fact that you have not sufficiently strensthtened the parts where the chief wear and tear will take place. Sincerely, Sylvia Uogert. Mr. Clark changed the measurements of the (torments nnd added more pad ding. Hack came the bloomers from the Sonora Mats with this note pinned on the hip poeket: , Hear Mr. Clark: I object to looking like a contemporary of llendrlx Hudson. .Make me look like a modern American' woman, please. Sincerely, Sylvia Ilozert. Mr. 'Clark made one more effort to make Miss Bogert "look like an Ameri can woman," but the bloomers wire re turned with another note: liear Mr. Clark: 1 am ufriad that you will think thut 1 urn haru to please, hut the bloomers are somewhat tight where they should be loose, and absurdly louse where no fulness is needed. I am tired of complulning, and unless you can make them to my satisfaction 1 shall not take them, t'leutie look up my measurements once more. Sincerely, Sylvia lloserl. Mr. Clark Is a patient man, and, although quite as tired of hearing Miss Bogert's comolutnts as she was of complaining, he made more changes and asked Miss Bogert to men sure the bloomers for the purpose of unifying her measurements. , She re plied by returning the bloomers uguln, and writing a lot of criticisms about pleats, g'ires, darts, and so forth. Then Tullor Clajk got angry. He hud lost several pounds and aged so rapidly that his friends became alurmed. He threw the bloomers in a corner of his sture and took down the sign from the window. There would be 110 more specialties In the line of bloomers at his place. He then notified Miss Bogert that she would have to pay for the bloomers whether she liked them or not. Miss Bogert wrote back thut Mr. Clark could give them to some one else; she would not have them. Mr. Clark consulted his lawyer, John A. Anderson, and begau a suit aguitist Miss Bogert to re cover til. the price of the bloomers. The papers were served yesterday. Miss- Bogert told !, reporter last eve ning that the bloomers were all w rong, "in the first place," she said, "they did not tit. They were too tight where--well, they did not tit at all. 1 suppose Mr. (Turk thought I would take off my skirls when 1 made the measurements behind the curtain; but 1 didn't do It. Then, again, they were not lined as I ordered. Vou see. that chamois leather lining was my own idea. 1 wanted to wear tlie bloomers in the fall und Well, 1 did not want any more clothes Inside of them, thut's all. Then the lining was so arrunged that you see this ls a deli cate subject- but my letter to Mr. Clark explains that. But l am going to stick to Skirts for bicycling, and I am done with dress reform." .' . : She Was a Hyglcnikt. From the Detroit Tribune. The robber knight pleaded. "May I not hope," he asked, "to exact a tribute from those sweet Hps'.'" Hist fair .captive shivered. "If. you can find It In your heart to Uk6 advarituge of, my helplessness " ' In her voice was the dull, leaden ring of despair . " "to force attentions upon me that are so very unsanitary." 1'rom an of which It became at once apparent that the lady had followed the teleutlflc discussions of the day.
