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. This Interesting Welsh cathedral. It Is said, wns vni' of an ancient British temple dedicated to Andrnn, the (iou(k.,a w .,...., . .. The nathedrul church Is dedicated '" both Andras and Dew I. The present building was erected by Peter de Lela, In the yea? HSO; the episcopal palaco was built by BUhup CJowor In 1310. On the Reformation, pilgrimages to St. David's wore discontinued, and tha trade at the shrine ended; the images wre of course pulled down by the Ito fjrmers, wid .the Palace of St. David's was Jtiljrpfd of Us leaden roof.

Kvaiis was tho musical ad judicator at the I'tlca eisteddfod last Now Years, nud It seems, that hltf adjudication wns nn unusually t-chol-nrly one from a musical and lite-rat y stanpolut, nnd Mr. Kmlyn Kvnns thought so, t'to, but he nlso thought that he had read It betora many years ago. And he strained his memory a little, and scanned old musical paper, and seaniitd again, and at last, his curiosity was sutlslled, tor lo and be hold he discovered the very, jeu, tho Identical cdjudlcntlnn delivered by Mr. Mntks Kvnns at mica last New Years. Net n comma, no, nothing was chang ed from the original. Now, Mr. Kvans weeps and walls over his folly. This very adjudication was delivered in Wales over thlity years ago. 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 lealng he addressed the Innkeeper as follows: Llwyd yw Llwyd. a llwyd yw'r cwrw, A llwyd yw'r Llvwddyn syn el gadw; Ac onl chcld'v Llwyd well ewrw, Ffarwel l'r Tlncer eto'l alw. 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 tyrant and oppressor. Upon the occa sion of his building of Plas Coch, a cer tain poet wrote tho following cnglyn: PalnJti, parlyrau pur loywon-dyrau, A tllfrad fendltl ..n: Os gwyrwyd nld y gwlrlou, A sal tal yn y sut lion? The poet' was Instantly sued In tho Star Chamber by tho lawyer for libel, and was only saved by the conjunction os (It). Following Is the Prydydd Hir's translation of tho above englyn: Yo stately palace i anl princely towc-s. And al the wealth that luxury devouts; If by the poor man's sweat and wrongs you rls". Can you last long and Heaven not hear his crl;s'.' There wit' bo published shortly a biography Ir. Welsh of the pillar of Welsh Congiegatlonallsm, the Into Dr. John Tliomuj, of Lleipool, written by his son. the Itev. Owen The mas, M. a., nnd the Rev. J. Maehrcth Reis, Lon don. It will bo to a great extent a his tory of the leading movements of Welsh Congiegatlonallsm during the last quarter of a century, nnd Its annea -nnci is eagerly expected. Another bi ography recently announced Is that of the late Rev. David Davis, Barmouth (Daffydd Davis Bermo) Welsh Calvln istlc minister, written by his son-in-law, Rev. Wlllian Jones, of Liverpool. Lord Selborne, tho parliamentary sec retary of the colonial olllce, has. It Is announced, accepted an Invitation to attend tho annual meeting of the South Wales division of conservative associa tions, which will bo held at Porth next month.

A curious ordeal was witnessed re cently In n. Cardiff newspaper office. One of tho apprentices managed In some Inconceivable way to get a small tlmse (a sauare of steel In which to lock up type) over the head of one of his conferees.

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 Archdeacon Howell there Is still an other canonry rendered vacant in St. Abuph. Mr. Wt-'stlak'e Morgan, late of Mer thyr, hat been telling a Bangor audi ence that Alfred the Great enjoined study of music anions liberal aits In the Unlveislty of Oxford, of which it was s-tld ho was the founder. In the year 1SSG King Aithur founded a pro fessorship fcr the cultivation of music ns a scl'jnce. The first professor came from gallant little Wales-from St. Da ld's. His name was Friar John, and in addition to his music lectures he read lectures on logic. Mrs. Janet Miles, who Is halo and hearty at 78 years of age, has been for the second time elect Jd (unopposed) a member of the Mlchaelstono Higher (Pontrhydylcn) Parish council, and the talk Is that she Is to be chosen to fill the chair. She told a representative of 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 ensure the success of the art section. A step which Is as novel as it Is com mend'tbla has Just been taken by the ait committee to bring the competi tions In woodwork and can Ing, metal works, terra cotta, and pottery under the same notice of the craftsmen in those tradrs. A special circular giv ing full paitlculars of the competitions has been dratted by Mr. Alfred Swash, the secretary, and is now being spread broadcast among the artlzans tlnough out the country, with a request nd-dressi-d to the employes to post the circular m prominent places In the workshops. Mr. Tom Hughes, J. P., LlaneHy, has been nominated for tho olhco ot depu ty grand master of the Independent Oi der of Odd Fellows-, M. U. The elec tion will take place at tho A. M. C. In the Isle of Man in Whit week, and there Is every prospect that Mr. Hughes the only Welshman on tho board of dliectors of the Unity will be elected, uirougu me comesi is niveiy iu ? . stiff one. II Is stated that -the "Uiu Urigade" by which name nn influen tial section of the delegates is known will strongly support hla candidature If so, his election is assured, for Mr. Hughes Is exceedingly popular among the English delegates. Wales has but once been represented In the grand master's chair, which iu-; very ably occupied In 1SG5-G by th late new Dr. i Thomas Price, of Aberdare, who wa-i i instrumental in bringing the A. fli. c. for the flrrt time to Wales, the meet ings being held In Swinsea In 3t5S. Profesor David, son of the rector of St. FagariJ, is the most prominent phrenologist in Australia. General Lawrle, M. P., has been of fered by the Prince of Wales, grand master of the western division of South Wales, In succession to the late Lord Kensington. The general is a distin guished Mason, has held the position of grand master of Free Masons in Nova Scotia, and his appointment, says the Craftsman, will be hailed with delight i by every lodge in the province. The April number of the Craftsman, by tne ! way, is exceptionally readable and BENCH SHOW ON THE takes tho form of a special spring edi tion, In which nppcnrs several por traits of recently elected W.

The resources of the Welsh Calvinls tlc Methodist bookroom at Carnarvon arc being taxed to tho utmost in tho efforts to cope with the ever-Increas ing task In issuing the literature of the connexion. In adltlon to the stu pendous work Involved In the publica tion of tho new hymnnl, the text books Issued by the Sunday School union for the 1S97-9S lc3ons (which commence next Sunday) have now to be dealt with, while In a few weeks the staff wil have to tackle the publication of the new hymn and tune book. Tho text books now being Issuer Include. a volume- of 1G3 pages on the first Book of Samuel, by the Rev. John E. Da vies, M. A., London: another on the same subject by the Rev. Dr. Davlcs, 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 erpool. The literary activity of tho 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 paring for publication n memoir of the famous Davlcs, of Rhydycymerau; nnd Dr. Cynddylnn Jones' volume on Mo saic Theology Is In the press. The Millenium has begun at Trefecca as well as Penarth. A college profes sor and the organist of tho church pro duced together a drama for the St. Da vid's Day festival at the college, en titled "The Utopian College of Wnles," which describes a happy future of nothing but Cnlvlnlstlc Methodism In the principality and nn amalgamated (or rather) Methodist college, where a sweet girl graduate of twenty Is a professor of Semitic Archaeology. Professor Rhys considers the two fa vorate books of every Pembrokeshire man should be the Bible and the "Ma blnoyou strictly in that order. Mr. Cowcn, who has been appointed conductor of the Cardiff triennial fes tival in succession to the late Sir Jo seph Barnby. will contribute to the festival a new choral work, probably a secular cantata, Mr. Edgar W. J. Jones, M. A., the new representative of the Guild of Graduates on the university court, Is the head master of Llandllo county school. He has already come into prominence on the central school board, mainly on the question of leav ing certificates. Mrs. Jones, who was also a student at Aberystwrth college (and previously at Cardiff) lived for some years at Hughesovsko, Stouth Russia. 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 NILE.

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.
