Justice Ridley's recent action In (In
clining to nllow a Welsh witness to
Klve his evidence In Welsh nt the
ltauimarls Assizes has stirred up uni
versal Indication. Welsh papers to
hand, The Herald Cymracs, comnient
Ing upon the "Impudence" and the "In
justice" displayed by the judge, de
clares, "Nor arc wo ourselves without
fault. Our fault ns Welshmen Is that
we tolerate such actions. Were a Gor
man Justice entity of such actions In
Hungary of Bohemia, It Is doubtful
whether his life would be safe In Jour
neying homo from the court. In Ht
aumarls the witness did not Insist up
on his right, but cowed llko a whipped
dog. The Welsh "barrister, too, In
stead of standing up fiercely and per
tinaciously for the rights of his coun
trymen, contented himself with a mild
and velvety protest, of which the John
Hull that sat on tho bench took the
slightest notice."
SHOULD DEMAND JUSTICE.
Tho Herald continues: Whlit will
our miners do" Are they too much In
fear of the Judges, or too anxious for
promotion to the bench, to create a
commotion In the House of Commons,
even If It became necessary to sus
pend them once or twice?
The truth Is, we want something more
than a mere verbal protest, the effect
of which nt best would be short-lived.
The time has come when we should
demand perfect Justice In the i-ourts
tho same fair piny as Is conceded to
the Hindoos In India, the French In
Canada, and the Dutch In South Af
ilca." The Gcnedl Cymrclg declares
that the Incident "has aroused in the
breast of every Cymto the feeling that
tho nation his been wounded and the
conviction that theio must bo strong
protest against the great Injustice that
the country has been quietly tolerating
all through tho years. Justice can
never be satisfactorily administered In
the courts of Wales until judges arc
appointed who understand tho lan
guage of Wales." Continuing, the
Gcnedl argues that it was no dlsgiace
to the witness that ho knew no Eng
lish, The disgrace was his lordship's
in that he knew not tho language of
the witness, for the court sat in the
witness's own country, and not in the
Judge's country. "The simple truth
is," it goes on, "that no one has a right
to sit In Judgment upon any people un
less ho understands their language, and
no judge should be tolerated In Wales
who cannot understand the peoplo' of
Wales when they tender evidence In
their own tongue."
SHOULD REFUSE TO TESTIFY.
"The Eoaumaris Incident," slates the
ICymro, "was a fair, though somewhat
old-fashioned, pample of the customary
lirroganco of the ofllelal Saxon," and
Dur contemporary's only regret Is that
the witness did not persist In his re
fusal to give evidence in a language in
which he was not well conversant, and
bo dare his lordship to commit him for
contempt of court. "The laws of Eng
land," continues the Cymro, "extends
over many nations; but the Welsh', so
,far os wo know, aro the only people
who are refused the right to tender
their evidence in their own language.
The chief reason for this Is the ser
vility ot Welshmen themselves. They
must demonstrate to Justice Ridlev.
and every other official, that he is the
servant, not thev. I'osslbly Sir Ed
"ward Ridley is a brilliant lawyer, but
it is doubtful whether he has been en
dowed with much common sense, or to
the good nature of a gentleman."
LAW MUST RE CHANGED.
Tho Gwalla (Conservative) regards
the incident ns "unfortunate," and de
clares that no one with any regard for
Justice can condemn "the many hard
and strong words that will bo used to
desrlbe it." Tho Gwalla strongly con
demns his Lordship, and points out
that his action was all the more uncall
ed for seeing that there were pres
ent in the court very many people who
could have acted ns Interpreters. "If
the Jaw ns it stands," continues the
Gwalla, "supports Sir Ed waul Ridley,
and compels the Welshman to give
his evidence in a language of which
he knows nothing, then by all means
It must bo changed so as to allow a
witness to choose hli own language,
and not allow the question to be de
cided by any individual Judge." Mr.
Justice Ridley is a brother of the Tory
home secretary, and the Gwalla there
fore fears "that tho Incident will be
seized Upon and utilized for party pur
poses." "The 'foolish and Ill-advised' action
of the Judge," says the Tarlan, "has
aroused the country from end to end;
all parties and peoplo of all countries
unite in condemning it We
scarcely believe that he intended to In
sult the nation, but had he considered
but a moment he must have seen that
that was the effect of his conduct, and
the nation has
FELT THE INSULT TO THE QUICK.
Surely no Welshman should be under
any disadvantage in Wales because of
his language. . . The Incident can
not be passed over unnoticed. It must
be dealt with publicly, and the sooner
the better. We are sure our members of
parliament will take up the matter. .
. . And It is high time for us to agitate
for having in Wales judges conver
sant with Welsh. There is no reason
that a nation should be insulted by
judges who are strangers, and who
1' not what they say. We contend
that the action of Justice Ridley is
ample reason why we shuuld demand
the appointment ot special Judges for
Wales."
Tho Scren (B) also refers to tho
matter in equally Ylgoious terms.
It goes to show that tho sons of
stuidy old Gwalla are awakening to a
sense of their carelessness, if that be
. the word. More such incidents aa tho

Here Is another:
At a prlvato and special meeting of
tho Carnarvon School Ronrd, held on
Friday evening, Mr. W. O. Thomas pre
siding, rin appointment was made
which has greatly aroused tho Indigna
tion of tho Inhabitants of tho town.
The Hoard had advertised for an at
tendance officer, and specified that
Welsh was desirable. However, Sergeant-Major
Hall, of tho Foutth Bat
talion Royal Welsh Fusiliers, a monog
lot Englishman, was appointed out of
tho seventeen npplloants, most of
whom were Welsh-speaking. When the
news spread on Saturday morning the
ratepayers wero Indignant, mora es
pecially ns tho Carnarvon school board
had passed a strong resolution ngalnst
the appointment of Mr. LogaVd as
chler Inspector for Wales, and that
n protest had been lodged by the
Carnarvon Town council against tho
appointment of n monoglot English
man to be governor of Carnarvon Gaol.
The ratepayers will probably hold an
Indignation meeting at an early date.
ns It is considered that this nctlon of
the Curnarvon School board tends to
bring Welshmen and their patriotic
protests Into contempt.
LITERARY AND MUSICAL.
Tho second part of "Y Tadiu Annlby
nol," which has Just been published,
Is devoted to a character sketch oC the
late Rev. David Rees, of Llanelly,
written by the Into Principal Herber
Evans. Tho number may be regarded as
a memorial to "both the subject of the
sketch and tho author of It for It was
one of the Inst things written by Pro
fessor Evans before he died.
In tho course of his report on AVelsh
elementary schools Mr. Legard, II. M.
chief Inspector, makes the following
references to singing: In such a muslo
ul country as Wales It would bo natural
to expect highly satisfactory reports
of this singing, and this I nm glad to
find Is the case. Some complaints, how
ever, are made as to the training of
the voice and as to tho choice of tho
song.
Flnlanders have their Eisteddfod, but
they call it "Slordavolo." Mrs. Alec
Tweodle, In her new book "Through
Finland in Carts," gives a graphic de
scription of the Institution "which,"
she says, "as In Wales Is held annually
In a different town for the purpose of
elevating tho tastes of the people, and
of fosteilng the cultivation of music."
Here is a hint for tho promoters of the
Cardirf National Eisteddfod: "Why not
arrange an International choral con
test, 'Wales vs. Finland?'"
The Cymru will be continued under
tho direction of O. M. Edwards. In the
last number occurs this proof. "It
Is evident," writes tho editor, "that
there is a need of Cymru, or
something llko It. There will be more
vigor in future numbers, new arms will
help tho old, nnd Its contents will be
enriched, for the life of Wales becomes
richer day by day. Hope, faith, watch
fulness, nnxlety nil these will bo In It
because they are nil today In the heart
of overv Welshman who thinks of tho
future of his nation."
Sir John Stalner, In his report on the
examination in music of students at tho
University College, Cardiff, says: "The
results here cannot bo described as
first-rate, but they show that music Is
receiving a fair share of the limited
time of a day college student. Tho stu
dents did not exhibit the fluency in
sight singing one looks for In musical
Wales. Most of the songs presented
were good, and some of them were very
acceptably sung. All the students unit
ed to perform tho ehoruses in the first
pnrt of "Elijah." Although such music
must interest and influence students
it does not so readily afford tho culture
to be gained by the refined performance
of lighter unaccompanied music. Never
theless, the work entnlled in getting
up theso difficult choruses must bo
recognized' nnd commended."

TIIK INNOCENT CONVICTED.
Shot While Defending His Master and
Hanged us n Murderer.
From tho Chicago Post.
"Appearances are deceiving," said an
old lawyer the other day. "The strong
est case of circumstantial evidence I
ever knew was against an innocent
man. My father was a lawyer, and In
the criminal practice. One of his ell
ents was hanged for a murder which
he never committed.
"Just at the edge of our town lived
a rich old man in a grand old house.
He had no family, and was alone with
his servants. One night there was a
fearful disturbance in his house, and
neighbors hurried in. Several pistol
shots had'been fired. Tho rich old man
was dead, with a bullet in his brain,
and the butler lay, with his hands full
of Jewelry and watches, right in the
doorway of the old man's room, with a
bullet some.whero in his head, but he
was not dead.
"His revolver lay by his side, and, so
far as could be seen, the whole story
was told right there. The butler, who
had been in tho house only about six
months, had attempted to rob his mas
ter, had been caught In the act and
shot, but had killed the old man in the
fight. That was the only translation
of it, and there was no other for several
days, because tho butler had a very
serious wound and was delirious for a
week. However, It was not fatal, and
as soon as ho was himself, he made a
statement to the effect that ho had
been awakened in the night by foot
steps, and had taken his pistol, which
had only two loads In it out of five, and
gone down into tho hall below to seo
what the noise was.
"He noticed that his master's door
was partly open, at the far end of the
hall, and hurried toward It, As ho np
proached it he heard his master speak
to some one, asking who was there,
and with that there was a pistol shot
and he jumped Into tho room, grabbing
a burglar as he did so, and at the same
time getting a shot in the head from
his master's pistol. Beyond that he re
membered nothing more. His story
was generally believed, for thero was
no evidence of any person In the house
with evil designs, and all the plunder
that ho had not caught in his hands
was lying on the floor about him, so
that there was no apparent reason why
burglar should be there. All the doors
were found locked by those who camo
In response to th,e alarm, nnd thero
wero absolutely no signs of any burg
larizing from tho outside.
"Another strong point was that the
bullet which was found In tho butler's
head exactly fitted the pistol of his
master, showing conclusively that It
was tho master and not tho burglar
who shot him. This was the condition
of tho affair when my father took
charga of it, nnd, though ho really
believed tho butler's istory and tried to
prove it, he could not do It, and tho
man was finally hanged. A year later
n burglar was shot by a policeman In
the city nearest us, and ho confessed
on his deathbed that ho was tho mur
derer of our rich man. Ho had hidden
in tho house early In the evening, had
collec " "ll he could of Jewelry and
other portable valuables, and was about
getting out when he was caught both
by tho old man and the butler, and
that tho 'butler l.ad got the bullet In
tended for him, as ho had run Into the
room Just as the old man fired. Drop
ping everything In hln sudden surprise,
ho had rushed downstalrp and hidden
in the hallway, from where he had
slipped out ns soon as tho front door
was opened. In the excitement ho wa3
not observed, and he got away without
any trouble at all, uh tho nearness to
the city made strangers so common
that their presence excited no suspic
ion. I'll never forget th?.t incident,
and I'll never bo in favor of tho death
penalty on circumstantial evidence, I
don't case how Ftrons it Is. Even
lynch law is less unjust."

Not changed but glorified! Oh, beau

For tho3o who weep,
Mourning tho loss of some dear face de

Hushed Into silence, never more to com

Gone, like the sunshine of another coun

Oh dearest dead, wo saw thy white soul

Behind the face
Bright with tho beauty and celestial
Glory
Of an Immortal grace.
What wonder that we stumble, faint and
weeping,
And sick with fears,
Since thou has left us all alone with sor

Can it bo poesIUo no words shall wel

How will it look, that face that we have

When next wo meet?
Will it be changed, so glorified and

That wo shall know It not7
Will there bo nothing that will say, "I

And I have not forgot?"
Oh faithless heart, tho same loved face

Shall meet theo there.
Less sad, less wistful, in immortal beauty
Divinely fair.
Tho mortal veil washed pure with many
weepings,
Is rent away,
And the great soul that sat within Its
prison
Hath found tho day.
In the clear morning of that other coun

With the pamo face that wo have lovel

Sho shall arise!
Let us bo patient, we who mourn, with
weeping
Some vanished face;
Tho Lord has taken, but to add more
beauty
And a diviner grace,
And wo shall find once more, beyond

Beyond tho skies,
In tho fair city of tho "sure foundations,"
Those heavenly eyes,
With tho same welcome shining through

Pink Tills for Ealo People?'' I had ner
lmd any faith in medicines of that kind u. .
faid but little attention to tho suggestion,
t was not long after this, however, that I
again heard tho pills highly recommended,
by several persons, and then it was that I
decided to gnc thcui a trial and purchased
one box of tho pills. I soon began to notice
an improvement in my condition and befora
the wliole box iiad been taken my health
was so much improved that I was about ready
to begin singing the praises of Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People.
" I was not yet thoroughly convinced nnd
decided to wait a while before growing en
thusiastic over tho results, nnd had begun
on the second box before I was confident
that I had at last found a medicine to meet
the requirements of my case. I discontinued
my calls to tL.l physicians and havo left
them alone since. I am now as well and
ktrong ns I ever was in my life; am entirely
free from nil pains and never felt better in
my life. I eat regularly and sleep llko a
babe. No morn are my slumbers haunted
with fearful dreams and when I retire at
night I go to sleep at once. I regard Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People as my
salvation, nnd would recommend them, to all
Indies troubled as I was. The pills are moro
than what is claimed for them nnd anyone
giving them a trial will soon como to tho
same conclusion regarding their merits that I
have."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People
contain all the elements necessary to give new
life and richness to the blood and restore shat
tered nerves. They are sold in boxes (never
in loose form by the dozen or hundred) nt SO
cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, and may be
had of nil druggists or directly by mail from
