ACTING ON A DREAM. A singular case of a dream which con- veyed a warning came under my notice abo?t ten yen; ago, writes "Thormanby" in  '??-" A man waT?Sd »with obtaining money f?m a b?rm?idby false pretences.

THE 1, STYMIE." I The history of the "stymie" has been exercising the minds of golfers lately. It appears. Miss May Bealet in the "Tlhirome a«nd Country" writes, that the first direct mention of etich a contingency is in the St. Andrews code of 1858, which reads that "on mgdal days no stymies ahail be allowed." In the old days, before that time even the six-inch rule was not in existenoo: and a ball that obstructed another was regarded as a justifiable obstacle, the only exception being when the balls actually toudhed one another.

THE ART OF PLAY Miss Honor Morton's hobby on the London School Board was to teach the little to play in the evenings, and on half- holidays, and such lite, and put them through kiss-in-the-ring and i-iaSh^ COTner in 5? style.

Fight Between Arabs FIREMAN SERIOUSLY STABBED. Two Arahs engaged in an altercation m Bute-street, Cardiff, on Friday naght, which resulted in serious injuries to one, alleged to have been caused by stabbing, and the arrest of the other. The prisoner's name is John Mustapha, fireman, and the other man is also an Arab fireman, named Ahmed Said ben Ali. Late at night they met outside the Rothesay. Castle Hotel, and after words had passed Mustapha is alleged to have stabbed the other man with a knife in the arm and back, producing wounds which Dr. Buist regarded as serious, but not danger- ous.

The Ill-fated Pacific I A BARRY 8URVIVOWS STORY. I Andrew Corrigan, one of the survivors of the steamer Pacific, which was wrecked in the North Sea, arrived at Barry on Friday. Cor- rigan is a, fireman. In an interview he gave a graphic description of the terrible plight of the vessel in the hurricane which blew on Wednesday morning. The hatches were smashed in, and in milking for shelter the vessel ran on the Dowsing Sand, and became a total wreck. Each man was served with a lifebelt. aId the lifeboats were launched. The boats, however, were quickly smashed by the terrific seas, and they were all thrown into the water. Corrigan added We all clung to the lines running along the boat's side, and for an hour and three-quarters we were in the water. What our feelings were may be better imagined than described. Everyone did his 1- 'I. Dest lor tne caom uoy ceneon, out presently a wave came along and carried the boat over its crest and turned it completely over upon the five of us who were clinging to it, throw- ing Benson into the sea. The waves carried me down, and I felt the boat on top of me. I dived down and came up about twenty yards from the upturned boat, which was, however, still floating I was swept near the boat, and ther. got hold of the keel. By this time I was exhausted and nearly done, the boat having knocked me on the head and injured me. It was then the trawler Pynewold bore in sig-ht and stood by and I do not know how I came to be picked up, but a fisherman told me that he hauled me on board with a line, and I had blood on my head and face. 'he ca.bin boy was adm picked up, but they failed to restore him to life. ? fpn sorry for the bey. as it was his first voyage.

Votes are return- able to the headquarters of the Amalgama- ted Society of Engineers in London not later than the following Monday. The principal pcint is the masters' demand for a reduction of Is. weekly. It is feared a general lock-out in the engineering trade will follow an adverse ballot.

WRIT FOR THE NEWCASTLE BYE-ELECTION. The "London Gazette" on Friday night contained the Speaker's notice that he will issue in six days the writ for the election of a memibex of parliament for Newoastle-on- Tyne in place of the late Mr. Thomas Cairns. Both liberal and Unionist candidates at Newcastle-on-Tyne addressed meetings of factory and shipyard workmen on Friday. h oa-nmot be definitely said whether a Labour candidate will be submitted, but the local party leaders are disposed to run a nominee in spite of the Nottingham dis- approval. The Newcastle L.R.C. sent a deputation to London on Friday for the purpose of sound- ing the engineers' executive with regard to the propose* candidature of Mr. Stephenson, and it is understood that at a prolonged meeting held at Newcastle on Friday night a telegram received from the deputation was considered. The meeting was afterwards adjourned until to-day. At a meeting of suffragists in the Town- hall Newcastle, on Friday night, under the auspices of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies, it was announced that, as both candidates were equally favourable to women's franchise, the executive had I resolved not to advocate either of them, but to content themselves with propaganda work. The proceedings were considerably disturbed.

Solicitors and Doctor SKIUMONED BY FELTHAMS BANK DIRECTOR A SENSATIONAL CASE • There was a special sitting of the Spel- thorno Petty-sessions on Friday at Fel- tham to hear summonses brought by Mr. Harry Benson, of Woodside, Wimbledon, financial agent, against Albert Osborn and Oscar Osborn. solicitors, of Coleman-street, London, Dr. H. Bishop, physician, of The Laurels, Woodside, Wimbledon, and Henry W. Saunders, solicitor's clerk. The information laid by Mr. Benson, who was a director of the International Secu- rities Corporation and Felthajn's Bank, was that on June 18, in the parish of Staines, The defendants unlawfully, corruptly, wickedly, and maliciously did suborn and procure one Anna Edith Simpson Jones to commit wilful and corrupt perjury in cer- tain affidavits which were made in a certain came lately pending in the High Courts of Justioe (Companies Acts) in the matter of the winding up of the Inter- national Securities Corporation (Limited), before Alex Ross, a commiasioner for oaths. The four defendants were further sum- mon-ed:- That they unlawfully and wickedly did conspire, combine, federate, and agiee to defeat the ends of justioe by fraudulently enticing one Anna Edith Simpson Jones to commit perjury. Mr. Curtis Bennett appeared for the prosecution, Mr. George Elliott defended, and Mr. Philip Conway watched the case for Mr. Geopge Petty, who. with Mr. Benson, is at present under remand at Westminster Police-oourt on charges of conspiracy to defraud. Mr. Curtis Bennett, in opening the caee, said that there was a great amount of evi- dence to be gone through. The case was in many aspects a very serious one, because of the nature of the offence alleged and the standing of the persons involved. The prose- cutor was MI. Harry Benson, who became associated with the International Securities Corporation (Limited), on December Z3 of last year. That company had been dealing a great deal in premium, bonds, and since that da,te the transactions had been perfectly bona tide and honest. Dr. Bishop also beca.me associated with the company, a.nd evidently came to loggerheads with Mr. Benson. That was the beginning of the conspiracy for which the four gentlemen were here. Dr. Bishop had an .interview with a Miss Griggs, a shareholder. Dr. Bishop was apparently taking a great interest in the people who had bonds in the company, and shareholders were requested to communicate with him. Miss Griggs would say that at -that interview Dr. Bishop was telling her that he intended at any cost to ruin the company and Mr. Benson. He went so far as to take Miss Griggs out into the garden of a house, and point out Wandsworth Prison to her, and say, Into that prison do I intend to get Mr. Benson; no matter what it oosts me." Dr. Bishop said he was employing Messrs. Osborn and Oshorn, solicitors. I A LADY AND A PETTPION. Mr. Bennett, continuing, said it appeared that in January of this year a Mrs. Jones, of Gresham-road, Staines, who had for aome months been practically confined to her bed, became the owner of some premium bonds. On June 6 she wrote to Dr. Bishop, and that defendant lost no time in visiting her. On June 9 he told her it was a fraud, and aaked if she was willing to join, with others, in getting up a petition for the winding up of the company. Mrs. Jones consented. Dr. Bishop said that he had Mr. Osborn down- stairs. Mr. Elliott (interrupting) dtid that neither of the Messrs. Osborn was there. Mr. Bennett, it was probably a Mr. Fussell. Mrs. Jones saw him, and on June 11th Dr. Bishop again called, axxompanied by Mr. Saunders, who he did not think it would be disputed was aeting on behalf of Messrs. Osborn and Osborn. The lady was told that it would be necessary to swear an affidavit, and that Dr. Bishop was so magnanimous in getting up a petition that he was paying Y,30 a week to Messrs. Osborn and Osborn towards the costs. It had been alleged that on June 11th a retainer to Messrs Osborn and Oeborn was given by Mrs. Jones. Mrs. Jones would tell them that no paper was read over to her on that day, and without doing so Mr. Saunders got her to sign documents which turned out to be a retainer. With- out any further interview with Mrs. Jones, a petition was filed in the High Court of Justice on June 15th, which on the face of it was solely that of Mrs. Jones—not as she had been led to believe—that of many people. Before being filed it was never brought to her notice or read to her. He described it as a. false petition. It was headed The humble petition of Anna Edith Simpson Jones," and said that "the petitioner has recently and since acquiring ¡ these shares ascertained the following facts and circumstances respecting the promotion and ending, formation of the company and the nature of its business and dealings." The petition set out that the syndicate in many instances did not possess or have at its disposal the means of providing bonds to answer the payments or subscriptions made. The syndicate put forward one and the same bonds as having been acquired by more than one purchase. Furtheir paragraphs said that on or before January 9, 1906, the fraudulent- nature Of the business was well known to Mr. Benson. The company was not, and never had been, pos- sessed of the means of meeting its obliga- tions. The moneys of the company were entrusted to Feltha.ms Bank (Limited), which was not a genuine banking house, or which in any case dealt with the money belonging to customers by lending the same improperly. O..u.uvtiE OF FABRIOATING EVIDENCE. It was not till June 18 that Mr. Saunders again went to Staines and read the body, but not the heading1 of the petition, Mrs. Jones continually interrupting by ex- pressions of ignorance of the statement. She afterwards, however, through affidavits 4Bpressed her belief ill. the truth of the state- nienl. on junie 22, Mrs. Jones dis- covered, for the first time, from an outside source that she had been made the eole petitioner, and had made herself liane foa* the costs if the petition failed. Accordingly, she swore a further affidavit on June 25, saying she had been willing to join with others in a petition, but she had not the slightest idea that it was being made in her name alone. S"Pvosing she had not found it out, said Mr. Bennett, the company might have been wound up, and this false petition mi?ht dely have misled a court of justice. Mrs. Jones also said she was told the matter would not cost her a penny. The result of the discovery was that the petition was dismissed. Mr. Elliott said the costs had been paid by Dr. Bishop. What were the assignments of perj u ry ? Mr. Bennett: I am not proceeding on charges of perjury or subornation of parjury. but on charges of conspiracy to fabricate evidence to mislead a judicial tribunal and to use a petition to mislead the course of justice- Mr. Elliott: You withdraw the perjury? Mr. Bennett said that the summonses were iesned against the four defendants on the Friday, and on the following Monday a warrant was issued against Mr. Benson, and he was arrested, the solicitors being Messrs. Osborn and Osborn. He regarded it as his duty to call in strong question the behaviour of two gentlemen of his own profession, among which one generally found men of integrity and honour. It was worthy of com- ment if the company was so fraudulent that they had gone to an old lady to prove it. Mr. Elliott urged that the case should be adjourned sine die until other matters had been determined in which Mr. Benson was concerned. The Director of Public Prosecu- tion had directed an inquiry into the con- duct ot Mr. Beneon, in connection with these companies. This case might be of almost interminable length, and the inquiry of the Bench might be absolutely negatory. Process bad been refused both at Bow-street and the Guildhall. Mr. Bennett: This Bench has thought fit to issue the summons. Mr. Elliott: Under misapprehension of the true state of affairs. Mr. Bennett suggested an adjournment for three weeks. Mrs. Jones oould not be brought to the court, and the evidence would have to be taketn at her own house. The case was adjourned until October, and the defendants were bound over in the sum of JE300.

STRIKE DISTURBANCE. I HOSTILE DEMONSTRATION I AGAINST MINERS. One thousand miners have gone on strike at two pits at Uddingston, six miles from Glasgow. At one pit 50 packets prevented "lyla,oklegs" from going down, and at the other a hostile demonstration of men, women, and children met at the pit-head the men who had insisted upon working. The men were hooted and jeered at, only reaching home under poklm protection. The miners' families are starving. V

I Driven Out to Sea I LONDON BALLOONISTS' ADVENTURE Picked Up by Pilot Steamer Messrs. Barrington Teoimett and E. Short ascended at Battersea in a balloon on Thursday night, and were driven out to sea by a strong wind. A Renter's telegram from Rotterdam says that both gentlemen were rescued by the pilot steamer Hoek Van Holland in the North Sea. It was ten o'clock in the morning when the balloon with its two passengers was first sighted about fifteen miles to the north of the northern breakwater at the Hook of Holland. The balloon was coming down at the time, and was in danger of falling into the water. A salvage steamer a.nd the pilot vel set out immediately, and the latter took the balloon on board with its two passengers. The gentlemen stated that they had intended.to oss the North See to Belgium, but when at a height of 4,500ft. they were caught in a snowstorm, amd driven towards the Dutch coast. They were both suffering slightly from the effects of their trying experience, but received every attention at the Hook of Holland.Reuter.

Trapped in the Caves THE SOUTHERNDOWN TRAGEDY I The caves where Miss Turner and Miss Jeneon met their fate at Southerndown yesterday are danigerous to those unac- quainted with the coast. The sea only leaves the jutting rocks near the smugglers' caves for about twenty minutes, and people unjaccustomed to the locality may be trapped, if they waste time, like rats in a trap. The young women do not appear to have known anything about the dangerous nature of the coastline, and probably TTere not aware that retreat was being gradually out off. Indeed, it is stated by one gentleman that he saw the ladies paddling, but if this is correct they re-adjusted their clothing, for the body of Miss Turner was fully clothed. It is thought that when the young ladies found the tide was coming dangerously near they attempted to escape towards Southerndown instead of going towards Ogmore, where there would have been possibilities of getting up the cliff. Miss Turner was about 26 years of age, I and resided with her widowed mother at 34, 1 Ledbuiy-road, Hereford. She has a. brother who is manager of Pearks' Tea Stores, Cbw- bri'dge-road, Cardiff, and a sister in the employ of Mr. Hugh Watts, of King's Acre Fields, Newport. Miss Jeneon, who is believed to have no relatives, was a partner in the firm of Painter and Jenson, photographers, Here- ford. She was somewhat younger than Miss Turner. I TRIED TO CLIMB THE ROCKS. The young ladies arrived at Souitheradown on Friday last week, and intended staying another week. They are described as ner- vous persons, who would not have risked danger had they known it. and it is highly probable that they had not the slightest idea of the possibility of being trapped by the sea. Mies Jenaon had taken her camera. with her with, the intention of ta-king photographs. Miss Turner, of Newport, came down in Mr. Hugh Watts's motor-car on Friday morn- ing and identified the body of her sister. The body had a out below the chin, which seems to indicate tha.t Miss Turner attempted to escape by climbing the rocks and fell. The rooks are extremely jagged along the ooast at this point. In conversation with oar reporter. Mrs. Dixon, the landlady, said she thought it singular that the girls did not return to dinner, but she ooncluded that Miss Turner's sister had come down in the motor- oar and ta.ken them for a ride, as she had done on the previous Tu-d-y- it wa6 not until the evening t-h-alt she and her husband became uneasy. HER "ONLY FRIEND. The dog which, accompanied them was a Colombo spaniel, and was a. very affectionate and faithful animal, greatly attached to its mistress. "You may think it silly of me," Miss Jenson once rcm?-ked to Mrs TMvon "to be so fond ? a dog, but? is the only friend I have in the world to love" Miss Turner remarked that the dog would Bd have deserted the girls, a?d it is almost equally e?t?? they wo?d n?" have deserted him.

BILL IN PARLIAMENT, I IPROPOSED WATER BOARD iPRI GLAMORGAN. Mr. J. Blandy Jepresided on Friday at Cardiff at a meeting of the executive water committee for Glamorgan, which com- pnses Wat€T committee of the Glamorgan Ir^r+yi Council and representatives of the boroughs and various district Councils who ST' in favour of the establishment of a water board for the administrative county of Glamorgan. After a long discussion of detail it was unanimously decided to request the Glamorgan County Council to promote a Bill in the next session of Parliament for the, formation of such a board.

UNEMPLOYED TROUBLE AT GLASGOW. Glasgow was quiet on Friday, but the police retain their vigilance, although in a less degree. The unemployed and those who associate with them discuss the position m knots, but are easily persuaded to disperse. The Lord Provost left on Friday to inter- view the Local Government Board with a view to getting increased grants. All the oharitable committees are at work, and a big scheme of relief will be perfected next week • The police retain special bodies of men to cope with, any trouble.

TRIPLE RAILWAY FATALITY Three fatalities occurred on Friday on tne Sottth Western Railway. Two platelayers, John Tribe and Frederick Mant, met with a shocking death in the afternoon rea- Woking Junction. Two expresses were pass- ing, and in getting out of the way of the up train the men got in front of the down express, both being literally cut to pieces. Earlier in the day William Tressider, railway carpenter, was knocked down and killed while crossing the line at Earlsfiedd, near Wimbledon.

PENALTY FOR NOT JOINING SHIP. Richard Toomey, a young seaman, was fined £ 3, or one month, at Newport on Friday for I taaling to join his sfhip after having nego- tiated an advance note.

I WELSH LADIES' MEETING The championship meeting of the Welsh Ladies' Golf Union was concluded on Fri- day on the links of the Carnarvonshire Golf dub at Conw?y.

ABERDOVEY CLUB SUPPORTED BY DISTRICT COUNCIL. A very interesting discussion took place on I Friday at the meeting of the Towyn a.nd Aber- ¡ dovey Urban District Council, based upon a motion to affiliate the local authority with the golf club committee. The object of the mover was to create more loca-l interest in the providing of more prizes, Ac. After several amendments were moved, it was finally agreed to support the golf com. mittee in every respect, and urge upon them to use their best endeavours to invite the Welsh Golfing Union to hold their next meet- ing at Aberdovey in June next. Colonel Rllck, one of the founders of the Welsh Golfing Union, is this year's vice-presi- dent, and this gentleman is a native of Aber- dovey, and was the prime mover in the insti- tution of the Aberdovey Golf Course. At a. meeting of the Aberdovev Ladies' Club I it was decided by the ladies' handicapping committee that, as the-re were so few resi- dent members, they thought it was unneces- sary to join the Ladies' Golfing Union, but they agreed to adopt their method of handi- capping, and have fixed the net per of the green at 75. They have limited at 25. Seveml weMknown personages have been playing over the Aberd new course. They iBoind?

I Notes and Selections. HULL, Saturday Morning. I The concluding day of the Doncaster Meet- ing turned out the most pleasant of the four, the air being quite balmy, and the sun in strong evidence throughout the whole of the proceedings. The attendance was an excel- lent one all round, and included the King, who was indulging in a day's shooting on Thursday. In the Doncaster Cup The White Knight once more disgraoed himself and wis badly beaten. As she ran out at the first turn Dripsey was quite useless as a. pace- maker, and The White Knight relished the task of making his own running so little that he resigned in the tamest possible man- ner at the turn into the straight to Dean Swift, Badium, and Glacis. Of this trio Dean Swift failed to stay seventeen furlongs, and Radium won cleverly from Glacis. Today s sport at Hull promises to be good, but for the Gold Cup there" looks like being a poor field. The weights and distance favour COCKSURE II., who should prove good business. Other selections follow.- Goole Plat-e.-REGISTRAR. Hedon Nursery.-PRETTY VLODY. Humber Selling Plat-e.-TRIP.
