THE RECREATIVE EVENING SCHOOLS ASSOCIATION To the Editor of The Times Sir,— Will you allow us, through your columns to appeal to the public for assistance in the volunteer work of this association? We hope next winter session to introduce our recreative and practical classes into some 100 Board and Voluntary Schools in the metropolis, and for those we shall require 1,000 teachers. The experience of the past winter has justified our expectations of the success of the recreative method, and proved that beyond comparatively slight expenditure we need nothing but volunteers. The subjects are simple, especially those which will require the largest number of teachers. Thus, musical drill and the use of the magic lanterns can be learned in a very few lessons; singing, drawing, and sewing of an elementary nature can be taught by any one who can sing, draw, or sew; and by the valuable aid of the Home Arts Association we are able to provide professional teachers for those who are willing to help in our classes for modelling, wood carving, and design. The time we ask for will not exceed one hour a week for each person; and we therefore trust that many will be able to help, the work being found by experience to be very interesting and agreeable and the time of attendance short. Any one who is willing to assist by gift of time or money is requested to communicate immediately with the secretary, 2, Swinton Street, WC, as it is desired to organise classes of volunteers at once. On behalf of the association, we are, yours, &c., Marvin Snelgrove Maurice Niven Newton Parsons, Hon. Sec.

THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON’S BIRTHPLACE To the Editor of The Times Sir,— I have today deposited at the Military Exhibition at Chelsea a most valuable piece of evidence as to the birthplace of the great Duke of Wellington — his census paper of 1851, the first line written by his own hand. In it he states he was born in Ireland, he believes at Athy. This document was given to me and my sister as a great treasure by our friend Major G. Graham, the late Registrar-General. I trust that it will end all controversy on this matter. Faithfully yours, C.G. PALMER 33, Portman Square, NW DISASTERS AT SEA A Reuters’ telegram from Dunkirk says that the British steamer Talisman, bound from Leith, took the ground on Saturday night in the outer harbour, after colliding with the jetty. She has a breach in her bows, but was being lightened and would possibly be able to dock shortly. Captain Lambert and eight of the crew of the steamer Emma were landed at Southampton yesterday from St. Malo. The Emma left Sunderland for Bordeaux on Monday last with coal, and on Sunday night struck a rock off Ushant, sinking four minutes after. All on board were saved in an open boat and landed at Brest the next morning. LATEST INTELLIGENCE (From our Correspondents) SCULLING IN AUSTRALIA Sydney, June 9 As a consequence of the victory of Peter Kemp over Hanlan, a sculling match has been arranged between Searle, the Australian oarsman, and Kemp. The race is to be rowed on July 13. THE JESUITS IN CANADA Toronto, June 9 The Evangelical Alliance of Canada have forwarded to Ottowa a long petition, addressed to the Governor- General in Council, praying his Excellency to disallow the Jesuit Estates Act passed by the Quebec Legislature last session. ANOTHER ROYAL BETROTHAL Berlin, June 9 In Court circles it is rumoured that the betrothal of Princess Louise of Schleswig-Holstein, sister of the Empress of Germany, with the Prince Leopold of Prussia will shortly be announced. SIR R. MORIER St. Petersburg, June 9 The journal Svet condemns what it describes as the indifference of the Russian Press in regard to the attacks made upon Sir Robert Morier by a portion of the German Press, as contrary to the hospitality which should be fully enjoyed by the British Ambassador so long as he retains the esteem of the Russian Government. NEW GUINEA Brisbane, June 9 A series of proclamations have been published with reference to the future government of New Guinea. They prohibit the supplying of natives with firearms, intoxicating liquors, or opium, and forbid all attempts to remove natives from their homes. The proclamations also provide for, the adoption of the laws and Gold Mining Acts in force in Queensland, with payment of rewards for finds of gold at the option of the administrator. SPAIN Madrid, June 9 The Minister of the Colonies has issued a decree today inviting tenders next, in Madrid and Manila simultaneously, for the construction of a railway between Manila and Daguran. SOUTH AFRICA Durban, June 9 Sir. G. Sprigg’s sudden visit to Bloemfontein is supposed to be intended to influence the new President in favour of a common railway and fiscal policy for the Cape and the Orange Free State. The Volksraad was opened yesterday, and the acting President strongly advocated the laying of railways. The action of the Volksraad is uncertain, but there is little doubt that the Cape Parliament would approve the Colesburg-Bloemfontein extension, should the republic co-operate. The Natal trade returns for the past year show that the volume of imports advanced 28 percent, and that of exports 40 percent. The combined values of the trade were £4,300,000.
