These sessions were held at the Shirehall , Hereford , on Monday , his Honour Judge Ingham presiding . There were only two prisoners for trial - not one from either the Ross or Harewood End Divisions . BICYCLE THEFT . Thomas Edge , 21 , labourer , pleaded guilty to stealing a bicycle , the property of George Albert Sheen , at Titley , on January 3rd , and also to breaking and entering the shop of Henry Wyatt Morris , Kington , and stealing £ 5 12s . 6d . in money and a knife , on March 5th . Prisoner was brought up in a reforma- tory . The day after the theft prisoner went about Kington purchasing new clothes . He was sentenced to two calendar months ' im- prisonment for larceny and six calendar months for housebreaking , the sentences to be concurrent . HOUSEBREAKING . John Daley , labourer , was sentenced to two terms of imprisonment of twelve months each for housebreaking and theft . Prisoner stole £ 5 10s . at one house , at Abbeydore , and at another took a bottle of stout , a plate , and some meat . There were previous con- victions against the prisoner .

This , however , proved to be only " a flash in the pan , " for the " B's " soon took the game in hand , and the Ross defence had a lively time . Foulds played a very tricky On game , but was inclined to be selfish . several occasions he beat man after man , but through trying to score on his own he robbed his side of many good opportunities . The homesters ' first goal was rather unex- pected , for with a fast movement the quintet went down the field , and Powell crowned the effort by scoring a good goal . Ross again pressed after this , but for the second time their play deteriorated after a few minutes , and the " B's " were again in the picture . Davies , on the right wing , made good use of the ball when he had a chance , but he was poorly fed . He sent in a rasping first- time drive , which Bullock only just succeeded in diverting round the post for an unproduc- tive corner . Ross again made one of their Spasmodic attacks , and were awarded a free Hackburn Rovers winning on Saturday and kick dangerously near the penalty area .

THOMAS . - It is with regret that we have to chronicle the death Mrs. Thomas , the esteemend wife of Mr. Richard Thomas , sen . , who passed away on Friday last , April 3rd , at an ad- vanced age . For many years as managing director of the Lydbrook Tinplate Works . Mr. Richard Thomas , with the deceased lady , resided at Bishopswood , and afterwards removed to " The Poplars , " Upper Lyd- brook . When the management passed over to Mr. R. Beaumont Thomas , the eldest son , Mr. and Mrs. R. Thomas , sen .. retired to Penarth , and it was here where the deceased peacefully passed away . The body was con- veved to Upper Lydbrook Station by the mid - day train on Tuesday last , and interred in the family vault in Lydbrook Churchyard , among tokens of the deepest respect . The body was carried from the railway station to the Church by six of the eldest employees lately engaged in the village tin works . and the chief mourners were Messrs . Richard Beaumont , Frank , Herbert , and Wyndham , all sons of the deceased , and among others who followed in the funeral procession were Messrs . G. and F. Damsell , Mr. J. Davis , one of the managing direc - vice at Pembroke Dock . " tors of the firm , Mr. C. T. Bishop , Head- master of the Lydbrook . Council Schools ; Mr. J. Davies , Headmaster of the Joys Green Council Schools ; Mr. J. Little , Mr. A. J. Russell , and representatives from the Lyd- ney Tin Works . The funeral service was conducted by the Rev. Hubert A. Corke , Vicar of Holy Apostles . Cheltenham , who is , in the absence of the Vicar , the Rev. G. A. Hopkins , doing duty with a series of Holy Week services . The opening of the vault and other matters connected with the funeral were entrusted to Mr. E. J. Flewel- ling , builder and undertaker , of the village , and satisfactorily carried out .

Teams enjoy- ing the supposed advantage of playing at home met with a seant measure of success , the record of the day's doings showing that only two sides won on their own grounds . These were Fulham , who , in a keen match , defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers , and Notts Forest , who overcame Leeds City . Four games ended After the breather , the Ross vanguard showed improved form , perhaps this being due to Battersea , who came inside to Harvey . Ross went off in fine style , and were soon on the attack , giving the home defence plenty of hard work to accomplish . This they in victories for visiting clubs , and the remain- did in good style , but Ross , after some part - ing four were drawn .

After this the home team kept the Kyrle men out , and the whistle blew for time with the final score : - Hereford City B.

A meeting of those interested will shortly be held to con- sider the suggested scheme . It will probably surprise most people to learn that as many as 200 separate clubs are registered and recognised by the Croquet Association . So far from the game being & mere Victorian survival , it is now most scientific pastime , which requires no small skill to play , the hoops being now only just wide enough to admit the ball . As much care seems to be devoted to making a good lawn for the game as is observed in laying out a golf green . During the week Crystal Palace had drawn level with Swindon , and each gaining a vie tory on Saturday they remain on equal terms at the head of the Southern League , Swindon being entitled to the premier position because of a superior goal average . Portsmouth went down before the leaders much more readily than expected , and the 5 goals to scored raise Swindon's record for the season to nearly two to one . This splendid victory was the more noteworthy as , in the absence of Fleming , playing for England , a trial given to Rogers . in the centre , Wheatcroft partnering Jefferson on the right . So success- nl did the experiment prove that the recruit obtained no fewer than four goals , all the three that wer got in the first half , and the last of the match was from a penalty taken by Tout .
