WELSHMEN ARE GLAD
Red Dragon to Have a Place Once
More in Heraldry.
IN Accordance with Kings Orders
Badge of Wales Now Appears on
the Royal Banner of Eng
lands Heir Apparent.

There Will be rejoicing in Wales, and
among loyal Welshmen the world over,
now that the Red Dragon of Cadwal-
lader is to find his due place in the
heraldic achievement of the prince Of
Wales by order of the king in coun-
ell that there be added to the achieve
ment Of the prince of Wales the badge
of the Red Dragon" This ancient
badge Is TO be borne-as a badge, of
course, and not quartered in the shield
of the prince-on the sinister side (the
spectators right, that is) of the royal
crest as heir apparent, while the an
cient badge Of the ostrich feathers is
on the other side, the crest and the
two badges appearing thus in line over
the shield. The badge of Wales, as
defined in the kings order, is: "On
a mOuntvert dragon passant gules,
dltferenced as is the royal crest with
a label of three points argent" The
duke of Norfolk, the earl marshal of
England, is charged to see that the
necessary directions be given. The
accompanying picture is a careful
drawing of the Red Dragon of Cadwal-
lader of Wales, made from a painting
in one of the heraldic manuscripts in
the British museum, a manuscript
which contains colored drawings of
the royal badges from Edward III
down to King Edward VI, and it was
presumably written in the days of Ed
ward VI.
A reproduction is also given of the
banner of King Henry VII, taken from
the Vincent MS, No. 152, in the Col
lege of Arms, from which it will be
seen that that king quartered the red
dragon in a banner with his other
badges. Henry also used the dragon
as a supporter. and it can be seen with
the white greyhound in the chapel at

spring. Like a yellow streak its
body leaped toward the cockatoo.
Quick as its leap was it was not
quick enough for the sagacious Blan-
CO. As the cat leaped into the air
Bianco met the animal with his great
horn-like claws, striking il squarely
III the face
Surprised, but not shaken in cOur-
age, the cat rolled over and over, and
after recovering itself gave a faint
ccy and leaped again. This time
BlancO struck it yiciously with one
claw and one wing, knocking it spin
ming, at the same time shricking out
in his high voice: "Blanco, Blanco!
Scat. scat! Aw, poor pussy, poor
pussy"
Again the cat came to time, and
again did the bird meet it squarely
in the face with its claws, and then,
before it could recover itself to spring
again, Blanco jumped on its back,
picking its body with a vengeance
that made the fur fly. For over five
minutes both bird and animal waged
battle, until, weakened bg loss of
blood and the terrific drubbing ad-
ministered to it by the bird, the cat
crawled out in the alley, where it
dropped dead.

BANNER OF HENRY VII.
RED DRAGON PAssANT.

Windsor supporting a pOrtcullis en-
signed with a rose. From his time the
Tudor monarch used the dragon as
one of the supporters of the royal
arms. Henry VII. descended from
Owen Tudor, thus proclaimed his
Welsh ancestry, but the dragon
dropped out when the Stuart dynasty
succeeded, and has not reappeared un-
Ill now, at last, the king, with his
usual gracious sympathy with national
aspiration has restored it to the
achievement of arms of the heir ap-
parent, who takes his title from the
principality. In 1898 the complaint
was that Wales was not represented
on the coinage, and as Wales claims to
possess shield of arms as we'll as a
badge, ii was then said that these arms
Quarterly or and gules for lions pas
SAINT guardant cOunterchanged) ought
to be quartered with England, Scot
land and Ireland in the royal banner.
while another suggestion was that the
red dragon should be made a charge
and quartered on the banner.
From the quartered banner of King
Henry VII. it Will be seen that the
red dragon was actually so quartered,
but IL was quartered with other badges
of the king. and not with the royal
arms. # is as a badge, and correct
ly so, that the red dragon now reap
pears in the achievement of the heir
apparent This drawing of the red
dragon from the British museum is
reproduced from the original manu-
script Just as it there appears, with

could have been sent out if occasion
required it. Mr.. Watts is, of course,
best known as a naval designer. He
was trained in the service, passing
through the college Of naval architec-
ture with high honors, and became a
constructor at the admiralty, under
Sir Nathaniel Barnaby. He left the
service in 1855, and became naval arch
itect to the distinguished firm of Sir
W. Armstrong, Whitw6TtI q Co., when
Mr. White. as he then was, vacated that
post. During his stay at Elswick, he
has built whole fleets of ships for more
than one navy. In the war between
Japan and China his ships fought on
both sides in the fight, and those best
able to judge have declared that they
fulfilled all the conditions for which
they were designed in a very high de-
gree. Amongst other nations, Chilli
possesses many ships of Mr.. Watts de-
sign, and so does the Argentine Re-
public. From the first Mr.. Watts
ships have been well shaped and have
possessed weIl-balanced engines of
great power; they have had greater
speed than most other ships of SIM
liar construction and size and they have
carried heavier armaments. Mr.. Watts
is 80 years of age. He is the chairman
of the Federation of Shipbuilders in
England, a good shot and rider, and
keen, all-rOund sportsman.
