ASSAULTING THE POLICE AT HOLYHEAD.
ASSAULTING THE POLICE AT HOLYHEAD. At the Holyhead Petty Sessions on Wednesday, W. Jones, W. J. Owen, and T. Jones, all from Waterside, were charged with assaulting P.C. Hugh Williams; J. R. Parry, Lewis Roberts, and, 0. Griffith with aiding and abetting William Jones in assaulting the police. Mr W. Huw Rowland rrosecuted on behalf of the police, and Messrs E. G. Roberts, T. R. Evans, and C. E. M. Prichard, appeared for the defen- dants. According to the officer's evidence he was on duty in Waterside on the 27th July, when he saw two drunken men. He arrested W. J. Owen, and asked W. Jones to come and assist him with the other one, but William Jones was said without any provocation to have given the officer a severe blow in the eye, and not satisfied with that struck him three times. The officer then drew his staff out, but it broke, and W. J. Owen threw it into the sea. Thomas Jones kicked him and kicked the constable's cap about. Lewis Roberts and others told the men to go on as they would only get a summons, and that they would make a collection to pay. Lewis Roberts had subsequently asked the officer not to be hard on him. It was contended for the defence that it was the officer's fault in inteferring at first, and it was submitted that J. R. Parry and Lewis Roberts were not there. Wm. Jones was fined X2 and costs or 21 days. W. J. Owen and Thomas Jones were each fined Si and costs or 14 days. Lewis Roberts, J. R. Parry, and O. Griffith were each fined 10s and costs or 7 days.

REMEDY FOR POVERTY.I
REMEDY FOR POVERTY. Philanthropic men and women are theorizing, and trying to explain and modify the evils of po- verty and yet, in spite of the almost miraculous increase of the loaves and fishes," due to modem invention in spite of the advantages of education, and advanced civilization; poverty, as a pestering disease, as a threatening cloud, holds fast upon us. Why, with all our charity, with all our noble. impulses, with all our mighty national progress, why should there be so many helpless—many even J starving ? The cause of general poverty is not in that there is a deficiency, but because too large a percentage of the human race are over-burdened with care; bound and held down by infirmities and disease, rendering them unable to hold their own in the struggle for life and predominence. Thousands of poor mortals are suffering to-day because in younger days, or in the prime of life, they were handicapped by pain and disease. Little—seem- ingly harmless—symptoms, neglected; occasional Hches and pains, bilious attacks, or disturbance of the stomach after meals, were allowed to increase in frequency until they increased by their own momentum—for habits of disease are creases in the body often made as thoughtlessly as a fold in a newspaper, easily smoothed and remedied at first; neglected, they rapidly develop from functional to organic disease, leaving the victim a hopeless invalid." If your liver (by occasional giddiness, nausea, periodical headaches, or unnatural feelings of melancholy) tries plainly to tell you it is over- burdened, helpless, inactive, and weak, listen to I its warnings and enliven it to its normal activity by taking Warner's Safe Cure, which for years has successfully stood the severest tests by those who have tried it for torpidity of the liver and the weaknesses developing therefrom. Mr G. Hall, of 15, Carlton Street, West Hartlepool, writes: I have suffered from biliousness and liver comnlaint from childhood, and I have tried several kinds of medicines, but they gave me very little relief, until I was persuaded to try Warner's Safe (Jure, and I can truly say that I found relief from the first few doses." With health at command who cannot succeed and earn the necessaries of life ?

Vivian's Mandita (1), Mrs Burton's Morwyn (0 99), Mr George Gamble's Eileen (1), Mr F. S. Schwabe's Rhosyn (1), Hon. I Claude Vivian's Soper (1). and Mr H. R. Davies' Glimmer (0'99). Course twelve miles. Start 1 15. All the entries in this race started, Cariad being a little over the line and taking no notice of the recall flag. A prettier sight than the starting and sailing of these little beauties C, could not be conceived, and the wind was just right for them. The Hon Claude Vivian's Soper was the favourite, both on account of local considerations and on account of her reputation and make, but on passing the flagship it was seen that the Ethilda, superbly handled by Mr Jellicoe, had a good lead, and she rounded the mark boat first. Coming back Captain Elias on board the Soper put in everything he knew, and for a couple of miles or so a most exciting and neck and neck race ensued between the two. At last the Soper appeared to gain a lead, and it was then thought she would have no difficulty in maintaining it. Everybody was consequently surprised to fiud the Ethilda again ahead with an increased lead when they next passed the flagship, the Glimmer being second and the Soper (close up) third. These positions were maintained apparently throughout the rest of the race. At any rate that was the order in which they finished, the times being- H. M. S.

Most of the other events on the card were suc- cessfully negotiated, Mr Dudley Darlington adding another to his long list of entries with Little Millie 12-feet centre-board punt), Mr A. Blass coming in second with the Argo, the Gent (Mr W. Soott-Hayward) giving up. In the class f or open sailing boats not exceeding 18ft. keel and not 20ft. over all, the first prize went to the Snowflake, a boat belonging to Mr Evan Williams, contractor, Bangor. There was no entry for the class exceeding 16ft. keel and not over 18ft., and only one in the class for 21ft. keel. In the rowinsr matches, the cup fr four-oared gigs with coxswain, was carried off by the Lighting, W. Roberts, Carnarvon; Mayflower, T. Evans, Bangor, being second; and Otter, F. Litherland, Carnarvon, finishing third. A protest was lodged against Lightning for going the wrong side of the buoy.

LESSONS OF EXPERIENCE.
LESSONS OF EXPERIENCE. Expe,-ier.ce iA an apt teacher, and there ara few so dull or 80 foolish as not to profit by its lessons. But every wise and prudeat person learns not only by his, own experience, but also from thit of others, and by cireful and judicious ob-ervation of the events which occur aroand him, and of their causes and effects, he is enabled to a great extent to shape his own future By his aptness or readiness to seize aU opportunities to improve his condition, and by habits of timely preparation to meet the changes and exigencies of every day life, he avoids many disasters and trials which would overtake and overwhelm him had he been deficient in thise qualities. We know by experi-n ce that the closing summer months are, from a sanitary point of view, among the most important o! the year. Due care now may mean a healthy and happy autumn, and a robust constitu- tIon to meet the trials of the winter season. Neg- lect now may mean a trying autumn and a broken constitution to succumb under the attacks of any ex- ceptional character. There are few person?, indeed, who are not pos- sessed of hardy and robust constitutions that do not already feel that the system needs recruiting after the trying barometrical changes as the p jst monthi. On all sid-s may be heard such expressions as no ap- petite for my food," I feel quite lktnguid," "not up to the mark," these frequant headaches," and a dozan other expressions which all point to the urgent need of some tonic. There are several tonic mixtures to be had, but none which have been so uniformly successful as Gvfiiym Evans' Qiinine Bitters, the Vegetable Tonic. It bas never been known to fail.

UNIVERSITY OF vVAUbS.
UNIVERSITY OF vVAUbS. In the House of Commons on Tuesday, ;M,Ur B. Jones asked the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer whether it was the intention of the Government to continue the grnt of £aooo per annumto the University of Wales ? gir M. Hicks Beach: The grant of £ 3,000 was made for the preliminary expenses of the Univei, sity of Wales last year, and I understand that as this was found insufficient for that purpose, my predecessor in office promised a further grant in the present year. The vote /or that amount will be taken in the supplementary estimates.
|THE UNEJIPLUfEU COMITTEE.
THE UNEJIPLUfEU COMITTEE. In the House of Commons on Tuesday, Mr H. Lewis asked the First Lord of the Treasury whether he was mw in a position to inform the House whether the select committee on distress caused by want of employment would be re- appointed in the course of the present session. Mr A. J. Balfour: My right lion, friend, the President of the Local Government Board, has, I believe, communicated with the chairman of the committee that sat last session—the right hon. gentleman the member for Sterling Burghs. H& has not received any reply, and i have been in- formed that the right hon. gentleman is abroad, so there may be some delay in getting his opinion. I fear if he is unable to serve, and if we take into consideration that four or five members have by the fortunes of war, been excluded from our deliberations, there is not much probability of any good result following the reappoint>nent of the committee. I will, however, consider the matter to the best of my ability.
