W ynne Paynter, J.P., Maesyllwyn, who was for- merly high sheriff of the county. The town had been prettily decorated with banners, &c., there being scarcely a house in the vicinity without some bunting. The cere- mony was performed at St. Eleth Church, the officiating clergymen being the Rev Z. Paynter Williamson, R.D., vicar of Marg&m (cousin of the bride), and the Rev J. F. Reece, rector of Llanfwrog, Ruthin (brother- in-law of the bride), assisted by the Rev T. Lloyd Jones, vicar of Amlwch. The best man was Mr T. Fanning Evans, Mori a Lodge, cousin of the bridegroom. The bride, who was given away by her cousin, Mr C. E. Paynter, of Claugliton, looked exceedingly graceful. She was attired in a gown of ivory duchesse satin trimmed with duchesse lace and orange blossoms. She wore orange blossoms in her hair with tulle veil. She carried a bouquet of white exotics. The bridesmaids were the Misses Paynter, Ty- ddyn Dai; Miss Hurlbutfc, of London and Miss Segar, of Buxton. They wore dresses cf creme fancy cloth trimmed with lettuce green Bengaline silk and Brussels applique lace, and black picture hats. They also wore gold bangles, and carried bouquets of pink roses, both the gifts of the bridegroom. After the ceremony Mrs Paynter, the bride's mother, held a reception at Maesyllwyn. The presents numbered about 200, %nd were very costly and beautiful. Amongst them were the following: Gold necklet, Mrs Paynter; silver tray, Mr and Mrs J. W.

BALA. COUNTY COUNCIL INQUIRY. On Monday, the Hon. C. H. Wynn (Rug), Alderman E. Griffith (Dolgelley), and Coun- cillor T. Jones (Llanuwchllyn), held an inquiry on behalf of the Merioneth County Council in regard to those parts of Llanfor and Llanycil parishes that are within the urban district. Mr J. R. Jones, solicitor, appeared on behalf of the Bala Local Board for leave to extent the boundaries so as to include some fields on both sides of the town, and that the Tryweryn and Dee rivers be made the boundary line at one end and the lake at the other. Th3 Rector of Llanfor strongly objected to any part of his parish being joined with the local board district, as the rates would cooae heavier upon him. A few farmers from Llanycil appeared and said there was strong opposition to any division of the parish. Mr J. R. Jones ex- plained that the changes would not effect the rates. The new boundary would enable the local board to improve the surroundings of the town and the lake for the convenience of visitors. The commissioners, after con- sultation, allowed the application of the local board.

BANGOR. MEMORIAL TO THE LATE LORD PENRHYN.—At a special English service at St. Mary's Church, on Sunday morning, the Bishop of the diocese performed the ceremony cf unveiling and dedicating a stained glass window erected by subscription in memory of the late Lord Penrhyn, and of dedicating brass candlesticks for the altar presented by Mr John Pritchard, Bodhvfiyd, in memory of two children. In the course of his sermon the Bishop said he had dedicated the window in memory of one of their greatest and most: beloved noblemen, the late Lord Penrhyn. His life was one of service and devotion to his Queen, country, Church, and State, and his memory would live ever green amongst those who had known him. The churches in the diocese would remain for generations under the deepest obligations to his generosity and munificence. He was a never-failing friend of the poor and needv. a generous benefactor of many if noi all their local in- stitutions, generous in sympathy towards those who differed from him in religious and political creed, yet a staunch defender of the National Church and a liberal patron of edu- cation in its various phases. He supported with unwavering zeal every society connected with the Church in the diocese, and exhibited to the world at large a loftv and stimulating ideal of conduct worthy cf the exalted PON- tion which in God's providence he was called upon to occupy. He identified himself with every movement which was calculated to ad- vance and elevate xthe Welsh people, and though dead he still spoke to them.—The Rev Canon David Jones (Llandegai) preached at tho aftenioi; service. n;:u the Rev Canon Roberts (Colwyn Bay) at the evening (Welsh) service Collections were made during the day in aid of the fund for painting and deco- rating tho chancel, £200 being necessary to complete the work. The subject of the mmorial whitlow is the Nativity. Each ser- vice was largely attended. Lady Penrhyn was present in the morning.

BETHESDA. COUXTY SCHOOL.—A meeting of the governors was held on Saturday afternoon, there being present: —The Rev D. Adams, B.A. (in the chair), Mrs Closs Williams, Miss Jones, Messrs J. Moses Jones, H. H. Davies, Councillor Brymer J. Jones, the Rev R. Wil- liams, M.A., and Mr W. Twigge Ellis. The Clerk read a letter from Mr Humphrey Ellis, Tai'rmeibion, near Bangor, intimating his in- tention to contribute 224) towards the build- ing fund. Several letters were read from parents of scholars asking that the railway f-.rea as well as the necessary books be paid for by the governors, and it was decided to comply with the request as to the' fares m seme special cases and to award an augmen- tation fee of Sl to the best scholar, Master Robert Jones, Llanlleehid British School. The Clerk was instructed to apply to Lord Penrhyn for a lease of land for the pur- pose cf a recreation ground and also to for- ward the plans of the proposed temporary premises to the Charity Commissioners for their approval. The building fund now stands r.t £ 694, which, however, does not include Lord Penrhyn s promised donation 02 £20(1. On Thursday evening a joint meet- iug of the governors and the office bearers of the various churches and cuapels was held, the Rev D. Adams in the caa:r, at which the Clerk (Mr D. Griffith Davies) reported that the amount of the contributions received towards the building fund included a dona. tion of £ 30 from Mr E. A. Young, of Tany- bryn, Bangor. It was also reported that some of the churches had noi yet forwarded their contributions. It was, however, stated that Ehhylag intended paying the sum of £ 20, and several other representatives intimated that their respective churches would hand over the amounts due at an early date. The meeting expressed great pieasurs en being i informed that the movement would have the hearty support of the Rev M. Morgan, of St. Ann's Vicarage.

COLWYN BAY. THE NEW PIER.-It is reported that the promoters of the new pier at Llandrillio-yn- Rhos, have been negotiating with Dr Roland Rogers, Bangor, for his services next season as conductor of the concerts which it is ) intended to hold in the pavilion on the pier. We are given to understand that Dr Rogers has accepted the post.

CONWAY. A NEW MINISTER.—On Sunday the Rev Thomas D. Jones, of Bootle, Liverpool, com- menced his ministry at Zion Congregational Church, Conway. LOCAL GOVERNMENT INQUIRIES.— On Tuesday, Mr Thomas Coddrington, C.E., held an inquiry at the Guild Hall respecting an application by the town council to the Local Government Board, for permission to borrow JE2500 for gas extensions, and JE1500 for water main extensions. There was no opposition, and evidence having been given by Mr T. B. Farrington, C.E., borough surveyor, the inquiry closed. Subsequently Mr Coddrington conducted an arbitration re- specting a dispute between the town council and the County Council as to the contribution of the county towards the cost of the main roads within the borough. The mayor (Dr roads within the borough. The mayor (Dr Prichard, J.P.), the town clerk (Mr T. E. Parry), and the borough surveyor (Mr Farrington) represented the corporation. For the County Council, Mr Bodvel-Roberta (clerk) and Colonel Sackville West (chairman of the finance committee) were present. The town council claims £100 per mile, while the County Council allows only £65.

CWMYGLO. THE CHURCH SUNDAY SCHOOL had a very pleasant trip to Llandudno last Saturday. The day being fine all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The children, and every one in the congregation who could not afford to pay, had free tickets given them, through the kindness and generosity of those who had the hearts and the means to assist. The Rev D. C. Morgan, Messrs T. Roberts, W. Thomas, H. Price, J. T. Morris, and H. Morris kindly assisted to make the trip pleasant and successful.

FESTINIOG. THE BIBLE SOCIETY.-The Rev P. J. Roberts, of Llanfairfechan, addressed a series of meetings at different" chapels in Festiniog last week on behalf of the British and Foreign Bible Society. The contribution of the local branch to the parent society for 1894 was jB80, while £ 30 was paid for Biblee.

FLINT FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE CHEMI- CAL WORKS.—An accident occurred at the Chemical Works on Friday, resulting in the death of John Gordon, of the Marsh, a bleach- ing powder packer. Gordon, who was 60 years of age, while crossing a line which passes through the works was struck by an engine and knocked down. The driver at once stopped the engine, dismounted, and removed from Gordon's mouth the cover which the workers in that department wear. He found him quite dead. An inquest was opened on the body in the afternoqp before Mr Alun Lloyd, deputy coroner. Evidence j was given by Miss Mary Gordon, and the inquiry was adjourned for the attendance of the Government inspector.

HOLYHEAD. ADVERTISEMENTS.—Mr J. G. Hughes, 10, Market-street, receives advertisements for The Holyhead Mail, Carnarvon and Denbigh Herald, and Yr Herald Cymraeg. The Monthly Meetings of tho St. Cybi Habitation of the Primrose Loague will be resumed on Tuesday, October 2nd, at 8 p.m. —Advt. THE BRITISH SCHOOLS.—A short time ago the Educational Department decided to close the British Schools on account of insufficient accommodation. These schools were erected in 1848, and were sub- sequently altered and eularged. The site was the gift of the late Lord Stanley of Alderley and Hon. W. O. Stanley, of Pen- rhos. The schools have a splendid record, having turned out men who now occupy some of the highest social, clerical, and educational positions in tho Principality. The schools have 600 on the roll, with an average attendance of about 500 scholars. ¡ In the event of the schools being closed the town would be put to the enormous outlay ( of JE6000 in replacing them, an outlay which would be keenly felt by tho ratepayers in the present state of bad trade in the town. The management of the schools has been carried on at a very small cost beyond the grant earned by the schools, the balance having come from private subscrip- tions. The duties of secretary have been performed by Mr Elliot, of the Penrhos Estate Office, gratuitously for the long period of a quarter ofja century at consider. able labour and sacrifice, he having sue- ceeded the late Rev William Griffith, Iude- pendent minister of this town. The com- mittee determined to endeavour to meet the Department by providing increased accom- modation. They usod the house formerly occupied by the master for school purposrs. TIi); however, has 1J{>en found utterly iu- adequate, and after submitting a number of plans to) the Educational Department, one has been finally accepted by that Department, the enlargement to be approached by ground nowly acquired ag a kind gift of Lord j Stanley of Alderley. It may be pointed out that the school is carried out on UDS> ctarian lines, the teaching staff representing all the denominations of the town. The manage- went is carried out by a committee made up of all sbades of religious opinion in the iccality, and it has performed its work with I all efficiency and economy. They are to be j congratulated on having brought matters so far to such a satisfactory issue, and it will be a matter of lasting regret, if those who have the management of the school will not receive from their fellow townsmen the much needed financial support that is required at this juncture. Already indica- tions are apparent that the required help is likely to be forthcoming, and the committee have, on the prospect of this, determined to commence building operations with as much expedition as possible. The grant earned by the schools last year was JE376 5s, which is the largest grant earned in the neighbour- hood, when Llaingoch Board School is not counted with the Park Board School. H.M.S. "NORTHAMPTON," which is cruising round the British coast recruiting, is at present at Holyhead. Over 300 of the crew were on shore on Sunday last, and the police state that the men conducted them- selves extremely well. ACCIDENT TO AN ENGINEER.-On Sunday, an engineer belonging to the Egrit," of Cork, received severe injuries in the head by falling into the stoke-hold. No one witnessed the accident. The steamer was in the Queen's Harbour at the time, and had put in for shelter, being bound from Liverpool to Dunkirk. The engineer's name ia Charles Hart, residing at Bootle, Liver- pool. His condition is considered critical. LIFEBOAT PRACTICE.-On Tuesday morning, guns were fired at the Coastguard Station, calling the lifeboat crews together, for the purpose of practising. As the wind was blowing rather stiffly at the time, and a thick fog prevailing, a number of people assembled to watch the launching of the lifeboats, being under the impression that a vessel or vessels must have gone ashore. Happily, however, this was not the case, TERRIBLE ACCIDENT AND ITS SEQUEL.—Shortly before noon on Monday, the splendid steamer Ching Wi," of London, put into Holyhead flying a flag, in- dicating that medical assistance was imme- diately required. Boats were put off from H.M.S. "Colossus" and "Northampton." It was discovered that one of the crew, a Chinaman named Ai Tuck, had accidentally fallen into the machinery, and was terribly mutilated. He was immediately removed to the Stanley Hospital, and one of his legs was amputated. The poor fellow has since suc- cumbed to his fearful injuries. The steamer was bound from Newport to Liverpool. THE STANLEY HOSPITAL.—There may be a few people interested in Holyhead who do not know and appreciate the good work done by that quiet little building on its quiet little island known as the Stanley Hospital, but it has been brought prominently to the front during the week by an influx of patients, whose necessities have taxed its staff beyond anything it has hitherto had to cope with. On Sunday an engineer who had met with an accident on board a steamer hailing from Liverpool was brought in, and as it was at once recognised that the case was an urgent one he was placed in the separate wing of the hospital, and remained in an unconscious condition for several hours. The nursing staff merely consists of the matron and one probationer, who remained up all night with him. On Monday morning the hospital was again called upon to receive a critical case, and a Chinaman with leg hopelessly injured was admitted. Amputa- tion was effected, but he succumbed to his injuries shortly after. While the matron had been attending the operation, the pro- bationer had remained with the engineer, who was hourly beooming more and more delirious. She was assisted by one or two of the patients in the endeavour to calm him, but gradually all control was impossible, and in spite of her endeavours to restrain him he succeeded in leaping from the bed, and, being a particularly powerful man, the nurse was slightly hurt in the scuffle. The matron hurried from the main building, but owing to the frenzied condition of the poor man, her efforts were totally unavailing, and he succeeded in wrenching the door open and getting out of doors. Help was, however, speedily at hand, and Dr Hughes having been summoned, the poor man was brought back to the ward. The matron and nurse, who nobly endangered their own lives to save that of their patient, have both suffered ,the former having been injured in her face, which will cause an enforced ab- sence from her duties for a short time. The hospital is now reinforced by two additional nurses from Liverpool, but such emergencies as these would seem to point to the great necessity of more help financially for the Stanley Hospital, so that a larger staff could deal adequately with critical cases, instead of precious hours slipping by while help is being summoned from other centres. The engineer is suffering from concussion of the brain, but it is not known how he met with the accident.

MARRIAGE OF MISS WILLIAMS, BOSTON HOUSE. On Wednesday, great rejoicing was ap- parent in Holyhead and its vicinity on the occasion of the marriage of Miss Mary Eliza- beth Williams, eldest daughter of Mrs Wil- liams, Boston House, to Mr John Edmund Davies, Stoneleigh, North-road, Milford Haven. Miss Williams is known to a large circle of friends, and is very popular on account of her genial disposition, combined with business tact and courtesy shown to all classes of the community. The ceremony was celebrated at the Welsh Wesleyan (Bethel) Chapel, Victoria-road, the officiating ministers being the Rev Lewis Owen and Rev W. Lloyd. The bride was attired in primrose colour China silk, Honiton lace and hat to match, and wore gold brooch, the gift of the bridegroom. The best man was Mr R. Henry Williams, chemist, Upper Brighton, Cheshire, brother of the bride. The bridesmaids were Miss Amy Williams, sister of the bride; Miss Rhoda Davies, sister of the bridegroom and Miss Lila Jones, cousin of the bridfc. The bridesmaids wore beautifully attired in lemon colour crepon, with hats to match, carrying choice bouquets, and wearing gold brooches, the gift of the bridegroom. The bride was given away by her uncle, Mr J. W. Jones, Bodwarren, Holyhead, and Preswylfa, Carnarvon. The chapel was beautifully decorated on this auspicious occasion. Miss Owen, Bryn, on their retiring from the building played the Wedding March in a very excellent way. After the ceremony, the wedding breakfast was served at Boston House, and in the afternoon the young couple proceeded to Buxton on their honeymoon. The presents were valuable and numerous, of which the I following are a list:— Silver tea ai d coffee servico. Mr and Mrs Daviea Milford Haven China tea *«t. Mi.«s Rhoda Davies Silver hot water jag.

LLANDUDNO. HARVEST THANKSGIVING.-The com- missioners have appointed the 11th October to be observed as a day of thanksgiving for the harvest by the various chapels and churches in the town. POLICE PROMOTIONS.-Supt. Hughes, Pwllheli, being pensioned, and Inspector Prothero appointed Chief-constable of Anglesey, Col. Ruck had several posts to confer. At Llandudno the feeling pervaded the town that Sergeant Rowland would be lost to us. Such is the fact, for he has suc- ceeded Supt. Hughes as inspector at Pwllheli. Mr Rowlands had greatly endeared himself to all classes here. He was diligent in the discharge of his duties, and those often of a disagreeable kind, but which he performed with kindness, tact, and discretion. His relations with the constables under his charge were very happy, and they feel sorry at his departure. He promoted ambulance classes, and the considerable numbers who passed can give first aid with much skill and intelligence. The London Council lately conferred upon Sergeant, now Inspector, Rowland tho very distinguished honour of the Order of Chevalier of St. John of Jeru- salem. His wife was very kind, and helped in cases of sickness, and. her dear face will be missed from amongst us. His two daughters, both thoroughly capable singers, invariably gave their services freely and willingly, and often at some sacrifices. The town has already collected about £ 70 as a testimonial to one who has proved himself such a worthy officer, and he has left behind friends who wish him and family every prosperity.-The return here of Sergeanti Rees from Bangor has given entire satis- faction to both the town and his brother constables. OBITUARY.—We regret to record the death of Mir Hugh Jones, Rowena House, Madoc-street. The sad event took place at his residence on Monday last. The deceased, Madoc-street. The sad event took place at his residence on Monday last. The deceased, who was one of the oldest inhabitants of Llandudno, was 70 years of age, and was related to the Rev Hugh Jones, of Ruthin, a Baptist minister, who was a well known figure in that denomination. MUSICAL RECITAL.—Last Monday afternoon, at the Victoria Palace, a grand pianoforte and violin recital was given by Sir Charles and Lady Halle. The selections played were from the works of Chopin, Vieuxtemps, Dvorak, Schubert, Stanford, and Beethoven. A MAMMOTH LOAF.—Mr Hugh Jones, Madoc-street, specially bake$last week a huge loaf, measuring about two feet four square, to be despatched to an exhibition of Ie bakery held in London by a firm of barm vendors. The loaf was the largest ever baked ia Llandudno. Our readers will ( doubtless remember those loaves which from time to time have appeared in the pro- I cessions on May-day, but this production of the bakery, for magnitude, excels them. Whether its quality is of such a kind as to deserve a prize, will not be decided for a month, we learn. NEW BAPTIST CHAPEL.-On Wednes- day afternoon, the ceremony of laying the memorial stones of the now Baptist chapel at Fenrhynside, was performed by Captain Parry (Cadlington House), Mr Evan Roberts, junior (Manchester), Mrs Davies (Bryn Cryno), Mrs Elias Jones, Mr E. H. Williams. A public tea pd,rty was held at four o'clock. In the evening a public meeting was held in the Independent Chapel, presided over by Dr Gethin Davies, Bangor, at which an address was delivered by Mr William Jones (Oxford) on The European Awakening, aud its lesson for Wales."

THE PIER CONCERTS. Though the season is on the wane, there is no decline in the quality of the entertain- ments provided at the pier pavilion. Last Thursday morning the following ex- cellent programme was performed to a large and .appreciative audience —March, Hun- ter overture, Prometheus valse, "Jona- than polka de concert, L' Artist," cornet, Mr Taylor; selection, "La Traviata" over- <t(uJe'.7"Le„Diftdemeserenade andalouse, bevillana mazurka, L' Auvergnate" • selection on airs up to date, Carnevalia" galop, Montpelier." At the evening con- galop, "Montpelier." At the evening con- cert, Mr Charles Chilly was as much a l favourite as ever, and was loudly encored ¡ upon his every appearance He sang "In his old chair," and "Mary Morison." The latter is one of Sullivan's well known songs, and its rendition bv the popular tenor was admirable. Mr Mayne sang "Blue-eved Nancy, a racy song of a sailor lad about tho girl that he adored. Mr Mayne also sang Off to Philadelphia" with great spirit, and just that amount of Irish accent which was requisite to add zest to the rendering. Mr Reed's violin solo, "Andante and moto per- petuo," by Raff, was an item which added greatly to the value of the programme. Mr Reed's playing is skilful and very tuneful. The orchestra played selections from N acht- lager in Granada, Der Arme Jonathan, Le Fremersberg, and Boabdil. An excellent programme was gone through on Friday morning. In the evening Mr Chilley sang "The Carnival" and "Good Company." Mr M. B. Spurr, the eminent humorist, gave great satisfaction, and created a good deal of merriment. He gave a zither interlude, a musical medley, entitled" Ham, let up to date," as well as a musical sketch, "A Vocal Recital." It is pleasant to find that Mr Bartle gives an opportunity to the various members of his orchestra to show of what stuff they are made by appointing them to give a solo. Mr J. S. Hughes, who played a fantasie on Scotch airs on the clarinet, made a most favourable impression. He played exquisitely, as a professional of Mr Hughes's standing was bound to do. The orchestral music, consisted of selections from Radetzky, "The Land of the Mountain and the Flood," "Excelsior," "Shepherd Life in the Alps," and an idyll, The forge in the forest." On Saturday morning, selections were played from the works of Hermann, Waldtenfel, Eilenberg, Ganne, and Sullivan. The thirteenth grand special concert was held in the evening, when there was a full house. Miss Evangeline Florence had a flattering reception, which her splendid singing fully justified. She sang The Swiss Echo," and Butterflies," and was encored on each occasion. Mr M. B. Spurr was again highly successful. His zither interlude was a most pleasing composition. The musical sketch, A Christmas pantomime," was full of excellent characterisation; the description of the crowd at the door was very realistic and humorous. Mr Spurr in that part had an opportunity of displaying his mimetic power. As an encore he sang The Irish schoolmaster and the boy." In the second part of the programme, he was down for a sketch, The piano as she is played," which was equally humorous with the former. Mr Bartle's piano solo Etude" nnd "Staccatto Caprice" (tbe former by Lizst, the latter by Vogrich) was encored, when he played Home, Sweet Home with variations. This was evidently a revelation as a performance to most of the auditors, as they showed a very manifest desire to have it repeated.
