A Llanrwst Conference. TEMPERANCE AVORKERS OPTIMISTIC. Llanrwat was on Wednesday and Thursday the locate of the twelfth annual conference oi the Denbighshire and District Temperance As- sociation, which was attended by representa- tives from all parts of the county. The proceed- ings were marked by great enthusiasm and con- fidence. Additional interest was thrown into Thurs- day's proceedings by the presence of Sir J. Herbert Roberts, Bart., M.P., who occupied the chair at the morning and afternoon gatherings, at the first of which he delivered an encouraging address to temperance workers. The conference opened on Wednesday evening at Horeb Chapel, when an address to children was delivered by Mr. D. Pryce Jones, New- borough. The chair, was occupied by Mr. W. G. Owen,, who also addressed the youngsters on the impoirtance of temperance. THE NEW SECRETARY. At half-past ten on Thursday, at Horeb Chapel, Sir J. Herbert Roberts, M.P., presiding, the proceedings were opened by the Rev. John Roberts, Rhyl, alter which an address was de- livered by the President. Sir Herbert Roberts, Bart., M.P., in his ad- dress from the presidential chair, deplored the loss of the Licensing Bill, but asked the Welsh people not to lose heart, because the time had come when some drastic reform must be effected at Westminster. Wales would not lightly pass over the treatment which the Lords had ac- corded a measure .in which her whole people were so keenly interested. (Applause.) It was a good omen for the cause that the Rev. Glyn Davies had come to North Wales as the secre- tary of the North Wales Association. There was a large field of urgent work before him, and he (Sir Herbert) appealed to all to give him eveiy possible assistance in that wonk. (Ap- plause.) Sir Herbert Roberts went on to say that the Association continued to believe that the greatest power in Wales was the pulpit. But they were also coming to believe that it was very necessary for them to have, still more than they had in the past, the direct co-operation of the teachers of the elementary and other schools in the country. (Applause.) They also hoped to do more effective work in the direct teaching of temperance principles to the children in the elementary schools. (Applause.) Biuit to his mind the most encouraging sign of all in the present temperance situation in Wales was the astonishing success of the North Wales Women's Temperance Union. He heard of all that was being done by and through that organisation from the Presi- dent of the Union—(applause),—and he rejoiced to know that Lady Roberts was privileged to take a leading part in its work. (Applause.) Encouraging reports of the work being done in the districts were presented by a number of delegates, and the Rev. Benjamin Hughes (St. Asaph), the hon. treasurer, submitted a balance- sheet showdog a small balance in hand. He in- timated that forty-three churches in the country had made collections towards the funds of the Association, but many churches had not ex- tendjed that support which was expected of them. He hoped that next year all would give some financial help, however little. (Applause.) On the motion of the Rev. Thomas Parry, J.P., Cblwyn Bay, seconded by the Rev. Dr. Abel J. Parry, Rhyl, Sir Herbert Roberts was re- elected President, and the other officers were reappointed. In his annual report, the Secretary, Mr. Hugh Edwards (" GHiuwoo Penmaen "), Rhyl, said that Sir Herbert Roberts had presented to the As- ssodiaition thousands of pamphilefts during the year, and these had been distributed in all parts of the county. The Executive Committee hoped that the temperance examinations would be better supported, and that the gift of a medal by Mrs. Lloyd George, and the prizes offered by Miss Carter (Deganwy) to competitors from that district, would simulate others to back up the movement. This being the first meeting since the honour conferred upon Sir Herbert Roberts, the Executive felt sure the delegates as a body would join them in wishing Sir Herbert and Lady Roberts long life and happiness. (Ap- plause.) The honour had not changed Sir Herbert, who was as hearty and as homely in their simple meetings as ever he was. .(Applause.) AFTER THE BANDS OF HOPE. The Rev. T. Jones Humphreys (Coedpoeth) gave an address on the importance of providing for the young people when they left the Bands of Hope. The best men, he said, both as to character and abilitiy, should be chosen to con- duct the Bands of Hope, and it was necessary that they should be teetotallers. The ministers and deacons, if they were total abstainers, should visit the Bands of Hope, and if they were not total abstainers they 'were not worthy to be either ministers or deacons. (Aroplause.) A closer connection was desirable between the Free Church Councils and the Bands of Hope, so that representatives of one denomination might visit the Bands of Hope of the others. Lecturing of the young people was of little use. What was needed was the charm of persuasion and good example. (Applause.) He was glad to think tliat bands of hope had been formed in connection with the elementary schools in some parts of Denb1 ghshire, and hoped it would be possible to initiate instruction in connection with rilieooumy schools as to the injurious effect of alcohol on the human system. He would go even further, and permeate the national colleges of Wales with temperance' principles, (Ap- p la use) Mr. H. E. Pritchard (Abergele) suggested that the Colwyn Bay Disftrict Education Committee should be asked to establish Bands of Hope in connection with the elementary schools of that district. The President said the Executive Committee would act upon the suggestion, and would send the request to the local Education Committees throughout the country. (Hear, hear.) DRIVEN INTO THE PUBLIC-HOUSE. The Rev. Glyn Davies appealed, through the Gymanfa, to the religious communities of the county to place thejr schoolrooms at the dis- posal of young men's athletic clubs and fri,endly societies. Some time ago an athletic club in that county applied for the use of a school be- longing to a certain denomination, and the ap- plication was rejected, with the result that the young men were driven into the public-house. In the present condition of affairs young men wou'd have their football and cricket, and it was well, and the religions, communities should do all they could to purify the games and keep those who indulged in then from the tempta- tion of the drink traffic. There were in Den- bighshire 161 friendly societies, out of which 109 met in public-houses. In Carnarvonshire, however, there were only fifty-two friendly societies, of which only two met on licensed premises. These two were on the verge of be- ing induced to hold their meetings in school- rooms. The responsibility of refusing these facilities no follower of Christ should incur. (Applause.) At the afternoon meeting, the Rev. J. T. Jones, Rhyl, moved, and Mir. H. T. Davies, Dellibigh, seconded, a resolution most strongly protesting against the action of the House of Lords in throwing out the Licensing Bill, and hoping the Government would not let the matter rest, but that it would take steps, witho,ut hesi- tation, to carry out the will of the people. The Rev. J. Glyn Davies announced that the next Conference of the North Wales Temperance Association would be held at Holyhead on Octo- ber nth and 12th next, and that the Association intended to appoint a lecturer to teach the scientific aspect of the movement to Bands of Hope and schools. Dr. Carter (Deganwy) followed with an inte- resting address on the medical aspect of abstin- ence from alcohol. He submitted that there was now abundant evidence of the truth of the pro- position that the daily taking of even strictly moderate doses of alcohol shortened life, dimin- ished the strength, and increased the liability to sickness of mankind. THE OLDEST TEETOTALLER. The Rev. Benjamin Hughes (St. Asaph), the veteran, if not the father, of the Calvinistic Methodist ministry, who is ninety-three years of age, gave an interesting reminiscent address as to the religious aspect of the temperance movement. He said that he was probably the oldest teetotaller in the country, having signed the pledge and joined the temperance society at Holywell in 1836. ■LLANRWST LICENCES. The evening meeting was held at Zion Chapel, the chair being occupied by the Rev W. Cynwyd Williams. The speakers were the Rev. J. Glyn Davies, the Rev. Gwynfryn Jones, and Mrs. T. M. Jones, Colwyn Bay. Mr. J. Glyn Davies, in his address, expressed his pleasure at the good work done in Llanrwst by the closing of public houses, and he trusted that the Conference that day would act as a stimulus to temperance work, the success of which depended on the efforts put forward by those engaged. He appealed to those at Llan- rwst to go onward and not rest until the victory was complete. He urged temperance workers to rai-e a hand, one mighty hand, in the face of the Lords, and show that the country was stronger than even the House of Lords. He was pleased to think that we had now a Temperance Government. Referring to Band of Hope work, he said the work accomplished in that direction twenty wars ago was now yielding fruit. Now that they had the Government and the working man all in favour of temperance, where did the church of Christ stand? It was the custom of the church to be always in the forefront in such questions. Where was it now? That was a question the churches need look into, and he hoped that those who were lagging in the work, would rise on this occasion. He would be pleased to see the dav when grocers' licences wre extinguished, as well as the public houses, and he firmly held that church members should be abstainers, or, at any rate, every church officer. THE INATION, 'S WOMANHOOD. Mrs. T. M. Jones, Colwyn Bay, in a touching address, referred to the havoc caused through drink. Alcohol, the speaker said, was the Devil's path to man; J. but she felt that the liquor trade was making great inroads into the realm of womanhood. It was said that what the mothers of a country were, so would that ocjuntrv be. She hoped that Wales would never be accused of being a drunken country, caused by the drinking habits of women. She feared that they as temperance workers were working at the wrong end, and that they were endeavour- ing to remove the effects, whilst the cause was left to She appealed to the men to re- move the cause, and they coiuld rely upon the women section to look after the effects. 'The Rev. Gwynfryn Jones delivered an elo- quent address, which was frequently cheered. Otn the motion of the Rev. Cynwyd Williams, seconded by the Rev. R. Rowlands, votes of thanks were accorded the speakers.

The Chairman said the Bench were very glad to notice such a satisfactory reduction in drunk- enness in the county. This was confirmed by the report of the Cliief Constable. It showed that the police had been diligent in their duties. With regard to the licence of the Crown Vaults, the Bench had directed the clerk to serve notice upon the licensee to attend the adjourned Ses- sions on February 22nd. The two other licenses against which objections had been lodged would also be heard at the adjourned Sessions. He congratulated Superintendent Rees upon the work done by the police.

Evan Jones, Vice-Chairman, preSlldillillg, and oitlhers present were Messrs- J. Lloyd Jones, J.P., Cadiwaladr Roberts, David Williams, Benn T. Jones, Edmund LLoyd Powell, Richard Roberts, David Davies, Llugh Jones (Llan), Hugh Jones (Blaenau), W. J. Rowlands,, J. Lloyd Jones (juin.), E. T. Pritchard, T. J. Roberts, T. R. Davies, R. C. Jones; with the Clerk (Mr. R. O. Davies), Mr. Williams-Jones (Accountant), M;r. E. Lewis Evans (Works Manager), and Mir. George1 Davies (Sanitary Inspector). ILLNESS. A letter was read from Mr. J. Cadwaladr (Chairman) regretting that illness prevented him being present. Letters were also received from Councillors E. :1. Owen and Lewis Richards, thanking the Council for their sympathy with them in their prolonged illness. NEW FIRE .STATION. A letter was read from Mr. John Jones, Captain of the Fire Brigade, urging that the Council should reconsider the question of the proposed new fire station, in face of the fact that the Committee had decided to adopt the recommendation Off the Engineer to convert a portion of the Market Hall to that purpose. Mr. E. Lloyd Powell thought that it was an important matter, which should be referred to the Gas ai-id Water Committee for further con- sideration. Mir. C. Roberts .asked whether the writer of the letter had consulted the Works Manager be- fore writing the same. They had advertised with respect to the matter, and they would have to pay for that. Mr. R. C. Jones The Works Manager him- self has said that it is not the best place, but as a temporary station he considered it suit- able under the circumstances. iM/r. Ben T. Jones: Quite so, and we cannot do better 'than proceed with the work. Mr. David Davies Let us take our time if there is a danger of making a mistake, and I am prepared to second Mir. Powell that the matter be again referred to the Committee. Mr. C. Roberts He mentions in his letter the difficulty to go underneath the engine. How did he go in the old place? He must have entered somewhere about Cwinbowydd. (Laugh- ter.) Mr. David Williams We will not lose any- thing if we postpone the matter for a month. After .some further remarks, it was resolved to defer the question for a month, and that the following members should visit the place with the Engineer and repart:-M-e,ss,rs. David Wil- liams, Hugih Jones, ;R. C. Jones, J. Lloyd Jones, and Cadwaladr Roberts. A COMPLAINT. The Sub-Committee appointed to visit a cer- tain footpath at Tanygrisiau came to the con- clusion that the work done on this path had been done in error by the Works Manager when under the disadvar lage of being new to the dis- trict, and the Committee resolved to communi- cate with the Festiniog Railway Company in re- spect to .the work. Mr. Cadwaladr Roberts (warmly) I protest agallinsrt: ffny njame (being connected with this matter when it (mgihit not. I didn't propose that the workmen should be taken from there. The owner of the property called me the of Tanygrisiau. YOIU would expect something better from a man of his position in chapel, but I did remember that .the Monthly Meeting was about to be held at h.I:" chapel, and it was good for him to get rid of what troubled him before that. Mir. T. J. Roberts As a member of the Com- mittee, 'I don't think it is fair on Mr. Cad- waladr Roberts' part to accuse a man when he is not present to defend himself. Mr. C. Roberts I speak the truth, and I am not here representing a friend, but the rate- payers, and when I .have finished doing the latter I will resign. IM!I". T. J. Robei-ts: I think Mr. C. Roberts is quite out of order. )Mlr. C. Roberts: 1 admit that you are better educated than I am, but there is, a Chairman at this end of the table who will no doubt stop me if I am out of order. The Chairman 'I think this is a matter be- tween you and that person, Mr. Cadwaladr Roberts. Mr. T. J. Roberts The Committee were there for the [Council, ianid the person referred to. has property in the place, and he had a perfect right to be there. Mr. C. Roberts Yes, and he knew as soon as the Committee when we were going to the place. I will not take this feind of humbug. I will resign. Mr. E. T. Pritchard: Cannot we proceed with the business of the Council, Mr. Chair- man? The repotrt of the Committee was then adopted. THE BJJG REVOLVER. The Clerk read a letter from the 'Solicitor to the General Post Office, in which a claim for ^15 ins. xod. was made, being the deficit in respect to the telephone service, and stating that unless payment was forthcoming proceed- ings were to be ftaken against the Council. It was resolved to pay the amount. Mr. David Williams Is there any danger of this occurring again ? I think that we are to be blamed for not canvassing with respect to this matter, and unless something is done we will find ourselves in the isame difficulty this year again. The .Clerk said that he had done his utmost personally in the matter, and 25 had promised their names, but as they had to lose so much of their time at the Post Office they had given it up. [Mr. Richard Roberts: I think that the Com- mittee appointed to take this matter and other matters in hand should finish their work, or let us appoint a new committee. The Clerk I believe you had better appoint a new committee. Mr. Richard Roberts: I propose that. Mr. David Williams I have much pleasure in seconding, and what is the reason that we are neglected to such an extent? Small places like Bettws-y-Coed are far ahead to us. r The motion was passed unanimously, and the I rc^iowiing members were appointed as commit- ,tee:-M,e,ssirs. T. J. Roberts, B. T. Jones, Hugh Jones, David Davies, and J. Ll. Jones (jun.). Mir. C. Roberts: I .hope this committee will carry oiut the intentions of the old committee. Why cannot we have fairs here ? We do not try to have any iife to the place. We- only depend on the slates. Air. Richard Roberts: I am afraid if you will bring the fair to Biaenau that it will be far poorer than it is at LI an. (Laughter.) FOOTBALL IN NEWBOROUGH PARK. A letter was read from the Rev. John Owen, M.A., Bowydd, in which he complained of the" annoyance caused to the residents by the play- ing of football in the Newhoroug,h Park. He had no objection at all to the playing if it was carried on in a proper and decent manner. He urged that the Council .should give due con- sideration to the matter, as there was, apart from the annoyance caused, a great danger of the adjoining properties being damaged. M.r. :E. Lloyd Powell, said that somethinig ought to be done at once, and he believed that the police ought to exercise more of their in- fluence in the place. Mr. E. T. Pritehard If it is dangerous, as alleged in the letter, some immediate steps should [be taken to put a stop to it. ( Mr. David Davies: Cannot we approach them I in a Christian spirit and ask them to respect the place? It was resolved to call Inspector Roberts' at- tention to the place. SHEEP DIPPING. It was resolved ,by, a majority to leave on the table a communication from the GI.aslyn Coun- cil with respect to the new Order with regard to sheep dipping in March. IN DARKNESS. Mr. Richard Roberts complained of the un- satisfactory state of the light at LI an. The Clerk said 'that new, lamps would be fixed soon, as he had received a le-tter that day to that effect. It was suggested that the moon would meet the. defect for the next fortnight. Mr. David Williams The moon comes to the rescue. (Laughter.) THE UNEMPLOYED. A letter was read from the Clerk of the County Council with respect to those out of work in the district, and after some discussion it was resolved, on the motion of Mr. B. T. Jones, that the members should takei the matter in hand in their different wards and report to the Clerk. NURSING. In face of the Clerk's explanation, it was re- solved toi make another application to the Nurs- ing Association for the services of a special ourse, as several of the schools were still closed, owing to the prevalence of scarlet fever. CARNEGIE HERO FUND. A communication had been received in re- spect to the above fund, and it was resolved that the matter should be entrusted to. the Clerk.

Bettws-y-Coed District Council. WATER SUPPLY SCHEMES. FIRE APPLIANCES. The monthly meeting of this Council was held on. Friday, Mr. Parry (Bodiddon) presiding. Others present were Mr. John Hughes (vice- chairman), Dr. Prichard, Messrs. R. Rawlin- son, T. W. B. Corns, R. Parry, Henry Williams, J.P. Faichney, Henry Roberts; with the Clerk (Mr. R. R. Owen), and the Surveyor (iVir. R. D. Jones). WELCOME HOME. The Chairman, at Ihe outset of the. meeting, welcomed Dr. Prichard back after an absence of some months in South Africa, where he journeyed for a change and a rest. Mr. Henry Roberts supported, and hoped the doctor would not go away again. He hoped he had completely recovered, and was pleased to see him looking so well. Dr. Prichard thanked them for their remarks. The Finance Committee reported an available balance of ^200 13s. 4d. PLACES OF INTEREST. Mr. R. Parry (Pendyffrynj propoised that the Council erect sign-boards in Station-road to direct visiters to places of interest, and that the footpath to Elsi Lake should be improved. It was resolved that the sign-boards be put up, and that the footpath in question should also, receive attention. The former question was left in the hands of a committee composed of Mr. R. Parry, Mr. J. P. Faichney, and Mir. He.r..ry Roberts, and the footpath to the Highway Committee, who will also report as to. the ne. cessity for additional seati. WATER SUPPLY. Mr. Hugh Hughes, A.M.I.C.E., who is assist- ing the Engineer, Mr. Thomas Griffith, with the plans of the new water supply, appeared before the Council, with a report on Llyn y Goeden and Llyn Byohan, situate on Glyn Llugwy land, Capel Curig. Regarding the former, Mr. Hughes stated that a reservoir could be made fifteen acres in ex- tent, and a gathering ground capable of yield- iing 160.704 gallons per day. A reservoir could also be made at Dolgam plantation, with a high dam, and a gathering ground capable of a supply very considerably more than the present needs of the village. A ieservoir could also be made at Llyn Bychan, 474 acres in extent, with a gathering ground capable of yielding 69,440 gallons per day, together with a small supple- mentary reservoir at Dolgam plantation to make up the differences existing between the yield of Llyn Bychan and water shed, and the 80,000 gallons required for the village per day. Llyn Bychan and Llyn y Goeden are extremely free from building, cultivated land, and every other source of pollution. Chances of pollution are, however, higher at Dolgam, owing to the pres- ence of richer pasture land and cultivated fields. The pipe line would be 2,640 yards of 4-inch pipes, and the estimated cost would be £I,gOO, exclusive of landowners' and occupiers' charges. Mir. Corns thought they would need a larger pipe than a 4-inch. Mr. Parry asked if the population of the vil- lage should increase would they have to look elsewhere, for an extra supply The Surveyor: You could raise Llyn Bycham. a few feet, which would produce 5°.000 gallons per day. Mr. Henry Roberts was of opinion that, pro- vided the terms of the owners were satisfactory, it would be the salvation of the village for all times. The Chairman said that he would suggest that the pipes should be 5-inch. This suggestion was agreed to, and it was re- solved that the report be sent to the owner of the land (Mr. Rees), to ascertain his terms. FIRE ENGINE. Mir. Fiaichnsy proposed that some mode of Are extinguisher for the village be provided, ani an escape. He thought it a very desirable thing, seeing there were ao many valuable build- ings in the village. Mr. Corns thought it a matter more for the Insurance Companies. The Clerk explained that there was no com- pulsion on the Companies, but that they always contributed. It was resolved that the Clerk write and make inquiries regarding the price of a manual and escape.
