LLANDUDNO.
LLANDUDNO. THE MAY QUEEN.-O,n Saturday afternoon the election of the young girl to be crowned as Queen of the May at Llandudno took place in the Llamdudno Pier Pavilion. The electoral body comprised six boys and six girls from each of the schools of the town, and their choice fell upon Miss Esme Chandler, aged 11, a pupil of the Craigydon Council School. This was the fourth election carried out in this manner, and it is umeresting to note that each year a differeinit school has had the honour of providing a May Queen from its pupils. In the first year a girl from the Church Walks Church School was selected, then one from the Dyffryn-road Coun- cil School, and then one from the Lloyd-street Council School. There will be the usual features in connection: with the Llandudno Festival, and in connection with the sports in the recreation ground after the crowning cere- mony a novel form of horse race will take place. Instead of handicapping the horses by weaght, they will be handicapped by height. Horses 0If 15 hands or over will start from scratch on the two-mile course, and for every two inches below 15 hands the other animals may be they will get a furlong start. CARD PLAYING ON THE WEST SHORE. -At Monday's Police Court before Mr. Knee- shaw and other Magistrates, five young Lads named R. O. Evans, Robert Stallard, Ellis Davies, Albert Roberts and Joseph Foulkes ranging in age from 16 to 18 years, were charged with gaming on the West Shore by playing t: banker" on the latb. March. All the lads pleaded guilty. The Deputy-Chief Comsitajble tJold the Magistrates that they had numerous complaints about card playing for money, and especially so on Sunday. They were a source of great annoyance to the golfers. He hoped this would be a warniiig to the great number of Llandudno boys who did this kind of thing. The Chairman severely admonished the defend- ants for their conduct, and told them to warn other La-ds of the consequences if they were brought up. The defendants would be let off on payment of costs by each of them. THEFT OF NEWS PAPE RS.-Drink was the cause of a young man, 25 years of age, named James Davies, of Baron Hill, Pydew, appear- ing before the Llandudno magistrates on Man- day on a charge of stealing three local news- papers from outside the shop of Mr. Thompson, Lower Mostyn-street. P.C. Stephen Evans gave evidence of being on the other side of the road, and he noticed the defendant pick up three newspapers from the stall outside Mr. Thomp- son's shop, put them in his pocket, and walk away. He followed him and brought him back to the shop and charged him with theft, and he replied I did not steal them iruentionally. I was going to pay for them." Defendant pleaded guilty, remarking that he was heavy in drink at the time, and this was corroborated by the police. The magistrates decided to bind the prisoner over for six months under the First Offenders' Act, and ordered him to pay the costs. DRUNKENNESS.—At the Llandudno Police Court, on Mojiday, David Wynne, Back Caro- line-street, was fined 5 s. and costs for beiing drunk and disorderly, and Richard Griffiths, Augusta-sitreet, was ordered to pay 2s. 6d. and costs for being drunk in charge off a horse and carriage. FUTURE PUNISHMEN-T.The series of sertmons by the Rev. William Phillips, M.A., (co-pastor with the Rev. C. T.

The Corinthians are holders of the Duncan Cup, and are in the final for it this season.

Talycafn Mart.
Talycafn Mart. EASTER SHOW AND SALE. Considerable activity centred at the Mart on Monday, on the occasion of the great annual Easter show and sale of fat stock. With their customary enterprise, Messrs. Robert & Rogers Jones oflered {,b in cash prizes to be competed for by supporters of the Talycafn sales, and sel- dom perhaps, if ever, have the judges found so great a difficulty in deciding their awards. Es- pecially was this the case with the yearlings, a class that showed excellent quality throughout. There were other departments in the spacious yard which reflected the greatest credit on the breeders, notably the crossbred Easter lambs which were good in point of size and quality' The collection of calves and porket pigs were of the highest possible standard, one of the former realising £ 7. To return to the fat cattle section, mention should be made of the grand beast ex- hibited by Mr. Price Hughes, Glasfryn, Glan Conway, a bull which turned the scale at 18 cwt., and realised {2.1. With an exhibition of such quality, it is "little wonder that buyers attend, not only from the Coast and inland towns of North Wales, but from the middle of Lancashire, the Potteries, and other centres, a positive proof that the Talycafn Mart is favourably looked upon by both English and Welsh butchers. The judges on Monday were:—Cattle: Mr. William Jones, The Hand, Llanrwst, and Mr. John Jones, of Messrs. Robert Jones & Son, Portdinorwic. Sheep, calves, and pigs: Mr. J. M. Roberts, Trefnant, and Mr. Moses Jones, Llanfairfechan. The following were the prize winners, with prices obtained Best butcher's bullock, over two years old I and 2, William Davies.

....... -- - Topan Bach, Glan…
Topan Bach, Glan Conway. To the Editor of The Weekly Nexvs. cir,-In your issue of March 11th, 1910, the fo!lowing is reported :— Topan Bach.—At the meeting of the Rural District Council on Friday, the High- way Surveyor again reported that the pond (( caused by the floods in a field abutting Topan Bach still remained, and although the landowner, Mr. Jones Mortimer, had been informed of it, nothing had been done. The Clerk stated that if anything happened the liability would be upon the landowner." Would you very kindly allow me to correct this. In January last, owing to the smallness of the culvert under the road at Topan Bach, or because of an obstruction in the culvert, the water was unable to go through it, consequently it went over the road, and washed away five yards of Mr. Jones Mortimer's fence at the other side. The road is none the worse. The Rural District Council say there is no liability on Mr. Jones Mortimer or the Highway Authority to repair the damage. Mr. Jones Mortimer has, however, fenced off his land again. Had the culvert under the road been large enough, or had there been no obstruction in the culvert. no damage would have been done.—I am, &c., D. MAC. NICOLL.

Vn ol Dr. Gill y rnae Dyngarwch yn wallgof," a rhaid rhodai heibio ar fyrder drefn caroad o welLa'r byd. Cwynai'r Dr. am yr hen aanseroeddr-yr amseroeda y chwynidi cymdeuthias o'i gwan a'i gwael, heb un galon yn cydymdeimlo. Yn; yr amser cyn yr artifical civilisation yr oead natux ei hun, trwy ddeddf survival of the fittest," yn d if a'r anghymwys. Wedi hyny, daefth ddeddfau gwladol 1 Laud cum bob peth, hyd yn ad ddwyn daifad. Ond heddyw, er gofid ir Dr., gofelir am y gyan ei feddwl, a chedsda rhyw adyngarwr gwallgof garni'r Lleadr a'r llofrudd, hydi onid yw enw^n cymdeithas yn hadu, a thyiu bron lei ei. gwienith. Mor bell yr a dynion oddi wrth y bregelth ar y rnynddd, a pheiled ydvTn o ganad y Gwr fwytaodd gyda phublicanod, ac a waredodd ladron. Oa hon yw credo gwyddtoniaeth, gwareder ni rhagddi. W W A dyddiau ein duwiau cenedlaethol drosodd. Dednydotiodd y Gwyxldelod Ddydd Gwyl Badrig i gyneu taa eu hysbryd ceaedlaethol-rhywl),oth aii i ryfel gymdeithasol. Cymro oedd Padrig Sant, a Gwyddel oedd Dowi Sant. Dyoa'r hanes tebycaf i'r gwir. Dywaid gwyr yr achau, ddiarfod i Ddewi hanu o'r Goideiiaid, sef t6 o Gyttnry ddaeth i'r Ynys hon yn oil traed yr Iberiaid, ar ol y bobl fyahain freucldwydiol a gwallt ddu fu'n byw yn eim bogfau. Daeith y Goideiiaid o flaen y Brythoniaid, a chroesasant i'r Iwerddon, a gelwir eu cartrefi yn y wlad hon yn gytiau Gwyddelod." Brj-thon oedd Padrig, lmp unwaed a'r trydydd tô. Os oes i ni deulu, hwy oedd ein henafiaid. Gadawodd Dewi'r Iwerddon. A gofiodd ei frodyr am dano, gan gysegru eu lleoedd addoli i'w goffawdwriaeth, ms gwn. Cofiodd y Cymry am Badrig Sant, a rh<xidasant ami lanierch yn y wlad ar ei enw. Codrwyd Sarrr idJdo i gadw'r mor a foddiodd Gantre r Gwaelod. Uwch y Sarn hono y canai adar Rhianon, yn nedwyddwch cwmni pen yr hen diywysog Cymredg a laddwyd yn yr Iwerddon. Ceir am bell Lam a chareg yn cadw'r cof am ei enw. Digon atgas i'r ddwy genedl ddwyn oddi ar eu gily<id eu pen Saint. Yn ol Gol. y Cymoru aim Fawrtih, ddedthr- iaid i'n gwlad ni yw detfaid. Y mynachod a'u dygasant drosodd. Gwyddem o'r blaen, mai hwy ddygasant wyddau yma, ac a'u rhoddasamt diain nawdd Sant Mihamgel. Sonir llawex am rfoch, ychen, a meirch yn y Mabinogion; orjd methaf gofio gweled dim am y ddafad. Ndd yw s6n na distawrwydd y Mabanogion yni dystiol- aeth gref ar y naill ochr na'r llan. Nid yw eu s6n hwy am lew, yn profi i'r llew fod yn hen drigianydd o'r ynys hon felly, nid a eu dis- tawrwydd am y ddaiad ym mhell i brofi yn ei chylch hithau. Y Rhufedtuiwr ddaeth a'r march yma, a'r Rhufeiniwr a ddysgodd ein tada/u gynt i drefnu ffordd i'w draed a'r meni. Os nad oedd y- ddefaid, beth offrymai'r Derwydd dan y deTw? A ninnau'n geraedl mor grefyddol, an- hawdd meddwl am grefydd heb ddefaid, beth bynag am t ymTU hen heb grefydd. Trodd yr etholiad y byrddau yn Swydd Fflint. Trowyd pobl y cadleiriau i'r comin, a daetth pobl y oornon Fr cadeiriau. O'r blaen y Rhyddfryd- wyr oedd' yn llyw-xiraethu, a'r Ceidwadwyr yn edlaw iddynt eu pechodau a brychni eu croen. C^aabeth y Ceidwadwyr oedd caucus meeting y Rhyddfrydwyr i drefnu eu dewisiadau, ffieidd- iasant hwnw hyd at ei felltiithio a'i regi. Daeth eu hawr hwythau, a phan, ddaeth hono, caras- ant eu holl gasbethau daeith caucus meet- ing yn anwyl, a dewis eu plaid eu hunain yn beth teg. Pechasant bob pechod a gondemn- lasant, peohasant hwy tan chwienthin. Lotri yw'n gwleidyddiaeth; raid yw'n holl brotestio ond ein dull duwiol o ragrithio, ac yrnddangos yn oalest ar gonglau heolydd fel y credo dyndon ein bod honol wahanol i'r hyn ydym. Cardota am rhyw friwsion yr oedd y Rhyddfrydwyr, ni chawsant ddim. Bu'r ,Ceidwadwyr yn eedoio wrth eu drysau hwy, ilti dhawsanit ddim; a chint hwythau'n awr dalu'r pwyttih yn ol i'w hen feisrtxi. Ni feiajf. y Ceidwadwyr am en hym- ddygiad, hon yw anfer yr oes. Rihoddaf iddynt gyngor buddiiol, lkf peddio rhagrithio yng nghondemnio'r pethau hy-n, pan eu harferir gan eraall, oherwydd pan gant hwythau'r cyfle arfer- ant y castiau hyn yn nodedig o ddeheuig. Etho.1 eu cyfeillion wnaeth Rhyddfrydwvr Arfon fel Ceidiwiadwyr Fflinjt. Protestiai'r Ceid- wadwyr yn ddolefus, a thaer geisdent rhyw gongl >^ng ngwasanaeth y llong Addysg.
