On Monday a serious accident occurred to Mr William Williams, plumber, &c., Well- street, whilst engaged with the windows of the new Post Office. Standing against the wall uf the building, in Prior-street, was a ladder, at the top of which, some 25 feet from the ground, Mr Williams was busy at work, when a. horse and cart came out of the smithy nearly opposite. The horse, apparently, became sumewhat restive, and before anyone was Me of the fact, had backed the cart into the ladder and upset it, precipitating Mr Williams with terrible force on to a heap of bricks piled up against the base of the building. When picked up by his fellow workmen, Mr Williams was bleeding profusely from a large Wound on the forehead, and was suffering lui/tsii; ely trom injuries to his arm and side. Indeed, it is miraculous that the fall was not attended wi;h a far more serious result. Dr Andersoii was immediately summoned, and had the injured man conveyed home. Mr Williams is suffering from slight concussion and injuries to the thigh and ribs. He also sbffered a great deal from shock, but he is progressing s favourably as can be expected.
. Primrose League Entertainment.
Primrose League Entertain- ment. The annual gathering this year took the form of a most enjoyable tea and entertain- ment en Thursday, the 5th inst. The Habitation is fortunate in having as dame president the Hon Mrs Blezard, and a* rulicj; councillor Mr G II Denton; and the Habitation is to be congratulated in having the honorary services of Misa M M Jenkins, w' lose duties in this respect de- serve the highest commendation. The tea was reaily surspttloas and ap- preciated by all. The ladies attending to, the guests included Mrs T J Rouw, Mrs Powell (Llanfair), Mrs E Tegid Owen, Mrs R 0 Jones, Miss M M Jenkins, Miss Edwards (Church Gates), Miss Jones (Heatbfieiu), Miss A M Williams, and Miss Hughes (Aiwrog House). In the evening there was aa excellent entertainment, the programme of which w&t pleasingly opened with a pianoforte Sflo by Miss Jenkins, of Bryncelyn. Following ipon this- J OfltDpania, tb? celeb. atoz: London society ertainer, entertained the audience to a masterly 1 performance, which gained Isim tie en- thusiastic applause of an appreciative audience. Danciog followed, and this, near the 4 bewitching hour ofmídnigbt; brought to a close one of the most successful and enjoy- able events in connection with the Ruthin Habitation. Dance music, on the piano, was skilfully played by Miss Jenkins, Bryn- eelyr. Mrs L* Tegid Owen, and MissOwea, The Schools, Llanfair. filmr G H Denton, as ruling councillor, proposed the heartiest vote of thanks to the ladies of the Primsose League for pro- viding such an excellent tea. which he felt sure one and all had enjoyed (applause). He explained the reason for holding the gathering in that form, dwelt upon the satisfactory work the League was perform- ing in = he cioanty and borough, referred to the splendid imperial work the Government had recently done in strengthening the empire and Colonies, and exhorted the members of the League to be ready so that when the dissolution came they might render efficient service in successfully returning Mr Kenyon again as the member for the boroughs. It might be hard work, but they must not be afraid of hard work, which would bring about Mr K^^on's successful return. In excluding he an- nounced telegram# apoli^8inS 'or absence from Mr Kenyon and M Lloyd of Rhaggatt «

Ruthin Hockey Club.1
Ruthin Hockey Club. The Ladies XI of the above club played a match against the Rntbin County School on Wednesday last on the School ground. From the bully-off the School pressed then visitors and soon opened their score Throughout the game the School attacked and were only once called npon to defond their own goal, and ultimately won by seven goals to nil. The game altogether was very scrappy, no combination being shewn by the forwards of either side. This of course can only be remedied by practice, and no doubt the losers will be able to give their opponents a better game in the return fixture, when they have had a few more, practices. Miss M Ellison, M Hodgkinson, D W Roberts and A E Jones played well for the School and hit very oleanly and neatly. For the losers Mra T 0 Jones at centre forward played a very hard game, and Misses G Roberts and Whittington at back also worked very hard.—We think it only fair to the losing side to say that the referee, Mr C C Mott, was very lenient with the School forwards, who were fre- quent offenders against the offside rule. -COR.
Ruthin Volunteers. -
Ruthin Volunteers. Annual Distribution of Prizes by Mrs. Swetenham, Plas Newydd. F.jjrlonpfl of the interest taken in the Volunteer movement was given on Wed- nesday evening, when there was a "crowded house" at the Drill Hall, Ruthin, at the annual distribution of prizes to members of the" G" (Ruthin) Company. The interior of the hall was prettily decorated by members of the com- pany under the supervision of Colour-Sergt C A Williams. Prominent amongst the deoorations was the display of elegant silver trophies which the Company have been presented with, including two hand- some coronation cups from the late Mrs Naylor Leyland, of Nantclwyd, and another from the Officers of the 1st Lancashire Royal Engineers Volunteers as well as a silver bugle. The chair was taken by Capt J Jenkins. who was supported by Lieut T J Rouw, Mrs Swetenham, Plas Xewydd, who had consented to present the prizes; Miss Jenkins, Bryncelyn; and Mrs Edward Jenkins. The Chairman thanked the company for having assembled in such large numbers. They met that evening chiefly for the purpose of distributing the prizes amongst the successful members £ of the company, and on their behalf ho expressed publicly their thanks for the very kind manner in which their appeal towards the prize fund had been liberally respcndcd to (applause). It was most encouraging to and such interest manifest in the Volunteer movement, and they were very thankful indeed for it (hear, hear). Dwelling upon the importance of volunteering he pointed out the advantages derived from a course of military training; an advantage which every young man ought to have (hear, hear). It would be a great drawback to the interests of the country if ever con- scription was enforced, and it behoved them all to use their utmost endeavours to prevent any such state of affairs being experienced in England (applause). Re- ferring to their last camp he thought it I was a most enjoyable one, and in all probability next year's camp would be elsewhere than Salisbury Plain (applause). "I think," continued Captain Jenkins, we have been very fortunate in having asked Mrs Swetenham here to-night to give away the prizes (applause). Since she has lived in Ruthin she has done many great services, and there is no doubt that she is determined, so long as she does reside in the town, to help on all good work (applause). She and her husband, Captain Swetenham, who is an Army man himself, must take more or less interest in the Volunteers, u he had been an Adjutant of the Volunteers. I have now great pleasure I in asking Mrs Swetenham to distribute the prizes (applause). Mrs Swetenham then distributed the prizes in a graceful manner, and congratu- lated the winners, individually, upon their success. A full list of the prize winners has already been published in these columns, Following the distribution, Capt Jenkins, in appropriate terms on behalf of the Com- pany, tendered Mrs Swetenham their heartiest thanks for the service she had rendered them (applause). Lieut Rouw rose to second the proposal, and in the course of his remarks said he was going to appeal to the men connected with the Battalion to do their utmost in support of the volunteer movement, by appealing to the young man and shewing them the necessity of becoming a volunteer. All those who read the newspapers, and the advice given by such men as Lord Roberts, as to the need of every man in the United Kingdom bearing arms, would see that the time had arisen when the yoath of the country aid those capable of bearing arms should come forward, otherwise the time would come when compulsory service would be inevitable, because we were only small tod compared with European nations. There were a number of young men in Rothin capable of making good volunteers (hear, hear). In order to shew the appreciation of some people, with the Captain's per- mission, he had to announce that a gentle- man was prepared to offer a cup next year to be shot for outright upon certain conditions (applause). It would not be a challenge cup, but certain conditions (which he explained) would be laid down for the competition, and the men would have to go down to the firing point and fire without any assistance at all (applause). They-had in the Company one of the finest shots in the Battalion, but they wanted to see who wonld be the finest shot on the field of battle; who can go down to the firing point, and under army oooditioas, fire at, perhaps, a disappearing target (hear, near). The gentleman who was presenting the cup was Mr Pinnington of Eyarth (loud applause). The Company had more friends this year than they had ever bad before, and he hoped by next year appreciation of this kindness would $)A by an increased .aer ui*»olunteers, U-JJ. every it perso should be proud to wear tue King's unjwm (applause). It was with the K-reatest piasure that he seconded the of f.anks to Mrs Swetenham (applause). Mrs Swetenham, who wai> received* with loud applause, said she felt highly honoc."ed in being asked to present the priz«,8 (applause). The occasion took her back tu the old days to the regiment which her I husband belonged, and which she was associated with for seven years after her marriage. Previous to that she had also been associated with another regiment. She hoped the Company would be attended with success, and that the members would continue wiping all those prizes (applause). PHYSICAL CULTURE CLASS. Captain Jenkins said he had been asked by Sero-^Ip-«i Taylor to announce his intentio of for ming a physical culture and training class-^during the winter months. .p The greatest oredit was due to their worthy Sergeant-Instructor for such an arrangement, and he would be very pleased to have the attendance at the classes of every member of the Company and also any other young men from the town (applause). All those who did join would undoubtedly benefit from it (applause). The idea is certainly a splendid one, and all persons. who must be over 16 years of ago, who intend joining must send in their names to Sergt-Inst Taylor by Tuesday, next. DRILL PRIZES.

The entertainment was a new feature and proved a unique success. The programme was efficiently arranged by Colour-Sergt C A Williams. As secretary to the Company he deserves the highest commendation for the energetic manner in which he performs the duties to the extreme satisfaction ot all. The first item was a song by Mr John Williams, poulterer, and his tine te¡..or voice won the unstinted plz'.illba of the audience. An equally enthusiastic reception was accorded Mr Tom Williams for his excellent rendering of Long Live the King." The accompaniments were skilfully executed (on the piano kindly lent by Sergt-Instructor H Taylor) by Mr W Christmas Jones. One of the features of the evening was the splendid exhibition of heavy indian-club swinging by Sergt-Instructor H Taylor; the musical accompaniments to which were pleasingly played by the performer's 8 year old daughter, Lilian. Mr D Parry, Well- street, amused the audience with his "stump speech, and Professor Lukos, the celebrated handcuff king. was enthusiastic- ally applauded for a masterly conjuring performance, whiiathis wife sang a humorous II character song. Selections were also given on a phonograph kindly lent by Mr W H H liodgkison, Park Place Hotel. I Capt Jenkins heartily thanked all who had so willingly and gratuitously given their services in making the evening such an enjoyable one. Especially were taeir thanks due to Colour-Sergt Williams and Sergt-Instructor Taylor (applause). The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing to excellent music supplied by the Volunteer Band; the dance being opened by Capt Jeukins aud Mrs Sweten- ham.

St. Asaph Board of Guardians.
St. Asaph Board of Guardians. FRIDAY.—Present, Mr Howes Roberta (presiding), Mrs Robert Jones, Miss Owen Jones, Messrs S Perks, J.P., W Conwy Bell, J.P., Edwin Morgan, J.P., G F Gunner, Hugh Edwards, Win. Morris, Edward Williams, J Francis Jones, Wm. Jones, J.P., John Pierce, R E Griffiths, T U Jones, Hugh Williams, W H Hughes, W Williams, W S Roberts, John Williams, Mark J Cross, J Eilis Jones, Robert Davies, J R Jones, Owen Rees, John Williama, D Tiebearne, Robert Parry, with the Clerk (Mr Grimsley), the Master (Mr Robert Jones), and other officials. THE ROLL CALL. According to the Master's report, the number of inmates was 121, as compared with 122 a year ago. Vagrants relieved were 209, as compared with 238. OVER-CROWDED TRAMP WARD. The Master, in reply to Mr John Roberts, said that, strictly speaking, they only had accommodation in the casual wards for 17, but they had had as many as 27 in one night, some of whom had been very glad to be allowed to lie on the floor and even eit up. A GIFT. The Master reported the receipt of a :pc,.s. the use of the inmates, from the Rev R 0 Williams, Rosehill, St Asaph. THE BETTWS GUARDIANS. At the last meeting the absence of certain Guardians for some time past was rather severely commented upon. The Chairman expressed his pleasure at the re-appearance of the Bettws Guardians, concerning whom, he said, they had lately been getting very anxious. A fortnight ago they were informed that one of them was ill, but on that day's shewing he did not appear to have had a day's illnees in his life (laughter). SCHOOL ATTENDANCE. Mr John Williams, on behalf of the visiting committee, reported that they had e inquired into the question of the work- house children's school attendance record. They found that the whole of the children bad been withdrawn from the school on January 4th and 13th, May 4th, and A,"gut 31st. They recommended that the master be instructed to see that for the Future the children were never abseut from I the school, except in the case of illness or with the consent of the Board previously obtained. He moved the adoption of the report. Mr J Ellis Jones seconded. Mr Gunner: Is this supposed to be a vote of cenadre upon the master ? The Chairman No. Mr Gunner It looks to me like a storm I in a teapot The Chairman assured Mr Gunner that it was not personal. The St Asaph School Committee complained about the attendance, and he was sorry to say their complaint was justified. If there was any I reskctiou upon anybody it was upon the whole Board of Guardians. I 4ir Gunner According to the statistics they have been absent two half days and I two whole days. Mr John Williams said the reason for these absences was that the children had I been to treats, excursions, &c. Mr Gunner Still I think it a storm in a teapot. Compared with the aveiag-31 attendance of other children, he was sure! that the workhouse children's attendance was much higher. Mr Morgan But the figures before us shew that the workhouse children are 213 attendances short. The recommendation of the visiting committee was i d )ptied. THE BREAKING OF STONES. 1. Mr Bell said that at the last meeting of the St Asaph (Fliut) Rural District Council it was reported by the surveyor that the stones turned out of the tramp wards were much too large. He thought the only way out of the difficulty was to obtain a hand screen whereby It-incb stones would go through and the larger stcnes thus separated would be returned to the trarrp wards to be broken again. He proposed that a small committee be ap- pointed to deal with the matter. No doubt they would be able to obtain a good second hand screen cheap. Mr J Ellis Jones seconded the motion. Mr Edward Williams suggested that a riddle as used in the quarries would surely do for the purpose. This would only cost 15d. Mr Bell's motion was agreed to. THE INFIRMARY HEATING APPARATUS. Mr Perka said he should like to point out that considerable difficulty was ex- perienced in connection with the heating apparatus in the New Infirmary, and he proposed that before they accepted the architect's report the apparatus should be tested in the presence of the visiting, I committee. I Mr W 8 Roberts seconded. Mr Ellis Jones I think you might I show faith in the architect in this matter. Mr Edward Williams: They are not always so particular. Mr Perks said he had no intention of casting any reflection upon anyone. The motion was agreed to. Mr Trehearne saul he thought the time had arrived for expressing their indebted- ness to the Master for his services in connection with the infirmary. He also thought that the state of the footpath from the Workhouse to St Asaph should be dealt with as soon as possible. It had subsided in places on account of the newly laid sewer. The Master said that he believed that the heating apparatus would work alright, I and he had tested it uuder various con- ditions. RECOGNITION OF THE MASTER'S SERVICES. Mr Trehearne gave notice of motion that the finance committee be requested to take into'Consideration the services of the Master, who, for the past two years, bad acted as clerk of the works in connection I with the infirmary. It was understood at the time that his services would be recog- nised. ThW Cha:lrw,'a!i We have generally taken substantial notice of his se. vices in I the past. ;'1, t THE FURNISHING OF THE INFIRMARY. The Chairman said that in answer to advertisements several tenders had been received for the furnishing of the infirmary. Mr J Ellis Jones proposed that the committee, appointed some time ago to deal with this matter of furnishing, be re- appointed and meet next Thursday week to inspect the furniture and report to the Board thereon. Mr Edwin Morgan seconded. Mr W H Hughes said that he considered it was absurd to continually defer this matter in the way the Board were doing (hear, hear). Eventually it was agreed to defer the matter as suggested. A FORMAL OPENING OF THE INFIRMARY. Mr Trehearne asked if it was intended to li-v a formal opening of the infirmary, and ,uuld the visiting committee consider it ? The Chairman It might be considered. Mr W H Hughes I suggest that the Chairman give a banquet that day (laughter and hear, hear). The Chairman That's a very good suggestion. The matter then dropped.

Mr Tom Barger, assisted bv his talented family, kept a largeaudience in roars of laughter last evening (Thursday) at the Drill Hall. There is no need to enlarge upon the excellent character of the entertainment, as Mr Tom Barger is so well-known in this district. He is a most talented artiste, and his ventroloquial sketches and marvellous rapid changes from one character to another drpw forth well merited encores and applause. Messrs Barger and Miss Barger also took their full share of the programme, and rendered songs and dancos in an exceptionally clever manner.

0 Mr. Clement Edwards at Denbigh. Mr Clement Edwards, the Liberal candidate for the boroughs, has visited Denbigh this week, and on Tuesday night he was present at a largely attended and most successful smoking concert at the Liberal Club. Mr Clement Edwards, in the course of a short address, said that there was cause for the greatest encouragement to find that they had at that clu h such a large body of young men. He did nob think it was possible, in the memory of the oldest inhabitant, that there had been a time fraught with such tremendous possibility for social and politioal work of the highest order. He mentioned thac the Free Trade issue, identified with the names of Cobden, Bright, and Villier, was now in the I balance. The great question of religious equality was associated with many revered names. The great education question, which they thought was put in satisfactory lines, was again in the balance, and also the great question as to whether the British flag is to be sullied with the revival of slavery. That they thought was abolished with great sacrifices some 60 years ago. All these great questions and others besides were again thrown into the scales and had to be fought out in the coming fight. It therefore placed upon the shoulders of young men a tremendous responsibility, and it was to him person- ally, as a young man, a matter of the most tremendous encouragement that they had in the Denbigh club, as they had in the olub at Wrexham a great body of young men who were taking politics for the first time. He hoped they would recognise, not only the responsibilities, but the magnifi- cent opportunities there were, especially for young Welshmen, to take part in the most momentous struggle that it had been the lot of Wales to engage in within the memory of man. He hoped, in conclusion, I that those kind of gatherings would taku place freauently during the coming winter, and he hoped also that. he may again have the pleasure of being present (loud applause).
Charge Against A Llandegla…
Charge Against A Llandegla Publican. At the Ruthin Petty Sessions on Monday, before Capt Cole (presiding), Mr George Blezard, Mr G H Denton, Mr Lowis Morgan, Mr Stanley Weyman and Dr J Medwyn Hughes. Edward Rogers, Crown Inn, Llandegla, near Mold, was charged with permitting drunken- ness on his premises on 21)th September. Richard Williams, Penybryn. Llandegla, a young man whose condition caused the licensee to be summoned, pleadod guilty of being drunk on the highway, having fallen down as he was leaving the inn. and he was fined Is and costs. Mr Marston prosecuted for the police, and Mr A 0 Evans, Denbigh and Ruthin, repre- sented the licensee. The case lasted a considerable time, and the evidence most conflicting. Police-constable Howell Jones stated that the above defendant left the house in a helpless state of drunken- ness and fell down in the road. Mr A 0 Evans admitted the man was drunk, but elicited from the officer that he was a respectable and fairly quiet and well conducted youcg man. The young man Williams, in evidence, admitted that his memory was- very hazy, and that he did not remember much about the facts, but asserted that he thought he was in the Crown Inn all day long, until the publican placed him in the cowhouse at night, but in reply to the bench said he did not know what he was doing there all day, but he was drinking some- times. The defendant swore that the man Williams was not in the house between 11 and 7 o'clock, having been in for Imlf-an-hour in the morning, and when hb came in at 7 at night he was perfectly sober, and after having 2 glasses beer left the house. He saw him in again about quarter to ten, when he called for a glass, but defendant rofused to serve him. Joseph Williams, formerly for 12 years in the lgt Life Guards, recollected Williams coming into the Crown just before 10, perfectly quiet, and sat down. Me caíJied for a glass of beer, but th 'andlord refused te serve him. The magistrates retired, and after a lengthy deliberation the Chairman said -1, We have weighed this case with vtry great care, and have decided upon acquittal." The charge was thus dismissed,
