FISHCUARD.
FISHCUARD. Rugby Football Club.—A meeting of the sup- porters of Rugby Football will be held this (Thursday) evening at the Commercial Hotel, and the proceedings will commence at 8.30. Local Visitors to the Exhibition.—A number of residents of Fishguard, Gobdwick, and Letterston availed themselves of the G.W. Rail- way Company's cheap excursion on Thursday evening last to Paddington to visit the "White City." Public Lighting.—The public lighting of the principal streets in the town and the Windy Hill district for the approachng winter months will. it is believed, be an improvement upon the system which has hitherto existed. Already the town lamps have been lighted during the past week; but it is evident more light is an absolute necessity in some of the localities to prevent accidents. Scholastic Success.—We are pleased to record that Miss Bessie Harries, daughter of Mr. F. J. Harries, grocer, etc., Hamilton Street, Fish- guard. has successfully passed an examination entitling her to an entrance scholarship of the value of £4 per annum at the County Inter- mediate School, Fishguard. The scholarship holds good for as long as she remains at the school. Mrs. Martel.—This lady, who is prominently I identified with the Suffragette Movement, and who was repeatedly heard speaking publicly in Fishguard during the recent election, has evidently not forgotten a few of her lady friends in Fishguard. In a kindly worded letter received from her last week. Mrs. Martel states she is very busily engaged in the New- castle-on-Tyne bye-election, advocating the Suffragette cause. The "Cristal.The old sea-going boat "The Cristal." which is on the beach at Lower Tuwn and being repaired has had a couple of masts and a bow-sprit placed. The High Tide.—Owing to the adverse winds for tidal effects the high tide predicted at the end of last week was not of an exceptional character. The Sewerage Works.—Mr. P. M. Crosthwaite, M.I.C.E., a Government Board Inspector, will hold an inquiry at the Town Hall, Fishguard, ilext Thursday into the application of the Rural District Council for permission to borrow £ 1,200 in respect of the new sewerage scheme for West Street and Windy Hill. Accident.—On Saturday the son of Mr. Roch, of Lower Town, fell off the Quay into the har- bour. and ,being unable to swim, would have inevitably been drowned had not his father pluckily jumped in to his rescue, and brought him safely ashore. Aquatic Success.—The silver medal presen- ted by Mr. Richardson, Caerdegan House, Fish- guard, to the winner of the 250 yards swim- ming race at the recent Fishguard Bay Regatta, has been awarded Mr. J. M. Symmons, of the Sailor's Return." Illness of a Councillor.—Numerous friends in Fishguard and District will regret to learn that Councillor Cuthbert Thomas has been seriously indisposed. We were, however, in- formed yesterday (Wednesday) that the patient was progressing favourably towards recovery. Occasional License.—On Monday, at an Occa- sional Court, held at the Town Hall, Fish- guard. before Messrs. T. G. Bennett and B. G. Llewellin, a license was granted to Miss Rees, of the Commercial Hotel, to sell at the Tem- perance Hall on Wednesday, the occasion being a banquet connected with a meeting of the Masonic Order. Important Rating Question.—We are author- ised to state that the overseers iitlr. D. Rees and Capt. Thomas) are seriously considering the advisability of abolishing the compound- ing system of rate collection, which at present obtains within the urban area. This scheme will arouse considerable attention in the town.
'COODWICK.
COODWICK. Steam Tug Repairs.—The steam tug "Pel- merston," of the G. W. Railway Company, and which has been employed in the harbour for some time past was beached a few days ..u for general repairs. After she has been thor- oughly overhauled she will again be placed for duty in the harbour. In tn, meantime the Company have secured the services of the steam screw tug "Gazelle," of Swansea. American Mails.—On Monday afternoon there tarrived by the London Express, due at the Harbour Station about 4.20, a large consign- ment of mails from Plymouth, where they had been landed from Canada by one of the American liners the previous day. The letter bags were labelled for Belfast, and left by the ss St. Andrew. Hockey Club.—The members of the newly- formed Goodwick Hockey Club held a practice match on the sands Saturday afternoon last. The game was greatly enjoyed by the partici- pants. It is believed that the committee of the club are arranging fixtures for the winter season. On Tuesday evening a meeting was convened to make further arrangements for the carrying on of the club.—Another practice match will take place at Goodwick next Satur- day, and all intending members of the club should communicate with Mr. Downey, of Swansea House, Goodwick, who is acting as hon. secretary pro. tem. Illness of the Vicar.—Many residents 01 Goodwick and di.rict will learn with regret that the. Rev. E. Lincoln Lewis (vic-ar). has been seriously indisposed during the past week. The rev. gentleman, on returning home from Switzerland, where he had spent a very plea- sant holiday, contracted a severe chill ;but we are pleased to state that he is now recovering from its effects., He was, however, unable to undertake the services at St. Peters on Sunday. The curate, the Rev. J. Jenkins. being away on holidays, assistance was requisitioned, and the officiating clergy were the Rev. Mr. Evans (brother of the vicar of Pontfaen), and the Rev. Mr. Jenkins, vicar of Kilgerran, and brother of the curate). Visit of the s.s Suffolk.—On Sunday morning the Houlder liner, the s.s. Suffolk, outward bound from Liverpool for Australian pons, called off the harbour, and set down her pilot. Dredging for Coal.—The dredger, s.s Porteur has been constantly used during the past week for dredging coal from the bed of the harbour. Considerable quantities have been removed. Enormous Traffic.-We are informed, that the passengers who were dealt with at the Harbuur Station during the months of June. July and August, numbered about 7,000: and that the cargo and parcels traffic between Eng- land, Wales, and Ireland on the G.W. Railway's system shows an enormous increase according to the recently compiled statistics.' is Irish Passengers for the Exhibition.—The exhibition in London has attracted a con- siderable number of Irish visitors, who have favoured the Rosslare and Fishguard route. It is stated that the turbine steamer which ar- rived on Friday from Rosslare had carried about 500 passengers from various districts in the Emerald Isle, and they proceeded to Padd- ington by special excursion train. The Eucharist Visitors.—The Eucharist Con- gress proceedings in London during the past week was visited by large numbers of the Catholic fraternity in Ireland, and who jour- neyed to the Metropolis via the Fishguard route. On Monday afternoon the Paddington Boat Express was patronised by many Roman Catholic clergy and their friends who returned to Ireland by the s.s St. Andrew. The s.s St. Patrick.—The G. W. Railway Company's turbine steamer "St. Patrick" is at present laying in the harbour for the cleaning of her boilers. The s.s St. Andrew.—The latest addition to the G. W. Railway's fleet of turbine vessels has resumed her position on the station between Fishguard and Rosslare, and is being com- manded by Capt. Gerity. The vessel carried nearly 2,000 passengers to Rosslare on Monday afternoon. Mr. W. T. Gray.—After a short holiday at Weymouth, Mr. W. T. Gray. the Quay Super- intendent and Stationmaster, returned to his residence at the Quay Road, Goodwick, at the ) latter end of last week, and he was present at the services held in St. Peters Church on Sunday last. He is stated to have much im- proved in health, but is not yet sufficiently re- covered to enable him to recommence his duties at the station and quay. His friends wish him a speedily and complete recovery. G. W. Railway General Manager.—Mr. Inglis, the general manager of the G. W. Railway Company, who paid a visit to the Harbour and Station last week, returned to Paddington af- ter having enjoyed a yachting cruise with Lord Winterstobe, one of the directors. The steam yacht conveyed them to the Harbour. Lord Winterstobe journeyed per train to Yat- ton. English Baptist Church.—The pulpit at the services held in the Reading Room in connec- tion with the English Baptists (Bethesda) )Church on Sunday last, was occupied by Mr. John Bowen, of Plaverfordwest, who preached eloquent discourses. The congregations were very large. Occasional Police Courts.—We are informed through a reliable source that recently certain local members of the magistracy paid a visit to Goodwick for the purpose of ascertaining whether there was a suitable building avail- able for the holding of Occasional Police Courts for the district. It is understood that the justices, after inspecting the Glendower Hall, at the rear of the Glendower Hotel, have decided to recommend the Standing Joint Committee at its meeting, to be held early next month, to adopt the hall for the propoFed court. If the recommendation meets with the approval of the Committee it is believed that the police cases emanating from Goodwick and its immediate district will be dealt with there, and that the new system will come into operation next month. The New Ocean Quay.—Within the next week there is every probability the general public will witness the work in connection with the New Ocean Quay being proceeded with brislvly in order to prepare it for the berthing of liners, and dealing with the passenger a,to cargo vessels. Already unusual activity is ob- served amongst the G. W. Railway Company's employees of a building section of the Con- struction Department; and a new spacious locomotive shed hal been erected near the Ocean Quay. This structure will shortly be completed and ready for the "housing" of the G. W. Railway Company's locomotives, and the fitters, etc. departments, and it is stated that the old sheds, etc.. in the centre of Good- wick .and near the Goodwick Station, are to be demolished at an early date. A's was inti- mated in the columns of the "County Guard- ian" some weeks ago, a booking office, to- gether with customs house, and telegraph de- partments are to be provided on the Quay, and to all intents and purposes there will be an Ocean Quay Station. We understand that the timber for this purpose has arrived in sections from Swindon for speedy erection. Other minor, yet extensive arrangements have been made in the supplying of the necessary railway books, and stationery, etc., for the new station, and there is every indication that an important movement is afoot between the Railway Com- pany a steamship company for the calling of a liner.
TREVINE.
TREVINE. Mr. J. W. Evans writes:—Re the finding of a bottle at Aberfelin containing the "Mess- age from the Sea," your correspondent was asking is it a hoax. Kindly allow me to in- form him that it is no hoax finding same, as it was picked up by Master Gwilym Evans, opened by the boy's mother and Mr. Lewis-, of Cranog, and as we could not clearly make out all on the piece of cardboard. It was sent to the editor of the 'South Wales Daily News" by myself, trusting it would be the means of finding out the lost ship. I hope this much of explanation will be allowed to appear, as it will give satisfaction to inquisitive persons."— We do not intend to suggest that the finding" of the bottle was a hoax, but that the message itself misht be regarded with some reserve.— Ed. "P.C.G." On Friday week services were held at the above place in recognition of the appointment of Mr. J. Llewellyn Davies, of Aberystwyth Theological College to the pastorate of the C.M. Church (at Trevine). The new pastor of Tower Hill, Fishguard, commenced by reading and prayer. Then Air. Llewis, Tyllwyd, was voted to the chair. He gave a history of the Church at Trevine, mentioned some noted men that had arisen there, especially the late Rev. T. Richards (Richards, Abergwaun), who towered among his brethren like Snowdon among the hills of Wales. Several ministers were present, and took part in the meeting, as well as some of the deacons. In the evening two eloquent sermons were delivered by the Revs. Teify Davies( brother of the new minister), Maesteg. and Bowen, Pontrhydfendigaid to a crowded congregation. Mr. Davies has commenced his ministry under favourable cireumstanccs, .and we hope that his advent to Trevine will prove a blessing to the Church and neighbourhood.

DINAS CROSS.
DINAS CROSS. Measles.—It is reported that an outbreak of measles has occurred in this district. On Holiday.—Mr. and Mrs. Dewi Harries and family left on Tuesday for a brief holi- day at Cardiff and Newport, and were expected to return home yesterday (Wednesday). Police Duties.—P.C. Jones, of Goodwick, will commence his duties in this district at the end of this month. Anniversary Meetings.—At a meeting of the Church at Tabor on Sunday night it was de- cided to hold the anniversary services on November 10th and 11th. The Revs Gomer Lewis. D.D., of Swansea, and Lea Davies, of Brynaman, were the preachers selected. The Late Schoolmaster.—Mr. Davies, the late headmaster at the Council Schools, has taken his final leave of Dinas. On Friday a sale of his household effects were held. and on the following day lie returned to Pontycymmer, where he is engaged in a large school. Many friends wish him every success in his new sphere of scholastic duties. Superannuation Question.—Considerable .in- dignation has been aroused locally, as in other parts of the county, by the action of the Local Government Board auditor in prohibiting fur- ther payment of superannuation to officers of the late School Boards, whose services were dispensed with after the passage of the pre- sent Education Act. We are not sufficiently conversant with the facts to enable us to ex- press an outside opinion but we have always been under the impression that pensions were payable to all public servants whose occupa- tions are destroyed by Act of Parliament. The whole subject is to be investigated. Alleged Theft at the Glan Hotel.—Yesterday (Wednesday), at an Occasional Court held at the Town Hall, Fishguard, before Mr. T. G. Bennett, J.P., two tramping labourers named William Clarke (24). and George Turner (34) were charged with stealing 4s. and a bowl from the till at the Glan Hotel, Dinas Cross, the property of Mr. Dewi Harries, J.P.—Maria Wil- cox, a servant in the employ of Mr. Dewi Harries, stated that she was left in charge of the hotel and bar during the absence of Mr. and Mrs. Harries, and on the previous after- noon the prisoners visited the bar where they secured some drinks. Prisoners remained sev- eral hours. She had occasion to leave the bar for a few minutes and left the money in the bowl. When she returned she discovered that the bowl and money were missing, where- upo nshe gave information to her next door neighbour and to Mr. Bennett, J.P., the post master. The prisoners were observed at the rear of the house, where, after their departure the bowl was found empty and laying near some empty barrels. Prisoners disappeared and information was telegraphed by Mr. Ben- nett to P.S. Morgan, who, about 10.30 in the evening found the prisoners sheltering for the night in a shed between Nevern and New- port. Prisoners were remanded in custody to the Newport Petty Sessions to be held on the 24th inst.
NEWPORT. !
NEWPORT. Revision Court.—Mr. Ivor Bowen, barrister- at-law, sat as the revising barrister -it New- port on Thursday last, to deal with the vari- ous voters' lists. Postal Work.—The newly-appointed postman commenced duties on Monday last, in succes- sion to Mr. Wm. Davies, who retired last week after being on the sick list. A Big C.itch.-It is not often we hear re- corded a big catch of the destructive rodents, but Mr. Stephen Lewis, of the Morfa Farm, on Tuesday night last succeeded in securing 22 in one trap. Returned Home.—The Mayor and Mayoress (Captain and Mrs. James) returned home at the latter end of last week from their holidays at Llandrindod Wells. Obituary.—The death has taken place of Ann Morgan, who was 46 years of age, an who. during many years was m the mrloy of Dr. Havard. She had been in i't health for a considerable time. The renie;.is of the de- ceased were interred on Saturday last, when the Rev. D. J .Evans officiated rt ilic residence of the mother of the deceased, wie-'e the fust portion of the burial service wis read, a:;d also at the gravside. Intermediate Scholars.—On T.i3-:rlay last ').< Intermediate School at Card'gan wa- r;* oi-rred after the holidays. About a dozen pupils from Newport have transfer vd I1 e*r tlll'\)n 1c tne school. Accident.—About 11 r,'(-! )ck on I'rTTlay r.v-Til- ing last Melbourne Harries, son of Mrs. Rich- ard Lloyd. Penrallt, Newport, met with a ser ious accident whilst in the service, it is stated, of Mr. John Harries, of Sycamore House, Pont- vaen. He was endeavouring to mount a young horse, which after rearing itself fell upon him near the 'Holly Bush" public house, Cwm- gwaun. He sustained a fracturerd leg, and was conveyed back to Sycamore House by Mr. Stinchcombe, gamekeeper to Mr. E. D. Jones, J.P., of Pentour, Fishguard, and where he was attended by Dr. O'Donnell, Fishguard. Ebenezer.—The Rev. J. J. Morris officiated at the services, held at Ebenezer on Sunday last. There were large congregations who were de- lighted to see that he had sufficiently recov- ered from his severe illness to enable him to resume duties. Still Missing.—Some short time ago a lady who was a member of a party driving from Fishguard to Newport via the Gwaun Valley discovered on her arriving at her destination that she had lost a valuable shawl. When the information of the loss was made known a young man cycled through the valley, and eventually finding a female who had possess- ion of the article rewarded her. He subse- quently tied the shawl in a parcel which he attached to his machine and returned to New- port but, alas, when he arrived the parcel y was missing, and its whereabouts have not yet been ascertained. Bad for the Harvest.—In the Llanllavver dis- trict several fields of hay have not been gath- ered owing to the severe heavy rains. Police Promotion.—We are informed that P.C. Morgan, who has been located at Newport for some time past, ha3 been promoted to the rank of sergeant, and will be transferred to Haverfordwest on the 30th inst. He is a pain- staking officer, and in the course of his servi- tude at Newport has distinguished himself in several public cases and investigations, and his promotion is regarded as a deserving recog- nition of his conduct and astuteness as a public servant. He will be succeeded by P.C. Davies, of Tenby.

ST. DAVIDS.
ST. DAVIDS. Street Lamps.—A meeting will be held in the Reading Room on Friday, Sept. 18th, to appoint a new committee who will have the manage- ment of lighting the street lamps for the coming winter. The Revising Barriste, Ivor Bowen, Esq., held his court at the Grove Hotel on Saturday. The attendance was good, and very little alteration was made in the lists on either side. Rocket Apparatus.—Capt. Freeman, with Lieut. Vaughan, the newly-appointed Inspector held an exercise when the Brigade were put through their drill very carefully in detail, and at the close the officers expressed their satis- faction at the manner in which jt had been carried out and complimented them on their smartness. Street Lights' Concert.—The musical enter- tainment, given last Friday evening in the Town Hall, which had been got up by Mrs. Baker, The Bungalow, was quite a success in every way. We were pleased to see such a large audience present. Every one present ap- peared to have thoroughly enjoyed themsehts. Th first part was taken up by the Dutcii Troupe; the artistes were all dressed as typi- cal Dutchwomen and Dutchmen. No expense had been spared to make the representations a success. Miss Duncan and Miss Baker sang their solos with very great taste, and Mr. Evelyn Baker acted and sang his parts splen- didly. The item in the first. part, which greatly delighted the audience was the duet, 'Two little chicks." sung by Mrs. Baker and her son, Mr. Hugh Baker. In the second part the chief items that brought down the house were "The Gendarmes," by Mr. Baker, and his s'.n, Mr. Hugh Baker, who were both dressed up as city policemen. The reference in the song to local places, street, lamps, and local resi- dents. greatly amused the audience. They were loudly encored. The Rev. George Wil- liams created roars of laughter in his repre- sentation of a man. from Hayscastle Cross going to Swansea to marry his sweetheart. In response to an encore he impersonated three competitors in an eisteddfod reciting "The charge of the Light Brigade." Here again his clever mimicry evoked peals of laughter. Mr. Hugh Baker sang Mr. Jock Mackie" in High- land costume; he also gave a Highland dance between cross sticks, which was well received. Mr. Hugh Baker's acting quite captivated the audience. In the nursery rhymes the different parts were exceedingly well done by the di'ff erent artistes, the representations were well got up; evidently no trouble had been spared to make it a success. The accompanist for the evening was Mr. Herbert C. Morris, B.A., F.R.C.O. It is very gratifying to state that the net proceeds is JE9. All persons interested in the welfare of our little city, must feel deeply indebted to the kindness of Mr. and Mrs. Baker and family, St. Justinian, who are always so willing to help everything for the good of the community.
FISHGUARD COUNTY SCHOOL.
FISHGUARD COUNTY SCHOOL. A meeting of the committee of Governors of the Fishguard Intermediate School convened for the purposes of considering the question of the scholarships, bursaries, and augmentations, was held at the School on Wednesday last, when there were present the Rev. W. Evans, Rev. J. W. Maurice, Mr. T. Lewis, the Director of Education (Mr. H. E. H. James), Mr. O. Gledhill (headmaster), and the Clerk (Mr. D. W. Lewis). The whole question of the scholarships and the free places, under the new regulations, were considered with the assistance of the Director of Education and the Headmaster, and the following resolutions were passed :—"That the Clerk inform the Headmasters of the Ele- mentary Schools of the County School district that a supplementary competitive examination for scholarships will be held at the Fishguard County School on Saturday, September 12th, at 10 a.m., and such scholarships would entitle the successful candidates to free tuition dnr- during their continuance at the school. That internal scholarships be limited to pupils not receiving free tuition; that a vote of thanks be accorded the Director for his attendance at the meeting; and that the committee stand ad- journed so as to receive the result of next Saturday's examination when the whole quest- ion will be further dealt with." The adjourned meeting took place at the school on Monday last, when the Rev. W. Evans presided. There were also present the Rev. J. W. Mauricfe, Mr. T. Lewis, the Head- master (Mr. O. Gledhill), and the Clerk (Mr. D. W. Lewis). The minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed. The question of the entrance scholarships was dealt with, and the list. already published, of the eight qualified candidates and which was forwarded by the Director, was received. The Clerk stated that of the scholarships awarded, Catherine John of the Llanwnda Council School, and Benjamin Higgon, of Henry's Mote Council School, were not accept- ing them. The Headmaster presented the following list of 13 candidates who sat for the examination last Saturday:—E. J. Richards (Dinas), 158; M. L. Thomas (Dinas) 151; Bessie Harries (Fish- guard). 150; T. J. Thomas (Fishguard), 138; Edward Davies, 125; V. Davies, 124; H. Havard, 117g B. Hastings, 11521 1%1. Jones, 109g; T. Miles, 2 2 1022; H. Blank, 102; and J. George and Gwen 2 Evans, 100 each. The four first-named candi- dates were successful and awarded the scholar- ships. After careful consideration it was resolved, on the motion of Mr. T. Lewis, seconded by the Rev. J. W. Maurice, that 9 entrance schol- arships be awarded, viz.: To the five on the Director's list who were accepting, and to the four highest on the Headmaster's list, the first three on the Director's list to be regarded as County Scholarships. The Headmaster recommended the renewal of last year's entrance scholarship to Sarah A. Nicholas, and that internal scholarships he awarded Eliza Rees Jenkins, May Burnand, Alan Gledhill, Phoebe Evans, and WTillie D. Owen; and that in the event of May Burnand being accepted as a probationer her scholarship should go to Connie Burnand. On the proposition of Mr. T. Lewis, seconded by the Rev. W. Evans, it was resolved to con- firm the Headmaster's recommendations. It was resolved to award eight bursaries and one augmentation, and that a fifth of the Technical Grant amount, about F,16, be trans ferred to the Scholarship's Account.
