----BARRY AND CADOXTONI LOCAL…
BARRY AND CADOXTON LOCAL BOARD. PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE. A meeting of the Public Works Committee of the Local Board wa" held at the Board Office on Tuesday evening. Mr. Alderman Meggit-t pre- sided. and there were present Mr. William Thomas ("Barry"), Dr. O'Donnell. Mr. Joshua Barstow, Mr. .T. C. Pardoe (surveyor), and Mr. J. A. Hughes (clerk). DEPUTATION TO THE COMMITTEE, Messrs. Jenkins (chairman), L. Rees. and L. Jones (secretary") appeared aa a deputation £ rom the Gadlis Cottage Company. Aberdare, to objec. to an apportionment of private improvements costs for their property in Lombard-slrecst and Recent-street. Barry Dock.—Before the deputa- tion were admitted the f^eyor explained the case. The company had had some curbing and channelling done by their contractor, Mr. Hird, which had had afterwards to be done by the Board. Work also which the Board had done had been paid for by the company to their contractor, and the company now disputed the apportionment sent in by the Board.-The de- putation said the work had been done to the satis- faction of the Board's surveyor, and they had paid their contractor accordingly. The kerbmg and channelling re-laid by the Board had been damaged by the Board's road-roller and, therefore, it was the Board's duty to put it right. They claimed that a sum of Z20 7s. 9d. should be taken off their apportionment coaba.-The Clerk said the Coni- mittee had no power now to alter the apportion- ment. It was made in January. 1891, and if the company wished to object they should have done so before the end of three months in accordance with the bye-laws of the Board.—The deputation retired whilst the committee discussed the matter. and, on being recalled they were informed by the Chairman that the committee could not alter the sum lecallv due ito the Board for principal and interest. If they did so they had no means of re- covering the sum from the other householders, and. therefore, they must ask the Compony to pay the whole amount. APPLICATION'. OR THE ROAD ROLLER. An application was read from Mr. Morris, clerk of the Dinas Powis Highway Board, asking rhether the Barry Local Board would lend out leir steam rollers—The matter was deferred to ie next meeting. THE PUBLIC CHINALS. A letter was read from Mr. Forrest in reply to the application of the Board for a B ite opposite the l&yal Hotel, to place one of the urinals. He thought the occupiers of the Royal Hotel might object to its being placed so near the hotel and suggested that it should be placed nearer the lane. -Alderman Meggitb said that at the Standing Joint Committee the application of the Board for a site behind the Barry Dock Police-station was read, and the matter was left to the Surveyor to report upon. MISCELLANEOUS. An application was read from Mr Sydenham, builder. for permission to erect some scaffolding in Thompson-street-The Surveyor was deputed to see Mr Sydenham in the rnatter.-It was decided to give the employes of the Surveyor's staff and workmen a holiday the day after Christmas. The Surveyor said that on going through tho private improvement plans he found be should be able to get them ready in two months. i lfilS ALLEGED gSB-LETTlxG. A letter was read from Mr. George Thomas, chairman of the committee, stating his reason for being unable to attend, and, further, expressing an opinion that with reference to the letter of Mr. Bees, secretarv to the Trades' Council, there had been no sub-letting of contracts by purchasing the iron-work at Cardiff. If that principle held good, it would apply to the purchase of the other mate- rials, such as glass, ironmongery, &c.-Another letter was read from Mr. Rees, stating that the contractor had acted contrary to Clause 3 in having iron-work done at Cardiff instead of locally, and the firm of Messrs. Lite, of the Atlas Foundry were not regarded as fair employers.- The Chairman couldn't see how the agreement between the Board and the Trades' Council had been broken. THE NEXT MEETING. It was decided that the next meeting of the Committee should be held on January 3.

CORRESPONDENCE. n THE JUBILEE HALL, RHOOSE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR. SIR,-Will you kindly permit me to correct mis- ata-tetnents in your correspondent li Ilhoosite," letter in last week's issue. The site on which the Jubilee Hall and Colporteur's Cottage stands is a portion of Mr. F. L. Davies' estate, and was given to Mr. John Cory for that purpose by the lato esteemed Mr. Davies, Blaengwawr, father of the present owner, and not, as averred, by Mr. William Jenkin-, Rhoose. Again, the old cottage, where now the Colportage Station stands, was utilised for religious services, Sunday School meetings and anniversary gather- ings exclusively, and not at all for secular concerts and meetings of popular amusements, as intimated in the above-mentioned letter, for more than forty years, under the patronage and support of the late Mr. and Mrs. M. Morgan, Rhoose, in combined con- nection with the Baptist Church. Llancarvan. and the Calvinistic Methodist Church, Panmark—Mr. Morgan being a member of the former, and Mrs. t, Morgan a member of the latter, respective ly.— Yours &e., VERITAS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SOUTH WALES STAR." SIR,—A letter appeared in last week's issue of your paper in which the writer complains of Mr. John Cory not allowing the use of the Jubilee- hall, Rhoose, for other purposes besides prayer meetings and religious services, and said that everyone thought, whan Mr. Cory proposed build- ing the hall, that thry would be able to have pops., &c., and that, under this impression, Mr. William Jenkins gave the land which the hall and house is built on. Allow me to say the writer misin- formed tho readers of your valuable paper by saying Mr. Jenkins gave the land. I have autho- rity to aay it was not Mr. Jenkins, but Mr. Lewis Davies, Ferndale, that gave the land and I think Mr. Cory has a perfect right to use the hall for the purpose for which he built it-namely, the moral and spiritual welfare of the people and the glory of God, as was stated by him at the opening service. Will you kindly insert this in your valued paper, jind oblige, yours truly, H. HARDING. 14th December, 1892. —————<>————— THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS. HELP THE POOR ASSISTANTS. TO THB EDITOR OF THE SOUTH "WALES STAR. SIR,—I should like to ask through your valuable papar if any effort is being-, or will b°,, made, to get tho tradesmen of Barry and Cadoxton to close their establishments on the 27th inst. instead of Wednes- day afternoon, the 28th, in consequence of Christ- mas Day falling on a Sunday ? Several of the leading tradasmen in Cardiff have signified their intention of closing on the 27th. Cannot the tradesmen of Barry and Cadoxton follow suit ? and confer a benefit on the assistants of the district, some of whom live so far from home, and would go home if they had tho Tuesday. Otherwise they will have to stay here over the Christmas holidavs. -Yours &c., ONE WHO LIVES 100 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. Doc. 14th, 1892.

IGRAND BAZAAR AT BARRY.
I GRAND BAZAAR AT BARRY. On Wednesday and Thursday a most successful sale of work was held at the Presbyterian-hall, Barry. Extensive preparations have been in pro- gress for some little time. and the hall on Wednes- day afternoon. when the bazaar was opened, presented a first-rate appearance. What was undoubtedly the gem of the bazaar was the splendid museum of curiosities lent by Captain Davies (dockmaster), Captain Jones, Captain Williams, Captain Evans, Mr. Bishop, Mr. Lewis (the Bank). Mrs. Munro, Mrs. Silverthorne, Mrs. Munro. Mr. Moon, Mr. Inch, &c. It included beautiful pieces of Oriental ware vases, Chinese carving, Indian brass-work, Japanese needlework, swords used at the battles of Waterloo and Wor- cester, and bayonets used in the Indian Mutiny. An interesting piece of plaster work was exhibited from the ruins of Pompeii, and after the lapse of so many centuries the portion of a painting re- mained as clear and well coloured as when it was first painted. Captain Jones, whose collection was exceedingly large and valuable, also exhibited bull and cow whales' teeth, elegantly fitted up as a can- delebra and inkstand. Captain Davies, another large exhibitor, showed some unique Indian cabinets, most beautifully fitted up. Mr. Morris's collection included some splendid choral specimens, whilst Mr. Inch's contribution of a magnificent pieces of brass-work was much admired. Great interest was attached to the exhibits from Rome, Ciiina, India, &c., and the habiliments used by divers were viewed with much interest and curiosity. An ostrich and emu's egg looked gigantic when placed side by side with that of a lizard, rmd an ornithological student would have found in rhe specimens of the taxidermist's skill many into st- ing subjects for study. It almost seems a pity hat after such a splendid collection has been ^ct together, it should be again dispersed, and wo should be glad to hear that the owners had generously decided to give the whole towards the formation of a good rausevfhi for Barry. Captain Jones made a splendid curator, and explained to the visitors the various curiosities in a very lucid manner. Mr. Dyer also exhibited a collection of curiosities, which was catalogued in a very amus- ing manner. People of an artistic turn of mind were rather taken aback when A view of the Rhine" disclosed to view a few pieces of apple rind, whilst literary people were just a little dis- gusted when A learned writer" turned out to be a small piece of rafty bacon. The good old Star stood for studies in astronomy, and we only hope astronomers were not disappointed. About 50 other such ingenious devices were resorted to by Mr. Dyer, and all sorts of things brought into service. His labours were amply recompensed by the laughter of those to whom he explained the different things. Some real live dwarfs were on view. and it is needless to say that they were well patronised. Bonn's diorama, which according to the notice stuck un was now better than ever, and rapidly acquiring a world-wide reputation, was open to the public in the evenings, and, as usual, added no small amount to the proceeds of the bazaar. Mr. A. L. Bonn acted as manager, Mr. n. F. Illingworth as acting- manager, and Mr. T. E. P. Hugh as stage-manager. The views shown were really good, the moonlight scenes and carnivals showing well, altogether forming an artistic treat, and, it is needless to state the show added much to the (uiccr.*? of the :<1. L: cf works. The views included :-A collection of dioramic scenery, illustrating a trip round ths World—visits to the principal cities of JOurop?. Asia, Africa, and America; i,, added, York j Minster, showing the Minster by day r.nd 11, n t, cl by night, the Cuth, dral illuminated for evening service, and many splendid and in- teresting views with effective dioramic ehs-ngee. Next to Bonn's diorama IVHK a stall wdllMlml with a variety of knitted and sown apparel for babies.au i many other things dear to the feminine soul. Mra. Captain Davies and Mrs. Wrn. Thomas took charge. and by their indefatigable exertions managed to do a good business. The next stall was laden with goods of a similar character, under the able management of Mrs. Munro and Mrs. Thosnaa (Sydenham-street). A well arranged flower stall laden with seasonable Chrysnnfcheinvim blooms, was under tho Rr.perrisiou of Mis» Lougher. The well-laden'refreahmeut stall was well patronised by many poople whose needs were promptly looked after by Mrs. J. W. Dyar. Mr*. Captain Jones, and Mrs. W. R. Hopkins. A stall next laden with art antimAcassars, fancy satchella. Libsrcy wall hang- ing-. fzo. was managed by "Mrs. Lewis (National and Provincial Bank), and Mrs. Captain Lewis. In thst centre was a stall laden with toys and fancy articles was managed by Mrs. Llewellyn. Captain Davies (dockmaster) opened the proceed- ings in the unavoidable absence of Mr. David Lewis, who had previously promised to attend. Amongst those present were the Rev. and Mrs. Christmas Lewis, Misa Evans, Rev. Graham Payn, Rev. J. Stowell. M.A., Mrs. Alderman Meggitt. and ?.Ii>s Murrell, Mr. Branuell. Mr. and Mrs.\mu Miss William Thomas, Mrs. Waddoil. Mrs. and Dr. Powell, Miss Davies, and'Miss Price (Pen- mark). Mr. and Mrs. Gould, &c. During-the after- noon and evening large numbers of people visited the hall, and a programme of music was rendered by tho Harry String Band, under the conductor- ship of Mr. Rees the Barry Male Voice Party, conductor, Mr. D. Farr; and a song by Mr. Silver thor. On Thursday the proceedings wcr.1 opened by Mr. Rodcliffe. Penarth. Taken altogether, the mnseum and bazaar combined to form oao of the best entertainments as yet provided, and those who have attended have felt more than recom- pensed for doing so by the enjoyment they have had. The proceeds, after defraying expenses, will be devoted to the funds of the Presbyterian Chnroh. EXTENSION OF TIME. Owing to the immense success of the sale of work and the entertainments they will be con- tinued to-day (Friday) from 6 p.m., and Saturday 3 and 6 p.m.
