EXCURSION TICKETS BETWEEN…
EXCURSION TICKETS BETWEEN THE HILL DISTRICTS AND BARRY. THE Barry Chamber of Trade has just introduced another valuable subject for consideration, that of the desirability of affording facilities to holiday-seekers to come to Barry from the hill districts, and the members could not have done better than appoint their president, Mr D. T. Alexander, to wait upon the general managers of the Barry and Taff Vale Railways urging them to grant the facili- ties asked for. It is generally admitted that Barry possesses unique advantages and attractions as a watering-place, and it only remains for the railway com- panies to facilitate passenger traffic between the coal districts and the sea- coast to make Barry one of the most popular resorts in South Wales. We are convinced that in the hands of Mr Alexander the question will receive due consideration, and it is to be hoped that before the summer months arrive the two railway companies concerned will afford 'a system of cheap tickets which will enable the people of Pontypridd, the Rhondda, and other places, to make ex- cursions to Barry at rates as advantageous as are afforded to other places along the coast. DECOYING SERVANT GIRLS AT BARRY. SEVERAL cases of attempt to decoy innocent servant girls in the Barry dis- trict have just come under notice, one case last week being a most flagrant one, and one in which the infamous perpetra- tor richly deserves to be publicly lashed. Information of a reliable character has reached us to the effect that for some time a respectable girl, of about 17 years of age, has been in the service of a gentleman at Barry Dock, but being anxious to return to her home and friends in England, arrangements were made that she should leave the Barry district on Saturday last. The fact, however, seems to have come to the knowledge of the keeper of a house of ill-fame in one of the lower streets of the neighbourhood, and this depraved fellow had the audacity to actually go to the house of the gentle- man referred to, and, entering into conversation with the girl, try to persuade her to leave her service, and promised to provide her with a "respect- able home." The man gave the girl the address of the house in which he lived, and the master, being informed of the circumstances, took the girl to the house, and found that not only was the place a den of immorality, but that more than one member of the family were, at the time of his visit, utterly incapable through intoxication. The gentleman, therefore, interested himself still further in the girl's behalf, and saw that she was safely despatched to her parents on Saturday morning. The incident is one which we venture to expose as a warning. to other young women who may be in danger of being enveigled and decoyed in a similar manner. There are numerous places of the kind in the district, and young women cannot be too careful as to the nature of the companionship they form and the associations they enter into. This particularly applies to servant girls who may be strangers to the district, and it is not too much, we think, to ask those whto are responsible for the employment of these young women to see that they are not drawn into temptation and led astray by the base and corrupting machinations of designing scoundrels like the man we have alluded to.

< f In the course of some com- ( ments made in the columns ( BARRY AND of a contemporary last week THE PROTECTION with reference to the pro- OF SHIPPING. vision by the Government of adequate protection of the mercantile marine of the country, it was stated that Cardiff, Swansea, and Barry cannot help but cordially endorse the resolution passed by the Chamber of Shipping of the United Kingdom at its annual meeting, which asserted it to be the paramount duty of the Government of the day to take ample measures for the due protection of British shipping," in order that there may be no inter- ruption of the supply of food and of the raw materials for the industries on which the exis- tence of the people depends. No class of men are likely to realise the necessity of a. powerful Navy quite so vividly as shipowners, unless it be the people at large of thriving ports like the above, which exist entirely by mercantile marine. Once let that come insecure, or too perilous to be carried on at a. profit, and our glory will suddenly decline. With due respect to the Penarth Local Board, we THE PENARTH SUR- cannot help thinking that VEYORSHIP. the action of the majority on Monday last was utterly unworthy of them. Dis. passionately they should have viewed the merits of the respective applicants for the vacant sur- veyorship, and the fact of a gentleman being in the employ of the Windsor estate authorities should not have debarred him from the favour- able consideration of the members. The Windsor estate seems to be a veritable bugbear to some of the members, but the interests of the estate and those of the ratepayers are identical and no one acquainted with Lord Windsor or his advisers would for an instant suggest they would wish to take undue advantage of the town. Lord Windsor's generous gifts of money and land amply corroborate this, an l yet the members of the Board run to an absurd extremity and refuse to elect Mr Birkenhead simply because of his long and intimate pro- fessional connection with Penarth as one of the local engineers of the Windsor estate. The clashing of dates in connection with the Dinas DINAS POAVIS AND Powis and Cogan Flower COGAN Shows this year is a matter FLOWER SHOWS. of regret on the part of both Societies. There cannot be any doubt, if the respective committees persist in their deter- mination to hold the annual fixture on the same day—Wednesday after the Cardiff Show -it will be to the material detriment of both and we would suggest that a joint meeting of representatives be held to see what can be done in the matter to obviate the difficulty. The suggestion made by Mr R. A. COGAN FLOWER SHOW Lewis, the hon. sec- AND retaryof the Cogan INDUSTRIAL COMPETITIONS. Flower Show, that industrial classes be established in connection with the show, was a very happy one, and the meeting very wisely agreed to adopt the same. Industrial sections frequently prove the most interesting and successful, and the good done amongst the competitors in stimulating them to increased efforts is great. Mr John Rees, the deputy-chairman and THE FAILURE OF THE labour member of the EVENING SCHOOLS School Board, made IN THE some telling remarks at BARRY DISTRICT. the last meeting of the Barry Trades & Labour Council. He strongly animadverted-and not without due cause— upon the utter failure of the continuation schools in the Barry district during the present winter. The free evening classes—at which a range of most useful and popular subjects were taught-opened in October with a roll of 1,290, but within three months the aggregate number of members had dwindled down to 353. It is, therefore, not to be wondered at that the members of the School Board determined, after the Christmas vacation, to discontinue the whole of the classes, with the exception of that of phonetic shorthand, which opened four or five months ago with a register of 93 members, and has up to the present maintained an average attendance of 45, many of the pupils showing excellent promise of the acquirement of a most creditable knowledge of the winged art of phonography. Reviewing the evening classes in a word-the School Board, alike in the con- ception and carrying out of the scheme, has displayed a most enterprising and liberal spirit, but the results so far as attendances are con- cerned have proved lamentably disappointing. To the public of Barry, therefore, we say— Fie upon thee fie upon thee We have already referred in these BARRY AND THE columns to the GLAMORGAN AGRICULTURAL probability of SOCIETY. holding the annual show of the Gla- morgan Agricul- tural Society in 1895 at Barry. We have also drawn attention to the necessity of arousing public feeling in the district in support of the suggestion. The matter has not yet come before the Local Board, but it was introduced at a meeting of the Chamber of Trade held on Thursday evening last, when the idea was favourably commented upon, and it wa.s' deter- mined to place the same on the agenda for t full consideration at the next meeting. The committee of the society view the suggestion with favour, and it only remains, we think, for the Local Board and Chamber of Trade to act n conjunction in the matter, and appoint a sommittee to wait upon the committee of the iociety with the view of securing the holding )f the Glamorgan Agricultural Society in the listrict next year.
MARRIAGE OF DR. LIVINGSTONE,…
MARRIAGE OF DR. LIVINGSTONE, BARRY DOnK. The marriage of Mr John Livingstone, M.B., M.D., of Holton-roud, B.trry Dock, and member of the Barry District School Do; d. to Miss Mary Evelyn Watson, second daughter of Mr James Watson, of Cheniter, Iijneilau, and of Sandyford place, Glasgow, took place on Wednesday last at Glasgow, the officiating minister being the Rev Mr Irving, of Innellau, and other clergy. The bride, who was charmingly attired, was sriveu away by her father Dr Stevenson, of Kilmalcolm, an old college friend of the bridegroom, being the best man, and the Misses Winnie and Irene Watson (younger sisters of the bride) and Miss Mary MacFarlane. of Paisley, were the bridemaids. On leaving the church the guests, about a hundred in number, repaired to the Windsor Hotel, St. Vincent-street, where Mr and Airs Watson held a reception, and where Dr and Mrs Living- stone received the numerous congratulations of their friends. During the afternoon a large number of telegrams were received containing felicitous messages, and the newly- wedded couple left by the six o'clock train for Edinburgh and Torquay, where the honeymoon will be spent. The wedding presents were both numerous and costly, and we hope to be able to publish a list of the same in our next issue, to- gether with a complete description of the happy function. Meanwhile, wa offer Barry's greetings to Dr and Mrs Livingstone, and wish them every possible happiness.
GRAND CONCERT AT PENARTH.
GRAND CONCERT AT PENARTH. On Wednesday evening last Mr C. Emlyn Jones, the rising young Welsh tenor, with his celebrated London concert party, paid a return visit to Penarth, and again attracted a crowded and delighted house. The hall was tastefully decorated, and the stage arrangements were very effective. On the appear- ance of the party to open the concert with the chorus, "There is dew for the flnv'ret, they re- ceived an enthusiastic reception. Mr. Emlyn Jones was in line voice, completely bringing down the house with his rendering of Oh, huw I love thee." Madame Emlyn Jones, who was heard for the first time as soloist, is the happy possessor of a very pure aud powerful contralto voice, and she did full justice to her songs. During the evening, Madame Jones was presented with a beautiful bouquet of flowers by Mr A. G. J. Fudge. The other artistes, who appeared to the best possible advantage, were Miss Nellie Hill, Miss Myfawny Williams. Miss Polly Collins. Miss Mary Jenkins, Mr Iago Lewis, R.A.M., Miss Lizzie Price, and Miss Edith Goss.

CURIOUS ACCIDENT AT CADOXTON-BARKY. An accident of an extraordinary character befel Mr Harold Lindsay, clothier, hairdresser, &c., Dock View-road, Barry Dock, a few days ayo. He was proceeding by train from Barry Dock to Cadoxton, and when nearing Cadoxton Station he wished a friend in the carriage Good-bye and stepped out before the train reached the platform. He was. however, precipitated on his head, and it is wonderful that he escaped with only a few slight bruises. Mr Lindsay had a pipe in his mouth at the time, the stem of which he bit in two by the concussion.
