No Dissolution of Parliament this Year. A London correspondent writes —" W fiatever may be the final issue of the communications be- tween Mr Balfour and Mr Chamberlain, I hear on good authority that the Prime Minister has made it quite plain to the member for West Bir- mingham that he has no intention of dissolving this year. The Unionist organs seem still to believe that Mr Balfour and Mr Chamberlain, if not united in their policy, are at least moving towards the same end. This idea, however, excites amusement and ridicule in the Unionist party. The Prime Minister makes no secret now that the one thing above all others which he desires to do is to get rid of the policy of Mr Chamberlain. All his recent tactics have been directed to that object, and in spite ot Mr Chamberlain's apparent cheerfulness, Mr Balfour has succeeded, so far as the party in the House of Commons is concerned. A great majority of its members are undoubtedly opposed to the Birmingham policy, but at the same time, it Mr Cbamberian stands to his guns, the division in Unionist ranks will become incurable. The Prime Minister's friends, how ever, are confident that they wiil be able to kill Chamberlainism as an effective political force. That they have done so in the House of Commons is now plain to every one, but whether tbey Ilave accomplished this object in the country is a very different question. Mr Chamberlain still seems to hope they will carry the party in the country with them, and in that event lie would regain the position from which Mr Balfour has at least partly driven him. There was probably never been a more peculiar political situation. The Prime Minister and Mr Chamberlain are separated by fundamental differences. The one is trying to destroy the policy of the other, at.L. ja many of their sup- porters profess to think that they are both mov- ing towards the same goal."

She Remembers Waterloo. A native of Rhydyberth, near Tenby, in the person of Mrs Elizabeth Cochrane, on Wednesday attained her hundredth birthday. Practically all her life Mrs Cochrane has lived in Wales, and only during the last few years has she migrated to Southsea, Hants, where she now resides with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr and Mrs Smith. She was seen by a representative of the W estern Mail," and to him she gave a remarkable account of her life-story. Despite her great age, she en- joys wonderful health, and, what is more remark- able, still retains her faculties, to use her own words, as clear as ever." At eight years of age she was taught a text which she remembers to this day, and which she repeated to the reporter. Two years later she went to live at a village near Narberth, and distinctly remembers a neighbour entering her mother's kiteb^i there and joyously announcing We have won the battle of Water- loo." Quite clearly Mis Cochrane re-calls the ex cessive price paid for commodities. In her early days salt was very expensive, so much so that to salt a pig it cost half the pig for btiue. Tea was no less than 8s a pound, and potatoes, which had only just been introduced into this country as a general food, were beyond the reach of most people. They cost 10s for two gallons. Peas and barley- bread were the staple food. Mrs Cochrane comes of a long-lived stock. Of her eleven sistars and brothers many lived to a very great age, and her mother died at 95. Eight years ago the combined ages of the five children then living reached the extraordinary of total 437 years. The old lady has been manied twice, and had five children, and attributes her old age to early rising, bard work, and temperate habits. Her constitution is still, says her doctor, as sound as a bell, and she should liye for many years yet.

MILFORD. Tuesday, May 23rd, at the Masonic Hall, Mil- ford Haven, entertainment by Rev. E. Nicholson Jones, consisting of recitations, songs, magic, (with hints on "How to make money"), and a ventriloquial sketch. THE GUNS OF THE "FOUDROYANT,"—Mil- ford Haven is losing one of its attractions. For some years past about thirty ancient muzzle1, loaders, once the armameutof the old Foudroyant, 1 have been in position at the entrance to the dock. Foudroyant II. is now in the dock loading up the guns for removal. They will be retained on board the Foudroyant (nee Trincomalee), and kept as mementoes of the great Nelson period in the story of our Navy. THE MACKEREL TRADE.—Notwithstanding the severe weather which prevailed at the be- ginning of the mackerel season, which is just ] closing, it was one of remarkable progress, and there can now be no doubt that Milford Haven is now firmly established as the principal port for the industry. Many of the diifters are now leaving ai d going elsewhere in preparation for the herring fishery. DEATH OF MISS CARTER.—There was a repre- sentative [attendance at the cemetery, on Monday, when the interment took place of the remains of Miss Carter, sister of Mr W. P. Carter, j < (late of the L. and P. Bank), who had died at her residence, Richmond House, North Road, after an illness of three months', duration. Prior i to the interment a short service was conducted at the Wesleyan Chapel, by the Pastor, the Rev. ( F. Parsons. The deceased lady was well known, having come to Milford from Haverfordwest many years ago. A prominent Wesleyan, she took a deep interest in the welfare of that Church, and her regularity in attending the services was' a noble example to many with a much less weight ] of years. She had attained the ripe age of 7b. GOSPEL SERVICES.—Commencing on Tuesday night week gospel services were continued through I the week and on Sunday evening were held at the old Wesleyan Chapel, Dartmouth Street. The meetings were in the hands of Mr E. G. Gully, assisted by Mr and Mrs Reed and, though the speakers belong to the Plymouth Brethren, the meetings were purely unsectarian. The audiences were fairly good. The services are being con- tinued for another fortnight. THORNTON BAPTIST CHAPEL.—The annual; Band of Hope tea and entertainment were held at the above place yesterday week. Tea was provided for the juveniles in the schoolroom, and an enter- tainment was given consisting of songs, recitations by the children and members of the Band of Hope in a manner which reflected creditably upon their tutor, Mr R. J. Blackmore. The chair was occupied by Mr Thomas Wilcox, whilst Mrs Blackmore presided at the instrument. The entertainment was the best held by far for many years. THE BANKRUPTCY OF MR F. W. STEPHENS.— F. W. Stephens, a brewer's clerk, of Milford Haven, came up at the Pembroke-Dock Bank- ruptcy-court on Friday for his second examination. He had a deficiency of £257, practically the whole being overdraft at the bank. The Official Receiver applied to have the examination of the debtor adjourned. Mrs. Stephens, who claimed the house and the furniture and money in the bank as her property, was examined by Mr. Price (Haverfordwest) as to a sum of £240 which bankrupt alleged he had spent in maintaining himself, wife, and family, while she had a balance in the bank. The further examination was ajourned till the next court. WESLEYAN TEA AND ENTERTAINMENT.—This event, which had been unavoidably postponed took place yesterday week when there was a large attendance at the tea at which the work was carried out expeditiously by the teachers and senior scholars. In the evening there was a large a appreciative audience at the entertainment, at; which the programme consisted entirely of songs, recitations, drills, action songs, &c, by the children and every credit is due to Miss M. i Reynolds and MissE. Dove, for the way they, had prepared the youthful artistes. Miss Cowley very efficiently acted in the capacity of pianist, and Mr John Rees, Hakin, was the president, Mr John Walters, superintendent of the school, proposed and Mr A. J. Lewis seconded a vote of thanks to all who had by their efforts brought about such a successful evening's entertainment. PROPERTY SALE. —Messrs. Evans and Roach offered at Milford Haven yesterday 26 building sites in North-road and on the road to the Priory, Milford Haven.

RQCH. SACRED CONCERT.—The concert promoted by the Wesleyan Methodist Church at the above place on May 11th, in aid of the Restoration Fund, was, from every standpoint, a great success. Number of friends from tar and near availed themselves of the opportunity of listening to the local talent so well known throughout the county. The church was exceptionally fortunate in enlisting the services of such a fine caste of; artistes for the occasion. Mr Canton sang two fcoloe in excellent style, his rendering of the Holy City being highly appreciated, Other well known soloistsWere Messrs Thomas, Rees, Hancock, Williams and Davies, Miss Harries, of Hayscastle, and Miss Rose Williams, Rudbaxtpn. A splendid feature of the concert was the excellent singing of the choir. Tne training and practise of the members must have been considerable, and Mr Joseph Davies, the conductor, should be heartily congratulated on the success which attended his efforts. A quartette by Mr Thomas and party, and a duet by Messrs Davies and Phelps formed a pleasant change in the programme. Special mention should be made of the solo so admirably rendered by May Meyler, of EOûh. Her voice is so sweet and pure that leads one to anticipate a bright future for this juvenile soloist. Mr Rhys Birch fulfilled the duties of presiding chairman in his characteristic genial manner. Miss Jenkins, of Haverfordwest, and Miss Lewis, of Koch, were responsible for the musical part ot the programme, and attributed in no small degree to the success of the concert. The artistes—most of whom had to respond to the repeated encodes of the audience—did full justico to the various items, and the concert will rank as one of the best held in the district for some time.—Communkatcd.

Mr Marlay Samson and the Con= servative Organisation. In a letter to the Mail Mr M. Samson, chairman of the Executive Committee of the Central Con- servative Council of the Pembroke Boroughs, replies to some comments by West Carmarthen Voter'' in a recent issue on the absence of political speeches and meetings on the Conserva- tive side during recent years in the South Wales constituencies, and amongst them specifies Pem- broke Boroughs as one where apathy has prevailed. Mr Samson says :—"As this appears to reflect upon the Central Conservative Council's Executive Committee in these boroughs, I venture to say, in answer thereto, that we have held fourteen public political meetings in the last fourteen months, in addition to various party gatherings at which addresses were delivered. We have had one public meeting at Pembroke Dock addressed by the Right Hon. Walter Long. We have distributed a considerable amount of political leaflets from time to time, and careful attention has been given to the work of registration by paid agents. There are in existence four political clubs in the constituency, all of which, with one exception, are doing active work in the Conserva- tive cause, and we have had a Unionist member of Parliament for the last ten years. I do not think, therefore, that your correspondent has been quite fair to us in describing the Conservative party as IN a state of torpor." I should like also to endorse an observation of One of the Rank and File in your issue of the same date. Were it not for the assistance, personal and :T'financial, of the leading families in South Wales matters would be in an even worse plight than at present, from a Conservative point of view, in South Wales."

Pembroke Imperial Yeomanry" THE ANNUALTRAINING. The annual training of the Pembroke Imperial Yeomanry commences on Tuesday next, at Holloway, a short distance from Tenby, and close to the villiage of Penally. The site of the camp will be that occupied by the regiment two years ago, and it is an admirable one in all res- pects for the purpose. The tents will be pitched upon high ground in the field known as the Croft. Immediately in front of the camp lies the Burrows, with its golf links and Government shooting range furthei away, Caldy Island and the blue waters of Carmarthen Bay, backed by the rugged Gower coast, affords a pleasing picture, whilst in the tar distance ebbs and flows the Bristol Channel, with the hills of the Devonshire coast discernible in. fair weather. Immediately in rear of the lines will be situated the kitchen and mess tents of the non-commissioned officers. The catering will be entrusted to Messrs Dowdall, of Newport, who have on previous occasions under- taken the work and satisfactorily carried it through. Preliminary work in connection with the camp has already commenced. The water supply, al- ways an important factor, will be undertaken by the Tenby Corporation, the camp being supplied by a main laid from the Marsh Road, across the marsh to the Burrows, whence distributing mains will radiate to various parts cf the camp as needed for the ahorse troughs, culinary, and other purposes. The "A and "B" troops, from Tenby and Haverfordwest respectively, will march into camp; "C" and "D," from Carmarthen and Lampeter will arrive by train at Penally station. The regiment comprises four squadrons. The establishment is 476 officers and troopers, and it is expected that the strength in camp will be 450. Colonel Meyrick, C.B., is in command, and the adjutant is Captain Hunter, 4th Dragoon Gruaxds. PEMBROKE.-DOCK. The printed replies to Parliamentary questions issued on Wednesday include a statement by Mr Prettyman, in answer to Mr John Burns, that the total number of men discharged from Royal dockyards since June, 19U3, for causes other than misconduct are as follow :—Portsmouth, 1,842; Devonport, 2,492; Sheerness, 679 Pembroke, 252.—These figures include men discharged at their own request, and on superannuation, but not those entered for cusual employment. A history of Pembroke Dock, by Mrs Stewart Peters, will be published shortly by Mr Elliot Stock. WILL OF THE LATR MR J. C.

Calvinistic Methodist Musical Festival. A GREAT SUCCCSS. The tenth annual Musical Festival in connection with the churches of the South Pembrekeshire Calvinistic; Methodists, took place at St. Andrew* Chapel, Pembroke Dock, on Wednesday. Special trains conveyed the choirs from Clarbeston Hoad, Wiston, Haverfordwest, Milford, Tenby. Pembroke and other district places. The day was beautifully fine and at the time fixed for the -^afternoon meeting, the magnificient and spacious chapel was filled, the balcony being reserved for the choirs, which num- bered about 400. Mr Tom Price, of Merthyr, was this year again conductor, while Miss Gertrude Webb, of Pembroke Dock, again presided at the beautiful organ. The choir was taken by Dr. T. B. P. Davies, M.D,M.S. (London) of Milford Haven. and in the course of his opening remarks, stated that singing was the means of connecting the pew to the pulpit and if one was separate from the other both become use- less. He was very pleased to be placed in the posi- tion he had been that day, and in closing his remarks be referred to the recent illness of the indefatigable Secretary, Mr LI. Thomas, and trusted he would be long spared to continue in the work he had so much at heart. The Conductor then opened the festival. The singIng was excellent, and after a little friendly critisism, the choir giving their strict attention to the conductor's movements; a high standard of efficiency was attained. The altos brought forth special praise, while the tenors were better thau iu previous years. The basses were as well in good form, and the sopranos left nothing to be desired. The selection of hymns this year was equal to any festival yet held and the results of some of the renderings will long be remembered. The meeting was concluded with prayer by Rev. B. Lewis, Tenby. The usual committee meeting was held immediately after, when arrangements were made for next year's festival. In the schoolroom the choirs were supplied with tea, as well as visitors, about 500 partaking of the good things provided. At the evening service the chair was ably filled by Mr B. Lawrence, C.C., Begelly, R.S.O. The service was opened by the sing- ing of Pwlhelli" in which the congregation joined, after which a short address was given by the Chair- man—who in the course of his remarks stated it gave him unbounded pleasure to be present and to hear such delightful renderings of hymns and choruses. He humourously narrated a story of himself on one occasion in which he sang a. solo, after which be was told he could rest satisfied now he would never be called on again. This brought forth a deal of laughter &nd he went on to say that as there was a large pro- gramme to go through he could do no better than to ask Mr Price to take charge of the meeting. The singing at the evening was more perfect than in the afternoon, the choirs having, by this time, got well into the ideas of the conductor and they strictly adhered to his remarks at the previous meeting. The anthem was exceedingly well rendered and the con- ductor said that considering how difficult it was for small choirs to learn the piece he thought it reflected great credit on the respective local conductors. The Rev. Win. Mendus (Haverfordwest), in an address, referred to the remarks made by a speaker in the afternoon service who stated that, at a Festival held in Haverfordwest last year, clapping of hands took place of which he disapproved. Mr Mendus, stated that this was the way Haverfordwest people showed their appreciation of a good thing and he noticed that the collection in Haverfordwest, where clapping of hands took place, was nearly a iil more than was taken up there that day. (Laughter). He dwelt at some length on the good work accomplished by festival singing and his remarks were instructive and very much appreciated by the audience. After the collection had been taken up, several other hymns were rendered and the Conductor was so pleased with some of them that the last verse was repeated over and over again. This concluded the singing festival and after a few well chosen expressions of thanks to the Conductor and to Miss Webb for their work the meeting was closed with prayer. Singing festivals are growing in popularity and the great improvement in these choirs since its establishment 'nine years ago can well be noticed. The return train for Haverfordwest and Milford left Neyland at 9.30 p.m. BOOT FROM THE DOCK. When a female prisoner named Lee was fined at Hull Police Court the other day for drunken- ness aDd assaultiug the police, she took off her boot and threw it at the Stipendiary Magistrate, who narrowly escaped being struck on the head. She was seized by a policeman and later sentenced to two months' hard labour. £ 300,000 OF STORES DESTROYED IN SOUTH AFRICA.

If so, invest in a Flannel. A good one will pay you It can be put away till next summer Cheap suits are wasted money and false economy. SHRUNK FLANNELS, Thoroughly Tested, Should last for several seasons. Why ? Because a Flannel is not given hard wear. It is only worn during excessively hot weather. It should wash and not shrink. The man who buys a Flannel Suite every season is extravagant. For JZ2 2se you may have a Summer Suit made on the Premises at W. E. C.

TEN BY. Bathing on both the beaches at Tenby has al- ready commenced, the delightful weather of the last few days making a "dip" most enjoyable. We regret to hear that the Rector of Gum- freston, the Rev. G. E. Massy, is seriously ill. The services at the church are being taken by the Rev. G. C. Rowe, of Tenhy. We are pleased to hear that Agnus Scott Lewis, youngest son of the bite Rev. John Lewis, Tenby has lately been appointed assistant solicitor to the Treasury, under the Earl of Desart, the Treasury solicitor. Mr Lewis served his articles with Mr C. W. R. Stokes, of Tenby. PROPOSED SUMMER BAND.—The Estates Committee of the Tenhy Corporation have do- cided to recommend the To\\n Council to engage a Band, and the recommendation will be brought up at the adjourned meeting of the Town Council on Monday. GIRL'S FALL FKOM A RAILWAY TRAIN.—The girl Kate Da vies, who fell from a train between Tenby and Penally stations last week, and was removed to the Cottage Hospital, suffering from what at the time were regarded as serious injuries, is now making rapid progress towards recovery, and will, it is expected, be shortly discharged from the institution. The road between Penally and Lydstep, which is dangeriously narrow in one or two places, has undergone considerable improvement lately. A long stretch of road near Bubbleton Farm has j been widened, and further along towards Lyd- step an awkward corner has been cut off by throwing a piece of the Burrows into the road. Mr J. Wynford Philipps, M.P., has carried out this very necessary improvement. MR. C F. EGKIITON ALLEN AND HIS COSTS, —An amusing situation, reminding one of the peculiar positions that were created in the Gilber- tian comic operas has arisen over the payment of the costs of Mr Allen's last law suit. On the one hand the litigant's solicitor write from London demanding payment of the costs from the Corporation. On the other hand, the litigant 1 himself gets up in the Council Chamber and solemnly warns the Council that they will be subjected to all sorts of pains and penalties if they dare to pay. SMART ARKKST AT TENBY.—On Wednesday night a man named Edwin Jones, of Birmingham, was arrested at Tenby by P.C. George Phillips (66) on a charge of stealing £60 and a lady's and a gentleman's silver watches from a Mr Booker, of Liverpool. Information was received from t: the Liverpool police at 3 o'clock on Wednesday J night, accompanied by a photograph, and in less than an hour afterwards the arrest was made in High Street. The prisoner is a Royal Naval Reserve man, and was putting in the annual drill at Tenby when arrested. Both watches, with a portion of the money, have been recovered. j
