MR. Robert Roberts, B.A., a Liverpool Welshman, who a few years ago was a ware- houseman, has won the Ph.D. in the Leipzic University, in Semitic languages with quite unusual distinction.. Before proceeding to Leipzic, Dr. Roberts studied Hebrew and Arabic under Dr. Witton Davies for four yeafs at Bangor, passing the University examinations in both languages with brilliancy. His disserta- tion on Religious and Social Institutions among the early Arabs as revealed by their Literature," has been adopted as one of a series of Semitic works now being published in Germany-a very great honour. It will be issued in German and in English

Home News. BRECON. At the quarterly meeting of the Breconshire County Council at Brecon, on Friday last, Mr. Sydney Howard, Assistant Surveyor of main roads, Bradford-on-Avon, was appointed County Roads Surveyor for the county of Brecon. There were 90 applicants for the post. The salary is £250 a year without restrictions as to private works. CARDIGAN. A new Carnegie Library was opened at Aber- ystwyth on Saturday last. Mr. Davies, LIandinam, was the principal speaker. Miss Stephen, who has just been appointed superintendent of the Alexandra Hall Women's Hostel, Aberystwyth, is a daughter of the late Mr. Justice Stephen, and a niece of Mr. Leslie Stephen. She occupied a similar position in connection with the Victoria University, Manchester, and her sister is Vice-Principal of Newnham College. The Rev. John Thomas Miles, M.A. (son of the Rev. Job Miles, of Aberystwyth, the new Chairman of the Welsh Congregational Union), has just received a unanimous invitation to become the pastor of the Chester Street English Congregational Church, Wrexham. Mr. Miles, who is a graduate of the London University and of the University of Oxford, had a very distinguished collegiate career at Wadham College, Oxford, and at Mansfield College, Oxford. CARMARTHEN. The Aberavon sands, which are probably among the finest in the kingdom, are attracting large numbers of holiday makers this summer. Ever since the revival commenced in November last the" fire" has been kept burning with almost unabated brightness at Pontycymmer, which was one of the first places visited by Evan Roberts. Meetings have been held nightly at Bethel Cal- vinistic Methodist Church, of which the Rev. D. Mardy Davies is the pastor. These meetings have been specially notable during the past week owing to the presence of a number of visitors from the Continents of Europe and America, who came to the district at the end of last week in the hope of hearing Mr. Evan Roberts, who had been spending a few days with Mr. Davies. It so happened that just as most of them arrived Mr. Roberts left for Maesteg. The visitors, however, stayed on to experience the great revival in one of its strong- holds, and the meetings which they have attended at Bethel have been of a really remarkable character, full of passionate fervency. CARNARVON. Mr. Robert Davies, Bodlondeb, near Bangor, has subscribed £10,000 to the funds of the British and Foreign Bible Society. A window, given by an anonymous donor, was unveiled at the Bangor Cathedral last Wednesday, by the Bishop, in memory of the late Dean Pryce. Their Majesties the King and Queen have been pleased to give their patronage to the National Eisteddfod to be held at Carnarvon next year. After this its success ought to be assured. Furiously driving a motor-car through the village of Port Dinorwic was the charge brought against David Jones, of the firm of David Jones and Co., Colwyn Bay, at Carnarvon on Saturday. The defendant said he was not going more than six miles an hour. A fine of 50s. and costs was im- posed. The Vicar of Carnarvon-who by the way is Lord Aberdare's brother-in-law—thinks "it is hardly possible to credit a man with true religious feeling who is singing Diolch Iddo' with all his might with his arm around a girl's waist, &c." Perhaps not; but a good deal depends upon who the girl is. A prize of £ 5 5s. is offered, by the Principal of the University College of North Wales for the best poem x suitable for adoption as the College song. The poem must be in Welsh, and consist of not less than three nor more than five stanzas. The com- petition is open to the general public, and details may be obtained from Llew Tegid, Bangor. DENBIGH. No fewer than sixty per cent, of the children at Abergele County School have taken Welsh as a subject. They include children of English parents residing in Wales. A very interesting and novel ceremony took place at the Queen Street Congregational Church, Wrex- ham, on Sunday evening last. Just before the hour fixed for the commencement of the service two little gipsy girls were seen outside the church, waiting for the approach of the minister. When he arrived, one of them informed him that they had been sent by their mother to ask if he would christen their little baby brother, who had come into the world four or five days previously, at the gipsies' encampment. Having obtained the minister's consent, the little girls hurried back, and in about an hour's time the elder of the two sisters, together with her father and another sister, arrived at the church with the baby, and they were ushered into the deacons' pew. After the sermon, the minister (the Rev. R. Peris Williams) baptized the little child, whose father named him Nebuchad- nezzar. On Monday the Rev. Peris Williams called at the gipsy encampment, and presented the parents of little Nebuchadnezzar with a certifi- cate of his baptism, and a Bible for his perusal and spiritual guidance when he is able to read and understand its contents. FLINT. A serious outbreak of typhoid is reported from the Holywell district, caused by persons living in insanitary houses. The district medical officer advocates better housing in several areas under his care. If you want to live long be a pauper. They return to the simple life." This was the remark drawn from the chairman of the Holywell Guardians at their last meeting by the number of aged paupers shown on the relief lists. The beautiful hilly country above the Flintshire coast line bids fair to almost rival in popularity the seaside towns below as summer resorts. Hundreds of families from Liverpool, Manchester, and other large towns are in occupancy of farmhouses and cottages. GLAMORGAN. During his visit to Cardiff last week the Hon. Ivor Guest, M.P., called upon Mabon to congratu- late him upon convalescence. The death occurred on Thursday, 27th ulto., of the Rev. David Walter Jones, rector of Kilybebyll, Swansea Valley, at the age of 65. Deceased gentle- man, who was ordained in 1866, had been rector of Kilybebyll since 1870. At a meeting of Cardiff Museum Committee on Friday last, it was mentioned that at the forthcoming National Eisteddfod at Mountain Ash the com- mittee proposed to send a collection of porcelain similar to that which was sent to Rhyl last year, and which was much appreciated. The collection will consist of Swansea and Nantgarw specimens, so arranged as to render comparison as easy as possible. A meeting of the Cardiff Education Committee was held on Friday last at which various appoint- ments were made. In connection with the appoint- ment of a Head Teacher to one of the elementary schools, Principal Griffiths declared that added years of experience, so far from being a qualifica- tion, were often a disqualiifcation. The unselected names included some who had taken university degrees, whilst of those selected only two had degrees. Was it, he asked, wise to discourage teachers who had taken university degrees ? If a teacher devoted his attention solely to his pro- fessional duties, it was apt to have a narrowing effect. # They wanted teachers who had shown energy and ability outside the scope of their pro- fessional duties. MONTGOMERY. Mr. Carnegie has promised 200 guineas towards placing an organ in the parish church, Llanrhaiadr, Montgomeryshire. Mr. Emlyn Holt Davies, of Machynlleth, has been appointed by the directors of the London Missionary Society to go out as a missionary under the auspices of the society at Calcutta. Mr. Davies was educated for the Congregational ministry at the Bala-Bangor College and at New College, London. PEMBROKE. The Admiralty Committee inquiring into the organization of the Royal dockyards visited Pem- broke Dockyard on Saturday. They viewed the slips on which the cruisers "Warrior" and Defence are being built, inspected the sites of certain proposed new works, and also inquired into the management of the storehouse and other departments. The programme for a reduction of the employees at Pembroke Dockyard is to dis- charge 285 men, in weekly batches of about twenty until October 14, and about 75 men weekly during next March, making the total reduction of approxi- mately 600 men. RADNOR. During the presentation to a retiring rural post- man in Radnorshire the other day it was stated that he had walked 14,000 miles to deliver letters.
