Special Constables.
Special Constables. A meeting was held at Victoria Hall on Thursday evening of last week to swear in special constables. There was a large number of men present ..ll of whom re- sponded to the appeal and joined the special constabulary. Inspector Jones and P.C. Richards had previously taken down the names of over 200 persons representing all classes of the community. The Lord Lieutenant (Colonel Davies- Evans) presided and was supported on the platform by Councillor William Jones (Mayor), Captain B. Davies-Evans, Prin- cipal Bebh ad Mr. Roderick Evans, J.P. The Chairman, in explaining the objects or c-he force, said the county had been asked to raise a IXKIV of special constables. The Chief Constable took the matter in hand and Lad met- with great success. Some people might a-sk if special constables I were necessary. There were riots or an- ticipated riots and the people of the county were peaceable people; but unfortunately pence had been ruthlessly broken and the country was lighting for its very existence. Tf the Germans won they would then attac k England. If They could elude the fleet they would at once attempt to attack British dockyards and seaport towns and levy large sums on the inhabitants. The Germans were not likely to come to Aber- nyron, but the authorities had to think large towns like Swansea and Cardiff which should be guarded. Lines of com- munication should also be kept open and roads and railways should be carefully watched. Strategical 'points were now guarded, but troops should be ready to be rushed down to points of attack. There was a large number of foreigners in this country and one of them might drop a bomb of exnlosives on to the Towy or Lougher bridges and destroy the railways, while a ship could slip, quietly in. They were now guarded- by police, but lhat could not go on if the war took a bad turn. Special constables would be then abso- lutely necessary. He had never found the county backward yet in anything it was asked to do. The Chief Constable would rot be d'sapnointed in the appeal he had made. Cardiganshire was sometimes 1 me, blamed for being backward in recruiting; but it was nor realised how many of their people were enlisting away from the county for this Mar. He called on Mr. William Jones, mayor,-to address.the meeting. Mr. Jones s;i:d he was ready to do what be could and W;1¡.; glad to hear from the Lord Lieutenant tb-it Cardiganshire people were not behind. Principal Bebb said that they had a body of ie n there that night quite fit to meet the Kaiser if he came to Aberayron. Dr. Dehh continued by making a stirring appeal for recruiting. Speeches were also made by Councillor Cluis. Evns. Mr. Roderick Evans, and by Dr. E. H. Griffiths, who said the young rtion present onght to do-more than act as sneeial constables. Captain B. Davies- F,tns said tint men under thirty-five ought to Vie ready to yo to Berlin and the I"(,t eeuld be :r>eoi;i! constables. The Chief C'e?i«tab1<» -iddrey=ed the meet- ing which was called, he said, in response- to a circular from the Home Office. The response was better than lie had expected. By the end of next month the county would have a force of two or three thousand. Syecial constables were wanted to support the police in of disturbances and strikes to ftnarc1 railways and roads. They were not likely to have riots in Cardigan- -hiro and there- was no main line of rail- way through the county. It had been said that young men ought to go in for some- thing else. He would like to see them do that. What h<» wanted now was young men to bo drilled so that -if they wanted to go further thev could do so. They wanted them to guard their country in ease of emergency. They could not possibly face a commotion with a mob. They could not handle a mob by another mob. They must have trained men. Thev would have I hdv pf men under thirty-five years of asie and by the end of next month they would have them quite as well trained as Lord Kitchener's Army. He was surprised to see such fine physique in the country districts of Cardiganshire. Fifty per cent. of the young men there would be snapped ::t for the Guards. Referring to the new Army Corps for Wales, Mr. Williams said if there was a call to Cardiganshire to form a battalion it would be a credit to any county in Wales. Tho duties of special constables would be practically nil as far as could now be anticipated but they should bo trained, patriotism instilled in- to them and made to feel that they had a duty to perform. They had a drill instruc- tor second to none in Sergeant-Major Fear, who had spent years in the Guards and at the Duke of York's School and who was a I church member and a. total abstainer. Serge ant-Major Edwards had kindly volun- teered his services free of charge and would be the local instructor. Sergeant-Major Fear then organised the new constables into four squads and drilled the younger squach;, the other squads look- ing on. Thrpf cf the squads will undergo weekly drills, and the fourth squad con- sisting of persons over forty-five years of I age will be exempt-ed.

T, Morgan, Tanygelli, pre- sided. Mr. I). J. Morgan dwelt on the importance of economising agricultural produce and of extending corn laud.

He bought from her a pint of new milk for ld" part of which was analysed. On the morning I of the 25th he went to Velindre and wit- nessed the milking of two cows. When lu< pointed out that defendant had not fully milked the two cows, ehe replied "I always milk the first part and send the girl with it to Llaurhystyd. Then I go back to finish milking the cows. I want you to take the sample of milk as I sent it to L'anrhystyd." He said the cows must be milked every drop befo'e he would take a sample. Defendant then milked the cows fully, but protested that it was unfair to do differently from what she had done be- fore.—Mr Emrys Williams, Aberystwyth, appeared for the defendant, who contended on oath that the weather was so hot when the sample was taken that she milked the cows when they were standing in the river, and conseque.itly the quality of the milk was not as good as usual.— Defendant, who had been previously convicted, was fined i:2 and costs, with the Analysts's fee.
