The Heat in North Wales. TWO DEATHS AT LLANRWST. On Monday the remains of Mr William Parry, the Llanrwst relieving occer, who died suddenly from syncope, brought about by the extreme heat, were interred in St. Mary's Church, in the presence of a great concourse of mourners. An old man named Ishmael Williams, aged eighty-three, has died suddenly from sunstroke.

What is regarded as the first real achieve- ment by the Peace C-onference at The Hague was made on Tuesday, when Professor Re- nault submitted a report in favour of ex- tending the principles of the Geneva Con- vention to naval warfare. It is considered highly probable that, with some amendments in matters of detail, the report will be adopted. A severe engagement has taken place be- tween the American troops and the Filipinos at Baeoor, in the Philippines. The Filipinos were defeated with heavy loss. The losses cf the Alneiicans were thirty men.

CRICCEITH TREFLYS FOOTPATH. Mr Burnell (chairman of the Council), Mr J. T. Jones (a member of the Council), and Mr J. Tobias (assistant clerk to the Council), met Mr Denniss, manager of the Cambrian Rail- ways, a few days ago, and in- spected the old footpath that led from the borough 30 or 40 years ago, to Treflys. Tarts of the footpath could be seen.. The rail- way had taken over the other portion. If the footpath could be reopened, it would add greatly to the enjoyment of visitors and others, as it would open up the means of approach to the black rocks. A.D. 1119. When pulling down the old premises known as Shop y Groes, in Cas+lo treet,MrO.Parry found an oak chimney beam in a good state of preservation, bearm* ilye date 1119 on it. One of the walls was loft. thick. It is announced that Lord Carrington will on Friday call attention to the report of the Royal Commission on the Land Laws of Wales, and will ask if it is the intention of the Government to legislate oil the subject.

A TRIED AND TRUE FRIEND. The Old Proverb says that "A friend in need is a friend indeed," and it is only when. the need makes itself felt, when trouble and\ sickness visit the family, that the value of a tried and true friend is appreciated. At this season of the year we hear so many com- plaints of sickness cr of weak and failing; health that anything which would assist to remove the sickness and do away with the., cause of the complaints would be a real Family Friend. Such a boon is found ixt- Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters, which strikes at and removes, the cause of disease). and strengthens those parts of the system which have been weakened.

GRIFFITH. — The remains of the late Miss Ellen Gx th, of Bangor street, whose death took place on the 6th inst. after a brief illness, were in- terred at Caeathraw Cemetery on. Friday morning. Miss Griffith, who was well known in business circles of the town, took deep in- terest in political matters, and at election time she was often the means of persuading an occasional obstmate Liberal voter to go to the poll. She was a faithful member of the Moriah Calvinistic Methodist Church, and for years she conducted a Sunday School class at Shiloh C.M. Chapel. The following gentlemen were present at the funeral, which was of a private character First carriage, Dr Parry (Mayor), the Rev Evan Jones, Mr Ellis Jones, and Mr H. Jonathan. Second, Mr R. Griffith (father), Rev J. E. Hughes, M.A., and Messrs Morris and H. Griffith. Third, jvlr G. Griffiths (uncle), Mr H. Jones, Clynnog; and Mr R. Jones, Tre- madoc (brothers-in-law).

Jones, Eryri Works, and Mr Sam Ro- berts, Newborough street. The Rev E. Jones officiated at the house and at the grave- side. The undertakers were Mr J. Hughes, Uxbridge square, and Mr J. Jones, Druid House. THE LATE EOS BRADWEN. Mrs Bradwen Jones and family beg to acknow- ledge through the press the receipt of many letters of sympathy in their sad! bereave- ment, and they regret their inability to reply personally PRESENTATION. On Friday evening, at the Mission Room of the Ebenezer Wes- leyan Church, Mr W. Lloyd Griffith, corn merchant (hon. secretary of the Eryri Male Voice vüoir) was presented with a hand- some gojd-mounted black ebony walking stick by the members of the Carnarvon sec- tion of the choir as a slight token of their esteem. The proceedings were presided over by Mr H. E. Roberts, Bangor street, senior member of the section, and, in the course of an address, he eulogised the service ren- dered by Mr Griffith as secretary of a choir, which, under the leadership of Mr John Williams (organist of Christ Church), gained a notable triumph at the recent London Eis- teddfod, and, latterly, had the honour of singing before their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of York. Mr Roberts added that each member 0f the section, twenty-five in all, had willingly subscribed towards the presentation, a fact which ab- undantly proved that Mr Griffith was held in high regard (hear, hear). In conclusipn, 1 he advised thie members present to &>< all ia their power to keep together a choir whicn had already done excellent work (hear, hear).—Mr Alfred Thomas, as secretary, described how the movement had originated, and reiterated what the chairman had said that the members had shown every readiness to subscribe.—Brief addresses pointing out Mr Griffith's many good qualities were de- livered by Messrs D. Hughes, Richard Jones, J. Cottrell, Walter Thomas, T. J. Thomas, E. H. Williams, D. Jones, and J. Jones — The Chairman then formally presented the stick to Mr Griffith, who, in a few well- chosen words, returned his warmest thanks to the members. He never expected to be made the recipient of so handsome a pre- sentation, and he assured those present that the stick would always find a place of hon- our in his home (hear,hear).— ;3 interest- ing meeting terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman ST. MARK'S HONLIE.-The annual report for 1898 of the North Wales branch of the Church of England Incorporated Society for providing Homes for Waifs and Strays has just been issued. The Rev E. H. Griffith, B.A., hon. secretary of St. Mark's Home, re- ports —"The number of girls at the home is complete. During the year two girls left for service, and are reported to be doing well. Three girls have been admitted dur- ing the year, one being transferred' from the Nursery Cottage, Tregarth. The health of the girls has been very satisfactory. The secretaryship has again changed hands, the Rev E. H. Griffith succeeding the Rev E. O. Jones. Treats to the children have been given by Mrs Davison and Mrs Trevor Hughes. The annual pound day, organised by Miss K. Roberts, resulted in 301 lbs. of groceries and R2 9s 6d' in money. Mr Syl- vester kindly included our home as one of the charitable institutions of the town de- serving his support. Of the £30 distri- buted, £ 10 10s was given to St. Mark's Home. The Committee tender their best thanks to the kind donors of many gifts re- ceived during the year, and wish to express their gratification at the excellent manage- ment of the home, under the superintend- ence of Miss Ryder." During the year Mr Bircham, Local Government Board Inspec- tor, inspected the home, and found the girls to be all in good health. The bedrooms were clean and tidy, and each different little department downstairs kept in a way that showed the children were well taught, and took an interest in their work besides. He I added that he wished there was room for more, but the home was quite full.. The following gifts were received for the home during the year: -Clothes-Miss Beatrice Roberts; Carnarvon Working Guild, per Mrs Trevor Hughes; St. Asaph Working Guild, per Mrs Pennant; Bangor Working Guild, per Mrs Barlow; Beaumaris Work- ing Guild, per Miss Risk; A Friend 20 yards blue serge, per Miss Ryder; Dolgelley Work- ) ing Guild, per Mrs Ashmore; Mrs Finchett Maddock; Miss K.

ALLEGED CRUELTY TO CHILDREN. —Seth Lovell and his wife, residing at 11, Mountain street, were charged by Inspector Rowlands, of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, with neg- lecting their six children. Mr J. T. Roberts prosecuted and Mr J. B. AUanson defended. -The Inspector and Dr Ji. Firans, gave evi- dence to the effect that the- children at the time of their visit were inaa filthy and neg- lected state.—Mr Allanson, for the- defence, said that the defendants were- people, who, had done their best to got out of the place- where they lived at Tannallt, and: now oc- cupied a well-furnished house in Mountain street. The children weue well-fedi and sup- plied with every necessary.. However, the mother had been in a ba/<$state-of health for some time, and it was- perfectly impossible for her to attend to everything. Some of the children had been very toouMesome, and the eldest boy had: been- in the. habit of sleeping out and coming home in a filthy condition. Mr Allanson went on to say that since the visit of the Inspector to the house an improvement had talkou placet and he suggested that the case be adjourned for a time in order to see whether the improve- ment was maintained.-lbe, Bench granted an adjournment for a month, with the view of giving defendants an opportunity for for-! ther amendment.The Mayor, addressing the male defendant, hoped he would keep clear of the drink. j CRUELTY TO A HORSE.-Griffith Tho- mas, Rhostryfian, was charged at the in- stance of the RAP.C.A.. with cruelty to a horse. The effe-nee consisted in the over-i loading of a market car with passengers, f with the result that the vehicle broke down, j It was proved that, though the horse was lame, the «nr had in it as many as 17 pas- sengers, .many of whom, in addition1 to tiie • driver, were drunk.—The Bench imposed a of 10s and costs, j BOUND OVER.-Ellen and Edwin Cooper, Skinner street, summoned Hannah Hughes, Mary Kelly, and William Hughes, for an assault. There were also cross-sum- monses. Mr R. Gordon Roberts appeared for the complainants, and Mr J. T. Roberts defended. The parties were bound over in the sum of £ 5 to keep the peace for six months.—Jane Hughes, 15, Mountain street, and, Ann Williams, 17, Mountain street, were also bound over to keep the peace. ALLEGED FALSE PRETENCES.— Mary Roberts, Voryd, Llanfagdalen, was charged by the police with obtaining blouses by fuASe- pretences from Mr Matthew Kelly, draper, Pbol street. Mr J. B. Allanson de- fended. She was further charged with re- ceiving blouses by false pretences from Mrs J. W. Jones, Pool street. Both charges were dismissed. A third charge was pre- ferred against the accused of obtaining three blouses, value 13s from the shop of Mr D. Roberts, Waterloo House, Carnarvon. After a long hearing, the Bench committed her to the Quarter Sessions, bail being allowed. DRUNKENNESS.—Hugh Jones, Lla.n- geinwen, was fined 2s 6d and costs for being

The Lessons Reviewed. Teachers should be patient; and the author of this series of articles, who is in his humble way a teacher, does try to be patient. Still, it is sometimes a bit worry- ing to see how people continually forget what has been said and repeated for years on end. And always to their own injury and loss. Now, I will once more set down in writ- ing a fact of the highest importance; in hopes that it may be remembered by all who read it. We will put it in a paragraph by itself so it may stand out better-like a house on a hill. Here it is: There is no such thing on the face of the earth as "a strengthening medicine." Yet people, when they find. themselves* weak and feeble fall to taking what are called "tonics" and "strengthening medi- cines," as if any possible good could come of it. Now, bear in mind,, that the jest of these drugs are no more than stimulants, exactly as a birch laid across a boy's back is a stimulant, or a glass of liquor drunk by one who is faint. A stimulant can do no more than draw on the reserves; it borrows for an hour what must be paid back the nexL hour. Do you see ? No matter how you argue the point, no horse owner can be made to believe that whips and spurs can be sub- stituted for oats and hay. The same with the human animal: no amount of this sort of medicines can take the place of good victuals well digested. But when appetite and digestion break down-what then ? Why, then we must do what Mrs Johnson did and lots of folk besides her. "For many years," she goes on to .;ay, "I suffered from ailments of the stomach and liver. I was not seriously ill at first, but had a feeling of lassitude, being easily tired and exhausted. Having up to my fcrty- seventh year (autumn of 1880), enjoyed fair- ly good health, I did not know how to ac- count for my weak condition. There was a sour taste in my mouth, my skin was sallow, and I had a sense of weight and pain at the right side. "I was averse to food, and after eating, an uneasy feeling came upon me; my chest and stomach ached, and I got no comfort until I had thrown up at least part of what I had taken. No matter how light and wholesome it was, I was almost as bad. Nothing really agreed with me. "Early in January, 1895, my husband and I visited our daughter, Mrs Hocking, florist, of Clapton Park Road, London. Whilst there I had a chill and was unable to stand. My head was so dizzy I reeled about the room. My husband brought me home at once. I was put to bed and took strength- ening medicines, but in spite of them I did not rally. "Day aftar day I got weaker and lost flesh rapidly. I could not take liquid refresh- ment only-beef tea, arrowroot, sago, &c.- while the gnawing pain in my stomach got worse. In less than three months I was merely skin and bone, and my friends agreed I would die. "As I was fast sinking, my neighbour, Mr Cort, urged me to resort to Mother Seigel's Syrup immediately. 'It has saved others,' he said, 'and- I believe it will save you.' "I had! heard of it before, but having no faith in advertised medicines, I neglected to use it. Now, however, (September, 1895), I got a bottle from Mr Wiseman, grocer, and' after taking it a short time be- gan to improve. I could! eat with zest, and my food not only gave me no more pain, but strengthened me. "Keeping along with the Syrup, my strength came back with the food the Syrup enabled me to eat and digest. Soon I had the ambition to take hold of my household work again, and did the work with ease and no fatigue. In a wot-d, I got on naturally- my strength being genuine, as one's strength is who has never been ill at all. I tell every- body of what Mother Seigel's Syrup did for me, and you have my free consent to publish what I have said for the benefit of others." —(Signed) MARY E. JOHNSON, 11, Perry Street, Gravesend, Kent, December 22nd, 1898. Mr Wiseman vouches for the truthfulness and accuracy of the above statement, having been familiar with the facts during Mrs. Johnson's illness. I need say no more. You get the idea. The great success and popularity of Mother Seigel's Syrup rests upon what it really does; not on humbug or vain pretence. It opens the way—Nature's road; it gives digestion a chance to do its necessary work, and then food confers upon the feeble new strength, fresh blood, active muscles, pro- perly strung nerves, and the normal func- tions and forces of the body.

Mr Elll Grtmtb. M.P., Questions Mr Chamberlain. In the House of Commons on Tuesday night, Mr Ellis Griffith asked the Secretary for the Colonies whether he could state the cause of the delay in the transmission of Sir Alfred Milner's memorandum on the sub- ject of the Bloemfontein. Conference, and if so, whether there was any reason to believe that there was any intentional interference with the prompt and regular despatch cf such memorandum. Could he state where the delay in the transmission of the message occurred, and whether he could explain the circumstances under which th* "*epresentar tive of the Transvaal Government in Europe received information as to the proceedings at and the result of the Bloemfontein Con- ference before such information reached the Colonial Office. Mr Chamberlain: Sir Alfred Milner's memorandum was first communicated to Reuter's agency, and was transitted as a t Press essage. The delay in transmission is due to the partial interruption of the cable for repairs. I have no reason to believe there fas any intentional: interference with its despatch. The message I sent to the Transvaal was sent as a Government mes- sage, and so obtained priority. On learn- ing that Reuter's message was delayed, I instructed Sir Alfred Milner to send addi- tional messages as Government messages.

Dew and Son, Bangor and Llandudno, on Satur- day onered: for sale by auction, at the Marine Hotel, Holyhead, the Albert Vaults situate in Stanley street.

Lloyd Griffith, M.A., pr-esiding.-The clerk reported that the out-relief for the past three weeks was as follows: -Holy- head, £110 15s 6d to 323 paupers; Aber- £ 69 2s to 172 paupers; Bodedern, J 202 paupers.—The question of the trection of a new wash-house and laundry came before the Board, and tenders were read from the following contractors: -Mr Watkin Williams, Valley, £ 430; Messrs Thomas Owen and William Roberts; Llaingoch, 94-40; Mr Wm. Williams, Tan- yrefail, £530. As all the tenders were con- siderably higher than the estimate, the con- sideration of the matter was deferred. SCHOOL BOARD.—The ordinary month- ly meeting cf thie above Board was held on Wednesday, Mr W. s: Owen in the chair.- Congratulations: A resolution was passed congratulating Mr W. S. Owen on his re- storation to t healtii and his reappearance at the meetings of the Board. Mr Owen warmly thanked the Board. The School Attendance Committee had four cases to bring under the notice of the Board. Three claimed ex- emption as having passed the fifth standard and being over 13 years of age. The matter led to considerable discussion, it being main- tained that parents could claim certificates of exemption and that the teachers were the proper authority to deal with these.- Mr J. N: Thomas said that the bye-laws of the Board only applied to children under 13 years of age, and owne into conflict with the other provisions mentioned.—Mr W. D. Jones moved that the inspector should be informed that a number of parents de- sired to hAe their chitdren' taken from school and requesting him to conduct an examination., with this object in view, at. his earliest convenience.—Miss Annie Ro- kerts wished to know if this could be done. ai5 *?oneS Certainly. We are the local authomty.—The motion was unanimously carried. The Education Department wrote regretting the misunderstanding that had again arisen between the Board and the managers of St. Mary's School, and point- out that they were not compelled to UL the required forms, but must allow thie officer of the Board to get the informa- tion. The Attendance Officer said that Father IYAlton. had told him he did not wish to see him near the school.—Mr E. T. Jones was. instructed to caJl at St. Mary's SAooT, and get the particulars requested m accordance withf the instruction of the Education Department. Miss M.
