Tbe Rhoscolp Lifeboat. TWO RESCUES IN A FORTNIGHT. HEROES AND SUCCESSFIX WORJo-. It was only a fortnight ago or so that fcij•> Rhofc-colyn lifeboat crew accumpli$ked a won- derful rascue.

A steamer iutd twice attempted to tow away tb., ship, but every time the ropes snapped. It was at this time, when the poor schooner wti., absolutely left to her fate, and not many mile^ from the fatal rocks, thai the Rhoscolyn life- b(» ;i bravely wont to the rescue. No time v.-ri. to be lost, for the wind was dead on the land, and ths -hip had but a short time to run before she would finish her helpless course upon the terrible rocks. Four time? the lifeline snapped, and at last two of the crew wen dragged through the water. A a hist resource the coxswain ordered the bort-t under the schooner's stem, and the re- mainder of the crew jumped in 'but not a moment, too scon, for they were only able to clear a deadly point, by two boat's* Length. I Had they failed to do so. rssrened and rescuers 1 must have inevitably perished, for ten minute* later the schooner went to matehwood in Porth Saint Bay. The following is a copy of the letter which the captain and crew of the schooner wrote the coxswain and his brave men We feel that we cannot jV-axe Holyhead, perhaps never to meet again, without attest- ing and expressing our heartfelt and sincere thanks for the bravely of you and your crew in saving our lives from a watery grave on the eve,ning of Sunday, t.be 8th inst.. during the heavy gale and terrible sea and exposure, and also t.r testify io t your spk-ndid seamanship in handling yotr boat in the broken water and in the teeth I of those terrible rooks, and unquestionably your courage and seamanship not only mved j our lives, but those of your crew after ¡ coming into the boat. Therefore, please accept our heartfelt thanks, and or-rvey I the same to your brave crew, and may God bless all of you, and may you be spired to render similar service to our felicw-^earren. ¡ Again, on the 23-rd nit. the RlVvcelvn life- > boat —the name is "Ra,mon Cobrera"—went i out and saved the entire crew of another j schooner.

At Bangor on Botxing Day, before a -Htt ndance. The opening stages favoured the visitors, who immadi.ately made tracui> for Ted Owen. They were quickly beat m ha-, k, nj1 R. Jones rushed a.way, but lt- had no made much progress before he wa». tackled oy one of the visiting tu ba :ks. John Roberts, who app^370" on I" fie'd at this stage, sprtnted away and pas>eO. thr ball to Dick Owen, who fumbled, but. R» Jones obtained possession and oaasj t Plum to handle. The Bangor right wing rcituved along, but before approaching s.h :t;ng range were tackled, and the visi- toT,- got down, only to b< dispossessed by E Ec vards. A run by Jimmy Jones enlivened m; lers, and lie finished bv sending in a W Hlnder which cannoned against the post, Dirk Owen. 119 just too late to meet the ball- Oonvinning the pressure Dai t" bes nearly brought about the downfall of the visiters goal by me^ins of a clever over- 1 hewi kick. Theve was an entire absence of co.i ertcd work, both sets of players rely- 1n;, solely upon ther rujsRing powers. A fine opportunity of scoring was missed oj Div k J on"S, who foolishly attempted o tacide Single hat ded three opponents. The 1 honie lot again approached the Crewe gcai, pj having tolleal fth a slow ground v fror, Dick Jcraes, and, directly after kicking :r, he was biindled :iit.o the net by Dai R'erts. The homesters continued t t hhV" the best of matters, ond R. Joues bi;n.!jed in a ten ihc shet which was followed h' two fruitless corners. Selfij-;hnes« eft" tot" part of tho Bangor forwards was far prominent aJvd undoubtedly was r' wpoesdble for tie iais of several goa's.

The Bar.:jor gc il was again the scene of hosti!i- and when the ball was cleared t >e fcovaafc wards made their in tial concerted j.nt. Jimmy Jones being en- trust.' (1 with the final effort, which eo:n- ple* iy deceived Plum. The visitors thtn ■'} a spirited attack, aud Hares cleverly *■' 'T>ped the ball between, the post and th*3 bar, arid, to the afitonisliment of ue gators, the ball travelled into, the net. L K Jones alled down the field Ül. a frne and. at the right moment passed to «'-tnmy Jones. who(, taking deliberate .ura, £ C<n<!d an unmistakable goal. Agaiii the 1. forwards forced aiiead, Jimmy finishing a promising movement by .sending behind, and a few mLautes later iu-i a;;a to clear a volley from W. Eva us. ilc turning the attack Dick Jones put in clever work, which resulted in R. Owen sc.or.ng the third goaJ with a clever shot. The &a- peri«rity of the home team was very pro- nounced, and it was seldom the visitors were allowed to break away. Half-time Banger, 3 goals; Crewe St. John's, 1 goal. The second porticta of the game opened rather sensationally, the Crewe goal being warmly assailed, and Dick Owen crashed in a shot which cannoned olf the custodian to Jimmy Jones, who sent over. At length R. Jones succeeded in defeating the cus- todian twice, and R. Owen utilised a pas- from, J. Roberts to) register the sixth goal. Final result: Bangor, li goals, Crewe St. John's, 2 goals. BANGOR BANGERS v. CITY AMATEURS Played on Chr istmas day, the Itangers winning by six goals to one. The for the Rangers- were Edward Owen (2), Morgan Griffith (3), and Robert Roberts i). ABERYSTWYTH TOWN v. PORTMADOO TOWN. These teams met, in the th rd round of the Welsh Senior Cup at Aberystwyth. This was the third meeting of both teams m the s.vtne round, the two previous meetings ending in tV draw of two gool." each. Port- madoc were bent on winning after the fine gatne« they pla.ye<I against the Bangor Druida and Machynlleth, but when tune was called each teu ill had scored one goal each, so that another meeting is necessary. j BANGOR DRUIDS v. PORTMADOC 1 TOWN. On Christmas morning the Bangor Druids (holiday team) journeyed to Port- ir.afloo to play a, friendly with tb(' town olub. The ground was in good condition. The homesters won the toss, and elected to play wiith a. strong wind behind them. J. Williams started for the visitors, who at oneo took the bell to the home territory, and in the first, minute- the hclme goal- keeper had to handle, and the goal wa. cleared with the aid of the bacly- who in- dulged in long kicking. The home team soon took the I- ball to the other end, and Moselev. their outside right, .sent in a splendid ground shot, and Jones, the goal- keeper, made a marvellous for which he was cheered. The visitors again paid a vmt to the home territory, but the defence was too good for them- The home for- wards received the ball from the halves, and after a; combined game several shots were rained at the visitors' goal, and Jones was beaten after making some good clearances. After this the visitors gave the home de-- fe-nne some trouble, but thanks to the fine work of the backs, clanger w:4" averted. The heme team, a'detl by the breeze, were ovce more in the visitors' quarter, and the inside- left scored the. second point for the home team. The. home team led at half- time by two goals to nil. Shortly after re- startiinp W. H. Evans:, for the visitors, shot the ball into the net, but :much to the ■surprise of thei players and spectators the referee disallowed: the paint. The rlst )f the game was evenly contested, and Port- madoc won by two) goals to nil. CARNARVON v. FLINT. Carnarvon encountered Flint in a friendly nlatch at the Oval, Carnarvon, on Boxing Day. Thfcre was a largo attendance. Several old Flaers figured in the homo team, namely, J. Hugh Evans, Will Morris, D O. Edward?, J. R. Williams, D. S. Jones, and Kinsley, each of whom gave a fine exhi- bition of football. From the outset the Carnarvonites assumed the aggressive, and repeated attacks were made on the visitors' I citadel. The home forwards forced a 1 corner. D. O. Edwards nicely put the kick, and the ball struck the cross-bar, and Tom I Roberts headed it into the net. two more goals were scored by Carnarvon before the irterval. Play in the last half was more eyciting. The visitors occasionally made J good runs, hut tbeiT efforts to score were abortive. However, they managed to break through the homo defence, and scored twice. Pinal result: Carnarvon, 6 goals Flint, 2 goals. CARNARVON RANGERS v. HOLYHEAD SWIFTS. Played at the Upper Park, Carnarvon, on Boxing Day. The game ended in a draw, each team scoring two goals. CARNARVON RESERVES v. CARNAR- VON RANGERS. Played at the Oval, on Christmas Dav. The former won by 5 goals to 1.

-oo- FOOTBALL NOTES. Although the holiday programme arranged by the Executive Committee of the Bailor football Club was by no means an attractive tuie, it is gratifying to record thai the two ..witches were well patronised. Th." "gate" ■ hi Boxing Day. when the Crewe fet. John's the visitors, was a record one for the present season, and this redounds greatly to the credit of. the players and the executive aiike. Both matches were fought in earnest. At times the visitors on Boxing Day played ■ieunminedly, the second goul being the cli- A x to a fine movement, bnt in the second half they failed to make headway, and retired beaten by six goais to two. Chi the. whole, the home team gave a satisfactory exhibition. Seigeant Jones, a. player hailing from Colwyn Bay. made his first appearance in the Ban- gor team, filling the right full-back position. It was soon .^ppareait that this player had wen "better days" on the football field In the front division R. Owen worked untiring md insisted upon shooting when occasion arose. This is an example which certain of his confreres might copy. The goals scored bv R. Jones and Jimmy Jones were cleverly obtained, and Dai and J. lv>beits should certainly have figured in the list of the scorists. The halves worked assiduously, the two reserve men. W. Evans and Le\vi:>. accom- plishing many clever things. Further behind K. Edwards, who is a most consistent player. made several timely clearances. No player iti the Crewe team w.ih unduly prominent, but the goal scored by Hares was cleverly ob- tamed. It was n, flier unfortunate for Bangor that the Combination game at Birkenhead had to be abandoned when the scoring was equal, To sta.ve off defeat, the Bangor defence must. have played an exceptionally sturdy game, ad the result is greatly to their credit, es- pecially when it is remembered that until the second* half the visiting team contained only ten men. Bv the way. ha.s not this ten men business taken place too often of late in the team, and is it not possible to exercise greater stringency with regard to the dilatory players who place, their side at a great disadvantage. It was strange that Referee Hersee should have allowed the Bangor Reserve v. Hoiyhend match on Saturday to take place, for the ground was covered with pools of water, whilst those parts that were rot. were really unplayable and incessant rain fell throughout the game. Accurate pissing was out of the rjucstibn. but the players struggled through the pools and mud with commendable dash.
