FOOTBALL NOTES. The Bangor Combination team, which was deputed to play Portmadoc on Sat- urday in a North Wales Coast League match, has been very adversely criticised. By their defeat the chances of the Bangor Reserves heading the League table at the eose of the season have been made very remote, and the juniors are naturally very sore about it. From all accounts of 1;(1 game it. would! appear that Portmadoc ful j deserved their decisive victory, being su- perior to the Bangor men in all detjart- ments. Aided by a strong wind the home forwards soon made their presence felt, and Dick Hughes brought some tricky work i a climax with a clever shot, which defeated Ted Owen, the Bangor custodian. Roberts and Motley Jones then became trouble- some, the former capturing the Banrror goal for the second time. Bangor made occasional rushes, Pughe once sending wide. At half-time the home lot were, lea l ing by four clear goals. In the second half the game was more evenly contested, and Moran scored what proved to be Bangor's solitary goal. The teams which have been selected by the North Wales Coast Association for 'he East v. Wost. match at Llandudno have l 111 been subjected to corsiderable criticism. Surprise is expressed at the exclusion of Jack Arridge. It might console tkose players who feel slighted at being omitted from tho teams to know that the one desive of the Association was tc have as many teams as possible attached to the League i c- pre.se nteci at the match. NOTES BY "VETERAN." The game between Portmadoc and Baa gor ollOSatlrday aroused much interest, as I the chamrJionhip of the North Wales Ooasn I League for this season practically depended ( on the result. Portmadoc must ho on- I gratulated on their krilliant victory over such a team as Bangor. The Canaries aj-e on good terms with themselves. They went to Llandudno on Saturday to play the Amateurs, and aftor a tough game they succeeded in vanquish- ing their opponents. While the first Carnarvon team was doing duty at Uandudno, the Reserves played Cwmyglo in a League fixture unde." the auspices of the South Carnarvonshire League, at the Oval, and after a hard: struggle ran out winners by one goal to nil. Cwmvglo came out of the ordeal better than they expected:, and they axe anxious to see how Portdinorwic and Llanoons will fare when they meet, the Nops' Reserves The Llanberis Committee find it. very difficult to get their first team players to go to play matches away. At Llandudno they had four reserves, while the Amateurs were at full strength. The team, however, returned home beaten only by one goal I o nil. I venture to say that if the quarry- men had gone to Llandudno that day with their full team they would have returned home two points to the good, and! also from Conway on Saturday week. Llan- beris, in fact, have thrown five points awav during the last fortnight.

MR CARNEGIE' MILLIONS. PEXRlIIWC}IBER'S INDEPENDENCE. Throughout the Aix;rdare Valley the Free Library Question has been exciting a con- siderable amount of interest. It. was caused through an offer being made by Mr Andrew Carnegie of L700 to the people of Penrhiw- ceiber, "conditional upon the maximum assessment under the Free Libraries' Act I being levied over the whole district, and a .free site being provided, the cost not being a burden upon the penny rate." Penrhiwceiber is one of those progressive and enterprising mining towns which, long before Mr Oarnegie ajid his millions were heard of, had established a library and public hall of its own, maintained by the miners employed at the local collieries, who contribute Id per JS1 of their earnings towards the in- stitution. In this way some thousands of pounds nave been contributed towards tne splendid edifice which now stands in Pen- rhiwceiber road. These workmen therefore thought it unjust that their institution, to- I W. CHURCHILL I (From a photo by Lenuon Berry and Co., Aberdare.) gcther with its grand collection of books, should be transferred to the public at large. Therefore, it came about that the offer of £ 700 on the Conditions laid down by Mr Carnegie, was "declined with thanks." A person who considers money only of secondary importance is Mr Willliam Churchill, of Woodbine House, Penrhiwceiber, whose history of his restora- tion to health through Dr Williams pink pills for pale people, is as interesting as it is re- markable. When a correspondent of the "Aberdare Leader" called upon him the other evening, Mr Churchill, who is 24 years of age, and a sober, thrifty young man, showed no reluc- tance in disclosing the particulars of his mar- vellous cure. "Yes, I enjoy better health now than for a long time past," he remarked, "and I have no hesitation in attributing this to Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people. I was a sufferer from acute indigestion, which brought in its train excruciating pains across the back, sleeplessness at night, and a feeling of overwhelming weariness after getting up in the morning. ms would continue for several days and nights in succession." "I presume," interposed the reporter, "that you endeavoured to relieve your suffering by some means or other?" "Yes," was the reply; "but purgative medicine is worse than useless, all I took proved of no avail until one tay a booklet was brought to my notice relating to the mar- vellous cures effected by Dr Williams' pink pills to persons whom I well knew in Aber- dare and Pontypridd, whose symptoms largely coincided with my own Acting upon the ad- vice of friends, I sent for a couple of boxes of these pills. Before I had quite finished the second box they gave me such relief that I knew they were doing me good'. Another box, and there was a distinct and welome change in my health, while yet another brought back to me good, sound, refreshing sleep at night, which I so greatly needed. hang about me all day, troubled me no longer, and now you see how well and healthy I look The feeing of exhaustion, too, which used to and am."

Sir William Preece has been giving re- miniscences about the early days of the tele- phone. It was at the meeting of the British Association at Plymouth in 1877 that the first demonstration of the practicability of the telephone was made, the message being sent by Lord Kelvin, then Sir Wm. Thomson. At that meeting papers on the adaptability of electricity for such purposes were read by Mr Grahame Bell anl-Sir Wm. Preece, and the occasion was very memorable.

1 THE EDUCATION AC. MEETING OF WELSH MEMBERS. A special meeting of the Welsh Liberal Parliamentary party was held on Thursday evening in Committee-*K>m No. 7, House of Commons, under the presidency of Sir Alfred Thomas, to consider questions affecting the administration of the Educa- tion Act in Wales. The following members attended: Messrs Lloyd-George, Hum- phreys-Owen, J. H. Lewis, E. J. Griffith, I Bryn Roberts, F. Edwards, Abel Thomas, Lloyd Morgan, "V\. Abraham (Mabon), A. Davies, R. M.'Knina, Sir G. Newnes, and the two party secretaries, Messrs J. H. Roberts and Brynmor Jones. On the proposal of Mr Lloyd-George, seconded by Mr F. Edwards, it was, after discussion, unanimously resolved—"That in the opinion of the Welsh Liberal members it is desir- able that the voluntary school authorities in Wales should be approached with a view to effecting a friendly arrangement, so as to bring tho management of voluntary schools into line with that of the provided j schools; at the same time providing that the interests of religious education shall; be safeguarded on the lines of the syllabus: of some of the leading school boards, sup- pleinented by facilities, where demanded; by the parents, for special religious in-1 sti-uctloii (to be provided bv the denomimi- tion requiring it) on the colonial plan There is reaison to believe. that the resolu- tion, as adopted, is practically approved I by the leaders of the Opposition in the; I House. I OUTLINE OF WELSH POIJIC Sir Alfred Thomas, M.P., presic: A on Tuesday evening over a well-aciei ded meeting of the Liberal members for con- stituencies in Wales and Monmouthshire, called to consider the administration of the Education Act. The meeting adopted with slight amendments the report pre- sented by a sub-committee (consisting of Mr Lloyd George, Mr It. M'Kenna, Mr Humphreys-Owen, Mr Bryn Roberts, Mr Brynmor Jones, and Mr F. Edwards) ap- pointed to consider what action the Welsli Liberal members would desire to see adopted in Wales in regard to the admin- istration of the Act. The following are the terms of the report as adopted:- "The Education Act imposes on the County Councils, acting as the local edu- cation authority, the duty of maintaining and keeping efficient all public elementary r schools within their area, whether Board or Voluntary. But the local education authority has not the same means of secur- ing efficiency in the two classes of schools. The Act' gives the local education autho- rity full control over the management of the Board schools, but the management of the Voluntary schools is controlled by a majority of wholly independent founda- tion managers. In administering the Act the proceedings of the local education authority with regard to the Board schools offer no difficulty. A definite standard of efficiency can be set up. Managers can be appointed whose duty it will be to bring every school up to the standard, and who can be removed on any failure to perform their duty. The expenditure of the money necessary to be raised from the ratepayers can be fully controlled by the representa- tives of the ratepayers on the Council. "But with regard to the Voluntary schools the situation is different. The County Councils are representative bodies established by Parliament with power to levy rates upon the ratepayers within their area.. The right of the taxpayers to con- trol through their representatives the ex- penditure of the taxes has been success- fully asserted by the House of Commons through centuries of conflict with the Crown, and though based on no written law has been perpetually asserted as being inherent- in the principles of liberty on which the British Constitution is founded. When Parliament gave to the County Councils the power to levy rates it imposed upon them an implied duty to take and keep full responsibility for the expenditure of all money raised by them. The prin- ciple of public control of public money locallv raised for a local purpose is as im- portant in the constitution of the County Councils within their limited sphere of taxation and expenditure as is the analo- I gous principle of control of national nuance by the House of Commons. Now the Education Act imposes on the County Councils the duty of maintaining the Vol- untary schools in a state of efficiency and at the same time denies to the Councils the power of exercising full control over the expenditure of the money. Further, the Act imposes on the Councils the duty of securing efficiency in the Voluntary schools, and yet. gives the Councils no authority over the majority of the man- agers of those schools, that is, over the agents through whom efficiency is to be obtained. Thus Parliament, in a. new and unheard-of manner, has laid contradictory duties upon the County Councils, and has imposed upon them a responsibility with- out giving them the means of enforcing their will. "In the administration of the Act how are these inconsistent obligations to be fulfilled" It will probably be found that in the exercise of their duty to the rate- payers the County Councils will be obliged to content themselves with the standard of efficiency in Voluntary schools which has hitherto been declared sufficient by the Board of Education. In that event there will be no need to charge any part of the cost of the maintenance of these schools on the rates, as the increased grant from the Exchequer will cover the loss of volun- tary subscriptions. If such a solution be- comes necessary, it will be greatly to be deplored that the friends of the sectarian system should force the County Councils I to this procedure, though even in this case I it will be in the power of the local educa- tion authority to effect some improvement by. rigid insistence on the duty of the managers of the Voluntary schools to ren- der the buildings thoroughly suitable for school purposes and to put them in com- plete repair. "Happily, however, the new Act, coupled with the Act of 1870, contains the'means of remedying its own defects. An ar- rangement can bo made under section 2o cf the Act of 1870, by which the duties and objects of the local education authority and of the managers of Voluntary schools can be alike fulfilled. For the public authority public control of the schools is essential. On the other hand the school managers must be assured that religious instruction is safeguarded and that aeno- minational teaching, in accordance with the provisions of the trust deed, can be provided by the denomination for those children whose parents require it. A legal arrangement can be made which Will guarantee on either side these essential requisites. Surely it is reasonable to hope that the managers of Voluntary schools i, will rot allow sectarian differences to stand in the way of a, settlement so much in accord with public opinion. If this were done County Councils would obtain a real -== control over primary education, as they have now over secondary and higher edu- cation. On this basis a combination for joint action of all the Welsh County Coun- j cils would be framed, and thus there ) would be created in Wales through all the grades of education, including the training i of teachers, a single, unified, co-ordinated national system."

HOW DISEASE IS SPREAD. | Tho case of smallpox patient now under treatment at the Gwyrfai Smallpox Hoi*- pital throws an instructive side light on tho manner in which' smallpox may and probably is spread. The patient in the j present case is an itinerant tailor, who is supposed to have been infected in the j tramp ward at Rhayader, in Mid. Wales. He travelled subsequently through Mid. Wales, the counties of Radnor, Mont- gomery, Merioneth, and Carnarvonshire, mostly tramping by road, and occasionally getting work as a jobbing tailor. Bv the time he had reached Clynnog, the disease. had developed, and the s.-uiitary at)f r lies at once took prompt measures. In six hours after the discovery he was lodged in the infectious hospital, and a nurse, wired for from Liverpool, was there ready to deal with the case. But, meanwhile, in hew many localities and by how many suits cf clothes may the seeds of infection have been sown?

{ THE BONTNEWYDO j ORPHANAGE. A MUNIFICENT GIFT. I The trustees of the Orphanage at Bont- newydd, near Carnarvon, have received a cheque for £10,000 towards the mainten- ance of the institution. The donor is I officially described as "a gentleman who does not wish his, name to be made public," but he is understood to be Mr Robert ) Davie.s, of Bodlondeb, Menai Bridge. The < J money, which will be invested in consols, is intended for the upkeep of the institu- I tion, which, though originallv meant for r ¡ the reception of children of Calvinistic Methodists, will be open to children be- j. longing to other Nonconformist denomina- tions. The founder of the Orphanage is Mr R. B. Ellis, Bronant, near Carnarvon, a prominent member of the Calvinistic Jr Methodist Connexion, and he and other well-known Calvinistic Methodists form I the board of governors, at, whose meeting on Monday the receipt of the donation was formally announced. Mr Robert Davies, I who is a brother of the late Mr Richard I Davies, Lord Lieutenant of Anglesey, and at cne time M.P. for the county, has been known for many years as a most liberal benefactor. He has contributed largely towards liquidating debts upon Calvinistic Methodist chuichcs in different parts of Wales, more especially in Anglesey and Carnarvonshire, and he bore the expense of erecting a handsome English Presbyter- ian Chapel at Menai Bridge. For some years it has been his custom to distribute floui among the. poor of Anglesey and Car- narvonshire, and every Tuesday many poor people can be seen going along the high- way to Menai Bridge for the flour. Mr Davies by his munificent gift has set an example to other wealthy people in Wales.

A LOGICAL LUNATIC. One day Southey, the poet, chanced to meet in St. James's Park, a gentleman wh-otm he had not seen since they were students together, more than, forty years before. "And pray what have you been doing all these years?" inquired the poet. "Making mis- takes," replied his friend. "A very singular industry, that," remarked the poet. "Not at all; everybody is engaged in it. Most of our acts and more of our words are mistakes —blunders, errors, call them what you will so long as it signifies the thing what is not right. My servant says she lights a fire to boil the kettle, not that she makes a fire to boil the water. As if it were possible to light fire! True, kettles must be boiled, though I never knew of any to be so treated. When I left home, my wife asked me if I were going for a walk (as though she expected me to bring it back on my shoulder), not if I I were going to walk. As for material mis- takes, I married (disastrous blunder), and you, I hear, make the wretched mistake of I writing poetry. I read a little of it once. Bah!" Confounded by the peculiarity of the I man's discourse. Southey inquired concerning him and learned that he had been insane for years, but being considered harmless was allowed to walk unattended in the park. Mr William Taylor, of 15, Hanover street, Haverstock Hill, N.W., made the mistake of taking 17 half-crown bottles of a medicine which was useless for the cure of his com- plaint before he found the right remedy. "It was Mother Seigel's Cura-tive Syrup that saved my life three years ago," writes Mr Taylor, on 24th March, 1902. "A stifling sensation in the throat and chest, with diffi- culty in breathing, was followed by a gnaw- ing pa.in in the pit of the stomach. My 11 appetite was very poor, and I was always tired and weak. For two months a, doctor endeavoured to cure my indigestion and debility, but failed. Seventeen half-crown bottles of a certain patent medicine also fail- ing to relieve me, I became very despondent. II would toss al>CTit in bed at night for hours, unable to sleep was often seized with fits of trembling, and was in constant dread, of some impending evil. Such was my condition when J I was recommended to try Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. The first bottle of that medicine eased my incessant pain, and bv the time I had finished the third bottle I felt Iwell and strong. That was three years ago, Iand my health is still good."

BANGOR LIBERAL ASSO CIATION. j The annual meeting of the Bangor Liberal Association was held on Friday ,evening at the Arthur's Assembly Rooms, the retiring president (Dr. Evans, Bryn- kinallt), presiding. 1 CHAIRMAN'S ADDRESS. Dr. Evans, in the course of his address, stated that at the last general meeting it 11 was decided to place the Association on a sound financial footing, the first step in that direction being the enrolment of members, at a miminiuni fee of Is. Dr. Evans entered minutely into the work ac- complished, urging that every effort z_1 should be made to thoroughly organise the Association (hear, hear). THE SECRETARY'S REPORT. Sir. Pent-ir Williams, the secretary (who was absent owing to indisposition), in his annual report, read by Mr Lewis O. Jones, stated that the past year had been in many respects an apathetic one in t.he history of Bangor. In the first place the amount of the contributions to the party funds had been extremely small. What was noteworthy about the list of subscrib- ers was the absence of the names of several gentlement who owed their var- ious positions in public life to the influ- ence of the Liberal party. He never re- I membered so little interest being taken in registration work as last year. AVliether the Royal visit and the Eisteddfod drew attention from this necessary work, he could not say. Very few Liooflals felt aggrieved by being omitted from the list of voters and made claims. They did not secure a single lodger vote last year. This was not as it ehoild be. Many an election had been won at the previous revision courts, and it behoved them to see that no qualified Liberal was omitted from the register. He suggested that the ward representatives should look to this matter without delay, and make a note of all changes which: had happened since July 15th of last yeeiT, uid par- ticularly a list of all persons who would be qualified to be on the register on July loth this year. He thanked the pre- sident for the great interest he had shown in the work of the Association, and for tho assistance he had on all occasions given him. STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTS. According to the statement of accounts the deficiency on- the year's working was £ '17 2s 7d, compared with £ 16 3s lUi at the commencement of last. year. Commenting on the accounts, the Chairman regretted the absence from the list of subscribers of many old names. Mr. Matthew Hughes had done his collecting work very well, but the field of operations was much too large for one man to cover. The Associa- tion should be better organised. They could not expect those gentlemen who were identified with other public bodies in the city to work on behalf of the Associa- tion, but there were others. Only those willing to act should be nominated they did not want complimentary figure heads or dummies (laughter). They might or- ganise conferences, and the Education Act might with advantage be discussed— whether Bangor should control the work- ing of the Act in the city or join the county scheme.. It was their duty as LiberaLs to discuss such matters. He noticed two city councillors present that evening; he wished to tell them that he had no confidence in the committee ap- pointed by the City Council with regard to the At (laughter, and hear, hear). They did not knew everything, and the Association could offer them suggestions (hear, hear). ELECTION OF OFFICERS. Mr Evan Williams, Market Place, moved the re-election of Dr. Evans as pre- I sident, and Dr. Arnold. Rev. T. Gas- gome, and Mr E. D. Williams as vice-pre- sidents. ) The proposal was carried, and, on the moitifin of Mr R. W. Parry, seconded by Mr T. Edwards, Mr Evan Edwards (Messrs Robert Roberts &. Co.), was appointed I treasurer in place of Mr J. Evan Roberts, who regretted inability to continue in office, owing to pressure on his time. Mr" j Pentir Williams was re-elected secretary. J —The following new Executive Committee j was constituted, several old members be- j ing dropped owing to unsatisfactory at- tendance: North Ward: Messrs J. Bowen, Hope Davies, W. Humphreys, W. Eames, -and R. W. Pritchard. West | Ward: Messrs H. 0. Rowland, R. W. Parry, Evan Williams, Thomas Edwards, and Matthew Hughes, Caelleppa. South Waixl: Messrs Owen Owen. Thomas Owen, Dean street; George Eardley, Dean street; and Richard Williams, City Build- | ings. East Ward: Messrs William •Harvey, Hirael Post Office; William Griffith, Waierstreet.; John Hughes, Wil- liam street, a/ud John Humphreys, Gain- bier terrace. The following were -re- I | elected honorary .members: Messrs Henry Lewis, Dr E. O. Price, L. D. Jones, T. J. Williams, and Professor Lewis Jones. Explaining his absence from the meetings Explaining his absence from the meetings of the committee, Mr T. J. Williams said that during the past year he had attended i 113 committee meetings in connection with the City Council. He was sure that Mr. J. Eran Roberts had attended a larger number of meetings than that. THE LIBERAL SOCIAL COUNCIL. ( It was decided to invite three repro- sontatives of the Liberal Social Union, whose work was warmly eulogised by the Chairman, to attend the meetings of the Executive Committee of the Association. THE EDUCATION ACT. i The meeting proceeded to discuss the Education Act in relation to Bangor.— Professor J. M. Davies remarked that that evening the Bangor Free Church Council, on the moticfh of the Rev. T. J. Wheldon, had passed a resolution in favour of join- ing the county scheme. He himself thought it rather premature to pass a ro- solution on the subject, but it was desir- abie that tho Association, as representing the Liberals of the city, should expr«is an opinion.—Mr Thomas Edwards did not think they should be in a hurry. If they | amalgamated with the county they might. benefit, whilst if the City Council carried j out the provisions of the Act the rates might increase.—-Mr Evan Williams, Mar- ket. Place, suggested an adjournment of the meeting so that the matter, which wa^ of great importance, might be thoroughly ventilated. He complained that the mem- of the Junior Reform Club ha.d allowed nearly the whole of the winter to pass without discussing the subject- A fneeting, under the auspicas of the Club, held about two or three months ago, would have done immense good, as the city was j practically in the dark about the working oi; the Act. A social meeting of .the Association could be held, and invitations might be sent to the local county and city I councillors to attend—It was decided to I discuss the matter to-morrow (Friday). VOTE OF CONFIDENCE IN MR LLOYD GEORGE. Mr E. D. Williams. Music Warehouse, briefly proposed a vote of confidence in Mr. Lloyd George, M.P. In seconding, Professor J. M. Davies referred to tho ex- cellent work accomplished by their mem- ber in connection with the Education Bill. I No cloubt there were times when members of Parliament felt it an honour to repre- sent their coniti they in the I Carnarvon Boroughs, on the other hand, felt it was t311 .honour to be represented by a politician like Mr. Lloyd George (ap- I plause). The position of their member was a most enviable one (hear. hear). By this resolution they wished to testify1 to their profound admiration of Mr George for his admirable work on beha-lf of- for his admirable work on beha-lf of. | Liberalism (cheers).—The motion was car- ried with acclamation. 1 .Á

AN ANGLESEY PROBATE. CASE. I In the Probate Division of the High Court, on ALonday, before the President, Sir Francis I Jeune, an application was made for the ap- pointment of an administrator and receiver pendente lite, of the. estate of the late Dr Owen Henry Evans, of Bryngwyn, Llacidan, Anglesey. Mr Bryn Roberts, who made the applica tion, said there was an action pending for proving a qopy of a lost will of the deceased. Two actions had been consolidated, one by his client, the executor named in the will, and the other by the children, who asked for probate of the will with the omission of the name of his client as executor. Deceased was a doctor, and his property consisted of a house and farm of about 37 acres, worth about £ 4000, the furniture L3W, and t.he farming stock, wnich had been sold for £ 250. There was also a policy of insurance, i-nd some book debts. Mr Pritchard, on behalf of a sister of the deceased, opposed the application, as also did Mr Wallis for other parties interested. The President ordered the appointment of I an administrator and receiver pendente lite.
