i BANGOR ADJOURNED LICENSING SESSIONS. The adjourned licensing sessions for the C, Bangor division were held on Tuesday, be- fore a Bench consisting of Messrs T. Lewis (chairman), J. Evan Roberts, W. Pughe, Henry Lewis, T. Roberto, Robert Hughes, W. Bayne, George Rae, and the Rev W. Morgan (St. Ann's). THE BRITISH HOTEL TAPROOM. Mr S. R. Dew, on behalf of Mr Wheeler, applied for the re-opening of the tap of the British Hotel, Bangor. Mr Dew stated that of late the British Hotel had become the resort of carriages coming to the Bangor market. When the magistrates decided to clcse the tap the Castle Hotel tap was closed also by them, but there was not the slightest objection on the part of the public to the British Hotel tap. He did not think the houses could be compared, as their situation was so differ- ent. A great deal of prejudice had been imported into the case, but that always oc- curred when licensed victuallers sought to exercise their privileges. Apart from that prejudice there was no reason why Mr Wheeler should not be entitled to sell in all portions of the hotel which had been licensed. It was claimed that licensed bouses were a temptation. "Well," said Mr Dew. "atll milliners' eeta-blishmente should be closed, because the wares they exhibit lead women to extravagance which destroy homes :all over the world." Mr Wheeler, the (applicant, gave evidence that he was not aware of any objection against the tap. His landlord, Mr Farrar Roberts, had arranged that the ornamental grounds at the corner of the hotel should be removed so that the tap-room door might be seen from High street. The Bench, after a lengthy retirement, declined the application unanimously. The Chairman intimated that a number of petitions had been presented to the 'I Bench, but they were neither read nor dis- cussed, the applications being considered on their merits. their merits. THE CASTLE HOTEL TAP. Mr Oppe-nheim, of Liverpool, applied for the re-opening of the Castle Hotel tap, upon which he stated over £ 1000 had been spent. He remarked that the Castle Hotel was be- coming the headquarters of motorists "doing" North Wales, and said that the arguments which had been -advanceci in favour of re-opening the British Hotel tap applied with equal, if not greater force, to the 'Castle Hotel tap. The Bench declined the application. THE GLYiNCERRlS, TREBORTH. Mr H. C. Vincent stated that at the last Licensing Court his name was taken in vain in connection with the Glyncerris Inn, the A licensee declaring that he was not a party to the promise not to apply for the renewal of the license. Also that he (Mr Vincent) did not consult the licensee. He agreed that he did not consult the licensee very much because he was acting for Mr John Davies, Treborth, who had bought the house. He was aware that Mr John Davies had given notice to the licensee to quit the premises in the following May and the license expired on April 5th. Under these circumstances he did not think it necessary to consult the licensee. The renewal of the license was not applied for. VICTORIA INN, BETHESDA. On behalf of the police, Mr S. R. Dew ob- jected to the renewal of the license of the Victoria Inn, Bethesda. on the ground that the licensee had been fined for permitting drunkenness upon his premises. I Sergeant Rowlands, cross-examined by Mr Lloyd" Carter, who represented the licensee, gaid that, apart from the conviction, the I house had been conducted to h:s satisfaction. Mr Carter said that Mrs Green had paid £ 140 to go into the Victoria out of her own monev. It was stated that the small window of the hotel, which was in the market hall, had been closed. The Bench unanimously renewed the license. LICENSED, BUT NO TRADE. Mr S R. Dew, for the police, objected to the renewal of the Vaynol Arms, High street, Bangor. 11rs Pritchard. the holder of the license, was not present. Mr Elias Owen, her nephew, stating tiiat she was confined to her room. Mr Dew said that the circumstances were I peculiar and unusual. The Vaynol Arms had been licensed twenty years ago. and business I had been carried on there, but for the l,ast fifteen years the license had been renewed, and no drink had been sold in the house. The magistrates had annually granted a certificate of renewal of the license for the last fifteen years, but notwithstanding that certificate no excise license had ever been ap- plied for by Mrs Pritchard in order that the premises might be utibsed for the sale of in- toxicating liquor, and he (Mr Dew) therefore, approhr-iidod that it was not thp best possible I evidence (the fact that the certificate of the Bench had not been acted upon) that the I house was not required for the needs of the public. But, apart from that, it was alleged that this house was not structurally adapted for a licensed premises. It was important to call attention to that, in v'ew of compensa- tion but as the licensee had not exercsed her privileges for the last, fifteen years, it was not a case for compensation, as there was practically no value in the license and no- thing had been paid to the excise for a period of fifteen years in respect of the premises. On the question of whether the premises were structurally deficient, he asked them to con- sider the premises as they existed, and to re- member that fifteen years, when trade was conducted there, the magistrates were not so careful as they were at present. Part of the premises consisted of a butcher's shop, and at the bottom of the yard there was a slaughter-house. The Bench declined to renew the license, because the premises were not structurally adapted for a licensed house. THE KING'S HEAD, BANGOR. Mr H. C. Vincent applied for the renewal of the license of the King's Head, Bangor, I to which the police, represented by Mr S. R. Dew. objected, because the licensee had been fined for drunkenness. Mr Vincent, pointing out that the ob- Mr Vincent, pointing out that the ob- jection was a personal one, and had no- thing whatever to do with the conduct of the house, said that the licensee's wife was prepared to look after the house, and the license might be transferred to her. The Chairman What position would Mr Williams., the licensee, be in then? Mr Vincent In the position of a great many husbands. I'm afraid (loud laughter). She would be the better-half. The Chairman said that in the opinion cf the magistrates Owen Williams would still

FRESII AIR AND -SUNSHINE. A DOCTOR'S SANITARY GOSPEL. Dr Hugh Jones, medica.1 officer of health at Dolgelley, in his annual report; says:— "During the year consumption was the cause of forr deaths. It is some satisfaction to note that this disease has not made quite the same havoc as in 1903, but it still claims too many victims, and it is therefore neces- sary that something should be done to lessen this annual slaughter. The most potent fac- tor in maintaining our high death-rate from all diseases of a consumptive character is the small, badly-ventilated dwelling-house. If the inhabitants of these small dwellings would only use the limited means at their dis- posal of letting fresh air and sunshine into their rooms by opening doors and windows, and the latter particularly at night, there j would be less of this scourge of consumption ) in our midst very soon. People seem to have a dread of fresh air, and do all they can to keep it cut of their houses, forgetting that pure air and sunshine are among the best of God's f1',>0 gifts to mankind. "1 despair of carrying this conviction home to the minds of the older generation, and I feel that wo must look to education to save children from these erroneous and mischiev- ous ideas. I welcome the movement amongst my own profession to make temperance and hygiene compulsory subjects of elementary education as about the most effective force for diminishing the phthisis death rate. By teaching children the value of pure air and a properly constituted diet more will be done to prevent physical degeneration than we can conceive at present, so that those damaged constitutions which fall such easy prey to the germs of consumption will be much reduced in number, and this dangerous seed will, not so readily íbel a suitable soil upon which to grow."

SUMMONS ON A LAMP-POST. A! the Carnarvon Police Court on Monday, the Mayor (Alderman Lake) presiding, Richard John Titus, a cripple, who must have attracted the attention of visitors to the town owing to his having to crawl about on his knees while selling oranges, was charged with obstructing the footpath near Christ Church, and refusing to move when asked to do so. The defendant, who was very voluble, said that a magistrate had told him not to quit the "stand" he had taken up until he got a summons, :ind he added that Mr Edward Hughes (who sat on the bench) had given him permission to stay there. Mr Hughes said that he did nothing of the kind. The Magistrrtte¡; Clerk told the Court that the defendant on Saturday, in order to win the sympathy of passers-by. fastened his summons to a lamp post. The Bench fined him 10s and costs, which, however, would not be enforced unless he persisted in obstructing the footpath. The Defendant Shall 1 be allowed to go there? I am only trying to earn a living. Mr Kinsley, the photographer, pays a guinea for the ground, and he told me to go there regu- larly. You had better ask him all of you. I he Mayor said that there were other ob- structionists who should be proceeded against. Supt. Griffith remarked that there would be no difficulty in dealing with them now that the defendant had been convicted. Titus was subsequently seen exhibiting the summons to people in the street.

BANGOR TAILORS AT DINNER. A SUCCESSFUL SOCIETY. The members of the Bangor branch of the AmaJgamated Society of Tailors met at the City Hotel on Tuesday for the sixth annual dinner, there being a large muster present. The president was Col. H. Savage, V.D., and the vice-presidents were Mr J. Cumming, Alderman W. P. Matthews, CouncilIorTE. O. Price, Dr Grey Edwards, Mr E. R. Davies (Normal College), Councillor David Owen, Mr T. Vallanc-e, Mr Tegarty, Councillor E. I O. Thomas. Mr Andrew Hughes, Mr Garth, Mr Ballantyne, Mr W. Price Smith, Mr J. I Lawless, and Mr J. Evans. In the unavoidable absence of the presi- I dent, Mr W. Price Smith ably fulfilled the duties of chairman, and, at the close of a i well-served dinner, proposed the loyal toasts, j To Mr S. H. D. Dew was entrusted the t toast of "The Immortal Memory of St. I David." and, commencing with a poetical eulogium of the patron saint, he referred to the influence for good which St. David exercised at a time when civil wars, persecu- I tions, and troubles of all sorts were affecting the people, and when they held a faith which was opposed to Christianity. It was only by great persuasion that St. David was drawn from the seclusion of his monastery to fight against the un-Christian doctrine which the people espoused. In St. David's character they found some of the finest attributes of manhood (hear, hear). He wa.s honoured by the Pope of Rome, by whom he was canon- ised. It would have been impossible for any- body to do greater service for his country (hear, bear). He fougnt against a form of doctrine which was detrimental to the people and Christianity (hear, hear). The toast was drunk in silence. "The Army. Navy, and Auxiliary Forces" was submitted by Mr E. R. Davies, Normal College, who had a sly dig at Russia in the course of a most interesting speech. He re- marked that where soldiers were masters they were not of much service. The inimitable Mr Martin Duggan re, sponded. He expressed unfeigned surprise that all the physically-fit young men of Ban- gor (not the bottle-shouldered persons) had not joined the Volunteers. Proposing the toast of the evening, "The Amalgamated Society of Tailors," Mr W. Tegarty endeavoured to demonstrate the analogy between the organisations of the teachers and that of the tailors, and dropping into a humorous vein he remarked that both worked with "boards." It was said that it took nine tailors to make a man. but, with the aid of such organisations as they pos- sessed, it would soon take nine men to make a tailor (hear, hear, and laughter). Mr Tegarty paid a compliment to Mr Griffith Owen. who was the only representative of Wales on the Executive Committee of the Society and also to Mr Evans, the president of the local branch. Responding to the toast, Mr Griffith Owen. a member of the Executive Committee, said that as an organisation they were so governed and the rules were so framed so as to pre- vent their going into disputes in a haphazard way, and they exercised every possible pre- caution before resorting to strikes. As a society they believed in arbitration and con- ciliation boards which, in large towns, were very valuable. The society had dispensed with a good deal of sentimental folly in grant- ing relief, but in one thing they stood unique --they possessed an infectious disease benefit. He was glad to say that their relations with their employers were of a most cordial character—(hear, hear)—and all they now desired was a revival in trade. Mr Evans, the president of the local branch, also responded, and remarked that the tailors were the only body of men in the city who were trade unionists. They pos- sessed an. average membership of one hun- dred. Ia giving the "City and Trade of Bangor," Mr Richard Griffith said that they as citizens knew but very little of their ancient city. For instance, Penchwintan was generally thousj'it to be the initial point of a big fire, but it was really the place where a "footing stone" existed, a place where people mounted their horses. Also Siliwen was derived from the name of a lady named Sylwen, who lived in Anglesey, and who landed where the baths now exist when she attended the Cathedral. Mr Griffith said that it was high time for them as workmen and tradesmen to take into their serious consideration whether the, should not make every effort to keep the trade in the town, and they must also con- sider the question of the pirates coming into the trade (hear, hear). Councillor David Owen, in responding, said that the location of the Colleges in the city had certainly added to its possibilities uud prestige. It was unfortunate that the g increase in the rates came at a time when they could very ill afford it, but, judging from the best data. he could get, they had now reached the high water mark in the matter of rates. Two schemes, which, be it remembered, had been sanctioned by the ratepayers, had cost no less than CG0.000, and neither of them had as yet paid its way. There was one consolation, that the money would be cleared off in twenty-five years. In conclusion. Mr Owen hoped that when the new University College was erected the local branch of tailors would be in a position to endow a chair in tailoring at the college (louH cheers). Mr Cumming also responded in a very optimistic speech, but admitted that, like all other trades in the city, the tailoring trade had suffered of late. Mr R. S. Jones proposed "The President." and Mr J. Griffiths "The Vice-Presidents," and Mr J. P. Jones, who had charge of the secretarial arrangements, gave "The Hostess," to which Councillor D. Owen re- sponded on behalf of Mrs Owen. The proceedings were enlivened with songs and recitations contributed by Messrs H. T. Jones, D. Jenkins, R. S. Jones. J. P. Jones. and Fred Goode, and Mr Ivor Thomas played a pianoforte solo with much ability. Letters apologising for non-attendance were read from Mr R. A. Naylor, Dr Grey Edwards, and Mr E. O. Thomas.

From the end of the year 1901 to the middle of 1902 I was under treat- ment by one of the best doctor* in Great Britain, through whom I derive-d strength in several ways, but still the Germs remained and were doing tlbeir work. I also consulted Specialists. In June, 1902, I was (through tlie kindness of Arthur Chamberlain, Esq., Birmingham) sent to the Ventoor Consumptive Hospital, Isle of Wightb, where for 10 weeks I under- went the Open-Air Treatment. I felt a little better at the start, bat on returning to Wales and fiiidSng that my left lung was still affected I realised in a. few weeks that I bad gone back to the old state; I could not lie at all on mv left side, the Pains Continued, and the PJdegming was very bad whilst I oould not walk upstairs.

the influenza was rather bad in the town at the time, but he did not think it was bad enough to close the school. — Mr Burnell: It was much worse two or three weeks before the school was closed, than when the order came to close the school.— Dr Gladstone Jones disagreed with Dr Davies that it was only a mild outbreak of influenza. He had never seen so many complications as during the last outbreak. He 'Dr Jones) did not inform Dr Fraser of the outbreak. The only thing he did was to sign a notice the surveyor gave him, and he di-d so, as he thought it was a matter affecting the public health. The order was to be signed by two members of ¡' the Council. — Mr T. Eurnell said the school was closed when there was no need ¡ to do so. He inquired who supplied the in- formation of the prevelence of the influenza to Dr Fraser. — Mr W. Watkin said that information might have been sent by a pri- I vate individual. If Dr Fraser acted upon such information the school would lose the grants. They ought to try to find out who sent the information. The Surveyor, in answer to a question, said he did not send the information; but he received the letter from Dr Fraser requesting the schools to be closed. WORKMEN'S DWELLINGS. Mr W. R. Hughes. in accordance with notice, moved that the Council give power to a special committee to take the question of workingmen's dwellings into considera- tion.—Mr Robert. Davies seconded.—Mr T. Burnell thought that the question should net be shelved altogether.—The 'Clerk ex- plained that the next step for the committee would be to formulate a scheme and com- plete the estimates, &c., to be submitted to the Local Government Board, and apply fcr a- loan.—Mr J. W. Roberts thought it would not be advantageous to the town to go on with the scheme at present, and he 1 proposed that, it be dropped. — Mr T. J. Williams said he thought the case had not been made out. there being many things against the scheme, but he would not like it° to be shelved for good. He did not think workmen's dwellings were needed at I. present, and he believed they would not, if erected, be tenanted by the class of people thev were intended for. — Mr T. Burnell thou«ht tluat tlie matter should be left open. After further discussion, the amendment was carried. WATER SUPPLY. WATER SUPPLY. Mr W.

be the master of the house, even if the license were not renewed to him. The Bench was, therefore, prepared to renew the license to Owen Williams, but they warned him to keep away from drink. CAMBRIA INN, BANGOR. The license of this house, applied for by Mr Bayliss, was renewed, conditionally upou the wall at the back, which adjoins the foot- ball field, beins; raised. — The owner (Mr Clews) asked that iron railings might be placed there instead of a wall, which inter- fered with the light, but the Bench insisted upon a wall. REPAIRS CARRIED OUT. The sanitary improvements having been onvT'.tl .tf as the Bench required, the licenses of the White Lion Inn, Bangor, and the King's Arms, Bangor, were renewed. BACK-DOOR OBJECTED TO. The police objected to the renewal of the license of the Marquis Inn. Glanadda, on the ground of the back-dcor trade which was carried on there. Mr S. R. Dew, representing the licensee, contended that the back-door was capable of police supervision, and was a great con- venience to the residents of the houses at the back of the inn. P.C. Hugh Williams. Glanadda. said that he had no difficulty in supervising the back- door. The business of the inn was carried on satisfactorily. There was as much trade through the back-door as through the front. Mr Henry Lewis asked the licensee through which door most of his customers entered the inn. The Licensee: Through the back in the day-time. Bv a majority, the Bench allowed the back- door to be used, but the Chairman pointed out that there was a strong minority in favour of the door being closed.
