JTHE TRAINING OF TEACHERS.
J THE TRAINING OF TEACHERS. j NEW "P.T." REGULATIONS. i Tb« Welsh Department of the Board of Education has issured the new regulations for the preliminary education of elementary school teachers. These deal with pupil teacher, bursary, and student teacher re- gulations, and come into force on August j 1st next. These regulations are similar to j those issued for England in April last, and are to be applied, in addition to Wales, to the county of Monmouth and the county borough of Newport. EXIT THE P.T.—2NTER THE BURSAR. The new provisions for giving preliminary education to boys and girls who intend to become tmclicrs in elementary schools axe regarded by the Board of Education as im- portant and as likely to prove of special bepfit to Wales. 'A local education authority may recom- mend for approval as bursars boys or girls who intend to become elementary school teachers and are attending full time at a recognised secondary school, but require assistance in order to render their con- tinuance at the school financially possible. The period of recognition of a bursar will be for one year only, and will coincide with the school year of the secondary school in which he is educated. Application for admission must be made at least a month before the beginning of the school year. Recognition of a bursar will be subject to the fultilment of certain condi.tlü¡¡"" among which are the following:—Candidates must not. he Less than 16 nor more than 18 on the first day of the period of recognition, and mast sign a declaration of his bona fide in- tent'on to become a teacher in the public elementary school, this declaration being also signed by his parent or guardian and countersign&d by the headmaster or head- mistress of the secondary school, and by the local education authority. The local education authority must satisfy the Beard that tliej-e will be provided for the candidate either education fre,e of fees at a secondary school during the period of the bursarship, or such education together with the main- tenance allowance of not less in value than E5 for the yea.r. The candidate must have been oOducated in a recognised secondary school for the two years immediately be- fore the period of recognition. zl- For a bursary beginning on 1st August, 1907, or on the 1st August, 1908, the Board may accept a candidate who has been em- ployed as a pupil teacher ainder Article 5 of these regulations between the ages of 15 asid J6 and has been educated at a secondary school. Such candidates, however, will not hoe accepted in consequent years. If the candidate has not ^already passed an exami- nation qualifying him for admission to a training college, the headmaster or mistress of the secondary school must certify that his attainments are such that he may reasonably be expected to pass such an exa- mination during the course of the year. At the end of his year of recognition a. bursar may eitlier enter a training college for ele- mentary school teachers or become for a y"ar aj 6tuoorut.te8icher in an area, in which tlh, local education authority has brought into operation a scheme approved by the Board of Education, for the supervision of student-teachers. A person who was a bur- sar will be admissible to a training college if he ia over 17 years of age on August 1st in the year of admission. A person who has been a bursar will not be recognised by the Board as an uncertificated teacher, even if he is above the arge of 18, unless he has either ibeen for at least a, year in a training college or been employed for a year as a student-teacher. A grant of £ 10 on account of easch bursar, increased by £ 5, or by half the amount of the maintenance allowance (whichever may be the less), on account of each bursar re- ceiving a maintenance allowance, will be paid to or through the local education authority to whom such 'bursar was recom- mended for recognition by the Board in aid cf the education and maintenance of bursars in the area of the authority, subject to cer- tain conditions. One is that the bursar must have passed the preliminary examina- tion for the elementary school teachers' certificate or soime other examination qualifying him for entrance to a training coll,eg.e either before or within two years after the first day of his period of recogni- tion aig a bursar. A bursar will be admis- sible to the preliminary examination for the certificate during his year of recognition as such. The bursar must have subsequently either entered a training collage and signed the training college declaration or com- pLeted (1, year of satisfactory service as a student-teacher in a public elementary school. A special grant on account of each bur- sar recognised as from 1st August, 1907, or 1st January, 1908, will be paid to the local education authority in aid of the initial ex- penses of introducing a system whereby persons who intend to become teachers in public elementary schools shall receive edu- cation as bursars instead of being employed and instructed as pupil teachers. The amount of this grant will depend upon the total number of bursars for whose recog- nition application is jnade, and on Ule sums at the disposal of the Board for this purpose, but it will not be less than 95 or more than £ 10. This grant will not be re- peated after the year beginning August 1st next. A griant calculated at the rate of 92 upon each bursar will be paid to the local education authority, by whom he is recommended on account of every bursar ordinarily resident in the area for the pur- poses of elementary education of a County Council. These grants will be in aid of the general travelling and other incidental ex- penses of bursars. If the governors of a secondary school have .arranged with a uni- versity to hold 0. leaving examination for buisars of not less than matriculation standard by means of papers set in accord- ance with the school curriculum, and if the subjects and the standard of the examina- tion and the scaLe of fees are regarded: by the Beard as suitable for bursars, a grant in aid of the examination fees will be paid to the school. The amount of this grant will not be in excess of L2 for each bursar examined. A local education authority, which has brought into operation a scheme approved by the Board for the supervision of student teachers and for training of them in the art of teaching, may recommend a. student- teacher for approval by the Board as part of the staff of a public elementary school, subject to the conditions specified in Articles 36 and 42. The recognition of a student- teacher will be for one- year, but may be continued for a second1 year with the appro- val of the Board'. The- candidate must on the first day of the period of recognition be over 17, and must during the. period im- mediately preceding the period of recogni- tion, either have been a bursar recognised undier these regulations, or have been in regular attendance for not less than two years at a recognised secondary school. The candidate must have parsed the pro JimlTIRry examination for the elementary school teachers' certificate, or some other examination accepted by the Board 8.> a qualification for admission to a training collepre. A student-teacher must be em- ployed in a public elementary school selected with the approval of the Board as suitable for the purpose during not more than eight meetings in any one week, and rrnwt obtain practical experience in the art of teaching, together with such further general education as may be available, to 's the satisfaction of an inspector of" the Board,

DRUNKENNESS.—Superintendent Harris charged John Williams, Cilfoden, Bethesda, with being drunk and disorderly.—P.C. 68 proved the case, and the defendant was fined 10s and costs. ALLEGED NEGLECT. — Owen Jon s, Bethesda, who had been working at South Wales, was brought up, in custody, charged with neglecting his wife, Mary Jones, and two children, whereby they became charge- able to the Bangor Union.—Mr R. B. Evans (Clerk to the Guardians) appeared for the proseaution, and Mr Twigge Ellis, Bethesda, lor the defendant.—Mary Jones gave evi- dence, and said that she was married to the defendant at Bangor on December 11th, 1899. She had two children. Last October they went to South Wales, and lived at Dowl ais. He would not work there. He I once came to the house and kicked one of the children. She eventually went to the workhouse, because she had no food in the house. — Cross-examined Her husband w. :it down to South Wales to look for work, and he had work there. Shortly after going there he was arrested on a committal war- rant of the County Court. He spent a month in prison at Swansea. She had no furniture to pawn. She lived in apartments with a man named John Williams. They were very comfortable apartments. She left her husband there, and went to look for food. She told her husband, before leaving him, that she was not going to stay with him to starve.—Owen Williams (Master of the Bangor Workhouse) gave evidence as to the wife and children's custody at the workhouse.—The Defendant gave evidence, and said that he went to South Wales, and obtained work in a coal-pit. It was not true that, he spent his money on drink. He had never spent a penny on drink. After having been in prison, he found that his wife had left, and there was nothing in the house for him. He went to look for her, and alter wards found her. She left him afterwards, and he lost five days' work in looking for her. He lost constant work in consequence of his going to look for her. He found that his wife had been with a man named William Jones. He did not know that his wife was at the Bangor Work- house until he was arrested on Sunday. He had not refused to live with his wife.—Cross- examined He was summoned to appear at the Court at Aberdare on 5th March last, but he had not appeared. That was not the reason why he came up to North Wales. He could not read, and, therefore, did not understand the summons.—Mr Twigge Ellis, for the defence, said that there was no evi- dence that the defendant had left his wife. She had deserted him. He had provi led comfortable apartments for her, but &he had left him of her own accord, and the man ought to be more pitied than punished. He asked, under the circumstances, that the case should be dismissed. — The Defendant said that lie would be prepared to keep his wife is she would go back to live with him. —The wife was willing to go back to live with her husband.—The case was adjourned for a month. DRUNKENNESS.—Michael Duffy, Iiyffin square, who gave his name as "John Wil- Iiams;" was charged with being drunk.

The defendant gave him the name of ''John Wilhame, of 3, Rathbone street; but he could/ not find the de- fen chin t there.

The Bench inflicted a fine of 10s and costs. — Hugh Hughes, Glanmeurig, Beth- esda, was charged with being drunk.

Davies, Glanadda, was finoed 2s 6d and coats for a similar offence. P.C. 55 proved tne case—David Rowlands, 72 years of age, was charged with being drunk (P.C. 48), and admitted the offence.

The Bench fined him 2s 6d and costs in the fint ease, and 5s in the second caee, and bound him over in the sum of k5 to keep the peace for six months. — James Rowlands, Glanadda, was summoned by P.C. 25 for being drunk, and was fined 2s 6d and costs. —P.C. 24 also charged Robert Owen, Ban- gor, with drunkenness. The defendant was fined 2s Gd and costs. NO DOG LICENSE. — Richard Owen, Cilm,elyn Farm, Pcnrhos, was charged by H. F. Pugh (Inland Revenue Officer) with keep- ing a dog without a license.—P.C. 18 gave evidence, and proved the case.—A fine of 28 6d and costs was imposed. MOTOR CAR CASE. W. Woodhead, Tudor Lodge, Canonbury place, Canonbury, N., was charged by Superintendent Harris with driving a motor car to the danger of the public.—Mr Rum&ey Williams appeared for the defendant, who did not appear.— P.C. 25 gave evidence, and said that he saw a motor car coming along from the direction of Glanadda, on the day in question, at a very fast pace, and at the danger of the public. The number of the car was "L. M. 862." He had se-en the car before that morning. He shouted to the driver to stop, but he took no notice. After going along under the bridge, one of those in the car got up and looked behind.

Read the actual words of two people who attribute their splendid health" entirely to Dr Wil- liams' Pink Pills for Pale People.
An Employer.
An Employer. Mr W. G. Davies, proprietor of the New Inn Hotel, Radford road, Nottingham, states:—"For months my blood seemed starved; I could not eat, for the least morsel brought an acute indigestion. I felt tired, weak and depressed, and could only sleep by fits and starts. My nerves were completely 'run down.' I took Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and in a little while improved wonderfully. I slept well, the pains of indigestion dis- appeared and soon I was strong and healthy again."
An Employee.
An Employee. Miss Nellie Baddeley, of 197, Farm street, Birmingham, states:—"Specialists said mine was a most aggravated case of anaemia. I scarcely care to recollect the sufferings I experienced. Food of all kinds was repug- nant, my limbs were weak and trembled ex- ceedingly. I was sallow, dizzy, and fre- quently sick. I was fourteen weeks in hospital, but withered away to a skeleton. Medicine did me little good until I took Dr "VS illiams' Pink Pills for Pale People. In a few weeks I was restored to health; my app,etit-e returned; I regained all my lost strength and obtained a position with a firm of electrical engineers."

I EDUCATION POLICY.
EDUCATION POLICY. MR D. A. THOMAS ASKS QUESTIONS. I CARNARVONSHIRE SCHOOLS AND THE RATES. On Monday, Mr D. A. Thomas in the House of Commons asked the President of the Board of Education whether his atten- tion had been called to the proceedings at the last. monthly meeting of the Flintshire Education Committee, during which it was authoritatively stated that of the increase in the education rate for the currant year a large proportion, amounting to over £ 3,000, was due to the cost of maintenance of volun- tary or non-provided schools, and if he would inquire into the cause of the increased ex- penditure? Mr MeKonna's answer was as follows:- The answer to the first part of the question itS in the negative. In reply to the second part, any inquiry into the legality of ex- penditure by a local education authority is a matter for the. district auditor. Mr Thomas also asked the President of the Board of Education whether his attention had been dru.wn to the fact that the expendi- ture by the County Council on the mainten- ance of nnn-provided school in Carnarvon- shire exoeeued the Government grants re- ceived in respect of such schools by over £ 4,000 in the year ending 31st March. 1905, and by over £ ^,000 in the year ending 31st March, 1906, whether these deficits were. provided for out of the rate*, and if not, now were they met?

,CRICCIETH URBAN COUNCIL.
CRICCIETH URBAN COUNCIL. THE CHANNEL FLEET ASKED TO ANCHOR IN CRICCIETH BAY. The monthly meeting of the Council was held on Monday evening, Dr H. Gladstone Jones (Chairman) presiding. There were present Messrs J. T. Jones, W. R. Hughes, T. Burnell, T. G.Williams, Evan Hughes, W. Watkin, Hugh Griffith, D. O. Price, Captain G. Drage, Messrs D. M. Williams, W. Pughe Jones, and J. R. Humphreys, with the Clerk (Mr Thomas Jones), the Assistant Clerk (Mr Isaac Davies), and the Surveyor (Mr Morris Williams). GENERAL BOOTH. The Clerk stated that Brigadier Hillier of the Salvation Army, called to see him that morning in reference to a suggestion that General Booth should be given a wel- come when passing through Criccieth on his motor tour on August 5th. The Clerk explained that it had been dec-idecl to pre- sent an address to General Booth at Pwll- heli; and' that at Portmadcc also a public welcome will be accorded the General. It was agreed that the Chairman should convene a public meeting to consider what steps should be taken in the matter. INSURANCE. On the recommendation of the Finance Committee, it was resolved that an insurance policy be taken* out to cover the Council's liabilities under the new Workmen's Com- pensation. COUNCIL'S WORKMEN. On the motion of Mr W. Watkin it was resolved that the wages of Council's work- men should be paid fortnightly in future.- David Pritchard, Glan'rafon, was appointed an extra workman for the Summer season. DWYFOR FOOTPATH. On the recommendation of the Roads Com- mittee, it was resolved that representatives of the Council should meet representatives of the Lkinystumdwy Parish Council to con- sider the question of the Dwyfor Footpath. —Mr W. R. Hughes and Mr W. Watkin were appointed representatives of the Coun- cil. THE CHANNEL FLEET. It wa-s reported at the General Purposes Committee that Mr J. E. Greaves had agreed to call at the Admiralty to see whether it could be arranged for the Channel Fleet, during their cruise, to anchor in the bay, opposite Criccieth.—The Secretary to the Admiralty wrote stating that the Council's suggestion with regard to the fleet had been referred to the Admiral commanding the Channel Fleet. The letter also stated that H.M.S. "Cnrnawrm" -J"" will not be in the neighbourhood of Carnar- vonshire during the present summer. DINAS PATH. The General Purposes Committee recom- mended that the Council should re-con- sider the question of fencing Dinas Path. The committee felt that fencing this path was a much needed improvement. — The matter was referred back to the committee. STRAY ANIMALS. Mr D. M. Williams protested against allowing persons to turn their animals to certain open spaces in the town. His pro- perty near the castle had suffered some damage owing to horses and donkeys being allowed to stray. — The Surveyor t-aid the Council some time ago gave permission to several persons to turn their animals to graze at certain open spaces during day time. He had warned some of the persons referred to for allowing their animals to stf.fy, and one man had dis-regarded his warnings. It was riesolved to issue a summons against the particular offender. THE WATER COMMITTEE. Captain H. Griffith, in accordance with a notice, given, moved "That the Water Com- mittee do report progress on the water question to the Council, and that the com- mittee's chairman be required to answer any proper question put to him relating thereto." Captain Griffith thought it wouldi facilitate matters in connection with the water works#? the members of the Council knew what was being done. Captain Drage seconded, and remarked that as a new member of the Council, he should be glad to know what progress was being made in connection with the works, and what was the position of the Council. Mr T. Burnell referred to the Standing Orders, which stated. that every committee was to report its proceedings to the Council. Captain Griffith observed that there were several members of the Council who were ignorant of the Council's position regarding the water question; and at the last election he had been questioned about the matter, and he had to admit that he could not reply to the enquiries. Mr J. T. Jones (chairman of the Water Committee) said he was not surprised that Captain Drage asked for information re- garding the water question because he was only a new member of the 'Council. He could get every information in the commit- tee and as to Captain Griffith, he ought to know very well as one who had been a mem- ber of the Council for some years, that matters relating to the water works were discussed in committee, and that each mem- ber of the Council had a perfect right to inspect the minutes. Captain Griffith showed that he was ignorant of his duties. He (Mr Jones) never refused to answer any reasonable question concerning the water works, but he must point out that he was tied by the committee's resolution to a cer- tain extent. Mr W. Pughe Jones thought that the re- ports of the Water Committee were always presented to the Council in the same way as the reports of every other committee. The Chairman said that that was so, and he ruled the first portion of the motion out of order. Mr J. T. Jones: It is all out of order. The Chairman therefore ruled the motion out of order. CONGRATULATIONS. On the motion of the Chairman, the Council congratulated the Deputy-Clerk (Mr John Humphreys) on the occasion of his recent, marriage.—On the motion of Mr D. O. Price, the Council also passed a vote of congratulation with Dr D. Livingstone Davies (ex-member of the Council) on his promotion as a, justice of the peace for the county. SYMPATHY. The General Purposes Committee passed a vote of sympathy with Councillor J. S. Griffith, who had met with a serious acci- dent.

ABERYSTWYTH C.M. COLLEGE.
ABERYSTWYTH C.M. COLLEGE. The annual meeting of the Calvinistic ij.st College, Aberyst.wj'th, last week, was presided over by the Rev John Morgan Jones, Cardiff. Principal Prys, in his report of the work of the pa-st year, said he could not refrain from expressing their deep gratitude to the P]a.;dinam family, who, by their munificence, had so comfortably and almost luxuriously housed them at Aberytwytli. Speaking of the large number of young men, close upon 100, who were preparing for admission to the college, the principal said that unless a large proportion of these. created spheres of labour for themselves—and there was still plenty of room for that—they would very noon as a connexion be faced with very serious diffi- culties. As far as he could see, the needs of their church at present and in the imme- diate future would be supplied by the ad- mission of ten to twelve students annually.
«a——^» "THAT TIRED FEELING."
«a——^» "THAT TIRED FEELING." IMPORTANT ADVICE TO THE AILING. Enervating weather upsets the system ar,d gives rise to "that tired feeling." The Hard- working housewife, although she may feel wearv and worn-out cannot neglect her duties in the home. The toiling husband has also to try and work off his sick head- ache, bilious attack, or general debility. At this season many of us are liable to suffer from sickness, lassitude, and depres- sion, which very often, unless taken in hand at once, are forerunners of serious illness. A natural tonic-laxative for the stomach and liver is the surest iaiid safest remedy and there is no comparison between Chas. Forde's Bile Beans and ordinary pills sold at a lower price. Your health is a serious matter; and only the genuine reputable medicin,g can eb relied upon to produce in your case the best and most permanent im- provement— a result far outweighing the possibly slightly increased cost per box. Charles Forde's Bile Beans are a family medicine of proved superiority for young and old. No household should ever be with- out a haaidy onoe-and-three-halfpenny or two-and-nine box.
MR LLOYD GEORGE ON "TUBES."
MR LLOYD GEORGE ON "TUBES." SOLVING THE HOUSING QUESTION. Mr Lloyd George on Saturday opened a new underground railway from Charing Cross to Golder's Green. The right hon. gentleman started the train by turning the controller with, a gold key, and a distin- guished company of members of both Houses of Parliament, with well-known electrical and other engineers, travelled to Golder's Green, where they were entertained at lunch. Speaking at the subsequent luncheon, Mr Lloyd George said he hoped this was not the very last tube which London was going to see. Each successive experiment marked an improvement, and of the Hampstead tube Colonel Yorke, of the Board of Trade, spoke in the highest possible terms from the points of view of engineering and the comfort and security of the public (applause). It was a wonder to him when he thought what the underground railways did for the traffic of London how London could have got on with- out them years ago. Last year more than 240,000,000 passengers were carried on the electric underground railways of London. It was only a comparatively few years ago that these great tube railways practically started. Even now the streets were con- gested enough. What would have happened had this provision not been made? The tubes had done more than afford this relief. He believed Sir Edgar Speyer and those who collaborated with him had done more to aseist in solving the housing probLem in London than the most skilfully devised Act of Parliament could possibly do, by fairly and evenly distributing the population in all the healthy suburbs, instead of crowding it practically into one or two. Tube railways were part of the essentials of civilisation in a great city. Sir Edgar had expressed some surprise that the report of the Traffic Commission had not been properly carried out. In due course they hoped to be able to deal with this. More than that, they were already considering it with a view, he hoped, to action, and probably immediate action (applause). With regard to increased fares, it was not in the interests of the public that great enterprises of that kind should be run at a loss. Investors should be encouraged, and a concern run at a less stinted and starved its comforts and conveniences. In Germa-ny they seemed to be able to adjust the relations of municipal to private enterprise much more skilfully and practically than we did. They were not afraid of the municipality inter- vening in matters where the municipality alone could successfully deal with the diffi- culties. It was not the business of a municipality to speculate (applause). But many things could L,e done better by muni- cipalisiies, and on the Continent the muni- cipalities did them fearlessly, and with veaw grave and menacing results to the trade of this country. If they could think apart, from the controversies of the hour where the municipality could come in and could not, come in. it would be a great advantage TO the (jountrv. Governments never realised either the best hope.s of their friends or the j worst fears of their enemies (laughter). He could think of no Measure the Government had got. in its mind which ought to give a moment's anxiety to any honest investor in. legitimate enterprises (applause). He con- gratulated them all upon the succvss of this great undertaking. After the formal opening the line AHf thrown open to the public, free ridee being allowed all day.

CARNARVONSHIRE JOENT POLICE COMMITTEE. WAGES AT THE PENRHYN QUARE7. MR J. R. HUGHES'S EXPLANATION. A meeting of the Committee was held on Thursday afternoon, at Carnarvon, Mr Maurice Jones presiding, in the unavoidable absence of Sir H. J. Ellis Nanney (chair- ma.n). Others present were: Colonel Lloyd Evans, Colonel LI. Motilyn, Messrs E. Woo«. J. Issard Davies, D. P. Williams, W. J. Parry, J. Jones-Morris, H. Jones Roberto, J. E. Roberts, J. R. Pi it chard., Robert Hughes, J. R. Hughes, T. W. Griffith. Heio-y Parry, D. H. Davies, G. H. Roberts, Dr Owen, Dr H. Jones Roberts, together witi. Mr A. Bodvei-Roberts (clerk), and Mr M. H Williams (county treasurer). The Chairman referred to the death of Mr Menzies, who was a valued member of the Police Committee, and proposed a vote or condolence with the family in their bereave- ment. The resolution war, passed in silence. Mr J. R. Hughes alluded to a. Btatemei,* made by him with reference to a wage ticket of a Penrhyn Quarry workman showing tbu1; th.e amount earned for one month, was par- ticularly small. In fairness, to the ment of the quarry, he desired now to xeatl a letter he had received from Messrs Carter 48 and Vincent, solicitors to Lord Penrhyp, which was to the following effect:—"Refer- ring to your letter of the 24th ult.. We now bear from Mr Young that from the parti- culars which you have already been good enough to give us he has been able to iden- tify the pay ticket referred to by you at tiie Joint Police Committee as belonging to ai rybelwr No. 455, and amounting to 8e» 6d for the. month ended January, 1907. We ana informed, however, that this sura only re- presents what the rybelwr earned during overtime, as he was during the month work- ing in bargain No. 104, in the place of a. partner who was away ill, and he earned iit such occupation a sum of C3 1 Is 6d, making a total of £ 4 for 20 days worked during the month, or on an average 4s a day. In iihat particular quarry month, we are also iD- formed that the weather was exceptionally bad, snowstorms and rain; and from what we have, said we think you will recognise that the statement which you have made ai. the Police Committee is so utterly misLead- ing and calculated to do so much injustice to the management of the Penrfnyii" Quarry, that we suggest, to you that it' is only the right and honourable thing for yon to do to correct the wrong impression which you have created, and to give. to that correction tike same publicity as you gave to the statement complained of. We shall, therefore, be glB41 to hear from you with an intimation that at the next Police Committee meeting you un- dertake to make such correction, raid to give it the publicity we ask for." Mr Hughe* went on to say that it gave him much plaa»- sure to read the foregoing, and to find that, the workman had earned £ 4. Tne Chairman assumed that Mr Hugiues, therefore, repudiated the remark which, he had made at the previous meeting. Mr Hughes.: No, I merely give you an 001:- planation. The ticket I held at the tMne was No. 455. Of the other ticket. I know nothing further than appears in the letter, but it appears that the man worked under two uumbens. Mr W. J. Parry thought it very unfortu- nate that these tilings should have beea brought forward without proper investigaao* ("hear, hear). He knew of an jnstance in ooID- nection with a quarry with which h,p. W"c:a8 associated, where a man presented a ticket, which seemed to Rollow that his wage for ai month only amounted to -61 2s M, whereas as a matter of fact, the amount represented his earnings for one fortnight, while his wages for the second fortnight of the sanoei month amounted to C3 Is. It was most mis- leading to make statements of the kind with- out proper investigation, and be, hoped that Mr Hughes would take warning for what had happened. Mr J. R. Hughes: If Mr W. J. Parry will get anybody from the quarry to confirm what he says, I shall be pleased to accept it. Mr Parry: I shall. CHIEF CONSTABLE'S REPORT. The Chief-Constable, in his report- sajdt that Pol ice-serge ant Jones, of Llanbens, after 26 years' service, was retiring on & pension of £60 a year. Mr Henry Parry thought it was a mist&i#, to allow a man, who was only 48 years or age, to retire. Mr T. W. Griffith: We have no altera&c tive. Mr H. Parry gave notice that he woutel bring the matter forward at the next, meet- ing. CAPEL CURIG UNPROTECTED. The Chief-Constable read a Welsh lettear (being much applauded therefor) complain*- ing of the withdrawal of the policeman from I Capel Curig, leaving the place unprotected.

He would be pemowM) back to Capel Curig before the tourist season commenced.—Mr J. Jones-Morris protested against country districts being deprived of police protection.—Mr R.
