Mountain Ash District Council
Mountain Ash District Council Tuesday.—Mr. T. W. Jones, J.P., in the chair. The other members pres- ent were: Messrs. E. Morris (vice- chairmall), Wm. Davies, J. Powell, W. LaijburnJ G. H. Hall, James Evans, Wm. Evans, Noah Bowles, Bruce Jones, D. Rogers, Wm. Millar, Major F. N. Gray, J.P., Rev. E. V. Tidman, with Mr. J. M. Linton (joint clerk), Mr. F. Stock (assistant clerk), Mr. H. T. Jones (sanitary inspector). Re-Elected.-The Overseers were re- elected for another 12 months. Another ESO.Messrs. Jones Bros., builders, Abercwmboi,. whose tender for additions to the Isolation Hospital was accented at the last meeting, wrote withdrawing their tender unless they could make a X50 addition thereto. They stated that owing to an oversight they had omitted to put that sum down for contingencies. (Laughter.) In reply to a member the Clerk said the difference between Messrs. Jones Bros.' tender and the next, was more than £ 50.—Mr. J. Powell: Did the figures appear in the Press ?—Architect: Only the successful tenderer's figures. —Mr. J. Powell: I would like to ask the architect whether this is a genuine mis- take.—Architect: It is very difficult to tell.—Mr. Bruce Jones Contingencies is a vague term.—Major Gray moved, and Mr. Powell seconded that they allow the tender to be altered from L528 to £ 578.—Carried. Tenders.—Tenders were received for the new tank to be fixed inside the Gil- fachyrhyd Reservoir.—That of Messrs. Edwin Danks and Co. was adopted, this being the lowest. Burial Fees.—At previous meetings Mr. Tidman rose the subject of double fees. Counsel's opinion was obtained, and this confirmed the practice of the Council. In the case of Miskin, how- ever, Counsel stated that the incumbent of Miskin and the incumbent of Moun- tain Ash Parish could not both charge fees in respect of the same burial. Rev. E. V. Tidman said his information was that the judgment in the Briton Ferry case had not been upset at all. How was it that that judgment could not be applied to Mountain Ash. Clerk There was a muddle in the Briton Ferry case concerning consecration. — Rev. E. V. Tidman Then our case is entirely different .-Clerk: Yes. The Clerk further said that the Council's practice was right, apart from burials from Miskin, where the incumbent hap- pened to have officiated. They had no power to pay two incumbents of the Church of England. Where, however, a Nonconformist minister officiated in a burial from Miskin, the incumbent of Mountain Ash must also be paid a fee. The Osborne Morgan Act applied only to consecrated ground. Good Friday.-Permission was grant- ed to all the halls and cinemas to per- form on Good Friday. Ynysybwl Lamps. P.S. Clesham's report regarding the breaking of street lamps was further considered. The Clerk said that the evidence was very inconciusive. Magistrates Criticised. The Clerk said that Mr. Jacob Studt had been pro- secuted for opening his show on Sun- day. The Magistrates dismissed the summons on payment of his costs.—Mr Rogers: Who on earth were the jus- tices?-Member: Col. Morgan, Major Gray and Capt. Evans.—Mr. Rogers: What good is it for the Council to draw up rules if the magistrates are going to set them aside ?Major Gray: I don't know whether you have any right to criticise them.—Mr. D. Rogers: They are a public body, and are not above criticism. There has been no justice in this case at all. The defendant de- liberately opened after being warned. It is a poor reflection on the justices' justice.—Major Gray: Perhaps the magistrates would be prepared to allow all the shows to be opened on Sundays. —Mr. Rogers: Yes, if those shews did not disturb them. Easter.—Mr. G. H. Hall asked the permission ef the Council to allow some aged men to attend near the Pavilion with barrel organs during Easter.— Granted. Tramwros and Water—Mr S. Sellon, the engin^r in charge of the construc- tion of Aberdare Tramways, wrote en- closing a drawing of the proposed line of tramways through Aberaman, Aberdare and Trecynon.—The Clerk said that the Mountain Ash Council engineers would see that the rails and poles would not interfere with their water mains. Must Use Water.—Henry Coombes and Co., fruiterers, Oxford Street, wrote asking the Council to withdraw the water supply, as they found it hard enough to pay the other rates.—Mr. B. Jones: How are they going to keep their shop clean?—Mr. Lnmburn Take water from adjoining houses, I suppose. —Chairman: We have refused like ap- plications from other places.—Resolved to decline the request. Forthcoming Elections. The Pen- rhiwceiber and Abercynon Chambers of Trade wrote urging the Council to give work in connection with the forthcom- ing elections to their lower paid officials. —Major Gray moved that they reply stating that the letters were being sent on to Mr. Linton.—Rev. E. V. Tidman said he had given notice to bring this matter on at an opportune time. Was it possible to have a report from Mr. Linton as to who he intended employ- ing ?-The Clerk said this could not be done until the nominations were in.- Mr. B. Jones: I may have half-a-dozen from Abercynon who would like a job.- Rev. E. V. Tidman: I don't want to find jobs for anyone.—Chairman: The best plan will be for any member to call here and see Mr. Linton after the nominations are made, or wait and see. —Mr. W. Millar remarked that as many outside people as possible should be em- ployed. Easter.—It was resolved that no meeting be held on Easter Tuesday.

B.W.T.A.
B.W.T.A. Aberdare was the venue of the B,W.T.A. annual meetings of the County Union on Tuesday. The dele- gates turned up in their hundreds in response to thec-invitation of the Local Society, who had secured the use of the English Wesleyan Chapel for the recep- tion and meetings. The proceedings commenced with the Executive's Con- ference, presided over by Mrs. Wil- loughby, Swansea. It was decided among other business to recommend the reversion to a County Association of the East and West County Association. A luncheon was provided for the visi- tors and invited guests by Mrs, Walter Lloyd in her usual generous inannor.- r The afternoon meeting was a well at- I tended conference, and Mrs. Willough- by occupied the chair, she having been appointed president of the Glamorgan County Association. Among other business transacted it was decided that the following delegates attend the Lon- don National Council: Mrs. Shaw, Swansea; Mrs. Gibson, Pontypridd;' Mrs. Stewart, Briton Ferry, and Mrs. Jones, Porthcawl. Reports were given by the various district secretaries of the work in their districts. Miss Tilly Stephens sang a solo. The election of officers will take place at the annual meeting in September.—In the recess Mrs. Gilbert Hodges provided a splen- did tea for the delegates and representa- tives.—In the evening there was again a large attendance, including some of the "mere males," with a sprinkling of the ministers of the town. Mr. J. H. Powell, the High Constable (who wore his chain of office) presided, and was accompanied by the lady High Con- stable, Mrs. Powell; the Lady Mayoress of Cardiff, Mrs. Morgan Thomas; and Mrs. Walter Lloyd and Mrs. Griffiths (Brynhyfryd), past and present presi- dents of the local B.W.T.A.; while among those present we noticed Rev. J. Ellis, Rev. J. Morgan Jones, M.A.; Rev. J. Lewis Jenkins, Mr. Frank Hodges (ex-High Constable), Mr. John Davies (ironmonger), Mr. Morgan Parr, Mr. George Parr, Mr. David James, Mr W. T. James. The president invited Mrs. lies (Penarth) to open in prayer, and then congratulated the B.W.T.A. upon their excellent gathering. Miss Jenny Warren (Treharris) superintend- ent of the East Division, gave an ad- dress based upon Drinking and pleasure seeking." Under the former head she attacked the moderate drinker as the cause of the greater evil, illus- trating her points in a happy manner. Militant suffragettes, said Miss War- ren, had not her sympathy, as they could use their energies in a better di- rection, and secure the vote quite as soon, if not sooner, by assisting Temper- ance legislation. Mrs. S. lies, Penarth spoke, alluding to the world round anguish at the Titanic disaster, but alas the same pathetio feeling is not expressed at the same monstrous death roll of 18,000 caused annually by the monster drink. 89,000 brewers domin- ated the legislature of the country, and the devastating Trade was a passport to the Privy Council and Peerage. The speaker quoted Dr. Saleeby anent the "feeble-minded folk," and urged the passing of a resolution which she read. It was a regrettable and lamentable fact that there were 270^000 mentally defective in our land, and legislation should be more stringent in relation to this matter. There were also 160,000 children who had appealed to the N.S.P.C.C. for protection from their natural protectors, and she made a most impassioned appeal to all to help in the directions in which the B.W.T.A. laboured. Miss Tilly Stephens, Aber- aman, rendered a solo in excellent style. The Lady Mayoress of Cardiff was in- troduced by Mr. Powell, and apologised for the unavoidable absence of the Lord Mayor. Mrs. Thomas expressed the hope that the ambitions of the local B.W.T.A. would be attained, and that financial help would be forthcoming to found and endow a Rescue Home or such an institution as would meet the needs of the day. The Lady Mayoress also gave earnest admonition to the mothers to do their duty towards their girls to enable them to combat the evils and temptations of the world. She suggested that the fathers should also (1) the same with their boys. Mr Willie Mason sang "Three Fishers." Mrs. Walter Lloyd gave an address. She referred to a mentally defective person at the Merthyr Union Workhouse, who was one of seven in the same family.— Sister Lena (Cardiff) gave a striking narration of her experience at Cardiff and Southampton in connection with Rescue Work-Mrs. D. M. Richards seconded the resolution in respect of the feeble-minded, which was then put and c-, --ried with one dissentient.—A vote of thanks to all who took part concluded a splendid campaign, and Mrs. Wilcox, 1 lie energetic secretary, is to be con- gratulated on its success. Donations of one guinea each have been received towards the Rescue Home from the High Constable, Mrs. Walter Lloyd, and Mrs. Evan Williams.

Football.
Football. Pontypridd v. Mountain Ash.—Ponty- pridd paid a visit to Mountain Ash on Monday afternoon to fill an engagement under the Glamorgan League. The re- sult of a very keen tussle was a draw of nine points each. At the opening the Old Firm made determined efforts to cross the Ponty line, but they found the defence very keen,' and they were even- tually beaten back. The first score went to Ponty, when Will Tiley, their out- side half, scored a try. Tiley had to negotiate more than one man in his pro- gress for the line, but he managed it well. The reverse did not dishearten the Mount men, and they resumed the at- tack again with vigour. This time they were rewarded, for P.C. Perryman got hold of the ball near the line, and taking careful aim shot a fine drop goal. Half- time saw Mountain Ash leading by one point. The second half was not very old when Pontypridd again took the lead this time- through a nice bout of passing which culminated in Len Judge getting over in the corner. Mountain Ash still went great guns, and were by no means beaten, and after many at- tempts they scored through D. A. Davies. Ginger Davies improved upon the score by converting with a fine kick. Mountain Ash were now three points ahead, and it looked as if they would win, but they still had a deter- mined lot to reckon with, and not long before the end W. Thomas scored an- other try for Pontypridd, which brought the scores equal. Seems like old times to see Albert Whittle in charge of the training ar- rangements for the Town Club. He hope, his roengagement will be the fore- runner of a successful season. We all hope so. The Aberaman Athletic Reserves en- tertained Treharris Guild on Saturday last in a Welsh League match at the Aberaman Park. Both teams were at their best, but failed to score. The re- feree was Mr E. Collier, Porth. The Athletic Reserves lined out as follows: -Goal. Neades; backs, Phil Williams, Iioggie Brayshaw; half-backs, W. Hillier (captain), W. Edevane, Tom Batten; forwards, Wat Rees, J. Masters, R. Samuel, lorwerth Williams, T. H. Tenant.
Haggar's Coliseum.
Haggar's Coliseum. A very attractive programme is pre- sented at the above popular place of en- tertainment. The leading film for the first three nights of the week was the Vitagraph Co's production, "Rip Van Winkle." A film of keen human interest is The Driver of the Deadwood Coach," whilst another equally inter- esting item is The Surgeon." The Mystery of a Grandfather's Clock by the Kalem Co., The Wreck of the Veronese" (shown by special request), and the humorous items entitled, Bachelor's Buttons (featuring John Bunny), and Foolshead" are very interesting. This week Mr Cyril S. Yorke made his welcome re-appearance after his recent serious illness, and gave the audience a splendid demonstration of his elocutionary gifts.

Up and Down the Valley. MOUNTAIN ASH. THE NEW THEATRE.—There have been good audiences at the New Theatre this week to see that delightful musical play, "The Count of Luxembourg," which has been played by Mr. George Edwardes' Company. The mi 3ic was pretty, the costumes beautiful, and the dancing fine. In the part of the Grand Duke Rutzenof Mr. Marcal Stringer was decidedly good, whilst as Brissard Mr. Fred Fowler imparted plenty of comedy. Mr. Howard V. Crofton made a good Count, whilst as Augele Didier Miss May Hesseltine quite captured the "house" with her good acting. At this house a fine attraction is promised for Easter week when that fine musical play, "The Dollar Princess," will be staged. It ought to be a sure "draw." SMOKER. At the Mount Pleasant Hotel, Miskin, on Monday evening a very enjoyable evening was spent, when a smoker was held under the auspices of the Bristol and West of England and South Wales Trade and Operative So- ciety (No. 4 lodge) in order to present members with jewels, silver medals, and emblems for introducing new mem- bers during the. year. The year has, been most successful, and over 100 new members have joined. This shows that the Insurance Act under whick the- society is approved" has done good work in introducing the voluntary sys- tem. In the absence of Mr Thomas Richards, Mr D. E. Evans presided, anA,- he was supported by a goodly gathering: of members. A fine variety programme of music was gone through, when ex- cellent local talent was displayed. Mr Tom Power presided at the piano, and the following contributed: Messrs Moses Jenkins (baritone), Henrr Mor- gan and John Morris (comedians), Wil- liam Davies (tenor), and W. Daviee (bass). The presentation of a jewel was made to Mr J. H. Price; emblems t. Messrs John Rook, D. Mathews, G. Picton, Isaac Jones, Owen Williams, William Davies, W. J. Pierce, J. H. Davies, G. Evans, and D. T. Davies, whilst the following gentlemen received1; silver medals: —Messrs D. E. Evans, Wil- liam Day, George Pierce, James Davies, James A. Hillman, and John Morgan. MINE FATALITY.—An inquest was held at the Police Station on Monday: afternoon before Coroner R. J. Rhys touching the death of a boy named Lewis Thomas Morgan, of Strand Street, Newtown, who met his death at the Deep Duffryn Colliery on Friday night last.—The father gave evidence of identification, and said the deceased was 14t years of age, and was engaged 2 as a collier's boy. He had been em- ployed for about 18 months. Charles, Hayes, a collier, said deceased was working as his helper. About 9.30 OB Friday night he left the boy standing by a tram whilst he went into the stall. to knock out a post in order to get soma ripping down. The top appeared to be safe enough, and he thought the boy was out of danger where he was stand- ing. He knocked the post out with s. < sledge, and the top coal unexpectedly fell backwards, and covered the boy. The fall was quite unexpected, andl could not have been foreseen. De- ceased must have been killed outright. The fall was about seven or eight tram fulls.-Fii.viuanTohn O'Neil stated that he had examined the place in the morn- ing, and had found the top firm. He marked it as fit for work. He had told Hays he could knock the post out with" a sledge, as he thought it was quite.. safe.—Mr. W. Morgan, manager, ex- plained the plan of the workings.-The, jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death," and expressed sympathy with. the relatives.
