» Death of Alderman David Griffiths, Kidwelly. We regret to announce that on Wednesday evening (April 16th), Alderman David Griffiths died at his residence, London House, Kidwelly, of paralysis, at the age of 75. He was a member of the corporation under the old charter for a number of years ar.d served under that charter as a J.P. for the borough. Crder the new charter Mr Griffiths WPS again a member, and was made an alderman of the borough in 1888. He was also for some years a member of the Kidwelly School Board. In politics he was a Conservative but he ne-or took any aitive part in political life. He was a constant member and a deacon of the Morfa Calviniftic Methodist Chapel, of which place of worship he was one of the main piillars. He leaves behind a widow and two sons and three daughters, his sldest son being the Rev D. T. Griffiths, B.A., curate-in- charge of St John's AN,-elrh Church, Carmarthen, while the other son is Dr. J. K. Griffiths, house surgeon at the Carmarthen Infirmary. The funeral took place on Saturday, the deceased gentleman being buried at St. Mary's Churchyard. The funeral was a public one, and was very largely attended. The service in the house was conducted by the Rev D. G. O wen, C M., and the Vicar of Kidwelly (the Rev D. D. Jones) officiated in the Church and at the graveside.

THE NEW PAIUPII COUNCIL met at the Board Schoolroom on the 15th April. All were present except one of the newly elected members. Mr Long Price, Talley House, was unanimously re-elected chairman for the ensuing year; also Mr Perkins, Gelly, as vice-chairman Mr S. M. Jones, Plas, as treasurer; and Mr A. D. Townsend as clerk. Having thus secured the services of the old officials, the machinery ought to run smothery after a year's experience. Mr Jones, Abernant, for Upper Division and Mr Henry Lewis, Llettywen, for Lower Division, were appointed overseers. Mr Williams, Bryngwyn, asked for a petition to the Postmnster- Gencral for increased postal facilities in delivery for his immediate district. A discussion took place upon several topics of local interest, but no definite resolutions passed. THE TELEPHONE is now in working order, and we understand a brisk trade was done on the opening day. No doubt some were of a complimentary nature, but all tgree upon the great conTerierice it has afforded. COCOA is more than mere stimulating and refresh- ing drink, it is also a nutritious food, and one of the most precious gifts of nature sustaining and invigorating the system probably more than any other beverage. The Lancct refers to Cadbury's Cocoa as the standard of highest purity at present attainable in regard to coooa." No alkahes used.

Dr. Moore, in his work on Nose aud Throat Diseases," says: The Glycerine Jujubes, prepared by James Epps and Co., are of undoubted service as a curative or palliative agent, while Dr Gordon Holmes, Senior Physician to the Municipal Throat and Ear Infirmary. writes "After an extended trial, I have found your Glycerine Jujubes of considerable benefit in almost all forms of throat disease."

The Great Need of the Age Is some scientifically arranged preparation which will cope effectually with the prevalent diseases of this country, which will be certain to do good when fau ly tried, which will be equally adapted to the needs of the merchant and workman, the professional 1man, (aiiid he who wins his pread by the sweat of his brow, the student, the clerk, the factory hand, the miner, and the roadside labourer. It should be, too, such a pre- paration as contains no injurious ingredients, and which may be taken with impunity by the weakly child or the delicate lady, as well as by the stronger constituted man. Such a discovery would deserve to be called the Perfection of Medicinal Preparations, and would be, indeed, an Invaluable Boon to Suffering Humanity. 0 This much-needed Boon has been found, tried, and proved to be satisfactory. It is Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters, the vegetable tonic. This world- renowned n.edicine is strongly recommended for affections of the chest, Debility iu any form, Depression of Spirits, etc. It is sold in bottles, 2s M and 43 Cd each.

S; had long been a suif-rer from sicknefrs at, IL-mú in Wales and the cause not beiriK fathomed by the physicians at her homo there it. was fut that r. ohatige of climate would prove bcnefi-:ial. ifet siukness covers a period of ten ye-us Uron coming here, the family went to live on Bric't ATcnke, in the house belonging to Mrs Mary L-ingan. For several weeks Iirs Ditvi3 went ai;y appearin. using simple remedies iu trying to alleviate hersniferings. Ihen Dr Fulton of the central part of the ei'y, was called iu, aud for the past three w-eks he has attended i^e suffering woman. Dining those few weeks, however, Mrs Davis had been utterly unable to eaL any solid fooo, and her only nourishment has been milk and Thursday ,Ll-out 6 o'clock an unusually severe and painful eiukuess suddculy caire upon her, and it being impossible to s, ctiro the prompt attendance of Dr Fuiton fr.lill his office tlci% n town a hurried call was sent to Dr W. G. Don no at his office on West reel,, about two Mocks awav. The physician made haste to answer, but before he cou'd reach the house Mrs Davis was taken with violent vomiting-, almost to strangula- tion. There were several violent ejections of liquids, and then followed the live fish. Those of her family who were present at the timo were tilled with amazement. Tho explanation of the woman's troubles was appaient, and all felt thankful that her sufMings -A (lt;i-i now cense. The fish was perfectly formed, and was complete to tai: ami tins. It was very weak, however, and mo-ed feebly when p'ac,.d in water. It has been placed in achohol by the famih. How the fish came into the system of Mrs Davie is unknown, and can be explained in r.o other way than that she drank it with water some years ago. As soon as tlio fish had been ejected, and tho weakness caused by the violent effort ia relieving her of it, had passed away, Mrs Davis began to feel better, and rejoiced widi her-friend:, that at last she was rid of the 1 rouble that had trade life so miseiable to her. This morning she was greatly iinpsoved in spirits and health, uj with the ability to take and retain substantial foods her complete recovery is early ( xnc-.cted. The fish has shrunk somewhat since Thursday night It is white, though more 0: a crcam colour now than when it first cllme to vie A. The tail was unusually long, and was happed wi:h much energy. Mrs Davis has the fish placed en a large plate. IL will be put ii1 alehchol auJ preserved.

A STATEMENT BY MBS DAVIS A Truth reporter saw Mrs Dvis this morning at her home. She strUc! that ehe had been troubled with stomach troubles for ten years, fin.] then she said: A doctor in the-■ old country told me that there trust be something alive in my stomach. Sir,ce I have been here I have snft-rai much, especially during the iast three months, For tinee weeks I have been in bed. I had C, t, so that I could not talk, and could ha.-diy move. Or Thurs- Iby I had f\wf,d pains in my stomach, and it teemed tlrvt there WHS somethicg moving obout there Mv frierds iifcd mustard {dusters ,m me, t ut, those did no good. In the evening I nrank come tea and then a few dropR of brandy. A moment afterwards the brandy and tea CHIDe back, and th 11 I vomited the fish. It went on the floor and moved atoat. My husband was to surprised that he seemed to be afraid of it IT, first. As soon as the fish came np I had relief and then s'ooped down, and took hold of it. I have grown better ever sine?. I do not know how it could get into my stomach unless it wtre by drinking water. Where we lived in the old country there was some- times small fishes in the water, pud I ilby have unknowingly ewallo.ved 0110 while taking a drink—Pennnylrania I'r nth.

Is Llandilo Dic-Slion-Dafydd Strieken ? To the Editor of the Carmarthen Weekly Reporter SIR,—Your correspondout, Mr J. E. Thomas," has stll further committed blunders in li's criticism of Gomerian's letter. Iu prefacing his remarks this Greek scholar had undoubtecUy amused himself h}' riding his favourite long-eared pony out, at least, of the Gardeu of Eden, and when my friend was in the hvyl of his amusement made use of strong 0/ languago towards Gomerian," which reminded rue of a young advocate of the Bar, who, finding that he held a weak case (and, to use the groat phrase of the late Lord Beaconsfield) ccmmencpd in a temper to hurl his" exuùer- ance of verbosity" towards his opponents as far as decency would allow him. With ail my friend's verbosity, he has not advanced a bingle argument confirming his theory. In his first contribution he said, "Gomerian" and I differ in one estimation of the Welsh language." "Gomerian" said "it cannot be compared to any other language for its softness, tenderness, and sweetness of its sounds." I never heard it compared to the Italian and Spanish languages." It is not my fault that lie has has not heard of it, and, with due respect to my learned friend, the fact remains. Had be taken my previous advice and consulted the Cardiff librarian, and askod that gentleman to show him some books by authors that treat on languages, lie would have seen the fact for himself, Evidently ho has not seen any himself, or else he would never have written in the strain ho did. I can give him columns of quotations, if required, from eminont authors, who hold M.A. degrees, to prove what I said is correct; authors who have largely dealt on European languages, and he has only to read those authors to agree with me, and not to differ." J.E.T. "isnes Gomerian to "accept his unfeigned C, thanks "for the little story related about the Welsh utterances from tho London English pulpit that had boon taken as Greek by the ignoramuses to both languages. Surely he docs not deliberately twist that simple story to suit his own ends. The Londoners understood it rightly in its proverbial meaning, in the same way as wo apply the old adage to spoken of in an unknown tongue. We say that is "Greek," and that is the extent of most people's Greek knowledge. Every person has not been favoured with such advantages as J. E. T. has had, viz., a collegiate training. Winding up his Greek argument, he says :— "1 had arnved at this conclusion aiter studying Greek for some five years." By the L' way, I have heard it repeatedly said that the greatest Greek cholar of the age is the Kight Honourable W. E. Gladstone, and he said if my memory serves me rightly—that it would take a man twenty years to master the Greek language. Is it possible that my friend has done it in five 1 Now I shall bid well to my Cardiff friend, and wish that he may come to excell all Greek scholars of the day. In conclusion, Mr Editor, kindly allow me to make another appeal to the committee of the Llandilo Literary institute to give their attention to the increasing cry of the Welsh inhabitants of the town by furnishing the library with such a decent stock of Welsh literature as the good old town may be proud of. I am sure that many a Welsh home would be blessed thereby by having a chance to borrow a book for the use of home reading. This needful reformation would be brought about, I am sure, if the hon. secretary would take the matter in hand. He has a wide influence, and is always pleasant, humorous, and indefatigable in whatever he undertakes. A more just and impartial gentleman can scarcely be found, and as such the ratepayers generally look to him with the greatest con- fidence of redress in this matter. I have faith that the Secretary and the Committee will before the end of this year see their way clear in giving justice to the Welsh popula- tion, and with malice to none, and charity for a".
