ANGLESEY QUARTER SESSIONS NO C ASES. There were no cases for trial at t.he An- glesey Quarter Sessions he'id at Llangefni yesterday (Wednesday), and the attendance of the grand jury was dispensed with under. the provisions of the new law. (Sir R. H. Williams-Bulkelev -nrwided. and the following Sat on the Bench -kle&s-rs James H. 19urton, S. T. Chadwick, Harry Clegg, J. R. Davies, E. Parry Edwards, R Jones Edwards, R.

Treddolphin. CHAIRMAN'S ADDRESS. Si* Richard Bulkeliey said that "this was probably the first court at which the advan- tage was felt of the new Act which did away with the necessity for *the attendance of the grand jurymen when there was no business to transact. The grand jury had been summoned to the court, but on tho previous day they were advised that there was no business, and that they need not attend. Should any of the grand jurymen wish to bring a presentiment forward he could do so by giving notice five days before ( commission day. The Chairman said that it had several times happened that the sessions had been held when no civil,criminal or magisterial business had to be done. That day the only businees was the appoint- ment of members of the Police Committee, the date of which was fixed by Statute, as in the case of other committees. This meant that the July Quarter Sessions were the only ones in Anglesey which were likely J to be not held on account of there being no business. He thought that it might ad- vantageously be arranged by Parliament that all committees should be appointed on the one day. Sir Richard went on to refer to the Child- ren's Act, and briefly outlined its provisions. POLICE COMMITTEE. The ballot for members qf the Police Committee resulted in the re-election of Sir R. H. Wi.'liams-Bulkeley, Col. T. L. Hampton Lewis, Col. T. E. J. Lloyd, Dr John Roberts, Messrs Harry Clegg, David Roberts, G. J. Roberts, O. E. Jones, H. R. Davies, and Dr E. P. Edwards. Messrs R. IE. Jones and R. Gardner were elected to the vacancies caused through the death of Mr Priestley and Mr Samuel Hughes. COMPENSATION FUND. In reply to the Chairman, the Clerk said that there was £ 1642 in the Compensation Fund, but this had been earmarked by the Committee for two houses in jHolyhead, they having offered £800 and L850. The owners had refused these offers, and the cases were in the hands of the Income Tax Commissioners. It was decided to adhere to the maximum scale of charges under the Licensing Acti of 1904 THE DOGS ACT. Mr S. T. Chadwick said he would liko to call attention to the unsatisfactory working of the Dogs Act Many exemptions were granted, causing much cterical labour, but he did not think that much good had re- sulted. He favoured the old license cost of 5s per dog, and no exemptions. Dr John Roberts thought that 5s would be sufficient in the case of persons holding land. The Chairman did not think they could discuss the law; their duty being to ad- minister it. The matter could be brought up at the County Council or Police Com rnittee.

BEAUMARIS TOWN COUNCIL The monthly meeting of the Council was held on Tuesday, tihe Mayor (Alderman Col. Hampton Lewis) in the chair. Bills (amounting to .£100 (including JB41 for steam roller) wereordered to be paid. The estimate of receipts and payments for the ensuing hallf, year was considered, and it was ordered that rates 'be 16vied, as fol- Iowa: -B-o-Tough, £ 750; Public Library, £ 25; Burial Board, JB30. The Surveyor's account of wages for work during the past month amounting to £ 25 was submitted. Up to the present about 223 ton& of stone had been quarried, carted, and metalled from the quarry on Garth- road at a cost of ÓSi lid per ton. It was intended to go up. to 300 tons. With re- ference to the proposed pavement in front of the new post office along Little Lane, it was decided to ask Sir Richard Bulkeley if he wowld give up the -ground in consideration vi the Council paving th e same. Counlciillor Rriercliffe reported that the Bath (Siub-committee had.•gome into the matter of charges to be made, and submitted a scale, which was adopted. It was-also decided to apply to S'ir Richard Bulkeley for the equip- ment which he had kindly promised to pro- vide. Dr E. R. Thomas submitted his annual report, ■ which) was entirely satisfactory. The death rate was the lowest he had re- corded, being lil.31 per 1000 of the ipopuia tion. "The principal cause of death was old age.

It transpired at a meeting of the Con- way Board of Guardians, on Friday, that a pauper who had been in receipt of out-re- lief had been refused Old Age Pension. When the Pension Officer Iwas appealed to for information, he declined to grant the request on the ground that he was prevented from doing so by law.

RHOSNEIGR BOYS IN TROUBLE At the VaLIey Petty Sessions, on Monday, before Dr. E. P. Edwards and other maig:s- trates, two youths named 'Edward Henry Hope, of Haworth Vii'la, Rihosneigr, and Walter Williams, Post Office, Rhosneigr, were charged with trespassing on the L. and N.W.R. line- Mr T. It. Evans Ba1d. that he appeared on behalf of the L. and N.W.R. Company, who were subjected to gr-eat annoyance by the practice of people walking on the line at Rhosneigr. The company did not wish to unduly praaa this case, but wished to warn others. In the present case the youth Wil- liams was seen to climb the signal ladder and endeavour to interfere with. the arm of the signal, a proceeding which mighlt be attend- ed by very serious consequences. Mr. Thonsm Wood&!l Smith, J.P., now re- siding at Rhosneigr, said that he was walk- ing near the railway, linq, and noticed one of the boys at the toip of a signal ladder,, trying to push up the arm of, the signal.

Tho Chairman aid that they hoped thai the case would be a warning to others of the public, and res-train them from the danger- ous praotioe of ciimb'ng the fences and walk- ing on the iine. The defendants would be dealt with leniently, and would only have to pay the costs.

The candidates were men fully worthy of the ratepayers' confidence, and conse- I Jluently great interest was taken in the elec- I tion, and the voting was much heavier than ivigual., I In the Northern Ward eleven candidates competed ior five seats, and the main issue of the election was the alleged unequal treat- Orient meted, out to the east and centre portions of the town. The residents in the ca6t end were determined to elect men arhose interests lay chiefly in that part, and ItShree of the five isdcce-t;fu-I candidates were (residents in the east end.

Polling began briskly at 8 a.m. on Mondav 'in the Nortth and WTeet, and at 12 noon in the (South Ward. The result was de'clared first in the South (Ward, when the news soon spread that Mr a. iBerth Jones had succeeded to the vacancy left bv Mr Charles Reynolds' resignation, and that Mr Sam Jones had displaced Mr E. IT. Davies. A little later the result of the contest in the Western Ward was announced by Mr James Amphlett, the returning officer, to a large crowd gathered in the vicinity of the Council Schools, Conway-road.

CONWAY TOWN COUNCIL TERRITORIALS AND THE RIFLE RANGE. The Mayor (Councillor Dr M. J. Morgan) presided over a meeting of the Conway Town Council on Wednesday. The Borough Surveyor reported that he had received a list of the camps for 1909, by which it was proposed to eend militia to Conway during August and September, That was a new departure, and deserved the serious consideration of the Council. After consulting with the Mayor, he (Mr Dela- motte) had written to the Chester Autho- rities pointing out that in previous years the camp season at Conway had always- ter- minated the first week in August by an arrangement between themselves and the Council. He had received a reply to the effect, that his communication had been sent to head quarters. The Council approved of the Surveyor's action, and instructed him, upon receipt of a reply, to consult the Mayor, and, if neces- sary, convene a special meeting of the Camp Committee. It was decided to let the rifle range to the Carnarvonshire Territorial Association foi< every Thursday. and Saturday from thq, 3rd April to the 1st August, 1909, in- elusive, with the exception of Easter week and me 1st ot May, for the sum of £10. Nine tenders were received for the pro- viding and laying of water mains from Deg- anwy to Uanrhos, and on the Morfa, and I that of Messrs Hughes and Rowlands, Col- wyn Bay, for J3591 18s Id was accepted. The highest tender was £ 933 8s 9d. The' Lighting Committee recommended that' the Council's solicitor be written to telling him that a friendly interview between the 'Mayor, Chairman, and Gas Manager and Mr Wood had taken place, and that he bo asked to write to Mr Wood stating that if he acquiesced in the Gas Manager's sugges- tion to close the ventilating openings on his side of the Retort Hou&e, the committee would be glad to meet his wishes by having this work done. On the motion of Mr James Porter se- conded by Alderman W. M. Sever, the Town Clerk was instructed to write to the County Education Authority asking on what grounds they propose building a new school at Gyffin at a cost of say £1500, anl also whether they include the parish of Llechwedd.

INDECENT CONDUCT AT LLANBERIS. Daniel Roberts, a young quarryman, liv- ing at Blaenyddol, Llanberis, pleaded not guilty at the Carnarvon County .Sessions on Saturday, to a charge of indecent con- duct on 16th March last. The police prose- cuted, while the defendant was represented by Mr Richard Roberts. Janet Jones, a married woman residing at Taiiyjiiariaii, Dinorwic, testified that cn the afternoon of the date in question, she was returning home from Llanberis along -the path which leads past the Quarry Hos- pital. She ^passed the defendant on the ay, but he subsequently came up, got hold of her, and exposed himself indecently. Witness managed to release herself from the defendant's grasp, and he came after her. She told him that she knew whom he was, .and threatened to report the matter if he persisted in coming after her. ThJe fol- lowing night she complained to the police, rwho instituted proceedings. The defendant denied the charge abso- lutely, stating that the whole was as big a lie as was ever told. Tho Bench considered the case proved, and imposed a fine of JB1 and costs.

FAKMERS AND THEIR DOGS NEW RULE IN ANGLESEY. A joint meeting of the justices of Angle- sey has been held at Llangefni, to consider the desirability of lhaving a .uniform basis for the granting of exemptions in regard to dogs used for tending cattle and sheep. The result is that a circular has been addressed to the various justices' clerks recommend- ing that no exemptions be granted where the land held is under 10 acres, and that a hold- ing of 200 acres be necessary before exemp- tions for two dogs be allowed. The circu- lar asks that great care shall be exercised in dealing with applications from small far- mers iwho are also rabbit catchers, and that exemptions be not granted except where the dogs are kept merely for tending stock. The Holyhead justices met undoil the chairmanship of Mr T. Forcer Evans, on Saturday, when the new rule was adhered to in all the cases. I Mr R. Lloyd, Ty Mawr, applied for two exemptions. In support of his application he said that though ihis farm was only 160 acres, it was rated on 2131 58, while a cer- I tain farm in the same parish (where two exemptions had been granted) had an acre- I age of 200, and was only rated on JB59. In the latter case there were oniy 48 head of cattle. while Mr Lloyd had 170 head. ) The nch considered the case for. some time, and asked which other farm Mr Lloyd meant, but he declined to say. Finally, the Bench decided to arJow only one exemption. Mr Robert Jones, Tyddyn Lantern, who said he held eight acres, applied for one exemption. P.S. Henry Roberts objected. Applicant said that he had to keep a dog to keep sheep away. Hundreds of sheep came over from Ireland, and were placed in a neighbouring ffeld owned by Mr Flan- agan, and these broke over the hedges into his field. Mr Gardner The best rway is to put them in a safe place, and charge a shilling each for them. The Applicant: I have lived in peace with my neighbours always, and always hope to do so. I hope I shall never go to law. Mr Gardner: If you want peace you must have a Dreadnougiit (laughter). But it is very annoying for sheep to be breaking in. The -Chairman said that the justices could not depart from their rule. The Applicant: Is that fair? Is there any justice in it? Mr J. N. Thomas You must remember that we have not made the law. Parlia- ment made it. The Applicant: If you say I must pay for a dog to prevent other people's sheep from coming on my land, there is an end of it. Your duty is to administer the law. but it is most unjust. The Chairman A rule has been made at Llangefni. Applicant: They have no Irish sheep at Llangefni. Exemption was refused. Mr J. N. Thomas said later that there ought to be some special provision in such cases. In several of the cases it transpired that the amount of acreage in the rate books, and that stated by the farmer to Ib-e held by him did not agree. The case of Mr Roberts. Trehwfa, was adjourned for verification of the acreage, and in the others it transpired that rent was paid to [Lord Stanley for "common" on the mountain, and that the rates were paid by him. Mrs Edwards, Goferydd, was told :You don't want a dog to mind you?" to which she replied, "It is a very lonely place." No exemption was granted in her case. Several of the applicants were told that if the dogs were used for any other purpose but that of tend- ing stock, even as watchdogs, the police could prosecute. Two exemptions were granted to Mr W. R. Jones, Pwllpillo (who iholds 83 acres), on the ground that he has two separate holdings. In another case the applicant could not say what breed his dog was, but it was no good for rabbits. An exemption was granted.

PENMAENMAWR COUNCIL DESTRUCTIVE LADS. Mr YV. D. Jones presided at the Penmaen- mawr Council meeting on Tuesday night. In consequence of complaints as to the breakage of glass in the promenade shelters, Police Constable W. Jones made inquiries and reported to tihe Council that he found 36 panes of glass broken. From the marks on each pane he concluded that all the frac- tures were the work of the same person. He cautioned two boys, and then questioned them, and he now submitted their state- ments. One' boy said he oniy scratched one pane, another denied at first that he did any damage, but then admitted that he broke one glass. A third boy stated that another boy broke a window with a catapult, buii he did not do it intentionally, as he was trying to shoot through a hole that was already made (laughter). Several boys were, it was stated, detected doing wilful damage to the Council's property some time ago, and were called before the Council and cautioned. As this had not had the desired effect the Council decided to take legaj pro- ceedings against, the alleged offenders in the present ease. IMPROVING FINANCES. Col. Darbishire, referring to the finances of the town, said that during the last finan- cial year the income from races and other sources was L5119, and from the County Council in respect of main roads P,381, mak- ing a total of £ 5500. The administration cf the district cost L5143. The year began with a deficit of 2,4%, and that was reduced to L29 at the end of it. but it had been de- cided to set apart 2262 for the laying of a water main for which a loan iwas obtained some time ago. The debit balance was thus raised to L291. Loan instalments and in- terest absorbed 10s 4d of each J31 expended. It was unanimously decided to lay a rate during the current year of 5s Id in the pound, being a reduction of 2d in the pound. THE LONDON EXHIBITION. Mr P. H. McClement reported that he had attended the meeting at Colwyn Hay con- vened by Mr Warner, district supt. of the L. and N.-W. Railway Company, with a view to the due representation of North Wales in the White City Exhibition, Lon- don, which will be opened early in May. He said he was informed that Penmaenmawr could have a panoramic view of the resort painted by a skilled artist 12ft. 6in. long by 18ft. for and for another JB55, space to display it would be reserved, and electric light to illuminate it from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily during the run of the exhibition. Mr McClement added th" he believed the Railway Company were really taking an im- portant forward etep in booming their North Wales resorts, and the local authorities should do what they could to assist that movement. The difficulty, of course, was that expenditure out of the rates was illegal. Mr Horner impressed upon the meeting the importance of suitable music, entertainment and amusement iheing provided in North WaJ'es. and he advised Colwyn Bay and Llandudno to extend their music season a month or two longer than usual to see 'whether it would not have the result of bringing down more visitors. The Company intended to advertise the North Wales Coast more extensively, not only for its summer attractions, but also as a winter resort (ap- plause). WHAT THE RAILWAY COMPANY CAN DO- Col. Darbishire said that in addition to what Mr McClement had said the Railway Company intended to do, the Company should also give nynre satisfactory railway facilities, not. only to and from England. but also for attending the entertainments at Oolwyn Bay and Llandudno. At places like Penmaenmawr, they could not emulate what was done at the larger re-sorts ho had named, which 1-kid so many privileges, but the smaller places could be assisted largely if there were railway facilities for return- ing from the concerts and other entertain- ments at Llandudno and Colwyn Bay. There were many people who did not care to live in the larger resorts where there was more exèÍtement, but who liked to go there to listen to the concerts GENEROUS OFFER. With regard to the proposed panoramic view at the White City, he would he verv happy to subscribe JB20 towards the L75 which would be required (applause). It was decided to submit the project to the local Improvement Association, who will probably raise the balance of L56. A POSTAL GRIEVANCE. Mr David Jones explained that the letter box for the night mail at the Penmaenmawr Post Office closed at 8 p.m., whilst at the Old Village Office it closed at 6.45. This was much too early, and he moved that the Postmaster General be petitioned to delay the final despatch at the Old Village till 7.30 p.m., which he thought could be man- aged easily. The proposition was carried, end it was resolved to ask Mr W. Jone3, M.P., and Mr J. Allanson Plcton to assist in laying the urgency of i before Mr Sidney Buxton.
