EDUCATIONAL SUCCESSES.—We are pleased to learn that two young townsmen have just passed successfully the Preliminary Examination of the Pharmaceutical Society, namely, Mr Morris Wynne Lloyd (eldest son of Mr Edward Lloyd, Chemist), and Mr Arthur M. Evans (the Rev Owen Evans's eldest son), who is also apprenticed to Mr Lloyd. THE ENGLISH CONGREGATIONALISTS' GOOD FORTUNE.—The English Congregationalists have been very fortunate in inducing the Rev J. D. Jones, M.A., B.D., of Lincoln, to take pastoral charge of the Hudson's Memorial Church, Col- wyn Bay, during the holiday of their Pastor (Rev Thomas Lloyd), this extending over the first three Sundays in August, on all of which the English Congregationalist pulpit will be occupied by the Rev J. D. Jones, who is an excellent preacher and Professor of Church History at Nottingham Theological Institute. TELEPHONIC COMMUNICATION FOR NORTH WALES.—Up to the presedt the united action of Rhyl and Llandudno has failed to induce the Post Office to telephonically connect these towns with the trunk-lines of England. Mr J. Thomas D. Evans, of Rhyl, who has been most indefatigable as Secretary to the North Wales Committee, has now received authoritative information that the General Post Office will at once construct a trunk-line from Holyhead to Chester, and enable Rhyl, Colwyn Bay, Llandudno, Bangor, Denbigh, &c., to obtain through communication with the existing trunk lines in England. AN EMINENT DIVINE'S VISIT TO THE BAY.- The pulpit of the English Presbyterian Church, Colwyn Bay will (D.V.) be occupied, for the next five Sundays, by the Rev Thain Davidson, D.D., London. Dr Davidson is one of the best known preachers in the Kingdom and he has made a name not only as a popular preacher and lecturer, but he is also known as an author of considerable repute. We understand that Dr Davidson has promised to give one of his popular lectures during his stay in the Bay. THE C.S.S.M.—As usual during August, the Children's Special Service Missiqn are holding meetings at Colwyn Bay, the leading Missioners this year being the Revs Martin Hall, W. S. Standen, and Stanley R. Morse. The Mission work commences on August 7th and ends on September 4th, and during the period indicated the ordinary week-day meetings will be held twice daily (except Saturdays), a Worker's prayer-meeting (at Rydal Mount) at 10.15 a.m. appropriately prefacing the half-past eleven Young People's service on the beach. Cricket, tennis, and other games, will be played at Rydal Mount Grounds four afternoons a week, and at six o'clock on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings, a Children's Service will be held on the beach. Special meetings will be held on Tues- day and Thursday evenings :—For boys only, at Carlton Lodge, at 6.30 and for young ladies, at Rydal Mount, at 7.0, Miss Etches (of Bath) con- ducting. The Sunday afternoon Children's Services will be held at 3.30, in the Public Hall.

THE LADIES BATHING PLACE, COLWYN BAY. To the Editor. SIR,-Can nothing be done to prevent the per- sistent annoyance to ladies while about to bathe, or on returning to their vans, by vulgar-bred ruffians intercepting their progress, and even sitting on the steps of the vans, ere the ladies can depart or return ? I do not speak without a cause, and I think you will have other letters on the subject ere long. Perhaps a Committee of Gentlemen armed with horsewhips, would help to clear the beach of such ill-mannered scoundrels, and hold them up to the contempt they so richly deserve.—Yours truly, DECENCY.

This is one of the most enjoyable events of the season on the North Wales Coast, and, as a large number of entries have been received in various branches of sport, and with the advantage of the Presidency of the Rev W. Venables-Williams, M.A. Oxon., J.P., Chairman of the Local Board, an eminently successful meet- ing is predicted, it being confidently anticipated that a large number of residents and visitors will attend and participate in the enjoyment so lavishly provided by the energetic Committee and their hard-working Secretary, MrW.

THE COLWYN BAY PIER COMPANY. ACTION BY A SOLICITOR. At the Wolverhampton County Court, on Monday, July 30th, before His Honour Judge Griffith, the case of Hill v. Bostock came on for hearing. The plaintiff, Mr H. Bliss Hill, solicitor, of Wolverhampton, sued Mr William Bostock, sugar refiner, of Liverpool, for £ 25, alleged to be due to him for commission for introducing the sale of a number of shares in the Colwyn Bay Pier Company, Limited.—Mr R. C. E. Plumptre appeared for Mr Hill, and Mr R. E. C. Kettle (instructed by Messrs Fowler and Langley, acting as agents for Mr Nunn, solicitor, of Colwyn Bay) for Mr Bostock.—Mr Plumptre stated that the defendant owned at Colwyn Bay a large estate, which was rather peculiarly situated. At its end was a narrow strip of land, which, if made a thoroughfare, would cause his estate to become exceedingly valuable. The Culwyn Bay Pier Company (when formed) proposed to buy this land, and Mr Bostock took great interest in the matter, finally becoming Chairman of the Directors. Mr Bostock was anxious to have new capital introduced into the concern, and, in one interview with Mr Hill, on August rst of last year, promised to pay him out of his own pocket 5 per cent. on all new capital he introduced. Mr Hill got Mr Nunn, of Colwyn Bay, to agree to put ^2000 into the concern, conditionally on his receiving the appointment of Secretary to the Company. Without Mr Hill's knowledge, the defendant approached Mr Nunn the latter put £500 in the Company, and was appointed Secretary. The plaintiff applied for his commis- sion, but his claim was denied. When Mr Hill wrote to Mr Bostock on the subject, the latter gentleman repudiated the suggestion that he had ever offered to give Mr Hill a commission for in- troducing new capital.—Mr Hill was sworn, and bore out the above statement, and Mr Holloway, architect, Birmingham, who had been employed to sell some of the Company's land, spoke to a con- versation in which the defendant promised Mr Hill and himself 5 per cent. commission on all new cap- ital introduced.—The defence was a total denial of the latter statement, and it was contended that the commission was to be paid in the sale of the Company's property.—In the witness-box, the defendant voluntarily stated that he had promised to try and induce the Directors to pay the plaintiff a commission, and upon being pressed said that it might have been for the introduction of new capital. -j udgi-netit was entered for the plaintiff, for the full amount claimed and costs.

THE MUSICAL GITANAS' GRAND EVENING CONCERT. The concert held by the Musical Gitanas, on Thursday evening, July 26th, at the Public Hall, proved quite a success. There was a fair audience, and as regards the programme, the quality of tone and variety throughout was fault- less. The list of artistes was as follows :Miss Kathleen Maccabe, Prima-Donna (Liverpool Operatic Society) Mr Sidney Worthington, of London Heir Karl Birvell, F.O.S., Novelty Ventriloquist; the Musical Gitanas,-Miss Jennie Mansell, Miss Connie Arden, Mr Bur ton Douglas, and Mr Carl Melville (pianist). The programme, being slightly altered, was given as follows :— Pianoforte solo, "Morris Dance" (E. German), Mr Carl Melville; song, "Star of Bethlehem" (Adams), Miss Kathleen Maccabe serio song, Oh, Mr Nobody," Miss Connie Arden song, "The Yeoman's Wedding Song," and, as an encore, How do I love thee," Mr Sidney Worthington; song, "Mona" (Adams), Miss Jennie Mansell; ventriloqual entertainment, by Herr Karl Birvell, F.O.S., who introduced his funny family of nine. Part If.P a,ioforte solo, "Hongarish Tanze" (Saroskowsky), Mr Carl Melville song, Off to Philadelphia," Mr Burton Douglas; humorous duett (in character), "Sally Waters (encored), Miss Connie Arden and Miss Jennie Mansell song, Dear Heart," and, as an encore, "The Minstrel Boy," Miss Maccabe; song (serio), I can tell by the twinkle in your eye" (encored), Miss Connie Arden; song, Nazareth," Mr Sidney Worthington song, In old Madrid," Miss Jennie Mansell," song, I dreamt I dwelt in Marble Halls." The enter- tainment then concluded with a most laughable drawing-room sketch, entitled "A Kiss in the Dark," fully sustained by the Musical Gitanas. All of the artistes are worthy of special praise, Miss Kathleen Maccabe fully sustaining her pre- vious reputation so often quoted under the legend Vide Liverpool Press." Her vocal ability has won for her great renown, and has deservedly been enthusiastically lauded by the English Press. Mr Sidney Worthington, of London, who has for many years visited the Bay, surprised everyone by the great elasticity of his cultivated voice, the upper and lower notes being clear, melodious, and of immense volume, and his expression and enunciation being perfect. The three songs, especially "Nazareth," were quite an unexpected treat. May this, his debut at Colwyn Bay, not be his final appearance there, for we all hope to hear him again ere long and more than once. Herr Karl Birvell, F.O.S., cleverly managed his little people, and as a ventriloquist is fairly in the fore- front his humour humourised everyone, and he was frequently applauded at intervals. We may also say that the Musical Gitanas surpassed all their previous efforts, at this (their benefit) concert perhaps the most taking item in their portion was the humorous duett, Sallv Waters" (in character), which was encored and repeated. Taken all in all, this is by far the best entertain- ment so far this season and the accompanist deserves great credit for the ability shown in the performance of responsible duties. The sketch, which was most amusing, was excellently placed upon the stage. The proceedings wound up with the English National Anthem.

Dear Sirs,—On the 17th of June, which I think was on- of the hottest days of the year. I spent the day on Hilbre Island, and was unfonunate enough to get ray feet sunburned and ba ly stung by Jelly Fish. By the day following my feet had swwolien and « ere inflamed to such an extent that 1 was quite unable to stand on them For a week 1 treated them with_carr <n 01!, hazelme, and hazeline cream without any satisfactory results. I then thought I would try Homocea, I pei.sevrred with it, and after applications at intervals during 24 hours, I was agreeably pleased to find the swelling and inflammation rapidly disappearing. After two days use of it I was able to stand, and now with the exception of a little weakness about the ankles, my feet are all right again Yours truly E S SMYTH if .H-mocea' had been used at once a wnole wee i's suffering would have been saved.
