To be stung1 by a Jelly Fish is not a pleasant experience, and may prove very troublesome unless you have Homocea handy to apply, when all pain and swelling instantly vanishes. Homocea is an invaluable remedy at the Seaside; should be used for Sunburn, Blisters, Wasp-Stings, andall kinds of Insect Bites. Use also for Cuts, Burns, Toothache, Rheumatism, and all Skin Troubles. It will stop an Influenza Cold like magic. T ,» BLAIR ATHOL, HOYLAKE. Dear Sirs,—On the 17th of June, which I think was one of the hottest days of the year, I spent the day on Hilbre Island, and was unfortunate enough to get my feet sunburned and badly stung by Jelly Fish. By the day following my feet had swoollen and were inflamed to such an extent that I was quite unable to stand on them. For a week I treated them with carron oil, hazeline, and hazeline cream without any satisfactory results. I then thought I would try Homocea,' I persevered 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." I If 'Homocea' had been used at once a whole week's suffering would have been saved. Homocea is sold by all Chemists at I/I and 2/9 per box; or can be had direct fro", the Homocea.

Colwyn Bay and Colwyn Local Board. At the Colwyn Bay and Colwyn Local Board's monthly meeting held on September nth, the Chairman (Rev W. Venables-Williams) presided, and there were also Messrs John Roberts, Owen Williams, A. O. Walker, John Porter, Thomas Parry, William Jones, George Bevan, William Earp, and W. H. Roberts, and the Clerk (Mr James Porter), the Surveyor (Mr William Jones), and the Collector (Mr B. Powell). THE TOWN'S YARD. The Surveyor was instructed to proceed with the erection of a shed in the Town's \ard, upon surplus land adjoining the Water-Works at Rhiw. WARNING ABOUT FIRING CHIMNEYS. The Surveyor was instructed to draw up a placard calling attention to the byelaws as to firing chimneys. THE NIGGERS. The question of "The Niggers" was ordered to stand over. THE FORESHORE. It was reported that the Clerk had forwarded to Mr Stafford Howard the plans of the foreshore, together with particulars of the Board's require- ments, and also five guineas for Surveyor's charges, but that no reply had yet been received. NO FEVER THIS SUMMER. Mr John Roberts called attention to the fact that some alarm had been caused by an item for "Fever Report" in the Board's advertised finan- cial statement for the year ending March 25th, 1894, through people failing to notice that the accounts related to a period already ended some time. There had been no fever in Colwyn Bay this summer. THE COWLYD WATER SCHEME Mr Thomas Parry, pursuant to notice, brought up the question of publicly commemorating at Colwyn Bay the opening of the Cowlyd water- scheme. Mr John Roberts hoped that no such opening would take place until the scheme was completed. Perhaps it might be only half a scheme after all. Mr Thomas Parry acquiesced, and said that he named no day in his motion. Mr W. H. Roberts hoped that all the Colwyn Bay people would ignore the celebration at Conway. Mr Bevan seconded Mr Parry's resolution, which was carried unanimously. THE FINANCE COMMITTEE. From the Finance Committee's minutes of September 7th, it appeared that the Surveyor's Cash was L80 5s 6d; Collector's Cash, ^1360 is 4d; Treasurer's Receipts, £ ,1318 6s 5d; Balance in Treasurer's hands, £ 1137 15s 7d; Payments, Z16S 14s 5d; that the Collector was instructed to make a list of those who refused to pay the rate or rates, and that he be instructed to proceed against the defaulters; that the Surveyor make one more call on the people owing for Rhiw Bank Avenue improvements, and afterwards if not paid that they be proceeded against; that the Com- mittee decided to bring before the Board the Auditor's recommendation that all payments (including workmen's wages) be made by cheque; that the Surveyor was instructed to procure a book and keep his accounts in a form recom- mended by the Auditor; and that the Committee had approved the Clerk's action in sending a cheque to the Denbighshire County Council, on account of the Groes-yn-Eirias Bridge. On Mr Bevan'f motion, a new minute was added, to the effect that demand-notes be issued for the quotas for private-street improvements in Grove-road, Back Bay View-road, and Rhiw- road. With reference to the Auditor's recommendation for all payments to be made by cheque, it was decided to let the matter stand over during the lifetime of the Board. .The minutes were adopted. THE THANKSGIVING DAY." Mr Parry moved, Mr W. H. Roberts seconded, and it was resolved unanimously, that the Chair- man name a day for the Harvest-Thanksgivings in Colwyn Bay. The day named was Wednesday October 3rd. THE ACCESS TO THE STATION. Mr Parry moved that the Board should represent to the Railway Company the crowded state of the approaches to the Colwyn Bay railway-station, during the months of July and August. Mr Porter seconded Mr Parry, and further called attention to the poor way in which the station was lighted. The Chairman said that the Gas Co. had offered gas to the Railway Company at 4s 2d per 1000 ft. The Railway Company paid 5s per 1000 ft at Conway and Abergele. The station was better lighted by a train in the station than by the ordinary lights. THE EIRIAS BRIDGE. Mr William Jones wished to call attention to the inadequatene..s of the proposed measures for fac- ilitating traffic during the work at the Eirias Bridge, but was ruled out of order. ASHPITS. Mr A. O. Walker called attention to the Medical Officer of Health's recommendations that in Urban Districts ashpit refuse should b2 placed in covered bins, which should be emptied at least once a week. BONA-FIDE TRAVELLERS AND EVANGELISTS. Mr John Roberts protested against carriages standing before a certain public-house on Sunday. The carriages came trom Llandudno, and the passengers came merely for the sake of drinking. They were not bona-fide travellers. The car- riages were left by the drivers, standing before the public-house. Mr W. H. Roberts complained of som evan- gelists obstructing at the top ofStation-road. He further complained of "Comic songs" being sung in front of his shop. Mr Thomas Parry hoped that all the public- houses would be refused more than six-days licenses, as was being attempted at Rhuddlan. The Clerk said that no such refusal would be feasible. Further discussion ensued upon Mr W. H. Roberts's complaint, and it appeared that on a previous occasion the Surveyor had been given discretionary power to take proceedings for the abatement of obstructions. Mr W. H. Roberts wished to move forthwith that the word "discretionary" be omitted from the resolution passed on August 14th, 1894, but was ruled out of order, the Chairman saying that the Surveyor must use his eyes, and form his own judgment as to the objectionableness or otherwise of the obstructions. THE PLEASURE-BOATS. It was decided that an experienced man from Conway should be appointed, at a fee of 303. in- clusive to examine and certify as to the fitness of pleasure-boats and boatmen before they were licensed each year. THE EIRIAS BRIDGE LOAN. The Clerk said that he had found that the war- rant for a loan for the purpose of erecting a bridge at Eirias was now lying at the Public Works Loan- office. The Local Government Board had author- ised the loan for thirty years, but the LQan Office would not grant it for that time. The Board's previous Clerk had been endeavouring to get them to compromise the matter by giving it for 25 years; and there the matter seemed to have dropped. The amount applied for was Z500- It was decided to instruct the Clerk to apply for the loan for 25 years.
A Fatality on the Deganwy…

A Fatality on the Deganwy Quay. On Friday afternoon, September 7th, John Thomas, laborer, was employed by Messrs P. & H. Lewis, timber merchants, Conway, at their Deganwy wharf, his duties being to unload coal (on piecework) from a steamer into railway trucks. Instructed by the foreman (Mr Moses Parry) to go to the shore end of the wharf, and to push down from thence an empty truck, John Thomas (along with three others) waited about until the empty trucks were being shunted, and then entered one of them. The jolt that ensued upon the trucks reaching the Scotch block at the end of the Quay, caused Thomas to overbalance and to fall out of the truck. Death was instantaneous, the wagon-wheels splitting open the head of the unfortunate man, who was unmarried, aged 23; and the son of Mr John Thomas, Tal-y-waen farm, Ty'nygroes. The accident occured at 2.20 p.m., and at 2.28 Mr Moses Parry wired to the Conway police, one of whom (P.C. Griffith) arrived shortly by boat. THE INQUEST. On Saturday morning, Mr J. H. Bodvel-Roberts, Coroner for Carnarvonshire, held the inquest, at Deganwy railway-station. Mr Fenna watched the case on behalf of the Railway Company. David Hughes, Tywyn, a feilow-laborer with the deceased, gave evidence as to being with the deceased, and two other men (in an empty coal- wagon then being shunted) when the accident happened. They got into the third vehicle from the engine, the first vehicle being a van. The witness sat on the bottom of the wagon, and the other three rose before the train got to the buffer, which it did with a heavy jerk, the wagons rebound- ing. The effect of the jerk was to throw the three others—who were on their feet and holding on to the side of the wagon,-first towards the witness, and afterwards backward, the deceased falling backward out of the wagon. On jumping down, the witness saw the deceased on the ground, under one of the wheels of the wagon next in front, that is, further from the engine. The deceased's head was smashed in; his body was in the four-loot, a little crossways. The witness ran for Moses Parry, their foreman, and a wire was sent to Conway. In answer to a juror, the witness said that the reason they jumped into the wagon was simply to save walking, and, answering Mr Fenna, said that they had entered the wagon just as it was getting into motion, and while it was passing the crane. The train was not shunted too fast, in the witness's opinion. John Hughes, laborer, Conway, gave somewhat similar evidence. The jerk was greater than he expected. After the accident, the deceased s head was by the wheel, but not under it. The injuries showed that the wheel must have passed over the deceased's head. Nobody touched the body until the police came. The shunting was not faster than usual. The witness, who did not know whether the railwaymen knew that anyone was in the wagon, had never previously got into the wagons whilst they were being shunted, nor had he seen any other men in them. John Tharme, driver of the shunting-engine, said that he lived at 8 Railway Cottages, Llan- dudno Junction. The previous afternoon he was shunting fourteen wagons and a van, down to the end of the "Dock Siding." An intervening val1 prevented his seeing the men in the wagon. The shunter was at the points. The witness had to use his own judgment as to the speed necessary to reach the buffer. The engine was stationary when the witness found what had occured. and there was about 1-1i yard-, between the detached wagons (which had reached the buffer) and the wagons attached to the engine. As the man was dead, and as nothing could be done of any good) the body was allowed to remain till the arrival of the police. The shunting had been done carefully' and the jerk was not more than usual. In answd to Mr Fenna, the witness said that most (if not all) of the wagons had spring-buffers, which would at first give way on the buffer-stop being reached' and then there would be a rebound. He had never these loaders on the train before, and had he seen them he would have complained and have had them removed. Robert Lloyd, shunter, Deganwy, said that be was with the train the previous day. He did not see the men in the wagon. He had seen the'1' some time ago (but never lately), and had moved them. He knew nothing how the accident occured. He was attending to the points, and knew that the line was clear when the starting- signal was given. The deceased and the othe¡{ men had been looking at a wagon which was the rails. P.C. John Griffith (52) said that the previo11* ( afternoon he received a telegram given in Deganwy at 2.28, and received at Conway a 2.32. He came at once, by the little steamed and arrived at Deganwy just after three. fle found the deceased in the four-foot, right undej the wheel of a wagon, which those present helpe £ to move. Two wheels had passed over the deceased's head. I The jury returned a verdict of "Accidents t Death," and found that at the time of the accidellt the deceased was improperly in the wagon. THE FUNERAL. The interment took place, on Sunday afternoon* at Caerhun, the Rev J. W. Roberts (Vicar/ officiating.
