CYCLING ACCIDENT.—On Thursday even- ing of last week, a serious cycle accident hap- pened in Abergele Road, resulting in injury to a boy named Robert Evans, 14 years of age liv- ing in Ivy Street. It appears that the boy was playing with some other lads and ran across the road in front of an approaching cyclist, who, being unable to stop or get off, accidentally ran over him. The cyclist had a nasty fall, and the boy was picked up suffering from serious injur- les to thei head. He was at once conveyed to the Cottage Hospital, where it is understood he is making satisfactory progress towards recov- ery. Considering the careless manner in which children often play in the main roads, it is a wonder accidents of the kind are not more fre- quent, and it is hoped that this case will act as a. warning to parents, and children. No blame whatever attached to the cyclist. COTTAGE HOSPITAL.-Miss Jones, on behalf of the Committee, acknowledges the following gifts :—Mrs Minchin, flowers and vegetables Mrs Eden, flowers and mushrooms; Mrs Nuttall, "Sphere;" Mrs Horton, Bryn Dinarth, vegetables, flowers, &c.; Mrs Digby Smith, Llanddulas, vegetables and flowers; Miss Francis, Tanllwyfan, vegetables Mrs Morris, Rokeby, daily papers Dr. Russell, tomatoes. THE REV. J. G. TRAIN, who will preach at the English Presbyterian Church next Sunday, con- tributes to the current number of the Monthly Messenger an interesting article entitled "Among the Cymry." He describes very vividly a γ- sassiwn," or preaching meeting, held in the open air at Bangor, and the impressions made upon him by the eloquent preaching and the fervent singing. Mr Train has occupied the pulpit at the English Presbyterian Church each Sunday during August, and with characteristic kindness he takes the place of the pastor (the Rev. John Edwards) next Sunday again. THE CADETS.—A complimentary benefit was given by the Cadets to Mr Arthur Slater, on Friday evening of last week, when a large audience en- joyed a splendid concert and marked their appreci- ation of Mr Slater's talents. To-morrow (Friday) evening, Mr Bert Williams rakes his benefit, and it is to be hoped that the Church Room will be again crowded. Mr Bert Williams became a great favourite during the very first week of the season, and each week his clever performances have added enorm- ously to his popularity. LOCAL WEDDING.-Tho marriage took place on Wednesday, 31st August, at Engedi C.M. Chapel, of Mr J. H. Roberts, builder, of this town, and Miss Mary Davies, Central Buildings. The Rev Robert Roberts officiated, the Rev Thos. Parry (registrar) also being present. The bride was given away by her uncle, Mr D. Williams, and Miss M. Williams was bridesmaid. Mr Trevor Jones was best man. Mr C. J. Heighway presided at the organ, and played Wagner's Bridal March" (Lohengrin), and. Mende'sshon's Wedding March." The reception was afterwards held at Dore House, Sea View Crescent. Mr and Mrs Roberts left during the afternoon for Liverpool and Dolwyddelen to spend their honeymoon. COMPETITORS AT THE NATIONAL,—On Tuesday evening an exceptionally good concert was given in the Public Hall by the members of the Mid-Rhondda United Choir, under the con- ductorship of Mr E. Hughes. The chair was taken by Mr Pryce Williams, Colwyn Bay, who in the course of a few remarks extended a cordial welcome to 4he choir. Needless to say there was a packed attendance, additiona' interest being added to the programme by the fact that the choir were to compete at the National Eisteddfod at Rhyl 011 the following day in the chief choral competition, and their programme on Tuesday included the three test pieces. The proceeds of the concert were in aid of the cost of bringing the choir to the Eisteddfod. LIFEBOAT SATURDAY.—The annual collec- tion in aid of the Lifeboat Institution, organized by Madame Riviere and Mons A. F. Lalande, was made on Saturday, and the presence in the bay of the Llandudno lifeboat, ful y manned, served to quicken public interest in the occasion. Madame Riviere was ably assisted by M. Lalande, and the following ladies: Mrs Bul more, Mrs Baxter, Mrs Allen, Miss Spackman, Mrs Heard, Miss Phoebe Parker, Misses Margaret and Nora Sarson, and Miss Aimee Bebb. A very liberal response was made to the appeals of such charming ladies, and the total collected was j 23 4s. 4d. SCIENCE AND ART CLASSES.Convened by Mr Jos. H. Roberts, the first meeting of the new Technical Instruction Committee (under the Act of 1902) was held on Wednesday afternoon at the Council Chamber. There were present Mr J. W. Thomas, Miss Hovey, Councillors W. Davies, Hugh Hughes, G. Bevan, R. Newell, J. Dicken, and J. Berth-Jones, Rev John Edwards, Mr Fred Griffiths, and Mr Jos. H. Roberts. Mr Roberts was request- ed to act as Secretary pro tern. Mr J. \V. Thomas was elected Chairman of the- Committee, and' Mr Thomas Jones (Gwyndy) was appointed Hon. Secretary. The teachers appointed were Miss Lillie Holmes (Art Classes), Mr R. R. Phillips (Commercial Classes), and Mr Levi John (Building Construction Class). It was decided to again hold cookery and laundry classes managed by a Ladies' Committee. The arrangements for the various classes will be decided upon at the next meeting of the Committee, which will be held at an early date. ST. DAVID'S CHURCH SALE OF WORK. —The preparations for the sa'e of work in the Church Room are now complete. Thursday next, the I ztli, is the day on which it will be held, and it is to be hoped that the well-laden stalls will be speedily emptied, for the benefit of a most deserv- ing cause. St. David's Welsh Church, which was opened by the Bishop of St. Asaph in March of last year, had long been greatly needed in the town, and those responsible for its erection have rendered a noble service to the cause of religion in the town. 1 he Rev. J. G. Haworth, whose splendid generosity is only one of many qualities that endear him to the people of Colwyn Bay, laid the foundation stone on yVhit Monday, 1902. The beautiful edifice, which seats three hundred worshippers, cost £ 1670, ex- clusive of the many valuable gifts received. Of this amount, there remains a debt of (1250, and it is this adverse balance which the promoters of the Bazaar hope to wipe out next Thursday. Mrs Haworth has very kindly consented to open the sale, and the Hon Laurence A. Brodrick to fill the presidential chair. THE REV. PREPENDARY WEBB-PEPLOE will preach at St. Paul's Church next Sunday morning.

OLD COLWYN.
OLD COLWYN. PASTORAL PLAY.—By the kind permission of Mr and Mrs Eden, the grounds of Llety r Dryw will to-morrow (Friday), serve as dramatic stage and auditorium. Miss Anna Mather and her com- pany will present some charming pastoral plays, which in the hands of such talented artlte6 must prove highly delightful. Tickets may be obtained of Messrs R E. Jones & Bros., 8, Station Road, Colwyn Bay.
PENMAENMAWR.,
PENMAENMAWR. GIRLS' COLLEGE, PENMAENMAWR.— Nora Beatrice McKean, of the above. College, successfully passed the Senior Oxford Examina- tion, obtaining the distinction of Associate of Arts. LICENSING.—At the Conway Petty Sessions, on Monday, the license of the Mountain View Hotel was transferred from Mr. John Roberts to Mr. Thomas H. Lissenden. DISORDERLY CONDUCT.-P.C. Owen (21), at the Conway Petty Sessions, on Monday, had occasion to complain of the conduct of John Pott, of Ormsdale, Dwygyfylchi.—Thei Magis- trates were quite agreed ,as to the gravity of the charges made against him, and by way of cor- rection, fined Pott ten shillings and costs. WHAT BEER WILL DO.—Though Hugh Griffith, of the Storehouse, Penmaenmawr, had not been to Court, according to evidence given in his favour by Supt. Rees, for the last eight years, he appeared at Monday's Petty Sessions charged both with drunkenness and disorderly conduct. The latter charge naturally came in the wake of the, former.—The case was proved by P.C. Owen (21), and the man was fined 2S. 6d. and costs. THE REV. STEPHEN GLADSTONE will shortly leave Penmaenmawr to spend the remain- der of his holiday in the South of France. DEPARTURE OF THE C. S. S. M.—The Rev S. R. Morse, M.A., with his large band of un- dergraduate helpers from Oxford and Cambridge Universities, conducted his last Mission Service for the present season, on the Promenade on Monday. CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY.—A most successful meeting was held at the Mona Hotel (by kind permission of Mr. and 'Mrs. Todd) on Monday. Addresses were delivered by Arch- deacon Madden, of Liverpool, and the Rev. Mr. Manley. Mr. Henry Kneeshaw, J.P., occupied the chair. THE EISTEDDFOD.—Most of the business places of the town were closed during the whole of Wednesday, to enable the. shop assistants to have a day at the Rhyl Eisteddfod. Large num. bers of the residents also availed themselves of the excursion trains running during the day. ENTER TAINMENTS.- Two entertainments of great interest have been given at the Oxford Hall during the, past week. On Saturday even- ing the local Pierrots provided an interesting programme of minstrel and coon songs, while Monday was reserved for a recital by the world- renowned humorist, Mr. Albert Chevalier. Most of the gentle folk of the district attended on the latter of these days. AN AVENUE OF TREES.—At Tuesday's Council meeting, the Roads, &c., Committee urged upon the Council to take some steps to ornament the main road leading from the L. & N. W. Railway Station to the town. It was re- commended that the whole length of this thor- oughfare be planted with suitable trees, such as those found at Llandudno and many parts of Colwyn Bay. The Council decided to send our circulars inviting visitors and residents of the town to co-operate with the. Council in the matter, by making donations of suitable ever- greens. If the response is a general one, per- haps a similar method will be adopted for the decoration of the Promenade. TOO FREE WITH HIS FISTS.—Charles Neale, butcher, of Augusta Street, Llandudno, the man who committed an assault, at Llandud- no, a week ago, upon a Penmaenmawr visitor, was fined by the Magistrates at Tuesday's Court £ 3 and costs for the offence. It will be remem- bered that Mr. Harrison extended his protection, under rather trying circumstances, to a little girl who was being pursued by the defendant for trespassing upon one of his fields. The in- furiated butcher at once resorted to his fists and hit Mr. Harrison several times in the face. Be- tween the fine and the whole of the costs, these few blows are estimated to have cost the defend- ant close upon £ 10. THE ANNUAL RIFLE CONTEST.—The Fanmaenmawr contingent of the 3rd Battalion, Royal Welsh Fusiliers, again this year, at the annual rifle contest held during Friday and Sat- urday on the Conway Morfa Range, maintains its reputation for good markmanship. During the first day's proceedings, the "F" Company wrested from Conway "The Counties' Silver Challenge Cup," presented for competition, along with a sum of 63, by six gentlemen in the county of Carnarvonshire and six gentlemen from Anglesea. The team representing the town consisted of 8 non. com. officers and men, and fired seven rounds at 500 yards. In the "individual" competitions held on Saturday, Lieut. W. Darbishire distinguished himself by carrying off "The Officers' Prize," presented by Capt. W. A. Tuxford, of the Conway Company. Private J. Jarvis won a first prize of 62 in the "Recruits' Competition," while Col.-Sergt. F. B. Chantrey and Sergt. Coverley occupied 6th and 7th places respectively in the competition for the "1'las Coch Silver Challenge Cup." Private J II. Roberts was awarded a second prize of /1 1 os. offered by Officers for the encourage- ment of "Second Class Shots." ,c_

Music by the Sea. COLWYN BAY PAVILION CONCERTS. PRESENTATION TO MR LESLIE HARRIS. THE EXTENSION OF THE SEASON. The season, unfortunately, is in the wane, but the Victoria Pavilion concerts are more interesting than ever. Speaking generally, the attendance is very satisfactory, showing that the visitors are still delighted with the excellent musical fare set before them, but there should certainly have been more townspeople present on Friday evening, This was the occasion of the Orchestra's benefit, on occasion which one would expect would appeal to the local public. especially seeing that some of the members are so enterprising as to undertake a series of extensive concerts after the close of the ordinary concert season. Apart from the other circumstances, Friday's concert was in every way a delightful one. It was a "Japanese" night, and as usual there was plenty of fun. Mr Collinson was quite at home amongst his gaily dressed musicians, and was himself arrayed in robe which, for magnificence, would make both King Solomon and the Marquis of Anglesey envious. Miss Mildred Evans, A.R.C.M. (soprano), Miss Rosina Beynon (contralto), and Mr Ernest Hastings (humorist), won fresh distinction. Miss Aimee Bebb also gave her services, and again charmed her admirers. Dressed in Japanese costume, she gave a delightful rendering of The Jewel of Asia," and in response to hearty encores gave with much effect a new Japanese song. It would have been a pleasure to see Miss Bebb once more. in one of those pretty musical sketches in which she acts and sings so gracefully. This young debutante has no doubt a brilliant future before her, especially in light opera. Saturday was Nautical Night," in honour of Lifeboat Saturday, and a collection was made on behalf of that noble institution. The concert proved a rich treat, throughout, especially with Mr Leslie Harris and Madame Sadler Fogg on the programme. Mr Leslie Harris had a very agreeable surprise. He was about to leave the stage, after one of his encore items, when lie was met by a gentleman visitor, who asked his acceptance of a gold wateh, the gift of several visitors to the district, amongst them some lady admirers. The clever humorist, fluent and eloquent enough at most times, was now quite at a loss to express his thanks for this splendid token of esteem and appreciation. The audience were delighted to witness such a well-deserved tribute to the Prince of Entertainers. Sunday's concert, conducted by Mr Lyell-Taier, was again most pleasing, and Mr Lyell-Tayler's violin solo did not fail of hearty appreciation. During, the present week Miss Annie Nelson is once again among her most enthusiastic admirers, and her singing is greatly enjoyed. A number of splendid artistes will appear during the last weeks of the season. On Sunday night Madame Sadler Fogg will sing, and on Monday Miss Annie Nelson will be heard. The engage- ments for the week include Miss Violet Ludlow, the Australian Nightingale, Mr. Herbert Brown, the popular Yorkshire tenor, Mr. Emlyn Davies, one of the finest baritones Wales has ever produced, Mr. Nelson Jackson, the popular humorist, and 1 lr. Charles Tree, another famous baritone. Surely, the local public can appreciate talent o 11s excellence. The last concert of the season will ber 24th. This is described as "fashionable Night/' and now M. Lalande, that courteous and esteemed manager, takes his comphmentaiy benefit Such a concert deserves the most hearty support. M Lalande has during the season catered in ex- cellent style for the pleasure of the visitors, and the townspeople have benefited thereby. A supplementary concert will be given on Sunday, the 25th, by members of the Orchestra, whose enterprise also merits support. They will continue the concerts for a week, provided the response on the part of the residents and visitors is anything like reasonable. Instead of a concert on Friday, the 30th, the Orchestra give a grand Cinderella Dance in the Public Hall. Single tickets are 3s. double tickets, 5s., and may be obtained at the Pier of Mr W. Pryce Davies, who will be the Master of Ceremonies oil the occasion. Let the townspeople unite in finishing up the season in brilliant style. Tho Victoria Pier Vocal Society are continuing their practice under the baton of Mr Lyell-Tayler. Arrangements have been made with Madame D'Oyley Carte for permission to perform The Gondoliers," and copies of the music have been distributed amongst the members of the choir. Poo'e's celebrated Myriorama will be shown at the Pavilion on October 31st. "Jane," an amusing comedy, will be presented at the Public Hall on September 19th, 20th, and 21st, by Mr Stafford's "Private Secretary" Company.
Colwyn Bay Education Authority.
Colwyn Bay Education Authority. ABERGELE'S HOSTILE ATTITUDE. The monthly meeting of the Cohvyn Bay and District Education Authority was held on Wednes- day afternoon, in the new Council Chamber. The Chairman (the Rev John Edwards) presided, and there were also present Messrs Hugh Hughes (Col- wyn Bay), Robert Evans (Colwyn), George Bevan (Colwyn Bay), Owen B. Lloyd, H. E. Pritchard (Abergele), Mrs J. Berth Jones and Mrs T. M. Jones, together with the Clerk, Mr F. J. Holmes, and the County Organiser (Mr J. Davies, M.A.). VICAR OF BRYNYMAEN'S PROPOSITION. Several letters were read apologising for non- attendance of members, one of these being from the Rev Meredith J. Hughes, Vicar of Brynymaen, who was down to propose a resolution with regard to the appointment of head masters. Mr Hughes stated that he was attending the National Eistedd- fed at Rhyl. It was decided that the matter be postponed, Mr Bevan remarking that they should help Mr Hughes to encourage one of the best national institutions they had in Wales. Mr Davies said he was in a position to inform them that the matter had already been taken up and that the local managers would have the selection of masters, who would then have to be approved by the general authority. The Chairman said he considered that Mr Davies's statement was most satisfactory. A NEW MEMBER. The Llanfairtalhaiarn Parish Council wrote intimating that they had appointed Mr O. B. Jones, Ty'n-y-ffrith, as their representative on the Committee. The Chairman said he was glad to see Mr Lloyd among them. and hoped that they would all get on well together. RESIGNATIONS. A letter was read from Mr William Foulkes, B.Sc., of the Higher Grade School, Colwyn Bay, resigning his position, having been appointed to a vacancy at the Intermediate School, Bootle. It was decided to advertise for a successor at a salary of {125. Mr Phillips, of the Elementary School, also wrote enclosing his resignation, and it was decided to advertise in this case also.' Mr J. C. Davies pointed out that in the case of appointing assistant masters the procedure was exactly the reverse of that in the case of Head Masters. In the latter case the district managers made the selection, and sent up two applicants for final selection by the Central Authority, while in the case of assistant masters the educational committee make the selection and send three names to the district managers for final approval. It was also stated that in public Elementary Schools maintained, but not provided by the local educational authority, assistant teachers and pupil teachers may be appointed, if it is thought fit without reference to religious creed and denomina- tion, and, in any case in which there are more candidatess for the post of pupil teachers than there are places to be filled, the appointment shall be made by the local educational authority, and they shall determine the respective qualifications of the candidates by examination or otherwise. Mr Owen Jones, Abergele, said he had heard on good authority that some of the children living at Pensarn had been refused admission to the Infant School, Abergele. The Attendance Officer said that during the life of Mrs Hesketh, Gwrvch, she insisted that the children of Pensarn should attend the Towyn Schools. The Chairman said it was a very serious matter, and should be dealt with, as the children would suffer if the information was correct. On the proposal of Mr Pritchard it was decided to write to the Mistress of the Abergele School, asking for an explanation. THE HIGHER GRADE SCHOOL. A long and somewhat lively discussion took place upon the application of the local Committee to have the Higher Grade School recognised as a Secondary School. The Rev. John Edwards moved that they re- quest the County Educational Committee to apply to the Board of Education to recognise the Colwyn Bay Higher Grade School as a Secondary School. Mr Pritchard objected to this, as he suggested that it would amount to the establishment of a County School at Colwyn Bay under another name. It was explained to him that although a County School was practically a Secondary School, a Secon- dary School was not necessarily a County School. The Rev. John Edwards pointed out that at the present time the Higher Grade School was doing the work of a Secondary School, and that the building and staff were also the same. Mr Pritchard, however, objected and proceeded at some length to give his objections, which he read from notes. He was frequently informed that lie was departing from the point at issue, but per- sisted in having his say, and finally proposed an amendment entirely opposite to the resolution. On being put to the vote, the resolution was carried by five votes to two. FREE ADMISSION EXAMINATION. It was reported that the following eight scholars had gained the highest number of marks in the free admission examination and were therefore entitled to attend the Higher Grade School for the usual period Winifred Jones, 74 W. Arthur Whitlev 60 Jennie Jenes, 60 Winifred W. Williams 6o Dora Williams, 59; Cath. R. Davies, 57; I. E'. os ins, 55, Alice Jones, 55. The maximum was 85.

Chapel, Deganwy, on September the 27th. A musical or- chestra will be in attendance, Miss W. Morgan Jones presiding at the piano. Mr T. J. Bennett, C.J.E., of Deganwy, is announced to preside. WHAT BECAME OF THE WASHING ?—In July last Mrs Prichard, of Broad Street, Llandudno Junction, left her washing out in her yard one night, but when morning came the clothes had all disappeared. The police were communicated with, but no trace of the missing articles could be found till last Monday, when Mrs Prichard recognised one of her own little girl's pinafores on another child, the daughter of George Burgess, Pen-y-bont, Llandudno Junction. Burgess was recently em- ployed in the neighbourhood of Conway as a coach- man, and is at present a stableman in the Erskine Arms Hotel. The police were immediately notified by Mrs Prichard of the clue she had found, and a search warrant was at once issued, with the resu't that a large quantity of stolen property, principally articles of clothing, were found. Hens were mis- sing from Penrhos Farm, Llandudno Junction, and these were found at Burgess's. All the complaints of theft have been made since Burgess came to live at the Junction. On Wednesday, before Dr. R. A. Prichard, Burgess was formally charged, and re- manded until Monday, in order that the police authorities might investigate a large number of other thefts to which they now think they have found the clue.
