THE GIFT OF NORTH WALES.
THE GIFT OF NORTH WALES. At the suggestion of the Lord-Lieutenant of Carnarvonshire (John Ernest Greaves, Esq), and the Committee of presentation, it was proposed that the present to T.R.H. should take the form of a casket, by adopting a model, in silver, of the ancient castle of Carnarvon. Messrs Elkington and Co., of Liverpool, were therefore entrusted with the order from a special design, which received the sanction of the North Wales Recep- tion Committee. The artist has most faithfully carried out the striking features and architectural details of the noble ruins of this famous historical castle, celebrated as the birthplace of Edward II., first Prince of Wales. The model rests on a massive silver oblong plateau with rounded ends. The lower moulding is formed of a richly-chased border of laurel leaves and berries, typical of the ancient military renown of the Welsh nation. The upper moulding represents a border of reeds, bound together with ribbons, intend (I to sym- bolise the union of Wales with England. On the intervening space between the upper and lower mouldings, a series of heraldic shields are intro- duced on a chased ground-work. These shields are all beautifully emblazoned in glowing gold and enamelled proper colours. Thus we have the arms of the first Prince of Wales, the Arms of the Prince and Princess of Wales, and twelve other Coats of Arms, all bearing allusions to Counties in Wales and Welsh National History. Provision is "made in the plateau for a drawer, wherein is deposited an illuminated address of welcome in album form.

Additional Particulars. In addition to the picocs already mentioned, a verse of Mwro^'s ode was snng by the children OIl the Promenade platform. The Address was presented by the Town Clerk, and taken as read, the Prince handing back his written reply. The bells of St. Thomas' Church were set ringing during the afternoon. The ceremony at the Hospital was a very pretty one. The bright dresses worn by the large number of ladies who were present and the pretty costumes of the children made the whole scene one of the brightest description. The little ones filed past the table and Her Royal Highness kindly received their purses. One of the most touching sights, and which should appeal to the hearts of all who feel interested in the Hospital, was that witnessed when two of the patients of the Hospital appeared on crutches and presented purses. Her Royal High- ness received them with an appreciative expression. Cheer after cheer rent the air as the Royal Party left the Hospital, after having thanked those who had had the care of the arrangements for the admirable way in which all had been carried out.
----------------THE DEAR FAMILY…
THE DEAR FAMILY NAME. It can never be, Mr. Fish," said she, trying to be firm, although the tears were welling up in her forget-me-not eyes. Why not, Genevieve ?" he asked, bending towards her until she could dis- tinctly hear him swallow the lump that had risen in his throat at her words. Don't you love me any more Yes, yes I love you. Believe me, I love you," she sobbed, hastily drawing her hand from his. Tell me!" ho asked with anguish, "have you learned to love another?" "No!" she cried. U Oh, how could you doubt me 7" ".Well, then, why have you changed?" "It is —it is-oh, how can I say it t" she jerked out. If It is—it is-your name." "My name 7" he echoed. It is among the best known, as well as yours, Miss Codd." You wrong me. You wrong me greatly," she sobbed, drawing off his ring. "I mean, I can never be yours, because it would break mamma's heart to sink the family name, and how could I become Mrs. Codd-Fish f'
A NARROW ESCAPE, i
A NARROW ESCAPE, He had just got outside Euston Station, when hIS face turned ashen grey, and with a choking sound in hia throat he clutched at his inside pocket, and darted back under the huge archway like a maniac, overturning a perambulator full of babies, knocking down a small newsboy, and eluding the clutch cf a vigilant policeman, who pursued him at full speed with a roar of "Stop thief, stop!" Stop that train!" he shouted at the top of his voice, as he sprang through the entrance of the booking office, tripped over the rubber mat, and rolled headlong on to the platform. Stop that train, for goodness sake he screamed, and he picked himself up, crushed a woman's bonnet-box, and knocked the breath outof a Liverpool travelling man in his furious flight. Will no one atop that train?" he wailed, aa he fought with a ticket inspector and seven porters, who all took him for a madman, and he again repeated his wild cry, as he broke loose from his aggressors, and ran down the platform on the wings of the wind, waving a parcel over hia head in de. spairing appeal to the guard in the brake. van of the fast disappearing Irish express train. Stop that train, for the sake of all that's dear!" he howled, aa he butted a dignified old gentleman in the waistcoat, and upset a truck and fifteen portmanteaus. Stop that train shouted the porters, "Stop that train!" whooped the passengers waiting for other trains. "Stop that train I" shrieked the dishevelled and terror- stricken man, pallid with fear. Stop that train I" There was a grinding of wheels far out on the line, and a snort of steam as the engine stopped. Then slowly the great train was backed along the plat- form again. The guard leaped to the ground and ran back, pale with anxiety, to the spot. The passengers climbed halfway out of the windows with starting eyes, and the breathless man, darting up to a third-class carriage, hung gaspingly to the rail, as he handed a small parcel to a severe-look- ing elderly woman inside. When the train had once more started out of the station, and the man recovered breath a little, ho blurted out by way of explanation to the enraged station-master, They was Maria's ourlin' tongs. She'd a fair done for me if I'd a forgot 'em." And with this ex. planation the station-master had to express himself fairly content.

CHILDHOOD is not pleasant, whatever the poets may say adolescence is mere purgatory young manhood a wild dream and then we are pushed, like drunken Bailors, on the ship of serious life.— Vanity Fair. GOSSIP is not always nnwelcome, but it should mot have a permanent form. Let it be forgotten, as soon as it has fulfilled its function of amusing. A joke that is good enough for the moment is apt to grow terribly vapid by being kept.—Spectator. IT is not always pleasant to ask one's self ques- tions about the friends of one's youth they cannot always well support it. Carlyle, for instance, in my judgment, cannot well support such a return upon him, Yet we should make the return we should part with our illusions, we should know the truth.—Matthew Arnold. THE real prime of life is when young muscles are like twisted cords, of the finest Bessemer steel (you don't care much about girls at that time) and your lungs like the bellows that blow the smelting furnace; when you have only to say one pretty thing and to show your white teeth and twist up the ends of your youthful moustache, and any pretty girl you want just sighs once and tumbles into your arms. That is the prime of life. It is all over when you begin to call for your dinner and grumble at the breakfast buttered toast. When you have become a judge of wine it is indeed time to leave the arena and accept the gladiator's giftof the wooden sword. -lunity Fair. THIS is an age of apologies and rehabilitations. The I lackest characters of history have been sedulously whitewashed—which however generally involves the blackwashing of others hitherto deemed respectable, if not immaculate-and we have been called upon to recognise Nero as a model of domestb affection and Henry VIII. as a singular example of conjugal fidelity. Societies, like individuals, have undergone a similar process of tidying up, to use a homely phrase. Their real or supposed incrustations of dirt have been mopped with a mop and brushed with a broom," in the forcible language of the Baby's Debut," till the reputed blackamoor becomes white as driven snow, —Saturday R< cl> <r. ABOUT AXTS. —Any one who watches an ant's nest may see the insects at play with each other. One of their favourite games is for one ant to pick up another in its jaws, carry it for some little distance, and then put it down. The plwrnate meanwhile curls itself into a ball, tucks in ite legs, and comports itself so that it may be more easily carried. They keep domestic pets in the form of a tiny species called Stcnamma Westwoodii. It pos- sesses no popular title, as it is so small—scarcely the tenth of an inch in length-and is only found in the nests of other ants, the Wood Ant seeming to be its favourite host. "The Stenammas," writes Sir J. Lubbock, "follow the Formicas when they change their nest, running about among them, and between their legs, tapping them inquisitively with their anteniaw, and sometimes eyen Climbing on their banks, as for a ride, while the larger ants seem to take little notice of them. They almost seem to be the dogs, or, perhaps, rather the cats, of the ants." The same observer goes on to mention that there is an allied species of much the same size, Solenopsis fugax, which harbour in the nests of larger auts, and, instead of being a pet for them, is a deadly foe. It makes its own galleries and tunnels within those of its unwilling hosts, and carries off theif larvse as food. Owing to the small size of its burrows, the plundered ants cannot follow it. In fact, "it is as if we had small dwarfs, about eighteen inches to two feet high, harbouring in the walls of our houses, and every now and then carrying off some of our children into their horrid dens." Mr. F. Smith states that Southend and Deal are the only localities of this ant that came within his personal knowledge. As, however, both these places were his favourite hunt- ing grounds, it is probable that if he had visited many other parts of this country his experienced eye would have detected this very obnoxious ant. The variation in size among ants is, by the way, as well marked as it is among the higher animals, and the proportions of the largest and smallest ant are much the same as those of the elephant and the mouse. Some ants, especially those belonging to the genus Componotus, are as large as our hornets, while others, such as the too com- mon house ant, Myrmica molesta, is only the fifteenth of an inch in length, and so slender that its pale yellow body is hardly discernible if it be alone. But it very seldom is alone. Minute as are its individual dimensions, collectively it is so formidable an insect that it has rendered houses uninhabitable. The houses have had the floors relaid, cement and porcelain tiles used wherever possible, but the house ants have retained posses- sion of the premises.—Htv, J, G. Wood, in tht Sunday Magazine, Printed and Published by :JEARC & JOXES at 30, Iligii Street, Rhyl, in the Parish Rhuddlan, County of Flint.
MISCELLANEOUS.
MISCELLANEOUS. Good humour prevailed generally among the crowds in town to-day. The police arrangements were in charge of Major Webber, Superintendent Hughes, and Inspector Williams, and the men paraded to their various beats at 10.30. Their duties mainly consisted in giving directions to the public. The street hoardings were put up by the Com- missioners, under the direction of the Town Surveyor (Mr Robert Hughes), who had to dis- charge many onerous duties in connection with the visit. The carriages and livery for members of public bodies were provided by Messrs Williams, Alex- andra Hotel Parry, White Lion Hotel; F and J Heathcote, Farmers George Brookes, Prince of Wales David Salusbury, Glanglasfor William Pendleton Jos Owen, and H Davies. This evening's banquet at the Town Hall is to be catered for by Mrs Lowe, of the Westminster Hotel; and the Chairman of Commissioners will, as a matter of course, occupy the presidential chair. We have been supplied with the following description of the presentation album :-It is in the form of a handsome quarto volume bound in levant moroftco, inlaid in gold and colours, the hand tooling of the design being most tastefully executed, the Prince's plume occupying the centre of the front cover inlaid in proper colours, the Royal Arms holding the same position on the back of the volume. The pages of the book are of fine vellum, mounted into' thick inflexible leaves, hinged, album fashion. The work throughout is most charmingly illuminated in the style of the celebrated MfeS. of the middle ages. The first page is the title, and contains the words The Loyal Address of the Rhyl Improvement Com- missioners to I heir Royal Highnesses The Prince and Princess of W ales on the occasion of their visit to Rhyl to lay the Foundation Stone of the New Royal Alexandra Hospital, July 13th, 1894." This page, with its nuhly-illuminated initials and ornamentation, gives the key to the decoration of the entire work, which is of the late XV century period of illuminating. The text of the address itself occupies the three iollowing pages, similarly decorated, terminating with the date of presenta- sion and the autograph signatures of P Mostyn Williams, Chairman of Commissioners, and Arthur Rowlands, Clerk of the Commissioners. The seal of the Commissioners in wax is embedded in the thickness of the page, while views of the Town Hall, Rhyl beach, Rhuddlan Castle, and Royal Alexandra Hospital occupy each a separate page. A series of special devices appear on the reverse side of each page, viz., the Royal Dragon of Wales, with the Welsh motto Ddraig goch a ddyry gychwyn," the Royal Standard, the Seal of the Commissioners, with the view of the bridge painted in colours, and various other national, loyal, and patriotic mottoes and devices. The work was executed by Messrs Marcus Ward & Co., Belfast, to the order of Messrs Trehearn and Aiusworth, of this town.

DEATH IN THE STRFET AT RHYL.
DEATH IN THE STRFET AT RHYL. Yesterday afternoon Mr W Davies, Coroner, held an inquest at the Town Hall, Rhyl, upon the body of John Evans, of Rhostyllen, Mold, who suddenly expired on the East Parade on Wednes- day afternoon. The Jury sworn was as follows: Messrs Hugh Edwards, 37 Wellington Road T 0 Tcale, Crescent Terrace Peter Thomas, Queen Street; T W Roose, Bedford Street R T Row- lands, 8 North Terrace J T Jones, Aled House R Kitchen, 25 John Street A J Jones, 41 Cres- cent Road T Abbott, Bedford Street J Dowcll, Packet Hotel J E L Jones, 162 Wellington Road. Ann Gusson, residing at 5 West Street, identi- fied the body of the deceased. lie had lodged with her for three weeks, and said he was a collier when he came. Deceased first worked at the Mud- lake, then at haymaking, and on Wednesday deceased went to work on the decorations of the town. That was at 7 a.m., and lie never returned. She next heard that he was dead. Deceased said he came from Holywell but was a native of Mold, and intended to send for his two eons, who weie working at a colliery, to see the decorations at Elly]. John Collins, a joiner, of Liverpool, said he Wi'S engaged by Messrs Womersley and Co., of Leeds, to assist in the decorating of Rhyl for the Royal visit. Deceased was also engaged by the same firm At 2.20 on the previous day the deceased was on the Parade with a hand-cart, and he asked witness if he was the man lie was sent to. Wit- ness replied in the affirmative, and also asked de- ceased if he had a few tacks in his pocket with which to fasten the flag. Deceased answered Yes," and was in the act of feeling in his pocket when he turned and fell down, Ilying in a few minutes. Dr Girdlestone was sent for, and pro- nounced life to be extinct. William Evans, of Rhostyllen, said the deceased had two sons who worked at the place. The Jury returned a verdict that the deceased died from "Natural causes."

To-day's Proceedings.
its face and to join in the general rejoicing, as it looks out beneath the banners which are placed above it, and which, blown about by the breeze, lend life and colour to the surroundings. Be- neath the stoLO frieze there is placed a crimson and gold valance running around the sides of the building in Wellington road aud Water street. Above this and on three pidcs of the clcck tower are three sppcial large shields with fl igs, trophies, Ac. In addition to these and several other orna- mentations, gas devices are arranged and will be illuminated this evening. From the apex of the tower flags from poles, with lines of streamers connected with the ventilators and other points of vantage are arranged. Over tho principal en- trance to the Town Hall in Water Street a very handsome Prince of Wales's feathers is placed, flanked by large shields and trophii s of flags. Oo the gable end, facing Qucen-strcct, and in full view of the occupants of tho royal carriage as it enters Wellington Road from Bodfor Street, a specially designed shield and trophy is placed, greatly brightening that portion of the building. The whole of the decorations at the Town Hall have been carried out with considerable taste and splendid effect. Proceeding elong the 700 yards of street at Wellington Road the perspective is most pleasing. It really seems that one is walking along a street in some southern town during carniral time. This splendid stretch ot road has afforded excel- lent opportunities for decoration purposes. Both fides are dotted with Venetian masts. Lines of streamers aro also stretched from the head to centre of each alternate mast. The iunction of Wellington Read and Kintnel Street Las been taken advantage of, and there is here a flord canopy. Several different coloured Venetian masts are arranged so that their Royal Highnesses pass beneath garlands of artificial flowers, a floral basket forming the centre. Each mast also has a coloured pedestal. The decorations of River Street are the same as those in Welling toa Road, but at the Parade end there is a very pretty motto arch Welcome to Hhyl." It is most appropriate that this arch shonld havo been erected at the spot where the rnyal party will first enter on the Parade and have an opportunity of seeing the very fine Promenadeof which the town is justly proud. The whole length of the East and West Parade from the Palace and Summer Gardens toTarleton Street is handsomely decoratcd. Venetian masts, green and red, line each side of the carriage drive, and carry the usual gilt spear head, trophy, and shield with banners. The lines of streamers are here placed across, and the effect is very pretty. The Lord Mayor's Fountain has come in for a special mark of favour, and is enc'o?ed within a garland of flowers. It is handsomely decoratcd, the Venetian masts being connected with each other from head to centre with garlands of artificial flowers, and there are other floral ar- rangements entwining around the masts as they spring from handsomely decorated bases. This fountain has been decorated with care and atten- tion, and the Rowley Conwy Fountain has been treated in a like manner. Each panel has a crim- son background for the shields and trophies on each side. Festoons of flowers and coloured drapery are also prettily arranged with a large Piince of Wales Feathers at the top. From the corners of the apex of the lamp streamers are carried to the nearest masts. Situated as the fountain is at tbe top of High Street the decora- tions form a most pleasing sight and can be seen from a considerable distance. One of the chief portions of the decorations is that which has been carried out in High Street. It was decided by the Decoration Committee that the principal business thoroughfare should receive special attention, and it has been so. The decora- tions are as near as possible like those carried out by Messrs Womersley and Co. at Cross Street, Manchester, on the 21st of May when the Queen visited that city. Each alternate mast is of different colour, red and green, carrying festoons of artificial flowers longitudinally from the centres Lines of streamers are also stretched from tho heads of the mast which are supplied with gilt spears and banners. Shields and trophies, are also tastefully arranged. From each mast there is carried across the road a line of artificial flowers with a basket in the centre, thus forming a floral canopy beneath which the royal carriages pass. It is a very pretty sight, and must give the greatest satisfaction to those who have taken an interest in the decoration of our town. Viewed from the Railway Bridge, High- street looks exceedingly pretty, and it can be easily seen that an artist bus designed the decorations and the arrangment. At the corner of Kinmel-st and High-street another floral canopy in keeping with the other elaborate decorations is erected, while Kinmel-street is lined with flag-bedecked masts. Having traversed the whole of the route of the Royal procession to and from the Hospital we turned our attention to the sidr-streets, which have also been decorated by Messrs Womersley, and to- day Sussex street, Queen street, Market.street, Water street, and the High-street end of Welling- ton-read are decorated with lines of large flags 12 yards apart stretched across the road from house to house, and where vacant spaces occur Venetian masts have been placed to carry the fhg's. It certainly appears that everyone has worked with a will to carry to success the public decoration of Rhyl to-day. That it has been a success there cannot be two opinions. Tho Decoration Com- mittee, of which Mr W J Kent is Chairman and Mr Price Williams, Auctioneer, Hon. Secretary, have spent hours over the work, seeing that every detail is carried out as it should be the contractors have also done their very best and have, we are sure, given every satisfaction. Over two miles of streets arc to-day publicly decorated on both sides. PRIVATE DECORATIONS Were still being placed and arranged late thiR morning. The houses in every street through which the Royal Procession passed had been decorated by their occupiers, especially on the East Parade and near the Railway Station. The station itself had been handsomely decorated. The interior of the room in which the booking office is situated was draped with coloured material in a most tasteful manner. Flags were picturesquely placed here and there, and outside bunting was to be seen floating from every point of vantage. Im- mediately over the entrance was the Prince of Wales' plume, and on the centre of the verandah beneath which the royal carriage drew up the arms of the London and North VVestern Railway Company were placed trophy-like. Lines of flags stretched across to the adjacent buildings. The work of decoration here had been carried out by Mr Necle, District Superintendent, and Mr Allen, Stiitionrnaster. Bodfor Street looked very pretty. On the roof of Costigan's Hotel stands were erected and the decorations consisted of red drapery, flags, and trophies. The Grosvonor Temperance Hotel by its side had also had great attention paid to its ap- pearance. The Bee Hotel had various coloured drapery tastefully arranged from the windows and the adjacent houses were also very prettily adorned with plumes, shields, flags, &c. Proceeding up Bodfor street we noticed that the newly painted Imperial Hotel had been well-decorated, and here flags and shields were arranged with pleasing effect. Campling's carriage-works also dis- played flowers and shields, and the establishment of Mrs A. Williams was quite different to the others in decorations. Very good results were obtained with the use of coloured drapery and a large Prince of W ales' feathers was arranged as a centre piece. Mr Jos. Williams had in addition to other designs an illuminated gas star for to-night. The Albion Hotel was the other principally decorated place on that side of the street. Mr Osborne had placed the letters V.R. above his shop with taste, and beneath these the coloured drapery losely placed in position added greatly to the effect. The other places of business on that side of Bodfor-street had also been decorated, and Prince of Wales plumes and flags were to be seen on each. Special attention had likewise been paid to the Wynnstay Hotel on the corner of Kinmel-street, where the decorations harmonised with the arch opposite. Facing Bod for-street is the shop of Messrs Jones Bros., and here there was more than ordinary care bestowed on the arranging of the several plumes and trophies. Proceeding along Wellington-road it was noticed that <he buildings opposite the Town Hall had carefully arranged drapery from the windows, and there was a profusion of flags at the North Wales Hotel. Not many of the houses in Wellington-road were decorated, but the balcony of the residence facing Kiver-street had crimson and gold cloth, and other artistic arrangements pleasing to the eye. jSIosfc of the houses in River-street wero more or less adorned with flags, &c. On the West Parade the decorations at places were unique. Harborne House had blue cloth from each of the windows, bouquets of flowers, shields, and trophies, and a. large Royal Arms. Nos 59, 57, 54, 53, and 51 were adorned with coloured cloth, fringes, flags, &c. No. 48 looked very pretty with its red and white, and blue and white drapery, and No 47 was also neatly decorated with flowers. No 44 and 43 had many decorations, while No 42, Alexandra House, deserves special mention. Jtfo doubt the fact of the name being that of our Princess accounted for the extra care which had been bestowed thereon. Several of the other houses were dccorated, the next notable one being Moseley House, where coloured drapery lent life to the surroundings. No. 32 and 33 were decorated with blue and red cloths. Chilwcll's Boarding Establish- ment at the corner of Water-street had blue cloths from the windows, shields and trophies, with Prince of Wales' feathers, and over the Water- street entrance a large Royal Arms was placed. No. 16 with its red and gold decorations looked also very pretty, and the same arrangement was adopted ae The Ferns. No. 5, was adorned with blue and red, and the next house with gold and maroon. The decorations at the Queen's Hotel was really grand. Pale blue and red delicate drapery was arranged along the whole front, and there was a splendid floral arcii across the Parade' This latter was of a very pretty design, and bore words of welcome to our Prince and Princess. The houses at the beginning of the East Parade were made gay with window cloths, shields and trophies. Sedgley House, the resi dence of Dr. Girdlestone, looked very pretty with its tri-colour drapery, and the Belvoir Hotel was the more noticeable, as the balconies had been covered over with gold edged blue cloth. Flags have been freely used, and several large en- signs floated above. At the Westminster Hotel a large Royal arms and Prince of Wales's feathers were placed over the entrance. Nos. 13, 14, and 15 were decorated prettily with green and gold. Alongside the Alexandra Homes the stand-erected had also been arranged tastefully. The residence of Dr Eyton Lloyd was decorated with red flags, &c., and the other houses along the East Parade with similar arrangements. High Street presented a very pretty appearance Mr Pugh had placed at both of his establishments evergreens and drapery, while Mr Foulkcs de- corated with more than ordinary care. Here wel- come mottos were arranged. At the Royal Hotel the Royal arms ornamented the principal entrance, and at the establishment of Miss Jones and Mr Dew the same devices were adopted, to- gether with trophies, flags, and the Prince of Wales's plumes. The Magnet Buildings were the object of special attention, the design of de- coration consisting of small ensigns tastefully arranged. At the Post Office the upper stories were decorated. Mr Argent made a little depar- ture from the usual form, green on a red cloth background being here shown. Russell Buildings, Mr Frimston's, and Mr D Evans' establishment also looked pleasing, while the Mostyn Hotel had the stage in front covered with pale blue and red, and trophies on the wall. At Mr Roger Price's two rows of drapery were stretched across with very pretty effect, the yellow and green of the lower row being in striking contrast with the rsd, white and blue above. At the corner of Russell Road Messrs Haelifortli and Co. had a larsre royal arms, with flags neatly arranged around. The White Lion and Alexandra Hotels, and the New Inn were decorated with real flowers, and were much admired. Singer's Sewing Machine Co, the Old Town Hall Stores, Mr J 0 Jones', and Mr Priec, also deserve mention. At the Dudley Hotel several rows of streamers were stretched across the road to the bridge, on which flags floated on posts. At Mr Millward's and the Journal offices displays were made. The millinery establishment of Miss Jones was like a richly- laden flower garden, and immediately opposite a large screen of Welcome was erected. In the other streets there were a few decorations the more noticeable being the cycle establishment of Mr Connah, and the County Club. The latter was covered with flags and the other usual decora- tions. Messrs Owens, in Water Street, who trade by special appointment "to the Queen and the Prince of Wales, had the Royal Arms above their shop prettily displayed. In Aquarium Street and Crescent Road there were several neat decorations. The Men's Convalescent Home had bunting on the walls. At many residences flags were hung from the upper windows, and almost every house along the route had some sort of decoration. The Palace and Gardens were ornamented with flags, bunting, &c. Special arrangements have been made at several places for illuminations to-night, an account of which will appear in our next issue, together with a report of the banquet at the Town Hall.
