LIFEBOAT SATURDAY DEMONSTRATION…
LIFEBOAT SATURDAY DEMONSTRATION AT RHYL SAND HOLE COMPETITION. I Witl. the Jaudable object of enriching the funds of the National Lifeboat Institution a demonstra- tion was held at ¡: II} I on Saturday, and was a pleasing sncc-.ss from rv..ry point of viow. The weather was all tn:1t could ba desired, the bright 8un shining fiercely as it did from a cloudiesi sky, being tempered with a cooling breeze. Under !Inch conditions it was not to be wondered at that the arrangpmpnts wfro carried out to the letter, and great credit is due to those who were respon- sible for the arrangements. The sand-hole compe- tition took place on Friday night, and was witnessed by a continual procession of spectators Some splendid designs were made ra the sand by the children, most of them being very skilfully and artistically formed. This remark applies to the winner in the class for children over 14, in which .Miss Chilwell, of the West Parade, gained first prize for a very appropriate and original design of a lifeboat, which included sculls, lifebuov, etc. The bolt was beantifnlly illuminated at dusk with various coloured Chinese lanterns, fairy lamps and candles. It was the centre of attraction, and congratulations to the winners were heard on all hands. It was certainly the means of getting money, for no-one could conscientiously look on this clever piece of work without contributing a little to the noble Institution. The second prizf was awarded to the Misses Clara Dillon and Broagh, for a capital piece of work which, when illuminated at dark, presented a very pretty appearance, the delicate ct)loured streamers setting it off to perfection. In the class for young children Miss E Miller was placed first, with a « ^ditable display for a child of such tender years. Master A Thurston, of Wolverhampton, was awarded second prize, and Master J Pearson, of Wellington Road. third. There were about tlinty entries, ail of which aV,) evidence of much time spent and skill displayed on the part of the children. These little ones have certainly done their share towards the Lifeboat Institution, for each competitor handed a goodly sum over to the tra-urer. The following was the result of the sand hole competition Class A (children under 14) — 1 Miss E Miller, Sussex Street 2 Master A Thurston. Wolver. hampton Master J Pearson, Wellington Road 4 Miss Gladys Hughes, Water Street 5 Miss Priscilla Ellis, 9 Edward Henry Street; f; Master H owell Williams, Abbey Street. Clans B (children over 14).—1 Miss Chilwell, West Parade; 2 Miss Clara Dillon and Miss Brough 3 Miss F Painter, High Street. The duties of judging were ablv aDd satisfac- torily carried out by Mr P J As'bfield and Mr J Aidney, and the prizes were ditributed at the Ilerrie Men's' stand on Saturday morning by Mrs Pierce-Lewi*, wife of the Secretary of the Local Committee of tho atinllallustitntion. The lifeboat procession started about I o'clock from the top of High Street, and proceeded through the main strefts of the town. Crowds gathered along the line of route. The procession was headed by the Parade Band, followed by the Rhyi Fire Brigade, with steamer and men dressed in full uniform. Then came the Rhuddlan Fire Brigade, followed by a detachment of Mr E H Williams' Merrie Men on donkeys, while the Pienotts were seat-ed in a large brake. About two companies of the Ctewe Lads' Brigade with their bngle band brought up the rear. Snapshots wei f taken along the route bv the Cinematograph Company from the Bijou Theatie. Along the route collectors were busy on every hand some carried long bamboo poles with bags attached for the purpose of reaching the upstairs windows, and others carried its and life buoys, while several others raked in the money with a backet (Charlie Drew's own idea), a sack, box, fireman's he! met, Ac. We are informed that about £ -50 was collected from all sources. A Jlower stall on the Parade was the means of getting a welcot,i-- um tvr the Institution (jilts of flowers and fmit were sent- by Lady Florentia Hughes, of Kinlllel; Alls Kowby Conwy, Bod- rhyddan Mrs Lloyd Howard, Wigfair; Dr Prichaid, Rhyl; Mr lireeuslade, Ithvi Mr Brown, Botanical Gardens, Rhyl Councillor T D Jones.

About L'l 18s was taken at this fetal]. The lifeboat was bunched in the evening in the presence of a vety large crowd of spectators. The sea was very calm, and therefore the Captain only tock his men on a shoit trip round the end of the P e. It is interesting to note some of the amounts collerted on Saturday. Prizes were given by tradesmen of the town for the largest amounts. The first prize was secured by that popular come- dian Charlie Drew, who, as before stated, collected his money in a bncket. The Pierrott troupe collected £4 os Old., and the Merrie Men £t) 12s 2d., .while Miss Deacon and Miss Mason both 2 handed in larce sums.

A sense of indisposition to exertion loss of strength, faintness, langour, and depression of spirits, are classed under the common name of debility.

WHAT A TIMELY USE WOULD DO. Consumption implies consuming, decaying, wasting away. Hence, any form ot disease that shows I-cay ur "wasting of any of the bodily powers, without the ability to convert the food, which mT^v be taken, into fresh power to arrest the progress of this decline, is Consumption. A timely use of Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters, the Vegetable Tonic, to waken up the bodily powers to new life, would arrest the disease, and, indeed, banish it from the system. The impoverished blood in the human system may be made rich in all the elements of vitality, bringing strength to the system, freedom from pain to the body, and comfort to the homo, by u-ii)g Gwilym Evans' Quinine Bitters.

----_-----"-MACMILLAN'S PUBLICATIONS.
MACMILLAN'S PUBLICATIONS. Mr A H J Greenidge, author of a previous volume on Greek Constitutional History, cortri. bntes to Messrs Macmillan's Series of Handbooks of Archaeology and Antiquities an account of Roman Pnblic Life which brings together much information that the student cannot elsewhere conveniently hnd, and includes the whole subject in a clear and coherent ttatement. This study of Republican institutions occupies three fourths of the book the last hundred pages, after describing the transition to the Principal, discusses in the same way the position, functions, and attributes of the pr'nc-eps and of the magistracies aud the Senate in relation to him; and explain the re- organization of domestic and provincial govern- ment and the changes in religious ritual under the early Empire. Messrs Macmdlan publish for the Jewish His- torical Society of England Mr Lucien Wolf's edition (with an ample historical introduction) of the pamphlets relating to Menasseh Ben Isr,-e' ''s Mission to Cromwell,' when the Jews expelled from the British Isles by Edward 1. were seeking re-admission to England. A reproduction of Rembrandt's portrait of Menasseh accompanies the volume. The introduction briefly sketches the subsequent history of the Jews' position in England as well as the i ragic end of Menasseh himself. The Dictionary of Philosophy and Psychology,' of which the Macmillan Company publish the first volume, is a very great undertaking. The general editor, Professor Baldwin, has had the co-operation of an international board of consult- ing editors, five representing England, four each for Germany and France, and three for Italy: the terminology being given in the four languages. All articles of any importance have, before the final editorial revision, been prepared by two or more contributors, one acting as critic and reviser in many cases they have then been submitted to one or more of the consulting editors, The treat- ment is primarily that of a dictionary; not that of an encyclopedia. The articles are of three sorts: tirst, concise definitions: second, such definitions with the addition of certain historical I and expository matter, running to several hundred words; third, articles called 'special,' on topics which seemed, in view of either of the general purposes set forth above, to call for extended treatment. These last are of encyclopasdie charac- ter, varying in length from one thousand to five thousand words. Important movements in the history of philosophy, the general divisions of the topic Philosophy itself, and select subjects in all of the general departments of science, have this special treatment. In most cases these select articles have the further justification that they are written with a vie.v to gathering into a general presentation and resume many of the subordinate topics treated in a more detached way in their respective places. The bibliography has been made a special feature. Under each topic the leading references will be given. Bat the thiid volume will consist entirely of general bibliographies and it is intended to supplement the Psychological Index thus formed by continual publication in the Psychological Review.' The work will include in its purview the whole of existing science—physical, natural, and moral as well as the criticism on science to which the term philosophy has often been limited. This inclusion has involved a corresponding exclusion, and the work does not profess to be a complete dictionary of Greek and Scholastic philosophy, though select glossaries of representative terms are given under the articles on Greek and Latin Terminology. The editors accept unreservedly the growing im- portance of psychology, and the facing of philoso- phy towards science and modern life instead of towards logic and ancient life.

_n_n_ It Improves Cake wonderfully when a little \| Corn Flour is used. Corn Flour is splendid for N making Fresh Fruit Jellies. It's excellent to mix with ordinary flour for making Pie- Crusts, Tarts, and Pastries. Orange or Lemon Cream made with Corn Flour is delicious. In fact, there are scores of ways in which Corn Flour can be used to advantage. A number of excellent re- cipes easily made and costing little, can be had in a little booklet from Brown & Poison, Paisley, by sending a penny stamp. ASK FOR Brown & Poison's "PATENT"Corn Flour
SWIMMING GALA AT RHYL. I f
SWIMMING GALA AT RHYL. f Glorious weather favoured the holding of the annual Gala of the Rhyl Amateur Swim- ming Club, on Saturday afternoon. That delightful spot,the Marine Lake-was the venue of the raccs, and thither crowds of peo- ple wended their way in the hope of witnessing an enjoyable afternoon's sport. They were certainly not disappointed, for it was said on all hands that a more successful gala had never been held in the history of the club. The programme was a good one, and the various events were well contested, many exciting finishes being witnessed. This speaks well for the handicapping, which was entrusted to a committee of club members. The duties of starter were excellently carried out by Mr J Roberts Jones, while Mr R Llewellyn Jones, C.C., officiated as judge in a most satisfactory manner. Mr T J Davies discharged the sec- retarial duties iqi a manner which calls for the highest praise, indeed the club rejoices in a capable body of officials, all of whom spare neither time nor trouble in furthering its interests. There was only one open race, that being the 100 yards scratch, which was won in line style by F Price, Chester, who just beat Wynne Denton of Rhyl after a tine struggle. Roger W .Tones proved himself a clever swimmer under water, and was also second in the diving competition, which was won by Ivor Morris, whose graceful diving called forth loud applause. The fo yards handicap for youths under 16 was a fast race, Tom Jones just heading F Williams by a foot, while Vernoti Jones secured the 100 yards with tive seconds start. The 50 yards race was won by T J Williams, and in the swimming on the back event, Wynne Denton and T R Jones reached the pole at the same time, and the first and second prizes were divided. The top hat and umbrella race caused some fun, but most merriment was created in walking the greasy pole, must of the competitors being precipitated into the water before having walked many feet. James Keen proved quite an expert, and won easily, Vernon Jones being second. A burlesque Aquatic Pantomime was given by members of the club in costumes, and exhibi- tions of high diving and ornamental swimming were also given by members, in the un- avoidable absence of Mr Hunt. The prizes were afterwards presented to the successful competitors by Mrs R Llewellyn Jones. The following were the results 100yards scratch (open) 1, F Price, Chester S.C.WynDe Denton, Rhyl A.S.C.

LLANDUDNO MAGISTRATES AND…
LLANDUDNO MAGISTRATES AND STREET ORGANS. REV JOHN WOOD AS THEIR SCAPE-COAT. At the Llandudno Police Court on Thursday morning, two Italian organ-grinders, husband and wife, were brought up before Dr Dalton and Mr R Roberts, charged with playing a barrel organ in Clifton-road that morning and refusing to move when requested to by a constable, and with refus- ing to giving their names and addresses. Mr R S Chamberlain prosecuted on behalf of the Urban Council, the otfence being a breach of the bye- ou I laws. After hearing the evidence Dr Dalton said he was not prepared to convict two organ-grinders for organ playing when the District Council permitted greater nuisances. For instance, there was the Rev John Wood, who was an annoyance to the public, and whc created a nuisance nightly on the parade. Mr Robert Roberts said he also was wot prepared to convict, but he pointed out that organ-grinding was becoming a serious nuisance, and representa- tions were continually being made to the Council by householders from Deganwy-street and Clifton- road agaist it. The police were trying to do what they could, but the nuisance still prevailed. Inspector Griffiths said Mr Wood was obstructing the parade every night. Mr Chamberlain said the Council had the power to call on the police to remove him. Inspector Griffith said that was not "0. Mr Chamberlain then concurred saying it was the Council's part to take action. The organ- grinders were then released.

RHUDDLAN. I FIUE.— OU Saturday evening last, just prior to the return of the Rhuddlan Fire Brigade from Rhyl, where they had taken a prominent part in Lifeboat Saturday Demonstration, an alarm of fire was given by the ringing of the bell, which caused a large number of the inhabitants to turn out. As soon as the alarm was given Mr T Ellis, High St., proceeded at once in the direction of Rhyl, where be met the Fire Brigade returning, and instead of coming to Rhuddlan they directed their way to Ddwylig Isaf, occupied by Mr Llewelyn Lloyd,and found a large haystack ablaze. They proceeded to work at once, and after remaining there until o a. m. on Sunday, succeeded in gaining a mastery over the fire and prevented it spreading to othei stacks, but not before a valuable haystack was destroyed. The Brigade was under the command of Capt. Conwy Bell, assisted by Lieut. Harris and Second Lieut. Oldfield. THE DAT SCItOOLS.-These re-open after the holidays, on Monday next September 2nd, when Mr W E Morris, the newly appointed schoolmas- ter, will commence his duties.—During the four years Mr Morris was headmaster of Llanor school, Carnarvonshire, he was most successful and great- ly endeared himselt to the children and parents and the parishioners generally.-On his departure be was presented by them with a handsomely designed 18 Carat Gold English Lever Watch." Mr Morris has excellent credentials, and there is every prospect of his doing well in his new sphere of labour.

At present there are numerous families staying here and since the building of several new houses the accommodation is greater and more satisfactory. Every effort is being made by the townspeople to give them a hearty welcome and to minister to their comforts.
