EMPIRE-GROWN COTTON. y————
EMPIRE-GROWN COTTON. y ———— h mooting of the-Council-of the British Cotton wowing Association was "held on Tuesday after- noon in Manchester. The financial statement discussed, and much dissatisfaction was ^pressed at the poor response to the appeal for additional funds. The Manchester Committee "ere organising a systematical canvass, and the jQatter was also under the consideration of the federation of Master Cotton Spinners, the North B.nd North-Bast Lancashire Cotton Spinners Manufacturers' Association, and the various !f~°UT organisations. The Chairman reported 'hat the West Indies crop is doing remarkably *^11. and the cotton now coming forward is ail Can k0 <^es^Te< ^r- Stansfield referred to phe recent visit of Mr. Mollison, Inspector- eral of Agriculture for India, and Mr. Hold- Brnee3, of the India Office, and expressed the grftt pleasure which the India Committee had being able to report that the Government of India was taking a very active interest in this Question, and that everything would now be one to improve both the quality and the quan- ity of cotton in India. The prospects were very Crapper, chairman of the East Africa mrnittee, gave details of the work which is j^1T18 on, and reported that over 20,000 fierce of p d w«Te under cotton cultivation in British uentral Africa, and that the prospects were Exceedingly good. The Chairman impressed 0p<m -.the meeting the necessity of increased tunds being quickly obtained. It -would be a freat reflection on Lancashire if the amount Inquired was not forthcoming. It was a matter pi which everybody connected with the cotton *fade was interested, and all ought to bear their 'hare of the burden.
NONCONFORMIST PREACHER'S MOTOR-CAR.
NONCONFORMIST PREACHER'S MOTOR- CAR. Mr. Perks, M.P., speaking at a Baptist bazaar it Louth, on Tuesday, made some sarcastic obser- vations about the poverty-stricken condition of th Bishop of London, aa revealed by recent Correspondence, and added that he did not think that any of the clergy of the Free Churches were subject to these serious temptations, though he jM. believe that one celebrated Nonconformist tnvine in London went to a church on a motor- car which cost him upwards of a thousand Suineas.
MARRIED BY A LADY,
MARRIED BY A LADY, The first instance on record, in the North at 'east, of a marriage ceremony being performed by a lay-woman occurred at Blackburn on Tues- day. Mrs. Lewis, a well-known temperance advocate, and sister of Mr. J. Lewis, the football referee, was attending the wedding at Park-rd. Congregational Church of two young folk con- oected with her temperance mission hall, when the latter expressed a wish that a lady could tearry them. Upon this the pastor (the Rev. Joseph Dugdale) invited Mrs. Lewis to tie the nuptial knot, which she did with dignity and despatch, the pastor assisting in the ceremony,
CRIPPLED COLLIER'S WINDFALL.
CRIPPLED COLLIER'S WINDFALL. A crippled collier named David Jones, who fives at Penyrheol, South Wales, has proved his ilaim to a sum of several thousand pounds, the rightful owner of which has-been loug sought for by a firm of Cardiff solicitors. Nearly half a cen- tury ago Thomas Ebenezer Jones left Mertliyr to try his fortune in America. Finally, in New south Wales he prospered and amassed a small fortune, which on his death he left to his brothers. The means of identification were very meagre, however, the only clues being that i lie family were distinguished from other Joneses by being known as the Ebenezer Joneses, in.(i 1 hat the father of the testator was killed in a colliery explosion in 1862. It was found that David was the only survivor, the other brothers having met with violent deaths—one by drowning and the Dther in a colliery explosion.
TRAMWAY DEVELOPMENTS.
TRAMWAY DEVELOPMENTS. PARCELS DELIVERY AND MOTOR 'BUSES. For parcel carrying and delivery, the Man- chester Corporation Tramways Department, on Tuesday, adopted a scale of charges. There will be an inner area of delivery, including the whole of the city, the borough of Salford, and the town- ship of Stretford as far as Warwick-rd.; and an outer area comprising the system of the depart- ment outside those boundaries. Within the inner ".A,ea the chargee for carriage and delivery of parcels will be Parcels up to 141 b»., 2d.; up to 281b6., 3d.; up to 561bs., 4d.; up to 112Ibs., 6d. In the wider districts indicated the prices to be paid will be:—Up to 141bs., 3d.; up to 281bs., 4d.; up to 561bs. 6d.; up to 11211x3., 8d. It was also decided by the Committee that an experiment shall be tried with a couple of petrol motor omnibuses with the abject of substituting mechanical for horse hwulage on some of the few suburban routes where horsed omnibuses now ply for traffic. Further development in a similar direction was resolved upon by the Com- mittee deciding to purchase tw.o small motor cars for the use of officers of the department, for whom at present four one-horse vehicles are maintained. The employment of motor cars for the use of officials has been a feature in the Corporation Electricity Department for some years past.
A SOLDIER'S PRIVILEGE.
A SOLDIER'S PRIVILEGE. FREEDOM FROM ARREST FOR DEBT. A curious sequel to a breach of promise suit has been heard in the Wandsworth County Court when a warrant was sought for the arrest of Richard W. Taylor, a bandsman in the Grena- dier Guards. He had been ordered to pay Miss Edith Julia Owen, the daughter of a Battersea grocer, JB25 damages and £ 93 odd costs in respect to an action for breach of promise of marriage. A fortnight ago his Honour committed the de- fendant for 21 days in default of his paying JB5 a month, and the young lady now applied for a warrant of arrest for the non-payment of the first instalment. I am satisfied that I have no power," said Judge Russell. "The other day I happened to be playing golf with a major, and I said, 'What about a bandsman in the army?' He said, He is liable to be called upon for active service, and to fight if necessary.' That makes him a soldier at once." "I don't know who your major was," observed counsel. "It is a monstrous thing that this guardsman, who talked so bravely and gained the affections of this girl, should creep out under the skirts of his commanding officer." You need not talk that sort of stuff," said the judge. It is rather absurd that a soldier should be protected in this way; but the Act of Parliament says that the amount must be JS30 over and above all the costs of the suit."
THE BURDEN OF ARMAMENTS.
THE BURDEN OF ARMAMENTS. COBDEN CLUB'S PLEA FOR ECONOMY. A volume entitled The Burden of Arma- ments: A Plea for Retrenchment," by the Cob- den Club has been published by h. Fisher Unwin. It has been prepared by the Committee of the Cobden Club, including Mr. Shaw-Lefevre as chairman,Lord Welby, Sir Alger- non West, Sir Spencer Walpole, and other ex- perts, and consists of a critical review of British expenditure on armaments—first in the period covered by Cobden's famous pamphlet, Thev Three Panics," next in the period of economy and remission of taxation from 1863 to 1884, and fin- ally in the last twenty years of ever-increasing outlay. The possibility of reducing this expen- diture is discussed, especially in view of the settlement of our disputes with France, the col- lapse of the Russian Navy in the Far East, and the new Admiralty scheme for the concentration end reduction of the fleet. The conclusion arrived at is that an effort should be made to return to the standard thought sufficient immediately be- fore the South African war. The remission of taxes on articles of consumption, commencing forty years ago, was followed by the improved condition of the labouring classes, increased con- sumption, increased savings, and the reduction of pauperism and ei-iyre. The increased taxes commencing ten years ago lowered the condition of the labouring classes, reduced consumption and the deposits in savings banks, increased pauperism, vagrancy, and offences against pro- perty. The power, if necessity should occur, to raise eight hundred to one thousand millions is a far greater source of strength than the per- manent addition of twenty millions in time of peace to the annual charge of armaments. Every- thing points to the expediency and necessity of returning to the forgotten paths of economy.

Re Election of a Second Guardian…
Re Election of a Second Guardian at Prestatyn. Dear Mr Editor,—May I through the columns of your paper be allowed to address a few remarks on the subjeot of the forthcoming election of a second Guardian of the Poor" for the Parish or District of Prestatyn. At the request of eeveral ratepayers representing vaiious shades of religious and political opinions, I have been asked to aonsent to allow myself to be nominated as a candidate for the seat. After due consideration I have consented to nomination for the following reasons 1. Hitherto Prestatyn has only had the right of electing one Guardian it has just recently obtained the additional privilege of electing a Second Guardian. And it is to select this second Guardian that the present election is to be held. 2. One Guardian is now in office and is both a Nonconformist and a Liberal, so that this section of the community is always being well and ade- quately represented. 3. There is also another section of the com- munity-by no means a small one-which aa yet has had no direct representation on the Board of Guardians, viz, those who are not Nonconformists and those who belong to a different political party. 4. It has occurred to me that eince neither of these sections can claim an exclusive monopoly of regard for the interests of the poor, it would tquitably meet the claims of justice, reason and fairplay if this second seat were, in a friendly way, conceded to the side which is at present without direct representation. It was with the object of making this amicable arrangement possible that I consented to nomina- tion. Since there are to be two Guardians in the future to represent Prestatyn, I fail to see why such a friendly understanding as this could not always be possible, and thus avoid the turmoil and expense of an election. Moreover, at the present juncture, with so much spiritual work going on dail y in our midst in connection with the Revival, which, happily, is making its influence wonderfully felt in the parish, it is much to be desired that nothing should be allowed to intervene which would in any way tend to lessen its divine :influence. I am afraid that a contest of this nature would, to say the least, prove moet distracting. It behoves us all, there- fore, to think twice before we discuss the responsi- bility of such a course. Of course, I am fully aware that the more ardent' spirits on both sides will not hesitate to provoke a contest, and refuse to listen to any plea for con- ciliation, or a friendly arrangement but I am inclined to think that the larger section of the peo- ple—the more moderate, the more reasonable ones —will see in this much to commen d it, and my appeal is more especially to them. Failing an arrangement on these lines, I reserve to myself the right of acting as I think bast under the exceptional circumstances. Thanking you for your kind indulgence.—Believe me, yours faith- fully, OWEN J. DAVIES. The Vicarage, Prestatyn, Feb. 9th, 1905. P,S.-It has been hinted to me by friends of the opposite party that a layman would be more acceptable to the public than a cleric. If that is so, and supposing the principle for which I con- tend acceptable, I would gladly retire at the earliest possible opportunity in favour of a layman of.similar views, in short at any time which may bejjmutually agreed upon. Unfortunately owing to the short notice given for nomination it is impossible to give effect to this suggestion now. 913

LIOOC YRAR --CTe wore fiff cases or drunkenness in the district under the jurisdiction of the Brentford Brewster Sessions as compared with 425 in 1900. Mr. Montagu Sharpe, the chairman of the Sessions, stated that the increase was due to strangers who were brought down by the electric tramcarg for a day in the country and got drunk. "What does 'P. G.' stand for?" asked Mr. Justice Lawrence at the Anglesey Assizes, referring to Llanfair P.G. It is the shortened name for a village, replied Mr. J. Bryn Roberts, M.P., who wisely ignored a request that he should give the full name. The furl name of the village is Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll- andysiliogogogoch. The annual dinner of the "Lancastrians in London" has teen fixed to take place at the Hotel Cecil on March 3rd, when the Earl of Lathom, president in succession to Lord Stanley, will occupy the chair. An "At Home" of the Association is to be held on February 7th at the Freemasons Hall, under the presidency of Mr. T. V. Bowater, C.C. Mrs. Thomson, wife of the Commodore, Capt. Thomson, of the City of Dublin Mail Steamers, was on Monday morning discovered dead, shot through the temple, in the coal-house at her residence in Gorse-avenue, a suburb of Holyhead. Deceased had a revolver in ono hand a cartridge in the other, and is supposed to have committed suicide. At the Old Bailey, on Monday, Patrick Fitz- gerald (43), carpenter, was sentenced to five years' penal servitude for breaking into a flat in Sloane Square and with violently assaulting a constable. It was stated that prisoner had been convicted for offences committed at Bristol, Taunton, Wells and other parts of the country, and that he had been continuously in and out of gaol for 32 years. The Court of Appeal, on Monday, reversed a decision of the Divisional Court in an appeal from the County Court Judge of Rochester, in which the Divisional Court held that the Countv Court had jurisdiction to grant injunctions in actions brought for the infringement of trade marks. The decision will have a far-reaching effect, as it will shut out a very large number of cases from the jurisdiction of county courts. James Peters was, at St. Helens, ordered to pay £ 7 and costs for selling pirated music and 23:1 copies were ordered to be destroyed. Mr. H. W. Badger, parish clerk, of Marlow, has just completed 50 years' service, and has only had one Sunday for a holiday. He has been under six vicars and no fewer than 57 curates. The clerkship had been in the family since the year 1789. Birmingham Anti-Ciorset League now has 53 members. The funeral of Catherine, Countess of Stam- ford and Warrington, took place at Enville (Staffordshire) on Friday, whence the body was conveyed by special train from Leicester. Sir Thomas Wright, executor, and others concerned with the deceased's Leicester estate accompanied the remains to Enville.
