Teiml- em fod y ffordd yn rhy bell i'r plant Ileiaf gerdd- ed. Y mae yn y lie tua chant o dai anedd, a'r rhai hyny agos oil yn Uawn, a theimlem felly fod digon o blant bychain yma i gael ysgol fechan ar eu cyfer. Gwnaeth Mr J. E.

Derbyniwyd yr ad- rwldiad gan y bwrdd yn ffafriol, a gwnaed cais am dir, ond buwyd yn aflwyddianus i gael y man a ddymunid. Drwg genym fodd bynag fod ych- ydig bersonau o Bontygwaith wedi deisebu y bwrdd ddwywaith yn erbyn i ni gael yr hyn sydd iawn a theg.

Edinburgh Man's Adventure in cpl- Venezuela. She following is an extract from a letter to a member of the Edinburgh Constabulary, from a friend in the police force of British Guiana: — "We were out two weeks ago. The Venezu- elan fled on our approach like a drove of sheep. We found their camp deserted, except for one wounded officer. For several nights in succession we had been annoyed by them. "The half-dead man found in their camp was truly a pitiful object. Accidentally wounded by a companion's gun some days previous, he had lost an enormous quantity of blood, and when we arrived he was in an extraordinary weak condition; the marvel was that he had lived so long. He received no medical attendance from his countrymen, and on learning of our ap- proach, they fled and left him. We were anxious to do what we could for the poor fellow, but our medical knowledge was as limited as our supply of medicines. When at our wits' end, I recollec- ted that before leaving Georgetown, Polly in- sisted upon my taking with me a box of Dr Wil- liams' Pink Pills. As you will remember, before you left the Colony, Polly was brought into a preca.rious state of health through these colonial fevers. The doctors had prescribed time after time with no effect, and at laat (I think to hide their failure) they ordered her heme by the last mail. It was then that some persons recom- mended her to try Dr Williams' Pink Pills. "I was always, as you know, a most deter- mined opponent of advertised medicines, and although Polly was in a month transformed by their use from a delicate, pale-faced looking ghost, to as rosy-cheeked and buxom a woman as you would find in the Colony, I was still re- luctant to attribute the pleasing change to the real cause. It was, therefore, with some mis- givings, and because we had no other remedy, that I began to treat our weak and bloodless Venezuelan with Dr Williams' Pink Pills. 1 must, however, honestly admit that my unbe- lief in the efficacy of this wonderful medicine received a severe shock. Within one week our patient was a new man, and I can say without exaggeration, that you could almost see an im- provement after each dose of Pills. So marvel- lous indeed was the cure, that everyone in camp now firmly believes in Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and from my own knowledge I can safely say that in the ease of persons weakened and reduced by colonial fevers, loss of blood, and general weakness, there is nothing to equal them. You will, no doubt, admit, that when I, who was such a bitter opponent of patent medicines in J general, say this, there most be good rronnd for it-.—Y9*r« very ^rulj^ Jamgs 6h$we," Itfiose Uoodle&s, alt&ialc peepte llave Wea made strong, hungry, energetic, Qhcerful men and women bv Dr Williams' Pink Pills for PaJe People than by any other means.

A Brutal Son. THREATENS TO KILL HIS MOTHER. Before Mr E. Edwards and other magistrates at the Caerphilly police-court on Tuesday, Thomas Thomas, farmer,-Nelson, son of the late Mr Edward Thomas, J.P., Nelson, appeared to answer a charge of using threats towards his mother, Mrs Margaret Thomas. Mrs Margaret Thomas gave evidence that on Monday night last defendant came to her house in a drunken condition and was very abusive towards her. He threatened to "knock her b- head off," and she was compelled to obtain the assistance of the police to remove him. Defendant came there often, and was always abusive to her, he having on one oc- casion threatened to shoot her. Police-Sergeant Williams gave evidence of having been called to the house, where he saw the defendant in a drunken condition behaving very riotously. The Bench bound defendant in the sum of £ 10 to keep the peace for six months, and he was also ordered to pay the costs, amounting to 6s. Another charge was heard against the same defendant—one of being drunk and creating a. disturbance on the highway at Nelson on Monday night. Defendant appeared under arrest. P.S. Williams gave evidence, that having ejected defendant from his mother's house at her request he became very abusive towards him, and used filthy language. Fined 5s.

CAERPHILLY DISTRICT COUNCIL. SANITATION AT TAFF'S WELL. The ordinary meeting of the above Council was held at the temporary offices, St. Cenydd road, Caerphilly, on Tuesday, under the presi- dency of Ald. H. Anthony, J.P. There were also present Councillors D. E. Jones, Captain Lindsay, J.P., E. W. M. Corbet, J.P., W. Thomas, Lewis Williams, and Eli Jenkins; to- gether with the newly-appointed clerk (Mr W. Spickett, Pontypridd), the surveyor (Mr A. O. Harpur), and the sanitary inspector 'Mr E. J. Morgan). Mr A. O. Harpur, surveyor, reported:—The Taft's Well sewerage contract is being pro- ceeded with satisfactorily. The work of laying A WATER SUPPLY from the Council's water main to the Rose and Castle Inn, Caerphilly (in substitution of water the tenant derived from a well on the premises, which was found to be polluted, and ordered to be closed by the Court) has been carried out.- It was decided that the cost of the work be char ed to the consumers. A tender had been submitted by Messrs Powell and Powell, Caerphilly for work to be done in conneotion with widening and metalling Mabon road, Nelson, in order to secure the full contri- bution towards its maintenance from the County Council, the tender was accepted. The surveyor further reported that the. para- pet wall on the north side of the Panteg Bridge, Aber, was in a very dilapidated condition. In its present state, it was SOMEWHAT DANGEROUS to vehioles and pedestrians. He recommended that the wall be repaired. It was decided that the wall be repaired at once. Complaints weoe being continually received from the inliabitants re numbering of houses at Caerphilly. Councillor Thomas proposed and Councillor Williams seconded that the surveyor attend to the matter at once. A letter was read from Mr T. E. Davies, Cwm, Caerphilly, informing the Council that the Ty- melyn Brick Works, Caerphilly, were about to be sold, and that as the rail-road from the works crossed the road, and was a SOURCE OF DANGER to the public at large he recommended that the Council give notice to the owner, requester him to take the rails up, as the road was very narrow ia this part. Mr E. W. M. Corbett proposed,and Mr Thomas seconded, that notice be given to Mr Rees, the owner, requesting him to remove the rail-road. Mu G. A. Evans, secretary to the Senghenyda Building Club, wrote requesting the Council to fi* street lamps on the road upon which they were building 80 houses. He pointed out that the Council already ha<f fixed lamps up to very near the spot where they were building. Mr E. W. M. Corbett proposed, and Councillor Thomas seconded, and it was unanimously agreed, that lamps be fixed on that road. Ald. W. H. Morgan, clerk to the Pontypridd and Rhondda Main Sewerage Board, wrote that in reference to the complaints as to manhole efPuvia, tlia matter had been discussed, and arrangements had been made that the County Medical Officer, together with the medical officers 04 Jiealth of the Caerphilly, Rhondda, and Pontypridd Councils, should pay a visit to Taff's Well and other places to investigate and to report thereon. Dr Williams, the medical officer of the County, wrote asking the Council if they were satisfied that there was a sufficient and efficient supply of water to supply the proposed ISOLATION HOSPITAL, The Chairman: We have only to sink a well. Mr Corbett: When we -et our district sup- plied with water, as is proposed to be done, in our new arrangements, we will have sufficient to supply the isloation hospital. Inasmuch as the arrangements concerning the site have not been completed, I move that the matter be de- ferred for the present, and that another letter be written to Mr Goodrich, requesting a lease for 99 years instead of 60 years, as proposed by that irentleman. This was adopted. Mr Ellis Lewis, Pencapel Farm, wrote request- ing payment of £ 2 for damage done to his pro- perty by the opening of a trench there some time ago. It was decided to offer him El 5s, in full payment of the charge. Mr Henry Williams, builder, Senghenydd, for warded a list (as promised D, him at the last meeting) of persons who had tenanted their houses without the dwellings being properly certified bv the surveyor. The list included the names of Mr J. P. Williams, Mr Josiah Morgan, and the Senghenydd Builam" Club. But on in- quir it was found that the charges made by Mr Williams WERE UNFOUNDED, as the houses mentioned by him had been certi- fied by the surveyor, copies of the certificates being produced at the meeting. APPOINTMENT OF DRAUGHTSMAN. The committee appointed to select a draughts- man from the three applicants who attended before them now reported that they had ap- pointed Mr D. H. Edwards, Neath. The Council confirmed the appointment. The furnishing of the new offices was next considered, when a committee consisting of the chairman, Mr Corbett, and the surveyor, was appointed to obtain the necessary articles.

Pegles, Bridge Honse, Upper Beat, on the let iost. The prosecutrix said that on the afternoon of the day in qaeation she was at Upper Boat, and whea between the house of a Mrs Payne and like shop of Mrs Watkins she lost the purse and lis contents. She had the purse in her pocket at the house of Mrs Payne, but when she ar. rived at Mrs Watkins' anop she had lost it. She immediately returned over the same road, but failed to find it. She made inquiries and found that the only person who had passed at the time was the defendant, who had made his way back to Pontypridd. The purse produced in court she identified as her property. P.C. Ham deposed that from information received he arrested defendant at his residence in the even- ing, and told him he was suspected of having stolen a purse and 9s lid by finding it. Defen- dant replied, "Yes, I found a purse to-day at Upper Boat, and here it is, the same as I found it." Defendant then handed him the purse, which now contained two papers but no money. On charging him he replied, I found the purse as it is now, with two papers in it." The con- stable searched defendant, and in his pocket was f I 6s lOd in silver and copper. Defendant now pleaded guilty, and was discharged with a caution.

Book for Ladies The information contained in this book ought to be known by every married woman, and it will not harm the unmarried to read. The book is conveniently divided into twelve chapters The first chapter treats of womanhood. The second chapter treats of marriage from a doc- tor's standpoint; points out the best age for marriage and furtushes useful information that one can ordinarily get only from an intelligent doctor. The third chapter treats of the marri- age of blood relations; and condemns such mar- riages as a. rule. Certain people believe that women should bring forth in pain and trouble, but the hygienic physician says that confinements can be made comparatively easy if certain rules are obeyed: these rules are given. The tenth chapter tells how to treat the mother till she is up and about again. The book is full of useful information, and no book is written which goes so thoroughly into such mat- ters. Some may think too much is told; such can scarcely be the case, for knowledge is power and the means of attaining happiness. The book can be had in envelope from Dr T. R.

Grand Concert at Cilfyqydd. On Monday evening a grand concert was held at the Workmen's Hall, Cilfynydd, for the bene- fit of the Rev Stephen Lewis, who has for many years been unable to follow his ministerial duties owing to ftl health. For some Jea.rs Mr Lewis was pastor at the Methodist Chapel at Maehen, and afterwards at Earlsweod. He subsequently kept a private school at Cardiff. Mr Lewis cotiv nieneed his career with every promise of a bril- liant future, and undoubtedly these promises would have been fulfilled had it not been for the unfortunate break down in his health. For the past few years Mr Lewis has kept a book- seller's shop at Cilfynydd, and has striven .hard as far as his health would allow to make the business prosper. It sh..nld be stated that Mr Lewis, prior to his entering the ministry, held a very lucrative post as Inspector at some large iionworks. The chief promoter of the concert was Mr rhillip Jones, Aibion Colliery, and when he undertakes to do a thing it invariably proves a success. Such proved ths case with this enter- prise. The services of the four following talented artistes were secured: f-oprano, Miss L. Teify Davies, (medalist), It.A.H., and Miss Lizzie Austin, C.R.A.M.; tenor. Mr W. R. Maxwell, R.A.M. (Parepa Rosa G c!d Medalist); baritone, Mr David Jonea, C.R.A.M. (medalist). The hall was literally paocked-c-v, i-y available seat was occupied, aJl standing roc ic., was taken, and every window had its full complement of eager listen- ers. The manner in whYh the concert was pat- ronised speaks highly of the musical tastes of the 1 people of Cilfynydd, an i proves their readiness to sympathise with a descrjy'ng cause. The chair was occupied by Mr Henry Lewis, Ty Nant; managing director of the Albion Colliery, who- opened the proceedings cf the evening with a very suitable speech. Lè first item on the pro- gramme was a piiiioft)ri ejection by Professor Mills, Pontypridd, who /Jc.qtùLtt."tl himself in h.s usual brilliant gtyle.Mr M xwen followed,and gave an excellent rendering cf "Come to me." Miss Lizzie Teify Davies, wh'I;e reputation had evi- dently preceded her, rcepived quite an ovation on her appearance, and Lor highly artistic rendi- tioa of "The Enchantress" quite delighted the large and appreciative audience. This was fol- lowed by "The Swallows/' which was excellently sung by Miss Lizzie Austin. The cheers whicn "feetod Mr David Jones cn his appearanoe prove bow greatly he is e^eemc 1 awonfj &is own people. He gave a excellent interpretation of Pinsuti's "Queen of the Earth," vliich elicited an encore, to which Mr Jones responded with tlia side- splitting soniz entitled, "A jolly good hearty laugh," which fairly brought down the house. The duet "Excelsior" was splendidly rendered Messrs Jones and Maxwell, and this was followed by the familiar "Old King Cole," sung, by the four artistes. Professor Mills admirably intro- duced the second part of the programme with a pianoforte eolo. Miss L. Tcifi Davies feUowed, a.nd eclipsed her first exee'denit perfoTHwmoe with "The promise of life." The anoeamin,- demands of the audience for an encore elicited from Miss Davies the beautiful old Weh-h song, "Mvfi sy'n mairu'r baban," which in turn received even great- er applause than her previous effort. The splen- did rendition of "Angels Guard Thee !>'• Mr Maxwell demanded another encore to which he ably recTxjnded with "Tin Sailor's Grave." Mr David Jones next appeared, ani gave his audience such a musical treat as they will not forget for some time. His selection was "Revenge, Timo- theus cries," and his reniering cf this most diffi- cult piece was magnificent. At the conclusion of the song he was vociferously cheered, and he gave as an encore song Tafonwy Mills' beautiful song, "Y Teithiwr a'i Gi." Miss Austin next delighted her audience with "The Holy City," which was not allowed to pass without an en- core. The duet, "Tell me, gentle stranger," was exceedingly well rendered by Mr Dari l Jones and Miss Teify Davies. The "Rustic Coquette" was next riven by the four artistes, and tl-rs brou^it to an end a most delightful cc-i^irt and one which will remain long in the memory of all present. The popular songs cf thn evening un- doubtedly were Mr David Jones' "A iolly srood hearty laugh," and Miss Teify Davios" "Myfi sy'n magu'r baban." Great 1-tra.;Fr is due to the gentlemen who so readily assisted Mr Phillip Jones in acting the Gcod Samaritan. Among these may be mentioned tlip two energetic sec- retaries, Mr E. R. Edwards. Cardigan Home, and Mr B. Rosser, butcher; also Mr John Phil- hps, who acted in the capacity cf t i-castirer, and the many Gentlemen who gave such pubf«antial assistance in the disposing of tickets.

Unjust Scales and Weights at Tylorstown. At the Caerphilly Petty Sessions on Tuesday, —before Mr E. Edwards (in the chair), Dr. M. G. Evans, and Mr Evan Owen,—Albert Lake, a Mert'hvr greengrocer, appeared to miswer a charge of using unjust scales for s>)!ing fish. The evidence of P.S. Williams was to the effect that on the 20th of last month. he saw the defendant in Nelson, with a cart from which e was selling fish and fruit. In passing the carr, he noticed a piece of lead undt r the cllh He went on some distance and saw thedf fendaiit weighing fruit and fish with tlfse scales.
