Mountain Ash District j Council. TUESDAY.—Capt. F. N, Gray, J.P., in the chair. The other members present were: Messrs. D. Rogers. G. H. Hall, Silas Williams, E. Morris, 7\Vm. Evans, Griffith Evans, D. Rogers, Bruce Jones, Capt. G. A. Evans, Thos. Jones, Wm. Lamburn. with Mr H. P. Linton (clerk), Mr F. Stock (assistant clerk), Mr W. G. Thomas (surveyor), and Mr. H. T. Jones (sanitary inspector), CEMETERY CHAPEL ONCE MORE. LADY ABEPDARES APPLICATION. Capt. Evans moved "That the resolu- tion passed by the Council refusing to ap- prove of the frazzi style of building for proposed Cemetery Chapel at Maesyrar- ian, be rescinded, and that Lady Aber- dare be granted sanction, as desired, to erect the frazzi building in accordanee with plan and specification submitted by the Vicar and Churchwardens." Mr. Griffith Evans seconded. Mr. W. Davies moved an amendmnet— that the previous resolution stand. The Council should not give permission to build anything there which was not of a permanent character. If Lady Aberdare had such regard for the people she might as well raise a stone building. Mr. Linton then read Lady Aberdare's letter. She considered that a chapel was most urgently needed, so that due rever- ence might be observed and so that the clergy and mourners might be protected from the weather. She had witnessed from her house several funerals at Maes- yrarian, and she could not help think- ing that the people's lives were in danger by being exposed to the weather. If the Council was opposed to her proposal she suggested that the Council themselves should erect a stone building. Mr. S. Williams seconded Mr. Davies' amendment. He saw no reason why the Council should change their opinion. If they granted Lady Aberdare's application, the Cemetery would be in appearance something like a ram-shackle golf course. There ought to be something more sub- stantial than a golf house or cricket pavilion. Lord Aberdare, when he sold the ground, which cost the Council prac- tically Xl,000 an acre, laid it down that nothing should be erected which would prove an eyesore. Now the church- wardens and this woman were asking for that very privilege, simply because she had been spending a lot of time watch- ing funerals from her window. What about the hundreds of women who at- tended funerals P They had not made any complaint whatever. Until he was convinced that the majority of the people of Mountain Ash were anxious for such a building, he would oppose the motion. If a building was to be erected at all it ought not to be connned to the Church of England, but should be for the use of chapel-goers and persons who did not go to any place of worship. Mr. Rogers, supporting the amendment, said he had no disrespect for Lady Aber- dare's offer, but he understood that it was a settled policy not to put up any building in their cemeteries. He con- sidered them unnecessary. When a ser- vice was held in a chapel there was al- ways another service at the grave, Mr. T. Jones said he had opposed the proposal of Lady Aberdare on a previous occasion because he considered the build- ing not sufficiently substantial. He felt there was need for some shelter. If Lady Aberdare could not see her way clear to erect a stone building, perhaps it would be well to take a ballot of the district as to whether the people were in favour of such a building as was proposed. The Clerk said that a ballot was im- possible. Mr. S. Williams observed that Lady Aberdare would want a piece of land for that building. The Council had paid J:800 an aero for every hit of land in the Cemetery. I The Council then divided as follows: — In favour of Lady Aberdare's proposal- Messrs. W. Evans, Griffith Evans, Bruce Jones, G. A. Evans, and F. N. Gray—5. Against- Messrs., W. Davies, G. II. Hall, S. Williams, E. Morris, and D. Rogers—5. Mr. T. Jones -remained neutral. Capt. Gray refused to give his casting vote, and the matter will come up again next meeting. ¡ STREET NOISES, The Clerk having been directed to re- port on the question of street noises, now reported that the County Council had a bye-law prohibiting the blowing of instru- ments in the streets and shouting the names of articles for sale. The maxi- mum penalty was .£5, Mr. Linton added that he had had a letter from the Chief Constable, stating that he had given in- structions to the Mountain Ash police to enforce this bye-law. Mr. Hall said that the nuisance was still being continued. He had heard a bugle that very morning. Capt. Gray: I heard a bugle, but only just one note. I took no notice of it. Mr. S. Williams I suppose you thought it was a Territorial bugle, (Laughter.) Capt. Gray: Or a member of the Feder- ation blowing his own horn. (Renewed laughter.) It was resolved to write again to the Chief Constable. SLAUGHTER-HOUSES. The Clerk also reported upon the bear- ing of the Mountain Ash Act, 1909, on I slaughter-houses. Mr. S. Williams moved that a com- mittee meet to consider the question of erecting a public abattoir. Mr. W. Davies seconded, and the I motion was agreed to. TOWN PLANNING. I Re the forthcoming Town Planning I Conference in London, the Clerk had asked the L.G.B. whether the Council could send three delegates thereto. The L.G.B. now replied authorising the attendance of only one delegate. 1 Mr. Rogers moved that the chairman, Mr. J. Charles, attend. This was seconded. Mr. B. Jones moved that they do not send anyone, He proposed this amend- ment as a protest against the ruling of the L.G.B. Mr. Bogers remarked that Mr. John Burns had passed the Town Planning Act, and now he was opposing local authorities being adequately represented at the annual conference. On the motion being put to the meet- ing, it was resolved by a good majority that Mr. Charles be asked to attend. THE LAND VALUE DUTY. The architect's report, which stated that it was impracticable to build another storey on I.'De of the existing schools at Penrhiwceiber, was again read. The suggestion to build another story was made to avoid the payment of the increment duty to the landowner, Col. Vaughan Lee. Mr. Hall remarked that there was no alternative course. They were bound to accede to the landowner's terms. He did not believe in crowding the children in vestries. The committee were already paying X70 per annum for the loan of vestries. He moved that they pay the landowner. In reply to the Chairman, the Clerk said that the increment duty amounted to £14 lis. 5d. Mr. T. Jones seconded Mr. Hall. He agreed that the landowner's terms were unreasonable, but the children should not suffer. Mr. Rogers moved the previous ques- tion. He was not prepared to violate a principle so important as this one. The Council did not receive the increment at all. The man who received the incre- ment should pay the duty. Mr. S. Williams seconded. Mr. W. Davies, Capt. Evans, and Mr. Lamburn spoke further. Mr. Morris remarked that it was im- possible to get better terms. The Council divided, when 7 voted foi Mr. Hall's motion and 5 against. The names are: For the motion—Messrs Hall, Morris, W. Evans, B. Jones, G. A. Evans, T. Jones, and F. N. Gray. Against- Messrs. W. Davies, W. Lamburn, S. Wil- liams, Griffith Evans, and D. Rogers. Mr. Rogers gave notice to rescind the resolution at the next meeting. POSTAL MATTERS. The Postmaster of Pontypridd sought the Council's opinion upon the proposal to close the Penrhiwceiber Post Office at 7.30 on week days. The Council opposed the proposal. He further asked the Council whether they would be in favour of lessening the hours at Glancynon and Carnetown sub- offices, Abercynon. The proposed hours were 9 to 7 instead of 8 to 8. Mr. Morris: They want an Eight Hours Act. The Council divided, and the majority were against any alteration. 150 PER CENT. INCREASE. Dr. Ben Phillips Jones, medical super- intendent of the Isolation Hospital, ap- plied for an increase of salary, which for the last 14 years had been .£20. Capt. Evans remarked that R20 looked more like an honorarium. He moved that it be increased to .£50, Mr. Hall seconded, Mr. B. Jones moved, and Capt. Gray seconded, that the amount be JB40. The voting was as follows:-For £ 50: Messrs. Hall, Williams, Morris, W. Evans, Griffith Evans, D. Rogers, Capt. Evans, and T. Jones—8. For « £ 40: Messrs W. Davies, W. Lamburn, B. Jones, and Capt. Gray—4. MEDICAL OFFICER'S REPORT. Scarlet fever, 32 cases; diphtheria, 4; enteric, 3, erysipelas, 1.

Carroll gave a splendid violin solo, entitled, Serenade." The chief place in the programme for the week is taken by The Lizzette Troupe of Lady Acrobats and Tumblers." They are very clever, graceful, and strong. They richly deserve the ap- plause which they nightly receive. The Three Langfords, including Billy, the greatest Wing Dancer of America, make up a fine turn in dancing. They are really very smart. Tom Franks is an excellent ventriloquist, and is assisted by his almost human automaton, Lanca- shire Billy." The jokes are all fresh. His ventriloquism, supplemented with the wrestling and boxing act between himself and Billy, make up a very clever I tarn. Molly Augarde is a splendid singer. Her songs are very pleasing. Splendid I pictures, illustrative of pathos and humo-Lir, are shown upon the empirescope. — ————————————————————————— <

Alfred James Rees (12), living in Aberaman, summoned Fulgoni Liugi, an Italian, for assault. Mr W. Thomas prosecuted and Mr J. D. Thomas defended. The boy Rees said that defendant jumped out of his chip cart and beat him with a big whip. Witness did not annoy defendant at all, Mrs Hancock, 33 Regent street, testi. fied that she saw defendant brandishing a whip and then slashing at the lad. The boy did nothing to the defendant, E, J. Hunt, milk vendor, said that he saw defendant rushing at some small boys who were annoying him. Defend- ant collared the complainant, and a more brutal assault he never witnessed. Defendant made the boy, who was the first he captured "pay for the lot." Wit- ness felt like going for the defendant himself, but he restrained himself fear- ing that he would eventually get the worst end of the stick, Defendant was mad. He was foaming at the mouth and shouting I will kill the b Dr. Moffit said that he examined the lad. He found a scratch on the face and some red marks on the back and the shoulders. Defendant, who could speak but little English, said that on the day in ques- tion, complainant and other boys were tampering with a sack of potatoes in his cart. He ran after the lads, and when he caught complainant he did lash him on the face. The Stipendiary held that there was no defence.
