"I Did My Best." Mother's Struggle for Subsistence. Shocking Story of Father's Neglect. Tears at Ystrad Court. A pathetic recital or the tribulations of a mother and her two babes was given at Ton-Pentre Police Court on Monday, when William John Rowlands, collier. late of Treforest, was charged under Section 12 of the Children's Act with neg- lecting his two children in a manner likely to cause them unnecessary suffer- ing/ Mr. W. Spickett, Pontypridd, pro- secuted on behalf of the N.S.P.C.C. John Thomas, an inspector of the Society, isaid that he paid his first visit to defendant's house—13, Oxford Street, Treforest-ciii March 1st last, and -f.ound the two children in a very impoverished condition.. He again visited the house on 7th March. There was no food in the house, with the exception of a small quantity of condensed milk in a tin, pro- vided by defendant's fatlier-in-law. The wife and two children were poverty- stricken, and in a starving condition. The eldest child was 1 year and 4 months old, and the youngest 3 months, the latter being fed at the time with a liquid from Quaker Oats only. Witness pro- vided food for them there and then. With regard to clothing, the mother was prac- tically naked. Witness again called on the 10th, and found that the man had not been to work. On the table he found remnants of the food he had provided on his. previous visit. Witness requested defendant- to call at his office, and asked him why lie had not been working, his wife having told him (witness) that he had only worked nine turns during the year. Defendant replied that he had worked at the Albion Colliery, Cilfynydd, a year ago, and was going to start work again next. morning. Defendant did not seem to realise his responsibility, added witness, and he (witness) served him with a fqrm of caution. On the following day, witness again called at the house, and was met on the doorstep by defendant. When asked why he had not gone to work as he had promised. defendant became very abusive, and told witness that he had no business to speak to him so loudly, as it was a private matter. He left the house soon afterwards, and had not been seen since until he was arrested on Friday last. .1 The wire, Mary Jane itowiands, said she was married to 'defendant ;U years ago. They lived with her parents for the iirst. twelve months, during the first Portion of which he worked fairly regular. They next went to live in a neighbouring street, and afterwards moved to Ponty- Pridd, where they remained for eleven Months. Defendant was idle for the first three months. Their next move was to Treforest in October last, where her baby Was born on 16th December. Her hus- band worked only two spells of five and four days each this year, and she sub- sisted by selling her clothes, and pawn- ing her jewellery and other goods, whilst neighbours also assisted her. There ^as very little food in the house when last hapy was born, and a week later, ?he was 'reduced to such straits that she "ad to exchange dishes for food at a eghbouring shop. She knew she was doing wrong in giving her baby Quaker Oats water," but," she added, with tears streaming down her wan cheeks, "I did ftiv best to get food for my little ones." When her father paid her a visit, she had been turned out on the road with her two babes, without a friend in the world, because she could not pay the rent. The hext-door neighbour took her in, and kept *^r and her children for a week. Since the warrant against her husband had been taken out, he had threatened her, saying ^hat he carried a razor in his pocket, and that he would kill the one who gave him Speaking of defendant's habits, said that he stayed downstairs read- all night, and went to bed on the Allowing morning at six, where he would rema.in until the evening. Sometimes he Went out in the morning, and did not l'eturn until midnight and later. He Returned one morning at 3.30 with his ^ther, who was intoxicated, and having Only one bed, it was slept in by the old ^an, and she and her children^ had to shift best as they could downstairs. In reply to Mr. Spickett, witness said she purchased Quaker Oats because was the cheapest food she could buy. a, There was hardly a dry eye in Court s convolainant detailed her tale of misery. **Tan Evans, a neighbour, spoke to vesting the poor woman and her babes.

Cigarette Smoking in the Mine.
Cigarette Smoking in the Mine. Wattstown Fitter's Foolhardiness At Porth Police Court on Thursday, before the Stipendiary (Mr. D. Lleufer Thomas) and other magistrates, Thomas Jones, underground fitter at the United National Collieries, Wattstown, was sum- moned for a breach of the Coal Mines Regulation Act. Mr. W. Kensnole, Aber- dare, prosecuted for the Company. Price Jones, timberman in the 9-feet seam, No. 2 Pit, said that on the 7th inst. he met defendant near his working place. After a conversation, they parted, one going one way and the other another. A few minutes later, witness smelt smoke, and he and his butty proceeded by a roundabout way towards, the spot where defendant was working. On reaching a bend in the road, witness gave his lamp to his "butty," and crawled along in the dark until he was within 20 feet of the defendant, whom he saw seated on a. box puffing away at a cigarette. As witness got up to approach him he stumbled, and defendant, hearing a. noise, either swallowed or put away the cigar- ette. Witness then went forward and asked defendant whether he was not ashamed of himself, smoking in the col- liery where only four years ago a terrible explosion took place. Defendant replied For God's sake, don't report me I will buy you any presents you like with my wages." Witness retorted: "Do you think you can buy me? I would not for- give you if you gave me a handful of sovereigns." Witness then went back to his butty," and reported the matter to an official. John Kane, manager, No. 2 Pit, said that defendant had been employed at the colliery for sixteen years. The explosion five years ago took place almost on the spot where defendant was seen smoking. Witness added that he had had no pre- vious complaint against defendant for smoking underground, but he had seen him smoking on the surface, and had told him to stop it, ass, being a fitter, he was frequently up and down the pit. Price J'ones, recalled, said he had sus- pected someone of smoking underground for the past three months.. He warned defendant a. fortnight ago, when he thought that he smelt smoke coming from his direction. The Stipendiary said this was the worst breach of colliery rules he had had to adjudicate upon since he had been ap- pointed to the Stipendiaryshipj and his colleagues, who had been sitting there for many years, also assured him that during their experience they had not dealt with such a bad case. In this particular pit, one would ha.ve thought that everybody working there had had a sufficiently serious warning by what took place five years ago. when 119 persons lost their lives. Moreover, defendant had been kindly warned by Price Jones, but appa- rently the cigarette habit had got such a hold upon him that, as soon as he came to the pit-top after being underground, he wanted to smoke. Defendant was liable to imprisonment for a term of three months, but as he was a young man, they did not want to do anything that would spoil his future. His offence, however, could not be overlooked, and he would be sent to six weeks' imprisonment in the Second Division.

St. John's Ambulance Association.
St. John's Ambulance Association. Dinner and Presentation at Treherbert. A dinner and presentation meeting in connection with the Treherbert branch of the St. John Ambulance Association was held on Wednesday evening, 11th inst., at the Railway Bar Hotel. Mr. M. I. Walters (solicitor) presided. The dinner was admirably catered by Mrs. J. M. Ryan. In his opening remarks, the Chairman said that a class of this description ought to be held in every mining locality. The general public ought to support such classes, so that the injured could he at- tended to by those who had learnt the principles of first-aid. So far, the Tre- herbert Ambulance Class had not had the people's support, and they had been work- ing under adverse circumstances. A local Ambulance Brigade was a long-felt want which would soon be provided if the cause was adequately supported. He urged them all to support such an institution at all times when they had the opportunity of doing so. Mrs. Ryan was thereupon called to pre- sent Dr. Hinde, the instructor, with a silver-mounted ebony walking-stick, with a ivory handle. In responding, Dr. Hinde said they had worked together throughout the winter months, and he had been greatly struck by the willingness, keen enthu- siasm, and intelligence, of the students (applause). It usually took six months to prepare students for the first-aid examination, but all the Treherbert students had passed after only three months' tuition. Miss C. Rees was then called upon to present the first-aid certificates and medallions to the members of the class. Corporal Griffiths was presented with a label and medallion, whilst Corporal Harding received a. medallion. Each of the following privates received a certi- ficate :-W. Lewis, Chas. Jones, M. James, W. Thomas, J. Rees, J. Jenkins. T. Jenkins, G. Grant. W. Anfield, T. Anleld. W. Codd, T. E. Richards, J. R. Richards, P. Leyshon, H. J. Jones, M. Lewis, A. Yosper, and two others.

Ton-Pentre Police Court. Monday.—Before the Stipendiary (Mr. D. Lleufer Thomas), Mr. T. P. Jenkins, Mr. Enoch Davies, Alderman E. H. Davies, Alderman Wm. Morgan, Alder- man Richard Lewis, and Mr. R. S. Griffiths. TROUBLESOME MARY. Mary Price, a Pontypridd unfortunate, was brought up on a charge of being drunk and disorderly at Pontypridd on Friday last. P.C.'s Thomas and Evans proved the offence, which was denied by defendant. Prisoner was charged at Pontypridd on the previous Wednesday with a similar offence, the case being then adjourned to provide her an opportunity of going to a home. Prisoner, however, refused the chance. In reply to a. question, prisoner said she had plenty of work to do at her home in Penygraig. She was bound over under the Probation Act for two months, on condition that she did not enter a public-house or visit Pontypridd during that period. HAD TO BE CARRIED TO THS POLICE STAT-ION. David Davies, Pentre, popularly known as_ Dai Kilboa," was charged with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting the police. P.O. D. T. James said that at 8.30 p.m. on May 3rd, lie saw defendant in Ystrad Road, Pentre. He was very drunk, shouting and using indecent language, and a large crowd had gathered round him. Witness advised him to .go home. but he refused. P.C. Young and witness then took him into custody, and he became very violent. When near the Bridgend Hotel, he commenced kicking and striking both officers. A little further on, near the Parish Church, Ton, lie threw himself on the ground, and kicked out in all directions. He was eventually handcuffed, and had to be carried to the police station. He continued violent until he was placed in the cells. P.C. Young corroborated. Another charge of indecency was pre- ferred against defendant by P.C. Thomas, Pentre. For being drunk and disorderly, defen- dant was fined 10s. for the assault upon P.C. James, 30s.; upon Young, 206,; and for the indecent act, 15s. The Court Missioner was also instructed to speak to defendant with regard to his signing the pledge. DAMAGED POLICEMAN'S TUNIC. Samuel Jones, of no fixed abode, was charged with committing an illecent act, and doing damage to a constable's tunic. In respect of the first charge, a fine of 10's., or seven days, was imposed; and 15s., or ten days, and a shilling damages for the damage to the tunic. RODE ON JOURNEY. David Howells and Wm. Henry Owen, two young colliers engaged at the Eastern (Ocean) Colliery, Ton-Pentre. were charged with a breach of Rule 234 of the Coal Mines Regulation Act. Mr. Millward ap- peared to prosecute, and Mr. G. K. Jenkins (Messrs. Morgan, Bruce, Nicholas, and James) defended. William Thomas, nreman, said that on the 19th inst. he was on the main haulage road underground, when a journey of trams passed him. There were two per- sons on the journey besides the riders. He identified Owen as one of the men, and Howells afterwards admitted his guilt. John Griffiths, manager, who proved the rules, said that defendants were re- snectable young men. and had been in the employ. of the company for years. Mr. Jenkins, for the defence, admitted the offence, but pleaded in extenuation that the road where they were seen riding was level ground, and the danger, there- fore, was considerably minimised. Fines of 15a. each, including costs, were imposed. INTOXICATED FIREMAN. John Howells, assistant fireman at the same colliery, was charged w\th attempt- ing to descend the mine in an intoxicated condition. Mr. Millward again prosecuted for the company. Evidence was given by Geo. Vaughan, banksman, to the effect that on the 1st inst. defendant presented himself at the pit-top ond went into the cage prepara- tory to descending the pit. Witness observed that he was in such an intoxi- cated condition as to be totally unfit to go down, and got him out of the cage. John Griffiths, manager, said that defendant had been employed at the col- liery for a number of .years, and had borne an exemplary character. Since the offence he had been reduced in status. Defendant admitted the offence, declar- ing that his wife was accouched at the time, and having some brandy in the house, he took a drop, which overcame him. The Stipendiary expressed his regret at seeing a man who, by his own merit, had been promoted to the post of deputy fireman, charged with such an offence. It had already brought its own punish- ment in that he had been degraded to an inferior position, and for that reason he would deal with him leniently. Defendant was discharged with a caution. WATCH STOLEN WHILE OWNER SLEEPS. David Charles Roberts. Treorchy, was charged with stealing a silver watch, the property of Edward Richards, Blaen- gwynfi. Prosecutor said that on Saturday last he was waiting at Blaenrhondda Station for a train to Blaengwynfi, when he fell asleep. When he awoke, his watch was missing. P.C. Phillips proved the case. A fine of 91, or fourteen days, was imposed. TRESPASSING ON T.V.R. Morris Williams, John Collins, and Ernest James were fined 5s. each for tres- passing on the T.V.R. at Blaenycwm. HORSE AND CART UNATTENDED. Peter Gazzi, Treherbert^ was fined 5s. for leaving horse unattended. Thomas Mason was fined 10s. for a similar offence at Ystrad. COAL STEALING. The following were fined for stealing coal:—Thomas Jones and Edward Davies, Pentre, 5s. each; John Morris and Alfred Thomas, Gilfach Goch, 5s. each.

IH.U.miUIMIIHI IIHIIII .*e Willi III Ill Concerning YOUR EYES So Few People have eyes thfct are perfect, both for near and far vision, that everybody should have their sight tested accurately on the first symptoms of eye-strain. It is a Great Mistake to put off visiting an Optician until the eyes, from sheer neglect, can no longer do their work. Common Spectacles chosen at random, can do considerable damage to the eyesight; therefore, always visit a competent optician when you feel the need of spectacles, when you will have your eyes tested by scientific methods. You Lose Nothing as no charge is made for testing the sight; and if glasses are not necessary you will be told so, Chidren's Eyes should always be examined if they are at all dull or backward in learning, as this is frequently due to difficulty in seeing, and many a child.apparently dull-witted, becomes quick and bright after being fitted with proper glasses. Particular Attention is given to frame-fitting, so that the full benefit can be derived from the lenses, which is impossible with ill-fitting frames.
