SOUTH WALES INDUSTRIES.
SOUTH WALES INDUSTRIES. MESSRS. TAYLOR & SONS' CYCLE WORKS.— One of the oldest established, most flourish- ing, and best equipped cycle works in Wales, or the West of England, are Taylor and Sons' Cycle Works, in Commercial Street, Newport. Mr. Taylor, senior, is an expert in cycle matters, and his inventive genius is shown in the ever popular Rolyat cycle, which is a model of good workmanship and easy running. Mr. Taylor is ably assisted by his sons, who have been thoroughly trained in the business. There is an increasing demand for the firm's cycles and accessories, not only in South Wales, but from many parts of England as well. No reader of the CELT interested in cycles should omit a visit to the firm's establishment.
Notes and News.
Mr. Lleufer Thomas, stipendiary magis- trate for Pontypridd, now resides in Cardiff. Madame Hughes Thomas's Royal Welsh Ladies' Choir has been holding a series of excellent concerts in North Wales. Amongst the members of a recent audience was Mr. Lloyd George, who was delighted with the Welsh programme. In a small shop window in North Wales a correspondent noticed in bold letters the announcement Ginger Bear." Evidently that beer was their own bruin Baldness in men and women" is a present-day announcement, but we are often reminded that baldness in men is often caused through boldness in women. Gwilym Owen, a pupil of the Llanberis County School, aged 12, has been admitted, as the result of a competitive examination recently held, to the Christ's Hospital Blue Coat School." He is the son of a quarryman at Llanberis, and will receive free tuition and boarding for a number of years. The death is announced of Mr. Robert Roberts, at the age of 81 years. He was one of the founders of the Corwen Eisteddfod, having been a member of the Committee in the sixties and seventies. He was the sword bearerer at the Gorsedd on August Bank Holiday, but at the time he was in a very feeble state of health. Swansea sands have presented a very animated appearance these last few weeks. They were crowded with visitors from all parts of South Wales as well as the West of England, and it was most interesting to watch them. Swansea is a really good place in which to spend a pleasant holiday, having the advantages of both a big town and a seaside resort. Mr. W. Trew has been re-elected Captain of the Swansea Football Club. Mr. Trew is a very popular young man, a true sportsman, and plays the game for the sake of the game. He has played for the Welsh International team on several occasions, and is the idol of the Swansea football crowd. The trade of South Wales continues to show great development and expansion. The G.W. Railway contemplate big railway extensions: important new collieries are being sunk at Bedwas, and Port Talbot is extending its industries. Port Talbot is a coming port. The success of the Welsh National Agri- cultural Society's show at Llanelly amply justifies the decision of the committee to make it a movable one. No doubt when the show is held at Cardiff and Swansea the financial results will be even higher than they were in Llanelly and Aberystwyth. Among the many beautiful photographs to be seen at the Rembrandt Studio, Duke Street, Cardiff, is one of the Rev. Aaron Davies, D.D., the Venerable Calvinistic Methodist Minister. The photographs taken at this studio are wonderfully artistic. A CURIOUS TOMBSTONE.—" With refer- ence to the quaiut epitaph quoted in the CELT of the 6th inst., it is interesting to note," writes a Sutton correspondent, that a similar inscription is to be found on a tombstone in Sutton churchard. I enclose a photograph of it." This is indeed curious, and the inscription on the stone runs as follows :— Here resteth in Peace the Body of WILLIAM JUNIPER, ESQRE., Who departed this Life Deer. 11th, 1812, Aged 56 Years. Late SMITH, of the BOROUGH of SOUTHWARK, and to the HONBLE. BOARD of ORDINANCE, & of JUNIPER HALL in this Parish. My Sledge & Hammer lie declined, My Bellows too have lost their wind, My Fire's extinct, my Forge decayed, And in the Dust my Vice is laid. My Coals are spent my Iron gone, My Nails are drove my work is done, My Fire dried Corpse here lies at rest My Soul Smoke-like soars to be blest. CHEAPER GAS IN PROSPECT. Consumers of gas in the district of the Gas Light and Coke Company will be glad to note that in the speech of the Governor (Mr. Oorbet Woodall), at the meeting of shareholders on the 5th instant, it was foreshadowed that there would be a further reduction in the price of gas at the end of this year, making the seventh reduction in eight years. This continuous decrease in the price charged by the Gas Light Company is very welcome alike to the consumers, who benefit to the extent of nearly £100,000 a year by every reduction of Id, per 1,000 cubic feet; to the shareholders, whose dividend can only rise as the price falls and to the employees, whose share of the profits also varies in- versely with the price of gas. The only people not pleased are the electricians, as every reduction in the price of gas further increases the already substantial difference in cost between electricity and gas. One of the two old-age pensioners residing at Bardsey, the lonely island off the coast of Carnarvonshire, died last week in the person of Miss Williams, Plasbach. Miss Williams, who was near eighty years of age, was born on the island, and had re- mained there all her life. It is thus by deaths and removals that Bardsey is being rapidly depopulated. There has been no birth on the island for several years, and several of the inhabitants during recent years have migrated to the mainland. One of the last emigrants was the "king of the island-John Willoams. Mr. Lloyd George, accompanied by the Rev. John Williams, Brynsiencyn, visited Newborough on Friday for the purpose of inspecting the Prichard Jones Institute. Sir J. Prichard-Jones, Bart., himself took the Chancellor through the building. After- wards the party motored over to see Mr. D. Pryse Jones, who has been laid up with an accident. The Chancellor exhibited much interest in the institute, and questioned Mr. Pryse Jones as to how far the library was appreciated and used by the residents in Sir J. Prichard-Jones's native village, and was evidently gratified with Mr. Pryse Jones's reply that fifty-eight volumes were issued weekly.
