Llanfairiechan Urban District Council. The monthly roeetin gwas held on Tuesday, the Chairman (Mr T. J. Owieo) presiding The other members present were Messrs W. U. Roberts, R. C. Evans, J. R. Wtos, O. Griffith, L. D. Jones, Peter Williams, Evan Jones, J. Harrison, H. Jorss, D. G. Roberts (chemist), T. G. Morgan, and Robert Hughes, with the Clerk (Mr W. H. Ellis). CORRESPONDENCE. A letter was received from the London & North-Western Railway Company, suggesting means whereby Llanfairfechan could be better adlvertised ,and it was referred to the Town Im- provident Association. Mr Nicholas Parkinson, Conway, wrote stat- ing that whilst trawling netar Llanfairfechan his trawling gear was caught in the piles of the Council's outfall sewer, damaging it to the ex- tent of 25s., which damage he expected the Council to make good, as the presence of the piles was not properly indicated. Mr Jorss stated that a buoy should be placed on the spot. 'The matter was referred to a committee. The Bangor and Beaumaris Guardians wrote notifying that it was incumbent upon the Dis- trict Council to appoint an Assistant Overseer, in succession to Mr T. M. Williams. The Carnarvonshire County Council stated that they had considered the complaint of Mr John Roberts, Milton Villa, that the work car- ried out by the County Council, as a protection to the village bridge, near the Llanfair Arms, prsvetn,tedi salmon, reaching higher reaches of the river. In the opinion oi the Surveyor's Com- mittee, nothing had been done to make it more difficult for the salmon to get to the higher reaches of the river then before the work men- tioned was undertaken, and it was doubtful whether it would be wise to facilitate the pas- sage of salmon to the shallow water above the bridge. Sverel members disagreed with the opinion of the Surveyor's Committee. VARIOUS. The Council diecidled to offer the land to Mr A. Sagar, lying between, his bungalow on the Promenade, and L. & N.-W. Railway, at an an- nual rent of 53., he to fence it off at his own expense.—A Committee was appointed to decide where to re-fix the poisting station which will have to be removed in conisquence. The Surveyor was instructed to prepare an estimate of the cost of providing a bridge to carry the road over Afon Gilan Sais, near the Three Streams. Plans of additions to the bungalow on the East Parade, for Mr. A. Sagar, were approved, and also an outbuilding at Tanymarian, for Mr R. Davies.

LLANRWST v. TAYLOR'S XI. The Llanrwst club on Monday entertained Mr. Taylor's XI. from Manchester on a tricky wicket. The home side were weak, owing to the failure of four of their number turning out, reserves having to be requisitioned, and the visitors ran out vic- tors by the narrow margin of II runs. For the home side the chief scorers were Blackwall, Ashby, and Jenkins, Chisholm also playing a use- ful not out innings. Score :— LLANRWST. MR. TAYLOR'S Xl. A. Carter st Taylor b G. O.

Colwyn Bay National Eisteddfod, IS LONDON "JEALOUS"? Thiers was a good attendance of members at .last night's meeting of the Calwyn Bay Eistedld!- fod Executive Committee, presided over by the Chairman, Mir. James Amjphleitt. Oil the proposition of the Chairman, a vote of ,sympathy was passed with the Rev. W. Hughes, the Hon. Secretary, in his bereavement by the ilamanitiecli death. of his daughter, Miss Katie Hughes. A long discussion took place on the recom- irnemdation of the General Purposes Committee that no further stops be taken. in, regard to the pavilion site until October next. Mr Rowland Williams objected to such delay, but it was exiplainled by Mr. William Jonias^ C.E., that the propoSiall would be certaiin to provie etCOinomioall and probably lead to the sav- ing of £ 80 or ^90. Tihis view was supported by Mr. Trehearne, who spoke from his expeiriemce of the Eistedd- fodlau at Rhyil, and finally the Committee's sug- gestions wene adoptied. A SPLENDID RECORD. The Chairman,, amidlsit applause, anmounced that the special prize fund amounted to the hajnidsomia sum of £ 511 as. 6d., which was £ 6g over the highest previous record. A RIIiGiHTPOLIIJCY. MUlch amiusemleint was caused by a letter re- ceived from Mr. Vincent Evans, Secretary of the NlatÎonal Eisteddfod Association, from which it appeared tihat the London Eisteddfod Committee are colillplaIning that greater publicity is being ,gi,ven to the Colwyn. Bay Eisteddfod, and that the welfare of the London Eisteddfod this year is thereby being somewhat prejudiced. Mr. Roberts, the Ge-neral Secretary, read the reply which he had. sent, stating that nothing had been. done by the Committee to advertise the Coilfwyin Bay festival; except what has been done on the initiative of the newspaper re- porters,. The Chairman remarked that it was quite true that the Colwyin Bay Eisteddfod received con- siderable publicity in the newspapers, but he did not think that the Cbmmittre were to, blame on that account. It was quite possible that they had created a precedent by admitting the re- porters intoi the Committee meetings, but for his own, part he considered; that was a very good coairse to pursue. As. the pressmen had been moisit discreet in publishing onily wihat would be to the adivanitage of the Eisteddfod. (Hear, hear.) The, reporters were evidently nationalists ,to a man. (Laughter and applause.) He thought that where a national instituitioni of that kind was conicerned the proceediings should 0, broiuight to the notice of the public throughout the kingdom. Mr. William Davies: The Lonidom people are a little jealous, Mr. Chairman. (Laughter and hear, hear.) The letter written, by the General Secretary was cordially approved of. The following deip-utation, was appointe& to wait upon the Eisteddfod Association for the purpose of presenting the list of sulbjects, viz. Sir J. Henbetrt Roberts, Bart., M.P., MIf. James Amphlett (.,Chaiinian.Qf the Committee and TOWiDJ Cbeiik), Mr. William Jontes, N. and S. W. Bank (Hlon, Treasurer), the Rev. W. Evans Jones (Penllyin), and the General Secretary, Mr. T. R. Roberts (Asaph).

Death of Canon David Jones, R.D., Penmaenmawr. A NOTABLE WELSH CLERGYMAN. With feelings of profound regret we have this week to record the death of Hev. Canon David Jones, Vicar of Penmaenmawr, which sad event took place at the Vicarage on Tuesday night. The deceased gentleman, who had reached the age of sixty one years, had been ailing for a long time, suffering from antemia. He was exceedingly well liked and held in the highest esteem by his parishioners. Canon Jones was a strong personality and had laboured hard in many ways for the Church. He was an Honorary Canon of Bangor Cathedral, Rural Dean of Arllechwedd, and Editor of "Y Cyfaill Eglwysig," besides being the author of numerous English and Welsh books. He was a native of the Vale of Aeron in Cardiganshire, his first vicariate in North Wales being at Newborough, Anglesey, from where he removed to Menai Bridge. Fourteen years ago he became vicar of Penmaen- mawr, and during this period he became most popular with the inhabitants, and for several years was returned as a Guardian of the Poor on the Conway Board of Guardians. He was always to the fore in Church matters, and very seldom was any charitable movement started in Penmaenmawr without the Vicar being one of the patrons. He leaves a widow, a son and daughter. The son, although only 13 years of age. holds a scholarship of ninety guineas at Bradfield College, and apparently has a very bright future before him. The funeral, which will be of a public character, will take place on Saturday, at 2.30 p.m., at Dwygyfylchi Cemetery, where, only a few weeks ago, his predecessor, the Rev. J. A. Howell, was laid to rest.

Serious Charge at Llanfair- fechan. A RAILWAY MASON COMMITTED. On Friday morning, a railway mason named Evan Meredith, hailing from Welshpool, was brought up at a Special Court at Bangor, by P C. Williams, Llanfairfechan, charged with having assaulted a little girl 12 years of age, named Deborah Jones, and living with her parents at Mona-terrace, Gerizim, Llanfairfechan, on the previous night. Sufficient evidence was tendered to grant a remand until Tuesday, when the prisoner was brought before a full bench of magistrates at Bangor. Evidence was given by the little girl, her father Owen Jones, Dr. Clifton Hughes, P.C. Williams, and P.C. Morris. From the evidence of P.C. Williams, it appears that he was near the Clergy House of Rest, when he heard pitiful screams from the direction of the foreshore. He ran towards the screams, and saw the prisoner acting improperly towards the little girl. The man ran away, and witness fol- lowed, eventually catching him, and prisoner said, For God's sake let me go; I am a rail- wayman. I will give you 5s. if you will let me go." In reply to the charge at the police station, prisoner said, I don't know what to say, I only touched her. She was always after me for a penny. She asked me to-night for a penny." The magistrates decided to commit the prisoner to take his trial at the next Quarter Sessions.

Abergele Presentations. MR. JUDSON'S MARRIAGE. Whatever Mr. G. H. Judson does, he does it with all his might. I don't believe in too much soft-soaping, and therefore I make no apology for being very brief and to the point with regard to the dinner which Mr. Judson gave to his friends and employees at the Harp Hotel, Aber- gele, on Tuesday night, to celebrate his mar- riage, which takes place to-day (Thursday) at Rhyl. Mr. Judson is taking for his wife Miss Sheffield, of Rhyl, and the match is unquestionably a good one. And now for the dinner. Among others present were Messrs. J. H. Judson, A. Sheffield, G. T. Evans, E. A. Crabbe, J. Pierce, W. H. Jones (Penybont), David Thomas, Elias Evans, M. R. Jones, W. P. Morris, Isaac Morris. R. Isaac Jones, J. Wright, R. Pickup, Hy. Roberts, J. Jones (Peol-street), J. Isaac Jones (Peel-street), J. Jones (Pensarn), J. Jones (coachman), J. Davies, Edward Williams, J. Hannah, Isaac Roberts, John Edwards, Thos. Davies, G. Perkins, C. Kemp, J. Pickup, D. Williams, E. T. Turner, Evan Roberts, William Williams, Robert Jones, Isaac Roberts (builder), John Roberts, Gwynne Sheffield, G. T. Morgan, S. B. Rogers, W. Dodd, Thos. Roberts, K. Osborne, Bertram Jones, A. P. Leigh, H. E. Thomas, C. Pierce, and B. C. Williams. If there are better caterers in North Wales than Mr. and Mrs. Williams, Harp Hotel, I should like to meet them. "The King" was proposed by Mr. Judson, who remarked that His Majesty was an ideal ruler. He was also a good sportsman. He had last week won the Derby." (Applause.) Songs followed by Messrs. B. C. Williams, W. P. Morris, Bertram Jones (Rhyl), R. Pickup, H. E. Thomas, K. Osborne, C. Pierce, J. Davies, J. Jones, and J. Perkins, and a recitation by Mr. B. Jones. The event of the evening was the presentation to Mr. Judson of a silver tea service by the mem- bers of the Urban District Council. Mr. Edward Williams, chairman of the Council, in making the presentation, wished Mr. and Mrs. Judson a long life of unalloyed happiness and prosperity. Mr. Judson, in returning thanks for the beauti- ful present, said that a story had gained currency that he was about to leave Abergele for good. Such was not the case. He and his prospective wife were too much delighted with Abergele to leave it. (Loud applause.) He was proud of the fact that a good feeling existed between himself and his employees at the tanyard. (Applause.) Mr. R. Pickup, on behalf of the tannery em- ployees, then presented Mr. Judson with a mag- nificent silver rose-bowl. Mr. Judson said he appreciated the presentation more than tongue could tell. Someone had mentioned something about the Conncil. All he could say was that he had done his best for Pensarn, which was his first love. (Applause.) He, however, was glad to say that he had the welfare of Abergele at heart as much as that of Pensarn. What was good for one was good for the other. Owing to lack of space and time, I am reluc- tantly compelled to come to the final full stop here and now. And in doing so I wish Mr. and Mrs. Judson another 80 years of prosperity. SEARCHLIGHT.

Abergele Sparks. A pretty wedding was solemnized at the Caer- salem Chapel, Llanddulas. yesterday (Wednes- day), when Mr. Isaac Evans, Bryn Her, and Miss Mary J. Williams, Pennington-terrace. were united in the bonds of holy matrimony. The wit- nesses to the marriage were Mr. Robert Evans and Miss Hannah Roberts. The Rev. J. A. Enoch officiated. Of course, the Llanddulas people are notor- iously kind-hearted, but that is no justification for throwing tons of rice helter-skelter about the village when a wedding takes place. Yn ngenau y sach mae cynilo." That's pure, unde- filed Welsh, if you please. ♦ POSTCARDS. To Mr. J. H. Judson.—Dear Sir,-By the time these lines are in print you will have put the ring on Miss Sheffield's third finger on the left hand. Yours has been a happy choice. May your only troubles be little ones, say I To Mr. Charles Davies.—Dear Charles,—You won the great Marathon race in a canter. Is it true that Moss gave you a lift on his motor-car ? Dim o dy lol di, Charlie. When are you going to fill that cup with champagne ? To Mr. Will Davies.—Dear Willie,—You would have won the Marathon race if -Charles had been considerate enough to have dropped down dead on Towyn-road. The second prize, however, was quite as useful as the first. Iechyd da Mae dy daid yn gosod pibellau gas yn "ty ni" heddyw. Un doniol ydi o. If you don't believe me ask J.S.J. SEARCHLIGHT.

Royal Cambrian Academy of Art. The private view took place on Saturday, the visitors being received by the President (H. Clarence Whaite, R.W.S.) in the Banquet Hall. The Vice-president (Cuthbert C. Grundy, R.I.), the Honorary Secretary (W. J. Slater) and other members of the Council and Academy were present. A large number of friends availed themselves of the opportunity of seeing Plas Mawr at its best, and enjoyed the visit. Tea was served in Queen Elizabeth's sitting room. The beautiful plants, which were much admired, were kindly lent by Mr. Albert Wood, J. P., D. L., and, considering the late season, they were in a very fine condition. The day was beautifully fine, and everyone appeared to enjoy the afternoon. The exhibition was pronounced a great success, and a few sales were effected. The Plas Mawr opened to the public on Mon- day, and will continue to be one of the lions of Conway until the 25th of September.

LLANRWST v. NORMAL COLLEGE. ANOTHER WALK OVER FOR THE ROOSTERS. The first match between these clubs took place at Gwydr Park on Saturday. Blackwall and Hayes opened the batting for the home side to the bowling of Goosey and Smith. Blackwall took the first ball and slipped Goosey to leg for a couple. The next delivery yielding a single, Smith's over yielded but a single. Goosey with his first delivery in the second over spreadeagled Hayes' wicket. One wicket for 2 runs. E. G. Williams-Meyrick, the next comer, opened cautiously but on changing ends, Smith easily beat him. Thomas,the captain of the "A" XI.,now joined Blackwall, but in the second over was badly run out, 16 for 3 wickets. Ashley pulled Goosey for a four, whilst Blackwall added several singles,land, playing with great caution, landed Smith for 4, Ashley obtaining three from the same bowler. Runs came freely, three boundaries being registered in quick succession, until Goosey found his way to Ashley's wickets when he had con- tributed 15. Orton followed, D. J. Jones going on vice Smith, and Blackwall was taken in the long slips by Whitney off his second delivery, after a lively innings of 38, including six 4's. Dennis Jones, the next batsman only added a single, when he was clean bowled by Goosey. Carter filled the vacancy and opened his account with a three, being beaten in the same over by Jones. 7 down for so. Chisholm,the next batsman in company with Orton, assisted in gradually rais- ing the total to 85, when he was beaten by Smith for 4, Fletcher being dismissed with the next delivery. G. W. Roberts brought up the rear and played a plucky game, contributing 12 runs, and with Orton completely captured the bowling. Several changes were made, but without success, both batsmen being quite at ease until Orton, who had made 56, was taken by Ferguson having completed a splendid innings without giving a chance, whilst Roberts carried his bat for 12. The Normals opened with Jackson and Evans to the bowling of Hayes and Blackwall. Jackson was out leg before with the total at 5, Evans being dismissed with the next delivery off Hayes without adding to the score.

OLD RYDALIANS' XI. v. RYDAL MOUNT SCHOOL. This Match was played at Rydal Mount on May 29th, and proved an interesting game in which the school, although not its full strength, was just beaten by the Old Boys. The Old Rydalians batted first and made a 120, although the score would have been less if all the catches had been held. The best feature of the innings of the school team was the batting of the Captain Barnsley, which showed much more decision than usual. Selby made some good strokes and Shillcock showed a power of judging the ball, which, with practice, ought to develop into good vigorous cricket. OLD RVDALIANS. RYDAL MOUNT SCHOOL. C.
