LLANDUDNO.
LLANDUDNO. CONVENTION—The convention which was held In the Town Hall last week was brought to a close on Sunday evening, when the principal speaker was Mr. Thomas, who with his wife is shortly leaving to take up missionary work in Korea. INCORPORATED SOCIETY OF MUSICIANS.—A movement is on foot to endeavour to arrange for the members of the Incorporated Society of Musicians to visit Llandudno during the season of 1911. GASWORKS.—It is reported that during the past five weeks the amount of gas manu- factured a.t the works has been 37,000 cubic feet in excess, of the amount for the corres- ponding period of last year, the actuai fig-ures being 8,468,000, as compared with 8.431,000 cubic feet. CONTRACTS—Mr. W. Willoughby Lanre, who recently secured the contract for the installation of the heating and lighting fittings for the Carnegie Free Library, Llandudno, has also secured the contract for rhe lighting, bell, and telephone fixtures for the Conway Isolation Hospital. IMPROVEMENTS ON THE PIER.— The work of driving piles for the enlarge- ment of the landing stage at the Pier Head is being proceeded with in a satisfactory manner, and It is understood that when the work is completed It will sreatly add to the already excellent faciMties for embarking and disembarkmg passengers. Alterations are also being made to the Pavilion which will add considerably to the seajtmg accom- modation. THE ELECTION.—The climax as far as Ltan- dudno is concerned to the recent political activity was reached on Tuesday, when poHing took place for the Arvon division of Carnarvonshire, the can- didates being Mr. WiHiam Jones, Liberal, and Mr Arthur Hughes. brother of the Rector of Llan- dudno, Unionist. There were three po!ling booths for the Llandudno area, they being situated at the National Schools, Church Walks: the Board School, Lloyd-street and the Board School, Craigydon. The Returning Oncers were respect- ively Mr. Hallmark. Mr. A. Conollv, and Mr. Sutton Jones. Both candidates had a good number of supporters, and appeared well supplied with motors and other vehicles lent by members of the respective parties. The fact that the two committee rooms are next door to each other enabled the supporters of each party to keep an e?e on their opponents, and this seemed to be pro- vocative of a lot of good humoured rivalry and banter, in which the large concourse of people who hung about most of the dClY joined in, but it is most gratifying to note that throughout the whole of the time there was nothing but the best feeling shown. Both parties were anxious to gain every vote, and many of the voters were brought by car from adjoining towns. Just before the close of the poll, Mr. Arthur Hughes, the Conservative candidate, paid a visit to his committee room, where he received a most cordial reception, while later on Mr. William Jones arrived at his head- quarters. where he was equally well received. Before leaving both candidates expressed their best thanks for the efforts which had been made on their behalf. HOCKEY.—It is understood that Mea&rs. C.

-....--. A Llanrwst Lecture…
A Llanrwst Lecture on the Great Ice Age. The members of the IIoreb Literary Society were on Monday evening accorded the privilege <-<f lisftening t? an intere'stin.g and instructive lecture on. The Great Ice Age, by Mr. Cara- doc Mill.?. The l<-cturer has previously dis- coursed on various topics oi interest, but cer- tainly Tuone better than that on Monday evening. The ma.tte.r was perhaps a little strange to his hearers, bnt as the remarks were illustrated later by photos taken in the immediate neighbour- hood by the lecturer, they assisted even the moat uninitiated to follow the meaning and truth of his assertions. It might be mentioned that these photographs are registered by the committee of the British Association for the advancement o-i science, and have a.l:o been used by Professor II. G. See ley. I-R.S., Professor of Geology, King's College. London Dr. R. D. Roberts, Secretary to the Gilchrist Trust; Mr. Besent I.c)we, M.A.. Banger University; and Mr. G. J. Wilham.s, II. 'M. Inspector oif Mines. The lecturer opened with an introductioti to I geology', which was necessary to describe the position of the glacial period on, the geological clock, which showed the great geological divis- ion of time and how they disclosed the earth's life history as written in the rocks. Their foasil contents tell us of past ages, measured in mill- I ions of years. The rocks have-, however, since their formation, been much contorted and unit- ed. But by careful Mudy geologists have been able to decipher their consents and place them in true chronological order. The Great Ice Age occured quite recently, 200,000 years ago, com- pared with geological time, as measured in millions of years. During the Ice Age the Brit- i.-)h Isles and many other countries in the same latitude enjoyed the conditions now prevailing in Northern lands, such as Nova Zembia, Spitz- bea-gen., Greenland, Siberia, &c. During that age the following countries were glaciated — Lapland, Norway and Sweden, Russia, Ger- many, Italy, Spain and Portugal, Sardinia., Servia, Roumania., Turkey, Greece, also in America, Nevada, Missouri Ohio, and Phila- delphia. The lecturer dealt with the subject under the following divisions:—i, Glaciers and their work; 2, Evidences of ancient glaciers; 3, The cause of an Ice Age. In describing the life history of Glacier the speaker said that falling s'now does not add to the height of a mourutain, but slides down as an avalanche or consolidate into nevi in the valleys.. As the s.ruow consolidates, the mass previously formed is pushed downward, and is gradually converted into solid ice through pressure. The glacier which moves very slowly over an irre- gular noor, breaks, and adapts itself to its channels, and blends again. Fragments of rocks are carried on its surface and ground into mud on its sides and noor, and the valley be- comes smoothed and worn by ice. Glaciers terminate in torrents. In Arctic regions glaciers cjome down to the sea and break into icebergs, being carried for hundreds of mi!es in that fo-rm, until they eventually dissolve. They descend to the sea level in Xevfoundlandi, and are shorter in the Tropics and ascend higher. There are evidences of the existence of glacier's in the British Islands, which now remains in the smoothed mountain fLanks, perched blocks, boulder clay, moranies, &c., &c. The clay gives the geographical history of the movement of the lost glaciers. The boulder clay is spread in England almost like a continuous geological deposit, but much denuded. A much older boulder c!ay was formed in the Permian- IrLaa period in India and South Africa. The low temperature of glacial periods might have be'en due to the former height of the land. The cause of an Ice Age as enunciated in the astronomical theory was fully dealt with, and the Lecturer also described in detail life during the Ice Age. The jllus.tra.tion s were thrown on the screen by a limelight lantern, which was capably manipul- ated by Mr. Mills, senior. The lecturer at the close was accorded a very hearty vote of thanks. The chair was occupied (in the absence of the president) by Mr. R. T. Roberts.

The New Oath. The Welsh witnesses and juryman at Car- narvon Assizes on Saturday found great diffi- culty in repeating the new oath, which has superseded the method of kissing the Book," the words "true deliverance make being par- ticularly troublesome to them. One witness spent several minutes endeavouring to repeat the oa<th, and after many failure's he tried to say it in Welsh and manjaged to do so, but to the gTesA.anrL-gem-ent of the Court he afterwards picked up a New Testament and kissed it.

Carnarvon United v. Llandudno…
Carnarvon United v. Llandudno To THE EDITOR OF THE Weekly A-ews. I Sir,—Will you allow me a short space in your paper to protest against the unsportsmanlike action of the Carnarvon United Football Club In scratching their match with Llandudno In the Welsh Amateur Cup Tie for Jan. 22nd. I cannot believe that It was because of election day. What voters they have In the team or committee had ample time before starting to register their votes, and I am sure they did not want to take part In the scenes that evidently took place later on In the night. What, then, was the true reason ? Was It because they were afraid to get beaten ? Or was It because they thought the W.A.C. Is not worth defending? I believe they have not got that stalwart player, yea, verily, their "back bone." But even he is not the team, great player that he is. They cannot say they could not raise a team, as they offered money to the Llandudno Committee to go and play at Carnarvon. However, I hope In the interest of football the "Welsh Association" when the case comes before them will make them pay, and pay heavily, for If the holders wont play and defend they better far should discontinue to have a cup.—Yours, &c. DISGUSTED WEEKLY READER.

I Hemmerde for East Denbigh- shire. The conditions of the poHing on Tues- day all pointed to another great majority for Mr. Hemmerde. There are twenty- one districts in the division, and in aimost every one of them there was an over- whelming preponderance of the Lihera! colours. The populous village of Rhos, which is the tartest in the constituency, was a study in scarlet. The miners wore red scarves, and the women and children red blouses and hats. Across the --treets lines were hung from which were suspend- ed various garments of the same hue. Z, Bands of youngsters paraded the thorough- fures carrying effigies of the Tory candi- date, whose colours were conspicuous by their absence The countings took p!ace at Wrexham on Wednesday. Just before the poUing closed a hoy aged nine, a son of Police Constable Morgan, ofHo!t. was run over by a car, and it is feared that his injuries will terminate fataity. During the polling hours, white a motor-car containing Mr Robertson, acting sheriff, Mr J. Parry Jones, deputy- sheriff, and Major Leadbetter, chief- constable of Denbighshire, was passing through Rhos it was pelted with mud, &c., and some persons hung on to the hood of the car. The hood springs were broken, but no one was Injured. The gentlemen named were making an official round of the poHIng booths.

-----,--Polling in the Arvon…
Polling in the Arvon Division. Mr. William Jones Again I Victorious. Polling took place on Tuesday in three of the North Wales Cou!itIes--North Carnarvon, Hast. Denbigh and Mont- gomeryshire. On both sides there was exceptional activity, and great efforts were made to get all their available supporters to the poll. The weather fortunately was fine, and there was no dimculty in getting to the polling stations. t. North Carnarvon. 'For the polling in the Arfon division there was excellent weather. At eight o'clock, when the booths opened, it was very cold for the night had been frosty, but during the forenoon and the greater part of the afternoon there was bright, warm sunshine, and the air was dry. At Llandudno th.ere was nothing in the streets to suggest that an election contest was in progress beyond the occasional passing of a vehicle decorated with the party colours. A few motor-cars were seen similarly adorned. In Upper Mostyn street, were the Liberal and Conservative Clubs are situated next door to each other, there was considerable excitement, espec- ially in the atternoon. when a kind of competition in decoration began between the rival institutions. The front of both establishments were, of course, already gay with the bright co!onrs of the cartoons I pasted upon them. and the Unionists be- g'an the contest by putting out a Union Jack. The Liberals replied by hanging t, 6 one out of their window. The streets at the time were quite thronged with sym- pathisers of one or the other, and there was a cheer wh<n the Liberal nag appear- ed. Immediately the Conservatives came out with a supply of blue muslin, which they began winding round the stem and branches of a tree opposite their premises at the end of the footpath. This stimul- ated their opposing neighbours to further feats, and they appeared with another big flag and also streamers, which were stretched from an upstairs window of the club to another tree and to a lamp-post The Conservatives set to work to wind their blue material round the pillar of the street lamp, but, as this was considered to be within the Liberal territory, a crowd of young men and lads proceeded to tear off the decorations, and would not allow the Tones to touch the lamp-pillar. Red and yellow crinkled paper was then brought and wrapped round the Liberal tree, whereupon the Tory young men took flight into the business quarter of Mostyn-street for supplies of blue paper with which to complete the adornment of their tree. The competition was the cause of much amusement, and the crowd remained In front of the two clubs unti! quite !ate in the evening.

Mr. Vincent is described as the strongest opponent that could have been brought against Mr. L!oyd George but it is noteworthy that Mr. Vincent's poll was eleven tess than that of Cotonet Ptatt In iC)oo, though 108 above the num- ber given to Mr. Naylor at the !ast elec- tion.
