Scholar's Success and Bereavement. Ivor Williams, son of a poor Port Penrhyn (Bangor) labourer, who a couple of years ago achieved the distinction of heading the list in the severe Central Welsh Board examinations, thereby taking the gold medal annually awarded by R.M: Inspector of Schools, and also in the same year won an £SO scholarship at Oxford, on Friday morning received two items of news— first the death of his father, and secondly that he himself had secured the great distinction of a first-class pass in classical mods. at Oxford. Williams, who is a Friars schoolboy, nineteen or twenty years of age, is immensely popular in Bangor, and has the hearty sympathy of all in his sad bereavement, while all at the same time rejoice in the new distinction he has achieved.

The Colwyn Bay National Eisteddiod. THE PAVILION PROBLEM. Mr. James Amphlett presided over a meeting of the Executive Committee of the above at the Council Chambers, on Thursday evening, when there was a fair attendance of members. CONDOLENCE. A vote of condolence was passed with the widow and family of the late Mr. T. G. Osborn, who was the Vice-Chairman of the Literary Committee. The minutes of the Music Committee were confirmed, and! it was decided to thank Miss Roberts, of the Vicarage, for her kind services in accompanying the choir during the indisposi- tion of Miss Nellie Roberts. The estimated cost of the orchestra was over ^180. Miss Bessie Jones was engaged as harpist. NO INTOXICATING DRINK TO BE SOLD. The General Purposes Committee recom- mended that the usual stalls be allowed in the grounds for the sale of music, books, &c., and that a refreshment stall be provided, but the sale of intoxicating liquors would be prohibited. TEMPORARY GORSEDD CIRCLE. The report of the Gorsedd Committee was presented, and it was stated that the bards had intimated that owing to the distance of the per- manent Gorsedd Circle at the Flagstaff from the pavilion site, they had decided that a temporary Gorsedd circle should be provided, and a Com- mittee was appointed to take the matter in hand. DIVIDED OPINIONS ON COST OF BUILDING. The report of the General Purposes Commit- tee was submitted, and a recommendation was made that the tenders of Messrs. Woodhouse and Son, Nottingham, who erected the Swansea and Llangollen pavilions, be accepted for the erection of the building at Colwyn Bay, at a cost of ^1,415. The building would be of timber, with a roofing of timber and felt. The firm offered to provide a roof of corrugated iron for £ 120 less, but the architects (Messrs Darbishire & Smith) advised that such a cover- ing would be unsatisfactory owing to the noise which would be caused during rainy weather. The General Secretary (Mr. T. R. Roberts) stated that he had gone to some trouble to pre- pare particulars relating to accommodation, and he was of opinion that a pavilion to seat 6,000 persons, with a total accommodation for 8,000 persons, would suffice. He was not in favour of the building that would cost £ 1,415. In ad- dition to that sum, there would be £120 to add for rent of ground, ^75 for the architects, and ¡: 10 for the solicitor. The total amount was much above the average. The average attend- ances at the Eistedd/fod; each day for the last ten years was 6,250, and 4,150 at the evening concerts. In 1908, at Llangollen,, the maximum attendance was 8,500. A pavilion to hold 10,000 people would be absurd. The average of seating accommodation for 6,000 would meet the case, in his opinion. In conclusion, the Secretary, referring to the recommendation of the General Purposes Committee, said: I submit very respectfully that it will take us all our time to make ends meet." The Rev. Thomas Parry, J.P., said that there was some Balfour or other carrying what they did in the General Purposes Committee to the House of Lords. (Laught,er.) Their nine months' working on that Committee, when it came be. fore the General Committee, was destroyed. The Rev. William Hughes said he generally agreed with their General Secretary in what he said, but on this matter he did not agree with him. The question was a vital one, and they must not spoil their Colwyn Bay pavilion. Col- wyn Bay was central and convenient for the people of Anglesey to attend. It was absurd to have a smaller pavilion than was suggested by the General Purposes Committee for the people of the whole of Wales. He had heard of people who were coming to Colwyn Bay owing to the town's great attractions, as well as the Eistedd- fod, and they must give the people plenty of room in their building. At Rhyl there were 10,000 persons m the pavilion on one day, and when Lloyd George and the choirs were at the Colwyn Bay Eisteddfod, if they had only seating accommodation for 6,000 people they would lose money. He was in favour of a building as big as that at Rhyl, and let them not have it said that Colwyn Bay failed in the matter of accom- modation. when it was required. Their good Secretary was misleadin;g them in this matter. Mr. Treheame could not see his way to see the pavilion reduced again, and he was in favour of the contract with the roof of timber. If they had Mr. Roberts as their General Sec- retary in Rhyl, they would have had hundreds of pounds as a surplus. In him they had an ideal Secretary. (Hear, hear.) He (the speaker) was of opinion, that they could not build a pavilion for ZI,200, therefore he supported the iecommendation of £ 1,415. Mr. George Bevan, moved an, amendment that the matter be referred back to the General Pur- poses Committee in order that the contract might be reduced. They had two things which they could do. They could have the size of the pavilion reduced, and they could also save £120 by having a galvanised roof. They had letters from experts anent the accoustic properties of an iron roof, which was as good if not superior to a wooden one. Their architect must have a prejudice against iron, when so many good judges were in favour of. it. One of their chief singers had said that singing in an iron build- ing was preferable to singing in a wooden, building. When people went to Llangollen, they had to go to the Eisteddfod oir go no- where. (Loud laughter.) In Colwyn Bay they had extra attractions, and there would be many attractions at the time of the Eistedd- fod that would be fishing for patronage, and would be catching fish intended for their net. (Laughter.) If they had an iron roof, it would displease nobody but their architects. Mr. William Davies, in seconding Mr. Bevan, said it was a most serious matter, and he would be very sorry to see Colwyn Bay in the same position as Llandudno when they had their Eis- teddfod. But when they were overburdening the Eisteddfod, they were all in the position of putting on the last straw which broke the camel's back. He had always iound plenty of room at Eisteddfodiau on the days of the chief choral competition, and it was not likely they would get the building full every day.. Instead of 6,1,415, it was more than likely, before every- thing was finished, that the pavilion would cost them nearer ^1,700 if they adopted the recom- mendation of the General Purposes Committee. Mr. J. Berth Jones wished to say that by having a corrugated iron roof the Committee would not save £ 150 by about Zioo, as there would be some money to be spent on a sound- ing board if the corrugated iron roof recom- mendation was adopted. The discussion lasted till a late hour, and then the proposal of the General Purposes Com- mittee was referred back to, them, with instruc- tions to present a modified scheme, the cost of carrying out which would not be more than [1,200. This is to. be effected by covering the building with corrugated iron and by reducing the seating capacity from 8,000 to 6,000, with standing room for another 2,000 persons. The resolution to refer back was carried by twenty votes to five.

Visit of Baden-Powell to Flintshire. In connection with the rapid advances made in the Boy Scout movement in, Flintshire, Sir R. Baden-Powell has decided to visit Flintshire on May 2nd in order to inspect the scouts in the field adjoining the County School, Hawarden, at 5 p.m. It is anticipated that between 200 and 300 scouts will be on review. Sir Robert will afterwards address a meeting in the County I School Hall regarding the complete organisa- tion of the county.

Mr. J. C. Pennington. PRESENTATION AT COLWYN BAY. At Lewis's Cafe, on Saturday evening, Mr. J. C. Pennington, who recently resigned his position as Gas Manager to the Colwyn Bay Urban District Council, was entertained to din- ner by the staff of the Gas Department. Ad- vantage was taken of the occasion to present Mr. Pennington with a framed enlargement of a photograph of his late staff as a token of esteem and regard upon his retirement from the position of Engineer and Manager after thirteen years service. Mr. Walter Groom, who made the presenta- tion, spoke of the regret he felt that Mr. Pen- nington should be severing his connection witn them, for each and every member of the staff had always found it both a privilege and a pleasure to work under his supervision. (Hear, hear.) They all experienced the deepest regret at his departure, and sincerely hoped that he might be successful in any undertaking which he might enter upon in the future. (Applause.) Mr. Francis Dixon, spoke of his sorrow at Mr. Pennington's departure, and expressed the hope that his future life might be successful and prosperous. Mr. J. T. Newton referred to his relation of seven years with their late manager, and joined in wishing him success in the future. Mr. John Chaplin, the oldest servant con- nected with the Gas Works, endorsed the re- marks of the previous speakers, but said they had omitted to state one thing. In Mr. Pen- nington's next undertaking they would all hope to be with him. (Cheers.) Mr. Pennington,, whose evident emotion- caused him to pause frequently in the course of his remarks, addressed the company as Fel- low workmen." (Applause.) He was a work- man like the rest of them, he said, and should always remain, one. (Applause.) For one reason, he would rather have gone ten miles in the' opposite direction than be present that night, for such an occasion touched a man in his ten- derest place. All the same, it was the fourth time he had undergone a similar ordeal there and elsewhere, and he would assure them that he should never part with the photograph as long as he lived. It would take its place among scores of other gifts at home, and he hoped that after his time his son, would treasure it as evidence that at all events his father got on well with the workmen at Colwyn Bay. (Hear, hear.) Having referred to the photograph as being a splendid specimen of the photo- grapher's art, Mr. Pennington said that perhaps he might be permitted to be a little retrospec- tive. He was appointed Engineer and Manager at the Gas Works in 1897. He did not seek the position, but was offered it through the influ- ence of the late Vicar of the parish (the Rev. Venlaibles Williams), the late Mr. John Porter, and the late Mr. William Earp. And he thought he might safely say that never had man firmer .friends. He did -not wish to enter upon ccrar troversial matters, but would mention, that when he arrived in 1897 the Company had paid the previous Christmas a dividend of 7^2 per cent., and he believed that a sum of £ 600 paid that dividend. As a prudent man, however, upon taking up his position, he looked through the accounts, and found that the old Company were in reality £ i,ioo in debt. Even had they paid no dividend that year they would still have been £500 in, debt. The first question Mr. John Porter asked him was with reference to exten- sions, but of course the debt had first to be wiped off. He arrived on May 31st, 1897, and at the end of that year the Company paid 5 per cent, and the debt had been, reduced by -f540. The following year the dividend was 7% per cent., and it had been earned. The succeeding year 10 per cent dividend was paid, and it also had been earned, as was the case the year after, when 10 per cent. was again paid, and a sum placed to. reserve. Finally, four and a half years after his arrival, the debt was com- pletely wiped off, and upon the Council acquir- ing the Gas Works every shareholder otf the Company holding.,Cioo worth of stock received the sum of Z328- (Applause.) In 1897 the capital was £ 20,000, and it had since grown to ^95,000. During that time not once had there been a consulting engineer over him, nor yet a clerk of works. Not a cent's worth of assistance had he received, and he was the only Council official who could say it. Throughout the time he was increasing the capital of the concern from Z20,000 to £ 95,000 he had not incurred extras to the amount of £130, as might be seen by reference to the books of the Accountant. (Hear, hear.) As to his workmen, he did not suppose a man had ever received better support in that respect, and it was with their assistance that he was enabled to secure such a record. (Hear, hear.) When he first came the wages of the stokers were 28s. a week for a twelve hours' day. At present they received 35s. for an eight- hour day. (Applause.) Never had he sought to secure the sweating of his workmen to con- tribute to his success. As one of the staff, he had endeavoured to be the workmen's friend. (Hear, hear.) Throughout his career he had taken up that position, and he would take it up as long as he lived. The officials of the staff had always been a happy family, and; as to the workmen, although he had often given some of them what in, Yorkshire was termed a wig- ging,"—(Voices: We were none the worse for it'" and laughter)—they had always got on well together, and in the course of his thirteen years among them he had not had cause to dismiss a idoizen men. Speaking in general terms, the men had served him loyally, and he trusted they would render similar service to their new Man- ager, Mr. Smith. He had known Mr. Smith personaHy and intimately for ten years, and was sure Mr. Smith would do well if he were left alone. (Hear, hear.) Speaking for himself, they would all acknowledge that whilst Man- ager he had been so in very truth, and not in name only. From his thirty years' experience ._U_- of controlling men, he knew it to be a fact that one never got the best out of a man if he were driven. In conclusion, Mr. Pennington re- marked that he would like it to go forth to the ratepayers of Colwyn Bay that if they were able to discover a gas concern similar in size to their own, capitalised to a like amount, that showed such good results, they would have done remarkably well. He would ever treasure the presentation they had just made him, and he had no hesitation in saying that he would far prefer that evidence of the goodwill of the staff to a testimonial from the Council. (Cheers.) Mr. Pennington's health was then drunk amidst manifestations of great enthusiasm, and after the singing of He's a jolly good fel- low," cheers were given, again, and again re- newed. In reply, Mr. Pennington thanked the com- pany for ;the way in which they had received the toast, and mentioned that Mr. T. J. Linekar, manager of the Gas Office and secretary to the old Company, had personally expressed his re- gret at being unable to attend that evening. Mr. Linekar, Mr. John Chaplin, and Mr. David Jones were the oldest members still associated with the undertaking. Mr. J. T. Newton proposed that the very best wishes of the gathering be conveyed to Mrs. Pemningiton. Mr. David Jones seconded, and it was carried amid applause. Mr. Robert Jackson gave some interesting re- miniscences of lamp-lighting experiences, and his humour frequently drew forth hearty laugh- ter. A remark of his caused Mr. Pennington to mention thait during the first two years he was at the Gas Works they were in such a state that never did he sleep one night through in his bed. Mr. John Chaplin endorsed this, and said that during that time both he and Mr. Pennington worked all day Sunday. Mr C. R. Chaplin referred to Mr Pennington's Ifrank and open nature, and expressed his will- ingne-sa to follow him. anywhere, whilst Mr. Roger Hughes also spoke appreciatively of Mr. Pennington's character. Mr. Walter Groom hoped that Mr. Penning- ton's son, Gilbert, might have a happy and prosperous life, and spoke of the interest felt in him by the members of the staff. (Applause.) In the course of the evening a programme of music was given, Mr. J. T. Newton, who ren- dered a pianoforte solo, being the accompanist. Among those who took part were Mr. J. R. Tozer, Mr. Robert Jackson, Mr. Pennington, Mr Francis Dixon and Mr. Bert Chaplin. The func- tion closed with the singing of "Auld Lang Syne." The Honorary Secretary df the movement for making the presentation to Mr. Pennington was Mr. J. T. Newton the photograph and enlarge- ment being by Mr. J. W. Thomas. The back- ground to the group is the large gas-holder which Mr. Penningtojn built, and named, at the suggestion of the late Rev. Venables Williams, Mafeking," the relief of which town was an- nounced the day the first plate was laid. Mr. Pennington, is a native of Elland, York- shire, in which town he was organist and choir- master of the Congregational Church for a period of 25 years. Upon leaving to go to Col- wyn Bay, Mr. Pennington was presented by the members of the congregation with a handsome piano and a solid gold hunter watch suitably inscribed. Mr. Pennington was for many years captain of the Elland cricket team, and in that capacity had the distinction of giving the famous cricketer, G. H. Hirst, his first professional en- gagement. In 1878 Mr. Pennington played for Eighteen of Elland and District against the first Australian team, and has since played cricket whenever possible.

Conway Horse Show. A SPLENDID FINANCIAL SUCCESS. The final meeting of the General Com- mittee of the twenty-third Conway Horse Show was held in the Town Hall on Friday afternoon. Mr. James Pollitt occupied the chair, and there were also present Messrs. Joseph Taylor, W. J. Bushnell, D. Cunningham, Sam Norbury, Elias Davies, Thomas Parry, Charles M. Lees, Hugh Jones (Black Lion) and Jos. T. Jones, with the Secretary (Mr. T. O. Morgan). The Secretary presented the balance sheet of the Show held on Easter Monday, from which it appeared that a profit of nearly ,160 had been made. The Chairman said they might congratulat- themselves upon the success of their undertake ing, which was due in no small measure to their Secretary. (Hear, hear.) Mr. C. M. Lees proposed, and Mr. W. J. Bush- nell seconded the adoption of the balance sheet, and coupled with it a hearty vote of thanks to thanks to the Secretary. Mr. Lees remarked that he had been connected with the Show for several years, and had never known a man to fill the arduous and difficult position of Secretary in such a successfull way as their energetic and estee ed friend and co-worker, Mr. Morgan. (Applause.) Owing to a mistake by a competitor in the number of his card, there had been a misunder- standing as to the winner in class 21 for moun- tain ponies. The matter was satisfactorily ad- justed, and it was resolved that the prize be sent to Mr. Robert Williams, Ffrith Llan, Eglwys Bach. It was also resolved that the prizes in class S for in-foal mares, be sent to the respective win- ners without further delay. The Secretary mentioned that he was being continually badgered by members of the Com- mittee owing to the fact that there had been no dinner arranged in connection with the Show. The gentlemen who complained, however, never raised the matter at the Committee meetings. It was proposed by Mr. D. Cunningham, seconded by Mr. Charles Lees, and carried unani- mously, that a dinner be held in the near future, on a Wednesday, at the Erskine Hotel, tickets to be 3s. The actual choice of date and arrange- ment of the function was left to the Secretary.

Canadian News. The maintenance of law and order in Western Canada is a theme upon which the American settler dwells with enthusiasm, and this testi- mony in the American press is not without its practical effect on the movement Canadawards from the States, which is growing with leaps and bounds. Mr. Alfred J. Morris, the Commissioner of the Board of Trade, Prince Rupert, has been talking in Montreal of the remarkable progress that has been made in the new Pacific coast city since the sale of the town, lots to the public less than a year ago. The public evidently have been quick to recognise that Prince Rupert offers probably one of the last chances of getting into a great seaport railway terminus at its birth, and borrowing from the experience of the other great cities on the Pacific Coast, people are grasping the opportunity of investing in the new city. Speaking of the town itself, Mr. Morris states that it possesses the finest harbour on the North American contin-ent;-if not in the world. Vast coal areas have been discovered near the Yellowhead Pass, on the Grand Trunk Pacific railway. The coal is stated to be equal in quality to that of any other in Canada. The great field is situated at the head waters of the McLeod and Pembina rivers. It has been es- timated that there are in view eight hundred million tons. In the year 1908, a million tons of coal was imported into the Canadian West from Pennsylvania. With the completion, of the G.T.P., the West will have an abundance of coal of its own. The line will be completed, and in operation to the Pass, by the end of the year, when the coal will probably be distributed in the West. This discovery is of importance to the whole country. It will enable manufacturers to establish in the West, and will help the com- mercial operation of the railways. The Canadian emigration figures for the current fiscal year will establish new records. From April, 1909, up to the end of February, 1910, eleven months, the total immigration was 175,729, as compared with 130,444 for the eleven months of the last fiscal year, an increase of 35 per cent. The total immigration, from the United States for the eleven months was 86,488, compared with 50,650, an increase of 71 per cent. The estimate given a year ago, viz., that 70,000 settlers from the United States would enter Canada during the 12 months has thus been far exceeded, with one month's return still to come. A hundred thousand Americans for the next 12 months is not considered to be an unreasonable estimate. A new industry, that of the manufacture of glass, is to be established in Canada. The present imports of window gLass alone exceeds 25 million square feet annually. There are im- mense deposits of limestone and silica in Ontario, and it is thought that glass can be pro- duced in that province as cheaply as elesewhere. The industry will be established at Welland, owing to its advantages as a distributing point. For the Dominion of Canada exclusive rights of the most improved processes and machines have been, secured by a company, and the industry will have a capacity equal to one-third of the entire consumption of glass in Canada. At Regina, Saskatchewan^ where extensive building operations are in contemplation, con- siderable apprehension is felt concerning the Labour outlook. According to local contractors the city will shortly be faced by the biggest labour famine ever experience hitherto. It is stated that by the middle of April, the city will be in a position to provide work for more than 2,500 men in excess of the present supply, and of that number 1,000 are required to be skilled mechanics and carpenters, the remaining portion being unskilled labourers. In view of the seriousness of the outlook the Board of Trade have been asked to take the matter up, with a view of relieving the situation to some, extent, and it is possible that steps may be taken to approach the Boards in Winnipeg, and also other Western cities for the purpose of taking joint action. The lure of the West is proving too much even for the stay-at-home French Canadian, and a considerable immigration from Quebec to Saskatchewan is taking place at present. Father Berube, a well-known priest, now resident in the western provinces, will conduct this spring one hundred French Canadian families from Montreal, to settle in the Verda district 'f Sas- katchewan. This party it is stated will be followed later in the year by a second number- ing some 500 hundred families from the province of Quebec. Owing to the great rush which is being ex- perienced at the present time in the country north west of Galgary, seven immigration camps have been. established in that district by the Commissioner of Immigration,. Two of the camps are on the main line of the C.P.R. These are at Bassano and Brooks, east of Cal- gary. Other camps are located at different points, about thirty miles apart, so as to afford conveniece to as many people as possible. The arriving settlers are of all classes, including men from Eastern Canada, from the United States, and from Europe.* THRIVING ONTARIO. The present season, bids fair to be one of the most active and prosperous ever experienced in this go-ahead province of the Dominion of Canada. In Toronto, the capital of the pro- vince, hustle is the order of the day. The rush of business there is a safe idea of the flourish- ing condition and forward policy of the entire province. Real estate is selling at daily rising prices. Many who have purchased to sell again are holding back from the market, in view of the practical certainty that values will still be higher in the near future. Throughout Ontario there is such a brisk demand for labour that farmers are actually competing for the services of the newly arriving immigrants. There is also an eager demand for domestic servants, and young women immigrants find no difficulty whatever in obtaining places. Marked activity is being manifested in the mining districts, and it is expected that the yield this year will be considerably increased. It was a wealthy Scottish syndicate that pur- chased the first minilllg claim at the Porcupine District, at a price which they may have thought exhorbitant then, but which certainly indicated a very handsome profit for the vendors now. There are a good many speculators in Toron.to to-day who would jump at the chance of obtaining a similar claim at anything like the same figure.

Evan Roberts and the Millenium. In an account of an interview in the South Wales Daily News" regarding Mr. Evan Roberts's forthcoming revivalist campaign, the Rev. D. Wynne Evans, of Llandrindod, says Mr. Roberts during his retirement has been learning great and important lessons, and lead- ing a strenuous life of prayer and intercession. Evan Roberts believes that the failure of the Christian Church, and of Christians in general, is largely due to their failure to realise the activity and subtlety of the powers of darkness, and the consequent failure to appreciate and appropriate the Divine provision for meeting and overcoming such. He thinks that the lost art,' or science of real prayer and intercession, is about to be recovered, and apostolic spiritual power restored on a large and universal scale. He feels certain that the millennium is at hand, and that the mighty preparatory changes are already upon us." Everything turns up if one only has a little

patience. A Cardiganshire doctor had his gate wrenched off its hinges some years ago by some ne'er-do-well fellow. The gate has now been disgorged by the River Teify, together with a silver watch—the latter, perhaps, by way of i terest on the loan. So there's a good deal in Mr. Asquith's advice Wait and see."
