FOOTBALL. LLANDUDNO AMATEURS v. CARNARVON UNITED. (North Wales League). By Veteran. Teams representing these Clubs met on the Council Field in the North Wales Coast Lea,gue Competition. The same players had met the previous Saturday, when the Carnarvon Club, won by one goal to nil rather luckily. The conditions were entirely against a good exposition of the, game, the ground being heavy and rain falling throughout the first half. The home club should have won on the general run of the play, but their luck in front, of goal was none of the best, and neither side scoring the game ended in a draw. The Amateurs, I understand, are los- ing the service of J. H. Jones, who has been a tower of strength at full back. I am informed by a member of the Com- mittee that, hel intends leaving Llandudno for Oswestry. J. EL Williams will also be lost to the Club for the remainder of the season, his leg having failed to stand the strain of the last, two matches. The team against Pwllheli on Saturday will there- fore be of the "scratch" order, and its constitution can not be definitely stated.

DUNCAN CUP FINAL. CORINTHIANS V. BANGOR, FINALI TIE! AT LLANDUDNO. There was a very good! crowd on the Council Field on Wednesday, when the Corinthians and BanglOr met in the final for the Duncan Cup. Bangor, who won the cup last year2 were the favourites be- fore the game started, but a few stunch supporters were confident that the home- sters would pull through. Mr Referee Slater, punctual to time, lined up the men, the following being the teams — Corinthians.—Soden (goal), W. Wynne and F. WL Jones (backs), A. J. Davis, W. Lunt, and Hargreaves (half-backs), E. Francis, D. Brookes, Barker, Llew Davies and J. Parry (forwards). Bangor.—T. Owen (goal), A. Stanley and R. Thomas (backs), B. Parkinson, G. O. Roberts and Ri. Jones (half-backs), T. Griffiths, RI. Ei. Jones, D. Walford, J. Jones and A. Williams (forwards). 'The Corinthians started against a stiff but fairly steady breeze,, and were, the first, to show prominence, Barker leading an attack on the Bangor goal which he subseiqently nullified by shooting over the -cross-bar with an absolutely open goal. Bangor then began to get going on the left., but Wynne checked their progress, and they were kept, in their own quarters until a foul against Del Brookes gave them a foothold in the home, territory, A. J. Davis ,c,oming to the rescue with some good tackling. Fred Jones nearly brought about the downfall of the Corinthians' goal through fouling J. Jones near the corner flag1, but offside against Bangor brought relief. A minute or two later J. Parry got a nasty kick below the knee and limped badly for the remainder of the game. Indeed it was not until the last twenty minutes of the game that he seem- ed to have thoroughly recovered. Soden was the first custodian to be tested, J. Jones sending in a curler from the right. wing which was cleverly caught and cleared. At the other end Barker tested Owen with a hot shot from close quarters, and a quick change of scene saw Soden again called upon to clear a fast ground shot from the left. Play was most interesting at this stage with the home forwards playing a neat passing game which eventually led to the ball coming out to Francis, who after rounding the Bangor defence, scored with a shot which gave Owen little chance of saving. This goal came after about ten minutes' play, and gave the homesters the confidence their efforts lacked previously.. After the re-start the visitors attacked for a few minutes, but Wynne and Fred Jones were safe, the experience of the latter making up for his loss of pace. The halves were also, playing a good game, especially Lunt in the centre, and a hot attack on the visitors' goal culminated in a corner, which was beautifully placed by Brookes, and Owen was called upon to fist out from the midst of a ruck of players. A free kick brought relief, but, not for many moment, the attack being resumed by Brookes and Francis, who appeared to have, a thorough understanding with each other, and being well fed by A. J. Davis kept pegging away at the Bangor goal. One of these movement resulted in a second goal to the Corinthians. Davis got the better of the Bangor left wing, took the ball down the field, transferred it at the right moment to Del Brookes, who neatly tricked the backs and placed the ball in the net well out of the reach of the custodian. Bangor played up better after his le- verse, and Soclen was twice called upon to save his charge, but the attack died away, and then Llew Davies began to show a little of his real form. Parry was not much better than a, passenger, but Barker gave considerable aid in some, movements which looked promising! from the Corin- thians' point of view. As half-time approached the homesters made some good attempts to increase their lead, Llew Davies testing Owen with a hot drive which was well saved, and Barker just missing the uprights with a fast, screw shot. At, the interval the score was j Corinthians 2 Bangor 0 The ffame was resumed after coffee had been dispensed, and the Corinthians start- ing with great dash, Del Brookes was put into possession of the ball and scored the third goal within a minute. After some quiet play Llew Davies scored the fourth after some good work, in which the whole, front lirie took part. Bangor was a, beaten team after this, but pluckily stuck to their work, and were rewarded with a, goal from a, penalty kick, to which the Corinthians replied by adding another to their total from the foot of Llew Davies, and the cessation of hostilities was sounded short- ly after, with the, Corinthians deservedly winners by five goals to one. COMMENTS. The winners were a well-balanced team, without being brilliant. Soden in goal was very safe, although on two occasions he kicked when the safest policy would perhaps have been to catch the ball. Fred Jones and Wynne were not very severely tested. Of the two Wynne naturally was the more dashing player. The old Swift, however, was not often at, fault, and his placing of the ball was almost as good as ever. Two or three, more goals might easily have been secured from his placing of free kicks, but the, opportunities were lost. W. Lunt was the best of the halves, but seemed to tire before the end of the game. A. J. Davis and Hargreaves were, generally capable, of holding their own with a bit in hand. Occasionally there was a lack of understanding between the trio, but they generally managed to retrieve the blunders. Of the forwards the right, wing was the more effective until the second half was well advanced, when Davies and Parry took up the running most effectively^ the bttter showing glimpses of his old form, and putting in many a, capital run and centre. The visitors were best served by their backs and goalkeeper, the, great weakness of the team being the half-back line. Had they been better backed up the forwards no doubt have given a better account of themselves. < After the match the cup and medals was presented to1 the, winiters by Mr Ker- ridge, Llandudno Junction.

CHARGE, OF ASSAULT BY BAILIFFS DIFFEiRENT VEIRSIONS OF A SER- VICE! INCIDENT. At the Bangor Police Court on Tues- day, before Mr Wi. Pughe and other magistrates, Richard Owen Roberts, a, cashier and clerk, in the service of a Liverpool firm at. their Bangor branch, charged Hugh Williams, a bailiff of the Bangor County Court, with assault and battery. Mr S. Ri. Dew, who appeared for the complainant, said the incidents which led to the present, charge occurred on the 5ith March. The Liverpool firm's establish- ment was entered from the street by a door between two windows. The residential portion of the premises, in which lived Mr Oldroyd, the local agent, was entered by a separate door at the side of the shop. On the date in question an execution was issued from the Bangor County Court against the goods of Mr Oldroyd, which were supposed to be contained in the resi- dential portion of the premises. This warrant was delivered to a bailiff of the name of Brookes. On the arrival of the bailiffs Brookes rang the side-door bell and was admitted bv the maid. Williams entered the shop through the public en- trance. A door communicated between the shop and the, residential parts. Williams, saying he was going into the house, ad- vanced to the door. The complainant put his back against it and told the defen- dant that no one was allowed to go into the house through the shop. The de- fendant caught complainant by the throat with one hand, and struck him on the mouth with the other, and tried to force his way into the house.. Hearing the noise Brookes, the other bailiff, who had got into the house by the side door, push- ed the inner door open. On Brookes's arrival the defendant again got hold of the complainant by the throat and flourished a stick over his head, and then let him go. Replying to Mr James Porter, who de- fendedi the complainant said he did not know tihat the defendant was present in his capacity as a bailiff. Although he was paid by the Liverpool firm he was a servant of Mr Oldroyd. Later on the com- plainant heard a crash, and going in he saw Mr Oldroyd on the floor and the two bailiffs on the top of him. Further evidence was given by Mary Meade, maid, and Mr Oldroyd in support of Mr Dew's opening. Mr Oldroyd, replying to Mr Porter, said he was the tenant of the place, and sub-let to the Liverpool firm. The defendant gave evidence, and ab- solutely denied the complainant's version of the incidents. He never struck the de- fendant at all. He simply pushed him away. After hearing other evidence, the Bench dismissed the case. Mr Dew opened a second charge against Hugh Williams, preferred by Mr Old- royd. The Bench, after a-prolonged hear- ing, stoped the case, and dismissed it, ob- serving that there was a good deal of dis- crepancy in the evidence on both sides.

AFTER, FO UR YEARS. John Boswell. a gipsy, was summoned at Carnarvon on Saturday for assaults which he was alleged to have committed four years ago. in the neighbourhood of the town on a farmer named H. O. Hughes, and a constable not now in the force. The accused positively denied both assaults, and called witnesses in support. He was found guilty, and fined 10s. and costs in each case.

Owing to the success of the first whist drive a,t the Dorothy Cafe, Mr J-. Payne has- decided to hold another on Wednes- day next, March 10th. Tickets, Is. 6d. (inclusive) may be obtained from him.

RHYL COUNCIL. THE; PROPOSED NEW MARINE LAKE. The monthly meeting of Rhyl Council was held on Monday. It was reported by Mr Goodall, the sur- veyor, that last month he caused 6,120 loads of sand to be removed from the pro- menade, parade roads, and foreshore, and that he had fixed screens to check a further drift. Almost the whole of the drift sand had now been removed. The Committee directed the Surveyor to in- quire whether the London and North- Western Railway Company or Messrs Wright, of Birmingham, or both, would agree to cart, the sand away for their own purposes at, their own cost. Mr William Williams, of Rhyl, wrote offering a perpetual licence of his new patent sand screen for 23G after trial. It was decided to test the screen next autumn. A LLAKE: ON THE, SEA FRONT'. The Road Committee's report contained the following min u te "M,r Doughty, solicitor, and Mr Smith, architect, ap- peared before the Committee to inquire whether the Council would be prepared to entertain a proposal to construct a marine lake opposite the Queen's Hotel, to be of such dimensions and in such a position as the Council may think desirable. The Committee, after discussion, very much favoured the idea, and they recommended that the Council promise their considera- tion of a, well-defined scheme over an area somewhere between High-street and Queen-street, and to support it so far as it lies within their power, and subject to a satisfactory agreement with the pro- moters." This report came up for confirmation, and Mr Rhydwen Jones suggested that they should not. tie themselves to Mr Doughty. A. respected townsman, Mr Eilwy Williams, had projected such a scheme for years, and before the Council took any steps they should consult Mr Ehvy Williams. They should preserve their sea front and not allow any more of it to get into private hands. ,v Mr H. A. Tilby said he was getting shy of approving schemes in the abstract-- they were used against them afterwards. —(Hear, hear.) They ought to go no further than say they promised their con- sideration of a well-designed scheme over an area between High-steert and Queen- streetz and such a scheme if prepared should be submitted to a- committee of the whole Council.—(Hear, hear.) He moved an amendment to that effect. Mr T. D. Jones seconded. Mr J. Frimston said that his recollec- tion of what occurred, at the meeting was that they never promised to give their support. That was never contemplated at all.-(Hear, hear.) The idea of Mr Doughty was to lay out an area of the beach as a lake for boating, etc. Mr J. H. Ellis said that nothing could be done without the consent of the Board of Trade and the Office of Woods and Forests. After further discussion Mr Tilby's amendment was carried. CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH. The report of the Medical Officer of Health (Dr. Eyton Lloyd) for 1908 show- ed that the, birth-rate per 1,000 of the population was 20.10, against 21.46 in 1907. The death-rate of the resident population was 11.22 per 1,000, the lowest recorded during the last ten years. Amongst visitors, in public institutions and in hospital, the deaths were fewer than the average. The general health of the district had been very satisfactory during the year. Mr J. W. Jones said that there was now practically a clean ball of health in the town, at all events, a high state of efficiency prevailedi.-(Hear, hear.) ELECTRICITY WORKS LOSS. Mr A. Rhydwen Jones said the Council were losing at the rate of £ 1,200 a year on the electricity works. A neighbouring authority was offered electricity in bulk at a penny and an eighth. At, anything like that price it would pay the Council to scrap the- machinery at their works, wheire they were turning it, out at 2-fd. a '4 unit, and he asked the C-haarman of the Electricity Committee if he would inquire whether current, at that price could be ob- tained for Rhyl. Mr Frimston, chairman of the Com- mittee, said that, the Council opposed the North Wales Power Companies Bill and succeeded in getting therir district exclud- ed from the scope of the bill. and it would be folly to give their monopoly away in the way of Mr Rhydwen Jones proposed.

LONDON WELSHMEN AT LAW. CLAIMS AGAINST MILK SELLERS, Judge W. Evans was occupied for several hours at the Aberystwyth County Court in hearing cases in which the parties were mostly members of the London Welsh community. In one case Kate- Davies, now living at Llanrhystyd, near Aberys- twyth, claimed £ 24, two years' wages, from her aunt, Jane Thomas, a widow, formerly living- at Brady-street, White- chapel, and Canonbury-street, London. The defendant alleged that she dispensed with the plaintiff's services on leaving Brady-street. Her step-son then took up a milk business in Canonbury-street, and the plaintiff was allowed to go there be- cause she had no home to go to. John Morgan, a London milkman, gave evidence for the plaintiff, and his Honour asked him if he had been to Americ.a The Witness No, sir. His Honour: Ithought you had by your ace ent.—(Laughter.) Mr Sampson (the plaintiff's solicitor) That is the London Welsh accent, (Laughter.) His Honour, at another stage, asked if all the milk sellers in London were Welsh people,. The Witness I think so. Mr Sampson remarked that at any rate they were- the only sellers of milk worth buying from. His Honour having added the step-son as a co-defendant, gave judgment for the plaintiff for £:21 and costs. In another case Benjamin Griffiths, a dairyman, of Millwood-street, Netting Hill, London, was sued by William Evans, grocer, Cnwch Cbch, near Aberystwyth, for J680 19s. 2d. in respect of goods sup- plied. The plaintiff's case was that the goods were supplied to the defendant's father-in-law, and that the defendant had undertaken to become responsible for all credit given. The defendant denied liability, and said he was not aware that the goods had been supplied to his father-in-law, nor had he instructed the plaintiff to supply them. Judgment was given for the plaintiff for JE73 and costs.

FLINTSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL. CRITICISM OF EXPENDITURE. At Friday's meeting of the Holywell Board of Guardians a letter was read from the Clerk of the Flintshire County Council in reply to a letter from the Clerk of the Board of Guardians, stating that the Council were giving the finances of the county their most careful attention, and every effort was made to keep the rates as low as possible consistent with efficiency and the extra heavy traffic on the roads and the large amount of work they were being continually called upon to execute. Mr T. Humphreys It sounds very nice, but theá actions are very different. Mr II. Powell: I am pleased to see they are awaking to a sense of their duty. Mr Harrison (Flint) They all want removing. We, want fresh blood on the County Council. Mr Humphreys, If the rates are going up. as they do it is high time to remove them. The Chairman (Mr J. Prince) Come now; I really thing we had better not go on any further. As a public authority, we must not be too hard upon another authority. They axe going to blot us out altogether soon, so we had better not quar- rel -——————.————.

NOT WORTH 15s. A WEEK. At Fiiday's meeting of the Holywell (Rural) District Council., Mr J. Petrie referred to the low wages paid to some of the workmen. He said he should like their men to get a living wage, which he did not think they paid.—Mr Hum- phreys I really think the: wages we pay are very small. We can only expect cripples or old men to work for it.—The Holywell Surveyor said some of the young men were not worth fifteen shillings a week, and there- were some working at Bagillt whom he would not employ if he Z7, had his way.—Mr H. Powell (Bagillt) I am sorry to tear the Surveyor make that reflection upon any men. I don't like to hear it.—It was decided that the sur- veyors should furnish to the Council re- turns as to the men employed, their ages, and the wage-s paid to them.

INFLUENZA COLDS, CHILLS, AND LUNG WEAKNESS. What is the safest Cure?
