TEACHERS' SALARIES. To the Editor Sir,—When I Wintered into this con- troversy, I can assure you it was not in the hope of converting the Correspondent of the Llandudno Church Schools to my views, nor of inducing him to regard the matter from the educational standpoint. I thought the public were entitled to know why the Education Committee could not pay full' salaries to unqualified teachers, and I am under considerable obligation to you for publishing my letters in your columns. For the rest, we will allow my reverend frend to make his exit arm in arm with William Pitt, and your readers, without exercising1 much imagination, wlli appre- ciate the combination. Yours faithfully, RALPH, FISHER.

AN APPEAL. WORK FOR THE UNEMPLOYED. To the Editor. Dear Sir,-I shall feel much obliged if you will permit me, through the medium of your paper, to appeal to owners and occupiers of property in Llandudno to take early steps to put in hand such works of repair and renovation to their premises as they may intend to carry out before next summer. The time between now and Christmas affords a good opportunity for the satis- factory execution of works of painting, paperhanging and generail, repairs, and if taken advantage of in the manner sug- gested would assist the Local Authority in their efforts to find work for the unem- ployed. I am, sir, Your obedient servant, ERNEiST E. BONE, Chairman of the Council. Town Hall, Llandudno, 31st October, 1910.

LLANDUDNO BAKER'S FAILURE. At the Bangor Bankruptcy Court on Thursday Thomas Meredith, baker and grocer, Artro Villa, Trinity Street, Llan- dudno, was publicly examined. He re- turned his gross liabilities as £ 627 16s. 4d., the deficiency being, £:159 Is. 7d. He ascribed his insolvency to "bad debts, giv- ingi credit, loss on goods/' The 'Official Receiver reported that the debtor, who was 53 years of age, had car- ried on business at the New Bakery for thirteen years and before that for about six years at Bodafon Road at Llandudno. He stated that he had no capital when he started in business, but £ 10 borrowed from an uncle, and since repaid, and 215 g:)t from his wife, still said to be due. The debtor was the owner of the lease- hold bakehouse, which he purchased in 1901 for £ 490 and mortgaged then for £ 450. The sum now due on the mortgage was scheduled, at £:495 9s. 10d., the value of the property being estimated at JE400, leaving £ 95 9s. 10d. unsecured. There was no stock in the shop at the date of the receiving order. The wife had been tenant of Artro Villa for nine months, and the debtor before that time. The wife claimed all the furniture and effects there on the ground that she bought them from her own savings and earnings, the earn- ings being for lodging-house keeping. The debtor had kept no cashbook or pro- per books, and admitted knowledge of in- solvency twelve months ago or a little more. Questioned by Mr Tobicas, the debtor said that his wife made R,104 out of the house last year, compared with 297 for the previous year. The Assistant Official Receiver: How much a week did you allow your wife 7- Nothing in money. You are unique. You ought to be set on al pinnacle by yourself. On the application of Mr Tobias, who remarked that the case was a most extra- ordinary one, the examination was closed.

Tragedy on the Great Orme. NURSEMAID'S TERRIBLE DEATH. At noon to-day (Friday) a terrible tragedy occurred on the Great Orme, re- sulting in the death of nursemaid, named Annie Plant, and serious injury to the four-year old daughter of Dr. Malland. The Bowers, Altrincham, whose wife is a sister of Mrs Wills, Glasfryn, Abbey Road, and was on a vsit there with her two little girls. Just before noon the nurse and two children were strolling on the high cliff just beyond the Happy Valley ToMgate. There does not appear to be any actual eye-witness of what preceded the fall, but a boatman saw the nurse and child fall from the rocks above, a distance of about 150 feet to the Marine Drive. It is sur- mised that the child slipped and that the nurse tried to save her, falling over the cliff herself in the attempt. The child was in the nurse's arms when picked up on the down the cliff together. It is surmised that the child slipped and that the nurse tried to save her, falling over the cliff herself in the attempt. The child was in the nurse's arms when picked up on the Marine Drive. The nurse was quite dead. Her skull was terribly fractured, and death must have been instantaneous. The little girl had also been seriously in- jured about the head. She was first taken to the residence of Dr. Nicol and then to Glasfryn. It is expected that she will recover. An elder girl, aged 8 years, was also in charge of the nurse, but fortunately remained safely at the top of the Orme. The body of the Nurse, who was about thirty years of age, was conveyed to the Mortuary, and an inquest will be held on Saturday.

GARDEN THEFTS AT GLODDAETH. EX-SOLDIEIR SMARTLY SENTENCED. At. a Special Police Court on Friday morning, Henry Williams, Llysfaen View, Penrhynside, was charged before Dr. Dal- -ton and Alderman Robt, Roberts with stealing a, quantity of carrots, the pro- perty of the, Mostyn family, from Glod- daeth Old Gardens. Inspector Owen, said that complaints having been made of thefts from the gardens a, watch was set, with the result that the accused was caught in the act that morning. The thefts had been going on twice a week for nearly a year. Richard Yates, head gardener at Glod- daeth, said that in consequent of the thefts that had been going 011 he with two police officers watched the garden on Thursday nglht, As the clock a.t Conway struck half-past five Friday morning he saw a man enter, but could not say who it was. Later he saw accused in the custody of the police officers. The bag' of carrots produced was in his possession at the time and the carrots had just been pulled out of the ground. He also had some paper bags in his possession, and had pro- bably been disturbed before he had finish- ed. Accused had worked at the gardens last winter, having been taken on when he was not required out of charity by Lady Augusta Mostyn. He worked well at first, but afterwards got rather slack. He knew [ the ins and outs of the place. Accused had no questions to ask, but stated that he was suffering from a strain- ed heart and could not work. P.C. Williams, Penrhynside,, said that he was on duty at the gardens with P.C. Lewis on Thursday night, having been in- structed to keep a watch on account of a series of robberies. At half-past five he saw. accused in the gardens pulling up carrots, and charged him with stealing them. Accused replied, "I have got nothing to say only I must get money to pay my rent and get something to eat." In reply to the bench as to the habits of the accused, the officer said that Wil- liams was always at home, and complain- ed of his heart as his reason for not working. His wife sold watercress in Llandudno. In reply to Inspector Owen, the Chair- man said there was no need for P.C. Lewis to be called to corroborate. Accused decided to be dealt with sum- marily, and said he had been ill in the hospital and attended by Dr. Nicol and Dr. Davies, who had said that he should only do light outdoor work. The Chairman What is your trade. Accused I do odd jobs in hotels and restaurants. I have no standing trade. Inspector Owen Have you been in the navy. Accused: I was in it for ten years and five months, and then invalided out. I have got two medals. The Humane Society medal for saving life off the West Coast of Africa, and the Ashantee War medal. After a lengthy deliberation, the Chair- man passed a sentence of two months hard labour, and informed accused that the prison doctor would examine the state of his heart.

While walking along the street at Crilccieth on Wednesday afternoon Mrs Mary Charlotte Hopkinson, residing at Brynbella, Criccieth, fell into the arms of her companion and died. Mrs Hopkinson, who was 78 years of age, was the widow of a well-known musician and a daughter of the late Mr Wyatt, at one time estate agent to Lord Penrhvn.

THE MIKADO. AMATEJURíS' PE[R[FÜ[RiMANCEiAT THE GRAND THEATRE, For the third year in succession, Miss Lena Thomas and friends, of Colwyn Bay, have presented at the Grand Theatre one of Sullivan's operas, the proceeds as formally being devoted to a local charity. At this last production on Thursday last the services of Mr E. Thornley-Dodge had again been secured as actor-manager, and Mr H, Lyell-Taylor as musical director. Needless to say, both appointments left nothing to be desired, the orchestra as a matter of fact being quite the- best we have heard, at any amateur performance, for some time past. The staging, scenery and costumes were all excellent. The choruses were, if some- what weak at times, well rendered and tuneful throughout. The quartettes, trios, and duetts had been icarefully rehearsed, and were most deservedly encored. A most pronounced success of the pro- duction was Mr A. E. Bird's "Pooh-Bah." It is the first time we have seen him in comic opera, at Llandudno, and we con- gratulate Miss Lena Thomas on having secured such a clever actor to support her company. Mr Wm. Hughes' "Nanki-Poo" struck us as being somewhat tired in his renditions, due no doubt to the fact it was the third successive nights performance of a very exacting role. A light tenor, the efforts to be distnctly heard were evi- dently telling their tale, all the same he acted smartly and entered into the role of a lover with an enthusiasm that thorough- ly delighted the house. Mr G. C. Skelsey, "The Mikado," pos- sesses an excellent voice for the part. His solos were well sung, but he was some- what hurried in his dialogue. We feel confident he is capable of doing greater n justice to this, or any other part that may be entrusted to him. Mr W. O. Roberts as "Pish-Tush" look- ed the part and sang most acceptably. Like Nanki-Poo he is evidently a "J ap," who has long lifved in Wales. Miss May Thomas, "Yum-Yum," who was well supported by Miss Elsie Crowther and Miss Louie Clark in the respective roles, "Pitti-Sing" and "Peep p- Bo," was part perfect, and came through a very exacting part with distinction. Miss Lena Thomas's "Katisha" was another success in a thankless part. The duett with Ko-Ko was one. of the hits of the evening, and no little of the applause at the finale, was apportioned to Miss Lena Thomas in recognition of the great aid to charity, her productions are be- stowing; in Llandudno and Colwyn Bay. Mr Thornely-Dodge as "Ko-Ko" intro- duced no end of local touches into his part, and was throughout polished in his humour. Eincores were showered upon him, and he worked indefatigably to secure what is admittedly the best all round production our Oolwyn Bay friends have given us. At the fall of the curtain the leads were called before the curtain. Mr Thornley- Dodge, who handed on Miss Lena Thomas, waiited for the applause to sub- side, and said "Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Miss Lena Thomas, I thank you most heartily for the warmth of your reception this evening. We wish the Llan- dudno Amateur Operatic Society every possible success in their forthcoming- pro- duction of the "Pirates of Penzance," and personally I shall be most pleased to give them every possible assistance that lies in my power, and further I intend to break through my usual rule, of not attending amateur operatic productions, and shall be present." Mr Thornlev Dodge's remarks were loudly applauded. We append the full caste of the opera The Mikado of Japan, Mr G. C.

The new "pillar-box" costume will be useful for the woman who wants to catch the male. "Yes," said the determined man. "when that waiter resented the smallness of my tip I took the! case to the proprietor of the restaurant," And what did the pro- prietor do 1" "He gave the waiter some money out of his own pocket, and apologised to him for having such a cus- tomer."
