Dewsland Brewster Sessions. Light Business. The annual Brewster Sessions for the Dews- land Division were held in the Court House Mathry, on Friday afternoon, when the Chair- man (Mr Charles Mathias) presided and the other magistrates adjudicating were Dr Williams (St David's) and Messrs T B Rees, J Watts Williams, and G D Harries. Owing to the severance of Goodwick and other localities from the division, there was a great reduction in the amount of business to be transacted and, to all intents and pur- poses, the proceedings partook of purely formal character. Supt Rees Brinn reported that no licenses had been proceeded against during the twelve months, whilst the number of persons prosecuted for drunkenness had been 44, all of whom had been convicted. In reply to the Clerk he said he did not offer opposition to the renewal of any of the licenses. No opposition was, either, forthcoming on the part of the general public. The Chief Constable (Colonel Somers) re- minded the Bench that at the last adjourned Brewster Sessions, the renewal of the license of the Farmers' Arms, and the Carpenters Arms, St David's, had bean granted upon condition that the building was walled in from the entrance to the garden, aud said that whilst at St David's recently, he had visited the two premises, and had found that the Carpenters' had complied with the order, but that although the Farmers' had erected the wall a door had been placed in it, there- by leaving place just as open for people doing an illicit traffic as before. He had told the landlord that he should bring the matter to the notice of the Bench, but he now under- stood that since Tuesday the doorway had been bricked up. He asked the Bench to grant the renewal of the license conditional upon the doorway not being re-opened. In reply to the Clerk, he said that perman- ent masonry had been put into the doorway. Answering the Chairman, he said broken "glass had been placed on the top of both walls, and, in the case of the Carpenters Arms, the work had been done very well. Constable Morris- said the landlord had told him that they had carried out the orders of the brewers, who had told him that they were to have an entrance there. The Bench acted upon the advice of the Chief Constable. A temporary transfer of the license of the Prospect Hotel, St David's, wasjgranted to Mrs Elizabeth Jones, widow of the late licen- see, whose demise was recorded in our last issue. The annual licensing meeting was then ad- journed to that day four weeks thence.

Railway Allies. South Western and Great Western. Railway alliances, a leading feature of our commercial history to the last few years ,have reached their culmination apparently in the announcement on Friday by the chairman of the London and South Western Company (Sir Charles Scotter),that he expects soon an agree- ment with the Great Western Railway. Speaking at the half yearly meeting of the former corporation, Sir Charles said that he had lately had three or four very friendly interviews with Viscount Churchill, the chairman of the Great Western Railway Company, in connec- tion with their relations with that company. They had discussed the broad outlines upon which an agreement could be made between the two companies in order to do away with wasteful competition and to enable them to work as allies instead of as rivals. (Hear hear). Although, up to the present time, nothing had been definitely decided upon, he would be very much dissapointed—as, indeed would all the directors—if, before the end of the current half- year, a satisfactory agreament had not been concluded (Cheers). He believed that a good time was coming for the railways of the coun- try. As negotiations fwere at that time pro- ceeding it would probably be in the interests of both companies that the subject should not be further discussed at that meeting. He moved the adoption of the report which was seconded by Mr H W Drummona. Mr R W Lawson, speaking on behalf of the Railway Shareholders Association, said he had heard with very great pleasure the Chairman's remarks in regard to the negotiations which were proceeding with the Great Western Rail- Company. The report was adopted. THE TWO COMPANIES. Relations between these companies have not always been so cordial. The Great Western regarded its rival as an interloper when it pro- posed to reach Exeter via Salisbury and Yeovil, and later stretched out to Plymouth, North Devon, and North Cornwall. But an agree- ment in 1884 gave the public increased facili- ties, while another made the railway and stea- mer bookings of both lines to the Channel Islands interchangeable. A few years ago "return halves to many of the principle com- petitive stations were made available by either route. CAUSE OF ALLIANCE. The present negotiations follow the altered conditions brought about by the opening in 1906, of the Castle-Cary and Langport line, which by saving twenty-one miles to Eaeter and Plymouth put the Great Western on an equality with the South Western. The latter then pro- posed a comprehensive "pooling" arrange- ment, when the Great Western declined on any such basis as the traffic of several years preded- ing 1006, without allowing for the future development of the new lines. At last, apparently, an equitable arrange- ment is in sight. We understand that it will mean a liberal throwing open of the respective system to one another. For example, the South Western will have the right to issue tickets from Waterloo and intermediate stations, via Exeter and the Great Western stations between Exeter and Plymouth and the Great Western to issue tickets from Paddington and intermediate sta- tions via Basingstoke, to Portsmouth, South- ampton, jBournmouth, etc., also via Exeter to stations between Lyme, Regis, and Exeter, and again, via Exeter and Taunton to North Devon stations. It is improbable, however, that the agreement will lead to any curtailment of existing passen- ger train services. MORE SOUTHAMPTON LINERS. Sir Charles Scotter also announced that the London and South-Western Company had ordered two turbine steamers for its Southampton service, and that he hoped that the port would be used by a new line. The last reference is understood to be to the new Canadian North- ern Railway's steamers.

WHAT A FISHGUARD MAN HEARD. Many a man owes his success and happi- ness to taking a timely hint. A Fishguard man tells us here how he heard of something which enabled him to overcome a serious difficulty. Mr W Knight, of 6, Vergam Terrace, West- street, Fishguard, says:—" A few months ago I began to get bad pains across my back. When I had these pains I found it almost im- possible to do any bending. The urine was very cloudy, and cast a sandy sediment. My sleep was also disturbed. Reading of Doan's backache kidney pills, and hearing so much about them, I deter- mined to try them. This I did, and they soon put me right. I never feel the backache now, and my kidneys are acting naturally. I can well recommend Doan's backache kidney pills to other sufferers. (Signed) William Knight." Doan's backache kidney pills are two shil- lings and ninepence per box, or six boxes for thirteen shillings and ninepence.

ECHOES. We are also seriously informed that the elimination of passengers from the Water- ford route will facilitate the carriage of dead meat on the Rosslare boats. There appears to be a flaw in the logic somewhere. The Lord Chancellor has offered the bene- fice of Walwyns Castle (Pem) to the Rev W T Watson, vicar of St. Mark, Swansea, who is a Lie. Div. of Lampeter. He was ordain- ed in 1896, and served in curacies at Llwyn- pia and at Swansea, becoming vicar of St. Mark in 1904. Local tradesmen will be gratified to learn that a prominent Liverpool daily paper has inaugurated a policy of publishing gratuitous advertisments, accompanied by glowing puff pars concerning Fishguard commer- cial undertakings! Fishguardians are still agitating them- selves over the problem of Will the consum- er pay ? the orign of the trouble in this in- stance being that the Market House Company has increased the tolls payable by butchers, with the object of recouping itself for the ex- pense forced upon it in connection with the slaughter-house improvements. Ireland can be seen from the Precelly Mountains, and on a clear day from St. David's. Gerald the Welshman on this point says :—" In clear weather the mountains of Ireland are visible from hence, and the pas- sage over the Irish Sea may be performed in one short day, on which account William, the son of William the Bastard, and the second of the Norman Kings in Ireland, who was called Rufus, and who had penetrated far into Wales, on seeing Ireland from these rocks, is reported to have said, 'I will sum- mon hither all the ships of my realm, and with them make a bridge to attack that country.' Which speech, being reported to Murchard, Prince of Leinster, he paused a while and answered, Did the King add to this threat, if God please ?' And being in- formed that he made no mention of God in his speech, rejoicing in such a prognostic, he replied Since that man trusts in human, not Divine, power, I fear not his coming.' At Mathry Petty Sessions on Friday, the new oath was administered by the witness reading it aloud, thus obviating the waste of time occasioned by repeating the words after the clerk. We commend the plan to the consideration of the Fishguard Bench. A Reading telegram announces the death at Great Rollright, Oxfordshire, of Richard Withers, aged 104 years. Mr W J Wallis-Jones, who has been ap- pointed clerk to the visiting committee of the Joint Counties Asylum at Carmarthen, is a cousin to Mr Ivor Bowen, the Revising Bar- rister for this county The County Council is raising no objection to the proposed chemical works at Johnston. If a nuisance arises, the authority concerned is the Rural District Council. It is believed that the erection of the factory will be pro- ceeded with at an early date The Barham v Griffiths case occupied four full days, and the costs can hardly fall short of £ "1000. Mr S Stanton, agent for the Giand Lodge of Wales, Good Templars, has insituted a new lodge at Haverfordwest with 43 members. The Rev J J Davies, M.A., rector of Prendergast, Haverfordwest, the Rev J Hughes Parry, rec- tor of Rudbaxton, and the Rev W Mendus are amongst the members enrolled. Barry District Council spent a large sum on building a fine fire station, but is now selling the engine and letting the station as a manual instruction centre. There are evi- dently more reckless authorities than those of Fishguard. The elections of Guardians, District and Parish Councillors have been fixed for Wed- nesday, March 30th. A novel feature of the Abergavenny Police Court is that some of the magistrates on the Bench sit in court with their hats on-a prac- tice which, although no doubt quite a privi- leged one, has struck many persons as being rather novel. Even a worm will turn, but its retaliatory efforts are apt to provoke a smile. Ireland has already her Great Southern and Western Railway; Great Britain bids fair to emulate her example ere long. Practically every resident of Fishguard and Goodwick is apparently either a past, a pre- sent, or a prospective victim of influenza. Miss Violet Charlesworth, under the as- sumed name of Miss Cameron, was together with her mother arrested at Moffat on Sun- day on a charge of obtaining money under false pretences at Derby, It will be remem- bered that Miss Charlesworth at the time of her disappearance after the motor car ac- cident" in January, 1909, it was stated (though quite incorrectly) that she crossed the channel from Rosslare to Fishguard Mr David Griffiths, of Palle, Eglwyswrw, Pem, who died on October 8th, left estate valued at £432, and probate of his will has been granted to his sister, Miss Margaret Evans of the same address. A South County newspaper described as an unrehearsed incident" the fact that, when Sir George Armstrong said" Good- bye" to Haverfordwest, "a h&arse followed im- mediately afterwards." The author of this appalling pun was, when last seen, wreath- ed in smiles, and apparently quite uncon- scious of the" grave" nature of his offence. In fact he seemed to plume himself upon his misdeeds. Were we not a respectable, family newspaper we should feel tempted to suggest that he deserves to be made to shell" out for bier to prevent his victims from coffin."

GOODWICK BRIDGE. Widening Scheme Rejected. Rebuilding Recommended. At the last meeting of the County Council the Public Works Committee presented the following report of the Surveyor on the pro- posed widening of Goodwick Bridge by the Fishguard Urban Council and Haverford- west Rural District Council:— Sir,—In obedience to your instructions I have carefully considered the two designs prepared for the above work, and beg to re- port as follows The present bridge is a very old and incon- veniently placed one, and only lift wide in the clear of the parapet walls, which are of varying heights of from one to two feet. The approach to the bridge on the Good- wick side forms a sharp turning,while that on the Fishguard side is on the foot of a steep hill, and therefore an element of danger is always present, especially so now, with the great increase of traffic between Goodwick and Fishguard. I may also mention that the roadway leading up to it from Goodwick has been provisionally accepted as a main road. The propositions for widening as shown on the two, would tend greatly to facilitate traffic and to remove the existing dangerous corner, as by the addition a minimum width of about 20 feet between the parapets would be provided. But the materials proposed to be used in the work of the two designs are quite different, and I am, therefore, led to believe that an opinion is asked for as to which may be considered the best for the purpose. No i design shows the widening to be made by means of two roll steel girders of about 22ft. span placed alongside the present bridge with connecting cross girders, and cement concrete filling. Substantial concrete foundations are provided, also wooden piles, thece latter I think may be dispensed with as to all appearances there is absolutely no scour in the stream, and the foundations at this point are presumably of a fair character judging by the state of the old bridge walls. Considering the design as a whole, I am of opinion that it would not be advisable to adopt it for more than one reason, viz., the difficulty imJ.connecting the addition to the present structure, probable unequal depression, and also because about one-third of the iron- work would be exposed to the deteriorating action of the sea air. If adopted, it would be advisable, I think, to add a little to the dimensions of the girders, and the parapet walls made i-ft 6-in. thick and 3-ft 6-in high instead of 12-in thick and 2-ft 6in high. No. 2 Design.— The plan shows the addi- tional width given by extending the arches of the present bridge in masonry, carried on con- crete piers and piles as before mentioned. This would be in my opinion much the better way, provided iron tie rods and washers were pro- vided to tie the old and new portions together. The remarks made when considering the pre- vious design in reference to the piles and .para- pet walls apply to this as well. There is one point I wish to draw attention to when considering the schemes for the widen- ing and improvement of this bridge, and this is, the presence of a crack in one at least of the arches, which may or may not be of vital importance at present, seeing that I have sug- gested iron tie rods to be used. But as the estimated outlay for the proposed work is a big itlm, viz., ^40 for No. i design and £ 210 for extending the arches, I am of op- inion that consideration might be given to an alternative scheme, which I venture to suggest and show on the accompanying sketch plan, for an entirely new bridge to be built on the upper or western side. By so doing, the ap- proaches would be in a better line with the connecting roads, the structure more secure, and full use could be made of the existing bridge during building operation.—I have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant. ARTHUR H THOMAS. Assistant County, Surveyor. The Committee reported that after consider- ing the report, it was of opinion that a new bridge be erected, and had decided to refer the suggestion of a new bridge to the Rural and Urban Councils for consideration.

ST. DAVID'S. Licensing Matters.—Various matters affect- ing local licenses are reported elsewhere in this column. Drunk.—At Mathry Petty Sessions, on Fri- day afternoon, John McGrah, of Llether, St David's, who failed to appear, was sued for having behaved in a disorderly manner whilst drunk on Saturday, the 8th ult. P.C. Morris said that, at seven o'clock in the evening, defendant was 'fighting drunk' in Goat-street, and that he assisted him into James' yard, where he left him. A fine of 2s 6d with costs, or an alternative of seven days' imprisonment with hard labour, was imposed. Coastguard's Promotion. Mr H Hunt, Chief coastguard of St David's Station, has been promoted chief officer for Newquay, Cornwall. Mr F Sercombe, station officer, Boscastle, succeeds him.
