The local stockists for this well-known tyre are Messrs. George Ace, Limited, Warren Street, Tenby. The new unarmoured cruiser Blanche was berthed alongside the Carr Jetty at Pembroke Dock-yard on Saturday afternoon, prepara- tory to the shipment of her boilers and machinery. The unarmoured cruiser Bellona, a sister ship, which is nearing completion and was lying at the jetty previously, is now berthed outside the Blanche. She will be dry docked during the present week. The Pneumatic Tyre majority celebration banquet was held recently at the Hotel Cecil, London, Prince Francis of Teck in the chair. The object was two-fold — to celebrate the twenty-first birthday of the Pneumatic Tyre, and to present Mr Harvey du Cros, chairman of Dunlop Pnenmatic Tyre Company, Limited, with a gold casket subscribed for by motorists throughout the world. Five hundred guests assembled from all parts of the kingdom and Continent, Pembrokeshire being represented by the pioneer of pneumatic tyres in Wales, Mr Geogre Ace, of Tenby. A successful smoking concert was held at the Tenby Liberal Club on Wednesday of last week, when Mr K. W. Hicks occupied the chair, and Mr Walter Davies's quadrille band played the accompaniments. During the interval the Chairman gave an excellent address on current politics, the enthusiasm of the members showing that they were perfectly ready for the coming fight. A billiard competition during the evening was also entertaining and novel. Plenty of artistes were present and some fine renderings of songs were given. A very enjoyable evening came to a close after singing "Land of my Father" and "God Save the King." Mr W. D. Meade King, M.I.C.E., Local Government Board Inspector, held an inquiry at the Council Chamber, Haverfordwest, last Thursday, into an application by the Council j. l nnAAA £- ¿ L i.' i? tu UUlTUW ;1;.GVVV lor lUtJ erection or iourreen workmen's dwellings in Prendergast. It was stated that there were practically no empty houses in the town, and that ten houses to be condemned were close to the site. Six tenders had been received for the new houses, and the lowest provisionally accepted. On the assump- tion that the money could be got at 3-L per cent. 2 the total annual expenditure would be JS152 8s., and with a weekly rent of 4s. 6d. each the total receipts would be £ 163 16s., or an annual profit of jSll 8s. There was no opposition. 0f 9 For the purpose of arranging a presentation to the Hon. Colwyn Philipps, son and heir of Lord St. Davids, Lydstep Haven, whose coming of age will be celebrated on Saturday, December 11th, a representatively-attended meeting of Tenby tradesmen was held in the Council Chamber last Friday evening, when a small committee was appointed to carry the matter through. Mr Edwin Lloyd, ironmonger, who convened the meeting, explained that the credit of the idea of a testimonial from the tradesmen of the town with whom Lord and Lady St. Davids dealt, must be given to Mr W. H. Phillips, of Warren Street, -who was the first to suggest it. A sum of nearly £ 5 was subscribed in the room. There is no question that the gramophone and phonograph play an important part in con- nection with the Christmas festivities, and to obtain the best results from these instruments it is essential that they should be in perfect working order. Mr A. \V. Randall, of "The Motor House," Tenby, is making a speciality just at present in effecting repairs to all kinds of these machines. In order to avoid dis- appointment, clients would do well to have their machines overhauled and adjusted now so as to have them ready for Christmas. Mr Randall has several new gramophone models on view, and he is sole local agent for the renowned Edison Phonograph and Cylinder Records and a real good Edison machine can now be had for the low sum of £ 3 3s. Mr Randall has also recently had delivered a good supply of the latest productions in Disc and Cylinder Records, which include sacred and others suitable for Yuletitfe. The Rev. D. F. Rittenhouse, M.A., B.D., of San Francisco, who has the reputation of being one of America's finest orators, will deliver his popular lecture "In Angel Meadows," in the Royal Gate House Assembly Rooms, Tenby, on Monday, December 13th, when a charge of Is. and 6d. will be made for admission. Mr Rittenhouse, who, by the way, is a relation of Mr J. P. Raynes, St. George Street, Tenby, has during his visit to the town, been in great request as a preacher, and has filled the pulpit of every local Nonconformist place of worship. As one of the Baptist missionaries in California, Mr Rittenhouse has achieved a remarkable success. As an orator, he is the master of an eloquence which must be heard to be appre- ciated, while the subject matter of his various lectures is of the deepest human interest. Since his arrival in Tenby he has created quite a fltrure in Nonconformist circles, and his forthcoming lecture will no doubt draw a full hou.se. His Honour Judge William Stevenson Owen, D.L., J.P., of Ty Gwyn, Abergavenny, Judge of the Cardiff County Court, Chairman of the I Quarter Sessions for Pembrokeshire and Haver- ford west, who died on 20th October last, aged 74, son of the late Mr William Owen, of Withy- bush, Pembrokeshire, left estate of the gross value of £ 19,615 10s. 3d., with net personalty of £ 16,151 14s. 8d., and probate of his will, dated 9th May, 1909, has been granted to his widow, Mrs Mary Ledger Owen, his son Captain William Owen, of Hay Hill, Middlesex, Mr William Price James, of the Lindens, Romilly Cresent, Cardiff, and Mr John Sankey, K.C., of Mitre 2, Court, Temple, London. The testator left £ 500 to his wife, and he left to his daughters Mary Emily Steel, Alice Winnifred Parkin, and Bessie Owen, his interest in a legacy left by the will of his father for the benefit of his sister Mary, and he left the residue of his estate upon trust for his wife for life with remainder as to S5000 to his daughter Mary Emily Steel, -03000 to his daughter Alice Winifred Parkin, but sums advanced to them are to be brought into notchpot, and £ 5000 to his daughter Bessie Owon, and the residue of his estate he left to his son Captain William Owen. J. E. ARNETT begs to invite inspection of his CHRISTMAS SHOW ROOM, which is now open and fully stocked with a choice assortment of elegant and useful articles, at all prices. J. E. ARNETT, THE LIBRARY, TENBY. »♦« A Haverfordwest correspondent says it is understood that a Lancashire firm are in nego- tiation with local land agents for a plot of land on the Johnstone Moors, with a view to the erection of a large chemical manure manu- factory. The Milford fish merchants have signed agreements to supply this Lancashire firm with theiish offal to be used at the factory. A tablet of handsome design has been erected in the Shire Hall, Haverfordwest, in memory of Mr Henry G. Allen, K.C., Paskeston. The inscription is as followsHenry George Allen, of Paskeston, in this county, one of His Majesty's counsel. Born 29th July, 1815. Died 25th November, 1908. He was educated at Rugby School and at Christ Church, Oxford. For many years he was Chairman of the Court of Quarter Sessions and also of the County Council of Pembrokeshire. He was the last member of Parliament for the Pembroke Boroughs, and the first for the United Boroughs of Pembroke and Haverfordwest. During his long life he was faithful to the interests of his native county. In his private benefactions he was generous, and he won the good will and esteem of all men as a conspicuous example of a scholar and a gentleman," The tablet, which has been erected by Messrs. Havard and Son, Haverfordwest, will shortly be publicly un- veiled. The Western Mail for the last couple of weeks has been engaged on the subject of discussing the advisability of forming a Welsh International Golf Team, and has been publish- ing the opinions of prominent golfers on the subject. This week it has taken the views of Mr F. E. L. Mathias Thomas, the well-known Tenby golfer, and says Mr F. E. L. Mathias Thomas, Tenby's plus man, is of the same opinion as Colonel' with regard to the proposed Welsh international golf team. He thinks it would materially heighten the standard of golf throughout Wales, and ho hopes that the suggestion will at once be taken up. Mr Mathias Thomas, it may be remembered, tried to arrange a match between the clubs of North and South Wales in 1903 for the purpose of forming an international team, but it was thought that the proposal was premature, con- sidering the standard of golf in Wales as it then stood. He again suggests one or two trial matches of this sort, and thinks that some more matches of the same kind as the East v. West match of 1907 might be arranged." Preaching at the Albany Chapel, Haverford- west, the other Sunday, the Rev. Owen Jacobs said we were giving only the fag-ends of our time and life to God and the best part was given to our own wordly pleasure. He com- plained of the frightful waste of time in Haver- fordwest, and mentioned how one night last week he made a tour of the town just to find out how the young men were spending their evenings. The first place he came to was a public house, and he could hear from the street that many young men were inside. This was not only a wasteful way of spending one's evenings, but it was full of evil consequences for the future. He next came to a hall where a whist drive and dance were being held. This was a frivolous pastime. In another hall there was roller skating. This pastime he regarded as injurious to bodily health, although they might not find it at the time. The next place he visited was a Literary Society meeting, and this Institution he especially commended to the young people of Haverfordwest. He urged all young men and women to attend these meetings as they were likely to reap from them a great deal of benefit.

On Monday afternoon the usual weekly meet- ing of the Tenby Corporation Committees were held, when a letter was read from Mr Chatter- ton, engineer, London, stating that he would be willing for a fee of thirty guineas to inspect the plans for the proposed extension of the Culvert and report on same to the Council.

After some discussion it was decided that the Council should publish an official guide themselves, and that Mr R. L. C. Morrison and Mr E. H. Leach be asked to quote their terms for producing a suitable guide in collaboration.—An account for £100 from Messrs. Wills, Limited, advertising agents, London, was produced also a letter call- ing attention that this account was due for advertising on June 30th last, and asking for a cheque.-It was agreed to pay S100 on account of moneys due to Messrs. Wills without pre- judice to the Council's rights to an allowance for breach of contract—Councillor Mason's ap- plication for information as to why £200 a year was being paid to a Borough Treasurer who had left the town, was refused.
