Lady Augusta Mostyn has most generously offered to build a church at Deganwy, near Llandudno, in memory of her father and mother, and as a Jubilee Memorial. She is also giving £. 000 towards the chancel of the Duke of Clarence Memorial Church. At a meeting of the Queen's Ferry Bridge Committee, held at Mold on Wednesday, it was decided that the bridge should be opened to the public free of toll for the Easter holidays. Effoits are being made to expedite the formal opening of the structure, and Mr Gladstone will be asked to perform the ceremony. Mr Thomas Gee, of Denbigh, was on Monday presented on behalf of his admirers in all parts of the Principality with a cheque for jQi,ooo and an illuminated address in recognition of his public services. At the same time Mrs Gee was presented with a silver salad bowl as a memento of the occasion. Speeches laudatory of Mr Gee were made by Messrs J. H. Roberts, M.P., Samuel Smith, M.P., J. Herbert Lewis, M.P., D. Lloyd George, M.P., T. E. Ellis, M.P., and others. Mr Samuel Smith, M.P., addressing his constituents at Mold on Wednesday week, described the education bill as simply a gigantic dole of 616,000 a year to denom- inational schools to hold in check the school board system, which the Government hated and said its main object was to strengthen the hold of the National Church on the rising generation in the rural parishes, in 8,000 of which there was no school except an Anglican one. The paltry grant of 110,000 to the poor board schools was a striking proof of the partiality of the Govern- ment for the denominational system.

-0 HOLYWELL. THE BOBOUGH MEMBEB,—Mr J. Herbert Lewis, M.P. for the Flint Boroughs, was the subject of a portrait and sketch in the Golden Penny of last week. "HAVEN BAY."—This is the title of a new and highly interesting service of soag, which will be rendered by the Holywell United Temperance Choir and illustrated with new slides with the limelight lantern, at the Assembly Hall on Monday next, commencing at 8 o'clock. [Advt. EASTER MONDAY—This holiday was, as usual, generally observed in Holywell. Many hundreds of people assembled in the town and enjoyed the usual attractions of the show-field in Halkyn-street. The weather was showery, and in the evening rain fell heavily. WELSH CONGREGATIONAL CHUBCH.—The annual preaching meetings commenced in Cbapel-street Chapel on Thursday evening, and continued on Good Friday, the Special preachers being the Rev. T. Stephen, B.A., Wellingboro R. Owen, Glandwr, and J. Foulkes, Aberamon. There were orowded congregations at each service. On Good Friday afternoon an English sermon was preached by the Rev. T. Stephen. PEN'DREF CRA.PEL,- The usual Easter preaohing meetings were held on Sunday and Monday at this historic Wesleyan chapel, when crowds gathered -together to hear sermons preached by the Revs. Hugh Jones (Chairman of the North Wales District), Isaiah Jones, Bradford, and Hugh Hughes, Carnarvon. On Sunday afternoon an English sermon was preached by the Rev. Isaiah Jones. OOUNTY COUNCIL ELECTION.—A number of the 0 leading electors in the Holywell Electoral Division have approached Mr Urias Bromley with a view to induoing him to stand for the vacancy on the Flint- shire County Council caused by the death of the lute Mr Joseph Garner, and we understand that Mr Bromley has decided to accede to their wishes. Hia election address will* appear in our oolumns in due course. GOOD FBIDAY AT THE PABISH CHuRcH. -On Good Friday divine service as appointed for the day was held in the Parish Church, in the morning in English and in Welsh in the evening. In the after- noon there was a performance of Sir John Stainer's oratorio The Crucifixion," by the members of the Church Choral Society, under the conduotorship of Mr E. Robinson, Chester, Mr J. Henry Hope, B.A., presiding at the organ. The soloists were Mr Fred Ashby (tenor) and Mr J. Peters Jones (bass), both of Chester. The work was very well performed. This Good Friday cervioe has become quite estab- lished and is looked forward to with much interest. Stainer's meditation on the Crucifixion has been performed for several consecutive years, yet the appreciation of the beautiful pieoe of music continues and the attendance on Good Friday at the Church was sufficient qualification. Possibly next year will see the introduction of other music in keeping with the solemn occasion. EASTER-DAY AT THE CRujacu.-The fervioes at the Parish Church on Easter-day were of a bright and hearty character. Floral decorations were exceptionally pretty. On the Communion Tftble was a large cross of white flowers with side vases, and a bed of white tulipa and white lilao. kindly sent by Mrs Mather, London. Leading to the Communion rails from the chancel wall was a handsome avenue of arum lilies in full bloom. A beautiful cross of white flowers graced the pulpit, and the chancel wall was one mass of lovely flowers, plants and graceful ferus, these flowers being sent by Mrs Johnson Jones, Pistill. After morning service Holy Communion was administered to a large number of the congregation. The evening service was well attended, and the choir sang the Easter anthem .1 We declare unto you glad tidings" (J. Maunder), Mr J. Henry Hope, B,A., organist. Appropriate Eastertide hymns were sung at the eervices. The Rev. R. O. Williams, vicar, preached at the morning servioe, and the Rev. Joseph Davies in the evening. The offertoriei of the day were in aid of the Holywell District Ladies Visiting Society. Tile EASTER VESTRY.-On Eaeter Monday the annual Vestry was held at St. Winefred's Hall, when the Vicar, (the Rev. R. O. Williams) presided over a gcod attendance of parishioners. The Vicar intimated that it was with much regret that he had to announee the retirement of Mr Pyers Edwards as his warden, after several years good service, He had pleasure in nominating Mr S. L. Revis (North and South Wales Bank) as his successor. Mr H. A. Cope proposed a hearty vote of thanks to the Churchwardens (Mr Edwards and Mr Williamson) for their past services. He believed that it was the general opinion that they had oarried out their duties as Churohwardens to the satisfaction of everyone. He had much pleasure in proposing the re-appoint* ment of Mr R. E. Williamson as parish warden. Mr J. Carman in seconding the proposition endorsed the remarks made. Tho Vicar nominated Mr J. T. Eachus as sidesman on his behalf in succession to Mr S. L. Revis, and Mr Pyers Edwards proposed, and Dr. Jas. Williams seconded, the re-appointment of Mr J. Carman on behalf of the congregation. Mr Pyers Edwards and Mr Williamson thanked the Vestry for their kind appreciation of the services rendered. The charities accounts were submitted by Mr R. E. Williamson, the total balance in favour being L48 17s 4d the principal item being S43 58 31 in respect of the Ellis Parry (bread) charity. l'he Vicar also submitted the accounts of the charities he held for distribution. The aooounts of the obaritics were duly approved of and adopted.
SAD BURNING FATALITY TO A…
SAD BURNING FATALITY TO A CHILD. On Saturday morning an inquest was held at the Town Buildings, by Mr F. Llewellyn Jones, deputy coroner for the county, on the body of a child named Mary Ellen Jones, aged 7 ytars, who died on Thursday night from the effects of burns sustained the same morning. Mr E. Foulkoa was forem.an of the Jury. The following evidence was taken :— Lydia Jones, aged 9 years, sister of the deceased, said on Thursday morning, her mother had gone out to work. Her sister had gone into the yard for water and she was by the door, when her sister (the deceased) came down and she next saw her on fire standing by the fire-place. Mrs Susannah Roberts, a next door neighbour, and aunt of the deceased, said just before hall-past eleven, she h lr s i- -q,,tnd going out saw Rtchard Dickinson, bringing tLu c' r 1 the arm out of the house. Her clothing was in ilames and she ripped her clothes off. She then sent for the doctor. The ohild was much burnt about the upper part of the body and the face.-By a Juror: There was tot1 i'v about the house that the young man Dickinson 'i have got to have smothered the flames. The fire did not last a few minutes. There were no fire irons in front of the grate, they had probably been put one side for cleaning. Richard Dickinson, postman, said he was returning from the station with a despatch of letters, and when near the house of deceased he saw the eldest sister with a basin pretending to throw water on a younger sister. Before she threw the water something inside the house attracted her and she ran into the house and began to scream for her mother. He ran into the house and found the deoeased inthe kitchen with her clothing in flames. The child was jumping about the kitchen. He could not find anything in the room to smother the flames. He managed to oatch hold of the girl and did the best he could to extinguish the fire. He tried to smother it with bis hands and drew the child towards the door, and gave a tap at the next door. Mrs Roberts came in and with her apron he smothered the flames. The deceased had only a night dress on. After extinguishing the fire he left the house arid proceeded with hie duties. After he went ii t,, he house he did rot ref) the Bisters of the (JeoeaetU,
