LORD DURHAM AS A RUNNER.
LORD DURHAM AS A RUNNER. "Old and untrained as I am, I could have run alongside," said Lord Durham, in giving evidence on Tuesday on behalf of his chauffeur, John Mallett, against whom a charge of driving a car at the rate of 22 miles an hour in New- market was dismissed in that town. Lord Dur- ham is in his fifty-fourth year. Colonel Charles Lambton, Lord Durham's brother, said that he was about to tell the chauffeur to accelerate the speed, fearing that the slow progress rendered them object of derision, when the police stopped the car. According to the police evidence the car covered a measured furlong in 20sec.-a rate of 22 miles an hour—but the chairman said that 2 the official stop-watch which the justice4 hxd examined was htklf a second incorrect. --+

HUGE MUSIC-HALL SALARIES.
HUGE MUSIC-HALL SALARIES. A strong protest against the high salaries paid to music-hall artists was made by Mr. Tozer in pre biding on Wednesday at the meet- ing of the shareholders of the Oxford Musio Hall. He said although there had been a large, increase in the door takings the extra amount for the salaries of artists more than swallowed this up. The net profit, £ 17,860, was somewhat less than the previous year. Other variety theatres had felt the growth of salaries even more than this company had done, and it was becoming generally recognised that salaries which in their aggregate had ap- proached ridiculously exorbitant eums could no longer be profitably offered.

JCERBIBLE MINING TRAGEDY.
JCERBIBLE MINING TRAGEDY. An extraordinary tragedy has occurred in a mine at Arrada, in Spain. It appears that gixty miners, belonging to two rival workmen's asso- ciations, entered into a hot dispute with regard to labour questions, the quarrel speedily de- veloping into a. free fight. During the struggle one of the combatants accidentally dropped a dynamite cartridge, which exploded with such violence that the roof and walls of the mine collapsed, and buried the, whole of the men. A rescue party succeeded in getting out five of the men alive, but it is feared that the whole, of the remainder have perished.

THE SUCCESSFUL .CLERGYMAN, The Rev. P. E. T. Widdrington, vicar of St. Peter's, Coventry, in a letter to his parishioners says: "With most congregations paucity and conventionality of ideas and contracted social sympathies tare more likely to make a man a successful clergyman. If he preaches platitudes pleasingly, and says soothing things to make people feel better on Sundays, if he can run en- tertainments, and is an adept in the mysteries of mothers' meetings, if he makes -himself so agreeable in his afternoon visitations that his parishioners say Such a nice man not a bit like a clergyman,' hfe'will meet the requirements Qf 4

FUNERAL OF MISS ELSIE HUGHES.…
FUNERAL OF MISS ELSIE HUGHES. COLESHILL. The marks of respect and of sympathy in the hour of greatest solemnity were, on Thursday afternoon last, shown by the inhabi- tants of the ancient borough of Flint towards the respected Town Clerk and his family when there were laid to rest in the family grave in Flint Cemetery, the mortal remains of Miss Elizabeth Sarah (Elsie) Hughes, the younger sister of Mr T. W. and Miss Hughes, of Coleshill, whose death, on the preceding Monday, after a long illness, it was our sad office to chronicle last week. It was then remarked that the unbounded sympathy of all was with Mr and Miss Hughes in their time of deep sorrow, and the observation was verified in every way when the public at the obsequies testified their feelings of regret for the departed and regard for the bereaved. It was a typical June day. The foliaged trees semmed to whisper a dirge as the rustle of the wind swayed branches, and the scent ( the roses and the May was a natural lvk%t,ase wafted by the breeze, and through it WaS borne in their oaken casket the remains of one beloved within the house by those near and dear to her, and held in high regard and respect by everyone without. Before the solemn procession wended its way down the gravelled drive, the opening part of the service for the Burial of the Dead was read by the Vicar of Bagillt, the Rev Howell Griffith. At the gates, the cortege was met by the Mayor and Corporation of Flint, the Borough Justices, Public Officials, and very many of the inhabitants of the Borough, and who took their places in the pro cession as it proceeded towards Flint. Approaching the Borough, it was seen that throughout the route drawn blinds and shuttered shops and half-mast flags were the silent tokens of respect felt for the departed. Onwards, along Holywell-road and past the Town Hall into Church-street, the way was taken to St. Catherine's Welsh Church, where, for years, the late Miss Hughes bad been a faithful Sunday School teacher and a valuable Church worker. Here a halt was made, and the mourners entered the sacred edifice, where the mournful yet hope- ful Burial Service was held. The Rev R. Compton Davies read the prayers, and the lesson was read by the Vicar of Bagillt, a.nd the Revs H. H. Hirst and R. Owen, c^rates of Flint, also officiated. The choir Ranted the 39th Psalm, and the hymns, On the Resurrection morning" and 'Peace, perfect peace," were sung during the service. As the recessional was made, the organist, Mr Pryce Jones, played Handel's Dead March." At the Cemetery the committal portion of the service was given by the Rev R. Owen, and the last sad rites were ended. The chifi mourners at the funeral were -Mr Tbos. W. Hughes (Town Clerk of and Chairman of the Flintshire Jrducation Committee), brother of the P Cease,d Mr Pyers Edwards, Holywell; £ ev T.

PRESTATYN.
PRESTATYN. SUNDAY GOLF. 4L- t THE 0 II U R 0 H E SIN D I GN ANT. The movement to introduce Sunday Golf at Prestatyn has aroused much indigua icn among the ahurches, and on Sunday reference was made to the matter in the places off worship. At the congrega- tional Ciiurch the pastor (the R(:H' Ben Williams) preached very strongly against it. He depriCited the desecration of the Sabbath, which was prevalent in the neighbourhood, remarking that if a firm stand was not taken now they wouid go back to the regrettable state of things whoa pubiii fairs were held in the district oa S andays, and all mannas of sport indulged in. At the Welsh Weslayan Church a resolution was unanimously passed (after being sapporied by the Chairman of the Urban Counoil) protesting against the proposed Sunday golf, it been stated that if allowed it woold create a precedent, and there was no knowing wheta this would end. PRESTATYN WATER SUPPLY. The Lootl Legislation Committer of the Houcc of Commons, Sir F. Layland-Barratt in the chair, spent the whole of Monday ia considering; the new clauses intended to give effect to the decision in regard ta the water snpply of Prestatyn, and also the clauses in the bill dealing with the fresh sanitary and other powers sought by the District Council. Mr Wedderburn, K.C. and Mr Keen were present f&r the promoters; Lady McLaren was represented by M, Fitzgerald, K.O. and Mr Raymond Asquith the Earl of Plymouth by Mr Aspinall; and the Eaoleaiastical Commissioners by Mr Shaw. After considerable discussion, a clause was settled for the protection of Lord Plymouth and the Eccles- iastical Commissioners, riparian owners of the Marian Stream. It provided that if, and when the resident population of the water district of Prestatyn, reached 10,000, the District Council should, as a condition of taking any greater amount of water from the Marian brook, forthwith obtain the necessary powers to construct a proper and sufficient reservoir to provide compensation water for the brook.

THE ROYAL WELCH FUSILIERS…
Hawarden-Private W Evans, Private J. Jones. At Wrexham the detachment of the 5th Batt. were joined by those of the 4th Batt. R.W.F., and the 4th Cheshire, and sub- sequently by that of the 7th Batt. R.W.F. Arriving at Windsor at five a.m. on Saturday, the detachments marched to the Rest Camp, where with the other units they remained until the hour for parade on the East Lawn, in front of the historic castle. The Royal party under the canopy were surrounded by the colour parties who formed square. After the consecration of the colours party after party advanced to the canopy and received their colours, the King's flag and the Regimental flag, the varied uniforms of the parties forming a kaleidoscopic picture of colour and effect. The Flintshire detachment witnessed the stirring scene from their position in the square, and then as the one-hundredth and fourth unit the colour party advanced and the Guards Officers taking the colours from the Non-commissioned Officers, his Majesty the King laid his royal hand upon the flags, Lieut. Beswick received the King's flag, and Lieut Gordon the regimental flag, and the Officers of the Guards placed them in the sockets. The colour party returned to their detachment who saluted the colours and afterwards the King. The process was followed through out and the ceremony concluded with the march.past as his Majesty stood at the saluting point. On Saturday evening the Flintshire detach- ment returned home, staying in Wrexham Barracks until the Sunday morning. It is probable that an interesting demon- stration will take place on the 17th July, at Mostyn Park, when Lord Mostyn will open his park to the 5th Battalion, and the chief ceremony of the day will be the handing over to the battalion of the colours presented by the King, and known as the King's flag, and that by Lady Florentia Hughes and the ladies of Flintshire, and known as the Regimental nag.
