-14 QUEENSFERRY. PERFORMANCE OF "THE MESSIAH." "The Messiah" was performed on Tues- day evening week in the Co-operative Hall, under the auspices of the Primitive Metho- dist Church. The choir, numbering a hun- dred, under the conductorship of Mr. Charles Williams did justice to the chorus- es. The orchestra, although uncombined in a few instances, were a. great help to the difficult choruses.

The soloists were Miss Hilda Ro- berts, Ellesmere Port (soprano), Miss Katie Peters, Buckley (contralto), Mr. W. Reece, Shotton (tenor), Mr. J. L. Coppack, Sandy- croft (bass), all of whom acquitted them- selves admirably. Miss Roherts's rich so- prano voice was heard to advantage in "Re- joice greatly" and "I know that my Redeem- er liveth." Miss Katie Peters impressed the audience with her beautiful renderings of "0 Thou that tellest" and "He was despised." Mr. Reece, possessing a pure tenor voice, excelled himself in the opening reoititive, "Comfort ye," and the following air, "Every valley." The prophetic declara- j tion, "Thus saith the Lord," was majesti-' cally sung by Mr. Coppack, but Mr. Cop-

MUMMIES AND MOTORS. How soon motoring becomes an ancient institution was exemplified by two visitors at the Edinburgh Museum during Show week, says the "Motor." Observing the case of mummies at the doorway, one asked the other, "Whit's yon, Jock?" "Oh said the other, "that's a mummy." "And whit's a mummy?" asked the first. "He's a man that's been dead a thoosan* years." "And whit's that B.C. 94 on the lid o' the coffin?" "Man, I don't know, except it micht be the number of the motor-ear that killed him

att MAYOR ON STRIKE. Mayor Charles Rogers, of Mendota, Illin- ois, has gone on strike because his pay has been fixed at eightpence a day. Besides threatening to leave the city to take care of itself as best it can without a chief magis- trate, Mayor Rogers talks of suing the city unless he is paid £ 60 a year.

-+- NAGGING A NATURAL EVIL. In a case at Greenwich, in which a hus- band asked for a, separation "on the ground of nigging and other things," Mr. Sym- mons (the magistrate) said "That will not do. You cannot get a separation now, and I hope you never will, because a woman nags."

I ———— I BUCKLEY. MEN'S MEETING. The Dean of St. Asaph gave a fine ad- dress at the men's meeting at St. Matthew's Church, Buckley, on Sunday afternoon. There was a large congregation, who listen- ed to the address with great interest. The singing, whieE was of a hearty character, was accompanied on the organ by Mr. James Tyson. YOUNG PEOPLE'S DAY. At the Primitive Methodist Tabernacle, Buckley, on Sunday last, special services were held, and there were good congrega- tions. The Rev. John Swinden, of Elles- mere Port, preached morning and evening. The favourite anthem by Woodward, "The Radiant Morn," was well rendered by the choir, under the conductorship of Mr. Da- vies Hayes. Mr. T. Roberts presided at the organ.

CAERWYS. MEMORIAL TO BISHOP ROWLAND ELLIS. There has just been erected at St. Paul's Church, Edinburgh, a handsome canopied pulpit, as a memorial to the late Bishop Rowland Ellis, who was rector of the church for many years, before he was Bishop of Aberdeen and the Orkneys, and prior to that vicar of Mold and a native of Caer- wys, where a clock was recently placed in the church tower as a memorial. The pul- pit is an exceedingly fine piece of work, and follows the lines of English pulpits of the 15th century, but has a certain amount of originality. The woodwork of both the East and West of England has influenced the architects (Messrs. Dick Peddie and Forbes Smith, Edinburgh), and the rich and varied foliage of the latter type has been combined with the small buttresses and more strictly architectural work of the former district. The canopy is massive and striking; the dove, amid rays under- neath it, is almost suggestive of Renaissance Work, and the treatment of the cresting is very original. NEW CEMENT WORKS. A new cement company has been recently formed under the style and title of "The North Wales Portland Cement Company," who have acquired the disused Maesycoed Cement Mill, which was a well-known and prosperous flour mill in Messrs Evans' time upwards of 30 years ago. The works are to be altered and modernised, plans having been drawn and measurements taken, and in fact the whole scheme is in an advanced stage of completion and the prospectus al- most ready to be issued, when the prelimin- ary operations will very shortly commence. The company is formed with a capital of £ 50,000, whose object it is to alter the pre- sent works and equip so that when the works are in full swing the company will employ 150 hands and turn out 500 tons weekly, and later hope to do 2,000 per week. The raw material and site have been examined by the most eminent expert firm of Messrs. Henry Faija and Co., Old Queen street, Westminster, London, who have just issued thereon a most highly satisfactory I report, in fact above the most sanguine an- ticipations, there being an abundant supply of raw material immediately adjoining the works; there being 17 acres of blue slate rock stone and the same quantity or more of the limestone near to. Regarding the whole, the scheme is considered a good one and capable on completion of producing first class Portland cement, complying in every respect with all the requirements of home and continental tests. The requisite standard test of the analyst is excellent, and in all respects found to be equal in quality to the best English and Continental brands. We understand that a great many of the old customers with whom Mr. Georgieff has during the past ten years been associated have volunteered to take shares in this concern. Great credit, is due to Mr. Georgieff. who since last July has laboured unceasingly to advance the scheme. CONCERT AND PRESENTATION. On Thursday evening last, the annual school children's concert in aid of the school funds and towards reducing the debt in- curred through the recent extensive altera- tions and addition, was held in the Town Hall, which was filled to its utmcst capaci- ty by an appreciative audience. The pro- ceedings were most enjoyable. Mr. Evans (headmaster) and his capable staff of lady assistants deserve great credit for teaching them so efficiently. Mr. Trevor J. D.

The Chairman remarked that it was with sincere regret that they were los- ing the valued services of Mr. Evans. The Rector and Mrs. Davey, of Maesmynan Hall, in a few well-chosen words, handed two purses of gold to Mr. Evans—one from I the public and the other from the teachers and scholars. Mr. Evans suitably returned thanks, and stated that he had spent five happy years at Caerwys. He intended tak- ing up duties March 1st (St. David's Day).

FFYNNONGROEW CHURCH INSTITUTE CONCERT. A crowded audience at the Church Room, Ffynnongroew, last week, enjoyed an ex- ceptionally good classical concert for over two hours. The proceeds were in aid of the Church Institute, which since the open- ing has made considerable progress. There has lately been provided a three-quarter size billiard table. This the number great- ly appreciate, and there are quite a number of members becoming very efficient in the game. Mr. H. R. Hughes, Prestatyn, pre- sided and made a generous donation to- wards the Church Institute. The artistes, who gave a really good account of them- selves, included Mrs. E. R. Evans, Ffyn- nongroew (pianoforte); Miss Hughes, Brook House, Prestatyn (pianoforte); Miss Daisy Jackson Smith, Ffynnongroew (pianoforte); Miss Dilys Hughes, Prestatyn ('cello); Miss C. E.

Armon Ellis, vicar, proposed a- vote of thanks to the chairman, the artistes, and the committee for all they had done to secure such a very successful concert. Mr. Henry E. Williams, seconded the proposi- tion which was carried with applause, and duly acknowledged. Miss Minnie Williams took the solo in the National Anthem.

GREENFIELD. CONCERT AT ALPHA. An interesting and well-attended concert was held at Alpha Lecture Hall on Wednes- day evening in last week. Mr. John Ro- berts, Lodestone Cottage, presided. Miss Eunice Williams, Rhyl, gave much pleasure in the several songs she contributed. Mr. Roose, Rhyl, and Mr. J. Foulkes, Rhesy- cae, were highly appreciated, they sang in splendid style. Mr. W. R. Owen, Downing, was down for two Dickens' character sketches, but indisposition prevented his appearing for the second sketch, much to the regret of the audience. Mr. Owen gave the character of Grand Father speaking with Little Nell in a most realistic manner. Miss Ena. Peers very effectively impersonat- ing Little Nell. The second sketch was to have been Mr. Squeers opening School (Nicholas Nickleby). Mr. H. G. Morris brought his party of children from the Bag. illt Council School, and their action songs were given with the most perfect precision and were keenly applauded.

HAWARDEN. SOCIAL. Among the many social evenings and en- tertainments which have taken place recent- ly at Hawarden the social held on Tuesday week in the Canon Drew Memorial Schools was not the least successful. It was ar- ranged by the officers and members of the Hawarden Company of the C.L.B. The weather was unfavourable for visitors from a distance, but notwithstanding the unpro- pitious weather there was a good attend- ance. The two central halls were thrown into one, thus providing ample space for the dancing and other amusements arranged for by a committee of the N.C.O.'e of the com- pany. The duties of MC.'a were under- taken by Staff Sergeants Caiger and Butler, and the music was supplied by Mr. Evans, of Chester. Dancing was kept up with spirit till 11.30. The uniforms and sashes of the members of the brigade added bright- ness to the appearance of the dancers. Among those who attended were Lieut. the Rev. C. Dearnley (commanding the com- pany), Rev. F. S. M. Bennett (chaplain). Miss Thom, Rev. P. Speight, and others in teresteel in the C.L.B. The social was a pronounced success.

MOSTYN. SMOKER AT THE CONSERVATIVE CLUB. The Mostyn Conservative Club was crowd- ed on Wednesday evening week, when a smoking concert was held. Lord Mostyn, president of the club, presided, and Mr. A. 0. Emlyn, Rhyl, agent of the Flintshire Constitutional Association, was present. The concert was a gratifying success in every way and gave the utmost pleasure to all present. The noble chairman discharged the duties of the chair with his accustomed geniality, and during the course of the eve- ning gave a short practical address. The address by Mr. Emlyn was received with enthusiastic approval. The musical pro- gramme was capitally sustained and appre- ciation was expressed in frequent recalls. Among the contributors to the pleasure of .the evening were the Hon. E. Lloyd Mos- tyn, who gave songs and whistling solos; Mr. Gregory, Rhyl, Mr. Ivor Jones, Mr. Aneurin Jones, and Mr. A. 0. Emlyn gave songs, and Mr. Holgate, pianoforte solo. A grand selection of records were put on a gramophone kindly lent by Lord Mostyn. Mr. W. Nuttall, Ingledene, was the efficient accompanist. At the close of the concert a vote of thanks to the chairman and the artistes was proposed by Mr. Lindsay, se- conded by Mr. W. T. Foulkes. In respond- ing Lord Mostyn said he was glad so many were present that evening. They had had a pleasant and very successful smoker, and he felt grateful to those who had organised it and to those who had given their ser- vices. He particularly thanked Mr. W. Nuttall for his kindness in playing the ac- companiments. He was pleased to note the steady progress of the club, and hoped that it would continue to grow in popularity among the young men of Mostyn, and that! they would take advantage of the facilities the club offered for recreation as well as give their support in the cause they had at heart. Mr. Emlyn responded on behalf of the artistes.

SOCIAL EVENING. A second social was held in Nerquis Natio- al School on Friday evening, and was well attended. The arrangements for the tea were entrusted to Miss Howe and Miss Rees, whilst Mrs. Howe, Mrs. Price, Mrs. Owen, and Mrs. Parry helped largely in the classroom.

Ro- berts, Old School, Nerquis, met on Mon- day evening to arrange for his benefit a large social to be held in Nerquis National Set >ol on Thursday in Easter week. It will be remembered that Mr. Roberts met with an accident three months ago, which unfortunately has resulted in his foot hav- ing to be amputated.

?« PRESTATYN. HEAVY PENALTIES FOR BUTCHERS. At Crewe last week, the magistrates im- posed a fine of £ 15 and lOgs. costs on Tho- mas Arnott Owen, butcher, of Prestatyn, and E10 and 5gs. costs on Charles Barlow, butcher, Crewe. It was stated that Owen consigned to Barlow three-quarters of an ox which had been condemned by the Presta- tyn health officer as tuberculous. The meat was afterwards found hung in Barlow's shop. Owen said he thought Barlow was a manufacturer of dog biscuits. Barlow de- nied this, and said the meat was sent to be sold on commission. It was seized before he saw it.

ORDINARY MATCH. MOLD COUNTY SCHOOL v. CHESTER CITY AND COUNTY SCHOOL. The match between the first teams had to be postponed, owing to the bad state of the Mold ground, consequent on the recent rain. The match between the second teams provided a capital game. Chester started strongly, and scored in the first minute. Play was chiefly in midfield for a long time after this, but when the Mold team got into their stride they took the lion's share of

Doan's Backache Kidney Pills have proved a great blessing to many old folks, because they banish backache, regulate the action of the kidneys and help the kidneys to keep the blood pure. The greatest discomforts of old age are poor eyesight, lame back, stiff, achy joints and urinary ills. Most often these troubles come from a weakening of the kidneys. The kidneys have a heavy task during a long life, of filtering the blood and keeping the body free from the irritating effects of uric acid. Kidney weakness usually gets little attention, and it is no wonder if the kidneys break down. And when the kidneys are sluggish and weak, there is little comfort. Backache is likely to become a constant trouble; lame- ness in the morning, pains when stooping or lifting, restlessness at night, too frequent and painful passages of the kidney secretions, and persistent languor. Rheumatic pains, stiff joints, dizzy spells and weakness of sight and hearing are often doe to the excess of uric acid in the blood. So are gravel and stone, dropsy sweliings of the limbs and extremities, heart weakness. These symptoms are caused by weakness 1 or diseases of the kidneys and bladder. Urinary waste is being left too long in the ■ system, and is setting up disease in different < parts of the body. Doan's Backache Kidney Pills relieve inflammation of the kidneys and bladder, and make the urinary system active, so that it can flush out this poisonous kidney waste. This remedy contains no injurious ingredients whatever, and is safe for all—men and women, old and i young. t Elderly people will therefore find Doan's Backache Kidney Pills a valuable remedy; they keep the kidneys active, and prevent waste water and uric acid staying too long in the body. Many bad cases of stone, dropsy, rheumatism, lumbago, and dis- tressing urinary weaknesses have been completely cured by Doan's Pills, even in patielllts between 70 and 80 years of age In S/9 boxes only, six boxe* 18/9.

In the second half Mold had the better of the game for about twenty minutes, and added two goals to their score; then they relaxed their efforts, 'and Chester took full advantage of this. For a time they had matters all their own way and levelled the scores, amid great enthusiasm. There were still a few minutes left, and both sides strove hard to get the winning goal. Two minutes from time Albert Williams eluded the backs and scored with a lovely shot, the winning goal. Result: Mold 6, Chester 5: This was Chester's first defeat this season, and the Mold team are to be congratulated on their fine display. Goals were scored for Mold by J. W. Jones (2), A. E. Wil- liams (2), D. Mason, and W. Parry. Mold team: J. Silver; E. Rowlands, H. Probert; F. Jones, D. Mason, H. Higgins; E. Smith, J. W. Jones, W. Parry, A. E. Williams, A. G. Wollen.
