LOCAL GOVERNMENT «'NOTES AND QUERIES* [The following is a. selection from the valuable and authoritative Answers to Queries," published in ";The Local Government Chronicle," repro- duced with the consent of the proprietors of that old-established paper, the recognised official organ of the local governing bodies.] POOR LAW—OVERSEER—QUALIFICATION. "W. S." writes :—"A person is a ratepayer in two parishes. Can he act as overseer for both parishes? One parish has a parish council and the other has an urban district council." Answer.—There is nothing to prevent his acting as overseer for more than one parish, pro- vided that he is a "substantial householder" in all of them. If a person has two houses in different parishes and occupies both, he is qualified in both places, though he sleeps in one and resorts to the other: Rex v. Poynder, 1 B. and C. 178. But merely being a ratepayer is not enough to qualify in either case, unless he is a substantial householder as well. PROCEEDINGS OF GUARDIANS—REPORT BY OFFICER—LIBEL. "X." writes :—"An official makes a privileged communication to hiS board of guardians which is detrimental to a certain institution, and likely to lead to a falling off of the receipts of the latter. The Press who were present at the meeting make a full report in the local paper. What is the position of the official? Does he lay himself open to an action for libel through the reporters making his communication public, or is the publisher liable?" Answer.—The official is not liable in any way, and if the communication was made by him openly to his board, and formed part of their pro- ceedings, the newspaper would not be liable, unless the report was published maliciously; see section 4 of the Law of Libel Amendment Act, 1888. MEDICAL OFFICER—DUTY. "F." writes :—1. "Is the remarks column of the medical relief book the proper place for a report or recommendation to be made by the medical officer when a report book is provided for the purpose? "2. If the master is satisfied that infirmary clothing is properly disinfected with, say, sulphur, can the medical officer order any other disinfectant in its place? "3. Is it any part of the medical officer's duty to order how, Where, or with what particular soap infirmary clothing shall be washed (especially after disinfecting), or is not this a domestic con- cern, and therefore the business of the master or matron?" Answers.—1. The medical relief book is net the proper place for any report, as it is not addressed to the guardians as it should be under Art. 207 of the General Consolidated Order. All reports should be in the report book. Recom- mendations having reference to entries in the medical relief book might well be entered in that book if of minor importance, but even then the medical officer should report to the guardians that he has made the entries there. 2. The medical officer would be responsible and his view should prevail in such cases. 3. In ordinary circumstances these matters would be in the discretion of the master, but if the medical officer wished different soap to be used, he should report to the guardians wnat, in his opinion, should be done. LUNATIC—CHARGE ABILITY. "Clerk" writes:;—"A person, aged 19 years, joined the Army, and becoming insane, was removed, under the Army Act, from Netley to the asylum, chargeable to this snion, he having stated in his attestation paper that he was born here. This statement now appears to be incor- rect, as he was born in Newfoundland and came to this country about 16 months ago. He has not gained a status of irremovability anywhere in England. Please state is there anything to prevent his being made chargeable to the county under section 290 of the Lunacy Act, 1890." Answer.—No. RATING OF SEWERS. "M. B. R." writes:—"About 70 years ago, in developing an estate, the owner created a rent- charge on each plot of land sold for building purposes, for the provision, maintenance, and use of roads and sewers. Subsequently the roads were taken over by the town, and the rent-charge was reduced by one-half. The owner has con- tinued to receive and still receives the rent- charge. The sewers are laid below the surface of the soil, and have never been rated. The question is now raised whether the owner, by receiving the rent-charge is beneficial occupier' of the sewers. I should be obliged by your opinion." Answer.—The sewers are not rateable. See decision in London County Council v. Erith Overseers, L. R. 1893, A. C. 562. RIFLE RANGE—RATE ABILITY. e Subscriber" writes:—"A rifle club or association have hired some land and have erected thereon butts or targets for rifle practice. It appears that they sub-let the said land to a farmer at a rent much lower than they pay to the landlord, in fact I believe the association pay a rent themselves of about per acre and sub-let at about 5s. per acre, the association reserving to themselves the right of user of the range at all times. They also allow other rifle clubs to practise or have competitions on the range on payment of a certain sum. The association have been rated on the rent they have paid, but now object. "1. Are they exempt from rating, the land being in the occupation of the Crown? "2. Is the sub-tenant only rateable on the rent that he actually pays?" Answers.—1. If the land is occupied on behalf of the Crown it is wholly exempt, but as to this there may be some question, and the War Office should be consulted as to their being the occu- piers. If it is so occunied, the Government will make a grant in lieu of rates. 2. Yes, if that represents what a hypothetical tenant would give under the circumstances. RATEABILITY OF PAUPERS AND OTHER POOR PERSONS. P." writes:—"1. Are an old couple who are living on a parish allowance liable for poor and other rates? "2. Would you state if such a couple who were kept by their sons who were labourers were liable for the same? "3. Is a. widow with a large family who has to support herself and one child liable to pay rates? She has parish allowance for the other children." Answers.—1, 2, and 3. Yes, they are all liable and must be assessed, but if they are too poor to pay they might apply to the justices to excuse the rates, and the overseers would then be relieved of the obligation of collecting them. l, PUBLIC HEALTH ACTS—OPEN BATHING TLACE —CHARGES. "Constant Reader" writes:—"The urban district council of C. have decided to make an open-air swimming bath for boys and men. They "were advised that they could charge Id. for each bather, with an additional penny if a towel is required. It is now contended that the penny charge must also include use of towel. The point is important, as the resolution to make the bath was only adopted by a small majority on the understanding that it would be very little, if any, loss to the rates. Can the council charge Id. for bath. and also Id. for towel, when the towel is asked for?" Answer.—The charge fixed by Part V. of the Schedule to the Baths and Washhouses Act, 1847, as amended by section 14 of the Act of 1878, is Id. without the right to have a towel; and if towels are provided they may be charged for extra, but bathers may bring their own towels, and cannot be compelled to hire those provided by the council. STREET IMPROVEMENTS—APPORTIONMENT. "Rex" writes :—In apportioning the cost of street improvement in an urban district under the Public Health Act, 1875, section 150, where there ure intersecting streets— "1. Should the width of the intersecting streets be measured to the adjoining owners t "2. Should the intersecting streets bo measured with the frontages, and divided Amongst the several owners? "3. Should the frontages be measured net! If Answers.—1. No. 2. Yes. 3. It is not clear what you mean by "net** TWie frontages should be measured as then actually stand, from boundary to boundary.

I Carmarthsnshire Point-to-Point j Races. I A SUCCESSFUL DAY. The increasing popularity of the Point-to-point which mark the close of the season of the Car- murtlimshire Hunt Club, was amply evidenced on Monday last, when a large crowd turned up in very windy, albeit fine weather, at a rather inaccessible part of the county—to wit, the Fox and Hounds, Llangin- ning, in which people who know the county will recog- nise a lofty eminence which bears favourable com- parison to the many to be seen from such a command- ing situation. The onlookers were certainly sports- men of the right kind, and the seasonable gate which blew only helped to increase the good humour of the large gathering. The country around was decidedly good hunting country, and calculated to try the mettle of the best horses. This, then, combined with splendid entries, went to make the meeting one of the best that has been held under the auspices of the Hunt Club. Amongst those present were :—Mr and Mrs J W J Buckley, Penyfai Mr and Mrs T Parkinson, Castle-Pygyn Mr and Mrs Lloyd Price, Glangwili Mr and Mrs Grismond Philipps, Cwmewilly Mr and Mrs Protheroe-Beynon, Trewern Mr J. Walton Bishop, Bryneithyn, Llandilo Miss Gwladys Morris, Coomb Mr Delme Davies-Evans, Pantglas Miss Bath and Miss Francis .Tames, Alltyferin Mr R R Carver and the Misses Carver, Wenallt Mr R H Harries, M.F.H., The Croft Mr and Mrs Carver, Trecadwgan Mr D G Protheroe, Mr E S Protheroe, and Miss Protheroe, Dolwilym Capt and Mrs Har- ries, Miss Harries, and the Messrs Harries, Bryn- towv Mr M Mordaunt Smith and party, Lau'harne; Mr H W Pryse, Ystradwrallt Mrs G .vynne Huajies, Glancothi, and Miss Gwvnne-Hughes, Tregeyb Mr W S G Mori-is Mr and Mrs Froodvale Davies, Car- marthen Mr and Mrs Valentin, Llanelly Mr John Francis, Misses Francis, and Messrs J and D Francis, Myrtle Hill Mr and Mrs D H Thomas, Starling Park Mr Percy and Mr James Thomas, Derllvs Court Mr W V H Thomas, Carmarthen; Mrs Olive, Boar's Head Hotel; Mr and Mrs J F Rees, Carmar- then Mr D Davies, Boksburg Hall Mr D Stephens, Aria's Mr Young, Kidwelly; Mr Thomas, Kidwelly Dr Ll. Bowen-Jones, The Friiry. Carmarthen Mr Evans, Eagle Bush, Neath Mr D Glasbrcok, Swan- sea Dr and Mrs R L Thomas and Miss Thomas, St Clears Mr Howard White !1nd the Misses White, The Grange, Carmarthen Dr Denzil Harries, Car- marthen Dr Cresswick Williams. Whitland Dr and Mrs N:'uncon Davies, Furnace House, Carmarthen Mr J Anthony and the Messrs Anthony, Cilveithv Mr Harrison, Tenby Mr Thomas, Forest Mr D H R Thomas, Whitland Miss Thomas, Parke; Mr Powell, Whitland, &c. The strong wind was the only one thing which militated against good races, as the ground was in ad- mirable running form, and the jumps firm and good. There was no question that the strongest horse would win, as, indeed, barring accidents, proved the case. The committee deserve to he congratulated on their selection of the course, which took a semi-circular form, over a distance of about S'r miles. With the exception of a short distance behind a bank, the varying fortunes of the entrants could be followed throughout from start to finish, from the winning posts on a field on Eithin farm, tenanted by Mr David Beynon, under Mr Protheroe-Beynon, Tre- wern. Starting at the farm of Mr Rees, Cethin, a farm owned by Mr Protheroe-Beynon, the course ran on to Castell Gorfod farm, owned by Mr W J Buck- I"y, and tenanted by Mr James, hence to Penlan f irm, owned by Alderman J Williams, and on to Ffynonlwyd, the property of Mr Protheroe-Beynon, and in the occupation 'of Mr D Lewis. It followed on to Eithinduon, belonging to Mr Davies, Penrhiw, finishing on Eithin farm. There were 28 banks on the course, one of them being described by the Master (Mr R H Harries The Croft, St Clears), as the biggest he had ever ridden over across country. All tenants of the land covered are good sportsmen, and did all they could to enhance the day's sport. A very popular win was that of the Master's (Mr R H Harries) "n False Prophet," easily won what might be described as the blue ribbon of the meeting, beating Mr Lort Phillips's veteran "Spqnah," in the open race. The winner totally belied his name, as al- though the favourite, he won in a canter without hardly turning a hair. ACCIDENT TO MR DELME DAVIES-EVANS. In this race, however,a regrettable accident occurred. That popular and excellent sportsman, Mr Delme Davies-Evans, Pantglas, was mounted on Limelight III." and when going strong and looking like business, he fell af the fourth bank from home, throwing his rider, who, by some means or other, sustained painful injuries. Drs Bowen-Jones, Denzil Harries, and R L Thomas were soon in attendance, and found the unfortunate gentleman suffering from an injury in the abdomen. It was not possible to say whether inter- nal injuries had been sustained, but he was in great ain. Time alone will reveal the nature of the injury, if injury has been inflicted, which it is fervently hoped, has not. General and deep regret was expressed at the accident, especially in view of his approaching marriacre with Miss Gwladys Morris, Coomb. The local race caused considerable excitement, and Mr Owen Anthony was loudly cheered when he passed the winning post, a good winner on "Lucy Glitters," Miss Morris's (Coomb) pretty animal.—Mr Jack Carver came in for a hearty reception when he I won the farmer's race on Pill-box." There were a number of book makers on the field, and a good deal of money exchanged hands. It could hardly be called a good day for the bookies." The officials, who carried cut their duty with their accustomed skill, were Judge, Mr W J Buckley, ex-M.F.H., Penyfai clerk of the scales, Mr W V H Thomas, Carmarthen starter, Mr T Parkinson, Castle Pygyn stewards, Mr R H Harries, M.F.H Mr Grismond Philipps. Capt E J Evans, Mr Hugh Waddle, Mr W V H Thomas, Mr T Parkinson, Mr E H Morris, Mr H?nry Bath, Mr R R Carver, Mr H W Pryse, Mr Pryse Lloyd, Mr B W Valentin, Mr E C Harries, Mr G Protheroe-Beynon, Mr M Mordaunt Smith, Mr Delme Davies-Evans, Mr D H Thomas, Major Morris, Mr W S Andrew, Dr Naunton Davies, Mr T Lewis, Mr W S G Morris, Mr T Nicholas, Mr G P Roch, Mr J C V Pryse-Rice, Mr Francis James, Dr R L Thomas, Mr E S Protheroe, jun., and Mr D G Protheroe The duties of hon. sec. were atrain ably carried out by Mr John Fiancis, Myrtle Hill.

I'"'' Joint Counties Asylum.
Joint Counties Asylum. MEETING OF VISITORS AT CARMARTHEN. The statutory meeting of the Committee of the Visitors of the Joint Counties Lunatic Asylum, Car- marthen, was held at the Institution on the 26th ult., when there were present: Mr J Howard Griffiths, St. David's, (chairman) Dr Griffiths, Milford Prof. D. E. Jones, Carmarthen; Mr J Lloyd, Penybank, Abergwili Mr H. Jones-Davies, Glyneiddan, Nant- garedÙ: Mr Wm. Jones, Llandilo Rev W Grittiths, New Quay: together with the clerk (Mr W Morgan Griffiths); the medical superintendent (Dr Edwin Goodall), and the chaplain (the Rev Jonathan Marsden, Llanllwch Vicarage). THE ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN. The first business on the agenda was the election of Chairman for the ensuing year.—A discussion took place as to whether the appointment should be ad- journed until the Pembrokeshire train arrived to see whether other members would attend.—Mr H Jones- Davies proposed that the business be proceeded with, but Dr Griffiths proposed that the appointment be deferred, remarking that they had been sat upon too much by Carmarthenshire.—Mr II Jones-Davies repudiated any suggestion of sitting on the other members. Nothing was further from his mind. He simply wanted to follow the agenda.—On a division it was decided to proceed with the business.—Mr W Jones proposed that Mr John Lloyd be elected chair- man.—Professor Jones I second. He is Mr John Lloyd, Penvbank, Abergwili, near Carmarthen (laughter).—Mr H J Davies: South Wales (laughter). I Dr Griffiths I don't rise in opposition to my friend, Mr Lloyd. No man has greater respect for him than myself. Carmarthenshire has been, and Pembroke- shire hae been, but Cardiganshire has been for many years without a chairman. I can't say for how long. I don't expect to carry it, but at the same time I move that the Rev Mr Williams, Cardigan, be appointed chairman. I think it is very important that we should be as united as we possibly can be. I think we deci- ded to have a chairman from each county alternately. —Professor Jones Last year there was an exception made. Pembrokeshire came in before Cardiganshire. The latter ceuntv should have, according to the rule, come in before Pembrokeshire.—Dr Griffiths: We have not had more than our turn.—Professor Jones Yes, you have.—The Clerk then looked up the chairmen for the last five years, and it was found that Carmarthen- shire had had only one chairman in the five years.—Dr Griffiths Professor Jones has been chairman.—Pro- fessor Jones No I would not take it for the world (laughter).—Mr H. Jones-Davies said that during the last five years they had only one of their representa- tives appointed chairman. Mr Lloyd was in a very delicate position to vote for himself, but he would not be voting for himself, but for Carmarthenshire.—The Chairman promised not to vote if Mr Lloyd did not, and this was agreed to.On a division Dr Griffiths a d the Rev — Griffiths voted for the amendment, and Professor Jones, Mr W. Jones, and Mr Jones-Davies f, the original motion, which was declared car- ried Lo:- m VOTE OF THANKS. Mr Lloyd, "on taking the chair vacated by Mr Howard Griffiths, said he thanked them all for the honour they had conferred on him. He would endea- vour to the best of his ability to carry out the work to their satisfaction. He then proposed a vote of thanks to the outgoing chairman for the able and impartial manner in which lie had carried on the meeting of the committee for the past twelve months. They were all extremely satisfied with the way he had conducted the business, and he onlv hoped he would be so successful in his endeavours.—The Rev W. Griffiths seconded, and the motion was carried with acclamation.—Mi- Griffiths, in returning thanks, said the year had been a very happy one to him, and his relations with the members of the committee had been very pleasant (heir, hear). VARIOUS. A communication was received from the clerk of the Brecon and Radnor Joint Asylum (which was recently opened) asking for information as to the salary paid by the committee to the official chaplain, and as to the arrangements made with Nonconformist ministers for the holding of ,ervice,, a,t the A,,yliini.-Tile Clerk stated the Nonconformist ministers of Carmarthen gave their services gratuitously, and that, as the Church of England chaplain had been appointed many years sgo, the salary paid to him would not be a fair criterion to go npon.Dr Griffiths Can't we crive the Noncon- formist mmisters something ?—The Clerk They do in many asvitin),s.Di, Griffiths Would you be chaplain here, Professo- Jones ?—Professor Jones Yes, if you give ni- a good salary (laughter).—It was agreed to reply in the way the Clerk had pointed out. The Clerk stated he had received a letter from the Clerk of the Carmarthenshire County Council stating that the members of the committee had been re-elected. Carmarthen held a statutory meeting, so were more up-to-date than the other two counties (laughter).— Dr Griffiths Pembrokeshire and Cardiganshire are more up-to-date, as thev had done away with the statutory meeting. Professor Jones I question whether they are entitled to vote now seeing they are not re-elected (laughter). —Mr Jones-Davies I think they are because their term of office does not expire until the next meeting of their respective Councils.— Mr Howard Griffiths I shall ask for the Chairman's ruling on the point before I vote (laughter).— The Chairman I shall decide that: when it comes to voting.—Professor Jones Mr C M Wil- liams, like a wise man, kept away to-day because he was not re-elected (laughter). The weekly charge for the maintenance of the nauper lunatics was fixed at 9s 0-Id, instead of 8s 5d last year, being an increase of d. A special report upon the available means of fire extinction at the Institution, including recommenda- tions for improvement of defects, was presented by Dr Goodall, and it was discussed in private. This was all the business of importance.
