Mr. John Saer, clerk to tTio guardians, prosecuted. Mr. Evans, relieving officer, said that the person chargeabie was "Jam Jones, labourer, Trevaughan Hill, defendants father, who was in receipt of 3s. per week. In January last year defendant signed a promise to pay 18. per wk. On account of family trouble last summer the guardians remitted to de- fendant the sum. of 21s. He was working at the Intermediate Colliery, Blaengarw, and during the eight weeks ending January 15th last h earned on an average JE1 lis. 4d. per week. Defendant was a married man with two chddren, and had only paid 5s.. and owed 27s. An order of Is. 1 >er week was made. RIVAL CHIP MERCHANTS. P.C. Thomas Bees charged Vincent Comey. Lam- mas-street, and Brecosi Antonio, King-street. drivers of chip-potato carts, with reckless driving in Hall- street on the 15th ult. Comey pleaded "Not guilty," while Antonio admitted the offence. The constable said that- at 8.10 on the night in question he saw defendants driving horses in chip carts recklessly aaitl to the danger of the public. They drove from .NoHVsquare into-' HaU-stpeet Comey leading, and whilst Antonio was frying to pass his wheel went on to the footway, and the people parsing had to run in all directions. Witness called upon them to slop, but they did not. Ho followed them up, and got their names and ad- dresses. Cross-examined by Comey—Witness had cautioned him before, and had had eomphiints about them. The Mayor rebuked the defendant for the way in which they drove. Those carts were regular nuisances, and he had had to caution them before. The case was dismissed on the payment. of costs— 7s. otlch. FINED FOR SWEARING. P.C. Wm. Davies charged Jenkin Thomas, Mill- street, with using obscene language in Mill-street- on the 19th ult. The constable said that, at 9.10 p.m. on the day in question defendant was using obscene language to- wards his wife in front of a. largo crowd of women and children. After some trouble witness got him into the house. Defendant said that he was annoyed with tho woman and turned her out. of the. house. ho started bullying him outside, and what she told him "of course he had only to replace, nothing more." The Bench were decided to put a. stop as far as they could to the use of that obscene and disgust- ing language in the street, especially before women and children. The fact that lie had quarrelled with his wife was no excuse, and he would be fined 2s. 6d. and 7s. 6d. costs. ADJOURNED BREWSTER SESSIONS THREE HOUSES REFERRED FOR COMPENSA- TIO. Tha adjourned licensing sessions for the Borough were afterwards held before the same magistrates. Applications were made for the renewal of the licenses of the Polican Inn. Bridge-street: the White Horse, Priory-street, and the Coopers' Arms. Lam- mas-street. Mr. W. J. W aliis-Jonea appeared in support of the- two latter applications. SuptJ Thomas Smith said that. with regard to the Pelican, acting under instructions, lie iiad caused notice of objection served on account of the promises not having been properly conducted in the nast. The present licensee was Lydia. Evans, against whom there was no conviction. The previous licensee, Miles Davies, was convicted on June 14th, 1909, for being drunk on his own licensed premises, and fined 5s. and costs. Before that there was no con- viction for some considerable time. Miles Davies had been sent away from the house, and everything waf now gomg on satisfactorily. There had been a conviction against Lydia Evans some years a»o, when she kept, tho Black Horse, Water-street, but she had also kept the MilTord Arms for many years without a conviction. By Mr. J. Wallis-Jonos—Davies was under notice to leave the house whcn he w as convicted. With regard to fhe White Horse. Priory-street, Mr. L. A. H. Harries appeared for the owner, Mr. Alfred Birmingham. The licensee. Mrs. Ann Evans, did not appear. Mr. Thomas TholTlfls said that surely the licence was worth having; she was treating the Bench with scant courtesy. Supr. Smith said that the licensee had been con- victed for ening on Sunday 011 the 8th Feoruary, 1909. and fined 20s. dnd She had been in the house for a number of years, and that was her first offence. The house was a very quiet one. and the licensee wa* » very industrious, hardworking woman, who kept a few cows, and sold the milk The ruan who was found on the premises had been emploved by the licensee, and no doubt il was a slip. Since then there had been nothing to complain of. and the house had been kept well. Mr. Harries thanked the Superintendent for the excellent character he had given the licensee, and formally applied for the renewal of the licence. With regard to the Coopers' Arms. the licensee, David James, had boon convicted with keeping his house open during illegal hours and permitting drunkennes on the 18th October. He was linod ii2 and costs in each case, but since then everything had bc-en satisfactory, (!ro$s-exantined by Ir. Wallis-Jonos—There was accommodation for a great many 1c)(lger. and there was nothing since against the house. By the Bench—Tho licensee was5 homes from Saturday till Tuesday, antl in his absence the house was looked after by his wife and daughter, who were i!1 charge when the offence was committed. Mr. Jones said thai if the licence was renewed the licensee was prepared to give an undertaking to remain at home all tho week. The Bench decided 1 (I renew tin1 three licence-. With regard to the houses ill respect to which structural repairs had been ordered, the Clerk said that sumo of the licensees had started with the work of improving the houses. upr. Smith1—The weal her has been against theiu so far. Mr. Thomas Davies said he did not think people should come and apply for licences unless they were prepared to keep the bourses in proper rep.-tir. Mr. W. J. Wallis-Jones formally applied for the renewal of the licence of the Albion Inn Supt. omirh said that according to instructions, Mr. Thomas Evans, clerk to the justices' clerk, produced the licenses' register. The present tenant was Joseph Davies, and he had the licence granted to him in 1905, and it was last- renewed on the 1st February last year. Supt. Smith said that on the 23rd ult. he visited the house, which was situated in Mill-street some 30 or 50 feet from Dark-gate. It has a frontage of 30 feet. On the right-hand side of the entrance is the bar, 16 feet by 12 feet 6 inches. On the opposite side of the passage is a spare room, 13 feet by 8 feet 6 inches, used by the licensee as a work- shop. Behind the room is a kitchen, 14 feet by 14 feet. Underneath are two large cellars, and there was a wmall pantry behind the bar. Upstairs were a large garrett with three skylights (unfurnished). and four good-sized bedrooms. He thought the family occupied the whole of the bedrooms. There were no back premises at ail to the house, and no side entrance. The sanitary arrangements, to his mind. were bad. There were five windows in the back and rive in the front. There were 12 licensed houses within a radius of five or six hundred yards of that house. The trade was not a large one, and for police supervision the house was good, but, in his opinion, the house was not required. By the Bench—There was 83 or 84 licensed houses in Carmarthen, aU of which were fully licensed. Cross-examined by Mr. WaHis-Jones-That. was the only licensed house in Mill-street, and was in good repair. The licensee conducted the house very well indeed for that neighbourhood, and nothing was known against him. No objection had been given by the sanitary authorities, and there was a good supply of water. In answer to Mr. H. E. B. Richards, he said that it was well conducted for the neighbourhood, be- cause the class of people that frequented it was rough, and they would not get the same decorum there that. they would expect in, say the Bush (laughter). Mr. W. J. Wallis-Jones said that by bringing into the matter such controversial questions athat of the sanitary and structural conditions it would lead to complications with the compensation authorities. He asked that i6»-the licence was referred for compensation it should be done on the gtounds of redundancy alone. The Prince of Wales Inn, Blue-street.—The tenant Michael Murphy went into possession on tho 14th January, 1907. The licence was last renewed on the 1st February, 1909. Supt. Smith said he visited the house on the 23rd February, acting under the magistrates' instructions. Tho house was a small one with 18 feet frontage. It was comprised of five rooms ,and the bar was 11 feet. Behind that was the kitchen, 10 feet by 11 feet. Behind that wa sthe kitchen 10 feet by 10 feet. Attached was a small coalhouse and pantry. There was no stabling accommodation. There were throe bedrooms upstairs, one of which was used as a sitting-room. The house was kept very clean. He did not think there was any accommodation for travellers. They might, be able to put up one traveller at a pinch. Tho sanitary arrangements were bad. The premises for police supervision were good. The house was the smallest, licensed house for accommodation in Blue-street. In his opinion the house was not needed. The nearest licensed houses were the Lark and tho Shin on the opposite side of the road. Cross-examined by Mr. Wallis-Jones—He was pre- pared to take it that. there was one room available for travellers. The sanitary arrangements were in working order, but insufficient, and the house was in good repair. Tho house was conducted quietJy and well. Mr. E. A. H. Harries applied for a renewal of the licence of the Cross Roads Inn, Tanerdv. The present tenant was Miss Elizabeth Richards, to whom the last licence was granted on the 6th July, 1908, on the death of her father, who had held the licence for many years. It was renewed on the 1st February, 1909. Supt. Smith deposed that he visited the Cross Roads Inn on the 23rd ult. The house is a four- roomed house, two rooms downstairs and two up. The rooms downstairs were 14 foot by 12 feet, one each side of the door. The house stood in an isolated position, and on the right of the entrance was a. small kitchen garden running parallel wirh tho high road to Bronwydd. In the garden was an outhouse, and there war. also an old stable in a very dilapidated state, the roof was coming off. There were no stalls in the stable, and the place was used for storing lumber. For police supervision tho house was good. The nearest licensed house was the Farmers' Arms. Tanerdv. about 300 vards awav. The Farmers' Arms was fully licensed, and had standing room for three houses. The sanitary arrangements of the Cross Roads was bad. The neighbourhood was a. thinly-populated one, and, in his opinion, the house was not needed. There had been complaints against the house. Mr. Harries said that the complaint was against the neighbourhood. There was no suggestion against the character of the licence or tenant. By the Bench—The outbuildings were nearly tumbling down, and the house was very old. There was no accommodation for travellers. There was a quiet trade with passers-by. Cross-examined by Mr. Harries—Tho nearest house away from the town was under a mile on the Aber- gwili-road. The thin population was his only reason for saying that, the house was not. needed. On one road the nearest house was five miles. Mr. Thomas Thomas—But youhaye another house within 300 yards. Mr. Harries—But you have to walk tho extra 300 yards to get there. Mr. Thomas—That is if you are thirsty (laughter). In answer to Mr. Harries, Supt. Smith said that if the house was a fine substantial one, with a. big back-yard and good sanitary arrangements, he would not be so disposed to say that the house was not necessary. There was a danger in that, to his mind, that could be overdone. He did not think that any improvements could be made, the house was too small. It was not for him to suggest any improve- ments, Mr. Harries said that ho asked for suggestions because if the sanitary conditions were bad the owners of the property—Jesus College. Oxford—were prepared to make all the necessary repairs. Continuing, Mr. Smith agreed that waggoners, cyclists, etc., called at the house, and that the Dolgwili Brickworks were in the neighbourhood. He did not agree with Mr. Harries that the re- start of the Tinworks would lead to the building of a number of houses near to this house, although! it might make a slight difference in the trade. Mr. Thomas Thomas—There was no room' to build a bigger house or make any large alterations. Mr. Harries said that the field behind the house was owned by the owners of the houso. Addressing the Bench in support, of his applica- tion. Mr. Harries said that the chief objection to the house was that. the sanitary arrangements were not as good as thev might be. He submitted that in a place like that, removed from the town the arrangements were the best that could possibly bo made. If, however, the Bench thought that any improvements could he effected, on behalf of Jesus College, Oxford, the owners ox the property, he was perfectly prepared to carry out any suggestions that the Bench might feel disposed to make. The house had been built by the tenant's grandfather, and she was just, able to make a living by it. The trade was fair, and last year she disposed of 112 barrels of boor, so that if they looked at the volume of trade ihey could not say that the house was un- necessary. If they took away the licence the trado would not be reduced, but would go to another houso, which might not hc/ólo easy of supervision as was tlio Cross Roads, and it would look like giving a monopoly to the other house. If Miss Richards last the licence she could not have a living, and in all probability would become a pauper, and charge- able to the rates. He submitted that the house was wanted, and in all probability would be wanted still more in the future. Mr. Thomas Thomas said that the landlord did not seem to caro a bit about, how the house was. He (tho sneaker) thought it was wrong of the land- lord to invite .people to a house in that state. Mr. Harries said that, the rent had always been low and the tenant undertook to do all the necessary repairs, hut the College carried out all the largo repairs. They had made structural alteration* in 1903 at the request of the Bench. The Bench retired for a short time, and. on their return, the Mayor announced that the Albion, the Prince of Wales, and the Cross Roads Inns would be referred for compensation, while the licences of the other houses were rouewed. The houses rp- ferret! for compensation were granted the usual provisional licences. The Court then rose.

LLANDILO SATI'HDAY, February 26rh.-Bcfon> [,. Thomas, Major Lloyd, and Mr. A. E. DuBuissori. STRAYING COW. Roes Perkins, Cwm, Talley, was charged with allowing a cow to stray on the highway. Defendant said the animal was a little distance before him. The man whom he had employed sent hpr down to diP Llansawel road. whilst he fetched the POllY, Witness thought of catchThg up the man, but the latter had to return on a message to town. P.C. Morgan said that about 2 p.m. on the 14th of this month, he found the cow straying on the Llansawel road near a farm, and turned her into the yard. About 2.30 ho found defendant in Llan- dilo, in RaiHvay-terraee. Defendant said the animal was on the way homo .and that if witness had not interfered she would have gone home all right. Defendant was fined Is. and costs, the Chairman remraking that it was a very dangerous thing to ailow animals to stray on the highway. NON-MAINTENANCE. Thomas Francis, Pontregwanlais, was dharged with neglecting his child. Mr. David Evans, master of tho workhouse, said defendant's child, Johnny Francis, was in the Work- house, and had been there during the last six months. Defendant had previously been before the Bench in 1908. The magistrates then gave him a month to take the child out- or pay 7s. 6d. a week towards its maintenance. He was a widower. Another child was with defendant's- mother-in-law. He had not contributed anything towards the dlihr maintenance. He was an able-bodied man, working most of his time. He had been working for months and months on the Tregeyb new road. Questioned by the Bench, defendant said he was earning 24s. a week when working full time. During the last days he had been working in a quarrv. He had tried, but unsuccessfully, to get someone to look after the child, who would be 14 years of age next January. The reason he had not contributed towards the child's maintenance was that he had been paying off old debts. He had paid over jB7 since last summer. Major Lloyd—That is a very easy wav of keeping a family. Defel;dant-I coultl not pay during that time. The Clerk We are now at the end of the winter. Defendant-I am willing to pay from to-day. The Clerk—You made that promise before, but didn't fulfil it. Defendant—Yes. The C'krk- You promised 7s. 6d. a week in Octo- ber. 1908. Defendant x hope. you will give me one more chance. The Chairman said that the result of enquiries went to show that he was a hopless character. He had made promises over and over tgafn. He would have to pay £2.now, or go to gaol for a month. Defendant made a further appeal, and, replying to the Behch, said that in the way of furniture he had a few chairs and a bed. He could not sav that he had £5 worth. He had only worked 21 days that week. He had been some time there under arrest. He had only 10s. in his pocket that day. The Chairman—How soon can you pay the £2? Defendant—In a fortnight's time. Eventually he was allowed a fortnight, and re- minded by the Chairman that he was not dealing with the guardians now but the Bench. ALLEGED FALSE PRETENCES.

He said he was going to the station. She had not seen him since until now. when she saw him in custody. She believed his statement, as to his having had employment with Mr. Griffiths, otherwise she would not have taken him in as a lodger. Prisoner had no question to ask. Mr. Rees Griffiths, Bridge-street, Llandilo, pro- prietor of a motor garage, said he employed work- men. On Friday prisoner called on witness seeking work, but he had no vacancy. It was not true to say that he obtained employment from him. He saw him after leaving work about 7 p.m. P.S. Peter Jones said that at 5.30 p.m. on the 23rd ult., ho received prisoner into custody, he having been arrested at Llanrhv.styd, near Aber- ystwyth. Witness told prisoner that a warrant had been issued for his apprehension for obtaining food and lodging by false pretences on the "18th and 19th of February from Mrs. Stephens. In reply prisoner said, es; I had food and lodgings there, but I intended to pay the woman when I had money." Defendant was then formally charged with ob- taining food and lodgings, to the value of 2s. 9d., by false pretences. Defendant said in rpply-I meant to pay the lady back as soon as I had money.

Too old at Forty Not feeling so young now" many a man remarks when he reaches his "forties." Not so active, not so keen mentally; limbs feels stiff and rusty, his back aches, and his hands tremble. This failing at forty is wrong and is a sign of early decay—almost always caused by bad blood. Good Biood is the essence of a man's strength and sound nerves. Dr. VVilliams Pink Pills for Pale People create the Rich..New Blood that makes men active and fit for work or recreation. These pills repair the ravages wrought by illness, overwork and worry. Mr. F. Lambert, 9. Albert Road, Aston, Bir- mingham. says :—" I fell a prey. at forty, to Nervous Disorders. Dizziness and headaches attacked me. with symptoms of sluggish liver aperients only made me worse. A nerve specialist ordered rest, so I took a long holiday as well as medicine, but got worse and aged rapidly. Any exertion made me perspire, and mental effort put my brallt in a turmoil. I slept badly, never feeling rested, and awoke in the mornings dull and irritable. "The report of a cure by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills led me to try them, and soon my nerves were composed. As I pcrsevered with the Pills I grew stronger my appetite improved, and food did me good. I soon became energetic and strong. My head was clear, my nerves steady, and I slept well at nights. All traces of nervousness and weakness yielded to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I have enjoyed good health since then."
