THE CAbLd OF HOOLIGANISM IN…
THE CAbLd OF HOOLIGANISM IN -1 BLUE STBEET. Edv. aixl Phillips, David Evans, and Stanley Jones, all of Mill street, and aged about 16, were charged with assaulting the police, and Elizabeth 1)hillip3, mother of the boy Phillips, and vvilliam iizniiett, also of Mill street were charged with obstructing the police. Mr H. B. "Vvhite appeared for the two Phiiipps. Some of the cases had been adjourned since last Monday. P.C. Llewelyn said: About 10.30 p.m. on the 2/th of last month, I was going down Blue street on my beat, and was attacked by n crowd of big boys, numbering about 50. They t4,rew stones at-me, several of which struck me. I saw the defendant, Phillips, throw an old bucket, which struck me in the chest. He was inside the garden of Island- row, which is separated from the road by a low wall. I took him into custody, and after that I was seriously pelted with stones. On the way up to the police station, the defend- ant Evans threw a big stone which struck me on my left side. A little further on Mrs Phillips came and tried to rescue her son, tearing my tunic, throwing down my helmet, which was kicked by the crowd. The crowd generally, including the defendants, attacked me. Evans caught hold of my legs, and .ti ipped me. Mrs Phillips was also taken into custody by me. Then Barnett came on, and < tried to rescue.the others by catching hold of my arm. He told me to let Phillips go, or he would knock my head off (laughter). When lie saw P.C. Jones coming he ran away. My whistle was torn away from me and stolen. I have not seen it since. In front of Mr D. R. Morgan's shop Jones came from behind, kicked me seriously on the knee, and then ran away. The three were taken to the lock-up. Mrs Phillips and her son were taken from Blue street, and Evans was taken when near to the police-station. By Mr Thomas Thomas: I did not use my staff. By Mr White To my knowledge there was no personal grudge against me on the part of these boys. It was a dark night. T did not find the lad in the disused closet with his clothes off. I did not tell him what I had arrested him for until he got to the police station. When I caught him he said "I won't do it again." I was not excited when in the crowd, but I had to be a bit sharp. Cross-examined as to his ability to identify people in the crowd, witness said he had no doubt about who assaulted him. Mr C. W. Jones You have no reason to think those boys were drunk?—No, sir. By the Bench I was marked on the body, but did not go to see a medical man. I blew my whistle, but only one blow I had, because my whistle was snatched away. P.C. David Jones said On the Saturday night in question I heard a whistle and ran down. By the Foundry I saw a large crowd. Llewelyn was there with Phillips and his mother in custody. I took the woman from him and took her to J:lie police station. She resisted all the way, and I received several kicks from the crowd. Llewelyn looked as though he had been roughly handled—as though he had been on the ground—with his helmet all dusty. At the- police station I noticed that his clothes had been damaged. I recognised no one in the crowd except Phillips and her son. T saw Mr John Morp-an -r=)- the grocer, there at the start. Cross-examined by Mr White He could not identify anyone who kicked him. The tunic and helmet were then handed to the Bench. The former was said to be torn and the lining of the helmet ripped away. Elizabeth Phillips, was then put into the box and said I was called out of my house 17, Mill street, by a man named Thomas, and went down Chequer's Alley, and saw my boy in the custody of the constable. I shouted to the officer and asked him what my son had done. He made no reply, but took hold of me. I did not tctfich the officer's coat. I was taken to the lock-up and detained till about half-past twelve. My boy is employed by Mr Norton. Edward Phillips, son of the last witness, said I did not throw a bucket at the con- stable. At that time I was in the closet in Island-row. There were other boys in the yard. The constable same to me, and told me to dress and come on. I said "What for" and he said I should see. I did not know what for until I got to the police station. I deny I touched him with the bucket at all. By the Clerk I was not seen in Lammas st. before this with other boys. The closet is not a disused one. By P.C. Llewelyn: I did not go to our own closet because I had just come up from the Quay. Evan Llewelyn Evans, aged 12 last April, living at Friar's Park, was put into the box, and after being questioned as to his know .ledge of the truth, was allowed to give evi- dence. The Clerk said he had given evidence in a case some time before: Witness said: I was on tue Quay at 10.30 p.m., and saw Teddy Phillips. A crowd of boys collected there. Sidney Thomas kicked the helmet, and Willie Jones tripped the constable. The constable had been 011 the ground before Mrs ¡ Phillips came on, and his hat had been kicked. When the bucket came over the wall Teddy Phillips was in the w.c. There were no boys in the yard where the closet was, except Teddy Phillies. By the Mayor I saw the boy trip up the constable, although it was dark. By the Clerk It was Mrs Phillips who used to take me in when my mother was unkind to me. Margaret Rees, wife of John Rees, deposed to hearing Mrs Phillips asking what her son had done. William Barnett elected to give evidence, and said he told Phillips about the w.c. re- ferred to, and saw him there afterwards. Afterwards he heard the disturbance and saw Llewelyn on his back. Hearing the constable calling ior help'in the King's name e gave the constable his arm and helped him up. That is all he knew of the case. He also saw Phillips in the w.c. and Llewelyn telling him to come with him. He stated that he went to the station between the time of first seeing Llewelyn and seeing him on the ground. ° By the Bench: He had not been to a public house that evening. By the Clerk: He did not associate with these boys. The Clerk But you directed him to the w.c. That I suppose was a mere kindly act to a stranger. Mary Anne Evans, stepmother of David Evans, said the latten was in the house that evening, and did not join the crowd until it was by the Brewery lane. He was readme for threequarters of an hour before the row began. He was not near the Foundry. Stanley Jones was also sworn, and denied that he knew anything about the row except that he saw the crowd and followed it up. The Clerk The constable seems to have picked out the only four innocent ones in the crowd. Mr White urged that the case had been greatly exaggerated. The Bench had seen the tnnic and helmet, and he thought thev would agree that there was nothing much the matter with them. After the Bench had retired for a few minutes, the Mayor addressing the defendants Edward Phillips, Evans, Barnett, and Stan- ley Jones, said We arc convinced that you inteifered with and behaved very badly towards the police constable, and we are determined to put a stop to this. I am very sorry, Barnett, to see you here. You ought to have gone to the rescue of the constable, and have assisted him to restore ouipf <"Rav dM.sir)- You Avili be fined 10s each and Mrs Phillips will be fined 5s and costs.

MR MORGAN RICHARDSON AND THE COUNCIL. The Cierk read the following letter from Mr Morgan Richardson Cardigan, 8th August, 1„04. Dear Sir, Re Sewer Encroachment. I have received your letter of the 6th inst., and I am quite satisfied with the explanation received from the Council. At the same time, I thilb they should make arrangements with .he G.W.R. Co. to run the sewerage on to the boundary of the Company's property, otherwise it would form a cesspool, which would be offensive to adjoining owners, and a source of danger to the village. I certainly object .0 the formation of such a pool, and must reserve my action in the matter until this condition has been complied with. Yours faithfully, C. MORGAN RICHARDSON. Henry Lewis, Esq., Clerk to the Whitland Rural District Council, Narberth. Mr D. Jenkins, Sanitary Inspector, said that the sewer only required an extension of three or four feet so as to run it out to the boundary of the Graet Western Railway, and that had be been aoie to get the masons, he would nave laid the three or four pipes down in cement there this week. Mr Rees Davies said he had met an official of the Great Western Railway that morning who stated that they were going to make a large culvert there, and make a road in by the citation House, for coal and culm, so as to do away with the crossing traffic as at present. Mr D. Davies, Maengwyn, proposed that the v.el'k be instructed to write to Mr Morgan Richardson to that effect.—This was agreed b

St. rkars Agrieniioral Show,…
St. rkars Agrieniioral Show, | Th a twenty-six annual agricultural show was held at St. Clears on Friday. The St. Clears gricalfcural Society as will be gathered from its age is one of the old established fix- tures of the county, and in spite of the numerous shows which are '/springing up en every side, the "old firm" manages to hold its own pretty well. There are many larger shows in the connty, and there are shows where ono department or another excels, but at St. Clears there is a general, all round average of excellence which it would be diffi- cult to beat. If there is one department 111 which bu. Clears can hold its own against all comers, it is in the matter of black cattle. The Mydrim and Llanboidy districts which are within easy reach are able to compete against all comers in this respect. There were only two aged black bulls shown; but these were good massive animals of the right type. The first prize was awarded to Mr J. Scourfield's "Lloffwr," a well known prize winner, which also won the champion prize of a challenge cup. There was only one exhibit in the year- ling class—Mr Henry Davies's "Black Prince II"—but it was well worthy of the prize. There was a good entry of cows, and the first and secpnd prize winners—owned by Messrs Owen, Hafod and Mr Phillip Thomas, Gcrse, respectively—were well ahead of the others. There was an exceptionally good lot of heifers. This was the finest class of blacks on the field, and every one of them was well worthy of a prize. "Olwen," the property of Messrs Mcrris, Wernberney, was placed first by the judges, and was also "reserve" for the chal- lenge cup. There was a nice lot of young stock, particularly bull calves. The judges were really unable to decide in the. milking cow class between the exhibits of Mr J. W. Harries, Pilroatli and Mr Richard Thomas, Groat Pale. TJiey therefore divided the prizes between the two but Mr J. W. Harries let the first prize go to Mr Richard Thomas. There was also a very good entry of short- horn cattle, and excellent quality was shown in the two bull classes. The champion prize was awarded to the yearling owned by Sir A. C. Stepney. The bull calves and the yearling heifers were good well filled classes. There was a very large entry of horses, totalling nearly 200. An exceedngly satis- factory class was that for cart horses. The brood mare—the property of Mr Henry Davies, Cowin Grove—which took first prize, was an exceptionally fine animal, and well de- served the challenge cup which it won. The second prize winner—belonging to Mr Wm. Davies, Wern, Bankyfelin- was a very use- ful mare. The suckers were a nice class, and there was very little to choose between the two first. Mr J. Wynford Philipp's "Brown- slade Belle," was an easy winner. Some very good hunters were exhibited, and Messrs James, Travelyrych, Mydrim, won the chal- lenge cup with a seven year old mare as this is the second time they have won it, the trophy becomes their property outright. A public luncheon was held in a tent on the show field in the afternoon. Mr R. H. Harries M.F.H., the president of the society, occupied the chair. After the usual loyal toasts had been pro- posed by the Chairman, and duly honoured, the Chairman proposed the toast of "The Judges." He said that he would sooner face a six-barred gate than make a speech, but lie wished to say that he congratulated the society on having secured the services of such excellent iuderes. Mrs Roch said that she was very much obliged to them for the way in which they had drunk her health, which she was happy to say was at the present time very good. The hackney foals were the best she had ever seen the winner was fit to be seen at any show. Mr T. Thomas, Cow bridge, said that this was the first time he had had the pleasure of judging with a lady, but he hoped it would not be the last. Mr T. E. Thomas, Trehale, said that he was glad that they had had such fine weather which had brought the ladies out with all their grand hats and finery. The black cattle were not very numerous but they were very good. They were so good in one class that he and his colleague could not agree. Now they had joined with the North Wales Herd Book, his recommendation to them was not to go to North Wales to buy cattle. He did not think that they would improve their stock if they did. He was positive that it would do a lot of good to North Wales, if the breeders came down here and bought a lot of Castle- martins to cioss with their stock. Mr W. E. Evans, Robeston Hall, said that he di I not agree with what Mr Thomas had said. He thought that if they got some of the best specimens from North Wales they would improve their cattle. There WHO breeders in North Wales who could give them some very useful tips. Mr J. R. Thomas said that he rind 1 ecu asked to decide between the two judges of the black cattle. He pointed out which animal he would like to buy; but he did not say it was the best. Mr Owen Philipps proposed the toast of the President. Some people thought that there were too many local shows but he was one of those who, thought that it was impossible to have too many local shows. The best proof of that was the fact that at the bio- "hmv at. Carmarthen, the tenant farmers had beaten the gentlemen. These local shows induced farmers to begin by competing with their neighbours. He was told by one of the largest breeders of black cattle that if he brought now to the show such an animal as five years ago won first prize; the judges would not look at it. There could be no better proof than that of the fact that these local shows tended to improve the breed of cattle. He thought. that the great thing was not to have animals with long horns or short horns, but animals that would produce a good price. He had great pleasure in proposing the health of the President, hey could not have a better man across country nor a better judge of a hunter. The Chairman, after thanking them for the manner in which his health had been drunk, said that he regarded these small shows as the 1'. 1 (1 reeders tor the big shows. Mr W. S. G. Morris, Coombe, proposed the toast of the Secretary, which was duly honoured, and the proceedings terminated. The following were the Judges: Hunters and hackneys, Mrs Roch, Plasybridell; Mr Thomas Thomas, Bear Hotel, Cowbridge; Cart horses, Mr J. R. Jones, Trwst Llewelyn, Montgomery; Black cattle and pigs, Mr T. E. Thomas, Trehale and Mr W. E. Evans, Robeston Hall, Milford; Shorthorn cattle and sheep, Mr H. W. Thomas, Benallt, Pontar- dulais, and Mr J. R. Thomas, Towyn Pem- brey; Dairy produce, -uiss Annie Thomas, Towyn, Pembrev. The stewards were: Hunters, etc., Mr T. L. Harries, Penybont; Mr Fred Phillips, Caer- lleon; Cart horses, Mr John Carver, Tre- cadwgan; -.r John Lewis, Trerhose; Black cattle and pigs, Mr D. Howells, Pant; Mr Phillip Davies, Blaencorse; Shorthorn cattle and sheep, Mi, T. S. Morse, Maesgwrda; Mr H. L. Harries, Mylett; Dairy produce, Mr J. Davies, Llwynpiod, St. Clears. The field stewards were Mr John Lewis, C.C., and Mr Herbert L wis, Pentre Farm. T*le secretarial duties were ably discharged by Mr W. Harries, of the Railway Hotel, who nas filled the office with great success for the last eleven years. A featiii-e of the field was the large number of tents of various firms. Messrs Thorlev were represented by Mr J. Crossman, Blue street, Carmarthen; Messrs Stephen Pettifer and Son, by Mr Frizell; and Messrs Day, Son, and Hewitt, by Mr Matthias.

-------Pantglas Hounds.
Pantglas Hounds. These hounds, which began their cubbing opera- tions on the 16th of August, have up to the present date had plenty of sport. Scent has not been reaily good until the 2nd inst., when the meet was at Abersaman, and although the hour of meeting was an early one, 5.30 a.m., a considerable number of f»eople put in their appearance, including several adies. Hounds were lirst put into Kiltherry Covert, and almost immediately had a cub on its fet. A strong litter was evidently here, as several cubs were viewed, including an old fox which went away. After an hour and a half of nice hunting hounds marke i him to ground in Cwmyscyfarnog Coverf. Picks and shovels were requisitioned, and with the help of the terriers a good cub yielded up hia life. A second cub in the same earth was given his liberty, and after some 30 minutes hunting, was chased to ground and left there. Foxes in the district appear very plentiful, hounds having found strong litters at every place they have met so far. -éI-

103 Last Birthday,
103 Last Birthday, A REMARKABLE OLD LADY. About half a mile from the picturesque village T Jd}'ftU' ln, tne Valley, near P< £ t lalbot, there stunds n neat little newlv-boilt cottage, known as Rose Cottage, on the roadside leading to the Cymla and henoe to Neath. In this cottage there resides with her soa and daughter-in- law (Mr and Mrs. John Thomas) an oid lady, named Mary Thomas, who on the 25th of March last celebrated her one hundred and third birthday. One nas to remain in the company of the old lady but a few minutes to see her bright smile, to hoar her hearty laughter, and lisen to her powerful voice relating in lear accents incidents of her life's history, and to slaud ia amazement a: the instru- ment ot these faculties being a human being neanujr the age ot 18i years, lhe old lady possesses a faultless memory, perfect sight, and a splendid appetite, and can move about her rooin by her own efforts. Beyond &n occasional attack of rheumatism, her daughter in-law informed a Press representative, she could not see the slightest difference in the old ladv for the L-ast ttventy year?, When it was eug-veeté'ii i,I,iLt the rsntloman wants to take your picture," the old In-lv nodded and smiled with evident delight, and immediately adjusted uer bonnet, and smoothed down h-r s, I' te-Y locks, and entered into the full spirit of the etent at the end remarking laughingly, « Mind the picture is good-looking," One of the party present remarked, Are vou thinking of getting married again, Si's Thomas f" "I might, if I g-;t the chance," she replied humorously, and addiug smartly, Mind yon, it's leap yeir." «rL8Ub?eqUen!: Ci'flrir8ar--or1 proved interesting What is the first thing you remember, Mrs Thoinns," queried the interviewer. The old lady paused pensively. Well," she said, the very first thing I remember clearly was when I was four years of age going for a walk with my grandmother, Margaret Davies, at Carmarthen. Slin w.%i, thert 100 year.* ot age, and walked without a stick, leading me by the hand." Ia reply to further questions, the old lady said she distinctly remembered the battie of Waterloo, although there was not much known about it beyond the fact of the victory. She remembered it more particularly because of the 1, press gang coming round and taking two of her uncles to the war," Such events as the Crimea War and the coronation of Queen Victoria she remembers clearly. Of the family there are at present five generations living. She has had two husbands and eight children, the eldest of whom, Mary Davies, died some eight months ago in California at the age of 82 yearp. Her youngest son, with whom she lives, is Mr Juhn Thomas, the Woollen Factory, Pontrhydyfen, whose age is 69 years. Mr. Thomas is a nauve of Carmarthen, but has resided for 35 years in Glamorgan.
Ponies Roasted Alive at Llandovery.
Ponies Roasted Alive at Llan- dovery. DISCOVERY ON THE RAIL\\ AY. Three valuable Shetland ponies, whilst in transit on the London and North Western Railway from Aberdeen to a South WaJes station were roasted alive on Saturday. It appears that the animals were conveyed to Sooth Wales by tho sroods train leaving Shiews- bury at four e.m. They were in thrie sepirate crates, and all piaued in the same van, the upper put of the latter bearing slider.4, which had been drawn aside for yentilation purposes. On the train's arrival at LLmdnerv, about ten o clock, Mr Thomas, the stationmaater," and Signal- man Walters detected smoke issuing fcom one of the vans, labelled Litc stock." Ths Tan was taken down the yard ard the hose-pipe attached Without delay, and th9 Arc was put cut iu a few minutes. Unfortunately, however, on opening the van doors, only the charred remains of the onimals were found. It is surmised that in going through the tunnel between Llanwrtyd and Llandovery sparks from the engine ignited the st'aw deposited in the van. t
Weather and the Crops.
Weather and the Crops. August was a fine hkrvest month, and the wheat harvest was ceu pleled in nearly all the chief counties before its close. The rainfall 1-7L inches was under the arersgc. without showing anything r nsn ? bC CS[1*d d,ou £ fat- The sonsl ine record for 240 hours wss excellent, and oniy seemed moderate. ,5 coming after the great record of 261 hours in July. The mean temperature 59 degrees, was one degree bel.ow the average, as the Bights were very cool for the tin e of the year, and from the 6th to the 26tb. Th, dsys were fresh and breezy, but by no meais hoi. The opening of the month was brilliantly fine, end so were the 27th 28.h a,d 29th uIt. The do. of the month was marked by th tJ uderstorms, and Septembar has thus far been deciJedJy showery with an autumnal feeling in the air. 1 he condition of new wheat delivered has been slightly affected by the mora humid atmosphere, but there is no occasion to hurry the new wheat upon the market. The latter is gradually rising, and should be given time to get well above a 30s. level.—From Monday's Mark Lane Express.
