None of the other children noticed this, but a stranger who was coming from the cricket ground, saw tho little girl was in trouble, and he immediately went into the river up to his knees and bought her safely to the bank. The child appeared to be in a very exhausted condition, and in a few minutes her mother arrived on the scene, and she was immediately taken home. ACCIDENT AVERTED.—On Sunday morn-1 ing a motor car was coming from tho direction of Bettwsycoed, and when near the Black Horse corner, a pony attached to a governess car, with some or four occupants, was coming from an opposite direction.

Unluckily for Mr Troell, this is the second time that this landau has been smashed up, and ill is only a short time ago that an action was hoard in tho county court respect- ing it, when the two back wheels were severed by running into tho station gate post.

PRESTATYN.
PRESTATYN. THE LIGHT RAILWAY.—It cfjpears that the project for a light railway between Prestatyn a'n<1 Rhyl is not dead. The Town Clerk of Rhyl reports having received a letter from a gentleman in Romiley, Stockport, enquiring as to the possibility of re-starting the scheme. The Town Clerk has lent him a copy of the provi- sional order, and referred him to the Board of Trade. It will be remembered that the scheme was sanctioned by the Board of Trade, and it included a tramway through Rhyl, provision being made by the Rhyl Council to supply elec- tricity, but owing to want of capital it was not pushed through. If the sea continues to make the same inroads during the next few years at Rhyl as it haa done in the past, the old line of railway will have been taken by Davy Jones.

DEATH OF MRS EVANS, PLAS ARFON.- It is with sincere regret we have to chronicle the death of Mrs Evans, Plas Arvon, which took place in the early hours of Tuesday morn- ing. Mrs Evans had been ail ng for some months, but was at all times cheerful under the most trying circumstances, tho news of her death was received by 'ich and poor with the sincerest regret. She was a faithful member of the Jerusalem C.M. Chapel, and her contribu- tions towards the cause and building fund were on a lavish scale. By her death the poor have lost a truo and sincere friend-ono who was always ready to givo a helping hand when needed-and what she gave she gave willingly and heartily. It might be said of her that she luliilled the Master's injunction, "But when thou doest alms let not thy left hand know what thv right hand dooth." We offer our heart-felt condolence with Mr Evans and Miss Jones, and all the family in their sad bereavement. The funeral, we understand, will take place on Friday next, the interment taking place at the Dwygyfylchi Cemetery.
