LLANDUDNO'S TRIBUTE.
LLANDUDNO'S TRIBUTE. The prccent Lord Mostyn and his predecessors in the title have, as is well-known, contributed very largely towards the uncommon success achieved in the development of Llandudno. Nevertheless, it is to the present holder of the title that the town owes the greatest debt. It has been his lordship's good fortune to grow up with the town, so to sneak. He has personally followed every step in its history from a time when its streets were planned in the modest shelter of as old bathing van till to-day, when it has reached a position pre-eminent amongst Welsh seaside resorts. We noed scarcely dilate upon the share he has taken in the attainment of this remarkable result. The facts are already sufficiently well-known. However, were evidence wanting, it could be found in abundance on Mondays for young and old throughout tho entire town, gladly availed themselves of the opportunity afforded by the eommg-of-agc of his lord.ship's heir, to mark their sense of unqualified satisfaction witn the noblo lord's past efforts on their behalf. In- deed, a more glowing tribute to the popularity of an individual—it must, of course, be con- ceded that the Hon. Edward Mostyn on this occasion reaped that which had been sown by his noblo father,—than that which Llandudno aecorded Lo-rd Mostyn this week could not well be imagined. Comfng-of-age celebrations all the world over have much in common as far as merry-making is concerned, but there was a whole-hearted joyous nets and genuine sincerity about Monday's festivities. It was the spon- taneous manifestation of the sentiments of a &atL,f,zl public. l,oi-d M(,- ,styli ir-ay well feel proud of the place he occupies in the hearts cf the people. His popular and very promising son may be equally proud of so worthy an ex ample to emulate.

EDITORIAL CHAT.
EDITORIAL CHAT. Last week, attention was called at the Con- way Town Council meeting to what was termed the placing of undue responsibilities on the old borough by certain of our daily contemporaries. It was pointed out that whenever a bathing or other accident happened on the "Conway shore." Llandudno, tho newspapers referred to placed it to the account of Cunway, when, as a matter of fact, tile shore in question forms no part of Con- way. As bathing accidents are rarely heard of in the borough, the inhabitants naturally re- sent this undeserved notoriety, and their feel- ings on the matter were still more pronounced on Tuesday, when, on nearly every hoarding throughout the place appeared an announce- ment of "A Shocking Bathing Fatality at Con- way." As a matter of fact, the accident re- ferred to took place in Llandudno. » The Harvard-Cambridge beat race has been t'ne .all-absorbing topic discussed during the last few days. Now that Britishers have finished jubilating over the victory of their own crew, it is interesting to recall the famous race be- tween Oxford and Harvard cox'nd fours, which was rowed on .Augu.-t 27th. 186t1. The Ameri- cans won the toss, and chose the Middlesex side of the river. A start was made soon after five o'clock in the evening, and a great race ensued to Hammersmith Bridge, where the visiting four, who had started forty-five strokes to the minute to Oxford's forty, led by four-fifths of a length. Darbishire, the home stroke, who did not un- duly bustle his men, rowed a waiting race, mado his effort at Chiswiek Eyot, passed his plucky opponents there, and led the way to the finish. Oxford winning liy four lengths in 22 min. 19 sec. This event was of peculiar interest to North Waliarts inasmuch as the Oxford stroke was the late Dr. Darbishire, a brother of Colonel C. H. Darbishire. of Penmacmnawr. who still has tho oars used oil the occasion in his posses- sion. In the twelfth of a series of articles in "The Tribune" on the encroachment of the sea around tho British coast, "BAY." deals at considerable length with the history of the Welsh coast. The etory of the lost littoral of Wales, he eays, is a story of repeated and dramatic disaster, little hindered by the ingenuity of mn in constructing defences a-gainst the chronic encroachments of tho sea. The article concludes with the follow- ing remarks :—Mr Lloyd George recently referred in Parliament to the damage being sustained by the coast of this neighbourhood. Only last winter the embankments in Flintshire, and especially at Rhyl, suffered extremely, the stone wall having been torn away and tossed about like wooden planks. It is this embankment which protects the line of railway from Car- I narvon to Chester. Were the sea once to make I itsolf complete master here it would flood the lailvvay and cause wholesale destruction, not easy and perhaps impossible, to repair. Amongst the illustrations is one depicting the damage done to the sea wall erected by the late Captain Keatingo at. the oast end of the Rhyl foreshore and showing how the land beyond has been eaten away. The illustration is from a photo by Mr T. Wills Jones, Rhyl. The Kleeneezi Company, who have leased one of the Corporation quarries, are apparently in- tent upon opening up an extensive industry at Conway. Under the terms of their agreement ith the Town Council, they ai-c bo,,i-?id to em- wi ploy at least 50 men regularly, and we are in- formed that in the course of a short time that number will be substantially increased. The stone quarries has much in common" with that produced at the Penmaenmawr Quarries. Tnc material is shaped into cubes approaching the shapo of ordinary setts, but for what purposo they a-re used docs not transpire. This week a. considerable quantity have been "railed" to Liverpool, whence they will be shipped to Dur- ban, South Africa.. As soon as the necessary arrangements have been completed, the goods will bo shipped from the town quay to Liver- pool, as tlilav method of transit will be more economical. And it is gratifying to hear that the promoters of the scheme have already booked ti, -) keei) thei' v;cld engagert for ,ffic;oiit orders t, many months. Tlio letting of the quarry has given great satisfaction to the townspeople inas- much as the opening of a new industry must necessarily have a wholesome effect upon the trade of the borough.
Personal and Social.
Personal and Social. Tho Lord-Lieutenant of Anglesey (Sir R. II. Williams-Bulkelcy, Bart.) has left Baron Hill, Beaumaris, on a yachting cruise. Tho Countess of Powis has arrived at Serlby Hall, Bawtry, Yorks, on a visit to Viscount and Viscountess Galwa.y, who arc entertaining a party for the Doncaster race meeting. Mr Lloyd George is one of the few Cabinet Ministers in town just now. The right hon. gentleman was in attendance at the Board of Trade on Tuesday. Mr David Jones (unattached teacher for Car- narvonshire) has declined the post of Normal and Agricultural Master in British Guiana, offered him by the Colonial Office on tho recommenda- tion of Principal Reichel. The post carries WlLll it a salary of £430. The Duchess of Westminster, who is at Eaton Hall, contracted a severe chill while crossing the channel, after attending tho Dublin Horse Show, and has sinco been confined to bed. On Tues- day, her grace was better, but severo neuralgia continues, and some days must elapse before sho is able to leave her room.

Hope, when Mi as Catherine Elizabeth Jenkins, daughter of Mrs Jenkins-Thomas, of Mentonc, Colwyn Bay, was united to Mr Henry Herbert Al- dred, veterinary surgeon, of Chester.

Colwyn Bay's Gas Undertaking.
Colwyn Bay's Gas Under- taking. A SUCCESSFUL VENTURE. INTERESTING FACTS TOLD THE LOCAL. GOVERNMENT BOARD INSPECTOR. Mr M. K. North, M. Inst. C.E., pre- sided over an inquiry at tho Colwyn liay Council Chamber, on Tuesday morning, with reference to an application ni&do to the Local Government Board for sanctio-n to borrow £100 for the erection of a oer- tain public convenience, and a further sum of £17,000 for gas purposes. James Amphlett (the solicitor clerk to the Council) conducted the proceedings for tho Authority. Amongst tho Council- lors present were the deputy chairman (Mr Jos. Dicken), Rev. W. Hughes, Messrs. Geo. Bevan, John Williams, E. H, Davi:s, Hugh Evans (Mochdre), with the assistant clerk (Mr Jos. H. Roberts), the surveyor (Mr Wm. Jones), the ga.s manager (Mr Pennington), and ether officials. Mr AmphJntt explained at tho outset that the population of the district at the IélGt census was 8,689. At present it was esti- mated to be 12,000 normally, and 30,000 during the summer months. The assessable value was £ 07,843, and the area of the district came to 5,541 acres. The outstand- ing loans for sanitary purposes (including tho«<j for water and electric light tinder- takings) amounted to £ 89,851. The gener- al district rate a.t present was 5s Gd in the this including the water rate. The poor and education rates were about 2s Gel in the C. The Council asked for a period of thirty years in which to repay the first mentioned loan, and forty years the larger amount. Ther,-» was no opposition to the first ap- plication, and thi3 work already carried out was explained bv the Surveyor, WORKS WORTH DOUBLE THE ORIGINAL AMOUNT. Mr Amphlett, dealing with the loan for the gas undertaking, stated that the Coun- cil's intention was to provide the gas works with a railway siding in front, so as to facilitate the bringing in of cool and the taking away of residuals. Tho works were of considerably dimensions, and there was a feeling in the to-wn that the residuals which were now being carted through the district, proved a source of annoyance, which should be immediately removed, a great many serious complaints to that effect having been received by the Council. The siding would be erected on lands be- longing to the L. and N.W.R. Company, while the promoted coal stone and other works would be carried out on the Coun- cil's property, with the small exception of a retaining wall between Company's property and that of the Council, which would be situated on the Company's land. With regard to the siding an agreement had been approved by both the Council and the Comnany. and everything was now completed and would by formallv settled provided the 1..0rn1 Government Board would sanction the loan now applied for. should. however, explain that the HaiJ- war Company wanted the Council to de- posit the sum of £3280, inasmuch as tho Company insisted upon constructing the sidinnr themselves. Speaking of the nseful- 110c;c p.f th-e siding rrpnrrrdte Mr Amphlett, the Council considered that it would be a most remunerative as well as a useful one, inasmuch as tll¡."> cost of cartage at present was very considerable. The works had naturally and very properly teen erected at a distance of two miles from tho town, and all the coal used had to be carted there from the Colwyn Bay station. The expenditure thus incurred on cartage would bo saved, and, by agreement, the Railway Company had undertaken not to increase tho siding rates under the new conditions. The gas works were rapidly mcreasmg in. output and otherwise, and tho whole undertaking proved a most re- muiorative one in the hands of tlie Coun- cIl; it was, in fact, a very valuable 8;.E(, to tho town, as the whole of the outstand- ing debts in connection with the works at present amounted to f 89,205 onlv wh-pei- as if the works were put on the market and sola as similar undertakings were b, ventumd, to say they woukT fetch pretty wel] double that amount. THE GAS MANAGER'S ELOQUENT FIGURES. Mr Pennington, the gas manager, then gave a detailed description of the work to be carried out. Dealing with the growth of the gas under- taking Mr Pennington supplied the follow- patellarsIn December, 1JUU, said, tlie gas mains measured al- together 10 miles 356 yards; this year they covered a distance of miles—an in- crease of 10 miles 524 yards. In 1900, the motors in use numbered G45 of the ordinary variety, against 779 in 190G-—an in- crease of 134. The slot meters in 1900 numbered 299; this year there were 1,117— an incn;aso of 818. The "cookers" sunolied in 1900 were 258 in number: in 1906 they were 849-an increase of 591. The number of public lamps in 1900 was 182; to-day there were 285-an increase of 103 in six years. There were 784 consum- ers of gas in 1900 and 1,574 in 1900--an increase of 790, whereas tho amount of gaa made in 1900 was 35,282,000 cubic feet, and in 190G, 55,760,000 cubic feet—an increase of 20,478,000 cubic feet. SUCCESS OF THE UNDERTAKING. Wh.:1I the Council purchased the works from the lata Gas Company, the price of the gas was as follows: Domestic and pub- lic lighting, 4s 2d per 1,000 cubic ket; cooking, heating and power, as 4d per 1,000 cubic f(t.}t. Within the last two years the Council had reduced the cost of domestic lighting by lOti per 1,000; public lighting by 2s 4d per 1,000; and, in addition, they had this year voted tli-3 sum of £.jJ tor tho lighting, cleaning, repairs and mainten- ance of the public lamps throughout the district. "These figures," said Mr Pennington modestly, II in tlt opinion of tlie Gas Com- mittee, show the undertaking to be in a. sound financial condition, and they liavo every reason to believe that this state of things will continue for some years to come. as Colwyn Bay is growing in popu- larity year by year, and in the interests of the gas undertaking, we have a large field as yet unexplored." At tin-) close a vote of thanks was a corded the Inspector.
