NEWCASTLE EMLYN. TENNIS.—The Lawn Tennis Club opened its season on Saturday when there was a good muster of members. The club is in a flourishing condi- ion, and an additional court has been recently laid wn. To celebrate the opening on Saturday the members very kindly entertained the gentle- ->.<• tea, al fresco. There is every season. I

resolution was passed, asking the Council to ta^e over the public road leading from Pentrebrunant I to Llitherbrith. Mr David Morgan said it was a road with a great deal of traffic on it, and was about a mile in length. In the mile there were about 50 houses, with a popu- lation of 150. The Parish Council had no right to touch it, and it was now in a bad state, and im- passible in some places. After some discussion, Mr David Morgan pro- posed that the Surveyor be asked to visit the place, and report upon the road to the next meeting of the Council. The Chairman explained that when the offer was made by the Council to take over this road some years ago. the residents did not see the necessity of accepting it. He considered that if it was no. worth accepting then, it was not worth accepting H£\\V There was no seconder to Mr Morgan's proposition and the matter was allowed to fall through. A communication was read from the Llanrhystyd Haminiog Parish Council making a similar applica- tion in respect of the road leading from Caecoch to Penuwch. Mr John Jones (chairman of the Parish Council) pointed out that the road went through three parishes, and he suggested that the Surveyor should examine it, and report as to its condition. Mr J. B. Morgan thought the same argument would apply to this road as in the preceding one. The Chairman contended that it would not, as this road ran from centre to centre. Mr J. B. Morgan then proposed that the com- munication be referred back to the Parish Council, with the request that they consult the three parishes interested, and also the Tregaron Rural District Council. The Rev J. Davies seconded, and the resolution was unanimously carried. DUTIES OF MEDICAL OFFICERS. The Rev J. Davies drew attention to the annual reports of the medical officers of health, which he considered were very good. Dr James referred to the improvements which had been carried out in his district since last year, and he hoped the Board would consider his report and carry out the sug- gestions contained therein, so as to increase the sanitation of the district from year to year. But he (the speaker) believed before they could get the sanitary condition of the Union perfect, they must have a medical officer of health, who would devote his whole time to the work. A suggestion was made at the last meeting of the County Council that one officer should be appointed for the three PO count ies-Ca rd igan, Pembroke and Carmarthen. The Chairman: One tor the three counties ? The Clerk: Yes, as a kind of superintendent. The Rev J. Davies said they could not expect their present officers to do the work thoroughly for their present salaries. If an officer was appointed for the whole country, however, he could do his work without fear or favour. They had large villages, such as Talybont, Borth, Llanbadarn, and Goginan, where there was no proper drainage or water supply, and they would not get matters right until they had an officer who would devote his whole time to the work. His resolution was to approve the suggestion of the County Council to get a medical officer who be able to undertake this work. By passing such a resolution, it would also strengthen the hands of those members of the County Council who were favourable to the idea. Mr. Edward Jones said it seemed that such an officer was appointed in Glamorganshire, and on the same system the Cardigan County Council recommended one for the three counties. A feeling was expressed, however, that the area would be too great for one officer. The Chairman enquired what was the object of the appointment. Was the officer to act throughout the three counties in connection with sanitation, or was his time to be more particularly applied to cattle diseases ? The Rev. J. Davies said it was not intended that the officer should go into matters minutely, but that he should report upon the sanitation of their large villages, for instances Mr. James Jones said, no doubt, the officer would be appointed to make periodical inspections of the whole county. He was of the same opinion as Mr. Davies, and believed that E30 was not sufficient salary for a man, and then expect him to give hi- opinion impartially. A man could not do it; and he saw, when going through the district, there was a great necessity for such an officer. On the previous Friday he visited a farmhouse, the land- lord of which was a rich man, and he had the pigstye built within two feet of the bedroom window. Mr. Edward Jones: Is there no inspector of nuisances there ? Mr James Jones: I don't know. Perhaps, Dr Hughes does not care to report it. You cannot go anywhere, without seeing things like that, Mr William Morris did not favour the appoint- ment of a medical officer for three counties. For instance, if a fever broke out in the upper end of Cardiganshire how would they know where to get hold of the officer. They would have to have an inspector independent of him. The Chairman: 0, yes. Mr Morris: And he would only act as super- intendent ? The Chairman: Yes. Mr Morris I don't see thatjhe would be of any use to us. The Chairman But the County Council will pay for him. ) The Rev J. Davies instanced the case of Goginan where the medical officer informed the Council that that the drainage, etc., were not what they should be on the other hand, the Parish Council had had written stating that the doctor said things were alright. It seemed to him that the doctor had not sufficient, courage to tell the people in their faces that things were not right. But if a medical officer were appointed by the County Council, he would be able to go to these places and fear no one. Mr Richard James said from the conversation which had taken place, he would gather that the medical officer lacked the courage to do what was right, because his salary was not sufficient. If that was the case, he thought he ought to receive more, and if the medical said the drainage of Goginan was bad, then the Council should deal with it and not listen to other people. Mr Edward Jones seconded the resolution pro- posed by the Rev J. Davies. Mr J. B. Morgan said although Mr Jones, a mem- ber of the County Council, had seconded the pro- position, be thought they might let them know what was their feelings on the matter. His feeling was that they should not create any more of these hon- orary positions. If such an officer was appointed he was of opinion that very litde advantage would result, for if they carried out the suggestions now { made to them by their present officers, the sanitary 8ondition of their district would be much better. Mr James Jones has just mentioned a case, and where was their inspector that he did not report that. Mr James Jones said he was of the same opinion as Mr Davies and proposed some time ago that the two medical officers should change from one dis- trict to another, in order to be able to do their work more effectively. It was impossible for them to do their work properly with the salaries they now received. On a division, the proposition was lost, only three voting in its favour. PENTRELLYN WATER SUPPLY. Mr D. Morris had a motion on the agenda that the Pentrellyn water pipes be relaid and cemented at the joints, at a cost not exceeding £ 30. Mr Morris now stated that the inhabitants themselves bad taken the work in hand, and it was unneces- sary for the Council to interfere. NEW BRIDGE WANTED. The Cynnullmawr Parish Council wrote asking this Council to erect a bridge over the Cyffiin River at Dolau. At present there was only a footbridge there, which would not bear any heavy weight, such as a funeral passing over it. The Chairman said the matter had been before the Council on a previous occasion, but then some of the honourable members bad opposed the application. Mr J. B. Morgan said no doubt the Chairman referred to him as being one of the honourable memb .s (laughter.) At the time referred to, he did io It wish to push the matter forward, as it was in ais own parish, and it might create a precedent. The circumstances were different now to tber. If a substantial bridge was made, it would b. an advantage to the community, and would do away with the footbridge. It was decided, after some consideration, to refer the matter back to the Parish Council, with the request that they confer with the surveyor as to what kind of bridge was required, and how much -ould be contributed locally toward the cost of <3 bridge. BUILDING PLANS. -lie Surveyor (Mr J. Hughes) reported that he -ceiveci two plans that morning of the proposed 'dings, one at Crosswood and the other at He wished to know whether the Council fer them for a month, as he considered have a week at least to examine them. stood that in one case the building was ceeded with.

MUSIC IN ABERYSTWYTH. SIR,—Wales has a reputation in the musical world. Long before I visited the Principality I had heard and accepted the statement, because it was often repeated, and by competent people not likely to be biassed. On our first visit to Wales, we timed it so as to enjoy the national eisteddfod, H.>ld that vpftr at Bansror: and the preconceived idea was confirmed, by the fine performances we heard. I do not remember being disappointed by anything we heard or witnessed, during the few weeks of our stay at that time from a musical point of view, and it was with feelings of joyful anticipation, that we looked forward to the winter we should have in the very home of music, as we used to think of Wales, when the tedium of the dull season would be relieved, by making acquaint- ance with the masterpieces of great musicians, which the Welsh we knew were capable of inter- preting with feeling and accuracy. I well remember strolling down to the beach, after the hot and tedious railway journey, and hear- ing a very excellent band, with the evidence of competent and careful instruction in their per- formance, and with the brilliant light and fairly attentive but rather irresponsive audience, feeling that we had come to the right place. But what was my disappointment when we found the band removed, and even the tiny temple sacred to the muse swept away, not by the raging sea, but by the ultra-economical hand of man the pier practically closed to all the tempting erections on Constitution Hill guarded by for- bidding barbs; and, worst of all, no promised entertainments indoors to be heard of during the weary months ahead. I enquired with astonish- ment if there were no concerts held, and was told they would not pay. Then my doubts began. Has this music-loving people degenerated, and is the Saesneg becoming the heir to passing heritage of the Cymraeg 7 Or is the people so poverty-stricken as to be unable to pay for the luxury of indulging in the divinest of arts? I, determined to observe, and this is the result. The people can afford to go to variety entertainments, to see animated pictures, and to attend dramatic performances, but not to listen to high-class music. I will not draw attention to this lack of perception of artistic beauty, for that is sufficiently obvious, but wish to emphasise the dangers they are running of ruining the fair fame of their country. They will surely kill all ambition in there sons and daughters, and drive all the talent, that will out in spite of coldness and indifference of their countrymen, into a more sympathetic clime. It was with indignation and disgust that I saw a handful of people in the Market Hall on Thursday, to hear a really high-class concert provided by Mr Wheatley and the talented young violinist, Mr. Ollerhead. I fear a serious financial loss must have fallen on these gentlemen, and their ardour for making another attempt effectually cooled, as far as Aber- ystwyth is concerned. The songs of Mr Hum- phreys were sung with skill and success, well deserving the enthusiastic encore to which he generously responded. Miss Rich delighted the audience with her pure and sympathetic voice and her admirable enunciation. The solos of Messrs. Collinson and Ollerhead on the cello and violin respectively were masterly, and the quartettes were performed with a finish and balance, worthy of a larger audience and of the genius of the master whom they were interpreting. The prices charged were really low for the quality of the entertainment. Many were absent to whom such a concert would have been a rare treat, and a solace to the weary brain or body, but were unable to come from pres- sing duties. But there were many more who would deliberately choose less refined entertainments to those winch can for a time lift them into a higher plane of being, through the influence of refined music. I have not minced matters, Mr. Editor, for honesty ia the best policy." A. WALKER. P.S.—In connection with this subject, I wish to express my obligations and those of my family to Mr. Leab. the able organist of the English Con- gregational Church, for the series of admirable concerts held by him in Portland-street Chapel. They were of an enjoyable and educative character, and were the only entertainments of a musical description open to visitors for some months. It is a pity they were not better supported financially, and that the organ on which Mr. Leah performs were not of a better compass and greater variety. The addition of some new stops would enable him to render music which either cannot be performed or must be mutilated to suit the instrument. A. W.

WOMEN AGAINST THE WAR, SIR.—It would help us greatly if, through the medium of your paper, we might make known something of the work of the women connected with the South Africa Conciliation Committee. We are dividing our workers into groups, in order to deal more systematically with the various districts in London, and these groups of workers are organising drawing-room meetings and dis- tributing literature as widely as possible. Our immediate object in view is a mass meeting of women to be held in the Queen's Hall in June. The object of the meeting will be to enable all women who are so minded to protest against:— 1st. The policy which led to the present war in South Africa. 2nd. The attempt to silence, by disorder and violence, all freedom of speech about, or criticism of, the Government policy. 3rd To oppose any settlement which involves the extinction by force of two Republics whose inhabitants, allied to us in blood and religion, cling as passionately to their separate nationality and flags as we in this country do to ours. We hope and believe that all England will be represented at this meeting, not London alone. A small committee to arrange it has been appointed, consisting of Mrs Leonard Courtney, Mrs James Bryce, Mrs F. MacKarness, the Marchioness of Ripon, Miss E. D. Bradbury, and myself. If any sympathisers in your neighbourhood, or amongst your readers, will help in the furtherance of this meeting, we should be very grateful if they will communicate with me, or some member of the Committee.-I am, &c., EMILY HOBHOUSE, Hon.

THE RECENT INQUEST SIR,-I do not think the medical profession in this town needs an apologist, for its own services to the people are its best defence. But the ill con- ditioned attack on Dr James, and his colleagues, by one of the jury, is not directed against him or them individually, but is evidence of a strong prejudice, against the profession as a whole, on a part of a section of the public. How far the anti-vaccination and anti-vivisection crusaders have to do with it, is of course impossible to say. There is at all times a disposition on the part of ill-balanced minds, to to dispute the claims of authority, whether it be civil, or scientific. At a loss for argument, of which they have none, they resort to brute force if possible, and to mud throwing, if brickbats are not available. There is a growing tendency to dis- parage the medical profession, and to weaken its influence with the public. The present case is an illustration of this choice mode of warfare. The treatment David Lewis received from the coroner, at once dignified and disapproving, and the silent rebuke of his fellow jurors, speaks well for the good sence of the people of this town, and the excellent relations which exist between them and their medical friends. But, in some places, such conduct would be received with sympathy, and these absurd charges applauded by the jury and the public. The evidence of Dr. Jones as to the state of the man's health, and the condition of his organs, made it a matter of surprise that he had reached the age of 54. By his folly he must have been in as criti- cal a state as most men of 80 or even 90. Even the robust have not merely the proverbial inch between them and death, but a tissue as fine as silk paper. Their safety depends on its elasticity and resistant power. Harden this tissue, make it brittle, as in this man's case, and life seems a miracle. The fact of the death occurring so soon is absolute proof that there was no overdose of chlorofoim if given as stated with ordinary care. The high sense of responsibility, the humanitarian spirit, to say nothing of the jealousy for the reputation of the profession which animates medical men, will secure to all who come under their care the most guarded treatment when life is at stake. The life of a doctor is a life of self-sacrifice, far greater than the public appreciate. Not a moment of the night or day can he absolutely claim for leisure or recreation; but, however en- gaged or disposed, he may have to wrestle with death in single-handed and unequal contest. The wear and tear and strain of such anxious work shortens his days, disturbs his repose, and often burdens his heart. Instead of bitter attacks and unworthy inuendos, he merits sympathy and support. In wild and unreasoning hostility to vaccination, for instance, it is hinted that the profession bolster up the system for selfish ends. This is a specimen of the poor foundation on which anti-vaccinationists have raised their opposition, which has succeeded in making a vaccillating Government partially paralize the Vaccination Act. The framers of this lie against the profession know that small pox was a mine of wealth to the medical profession, and vaccination yields practically no revenue. But the ignorant, whom the lie was meant to inflame, are incensed accordingly, and the fraud succeeds. In every sanitary advance, for which the profession is pressing, it is picking its own pocket, and it gets no credit for it. M.D.
