Gd. in j amount and an increase of 30 in number; per Mi-. 1. Morgan, £ 47 6s. to 140 paupers, a decrease ox £ 2 7s. in amount and 13 in number. j Detention of Vagrants. A letter was read from the Tregaron Union stating that vagrants were not de- tained at tiieir casual ward over Sunday. The Aberayron Union wrote statinT that owing to adjoining Unions having departed from the arrangement made some time ago to detain vagrants in the casual wards over Sundays the Guardians of that Union had also discontinued the arrangement. They were nevertheless quite prepared to renew the arrangement provided the other Unions in the country would do the same.—Mr. W. Thomas thought they should make another effort. to get the arrangement observed. The vagrants were a cause of terror to the country people, especially as houses were left on Sundays with perhaps only one occupant while the others were at church or chapel.—The Clerk was directed to draw up a circular to be sent to all the Unions in the county requesting them to again abide by the arrangement recently ag'eed into.— y I It was* reported that ten vagrants were relieved at the common lodging houses dur- ing the past fortnight, these having arrived too late to be admitted to the casual ward. The Collector's Resignation. A letter wag read from Mr. H. G. stating; he could not;s~+^n*atWVlfo collector of_ pool othe.. arrange- ments had been made for the forthcoming year.—A letter was also read from the Aberystwyth Town Council giving no/tice that they had applied to the Local Govern- ment Board for the powers of appointment of overseers, assistant oversee's, and rate collector for the parish of Aberystwyth.— Rev. T. A. Penry asked when would the Town Council get a reply from the Local Government B(.)l-ird :T-lie Clerk sa;d it was impossible to say.—After .some discussion, the Rev. T. A. Penry gave notice that he would draw 'attention to the matter at the next meeting and move a resolution thereon. -fit reply to Ir. W. Thomas, the Clerk said Mr. Atfvrood's term of office would expire on December 25 next. Master's Report. The Master reported that the number in the House was ol, as compared with 43 in the corresponding period of last year. During the fortnight 82 vagrants were re- lieved. Richard Roberts, of Aberystwyth, aged 27 years, died at the House' on the 21st inst and was interred on the 23rd at the cemetery.
---_--__-----Presentation…
Presentation to Mr Jenkin James, M A. On Saturday last at a well-attended meeting of Cardiganshire teachers, which was held at Alexandra-road Council School, Aberystwyth, a wedding present consisting of a marble timepiece and a case of cutlery was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Jenkin James, by the teachers of the county. Mr. H. H. Herring, of Llanavan, ex-president of the County Association, presided, and) in introducing Mr. and Mrs. James to the meeting congratulated them on their mar- riage. Mr. y Herring apologised, for the absence of the president, Mr. Davies, Adpar, who was unable to attend owing to the awk- warchiess of railway arrangements, the speaker expressed the pleasure it gave the teachers to make this presentation. The teachers had watched Mr. James' work with admiration at the efficiency he had shown in bringing order out of the confusion he must have found in the. varied organisations which he had to unify. All voluntary teachers j hoped that the Lords wculd have a little wisdom given them that they would get voluntary teachers brought forward to work fully under the Council. Mr. Herring i graphically described the changes Mr. James had effected in his office work and the high state of order everything was in now. Mr. J. Rees, Pontrhydfendigaid, the old- est member of the Teachers' Organisation was called upon to make the presentation. Mr. Rees, said he was glad to be in a com- pany, where harmony and peace prevailed, Mr. Jenkin James was young, and had stepped into the place of Mr. Fryer who was one of the ablest administrators in Wales. Mr. James' work had been most difficult; the very great complications left by the School Boards in their accounts and varied arrangements were very formidable, and it was surprising how he had got through his work so smoothly and quickly. He had to deal with two bodies—the Education Com- mittee on the one hand and the teachers on the other,-and he had displayed great tact in dealing with Everybody concerned. En begging Mr. and Mrs. James to accept these presents he wished them a long life and happiness and further useful service. Mr. Bevan, Llanarth, as a representative of Aberayron Association, spoxe of his know- ledge of Mr. James for many years. Mr. James was a board school boy, and as such) he had a real sympathy with the hardshipS. and difficult;es met with in school. He had every confidence from the time of Mr. James' appointment that he would do the work with efficiency and justice, and he wisbied him and Mrs. James a long life and happi- nesR. Mr. D. Thomas bavins: spoken on behalf of Lampeter Association. Mr. Jenkin James in accepting the presents said he wished he could adequately convey to the teachers the gratitude he felt for the expression of thei'- good will and good wishes; nothing could give him more pleasure than this presenta- tion It wis unexpected, the gift was generous and noble in itself, but he valued if mostly en account of its representative character. A whole profession was repre- sented in it. He valued it verv much on that account. His relation with most of the teachers had been that of a corresnon^- ent and on that account it was remarkable to him that they should have been so gener- ous to him. It was only two years from last week that he had come among them in his present capacity, and he could say at that time as Air. Birrell had said rc-contly that no one could envy him his joh." He came to a sea of trouble; the act of lyOiJ meant a complete change in administration, he was called upon to bring the machine of Education in the county into working order, and now, having gamed sornie experience by the difficulties overcame, he believed that with some exceptions, in such minor matters as the mending of a pane ol glass in a window, things worked fairly smoothly. He looked forward to the future with some eoiilf.tl. No greater chlalngel can come in the near future than that of 1902. They had realised fully that whatever Act of Parliament was passed, succe,^ was impos- sible in education without co-operation be- tween teachers and authorities. Speaking of the co-opted teacher members Mr. James roierred to the great loss the Education Committee had sustained by the removal of Miss Tremain who had been of such value to the committee, but Mr. Rees and Mr. Bevan still remained, and they had by their faithful service and expert knowledge won the esteem of the Education committee. tie hoped that his relations with the teachers would be as harmonious in the future as they had been in the past. Their aim as a committee and teachers was the same, and it was to train the minds o the children ¡'H\ make them worthy citizens of the em- pire. Mr. W. P. E. Jones, Cwmpadarn, secretary to the presentation committee re- erred to ihe great readiness with which the teachers had responded to the circular in- viting them to join in this presentation. -Ili. D. Rees, Llanddewi Brefi, having made a humorous speech, votes of thanks were unanimously given to Mr. W. P. Ehvy Jones for his secretarial duties and to Ir. Herring for presiding. The timepiece waa supplied by Mr. D. Evans, jeweller, Great Barkgate-street, Abeiystwyth, and the case of cutlery by Messrs. M. H. Davis, Aber- ystwyth.

This oft lepeated couplet, which means that when the former fair is favoured with fine weather the latter is attended with wet woather, was not borne out by actual experience this year. ''Ffair Fartin." held on Thursday last, was held in delightful weather, and drew hundreds of agricultural folk to the town. There was a very good supply of cattle, and of horses of a mixed quality, but dealers were scarce. Prices ruled as follows: Cows with calves, £12 to £ lo two year old store cattle in good condition, plo to £12; yearlings, £ 6 to £ 9; cart horses, £;3) to £ 40; two year old, t22 to £ 27; yearling colts, jei2 to £ 14; sucklings, t7 to £9; sheep 1:2 2s. to JE3 os.

Morris, and Evan Davies. —The application of Mr. Thomas, Pontshan School for an assistant teacher was deferred for a month. Miss Mvfanwv Griffiths was recommended as seeing mistress at Pen- morfa. It. was agreed that permission be given to the headmaster of Penmorfa school to shorten the dinner hour by half-an-hour. so as to close the school earlier in the after- noon. The chairman thought it would be better to allow less time for dinner in rural districts.—Mr. Evm Davies said the chil- dren at AL-erbank School were let out at 3.30 p.m., and it was dark before they reached home.—Miss Anne Thomas was appointed supplementary teacher at Llan- dyssul Council School at a salary of £ 2o per annum.—Mr. Jenkin James submitted the applications of Miss Oliver, Bryn School, and Miss James, Capel Cynon School for increase of salary, Miss Oliver had served 26 years and her salary was £102. Her salary was not so good when under the School Board when she was paid for sewing and needlework, and obtained the highesrfc grants from the beginning. Miss James said she had served 12 years, and saw ro reason why distresses should not be paid equal to masters.—Capt. Davies informed the meeting that the question of salaries was before the Education Aul horitv, and he

1 Workshop Perils. INDUSTRIES WHICH INJURE THE LUNGS. Many disease., are due to the inhaling of dust and smoke in our factories anI work- shops, and the heavy mortality from. lung disease among the working classes i'l large industrial centres can be accounted vor in this way. It is just such a pleasant, convenient, and safo remedy like Peps, the new antiseptic lung and throat tablet, that has long been wanted. Peps are the toilers' friend; and a box should always be carried in the vest pocket. Thus, in grinding trades of Shef- field, the workers are liable to breaths into thei:* lungs steel dust of varying decrees of fineness. "Stonemason's lung" is due to fine particles of stone breathed ir. during the play oi the chisel. We have also Wool-sorters' disea.se," and Match-miak- I ers' "Phossy jaw," vhile consumption, asth- ma, bronchitis as a direct result of foul i mi. lnnerent or acquired weakness in the lungs, throat, or any portion of the chest, whir'h might otherwise go unnoticed for years, is brought to light when we breathe into our bodies any grit, dust, geim, or foul workshop air. The evil is insidious in its growth, and Peps should always be kept handy. DUST AND FOUL AIR. The regular use of Peps, unlike any othor inhaled or swallowed medicine, exerts a direct influence upon the delicate lung and throat tissues, which are the seat of the trouble. Peps form an agreeable gargle for tin? throat and as the tablet is crushed or dissolved on the tongue, the genuine pine fumes are given off and breathed into the windpipe and lungs. Inflammation and soreness, due to the inhalation of dust or offensive gases, are quickly alleviated, and other and worse evih entirely averted'. The rich pine fumes penetrate to the furthest corners of the respiratory organs, which cannot be reached by ordinary medicine. Peps are bandy to take during the work- ing hours, and being free from opium, chloral, and all injurious drugs, they may ba taken in any quantity without inducing sleepiness or upsetting the stomach and bowels. Peps are a. boon to all industrial workers. A box may bo had of any chemist for Is. Hd. or post free from the Peps Pastille Co., Carlton Hill, Leeds.
DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY. The Thames Police-court magistrate passed a sentence of six months' hard labour on George Roast, a young fellow who was found guilty of stealing a purse containing £ 2 10s. from the person of George Herbert, a ship's engineer. On Friday night. Herbert was walking along Upper East Smithfield when he was seiaed by prisoner and two other men. While two of the men held him, the third robbed him of his purse. They then ran away, but an alarm being raised the accused was caught by a constable after a chase of about half a mile.
FACTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
FACTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. Among the many attempts that have been made during the past few years to compile and pubhsh in a clear and well arranged order, information on matters per- taining to advertising, none, perhaps, more closely approximates the ideal than does Benson's Facts." This handy work has been revised and brought up-to-date, and the 1906-7 edition contains a mass of useful information on the following subjects:— Postal Information, Populations, Import Duties, Money Equiva- lents, Weights and Measures, Patents and Copyrights, Types, Proof Reading. Sizes and Weights of Paper, etc., Wood Engrav- ing, Process Blocks, Relief Blocks, Electros ana Stereos, Three-colour Process, Chromo- Lithography; it also contains full lists of London and Provincial Newspapers and Magazines, Billposting Stations, and par- ticulars of Electric Signs, Omnibus, Tram and Railway Advertising, and Colonial and Foreign Advertising, and is, in fact, a completo vade mecum to the technicalities of advertising. Nlaiiy cai-ciully printed maps are included, and the various methods of illustrating a subject -Three-colour Process, Wood En- graving (fine and open), Line Block Process, Shadowgraph Process, Half-tone (fine and coarse), Relief Blocks, Chromo-Lithography —are reproduced in a very effective man- ner. The whole of this information is con- tained within a compass of 6tin. by 5J by lin.-a oompact, hardy size—well bound in morocco, with. gilt edges and title and rounded corners, and is unencumbered by advertisements. The work of compiling must have been tremendous, and the 5s. charged for each copy of the work represents, we should think, but a very small proportion of the total cost the production of such a complete book necessarily involves. It should prove a va.luab'e addition to the library of every business man.

The Registrar General having suggested to the Guaidians the desirability of recon- structing a portion of the Unior. tor _the purpose of can ^m", '-Av a moie economi- cal way, Dr. A I ans, according to notice given at a previous meeting, proposed that the district of Tlangeler, which was now registered at Newcastle Emlyn be at Llan- dyssul; Llandyfriog now at Rhydlevis be at Newcastle Emlyn; Llatigynllo, now at Llandyssul be at Rhydlewis. --Air Wallis Jones seconded. The Chairman proposed that LI a n gel er should remain ê).q at Pre" sant. Mr Henry Davies seconded, ajid this was carried. Dr. Evans' proposition respecting Llandyfriog and Llangynllo was then passed. Greetings. The Chairman &ai.d he was sure they were all pleased to see the new inspector present, and more so because he was Welsh —Mr. H R Williams, who was received with, applause, in responding in Welsh, thanke.d the members for the welcome they had ao- corded him. He had no speech to make, as he had only been in the House for a short time that morning, and he only hoped that he would not be obliged to make any special report at any time. He was glad to come back to the old country, and to see so many faces which were familiar to him when he occupied the other position. He was following in the footsteps of an oxperienced gentleman, who had done great service in the administration of the Poor Law. Mr Bircham was a high authority oil Poor Law matters, and took a great in- terest in his work. He only hoped that the same feeling which prevailed during Mr Bircham'a tenure of office would continue, and if lie should be called upon at any time to give advice lie trjsi-ed the members would receive it in the spirit in which it would be given. (Applause.) RURAL DISTRICT COUNCIL. A meeting of the Newcastle Emlyn Rural District Council was held on Friday at the Board Room, Mr. W. J. Wallis Jones pre- siding. Correspondence. A communication was received from the Postmaster General acknowledging the re- ceipt of a petition respecting the extension of the telephone trunk line from Abeiyst- wyth to Carmarthen, and stating that the matter was under consideration. Train Service. A letter was received from the Clerk to the Lampeter Town Council urging this Council to petition for an improvement in the train service so as to get better postal arrangements. One benefit accruing from tho suggested change would be that Lam- peter would be able to post their letters 3 boura later.—Mr. Lewis, Meiroa Hall, in supporting the request drew attention to tha train service from Carmarthen to New- castle Emlyn. If the present 10 train in the morning waited another 15 minutes at Carmarthen it would enable the north mail letters to be received by that instead of as at present by the 3 p.m. train, Again the 7.15 p.m. train on Saturday nights only ran as far as Pencader. If this was ex- tended as far as Newcastle Emlyn it would bo a real boon to business men. Now Car- diff has to be left at 2 p.m. and Swansea 3 p.m. before people can reach home that night. It was decided to support tthe petition. r'fI 1. uwmorgan water question. Mr. T. Davies, Cilwaunyddfawr, reported that, according to the request of the Council, they had seen Mr. Clarke on the matter and his wishes were that a railing should be made round the well for 5 feet. He did not consent to the railing touching the hedge anywhere for fear of animals getting injured.—Mr. J. Lewis said he saw Mr. Clarke who said he owned the spot. He (Mr. Lewis) spoke to him strongly on the matter, and was told he (Mr. Lewis) was too friendly with the Sanitary Inspector. He proposed that the matter be again re- ferred to the same committee.—Mr. Barrett seconded. Alltymynydd Sanatorium. Mr. Davies, Cilwaunyddfawr brought forward a motion to petition the County Council to contribute towards the Sanator- ium as suggested. That would enable pati- ents to be sent then from this district for treatment.—Mr. W. J. Wallis Jones sec- onded.—Mr. Thomas Penwern: Do VOll want to go into more expense? —Mr. Williams. Pontbrenba-ch: We have sent one patient from this district to a sanatorium in Eng- land and now we refuse to support one at homo when we 'get the chance. It is our duty to take care of the poor and expend the money for their benefit in health as weii as food. I heartily support Mr. Davies proposition.—Mr. Thomas, Penwern, pro- posed a direct negative, and was seconded by Mr. Davies, Sychnant.-The amendment was carried by three votes. Sanitary Inspector's Report. Mr. Bowen, sanitary inspector, reported that although the little village of Penrher- ber was on a hligh elevation, there was not sufficient declivity for surface water to run off. It accumulated in pools around. He suggested a pipe should be lad down. Mr Henry Davies, Sycl:nant: Place it on the agenda for the next meeting.—Several^heaps of ashes and dung lay on the roadside at Pontwelly. Notices were ordered to be sent out. He had inspected the water works at Pencader, and the Surveyor deserved hoai- ourable mention for the manner in which the work was carried out. Everyone there was perfectly satisfied. Alltywalis School had been inspected, and the water supply was not satisfactory—Mr. J. Lewis: I hieard that that is a failure.—It was decided that the matter be deferred for a time owing to, wheat being in the field through which the, pipes are laid. Rhewincoch Bridge. The proposition of Mr. Thomas, Penwern,1 that the question of the above bridge be left was carried by five votes to four, several members remaining neutral. Bye-laws. The Clerk reported that the printer had not been able to get the Bye-laws ready as promised, at which several members grumbled. Wilkes Head Weil. The Chairman loported that Mr. Wil- liams. Mr J. Evans, Dr. Evans, Mr Thomas, Penwern, and Mr. Jones, Pencraigwen, had met on the spot. It was necessary that something should bo done to protect the drain which flowed from the stable into the field forming a pool The Surveyor was of opinion it might percolate into the well. He recommended that,the drain be diverted past the house into the Teify. He also sug- gesteel that the well be raised four feet, and, a pump fixed on the top. The expense would not exceed £ 12 to which the Llan- dyssul Council were willing to contribute one half.—Mr. J. Lewis proposed, and T. Thomas, Penwern, seconded that it should be done.—The Sanitary Inspector was al- lowed the usual sum towards stationery. Tenders. The following tenders for supplying atones were accepted:—(L).

- LAMPETER
■ diphtheria at the Llanybyther Council School was due to the overcrowded state of the school, Mr E M Evans said he would like to know how many children under the age of five attended the school. Children at pre- sent were sent when too young, and the school was practically converted into a nursery. If they stayed at home instead of going to school there would not be over- crowding.—The Chairman remarked that at Pencarreg School, not far from Llanybyther, they could not find enough children to at- tend school. South Wales Sanatorium. It was decided to write to the County Council petitioning them to give their sup- pout to the South Wales Sanatorium. G.W.K. Train Service. A letter was read from the Lampeter Town Council asking the Council's support to an attempt to procure the continuance of a train service to Swansea which was stopped after the summer months. The letter from the Lampeter Town Olerk stated that the train referred to left Aberystwyth at 6.10 p.m., arriving at Lampeter at 7.25.1 then going on to Carmarthen, where it. atqpped. During the summer nwii(ths mails could be sent by this train to Swan- sea, but the latest time for mails from Aberystwyth for South Wales was now 3.50 with a corresponding time at the other places along the line. The concession of the request by the G.W.R. Company would benefit all the places from Aberystwyth to Carmarthen The Council gave the matter their support. Llanybyther School Again. A letter was read from the Clerk to the County Education Committee stating that, in reply to the Council a request asking the County Education Committee to correct the overcrowding at Llanybyther Council School, the Architect had been instructed to arrange a meeting with the medical offi- cer (Dr. E. C .Thomas), with a view to re- medy the alleged overcrowding, which was in the class rooms. The letter stated that the school was erected to provide places for 231 children, while the largest number on the books for the past month was 206. The Aberystwyth-Carmarthen Telephone Trunk Line. A letter was read from Mr J L Morgan, M.P., stating that lie had written to the Postmaster General in support of the re- sdlutionl of the Council re the telephone facilities which Lampeter sought. The Postmaster General also wrote to the effect that the matter would be carefully consid- ered. Diphtheria. The Medical Officer (Dr. E. C Thomas) re- ported that the Llanybyther Council School had been closed for three weeks on account of the rapid spreading of diphtheria in the district. He had also recommended that Abergorlech should be closed for a similar period as measles was widely- prevalent among the school children; on the 19th inst. only 22 were present in the school out of 71 on the books. In reference to the same matter a communication was read from the Local Government Board requiring the Council to prepare a report on the outbreak, which report was to contain information respecting fatal and non-fatal cases, the circumstances attending the outbreak and the steps taken by the Council to check the infection.
