Williams: Why cannot the Rector ho.d his service at 11 a..m.? It will be very trying to have the services following each other immediately. The Chairman: I should not think either re- ligious fc-odies. should insist on tiheir services he Lng held strictly to the minute and at the very same hour. Mr W. Hughes: I am prepared to attend both services provided they are mot held simul- taneously. Mr A. Hughes: Will the Free Church Coun- Li, cil not be satisfied to arrange their service as they did nine yean ago? It is too bad that the non-attendance of one person at the ch&^ei service on that ooc.ason should be the caike of the present differenoeis. Alderman W. J Williams: I am bound to carry out the instructions of the Free Church Council, who have decided to hold the service a.t the same time a*; the service is held at Wind- sew. I have snt out notiocs to that effect; so we cannot alter cur arrangements. The Chairman: I still maintlai that both parties should give way a little, the Church to hold the service a Uttle earlier than the Rector intended, and the cihapek a little later than wias at Sirst arranged. I understand the Free Church Council have not as yet published tihe hour of their service. Alderman W. J. Williams: Only that it will be head exacdy at the saine hour as the ser- vice at Windsor. i The Chairman: The feeling of the Church- people is strongly in favour of a mutual li'iide.r- standir.ig. It is a t^fme wiien the hutehet should be buried, and for public spirit to itee above sectarian difTerencjes. Alderman W. J.

At tliis point the Chairman retired, and Mr T. Rogers Jones took the chair. The Captain of the Fire Brigade reported that the brigade had -anso received eiJiiuai in- vitations.

ABERGELE UKBAN COUNCIL. Mr E. Williams, who presided at Tuesday's meeting of the Abergele and Pensarn Urban District Council, ¡Saidt.h.at the nation had for r he past week been undeir the ^haxiow of a y pa6t week been dark cloud, death havmg ctepnved them oi the most noble and beloved boveare.gn. A Sreat«r sorrow couki hardly have befallen Britain,and ho felt sure he was expressing the feeling 01 wnolo Council when ho referred to the event. Though the dead King s re.gn had been but a short one, there never reigned a inonaroh so dear to the hearts, of all hid subjects. His late Majesty evmced an interest in ail Xni5 peo- ple—rich and poor alike—arid his wa\ *?r their welfare. To be at peace with the who^e world was his chief aim, EO that ho had rightly won the title of "Edward the Peacemaker. To-day, continued Mr Wilhams, sorrow lies heavily upon our country, and especially upon our beloved Queen Dowager and the Royal Family. Our preyer is that Her Majesty's WKh may be fulfilled, viz., that God may give her d,ivine help and comfort to bsar this heavi- est of croisses. Our prayer is also that Almighty God may give our new King wisdom, strength, and guidance, that he may follow in Ims be- loved father's footsteps. Although the nation's sorrow was great ho (the chairman) believed they could congratulate themselves upon such ia euooerssion, for King George, in spite of has own grief, had eent his sympathy to the suffer- ers by the lamentable pit disaster at White- haven, thus fulfilling the words of Scripture: "If ye fulfil the ro-al law according to the Scrifpturo, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thypelf." In conclusion, the chairman sub- mitted the following resolution: "The Abergele and Pensam Urban District Council record i deep sense of the lose sustained by the British Empire through the death of JEIis Majesty King Edward VII., and mcut respect- fully tender to Hie Majesty King George V., Her Majesty Queen Mary, Her Majesty Alexandria (the Queen-Mother), and all the Royal Family their sincere sympathy and con- dolence in their great bereavmeent." Mr Pierce seconded the resolution, which was supported by Mr W. J. Evane. -and, parsed in silence.

PROCLAMATION AT RHYL. By the consent of the Home Secretary, the Prod-aticn of tihe King was read at Rhyl on Thursday afternoon in the presence of many thousands. A procession was- formed at the Town Hall, and proceeded through Wellington- road, High-street, West PanacDe, to the New Pavilion, where the baHcony was reserved for a select party of the councillors, their wives and friends. In the grounds beneath Coastguards, Territorials, Yeomanry, Post Office Officials, Lifeboat men, Boys' Brigade, Boy Soo-uts, school dhiDdrecn and the general public assembled- A fawfare of trumpets was eoundied by two trum- peters in uniform from Ohester, and after silence mad been obtained, Councillor A. Rbydw-en Jones read the pro- clamation m. a dear voice. The National An- them was stung in English and WeJsh to the aoocEnpaaiiimeint of the Rhyl Town Band, after which "Land of my Fathe^" was rendered by the gathering. Cheers wene then raised for King George V- and Queen Mary, the Union Jack be- inig unifurled on the flag-staff of the Pavilion as the National Anthem was suing. An interesting group was photographed at the conclusion of the ceremony, the tauiinpeteira forming on either side of tihe councillors, magistrates, and officials. Among those present wast Captain Gribbin, who is 82 years of age, and who weaxs the Crimean inedads with the Balaclava bar.

A MEDITATION UPON THE DEATH OF KING EDWARD. Great King of Kings, o'er earth etupneimie Thy mighty sceptre sways, And yet so oft how strange do eeean To us thy secret ways. The g-em of earth's most potent crown. O'er us held Kingly sway; But all OUT hopes wene soon cast dovu- For he was taken a<wfty. We trusted he, by loving ways, Would cause home strifes to oease, And Load the hand from party frayB To bright and hatppy peace. What didst Thou see, 0 God, in us But man's whole trust in man; Thy Providence forgotten thus In warning subjects5 .plam. And so our King to roign most oease To te,a,c.h us to beware, And know that lands can have no pe-ace Without Thy fostering care. Then toach us Thee, in faith, to ],-now In true submission cry, Now from the depths of saddest woe— "Thy will be dn.eJ! Most High. T. EDWARDS (G-wynedd). Abeir Rectory.

•wwa———on——J———O CHESS. COLWYN BAY v. BANGOR. Though the Colwyn Bay Chess Club closed its season sonLe weeks ago, there was a fair attendance, on Wednesday last week, on the occasion otf the return match with the Ban- gor Y.M.C.A., the. winners of the North Wales "Chambers' Challenge Cup. The visitors arrived about four o'clock, and, after a stroll in thie Woods and a substantial tea at the Cafe Royaa, ac the guests of the local club, faced the boards shortly after sis p.m. It had been hoped thlit piayiug at home, and with all except two oi their first team avail- able for the contest, Colwyn Bay might on this occasion prove victorious over the Cup- holders. But, this hope -proved delusive, as the result was again a decisive victory for the Bangor team. Indeed, in some respects, that result was even moae hutmiliating to the home c-J-Ub, for its two "wins" were scored at the lower boards, the iokur leading players only contributing a solitary J to the total scone. At No. 1 board, Mr Rowland, though un- successful, piLayed an excellent g&xae against the Bangor captain, and his eventual defeat by one who ranks as high in tho chess world as Mr J. E. Parry, did hima no discredit. Mr Nunn, too, may be compilimented on the skill and paitience with which he emerged from a most difficult situation, though equally patient liday by his opponenit later on de- prived him of the win which at one tiane seemed fairly within his grasp. Mr Grundy's victory over Mr Bowen showed that his pro- motion to No. 5 board was fully justified, wiliile at No. 8 Mr Summers found his task a comparatively ieasy one. Of the leading Bangor players, Mr Muir showed himself in better form than for some time past, malting not a single mistake throughout, and fully deserving his victory, while Dr. Price fully confirmed his previous defeat of Mr Evans, ,at Bangor. qWes:- OOLWYN BAY.

WHITSUNTIDE AT LLAN- DUDNO. A LARGE INFLUX OF VISITORS. Ideal summer weather prevailed at. Wandudiio dur- ing the holidays. Early oil Saturday visitors began to arrive iin larg'e nuoiibea's, antl on Monday rail- way traffic exoeedied all previous records, when over twedity oxvmviK). trains arrived during the morniiing, four of which came tram Norwich, bringing in aH nearly 1400 passengers. This is the first occasion upon which a day excursion has been run from Norwich, and it speaks highly for the arrangements of the COIIn- paaies concernc-d that the trippers were able to spend from ten to twelve h-oun at Llandudno. The excur- sions are the result of the new working arKungernenfcs arrived ait between the Midland and London and Nortih-Western Railway Ooompiaiiies. The fine fleet ot the Liverpool and North Wales Steamship Company also brought to Ll-ajndudno mamy thousands of holiday-makers. The towin presented a very animated appearance, especially m the boaclx, where cliil-dren were able to padidle in the water to their hearts' content. Many took advantage of the warai sunshine to have their flrat dip in tihe sen. Boating wag also freely indulged in. The motor and ooach tours appeared to be well patronised, and the Llandudlno and Oolwyn Bay, as well as the Cineat Orme Tramways, were having a brisk tame. Thesre was 00 dearth ol amusements.

THOUGHTS ON MUSIC. ITS EDUCATION. "Newlamdigmith," in his intetnestilig book "Tlhe Temple of Art," nemarka, "It is doubtful if there is any training so dnsastrousily organised— es'peoiafly in its elementary stages—as the musical etfeication of the average schoolboy or girl." Now ireaiisir^g' this to be true, and that his train- ing is what the next generation depends upon for its musical cuiltune, it is enough to make one cry out with dicaxbJo veGomence. I wish to make a pica, for a deeper, broader, and1 higher education of our young musicians, pianoforte players in particular, of whom there are such a vast musltitudle in this country. Music is ae much an wt-if. not more so-.as poetry, ecuiptuire or pamting; it requires as much ekil and intellectual ability to beooane eminenti audi contributes quite as much to the refinement of its studieinte and masters. Many pianoforte players seean to have little desire to study thoroughly, and a little appre- ciation of its necessity. Why is this? Is it the teacher or pupil who is at fault,, perchance both, musical education like any other kind of education must be regtardied as a science and an art- The study of pianoforte plaving. for in- stance, is more than fingergynmaistic, it must appeal to the heart, mind, and intellect, and the development of miaid aindl muse lis- must pro- ceed parallel, the one. can never be substitute for the other. Why should not the study Of music be as methodical, and as nearly in conformity with the natural laws of mental dJevejopmczrt as in other branches of education ? Why should not methods of education in music advance as in other branches of music ? How many of our young students of music know, or have heard ajiytlidng about Beethoven, Schuman, or Chopin, or have ffftmied, the beautiful and immortal works of these great, masters, and which ought to form an important part in their musical edu- cation? How many advanced pupils of the pianoforte study She construction, etc., of the .music they practice, or harmony, counterpoint, history, and form ? How many study and realise musics as an art, and grasp the transcen- dent beauty of classical music, their sublime aind inspiring mdodries-, a.nd fine heart-stirring hantnonies 1 I venture to say they are but very few. "What is wocrtli doing, is worth doing well." fi The larger percentage of musical students think they are quite proficient, when they &re aMe to pilay an ordinary hymn tune, mark the rythm of dfctnee, music, or capable of pounding out the accompaniment to a music hall song or chorus. Such persons are mere piano-thumpers, and have no rea.l-'sation of art, and the least possible notion of music. What becomes of tlhe art when such persons reaeih maturity, andt at- tempt to teach pianoforte piaying. They must be as. unsafe a guide as a lawyer commanding a battfeahip. Here I emphatically declare it to be the teachers' fault that tiho standard of music has gione so low in this country. If the pupil has an inclination to study music of whatever kind (pianoforte, violin, singing, etc.) he has a right to have nothing but what is Rood, elevating, and noble. Also, it is not sufficient for a pianist to practice on the piano, or violinist on the violin; tlhe student ought to gain an all-round knowettdige of music, such as harmony, form, etc., which is indispensable to those that thoroughly enjoy classical music, and which couJd, and O'Uight to be studied hand1 in hand with whatever instrument one is bent upon learning. If they are trus artists, lovers of music ought to pursue it for its own sake. The influence of good music ought to be salu- tary, <1.11di ou,1tiva.tedJ; its pleasures, and enjoy- riKni.6 aire of a chaste and elevating character. "Mill:" in essay on education, suggests nm.co as a means of "profit and delight," as ''recreating' and! composing to the travailed spirits," of those who are being educated. He wouldi foavet them "taken up" with the "solemn and diviiKf harmonies," "heard or' learned." It has a a-t power over dispositions and manners, to smooth and make them gentle from rustio harshness, and distempered passions. Again, "Music," sayB Lutlirr, "15 one of the fairest and most glorious gifts of God', to which Satan is a. bitter enemy. I always loved music, and would not for a great matter be without the little sidil I fioesiesa in the art." If iliere is such a power in musiic as the quotations' &how, how important that it silwu bo cultivated in tihe highest and, noblest direction, and be appropriated' to the highest and noblest ends. It is Ivigh time that the. piano-thumping craze di-ed out, and parents and students of musio that it is only detriment to the art, if not studied rationally and conscientiously. True art ought to be the revelation oi the Divine, and all that is pure and good. Many look upon pianoforte playing as a pleasant and an innocent P; way for the young to spend! an hour or so a day. In a sense, it may be, and glad ought tihey to be if they findl eodaoe and pleasure ig go doing; but, is it right playing, right practice? That is the vital question. ShciEear says, "Thøre is but one road to art, and that is- the steep and! toilsome way of fact." Let us therefore pursue our studies with a dis- tinet objoot in view, that ia, to elevate the art we are pursuing. True, we cannot all be a Lisizt, a Rubenste-ni, or a Padareweki, but we can all have Mty ideals, true and' noble aspirations; we can all put our sold into our art, even if we interpret only the easiest of good music. Finally let us be "true artists" in every sense of the words. Musio means harmony, haxmony means love, lovei means Gcd. E. W.

MR WM. GEORGE AND THE CHAIRMAN. A letter was read from Mr Wm. George re- lative to a statement at the last meeting attri- buted to the chairmon. At that meeting the Bo and discussed a case Joll which it was inci- dentally mentioned that an agreement had been prepared by Mr W. George. n Mr Wm. Thomas, the relieving officer, said that one of the parties had told him that Mr George had drawn out the agreement. He had seen it, and it looked as if it had boon prepared by a solicitor. ,d The Chairman: I simpliy stated what Mr Thomas said now. But, if Mir Georee denies that he made the agreement, I .accept his word MEAT SUPPLY. The Board at the last meeting relieved Mr Evan Humphreys, butcher, Portmadoc, from his contract to supply meat to the Workhouse, on the ground that he had under-quoted the prices. The Clerk had since asked Mr Hum- phreys and other butchers to send in tenders for the work, but only one tender had been reo ceived, viz., that of Mr Humphreys, and it was aCOepte QUESTION. The Boarding-out Comn-rittee had met to consider the new Order in regard to the board- ing out of children, and the clerk read the re- port. The committee recommended that the committee should continue in office until the end of the year, and to keep observation on future events m connection with the way pauper children were dealt with. The recommendation was adopted.

Saif yr eglwys henafol, yr hGlt. sydd yn perthyn i fywiokaerlh L, mewn cwm anghysbell rhwng Llanddeusaa^ a Rhosgoch. Rhadd fod poMogaeth y plwyd yn wasgaredig iawn, oherwydd 7chydig iawm o annedd-dai a welir yn agos idda. Fe gredn< fod yr eglwys hon gyda'r henaf yn yr ymys. a buwyd yn lwcus i'r adgywciriad syrthio l ddwylaw Mr Harold Hughes, yr hwn rydo4 bob amser yn ofalus i gadw nodweddion heal adeiLadau Eglwysig heb eu naweidio.

Nåà oes ond tua naw mlynedd ar pan y maent w-edi ymsefydlu yn Llanddeu- sant, a mawr yw y gwaith maemt wedi ei gyfLawni. Hir oes ac iechyd iddynt i barhau mewn diwydrwydd yn ngwinllan eu Har- wydd.
