FELL SENSELESS. I ALLEGED ASSAULT AT BURRY PORT. I At the Police Court -0.11 .Monday, Joseph Johnson, Penybedd Cottage, Pembrey, sum- moned Stephen Lord, Penybedd T'arm, Pem- brey, for assaulting him on .April 27th. Defendant said he acted in -self-defence. Plaintiff said he was a 'labourer on the fa,rm, and Lord was tne cowman. On the date in question he was assaulted by the de- fendant in th.e. cowhouse. Witness had pre- viously laughed be'ea-use the dog would not respond t-o defendant's call. Defendant I struck him on the forehead, and he fell senseless to the ground. Lord had previously I challenged him to nght, and witness had done nothing to provoke him. William Hammond, .farm labo'ui'e]', said lie was milking' a cow when the assault took place. Lord stated that plaintiff had threatened to stick 'a. fork into him. HammoT'd, in reply to the defendant, said that something was said about a fork. Defendant added that when plaintiff made the threat he said there was Italian blood in his veins. Johnson, re-caned, said he could not re- member what lie Tiad said. A nne c'f 10s. 'inc'lusive. was imposed.
:TERRIERS' FELD DAY. ,I
TERRIERS' FELD DAY. The field day of the IJanelly detachment of the 4th Welsh Regiment and the Welsh Field Company of the 'Royal Engineers on Saturday passed off very successfully. One half of the forces were S01.t to guard a portion of the Cwmllied'i Rescrvdi-r against an attaching force which had landed in Pembrokeshire. Having .advanced as far as Carmarthen, a de- tached force was sent to occupy Llanelly and to take the waterworks. There wa.s a good muster of all ranks. The F. Company Welsh Regiment, with the first section of the Royal Engineers, under the command of Lieu- tenants Trubshaw, Tregoning, and Waddell, moved off to take their position in defence of the reservoir. An attacking party, under Captain Bowen, Lieutenant Burn, and Lieut. John, moved off half an hour later, and tried to break through. The defending force had taken up a strong' position on high ground above the reservoir, which the attacking force found it dimcult to penetrate. The umpires, Major R. A. Nevin, Captain W. Bramwell Jones, Surgeon-Colonel Evans, the Adjutant of the 4th Welsh Regiment, and "Lieutenant Harries, decided that the manoeuvres ended in as near as possible a draw foT both sides. After "cease nre" the whole forces 'proceeded to Hengoed Farm, where an excellent tea. was provided, the Territorials afterwards march- ing homewards for Llanelly via Felinfocl. ¡ I
FOOTBALL -NOTES.-I
FOOTBALL NOTES. I WATTS'S TEAM, 3 points.; NEW DOCK STARS, riL The charity match organised by Jim Watts, LItLnelly, the ex-International forward, was played on Saturday, his team being opposed by the Llanelly Ne\v Dock Stars. Thé game was all the more interesting on account of the re-appearance of several ex-Llanelly players, such as Ben Davies, who at one time figured at outside half for Wales. In regard to the game, it was of a friendly nature, but, un- fortunately, Jack Auckland, Llanelly's cap- tain, sustained an injury to his wrist which necessitated his leaving the field. During the second half Harvey Thomas scored an un- converted try for Watts's Team, and these were the only points scored by either side. LLANELLY, 8 points; SWANSEA, nil. I The first inter-town League match played at Llanelly for many years past took place on Saturday at the Dimpath Grounds, the op- posing teams being Swansea League and Llanelly League. After an interesting and exciting game the homesters won by 1 goal 1 try to nil. The second half had been reached before either side scored, and Willie Roberts. the ex-International schoolboy, who was play- ing on the wing, was the first to cross, his try being unconverted. A movement was sub- sequently initiated by the Llanelly League captain, and it culminated in John Thomas (a. Pwll forward) scoring a try, which Willie Roberts converted. After the match the teams were entertained to tea by Mr. T. R. Mills, Salutation Hotel, a member of the LIanelly Football Club Committ-ee, who also defrayed the expense of a W.F.U. referee (Mr I E. E. Bailey). — o — NANTYMOEL'S DISAPPOINTMENT. I -The visit of the Llauelly Second Team to I Nantymoel had been looked forward to as the event of the season, and great was the disap- pointment on Saturday, when a telegram was received stating that the famous Scarlets were unable to make the journey because they e&uld not raise a team. Extensive pre- parations had been made for the attendance of a record crowd, and the Nantymoel Club, by the non-appearance of the'Tinplaters, con- sequently suffered a great financial loss.

A HOUSE OM WHEELS. I
A HOUSE OM WHEELS. I CURIOUS CASE AT THE POLICE COURT. i At. the Police Court on Monday the Urban I Overseers summoned John Eva.ns,baek of Station Road, for the non-payment of rates, and a curious defence was set np by the de- fendant. Mr.S. N. Powell stated that. the rates amounted to £.1 2s. 8d. Defendant: Do you consider this to be a house ? Mr. Powell: Yes, seeing that you have been living in it for eighteen months. It is one of the iinest little houses I 1'ave been in in my life. Defendant: I am. sorry to say that it only exists in your mind. I .contend that it is only a stage waggon, according- to Dickens, and I r i is St-i,! [ ii-.L eoiirse ?,, f not chouse. The waggon is stiR in course of construction, and I occupied it because I could not nnd a house that I could afford to pay the rent of. The caravan is on four wheels, and is on premises in respect of which rates are already paid. It is inside the workshop premises, in course of construction, and is there.for.e not assessable under the Rating' Act. Mr. Powell said the defendant had never object.ed to the rate before the Assessment Committee, although lie had been in-.ited to do so. The Magistrates'Clerk: But he says that the premises are included in premises already assessed. Is that so or not? Mr. Powell: No, sir. I The Magistrates' Clerk: What dc.es the liousecon&istof? Mr. PoweiL replied that it consisted ot a building with a drawing-room, kitchen, and bedrooms. Mr. Pow'ell said the defendant could appeal against the order. Defendant drew attention to the caravans on the Fair Feld, which were used as dwell- ings, in respect of which no assessment was made. Mr. PoweTl: But rates are paid for that ground, and they have only been there for a week or so, whereas you have been living in this house for eighteen months. The Magistrates's Clerk: How do you sug- gest to their worships that it is not a dwelling house ? Defendant: It. cannot ho .a dwelling-house, because it is on wheels. The Presiding Magistrate: But the wheels do not turn. The caravan may be there for twenty years. Replying to Mr. Powell, defendant stated that he had a wife and two children, who slept in the caravan. The Magistrates' Clerk (to Mr. Powell): Do you say that this building is separately assessed from the worshop altogether? Mr. Powell: Yes, sir. In reply to the Bench, Mr. *Powell said the workshop was rated at £5 10s., and what the defendant described as the caravan wa.s as- sessed .at £8 10s. The Presiding Magistrate: What do you say will be the value of this caravan when it is completed? Defendant: I will sell it to-day and deliver it to any party":f the 'county at Mr. Powell's rating, and that would be <E85. After defendant had made quotations from the Factory Act the Bench decided to issue a warrant for the payment of the amount.
I EisteAdfod at Uandefeiiog.
EisteAdfod at Uandefeiiog. A most successful and interesting eistedd- fod was held at the Mandefeilog National Schools on Wednesday of last week, under the auspices of the Llandefeilog Agricultural Society—a most go-ahead institution. Un- fortunately, the schoolroom was much tco small for the Purpose, so many .attending, and consequently the audience proved at times a very noisy one. Kidwelly young' people—we are extremely sorry to have to say this—were amongst the worst in this respect present. The committee had worked hard to ensure the success of the venture, and just a little more thoughtfulnesa for the comfort of the visitors would have been well. The services of Mr W. Cecil Williams Mus. Bac,, A.R.C.O., the well-known organist and choirmaster oi Tenby Parish Church, had been secured as the musical adjudicator, and the duties were carried out by him in a most excellent man- ner. Mr. Williams, being a musician to his finger tips, proved vastly superior to the or- dinary adjudicators at meetings of this kind. We sincerely hope to have the pleasure of getting' Mr. Williams to act in ,a similar capa- city in this neighbourhood soon again. Mr. Gomer Henry adjudicated the recitations, etc., in his usual thorough manner. Mr. Henry is well known and highly respected by all eisteddfodwyr. Mr. Gwladys Rees, Nant- llan, performed the duties of accompanist in a most admirable manner. She is yet very young, and, with more study of pianoforte playing, brilliant results are expected of her. In the unavoidable absence of Mr. Alfred Stephens, of Kidwelly, the chair was taken in an able manner by Mr J. Jones, Bryngwanws. Mr. Stephens, however, sent a. handsome con- tribution towards the funds of the eisteddfod, The awards were as follows:-—Solo for child- ren. under M: 1, W. Vaughan Treharne, PwU, Llanelly; 2, Miss M. Jones, Shop, Llande- feilog. Recitation for children: Miss Jones, Llandefeilog. Open recitation: Mr. Joseph Thomas, Pontyberem. Soprano solo: Miss H. A. Jones, Carmarthen. Tenor solo: Mr. G. Morris, Pontyberem. Bass solo: prize divided between Mr. J. Howells, Tenby, and Mr. D. Jeremy Rees, Carmarthen. Op.en solo: Mr I). R. Williams, Pembrey. Party of eight: Towy Minstrels, Mr. Ben Jones conducting. Male voice party: two parties competed—Towy Glee Singers, Carmarthen, under Mr. G. Morris: and the Kidwelly United, under Mr. D. S. Davies. The adjudicator, whilst awarding the prize to the Carmarthen- party, very highly .complimented the Kidwellyites upon their finished singing, and he felt sorry he could not divide the prize. Duett for eb ild- ren: The Misses Jones, Shop, and Jones, School House, Llandefeilog. Answers to questions given at the time: 1, Mr. Herbert Jones, who showed unusual knowledge of subjects not in every-day use; 2, Mr G. Jones. Mr. John Bowen, Lan House, was a most energetic hon. secretary, and Mr. Morris Davies, Llwynhelyg, an excellent hon. trea- surer.
THEFT OF BOOTS.I
THEFT OF BOOTS. I John Sullivan, labourer, was charged at the Police Court on Friday, with stealing a pair of boots, valued at 4s. lid. from the pre- mises of Messrs. Stead and Simpson. P.O. Williams proved the arrest, and stated that the defendant had nothing to say when he was charged at the Police Station. On the application of Inspector Jones de- fendant was remanded until Monday. The case was resumed on Monday, when Leo Newmark, Arcade, stated that lie saw the defendant, take the boots from outside the business premises of Messrs. Stead and Simpson. Witness informed the manager at once, and then went after the defendant, whom he overtook. Thomas George, manager to Messrs'. Stead and Simpson, said that in company with Mr Newmark he followed the defendant. After overtaking him witness found the pair of boots produced in his possession. Diefendant pleaded guilty, and admitted that he had been previously convicted for larceny for fourteen days. Defendant was sent to prison for one month.

COUfCIL ArD T P, E BPîNK LOAN. -0- INDENTURE OF CHARGE SEALED. A prolonged discussion took place at the monthly meeting of the Urban District Couu- cil on Monday night relative to the neW Harbour Bill with regard to the Bank of England loan. The Clerk read the contents of the indenture of charge, to which the Council \erc asked to arnx th&ir seal. The Chairman (Mr. E. T. Jones) proposed that the seal be amxed, which Mr. D. Janieg Davies seconded. Mr. John Thomas asked, theY weTe not going too f'ar before asking the rate' pavers whether they were .agreeable to its Bill. The Chairman: If the ratepsyers sa.y "NO" we cannot go a.nv further. The Clerk: The TJrba.n Council and Harbouf Trust have- already agreed in an infornls,1 wav that this indenture should be made witll the .Bank of England. There is nothing in it at all. M'r. N?han Grimtlis regretted tliat h? could not vote in favour of aRixing the seal 01 the Council' to the deed. He should like it to be clearly understood that the Trust were not borrowing the money at 3 per cent' interest. Mr. D.J.amcsDavie.s might laughr but be desired the ratepayers to iin(jerst-alict that the Trust would have' to pay 4 per ceo" _n1". interest. The Hank ot Jiîngland, nmvevv>' stated that it they were prompt, in then- paY-: m.e.nts, they would grunt a reduction of o per cent. He had no objection to that, but l I should be .clearly understood by the r,- t e payers, because it had gone about that the Bank had reduced the interest by cue Pee cent in regard to the loan. of .8236,000. Wi<?. regard to the ?40,000 they would have to pa{ 5 pe;r cent. interest, but if they were pi-olOP, in paying the instalments it would bs reduce d by one per cent. The Clerk, at the Harbor Trust meeting that day could net give 1% guarantee that the Inland Revenue would DO require a stamp duty on the whole E236,000 and the extra, ,840,000. That would mean 3t least .8300, which was an item they shout d consider. They would be legally bound a$ soon as the indenture was sealed, which ?"" merely a. protection to the Bank that td Trust would keep up their payments. He db ø not think it was absolutely necessary. T" Bill had been referred by the examiners the Standing Orders Committee, who perllao would sav that they had not complied ?? the Standing Orders. They might say th? the promoters ought to have applied to tlielia in time, and that they must present the 13111 next Session. The consequence would that they would have to go through all tbø printing and advertising of the Bill iu tb ø newspapers, and the stamp duty would h? to be paid again. ø The Clerk said there was no doubt that t,?g proper duty on the deed would be 2s. 6d. Pfd cent. in respect of the ?40,000, which w'o? ? amount, to ?50, and they would have to PAY in respect of the arrears of interest. TIJO deed in 1605, which was to all intents ?? purposes on precisely the same lines. auic?f ted to ?59 15s., instead of hundreds  pounds, as Mr. Griinths suggested. It ???g b? ad valorem on the ?40,000 and al-m on ? rate.of arrears. If the Inland Revenue w<? tII not accept that proposal he should tell tl"oll not to stamp the deed. They had really a ready paid on the old indenture of chargs .819,000 the duty m respect of it. Mr. Bramweli Jones, referring to the g. marks of Mr. Nathan Grimths witli regard st the interest, said if lie thought the Trl-l would not ba able to pay the interest proiuP .j; the whole thing' would be a failure, and Q would be better for them to drop it at ol1c': In reply to Mr. Simlett, Mr. D..1.

Why did they make it £40'q r when Hie scheme would only cost <E12,COO-j,, The Chairman said that, acting on the f,t' vice of coun9!el. the Trust determined tc? the amount at .640,000. They uxed a sul)9t"?r' tial sum so as to save the ox' pensc-. of goilig to.
