Miniature Rifle Shooting. OPEN MEETING AT LLANELLY. I RIFLE SHOOTING FOR LADIES. I The competitive meeting organised by the Welsh Miniature Rifle Association at Llanelly on Saturday proved a huge success. Competi- tors were present from all parts of South Wales, and praised the excellent arrangements made by Mr. H. S. Burn and the Llanelly Club. Lady Stepney visited the range during the day, and was an interested spectator of the various competitions. For the first time on record ladies competed at a Welsh meeting, and Mrs. A. M. Jones and Miss Stepney de- monstrated in an unmistakeable manner their efficiency with the rifle. The officials of the meeting were:—Range Committee, Messrs. D. J. Griffiths (Maesteg), J. Allen (Tondu), H. S- Burn (Llanelly), and L. George (Bryn); statis- tical officers, Messrs. C. Talmage (Caerleon), T. Edwards (Nelson), T. Jones (Newport); sec- retary, W. H. Dean (Caerlcon). The championship prize, a silver tea service, was the gift of Miss Stepney, who afterwards presented the prizes: In replying to a vote of thanks Miss Stepney expressed her pleasure of seeing such a large number of visitors at the range, and, referring to the ladies competing, she humourously remarked that, possibly, it was a good thing they were not nearer West- minster, as Cabinet Ministers would prove I easier targets to hit than those provided by the Welsh Miniature Rifle Association (loud laughter). As a mark of appreciation of her Ii gift. Mr. D. J. Griffiths (chairman of the W.M.R.A.) asked Miss, Stepney, to accept the gold badge of the association.

Local Contractor. I SUED AT CARDIFF. I At Cardiff County Court, last week, Samuel I Harris, Cardiff, sued John Davies, Lakefield Yard. Llanelly, for £ 30 on a bill drawn by P. Lawrence and accepted by the defendant. The defence 'was a denial of the signature. Mr. I Gordon Williams appeared for Harris, and Mr. Clarke Williams (instructed by Randall, Saun- ders, and Randall, Llanelly) defended. Harris, a registered money-lender, of Cardiff, said he had several transactions with -Lawrence, as well as Davies, and the latter had backed several bills. On oath the defendant denied that the signatures on the bills were his, and declared that he did not remember the letter written by his -clerk, and signed by himself, on September 14th, asking Harris for terms in connection with a loan of £ 200. His Honour: Did your clerk write the letter, and you added the signature? Davies: I don't remember. It looks like my writing, too. Whose signature is it on the bill?—I don't know. I asked Lawrence who put the signa- ture. and he said h would be all right. Why didn't you bring him here to-day to say it was not your signature, if you thought it was a forgery?-I could not say. Edwin Harries, clerk to John Davies, said he wrote all the letters produced, as well as the signature of John Davies. In his opinion, the signatures on the two bills produced were not those of Mv D c < His master was wrong in saying he had g ..] letters, even the o,, e lo i Mr. Clarke WiLi n •> »» the difference in the evidence of his witnesses showed the credibility of their story.

The Second Starr-Bowkett Society I To the Editor of the Llanelly Mercury." Sir,—According to my promise, I will now explain the position of the above Society, ac- cording to the balance sheet issued on April 30th, 1910: £ Outstanding mortgages 4669 At Bank 760 Unpaid Interest 25 £5454 £ Value of Shares 4209 Undivided Profits 1245 L5454 I have to assume some of the following figures, because the directors consider it pru- dent on their part, and to their personal bene- fit, to refuse to provide me with the necessary particulars to enable me to formulate my scheme, although a resolution was unani- mously passed by the shareholders ordering them to do so. £ The Mortgages executed free of interest are about 3269 Mortgages bearing interest under Rule 31 1400 At Bank • 760 Unpaid Interest 25 £5454 My task now is to solve the question by showing clearly the ways and means by which it can be done. It has vexed and worried the members for years how to throw off the yoke of the secretary and the directors. It has been said even by most of the officials that it is impossible to terminate the Society-that it must run its course. In that case it can run for twenty years or more. I agree it is im- possible to stop the Society as it is, but we can transfer it to a permanent building society, and this could be accomplished in three months' time. And the whole of the members would benefit in doing so, except I the officials. We can use the £ 1400 under Rule 31 by transferring the mortgages to a per- manent society. These mortgagees will not suffer in any way: they will be subject to the condition of their present mortgages. We can use the £ 1400 and the C760 which are at the bank to provide the unprovided shareholders at the rate of S75 per share, free of interest, for 71, years, and their mortgages to be free also. They will be subject to the rules of this Society, and enjoy the whole of the privileges that their fellow-members enjoy at present* These members have P.25 in the Society, which would make up the iElOO; or they can get the proposed interest on the £75 and their sub- scriptions, and also their share of the surplus after all the costs have been paid. Mr. Editor, have the directors of either of these societies at any time made such an honest and just offer to the members? It will not be necessary to pay interest on the whole of the iE3269 outstanding mortgages. There might be still about £2 per share to pay on the mortgages which were granted in 1898, and iCS per share on those granted in 1899, P,16 per share on the <6900 granted in 1900, and £24 per share on those granted in 1901. All these mortgagees have sufficient money in the Society to redeem their mortgages. If the mortgagees who received advances in 1902 only pay a few pounds per share, they will be able to redeem their mortgages; so that interest will have to be provided only on mortgages granted from 1903 to April, 1910. About C290 would be sufficient on the outstanding mort- gages, and about E280 on the unadvanced shares; total, £ 570. So we should still have about P.679 in hand. After paying all the costs out of the said £ 679, the remainder could be divided among the members. We ought to allow the unadvanced shareholders to have a little more per share than other members, as compensation. These members will be very foolish to withdraw now, and accept £ 29 per share under the present rule. There is no rule with the Society that can compel them to ac- cept the C29. These members will get a great deal more under my scheme. This scheme which I pro- pose will, without the shadow of a doubt, if adopted, enable the directors to wind up the Society in three months. The Secretary, when he saw my scheme, condemned it root and branch. He could not find words bad enough, even from the vocabulary of the "Old Nick," to pour out against the scheme and its author. Why? May I remind the members of the opin- ion expressed by the late Lord Chief Justice of England on these societies, that they are "cor- rupt and fraudulent." No one knows of these statements better than the directors and the Secretary. At the last annual meeting the directors were accused of neglect of duty, which they had not discharged as they should. It was stated that they ought to have terminated the Society by transferring its liabilities to a per- manent building society years ago, and that they could have done and would have done so had it not been to their interest not to do I' so. They allow the annual meetings to be held six months after the time specified in the rules. The fact is they have never attended to anything but the drawing of their fees for attending meetings. They have allowed the Secretary to be their dictator and master, in- stead of being their servant. Consequently', it is full time for the members to take the mat- ter into their own hands, unless they are pre- pared to allow the Secretary and directors to squander their hard-earned money in extrava- gant management expenses. The directors, even Messrs J. Beynon and J. Walter Thomas, who have enjoyed this privilege for years, do not appear to urj erstand what their respon- sibilities to the shareholders are. Indeed, the majority of them will readily admit that they have no idea what the position of the Society is, and all they are able to do when asked a question with regard to it, it signifies not how simple the question might be, all the answer they can give is to refer you to the Secretary. Indeed, they admit that they have never seen even the books of the Society, never read its rules, and, consequently, are perfectly igno- rant of the powers' vested in them by the Act of 1874. The truth is they are merely mario- nettes, who occasionally meet for the sake of the fee, and when the wires are pulled by the Secretary the figures move, and these are the very persons who have been entrusted with the welfare of the Society. Indeed, the Secre- tary admitted at the annual meeting that he manages the whole of the affairs of the Society himself, and we may be pretty certain that the management does not militate against his own interests. I ask Messrs Beynon and J. I Walter Thomas if this is not so, because they 1.- l' appear i-o ue always ready to carry out the I' Secretary's bidding in every shape and form. j If they have anybody's interest at heart, save the Secretary's and their own, why is it that they do not bestir themselves to terminate the Society, instead of spending the money of the members lavishly on the management of the Society? Have they ever thought that the ¡' monies of widows and orphans have been locked up by them for no other purpose than that of reaping some benefit out of it ? Why is I it that they allow the Secretary to invest so much of the Society's money under Rule 31, that is, upon the properties of persons who are not members of the Society, unless it is for personal gain? Let them answer these ques- tions if they can. Do they not know that the courts have ordered the closing of these societies so soon as possible, years ago, be- cause they were adjudged by the Lord Chief I' Justice of England to be fraudulent societies, or, in other words, societies established for the ¡ purpose of defrauding the public? Mr. John Harries, the late chairman of this Society, in- formed me that he had to make a determined stand against advancing monies under Rule 31, because it was an injustice to the members. He was denounced by the Secretary and some of his co-directors in no uncertain terms, and was openly told that he gave more trouble than all the other directors put together. I only wish we had another chairman like him, in- stead of the present plastic chairman, who can be easily moulded to the shape and form which the Secretary desires. Will those members who are anxious to re- medy the present unsatisfactory state of affairs I and to wind up the Society communicate with —Yours truly, —Yours truly, DAVID PHILLIPS. Lloyd Street, Llanelly, December 13th, 1S10.

Cottage Homes. I To the Editor of the Llanelly Mercury." Sir,—Although not at present sitting on the Board of Guardians, I watch its movements, and consider that homes for the children built away from the Union would pay the rate- payers better than having them inside the Workhouse grounds. I worked for an indus- trial trainer, which eventually the Local Government Board recommended. Now, if workhouses are done away with, it will be, better for the homes to be built away, since they will always be letable. Nobody would rent a cottage within the grounds; so we have no need to build within the grounds to disad- vantage; and we pay the trained nurse.—I am, etc., AN OLD U U AKDlAN. I «.

Tumble Notes. I To the Editor of the Llanelly Mercury." Sir,—In reply to your correspondent at Tumble, I think if he gave more of his time to finding out facts than looking after other people's affairs he would not be so liable to make mistakes, as the street lamps have no- thing whatever to do with the District Council, but they belong to the inhabitants of the vil- lage, who pay for them by subscription. (He must be backward with his subscription, and the committee had better look him up for it.) If he thinks he can give better light to the lamps than he can to the subject, he is in- vited to give them a trial for a week, by making arrangements with the lamplighter.— I am, etc., THE LAMPLIGHTER.

— —————- Veteran Reserve. To the Editor of the Llanelly Mercury." Sir,—In accordance with the provisional re- gulations issued by the War Office with regard to forming a Veteran Reserve, the Territorial Association is compiling a register of trained men now resident in the county, and who are not at present attached to any unit or corps of the King's Forces. It is believed that there are a very great number of such men in full health and vigour throughout the country, and that the majority of them having already obtained a military training would be willing, in the case of the imminent risk of invasion, to volunteer their services for the defence of their country. Attention is called to the following para- graphs of the regulations:— 33. (2.) Only the following will be eligible to serve:— (a) Officers who Tendered satisfactory service for at least one year in any of the military forces of the Crown, provided that they are not on the Active List of the Regular Army nor of the Territorial Force, and that they do not belong to the General Reserve of Officers, Special Reserve, or Territorial Force,. Officers who have served in any of the military forces of the Dominions, Colonies, or Protectorates of the Empire, and are no longer liable for ser- vice therein. (b) Ex-soldiers of the Regular Forces (who are no longer liable to be called out for mili- tary service) who have completed their origi- nal engagement, or who have been discharged by purchase after not less than one year's ser- vice. (c) Ex-soldiers of the Special Reserve who have completed their original engagement, or who have been discharged by purchase after not less than one year's service. (d) Ex-Militiamen who have completed one period of engagement. (e) Ex-Imperial Yeomen and Ex-Volunteers not serving in the Territorial Force, and Ex- members of analogous Colonial Forces who have completed four years' efficient service. (f) N.C.O's and men of the Territorial Force or Territorial Force Reserve on discharge therefrom. (g) Individuals in possession of a war medal duly granted to them. 2. The ages at which retirement from the Veteran Forces is compulsory, are :Officel's, 60 years; sergeants, 55 years; other ranks, 50 years. 34. Subject to the exigencies of the recognised military forces, N.C.O's and men may be al- lowed the use cf military rifle ranges. Small ,arm ammunition for practice can be obtained through the Countv Association on payment. 35. Members of Veteran Reserve will not be drilled or exercised as armed forces (hut ap- plication has- been made to the War Office that they should be allowed to wear uniform on special occasions). 36. Distinguishing badges will be provided in time of war, as required by the Hague Con- vention. In these circumstances may I appeal to those of your readers who live in this county, and are trained men according to the War Office definition, to be as good as to forward a Registration Form duly filled up to the Secre- tary of the Territorial Association, the Guild- hall, Carmarthen? Forms may be obtained from Officers of the Territorial Force, Instructors, and the Secre- tary and members of the Association. Registration implies no obligations during peace time. It is hoped that ex-officers as well as ex- members of the rank and file will furnish the I particulars asked for.—I am, etc., J. HILLS JOHNES, LT.-GEN., V.C., G.C.B.. Chairman, Carmarthen T.F. Assoc.

Ponthenry. To the Editor of the Llanelly Mercury." Sir,—We will be very thankful to you if you will give a small space in the Mercury to these few lines. Of all places, this is the worst I know of. If you travel the four counties you will not find its equal in regard to the roads. Harries Terrace and Bargoed Terrace are something awful to think of- about a foot of yellow clay and more in some parts of the road. We cannot get out without going over private property, and the houses inside are nothing but clay. Curbs have been put down in front of Bargoed Terrace, and about three to four inches of clay inside the curbs. Is not this a lovely walk to a row of nice houses, about twenty in number? We have to pay £1 per month rent for such a place. We have to cross the fields, over private pro- perty, and down to the railway, to meet the butcher's cart, and many other carts, or go without anything, because their horses cannot pull up through the clay. Horses have to rest often when pulling empty carts, which I noticed the other day. I do not think that any kind of inspectors know anything about Ponthenry, or, if they do, they must be coming after dark or before daylight. The greatest part of the drains at the backs of Harries Ter- race and Bargoed, Terrace, such as pigs' cots and so on, comes out between Harries Terrace and Mrs. Griffiths, the Mount's, premises, and into the drains where the water-pipe is laid to supply the houses with water. This is a nice thing for a person's health. Indeed, it is very hard upon us. We cannot go to chapel on a Sunday without trespassing, to get out to the road or railway. But Sunday is v-ery nearly out of fashion here during the last six months. We are all working, or very nearly so. We do wonders here on Sunday, with all hands and full work, except cutting coal. The colliers get Sunday, and only them. The roads are so bad that parents are obliged to keep their children home from school, as they would be up to their knees in water and clay before they were two hundred yards from their homes. I shall give up this' time; this is not half of what should be published.—I am, etc.. CLAY PRISONER.

The Uangennech Nurse. To the Editor of the Llanelly Mercury." Sir,—Please allow me to inform "Fairplay" that if I don't ascertain the real facts of the!' case concerning the nurse, I ascertain the real facts of the condition of the place and my fellow-workers at present. The remarks about appointing a nurse were "a village or a Queen's nurse," and not two as misprinted. If only one voice dropped on "Fairplay's" ears that has called for an assistant doctor, that very one has touched the whole workmen's feelings in the meeting, whether he had a grudge against the doctor or not. As for the motor car, everyone rejoice to see him having a respectable turn-out, in spite of all his non- patronisers. It is quite true that all the ministers were present at the meeting, but two only out of four delivered their opinions on the matter. The other two kept silent. One of the two speakers was in favour of the nurse, and pretended to know all the affairs of the village; whilst the Baptist minister was in favour of the nurse, but could not see that the villagers could afford to maintain her, and so touched the real feeling of the audience, as well as that of the writer, thus making his opinion more valuable and better respected than Fairplay's" opinion. May I ask "Fair- play" what is the meaning or what is the work of the superintendent nurse ? Is it not to look after and inspect inferior nurses' work, to see that they do their duties properly according to rules? "Fairplay" can divide his in two, in stating that the organisers of the movement do not compel anyone to subscribe. What about the cards that have been sent to each member of the committee, expecting them to subscribe from five shillings upwards, and the lady collectors that have been appointed to go round the village to collect towards the nurse, and who call at some houses two or three times, and even meet the men on the road on pay day, and beg a shilling from some of them. All honour to the nurse, who- soever she may be, but an assistant doctor we need in the village at present. If his salary would be three times as much, we can expect it back in his duty. As for the present nurse, "whether she will be able to cope with the nursing of the village single-handed," we have not had the chance to know yet; she seems strong enough now to do all the nurs- J ing of the village, but for her health, which is out of our reach. Does "Fairplay" intend em- ploying a nurse to watch the nurse's illness, and to guarantee about a hundred, pounds a year for her? Talking about the benefit of the poor, the present nurse has benefited the vil- lagers, when no one has to subscribe towards her maintenance, and, from reports, has nursed several poor families free of charge. "Fairplay" has come out under a false pre- tension by saying "that it is far from his de- sire to injure the present nurse." What about the principle and harmony between the two nurses ? One gets a guarantee of from thirty to forty shillings a week, with all she needs for her work, whether on duty or not. whether attending the poor or rich, while the other nurse must be withouLanything if the poor people are unable to pay her, or if she is not on duty. Why is not the proposal of the first meeting carried out, to have a general meeting after the ladies' meeting? A definite answer to this question from "Fairplay" w-ill give satisfaction to many besides the writer. Par- I don me for taking so much of your space,—I í am, etc., JUSTICE.

CATARRHAL COLDS and I STUBBORN COUGHS. Famous Girl Preachers cured by VENO'S LIGHTNING COUGH CURE. Mrs. Storr, the well-known evangelist, and mother of Frances and Rose Bradley Storr, the famous girl preachers, writing from 48 Abbot Street, Don caster, says :I\'[y two girls were never free from a stubborn, choking cough and nasal catarrh. Frances had her tonsils cut, but the cough got chronic, and I was frightened of her going into consumption. I tried everything, but nothing did any good until I tried Veno's Lightning Cough Cure. I gave her the first dose one afternoon, and it immediately brought up the phlegm, and stopped the cough, and the same evening she preached to a crowded congregation.

TRADE OF THE PORT. A better state of things prevailed at. the Llanelly Docks during the past week and a fair amount of tonnage was handled. Were it not for the weather the aggregate would have been higher. The cranes on the dock side were busy dis- charging a big quantity of pig and scrap iron for the local works The total tonnage handled amounted to 9,697 tons, an increase on the previous week of 3,988 tons, and compared with the corres- ponding period of last year an increase of 3,399 tons'. The imports amounted to 4,882 tons, and were composed of pig iron, 2,759 i-i s t 199 tons: scrap iron, 1,369 tons; bricks, 1-99 tons; and 356 tons of gas coal for the Llanelly Gasworks. The exports amounted, to 433 tons of tinplates, 3,249 tons of coal, and 1,133 tons of lime. There is no improvement, to report in the coal trade and the collieries almost without exception are having idle days. Stocks are. very ,heavy. The tinplate trade could not he busier and several works are handicapped by a shortage of mill and lurauce men. Works are booked well over next year, and are already being pressed to accept orders to September ZOth. All the steelworks are booked up with orders at good prices. The erection of the new mills at the Old Castle Works and the Welsh Tinstamping Works is in a good state of progress.
