NARBERTH NEWS. OMISSroN We regret that we omitted mentioning last week in the account of the wedding of Mr and Mrs Bentley Mathias that, the Rev W. E. Stephens, Narbertb, officiatad. OO FOOTBALL. Unfortunately the match arranged with Tenby County School could not come off last Saturday, but this t3am is expected at Narberth, and we hope to witness a good game. OO PRIZE DISTRIBUTION.—The annual dis- tribution of prizes at the County School will be held on December 1st. We are promised the same rich variety of enter- tainment as in former years, and already some farces are being got up, and some Shakespeare plays are being rehearsed for the occasion. 00 NIGHT SCHOOLS.—Mr F. T. Bowen's evening classes at the National School are this year again flourishing. The number on the books is 62, and the attendance is very good. Classes are held on three nights in the week. These classes are open to all, and there is many a craftsman who has learnt and is learning the most necessary rules of mensuration under the able tuicion of Mr Bowen, whose enterprise in this direction is worthy of great praise as he has succeeded in keeping the evening classes for the long period of 8 years, an almost impossible feat in Narberth. OO THE FIFTI-I.-MOnaberS of the Constab- ulary in plain clothes serve to warn us or the dangers which our Constitution once ran of being subverted by the intrigues of our Spanish friend, Mr Fawkes. There were no serious accidents to chronicle, and the streets were unusually quiet. Most of the town's hatred of the Catholics was discharged in back gardens. OO HEALTH L.ECTUP.Es.-We are informed that Miss Knot, lecturer under the York- shire County Council, will deliver a course of six lectures on Friday afternoons at the County School on "Health and Hygiene in the Home." The lectures will be open to all interested on payment of the modest fee of 6d. We trust that they will be well attended. OO WEDDING.—On Saturday last, the 4th inst., a popular young couple from Nar- berth were quietly united in the bond of matrimony (by licence) at the Hebron Baptist Chapel, Saandersfoot. The con- tracting parties were Mr Levi James, of the Golden Sheaf, Narberth, draper (a native of Gelly, Llawhaden), and Miss Sarah Ann Williams, the only daughter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Williams, of Castle Terrace, Narberth. The bride, who was given away by her father, looked charming in a blue tailor-made costume with hat to match, and she was attended by Miss Gertrude Lawrence, of Saundersfoot, and Miss Davies, of Maengwyn, Clynderwen and the bridegroom was supported by Mr Thos. Evans, of Albert House, draper. The Rev W. E. Stephens, of Narberth, officiated, both of the contracting parties being members of his church at Narberth, the bride having acted for many years as organist. Mr Thomas David, The Foun- dry, Saundersfoot, presided at the organ. This was the first wedding since the chapel was registered, and a large number of the inhabitants of Saundersfoot were present to witness the ceremony. After the cere- mony the happy couple and their guests partook of the wedding breakfast at the Cambrian Hotel, which was provided by the host and hostess, Mr and Mrs John Ormond, in their usual excellent style. The happy pair left Saundersfoot by the mid-day train for Cardiff where part of the honeymoon was spent. OO MECHANICS' IUSTITUTE.—Thls noble INSTITUTION is again lifting its head ia our midst, and Narberth is to be congratulated on the fact. The Committee of this Institution has becn able to obtain funds (through the means of a Carnival, &c.) to renovate and repair the reading room which is under the auspices of this organisation. The work has been entrusted to Messrs Charles Davies and W. Stannet, and is approaching completion. When finished the room will present a cosy and comfortable appearance, and it is hoped that the enterprise of the Committee will be rewarded by a swelled list of subscribers and above all-intellige)at users of the books and papers provided. OO OBITUARY.—With deep regret we have to chron- icle the death of Mrs Martha Bowen, the wife of Mr. icle the death of Mrs Martha Bowen, the wife of Mr. William Bowen, of Lan Mill, which took place on Thursday, the 2nd instant, at the age of 67. The funeral took place en Sunday afternoon, when the remains were interred at the Baptist Cemetery, Nar- berth. There was a large number of relatives and friends present to pay their last token of respect. The Rev W. E. Stephens, of Narberth, officiated and Mr Llewellyn Rees, Lan Mill, carried out the duties of underteker.—Mr James Savage, of Teglyr, Narberth, died at his residence en Tuesday, the 7th instant. OO POLICE COUILT.-Before Mr R. 13. Euckby (in the chair), Alderman G. P. Brewer, and Councillor J. A. Davies, on Thursday, the 2nd inst. Mr John Roberts applied for the transfer of the licence of the Angel Inn to Mr James Williams, of Lettcrston. This was granted.—Mr W. R. James applied for the transfer of the license of the Bush Inn, Lampeter Velfrey, to Mr James Picton, late of Pembroke Dook. This was granted, as weie also transfers oti the Rutaren Hotel to Mr W. E. Jenkins, and of the Prince of Wales, Stepaside.—Mary Lewis, Middle Hill, Loveston, was charged with driving a horse and trap on the 19th ult. P.S. Thomas proved the charge. Defendant had been cautioned. Fined Is and costs.—Messrs John Rees & Sons, contractors, were summoned by P.S. Thomas for obstructing the highway at Narberth by placing gravel on the street. Defendant pleaded guilty, but held that there were extenuating circumstances which the magistrates ought to consider. P.S. Thomas stated that the obstruction was 10 feet from the curb stone, and that several people had fallen over it. The Con- tractor Lad been cautioned before with regard to some curb stones. On the defendants promising that the obstruction should be as small as possible in the future, and on their saying that they had made arrangements for the lighting of the places where work was in progress, the Bench adjourned the case for a moath.

HAVERFORDWEST NEWS. Below will be found the batting and bowling averages of the Haverfordwest Cricket Club for the past season. The figures are fairly satis- factory. indicating, as the Captain, Mr. J. LI. Lloyd, pointed out at the recent dinner, that the talent, is well distributed. But whilst it is true that there were no stars in the team, and that all were capable of doing their share, yet the positions held by Mr. W. Roberts and his son, W.E. are really remarkable. The-e two carry off the honours in both departments, the father heading the batting averages, and the son doing sii'gbtly the better with the ball. In the latter department there are two trundlers with a little advantage in point of average, but their wickets only total 11 each compared with 26 and 28 respectively. For the Roberts's to achieve this distinction in both batting and bowling is certainly something to be proud of. Werogratu- late the veteran on being able to still hold his own among the best of a younger generation, and also upon being able to put into the field a chip of the old block who can so worthily sustain the repu- tation he has made in the cricket of the county. It is fortunate, too, that in the future-very remote it is to be hoped-when Roberts senior hangs his harp upon the willow instead ot using the willow to hit boundaries, there will still be a Roberta in the team, for without that name to conjure with the Club could only look for dire disaster. The following are the batting averages of those who played in five innings and upwards:— ■ B S 2 ° o m O 43 m o "> BATTING AVERAGES. a -a « £ & c « 5s a o S 55 ° H S » > H W < 1 Roberts, W. 13133 235 12'0 2 Roberts, W.

After disposing of the Institute eleven by two to nil they met the Grammar School on the latter's ground last Thursday and won easily by 6 goals to 1. Playing down the hill the School pretty v/ell held their own during the first half and crossed over on level terms with the core one all. With the ground in their favour, however, the Heading Room ran away with their opponents and put on five goals. Next Thursday they play the Royal Artillery at Ptmbroke Dock, the Institute being booked to engage the same team at Haverfordwest to-day (Thursday.) Tho Institute eleven is considerably stronger than when it suffered defeat at the hands (or feet) of the St. Thomas' a fortnight since. They have a good back in George Adams to partner Parry, and this pair ought to playa very sound game. Two new forwards, Jones, of the Metropolitan Bank, and Iteeq, of the N. and P., are decided acquisitions. They will infuse just that dash into the attack that was so much needed. To- day they were to play the Royal Artillery on the Bridge Meadow, and on Saturday meet the Grammar School. This will be the first appear- ance of the Saturday team and its formation is occasioning a good deal of concern, as several of the best Thursday men are unable to play on Saturdays and their places will not, it is feared, be adequately filled. It is of the utmost import- ance that a strong eleven is got together, seeing that the week following they have to play Llan- reath at Pembroke Dock, in the first round of the "Owen Philipps" cup. Prices at last Saturday's market:—Geese, 5s to 6 6d each ducks, 2s 6d to 3s 3d each fowls, Is 9d to 2H 9d each beef, 5d to 8d per Ib mut- ton, 7d to 8d per Ib lamb, 7d to 8d per lb pork, 61 to 8d per Ib veal, 7d to8d per lb butter, lid to Is per lb eggs, 10 for Is potatoes, lSlba for Is. The annual meeting of the members of the St. Thomas' Reading Room took place in the Room on Thursday Evening last under the presi- dency of the Rector, the Rev. G. C. Hiibers. There was a good attendance. A very satisfac- tory report and balance sheet was submitted, showing that tie club is in a very satisfactory condition, the number of members being up to the average, whilst there is a good balance in hand. The report and balance theet wa« adopted, on the motion of Mr Codd, seconded by Mr F. Thomas. The vice-presidents and committee were re-elected, and Mr R. K. L ncas was unanimously re- appointed chairman of committee, hon. treafeuu r, and hon. secretary. A hearty vote of thanks was also accorded to him tor his pnvaluable services in the past. Mr Lucas briefly responded and a hearty vote of thanks was accorded to the annual subscribers and donors of papers. It was agreed to have the annual supper in connection with the room on a date yet to be fixed. This concluded the business of the meeting. < < Mr Sydney A. Bowler (of Messrs Rees Bros.,) was recently presented at a meeting held in St. Mary's Church Vestry, with a handsome marble clock, subscribed for by the Vicar and congrega- tion, on the occasion of his marriag", in recogni- tion of his services as chorister for over eight years. The Vicar (Rev. J. H. Davies) and Mr F. J. Warren, who with Mr H. Maurice had collected the subscriptions, made complimentary speeches after which the Mayoress (Mrs W. J. Jones) gracefully made the presentation. Mr Bowler suitably replied, and a vote of thanks was ac- corded to the Mayoress on the motion of Dr. Greenish, seconded by Mr H. J. E. Price.—The Mayor acknowledged the compliment on behalf of the Mayoress, The clock bore a suitable inscrip- tion. A special meeting of the Local Managers of the Haverfordwest County School District (Tasker's Girls' School), was held in the Council Chamber, Haverfordwest, last week. The Rev. G. C. Hiibers presided and there were also present Mrs S. B. James, Miss Evans, Mrs Hilbers, Miss Ada Thomas, Rev. J. H. Davies, Rev. W. Mendus, and Mr T. L. James. The principal business was to consider the bnsiness of the hostel. It was explained that it had been decided to try the experiment of establishing a hostel for board- ers at the School for two years but that it had not proved to be a success and that the time had now arrived when if they intended to abandon it notice should be given. A good deal of discussion took place and it was eventually decided to aban- don the experiment at the end of the two years dating from the original resolution of February 27th, 1904. Thanks were expressed to Miss Anderson, the headmistress, and her sister for the assistance they had given the Governors in conducting the experiment. It was afterwards decided that the Prize Day should be Decem- ber 14. The Men's Institute has just received a very acceptable present, in the shape of a large eight- day clock, from Mr B. H. Munt, jeweller, High Street. • • The municipal contest took place on Wednes- day in last week and resulted in the return of the four old members. The declaration was made by the Returning Officer (Alderwan T. L. James) at about 9.20 from the Corn Market to a big crowd, as follows- ELECTED. Isaiah Reynolds 696 J. H. Bishop. 616 W. J. Jones. 601 G. Merchant Phillips 563 NON-ELECTED. Henry Millar 294 The poll was a large one, about 1000 out of about 1200 possible recording their votes. Mr Reynolds' figures are said to form a record top-of- the-poll vote, and he is to be congratulated on the hearty endorsement which his services on the Council received. After the declaration, Mr. Reynolds came to the window and had an enthu- siastic reception. He said his heart was too full to express his thanks to them for the magnificent position at the head of the poll they had placed him in. He looked upon it as a vote of confi- dence in himself, and appreciation of his actions on the Council during the four and a half years he had been a member. It would stimulate him to do his duty even more loyally in the future than in the past. He was proud that this had not been a political battle, but a citizens' battle and was also pleased to see the excellent spirit displayed by all the caniddates (applause). The Mayor (Mr W. J. Jones) was also heart- ily cheered on coming forward to return thanks. He said it was very gratifying to him to have again polled over 600 votes, having that day re- ceived only ten less than on the occasion when head of the poll. It '.vas the fourth time be had been returned at a contest, and he appreciated the confidence that had been placed in him and continued—(applause). Mr Howard Morse returned thanks on behalf of Mr Bishop, who in consequence of his recent illness, could not remain to the end, and Mr G. M. Phillips also acknowledged the confidence that had been reposed in him. At the Roose Petty Sessions on Saturday—be- fore Mr Joseph Thomas (in the chair), Mr. W. Davies and Mr A. W. Massey—John Jenkins, of Thornton, was convicted of using a trap without a liceuse at Broad Haven on Aug. 17, the day of the sports, Mr. Whitaker, acting Supervisor, and Mr E. P. Bailey, Excise Officer, proved the case. As there had been a previous conviction, the Bench had no alternative but to impose a fine of Y,5, but they recommended the Board of In- land Revenue to reduce it to L- I and costs-a re- commendation which is invariably listened to.

Joint Counties' (Cardigan, Car marthen and Pembroke) Association (London.) This association held its seoond Bohemian Concert, the first of the present season, at Frascati'e, Oxford Street, London, on Thursday Evening, 2nd Novem- ber. Abel Thomas, Esq., K.C., M,P., presided. I There was a very large attendance of member* with their wives and friends, An excellent musical pro- gramme was provided to which the following artistes, under the direction of Mr J. M. Picton, contributed: —Miss Amy Evans and Miss Hilda Snelling, Mr. David Evans, Mr Stanley Davies, Mr John Bardsley, Mr Kenneth Park, Mr Wilson James and Mr Sidney Jones. Mr. David Richards, A.R.C.O., was the pianist. The following members acted as stewardsMessra J. Bowan Davies, D. J. Davies, T. E. Jones, J.P., J. Morris, L. J. Phillips, J. W. Samuel and Tom Williams. Mr J. Bowen Davies, M,A., L.L.B., in moving a vote of thanks to the Chairman, said that it was very good of Mr Abel Thomas, who was a busy man and occupied a prominent place in public affairs, to have t,hus honoured them. The object of the ?Association was not to enhance any particular institution or in- dividual, nor to seek any profit, but to give Welsh- men in London an opportunity of meeting one another in a social way. They heartily thanked tb. Chairman for coming, and hoped he would honour them again with his presence. Mr Abel Thomas, in reply, said that it seemed to him he had been brought there under false pre- tences inasmuch as he did not know that he would be expected to make a speech. (Laughter). He had only one fault to find with Mr Bowen Davies, and that was, that he had forgotten to mention the ladies. (Laughter). He was a younger man than himself, and should, therefore, have them more in mind. (Laughter). He was sure the Association would benefit both the ladies and the gentlemen. He never forgot that be was a Pembrokeshire man- (cheers)—and he knew that such was the case with the natives of Cardigan and Carmarthen. These counties were the most, important in Wales, and he hoped the Association would prosper. It was a good thing for all parties to fraternise in this way, and he was delighted to meet his fellow countrymen where politics would not be discussed. He thanked them for asking him to preside. It had been a greater pleasure to him to come amongst them, he¡was sure, than for any one of them to have him there. (Pro- ion ged obeers). The Cooeers was brought to a conclusion with the Welsh National Anthem. The Association is now well launched on its way, and s very successful season is anticipated. Applica- tions for membership should be made to the Hon. Sec., Mr H. Waiters, 11, Rutland Park Mansions. Willesden Green, N. W.

The negotiations between the coal-owncrs' and workmen's representatives for the revision and re- newal of the agreement under which the Coal Trade Conciliation Board for Monmouthshire and South Wales was established were opened on Saturday. The demands made on the respective sides are indi- cated pretty fully, which shows that the forecasts which have previously been made were correct in all particulars. With regard to the minimum, the workmen propose that it should be raised from 80 to 85 per oent., and that the maximum of 60 per cent. should be deleted; on the other hand, the demand of the masters is that the mini- mum shall be reduced from 30 to 20 per oent, and that the selling equivalent shall be enhanced.

[ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. J YN AMSANG EINTADAU THE ANTIQUARIES' COLUMN. MANUSCRIPTS OF STEPHEN LEWIS (Canon of St. David's.) From the Bodleian, Oxford, by the Rev. J. T. Evans, Tyrhos, Fishguard. The following Letters by Stephen Lewis, like those of William Gambold, are addres- sed to Dr. Browne Willis. The first bears no date. but was probably written in 1718. I believe that I am correct in stating that they have never before been printed. Pos- sibly the last Pembrokeshire man who ex- amined these documents was Richard Fen- ton who refers to them somewhat vaguely in his Historical Tour." To Bishop Basil Jones and E. A. Freeman I think they were unknown. Stephen Lewis was Rector of Narberth and Pwllcrochan in 1716 (" Amsang, vol. ii., p. 15); he was appointed Prebendary (Sixth Cursal) 1717; elected Residentiary (Supernumary) 1723 (Actual) 1729 (" His- tory and Antiquities of St. David's" page 364); he died in 1738 (" Amhang," vol. ii. page 16). [MS.
