Borough Member in "the House." AS PUNCH SAW HIM. A recent issue of "Punch" contained the following amusing references to our Borough Member in its columns headed "Essence of Parliament (Extracted from the Diary of Toby, M.P.)" :— Above Crowd at Bar waiting to be sworn in, head and shoulders of OWEN PHILIPPS, Chairman of Royal Mail Steamship Com- pany, towered. Since House last met he has bought another fleet. 'Tis his custom of an afternoon. On the average pays a million- and-a-half sterling for goods received. My dear PHILIPPS," said CHARLIE BERES- FORD, looking up to him as if he were a mainmast that might presently be swarmed, "there's one thing left for you. You must buy the British fleet." Odd you should mention it," said Sir OWEN. "To tell you the truth, I had been thinking of it. If the deal comes off I'll ask you- to take command." Done with you," said CHARLIE, hitching up a pair of trousers preter-naturally wide over the foot.

DECEIVING TRADESMEN. Pembroke Dock Woman's Trick. A Month for False Pretences. At Pembroke Dock Petty Sessions on Satur- day—before Mr. J. Hitchings and other magistrates—Mary Ann Burder, single woman, of Tremeyrick Street, appeared to answer a charge of obtaining goods to the value of Is. 5d. by false pretences and with intent to defraud from Martha A. Saunders on June 11. It may be mentioned that the defendant had been before the magistrates on the previous Wednesday on a charge of false pretences, and the case had been adjourned. Martha Ann Saunders, wife of George John Saunders, said that she kept a grocer's shop in Bush Street, Pembroke Dock. On Saturday, June 11, defendant called at her shop at about 9 p.m. She gave the name of Mrs. Williams, of 22, Prospect Place, and gave an order for grocery amounting to' 3s. 4d. After she had given the order she said she would take a few of the things with her as she would want them before the other things arrived. Witness allowed her to take two pounds of sugar, a packet of cocoa, and half a pound of choco- lates, of the total value of Is. 5d. She asked how much the things came to, and when witness told her she said that she would have the money ready when the goods arrived. Witness s husband delivered the goods to the address given. Witness let defendant have the goods, believing that she was Mrs. Williams, of Prospect Place, and that she would pay upon delivery. George John Saunders, a shipwright in his Majesty's Dockyard, said that he was the husband of the last witness. He went out with the goods ordered by defendant, but failed to discover a Mrs. Williams at 22, Prospect Place. Defendant elected to be dealt with sum- marily and pleaded guilty. She said that she was sorry she had committed the offence. Another charge was then preferred against defendant for obtaining goods to the value of 2s. ld. from Donald Spence, manager of the Pembroke Dock branch of the Star Supply Stores by false pretences on June 14. Spence said that on the afternoon in ques- tion defendant came to the Star Supply Stores between four and five o'clock. She gave an order for grocery amounting to 10s. 8d. She said that she was Mrs. Williams, of 18, Bufferland Terrace, Pembroke Dock, and asked that the goods should be delivered on the following morning. Before leaving she asked if she could take a few things with her as she would require them for tea. He allowed her to take a dozen eggs, a pound of bacon, and half a pound of lard, of the total value of 2s. lgd. She said that the goods would be paid for on delivery. He afterwards sent a boy with the goods, but the latter brought them back. William Venning, of 49, King Street, who is employed as an errand boy by the Star Tea Company, said that on June 15th he took some goods to deliver at 18, Bufferland Terrace, Pembroke Dock, but he could not find the number, nor could he find a Mrs. Williams there. Accused pleaded guilty to this charge also. The next charge taken was that of obtaining goods, of the value of 3s. 2d., from Henry John Phillips on June 18. Wilfred Bond, of 7, Arthur Street, an assis. tant to Mr. Phillips, said that the defendant came into the shop on the evening in question. She gave an order amounting to 10s. 8d., and requested that it be sent to Mrs. Jones, of 3, Meyrick Street. He asked her who was Mrs. Jones, and she said I wish I was." He then asked her who was Mr. Jones, and she replied that he was a shipwright in the Dockyard. She asked if she could take part of the things as she wanted them for tea. Witness asked Mr. Phillips, and the latter instructed witness to let them go. Witness thought defendant was servant to Mrs. Jones. She took llb. of bacon, 61b. of potatoes, Is. worth of eggs, and a tablet of toilet soap. She said that she wanted the soap to bath the children. She asked for the remainder of the order to be sent by eight o'clock, and said that the goods would be paid for on delivery. Henry John Phillips, grocer, of Bush Street, also gave evidence, and said that he allowed defendant to have the goods, under the impres- sion that she was the servant for Mrs. Jones. Henry Lloyd, an apprentice to the last wit- ness, said that he took a parcel to deliver to Mrs. Jones at 3, Meyrick Street, but failed to find such a person. Police-constable Phillips said that he arrested accused under a warrant on the pre- vious Tuesday. When the warrant was read she said, I am guilty of having the things, but fetched them for Mrs. Jones, 24, Main Street, Pembroke." Police-constable Treharne said that he made inquiries at Pembroke, and he had failed to find a Mrs. Jones at 24, Main Street. Accused pleaded guilty to this charge also. A fourth charge was then preferred against accused of similarly obtaining goods of the value of 4s. lid. from Hugh Edward Hall, at Pembroke on June 21. Frances Mary Hall, daughter of Mr. H. E. Hall, Main Street, Pembroke, said that on the afternoon of June 21 defendant came into the shop and asked if some groceries could be sent out to be paid for on delivery. She gave the name of Mrs. Johns, of 14, Long Mains. Witness took an order amounting to 14s. 2d. Accused then asked if she could take a few things with her. She took a tin of plums, a pound of biscuits, a pound and a half of mixed nuts, a pound of prunes, a tin of con- densed milk, and two shilling boxes of choco- late. Hugh Edward Hall, grocer and baker, of Main Street, Pembroke, and Police-sergeant James also gave evidence, from which it appeared that the houses in Long Mains were not numbered, and no Mrs. Johns lived in the street. Accused once more pleaded guilty, and said that she had nothing to say in defence.* In reply to the Chairman, she said that she was 18 years of age, and she had no friends present in court. Superintendent Thomas said that the girl's father had complained to him that she had run away from him, but she had never before been before the court. The magistrates retired, and upon their return the Chairman said that the magis- trates were extremely sorry to see a girl of such tender years before them upon such a serious charge. She had been guilty of a crime for which she was liable to be sent to prison for three months. Four cases had been made out against her, and she was liable to three months' imprisonment for each, or a year in all. The magistrates had taken into consideration the circumstances of the case. "You have done this," the Chairman con- tinued, in rather a convincing sort of way. You have used the name of Johns rather freely. We thought at one time you were rather a stupid girl, but from what we have heard we think you cannot be so stupid as some of us thought you were. You have used a good deal of cunning, and have taken in business people, who are not easily taken in. You must have known that what you were doing was very foolish if only because you might have known it would be found out. We are sorry that your father is not here, and we are also sorry that you are too old to be sent to a reformatory. We are also sorry that we have no probation officer who could look after you." The magistrates, however, wish to deal with you in as lenient a way as they can. You will be sentenced to one month's nnprisonment in each case, the sentences to run concur- rently. We have reduced it so in order to give you an opportunity of turning over a new leaf. You will go to Swansea Gaol for one month's hard labour.

COST OF POLICE SUMMONSES. Alleged Breaches of Duty. Suit Against Pembroke Justice's Clerk. In the King's Bench Division on Wednesday the case of George v. Thomas came before Mr. Justice Scrutton for further consideration, having been part heard on circuit at Haver- fordwest. It was an action by Mr. William Davies George (suing as clerk to the Pembroke- shire County Council) against Mr. John Thomas, Pembroke Dock, to recover penalties alleged to have been incurred by the defendant for the omission of a statutory duty Imposed on him as clerk of the justices for the petty sessional division of the borough of Pembroke. The case set up for the plaintiff was that the borough of Pembroke is a borough having a population exceeding 10,000, with a com- mission of the peace separate from the com- mission of the peace for the county of Pem- broke, but having no separate court of quarter sessions. By a memorandum of agreement, entered into on June 29, 1858, between the jusitces of the county of Pembroke and the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the borough of Pembroke, it was agreed for the purpose of the police the borough of Pembroke should be consolidated with the county of Pembroke, and that the police rate to be paid by the borough for the number of constables tnereby agreed to be provided, should be equal to the rate paid by the county. Since the date of this agreement the duties of the police within the borough of Pembroke had been wholly discharged by the county police, and summonses taken out by the police returnable before the justices of the borough, and are from time to time issued by the defendant. The defendant's salary as clerk to the justices for the borough of Pembroke is paid from the borough fund. The defendant has from time to time paid over to the treasurer of the borough such fees as were payable to him as clerk of the justices, and has further paid over unappropriated fines, fees, and penalties arising out of any cause determined before the justices of the borough, and has deducted certain sums from the cost of summonses taken out by the police where such sums are not recovered from the party proceeded against, from the total sum due and payable by him tc the treasurer of the county. In the month of February, 1909, the County Council of Pembrokeshire required of the defendant that he should transmit to John Woodrow Cross, the treasurer of the county, an account for the years 1903 to 1908 inclusive, and all fines, fees, or other sums imposed or received in instalments, showing their appropriation and the sums payable to the treasurer, and to forward with the account a remittance for the amounts payable to the treasurer. The defen- dant had failed to transmit any account for the years in question. The defendant had rendered two statements of account, bearing date March 31, 1909, and June 24, 1909, in the form required, but had failed to remit such sums as were shown upon the accounts to be due and payable to the treasurer. The plain- tiff alleged that the defendant had committed breaches of his statutory duty, and claimed penalties from defendant for his omission to pay over the sums stated. The defence was that the sums which defen- dant refused to pay over were fees, etc., due from the police as prosecutors in cases dealt with by the borough justices, and he had not paid over such sums because they were pay- able out of the county fund, and he was entitled to deduct them. The defendant denied that he failed to transmit the amounts alleged in the statement of claim; that he had been guilty of any breaches of duty, or that the plaintiff was entitled to any penalties. The defendant contended that the statement of claim showed no cause of action. Mr. Abel Thomas, K.C., and Mr. Marlay Samson appeared for the plaintiff; whilst defendant was represented by Mr. John Sankey, K.C., and Mr. Vaughan Williams. After arguments by counsel, it was arranged that certain terms be submitted to his Lord- ship by agreement, and that his Lordship should give judgment the following day. On Thursday at an early stage in the dis- cussion Mr. Abel Thomas abandoned, on the part of the plaintiff, the claim for penalties, and the only question remaining was one of principle, as to the right of the county to the fines, fees, and costs incident to prosecutions in the borough, where such fines, fees, and costs had not been recovered from defendants. His Lordship, in delivering judgment, said the reason the case was adjourned from Pem- broke Assizes to London was for the considera- tion of statutes and authorities which were not available in Wales. The parties to the action were perfectly friendly,, and only required a decision as to principle. Mr. Sankey had admitted that he could not contend that the unappropriated fines imposed were not pay- able to the 'county. He should not seek to define the amount because some of the sums might be statute barred. The borough must bear the cost of the prosecutions they had in- stituted, and not claim or deduct such sums from the county. Having carefully considered the statutes and authorities, he must make a declaration in favour of the plaintiff as to the cost of prosecutions undertaken by the borough in which costs were not ordered or paid by the defendant, and that they were not chargeable to the county. There would be judgment for the plaintiff with costs.

W7alter Davidson, of Lewis Street, Pembroke Dock, was charged with being drunk and dis- orderly in Dimond Street on the previous evening. He said that he did not remember anything about it. Police-constable Warlow said that he saw the defendant in a drunken condition in Dimond Street the previous evening. He was using very bad language, and as he refused to desist witness and Police-constable Treharne locked him up. Defendant repeated that he knew nothing of it until he woke up in the morning. He was fined 10s. and costs 4s. 6d. NEIGHBOURS' QUARREL. Emily Furlong, a married woman, of 23, Waterloo, pleaded not guilty to a charge of using abusive language at Waterloo on June 21st. Mrs. Naish, a widow, said that she lived at 24, Waterloo. On, the morning of June 21st, about nine o'clock, her daughter called to her to come out. Witness's daughter was sweep- ing out the passage. Witness went out and complained to Mrs. Furlong about her little girl throwing dirt into the passage. Mrs. Furlong then abused her, and witness told her she would summon her. Abel James, labourer, of Waterloo, said that Mrs. Naish's little girl was sweeping in the front, and Mrs. Furlong's girl threw the dirt back. Mrs. Naish came out and then Mrs. Furlong came up. The two then commenced talking, and Mrs. Furlong used objectionable language. Mrs. Furlong admitted that she called Mrs. Naish a liar, but denied using any other abusive language. Mrs. Mary *Furlong, mother-in-law of the defendant, said that Mrs. Naish called defen- dant a liar. She heard all that occurred, and heard defendant call Mrs. Naish a liar, but nothing else. Mrs. Naish: Mrs. Furlong, you were not there. Mrs. Furlong: Yes I was. Mrs. Naish: No you were not. Mrs. Furlong: Yes I was. I'll speak the truth before God or man. I The Chairman: Answer the question; don't argue. Mrs. Naish: You heard her call me a liar Mrs. Furlong: Yes, and you called her one, too. Here the ladies engaged in a wordy warfare, which was quelled with difficulty. Mrs. Furlong when requested to stand down did so with obvious reluctance, remarking that Mrs. Naish was false, and she would like to say some more. The Clerk: That will do. We have had enough. The Chairman advised defendant to live with her neighbours more peaceably, and said that the case would be dismissed, each party to pay their own costs.

PEMBROKE PETTY SESSIONS. These sessions were held on Monday, June 27th, before the Mayor (Mr. Rees Phillips), Messrs. F. P. Tombs, J. Rowe, and B. Powell. THEFT OF A WATCH. Frederick Thomas Rolph, aged twelve, son of Charles Rolph, of Froyne's Terrace, Pem- broke, was charged with stealing a metal watch, value 4s., the property of William Thomas, on June 19th. Margaret Thomas, mother of the prosecutor, said that on Sunday about 10 a.m. she was upstairs when the boy called with the milk. She told him to go in and take a jug from the dresser. When she came down about ten minutes afterwards she found that the watch (produced) had been taken away. She had noticed the boy put something in his pocket as he was leaving the house, and she hurriedly dressed and went out. In the Square she met the defendant and she accused him of having stolen the watch. He told her that he had not got it, but she said she would hold him until he gave it up. He then told her he had thrown it into Mr. Griffiths's yard, at the same time pointing to the place. Her son William then came up and went with the defendant into the yard. William Thomas, son of the last witness, said that he went into the yard with the defendant and found the watch, which was his property, on top of a water-cask. He after- wards visited the lad's home and saw his mother to whom he handed the watch. Ann Rolph, mother of the boy, and Police- constable Owen also gave evidence. The con- stable arrested the lad at Freshwater East. When charged he said, I went into the house with the milk and took the watch. I then went down street, and when I came back Mrs. Thomas met me, and I threw the watch into Mrs. Griffiths, the baker's, yard. I went^vith Thomas to look for it, and we found it on a water cask." The constable conveyed him to Pembroke Dock Police Station, where he was subsequently liberated on bail. The boy pleaded guilty, and said that he was very sorry. Supt. Thomas said that the boy was most respectable, and nothing was known against him by the police. The Mayor said that the magistrates had decided to bind the lad's father over in the sum of L5 to be surety that his son was of good behaviour for six months. He also cautioned the boy that if he did such a thing again he would get the birch. THE SIMPLE LIFE. Fred Wightman and Arthur Wightman, described as mat menders, of no fixed abode, were charged with sleeping out on June 26th. Police-constable Warlow said that at 2.30 on the previous morning he found defendants sleeping on a hay rick close to Ferry Lane. He took them into custody. On one a sum of three half-pence was found, and on the other nothing, but both had matches in their posses- sion. He had had complaints about people repeatedly sleeping in these hayricks, and he had heard that the men were the worse for drink in Pembroke Dock the night before. One of the defendants said that he had been working in Pembroke Dock, but only in public- houses, and there the pay was mostly in beer. They went to Pembroke to find some lodgings, but were not successful, and then went down Ferry Lane for a doss. Supt. Thomas said that the defendants were a pair of able-bodied young men, quite capable of doing a hard day's work, but they were too lazy. They had been locked up at Tenby on June 22 for acting as pedlars without certifi- cates, and were fined and requested to clear out of the town. Prior to that they were locked up for sleeping out on a hay-rick at Tenby, but had a few shillings upon them and so escaped the law. They were sentenced to one month's hard labour. LOQUACIOUS DEFENDANT. John Sullivan, of East End, Pembroke. pleaded not guilty to a charge of being drunk and disorderly in East End on June 11. Police-constable Thomas went into the box, and commenced giving his evidence, being questioned by the superintendent, when defen- dant remarked: "I say, guvnor, put that paper away, and let the constable give his evidence from memory." paper away, and let the constable give his evidence from memory." Superintendent Thomas: How long have you been superintendent of police? Defendant: Never mind, guvnor. Do what I axes you. Supt Thomas: Go on with your evidence, Thomas. Proceeding, the constable said that at 11.10 on the evening in question he saw the defen- dant in East End. He was drunk, and was being assisted by a man named John Lloyd. Near the Railway Arch he fell against the door of a house. Witness went across to him and told him to go to his lodgings, and eventually he was assisted there by Lloyd. Defendant cross-examined the constable at some length as to his being assisted, and denied absolutely that he was the worse for drink, although he was not sober. The constable, recalled, said that he had received complaints about the defendant lying drunk on a seat in Ferry Lane earlier in the < evening. Defendant: I challenge you to bring that I man here. I was not drunk. I admit that I was asleep, but when I was asleep I recognised everybody that passed me, and I spoke to one. (Laughter.) Proceeding, he said that he was standing talking to Lloyd's "missus" when the constable came up and said, Now then, Benny, go inside." He said All right, guvnor," and went across the road. The constable admitted that he at first thought it was another man named Ben Williams, who was a friend of the Lloyd's, and that was why he said that. Defendant gave evidence, and said that he went down to Pembroke Dock that day, and started to walk back up Ferry Lane, but felt tired and went to sleep there. He got back to Pembroke about eleven o'clock and met Lloyd. They walked up together, and he stopped to talk to Lloyd and his "missus" before going home. Then the constable came up and said. Go home, Benny." He said, All right, guvnor," and went across the road. The con- stable afterwards walked in after him, but did not ask his name or address. Supt. Thomas cross-examined the defendant, and elicited from him that he had been living in Pembroke fourteen months, and had been working for Mr. Ford. He left work on the day in question at one o'clock, and admitted going to the Railway Inn, where he had six pints of beer. Supt. Thomas: Not a bad capacity. John Lloyd gave evidence on defendant's behalf, and said that he was not drunk. The Magistrates said that they were con- vinced that the case had not been proved, and it would be dismissed. FAMILY JARS. Edward Marra, of Banker's Row, was sum- moned for being drunk and disorderly on June 17. Police-constable Coffey said that on the evening in question he was called in at 11.45 p.m. by Mrs. Marra to prevent a disturbance taking place, as defendant was quarrelling with his sister-in-law. When he got to the house defendant challenged him to fight and used very abusive language. Defendant said that he was very sorry, but he had been making hay that day, and had had a drop of beer. He was not fighting, but only having a few words with his sister-in-law. Fined 2s. 6d. and 7s. 6d. costs. NO LIGHT. James Prout, farmer, of East Trewent, was fined Is. and 6s. 6d. costs for driving without a light on June 14.
