Lloyd, Porth; Thomas, Tudor Davies, Cymmer. and Mr. Referring to the services of the com- mittee during the. strike, the Chairman said the Porth Distress Committee had fed an average of 1,500 per day at a cost of lvd. per-bead. At the Llwyncelyn sec- tion they had fed an average of 250 per day at a cost of less than lid. per head (hear, hear). The ebilcli-en had all been satisfied and had received good wholesome food. Everything had been conducted with entire satisfaction and with the best of feeling throughout applause). Since the end of the strike, ;£.¡} had been given out in doles. He wa§j i.ot sure that the children did not look better after the strike than before (laughter and applause). Mr. J. T. Jones,-in a happy speech, proposed the loyal toast and briefly re- ferred to the King's visit to South Wales.

An excellent address on relief work was given by Mr. J- T. Jones and was greatly appreciated. The usual vote of thanks brought the proceedings to a. close.

Rnondda Interviews. TWO YEARS AGO AND TO-DAY. The following brief account of an inter- view with a Rhondda woman two years ago, and its sequel, will be read with keen interest by every citizen. Mrs. R. H. Thompson, who lives at 12, Hill Street, Penygraig, Rhondda—near the Girls' Day School—says: — I was troubled, off and on, for some considerable time, by constipation. I was almost afraid to take a good meal, because of the heavy, dull feeling afterwards; headaches and giddiness followed as a result. I tried different remedies for my com- plaint, but far and away the very best medicine proved to be Doan's dinner pills, and I had considerable benefit from taking them. At any sign of the trouble, a few of the pills always put me right again. They are a splendid medicine, and I do not hesitate to recommend them. (Signed) Rose H. Thompson." Mrs. Thompson now says—after a lapse of over two years:—" I now enjoy very good health, and still have confidence in Doan's Dinner Pills as being the best medicine for constipation or indigestion. I shall certainly recommend them to any who are troubled as I was." In indigestion, constipation, liver com- plaint. biliousness, nausea, distress after eating, lfatulence, heartburn, sick head- ache, baD breath, furred tongue, and general lassitude, Doan's Dinner Pills are of the greatest service. 'J Dey are purely vegetable, and their action, although so dependable, is as mild as if the move- ment were a. natural one; gradually- increasing doses are never necessary. There is no harsh purging or griping. and the bowels are not left bound up afterwards. One pill is one dose. I Price 1/H per bottle, sixi bottles 6/ of all dealers, or from Foster-McClellan Co., 8.

Arthur Ernest Stiff owed his arrest to a Worcester pawn- broker, who gave him in charge when he attempted to pledge some good^ taken from his father's shop. The youth was accompanied in the dock by a friend, Anthony Macara, who had walked from Tonypandy with him, but his companion was now discharged. Stiff was sentenced to two months.

Breach of Bye laws. Penygraig Contractor Fined. At Ystrad Police Court on Monday, before Mr. T. P. Jenkins (presiding) and Alderman E. H. Davies, William James, builder and contractor, Penygraig, was summoned at the instance of the Rhondda District Council for committing a breach of their bye-laws by carrying out cer- tain alterations to houses at James Street. Penygraig, by which the houses, recently erected and passed as single tene- ments, were divided into two tenements, each let to different tenants. Mr. G. Kirkhouse Jenkins (Messrs. Morgan, Bruce, and Nicholas, Pontypridd) ap- peared on behalf of the Council, and Mr. D. W. James, Tonypandy, defended. Evidence in support of the prosecution was gven by Mr. D. W. Jones, sanitary inspector, Mr. W. C. Jones, building in- spector, and Mr. Reid, deputy surveyor. A fine of 30s. was imposed, and an order made for the restoration of the houses to their former condition.

Ton-Pent re Appeal Class. In the Court of Appeal on Saturday, before the Master of the Rolls, Lord Jus- tices Farwell and Kennedy, the hearing of the case of Dade v. Richards and others was concluded. This was originally an action by Mr. H. Dade, a London soli- citor, in the Chancery Divisiof, before Mr. Justice Neville, against Mr. W. A. Richards, of Ton-Pentre, the Aspley Motor and Engineering Co., Ltd., and Mr. A. J. Paine and Mr. Thomas H. Shaw. directors of the company, which is now in liquidation, for an order register- ing himself as the owner of certain deben- ture shares standing in the name of the defendant Richards. These had been transferred by the plaintiff for monies due to him by Shaw. Plaintiff further asked that Mr. Paine and Mr. khaw should be made liable for the amount of the debentures and interest by reison of a guarantee endorsed on the debenture bonds. Mr. Justice Neville fevmd in favour of the plaintiff, and Mr. A. J. Paine, one of the defendants, now ap- pealed. After hearing Mr. Givsen for the appellant, the Court, without calling upon Mr. Butcher, K.C., to reply, dis- missed the appeal with costs.

Tylorstown Lad Killed. An inquest was held on Monday after- noon at the Tylor's Hotel, Tylorstown, by Mr. R. J. Rhys, coroner, on' Leslie Philips (14), of 13, Eric Street, Tylors- town. who was killed last Thursday even- ing through jumping on a journey of rubbish between Nos. 7 ano 8 Pits, Tylors- town. The Coroner remarked that there were more accidents of this kind happen- ing at Tylorstown than any other place I in his district. A verdict of Accidental death was returned. i .j v..v

| Fatality at the Cambrian Colliery An inquest was held by Mr. R. J. Rhys (district coroner) on Wednesday last, at the Llwynypia Institute, on the body of Benjamin Wilson (26), of 34, Court Street, Tonypandy. who was killed whilst following his employment as a rider at the Cambrian Collieries, CIydach Vale. Thos. Condon, a roadman employed at the No. 2 Pit. said that between 9 and 10 o'clock on Monday morning he found the deceased lying between the rails, his head on one of them. From the evidence given by Daniel Phillips, a repairer; Thos. M'ithan a young signal lad; Wm. Griffiths, 'the overman and Rufus T. Lewis, manager, it appears that deceased was riding on an empty journey of trams inward. He was near the rear of about 30 trams, when the front part of the journey became derailed, and in some unknown manner he was run over. It was thought possible that deceased, seeing that the front of the journey was derailed, missed his foot- ing in jumping off. Another opinion ex- pressed was that the jerking of the derailed trams might have thrown him I off. and that he had got entangled in the trams and drawn under. The road was quite clear and there was room for him to get off. There was also ample headroom. Deceased, who leaves a widow and two children, died before he was brought to the surface. A verdict of Accidental death was returned.
