W. Reep, Island Cycle Works, Carmarthen. Thos. Wm. Reee identified prisoner who, lie aaid, called upon him on the evening of the 33rd October and asked for the loan of a bicycle for two or three hours. Biggs paid witness 3s. despoeit, but witness never saw the bicycle afterwards, until it was shown him at the Polioe Station. Biggs had pre- vioualy hired a bicycle from him for a week in order to go to work at a oolliery in Tumble. Inspector David Jonee deposed to receiving Biggs into custody from the Metropolitan police at Harrow-road Police Station, Lon- don. He made no reply to the charge. Blfgs pleaded guilty and added he did not intend keeping the bicycle. If he had money he would have sent it back to the owner. The Mayor—Why did you not write? s-It never crossed my mind to write, air. P*asoner's mother appeared and said the bicjile would have been sent back to Car- marthen if her son had money. She had no moriey to spare as the had to bring up fivfl children. Her on had served in the Army for four years and five monthi, and was on the Reserve until August. Biggs was bound over to be of good be- havtour for tix months and was ordered to pay the costs, amounting to JB4.

Richards (presiding), the Deputy Mayor (Mr. Wm. Evans) and Messrs. T. Bland Davies, E. Colby Evans, James Davies, and John Griffiths. The Mayor (Rev. Fuller Mills), being a guardian, did mot adjudicate in the following- cases. John James, an <ar-soldi«r, was charged with neglecting tg mainu:.n his three chil- dren, aged 9, 4, and 2, now at the Poor Law Institution. Mr. John Saer, clerk to the guardians, laid that defendant's wife and the three children were admitted into the Poor Law Institution on August 4th, and on the fdl- lowing day defendant was admitted. It appears, Mr. Saer added, that defendant had been turned out of a house in Carmarthen because, he believed, James did not pay the rent. On August 6th, defendant asked the house committee for permission to go out to look for a. house and work, and he was granted a fortnight. The wife and the three children remained in tho Institution up to September 26th, when the wife absconded, leaving her three children at the Institution, where they had been ever since. Last week it was found out that both, defendant and his wife were working at a brickworks in Kidwelly, the average earnings of the husband during the last eight weeks being £3 Is. 7d. per week, and those of his wife J61 8s. 8d. On September bth, Mr W. Rupert Evans, the relieving officer, saw defendant in Carmarthen, when he then promised to maintain the children, but he did not carry out his promise, neither had he boen to see the children since he left the Institutian. 11 P.C. 'John Williams spoke to having re- y defendant into custody from the Kidwelly police on Saturday night. When cautioned and charged at the police-station with having neglected to maintain his three children, now chargeable to the r,ion, defendant replied, "I am willing to pay." Mr. J. B. Jones, Master of tho Poor Law Institution, and Mr. W. R. Evans, Reliev- ing Officer, bore out Mr. Saer's statement. Defendant said if they would give him a ohance he was will:ng to pay up every week as he was now in constant work. The Chairman.-What have you done with all that money— £ 24 12s. lOd.—you earned? —I had debts to pay, sir. Defendant was aont to prison for a fort- night, the Chairman remarking, "The Bench are satisfied that your conduct towards your children is not only disgraceful, bu.t eallous and cruel, and :t is a disgraceful im- position on the community."

Ammanford. PANTYFFYNNON YOUTH SENTENCED TO MONTH'S IMPRISONMENT. Monday, D.ec. l.=-ora MT. Hy. Hor- bert (in the chair), and Mr. David Davies. John Cecil Jonce Glaneennfen, Derwydd Road, was sun-moned by P.S. Morgan for allowing two dogs to be unmuzzled. The Deputy Chief Constable said the order was not applicable to the parish where the man resided. Defendant was let off on payment of coats -ba. 6d.—in each oase. Cycling without rear red lights, David James, Cwmgarnant, was fined 7s. 6d., and W. J. Howelis, Cefngwily, Llanedy, 6s. For allowing dogs to be unmuzzled, Dd. Itees Jones and Phillip Owen, both of Park View, Horney-road, Glanamman, were each fined 6s. Mr. H. M. Thomas, income tax collector, summoned a number of workmen for non- payment of income tax. In a number of cases from the Raven Colliery, Garn,ant, an adjournment had been granted. Mr. T. J. Randall (who then represented the men) now said that ho had received information that the money had been paid. So far as he was concerned, he had nothing further to say. Mr. Thomas then proved the amounts due, and orders were made. Orders were also made in a few other cases. Mr. T. J. Randall, on behalf of Thomas Williams, Brynchwyth, Mountain-road, Brynamman, applied for an ejectment order against Brinley Rees, Noddfa, Llandilo- road. Applicant, it wai stated, purchased 'the bouse in January last, after first ascertain- ing that the lespondent was about to re- I move. He had got married, and, in consequence of his failure to secure possession, they had to live apart, and the furniture whfth they had bought was still in the shops, and the shopkeepers were pressing him to accept delivery. Ap- plicant had otforqd to be satisfied in having two rooms only. Respondent stated that the house which he had secured at Garnant had not yet become vacant, the tenant being unable to get into his house at Swansea. He had now received promise of a hcuso in Barry- road, Lowe? Brynamman, but it was not finally settled. As to the suggestion to give the applicant two rooms, he could not see that he had sufficient accommodation to do that. He had a wife and three children, and there were only three bedrooms and a -'box" room upstairs. He was willing to take in seine of the applicant's furn:ture, and look affer the things. The Chairman told the respondent that the best way out of the difficulty would be for him to agreo to giva applicant the uso of two rooms; otherwise they would have to make an order. They adjourned the case for a month. Jasper Davies, 19 years old, of Panty- (ffynnon, was charged with the theft, by finding, of a pocket wallet containing £ 20 IDe. in Treasury notes, two letters addrossed to "Mr. Ike Jones, New Inn Hotel, Am- manford (the owner of the wallet) and some photographs, of the total value of £ 20 15s. The alleged theft took place in the Am- manford football ground on the occasion of the Ammnrnord T. Pontardulais match on November 22nd. Ike Jones, who is a well- known player, took part in the game, and geve his coat, containing the wallet, to Ernie Jones, a young cousin, to carry. Early in the second half Jones sustained an injury which necessitated hie retirement, and in the dressing room in the Y.M.C.A. he found the wallet missing. When arrested by P.S. Britten at mid- night on Sunday, accused said he had burned the photos, letters and wallet. He spent some of the money soon after finding it, and did not like to return it afterwards. He had now only 7s. 6d. left. Out of the total sum he paid £ 4 for rent, and bought wearing apparel for himself and sister, and three pairs of boots for the other children. spent the remainder on visits to Lian- ellv. Pontardulais, and Ammanford. Howell Williams, a boy of 13, saw the aecuscd pick up the wallet, and the latter told him he was going with it to the police. There were two policement on the field, and witness pointed these out to him, but be went the other way. Accused pleaded guilty, and was said by the poliee to be lazy and wicked. Sinoe his father's death nine years ago, he bad been allowed to do as be pleased. He had received three strokes with the rod i that court for lareency. The Chairman told him he had done a Tery mean thing, and :f he was committed to the Assises he would undoubtedly get the maximum penalty. They had taken into consideration his youth and the fa-et that he had served as a soldier and thought they were treating him leniently in senten- cing him to one month's imprisonment.

Carmarthen Harlequins journeyed to Ney- land on Saturday with a weak team, and this fact, to a large extent, might eccplain their going under to Neyland by thirteen points to nil. At full back, D. J. Peter was sub- stituted by Myrddin Thomas. On the left wing, Cliff Jones was replaced by Del Evans from the forwards, and Reggie Williams was absent from the front line, the two vacancies among the forwards being filled by Jim Thomas and Clem Metcalfe, of the Quins II Served by a very heavy pack, Neyland were the superior team and showed combina- tion, specially in the first half, and at the ir-terval they led by one dropped goal and two tries to nil In the second half the 'Quins improved and tried to open out the game, but the homesters indulged in nullifying tactics. The 'Quins lacked finish to their movements which always seemed to break down at the iast moment, through tumbling. Towards the end Neyland rallied and -got over with another try. Final score—Neyland 3 tries, 1 dropped goal; Carmarthen 'Quins, nil. Gwynne Lewis, Carmarthen, played as inside half for Cardiff University College against Pontypool on Thursday in last week. Newspaper reports describe him as a candi- date for the International honours this season. It ts to be noted, however, that he was not selected for the Welsh trial game. He was chosen as half in the combined Col- lege team to play against Cardiff and Swan- sea, etc. *t* CARMARTHEN TRAINING COLLEGE, v. NEW DOCK STARS (LLANELLY). (By Freelance.") New Dock Stars, Llanelly, who have a high reputation as a really good team, were easily superior in the match with the Training College at Norton's Field, Car- marthen. on Saturday, but the collegians put up a sturdy fight, especially in the second half, during which the Stars failed to penetrate the defence. The visitors showed more expereince and efficiency, and the collegians made the fatal mistake of tackling high with the result that many a player, who ought to have been brought down got away. Th college team were:— Full-baok, E. D. Rees; three-quarters, T. James, R. H. Andrews, A. G. Rees and T. G. Morgan; half-backs, E. Hughes and Francis; forwards, W. J. Rees, Goodwin, T. S. Davies, J. R. Thomas, I. Williams, E. T. Edwards, Ebsworth, and Thomas. Referee—T. H. Jenkins, W.F.U. Owing to the late arrival of the visitors, the whole of the play lasted only 45 minutes as dusk set in. and the latter part of the game was played almost in semi-darkness. The Stars were minus five of their Tegular players, who were on the injured list. The Stars were early aggressive, and some bril- liant handling culminated in J. Owen Davios crossing in the corner. The same player again orossed, and the spectators were delighted with the sparkling open play of the visitors, who easily excelled as a combination. Further tries were scored by Percy Roberts and J. O. Davies. In the soend half, the collegians im- proved, and are to be complinlented for the manner they kept the Stars at bay. They also made occasional fine attempts to score by means of forward rushes. In this half

Llanarthney Golden Wedding. On Saturday, November 29th, Mr. and Mrs. James Maddoeks, Bailey Glas, Llan- arthney, celebrated their golden wedding. Married in Llanarthney Church, November 29th, 1869, by the late Canon Harris, they have always been staunch Church-people and Conservatives. Mr. Maddoeks has been viear s warden for over 20 years, but of lato that office has been held by his son.

Football Wotes.-
Football Wotes. (By "Rcver."} On Wcdmeiiday in I"t weak a "Socoor" match was played at Lampeter between Yssradmcurig College and Lampeter Old Tetrad Meurig Beys. After a good game St. Jehx s won by two goals to one. Trains and motors conveyed the Lam- peter College team and supporters to Aber- ystwyth on Saturday. It was the oooasion of the retilrn match between Lampeter and Aberystwyth Colleges. Earlier in the seawan Lampeter beat Aberystwyth by two tnea to nil. Each team was at full strength, each man was in the pink of condition, and each oollegc regarded Saturday's matoh 110 the football event of the season. Ribbons of gold nad blaok and green and rao denoted the partisans. The excitement was intense. Every device that the exuber- ance of youth could devise was introduced to give enoouragement to the players. Tin- whistles, toy-triynpetg, and otheJt nioiso- producing instruments, were used. There was not a silent moment throughout the gamel, and the referee's whistle sounded feebly amid the joyqus din caused by the merry spectators. At the close, the respec- tive college "yells" were given. It was a festal day for cach oollege, a day when all that was noblest and best in football was seen. Aberystwyth won a keen contest by a drop goal and five tries to a try. Each time they pressed, they soored. Lampeter played well, but, somehow or other, failed to give their play that sparkle which usually in theirs. Individually they were good, but collectively their movements were too slow to be fruitful. In the closing stages they seemed to have grasped the idea of oohosion, and played steadily. But, too late! Aberystwyth reached the heights of foot- ball greatness. Fore and aft they showed their superiority. Wig. Lewis, an old Llan- dovery boy, was the niainstay of the Aber- ystwyth team. He had a hand in the soor- ing of all their tries. 'It was a very fast match. IampAor, although the l- good sportsmen as they are,—freely acknow- ledged, o. the day's form, Aberystwyth deserved the points which they obtained. It is probable that the clubs will most tagairi to decide which ia the better team, each side having a win to its credit. A sub-committee of the Welsh Rugby L'nion at the Queen's Hotel, Cardiff, on Thursday afternoon in last week mefr re- prosentatives of Aberystwyth, Lampeter, Carmarthen, and Cardiff Colleges to con- the question of arranging a few matches against a, combined college team. It was decided to ask Cardiff to arrange a match on their ground on December 17 and Swansea on December 18. The following inter-college team was selected to fulfil these engagements:— Hugh Jones Cardiff); R. J. Griffiths (Aber- ystwyth) C. J. Thomas (Cardiff), captain, R. A. Andrews (Carmarthsn), and G. Rees (Aberystwyth); Gwyn Lewis (Cardiff) and W. E. Allin (Cardiff); W. Lewis (Aber- ystwyth), D. Salter (Aberystwyth), W. J. Jones (Carmarthen), G. G. Protheroe (Lampeter), C. G. Lewis (Lampeter), Bert Lloyd (Lampeter), A. E. Beith (Cardiff), and W. Idris Jenes (Aberystwyth). I am sorty that the Llandovery-Brecon match, which had been arranged for Satur- day, had to be postponed. On form, the Llandenrery team should win. In Austm Evans, their captain, they have a born leader and an inspiring player. Ymlaep, Llanymddyfri. T have pleasure in congratulating my old football friend, Major T. C. Thomas, O.B.E., M.C., upon his well-merited war honours. As a player and as captain, he made the Llandilo team famous. I am de- lighted to know that he is still enthusiastic in furthering the interests of the pastime in which he was so promi- nent a figure in those far-away, yet ever- present, days when Llandilo's fifteen trounced all comers by their brilliant ex- position of the "game of games." >

On Saturday, November 22nd, oa their own ground, Llanybyther Soeeer Team opened their season with a match witk Llan- dvsial Town. During the first half play was very fast and exciting, and although both goalkeepers were severely tried, the whistle sounded for half-time without a score. The :am. was restarted with vigour, and after tone smart passing in midfield, A. T. Davies scored for Llandyssul with a fine shot that gave the home custodian absolutely no ehanee. From the oentre-off kiek the homesters made strenuous efforts to equalise, fer admittedly up to now, the matoh had been evenly oon- troted. After aii exeitiag seramble near tke visitors' goal the situation was saved by a eorner that did not mature to the home- sters' satisfaction. With about fifteen minutes to go, rally waa made by the visi- tors, and after some smart work on their right wing, with the swinffing of the ball to centre, goal No. 2 was registered by D. S. Davies.

The match between Carmarthen Thurs- days and Casbryn Stars (Ammanford) at Carmarthen Park on Thursday in last week prrved an interesting speotaele. It was deficit ef any soientifie display and devoid of any collective movement tantamount to brilliancy, both sides displaying a somewhat elementary knowledge of the code. Cae- bryn Stars were lucky to win by a oonvert-ed goal to nil. The score was the result of a good individual effort by Willie Parsons, who ran along the touoh line, and punting over the full-baok's head, re-gathered and scored under the posts. Evan Davies con- verted. On the run of play the Stars did net deserve to win. Final score-Caebryn Stars, 1 converted goal; Carmarthen Thursdays, nil. ASSOCIATION. -'I\.RMARTHEN TOWN v. LLANYBYTHER. The Carmarthen Town Association Team played Llanybyther at Llanybyther on Saturday before a good number of speota- tdrs. Hurley kiokled off for the visitors, and a fast and interestinujj first half ended with the Carmarthen team leading by one goal to nil. This point was obtained by A. Rogers (oaptain), following pretty foot- work on the part of all the forwards. During the second half the visitors gradu- ally obtained the upper hand, and Hum- phreys scored from a corner placed by Smiith. Nothing daunted4 Llanybyther made bold attempts to reduce the lead. A few minutes from time a penalty kick was awarded the visitors, the taking of which was entrusted to G. W. Wilmot. He sent in a fine shot, which was partly saved by the Llanybyther goalie, but Wilmot rush- ing up netted, making the soore 3 to nil in favour of the visitors. The general run of play on both, sides was an eye-opener to those present, and spoke well of the Soccer code in this district. The Carmarthen team was enterained to tea by the Llanybyther Club. Those who played for Carmarthen were :-J. Lucas, R. V. Palmer, T. G. Wil- mot (vice-capt.), H. Smith, J. Harding, R. Chapman, H. Brown, A. Rogers (capt.), J. Hurley, J. Jenkins, and Humphreys. MT. Bramley referred. TRAINING COLLEGE V. PEMBROKE DOCK. The fixture between Pembroke Dock Town and Carmarthen College at Pem- broke on Saturday aroused much interest. It was a well contested game. In the fi'rst half Nicholas scored for the visitors. The home team played havoc after the interval, and two goala were soored by Tucker, the spectators being treated to some really thril- ling play in front of the college goal. Final Score:— PEMBROKE DOCK, 2 GOALS. CARMARTHEN COLLEGE, 1 GOAL. AMMANFORD SOCCER v. LLANELLY II. The offioial referee failed to turn up in a league game between the above teams in the Ammanford Reoreation Grounds on Satur- day. In a consultation on the playing field it was decided to carry on the game, and to decide which side would have the privi- lege of selecting a referee by the spin of the coin. This favoured Llanelly, but the game had not been in progress more than ten minutes when a dramatic incident arose. The Scarlets, who were pressing, had a penalty kick awarded them for alleged foul play by the home centre half, practically in the goal mouth. Players and spectators pro- tested vigorously against this, and play was suspended for four or five minutes. Several of the home players made as if to walk off the field. In the end, the referee called the linesmen into consultation, and withdrew his decision. The game proceeded, and the Scarlets se- cured a lead through a smart goal by Sivern, their inside right. Immediately afterwards, Parrott, the home centre forward, raced up the field, and sent in a long shot, which found the Llanelly net. Ammanford seemed to play better in the second half, but Sivern again pierfied their defence, and the game ended in a win for the Scarlets by the odd goal in three. It is alleged that the referee brought the game to a close fully ten minutes before the agreed time, and Ammanford will ask for a re-play.
