THE RECTOR OF PENARTH AND SUNDAY GOLF. IMPRESSIVE SERMON ON SABBATH OBSERVANCE. In accordance with announcement, the Rev W. B. Sweet-Escott, B.A., rector of Penarth, preachd an impressive sermon at the Parish Church of St. Augustine on Sunday evening last on the subject of Sabbath Day Observance," the rev. gentleman basing his discourse upon the 19th verse of the 20th chapter of St. John's Gospel-H Then the same day at even, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut, where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in their midst, and said unto them 'Peace be unto you. The sermon, which was of an eloquent character, was listened to with devout attention by a crowded congregation. In the course of his discourse the Rector said he did not wish for one moment to enter into an argumen- tative phase of the subject, nor to speak harshly of anyone as to their observance of this holy day. His reason for choosing this as the subject of a special sermon was to enable his congregation to arrive at a clear understanding as to how the day of the Lord was to be observed, as well as to point out the purposes for which it was appointed, so that by passing through life's journey they might observe these resting- places and have communion with the Father, and obtain refreshment from the sanctuary of God to sustain them through the coming week. He had selected the verse read because it brought to their minds the Saviour's idea of the way in which the day should be kept. He said peace." This was a very beautiful idea—God's children meeting together on the Lord's day, and God Himself present in their midst speaking peace unto them. The subject was not an easy one, but he would endeavour to show the difficulty of the subject and the points of view from which it might be regarded. Speaking of the institution of the sabbath, the Rector pointed out there was Et sabbath long before any mention of the Jews was ever made, so that they must detach the origin of the word altogether from the Jewish sabbath. The seventh day was the day on which God rested from His work and sanctified it, because on that day he completed the creation of the world. The sabbath, therefore, was a remnant of paradise before the Son ever entered into the world. It was true they did not read much in the Bible about the observance of the seventh day before the Jewish period, but it would be sufficient for him to remind his hearers of the manner in which the Jews observed their Sabbath, and bow their heavenly Father placed restrictions upon the Jews as to the way in which the holy day was to be kept. Having quoted Bishop Butler, showing why the special observance of one day in seven became a duty upon all Christians, the rev. gentleman went on to explain that the Jews were bound to give one day in seven to God because God had commanded them to do so, and it, therefore, became a duty from the fact that the command came from Him Whose creatures the Jews were. The blessed Saviour rose from the dead on the Grst day of the week, and this was an earnest of the commencement of the work of regeneration. The Lord's Day was not brought to an end by special command, but the evidence of the history of the Christian Church was in favour of its due observance. Was there, he would ask, any special reason for observing the Lord's Day, hnd keeping it holy ? He main- tained there was. They were bound to worship God, and, if so, they were bound to set apart a portion of time for that purpose. Referring to the condition of thought as to the observance of the Sabbath in the present day, the Rector expressed regret that people seemed to be beginning to come to that condition of thought that they failed to recognise they were under any obligation to worship God at all. He would urge that there was an obligation and a special duty to worship God, and he trusted the people would recognise this duty as absolutely necessary considering how life was being lived at present. After working all the week to obtain the necessaries of life, it was only reasonable to give one day to God, not as a holiday and day of rest, but to enable Christians to draw nigh to God, and God would draw nigh to them, and speak to them words of peace and comfort to strengthen them, and help them in the great business of life. There might be )-ome who fell back upon the words of St. Paul—"One man esteemeth one day above another another man esteemeth every day alike." He took St. Paul's meaning to be this. Those only are free on the Lord's Day to do what they like whose wills are in per- fect harmony with the will of God. To others the I observance is a discipline by which they are brought to a higher stage of religious perfection. A holy Christian man or woman may readily be allowed to do what be or she likes on the Lord's Day. Every day was alike to those who could always live in the sunshine of God's presence, but to those who could not rise to this high standard of holiness the observance of the Sabbath was the discipline by which they should be brought on to this stage of religious perfection. The Sabbath was one of the greatest liberties that could pos°ibly be enjoyed, for, as the Psalmist of old had written-" One day in Thy courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of ungodliness." It was, furthermore, a duty and an obligation to observe the Sabbath in order to avoid causing means of offence to the weaker brethren, for "Happy is the man who offendeth not in the thing which he allows." The joint worship of God by Christian souls on'the Lord's day was absolutely essential, and was the highest possible act of Christian devotion and fellowship. In conclusion the Rector made an earnest appeal to his bearers to a rightful and dutiful observance of the Sabbath. He said Brethren, think over these things. If our religion is true and based upon God's holy word if we hope to live the whole of eternity in the presence of God, then let us live in this life as we hope to die. Let us prepare our souls for that great destiny in the future, for unless we can spend one day in seven in the courts of God's house during mortal life, unless we learn the value of the Lord's Day and spend it in adoration and praise here, we cannot hope to live for ever and ever in the presence of God. Let us try to realise the meaning of those beautiful words of King David, when he said I was glad when they said unto me, we will go into the house of God.' When we come to realise these things, then, brethren, when our life's day is over, we shall be prepared to enter with joy upon the great eternal Sabbath."

BANK HOLIDAY REVELRIES AT PENARTH. James Webber, an old offender, and David Bowen, appeared at Penarth Police Court on Mon- day last charged with being drunk and disorderly on Bank Holiday.

LLANDOUGH AND COGAN SCHOOL BOARD. POLLING FOR THE TRIENNIAL ELECTION. The polling for the triennial election of the Llandough and Cogan U.D. School Board took place on Friday last at Cogan Board School, Mr A. J. Harris, clerk to the Cardiff Board of Guardians, being the returning-officer. There were five seats to be filled, and seven candidates went to the poll. The result was declared in the evening as follows:- ELECTED. Rev F. E. Williams, M.A., South Bank, Windsor-road, curate of Cogan 445 Mr W. L. Morris, Compton House, Stan- well-road, Penarth, builder 359 Mr E. B. Riley, 49, Pill-street, Cogan, builder 248 Mr J. F. Proud, 126, Plassey-street, Penarth, plumber 228 Mr J. Pavey, 22, Pill-street, Cogan, machinist (old member) 220 NON-KLECTED. Mr R. Price, 21, Pill-street, Cogan, boiler- maker. 164 Mr C. Jolliife, 84, Windsur-road, Penarth, stationmaster. 118 The polling during the afternoon was quietly, but steadily, conducted, the only tendency towards a rush being between six and eight o'clock, when the working-men came up to poll, but towards dusk a good deal of healthy public excitement was evinced as to the prospective result. There were comparatively few spoilt votes. One of these was a plumper recorded in favour of the Rev Frank Williams, but inasmuch as the paper bore the signature of the voter it was declared void. Upon the result of the poll being. declared by the returning officer hearty cheers were given for the successful candidates, the demonstration being continued as each gentleman in order of election addressed the crowd outside the schools. Thanking the ratepayers for their support, Mr Williams declared it was his intention not to serve a clique, but the entire interests of Cogan. (Cheers.) Mr Pavey remarked that he had been elected for the third time in spite of enormous opposition and uncalled for accusations. Nothing, he added, would deter him from con- tinuing to do his duty. (Cheers.)-It may be added that Mr F. W. Ensor, solicitor, Windsor- road, Cogan, had also been nominated, but with- drew before going to the poll.

PROPOSAL TO STOP THE SUN- DAY 'BUSSES TO PENARTH. Last week at a meeting of the Cardiff Corporation Cabs Committee (Alderman Yorath presiding), Mr E. Beavan asked whether they as a committee had power to prohibit the running of public con- veyances to Penerth and elsewhere on Sundays.- In reply, Mr F. C. Lloyd (the deputy town-clerk) stated that they had no power under the present bye-laws. Under the section for regulating the starting and stopping of conveyances, probably a bye-law could be framed, but he considered it extremely doubtful that the Local Gevernment Board would agree to a bye-law prohibiting the running of conveyances on Sundays. The com- mittee had authorised 'busses to run for a year. After the expiration of that licence a fresh bye-law might be framed for the regulation of the time on Sundays. They had no power to prohibit, only to regulate the time for the starting and stopping of the conveyances.—Mr Beynon Harris said he was of opinion that they had power to Etop the running of 'busses on Sundays. They had absolute power over the six days already, and the same power that made it for the six days could make it for the seventh.—Mr E. Beavan contended that they had power to prohibit the running on Sundays.-The matter then dropped.

SORRY TO GIVE SUCH TROUBLE TO THE PENARTH MAGISTRATES. -7 AN OLD FEMALE OFFENDER AND HER PET PONY. Mary Jackson, of Penarth, is an old lady who f is the happy possessor of a pet pony. The animal f is fond of straying about the streets, and in- ] dulging at every opportunity in skulking into I people's gardens when the populace is asleep. On ] Monday last Mrs Jackson made another appear- ( ance before the local magistrates as sponsor for the erratic pony. Addressing the Bench, which was occupied by Colonel Guthrie and Mr W. B. Gibbs, Mrs Jackson said she was very sorry to give their worships so much trouble. The pony had been brought up on the streets, and was quite familiar with the town. (Laughter.)— Colonel Guthrie We have a very bad list heie against you, Mrs Jackson.—Defendant: True, gentlemen, that is so, but I have a lad to look after the pony now. (Laughter.) — Colonel Guthrie: We must protect the public; you must 1 pay a penalty of 15s including costs.

A DANGEROUS OFFENCE AT PENARTH. The Penarth magistrates (Colonel Guthrie and Mr W. B. Gibbs) on Monday last fined Charles Shepherd 5s for being drunk while in charge of a horse and cart on the public streets. P.C. 386 prosecuted, the Bench remarking the offence was a very dangerous one.—John Kingstone, Penarth, was fined 20s or 14 days' hard labour, for the same offence.

BARRY AND CADOXTON PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE. A meeting of the Public Works Committee of the Barry and Cadoxton Local Board was held on Tuesday evening last at Cadoxton, present-Mr W. Thomas (chairman), Alderman J. C. Meggitt, DrP. J. O'Donnell, Mr F. P. Jones-Lloyd, Mr J. Arthur Hughes (clerk), and Mr J. C. Pardoe (surveyor). DRAINAGE OF HOUSES AT BARRY. A discussion took place as to a complaint made by Mr E. R. Moxey with reference to a water- course nuisance on the hill at Barry, and it was pointed out that Captain Murrell's and other houses were not drained. The cost of the construction of a drain in this instance, the surveyor pointed out, would be about £ 300, but Mr Meggitt stated that no drainage could be formed until the land had been utilised, and the roads defined.-It was resolved that the inspector be directed to report upon the drainage and water supply of the houses in question. A KNOTTY POINT FROM HOLTON-ROAD. The Surveyor read a communication from Mr Herbert Lewis offering an easement of land for the widening of a portion of Holton-road, opposite the entrance to Crossways-street, on condition that certain concessions were granted to the holders of the land, whereon six shops were intended to be built.—The discussion which followed was directed as to whether it was expedient or legal to permit one of the houses to be built over the main sewer. Dr O'Donnell strongly opposed permission being granted, and said the offer seemed to him to be a bribe to the Board. Beside, it was dangerous to allow the application on sanitary grounds.—Mr Jones-Lloyd: I don't think it is a bribe it is a case of quid pro quo.-Eventually it was decided to refer the ques- tion to the clerk to report upon the Board's legal position thereon. THE NEW ROAD OVER DINAS POWIS COMMON. Mr Dashwood-Caple, architect, wrote on behalf of Major-General Lee asking permission for the use of the steam-roller for the new road leading over Dinas Powis Common.-Dr O'DonnelI Shall we have it back ? (Laughter.)-The Chairman 0, yea.-It was resolved to grant the use of the roller on the usual terms. ANIMALS STRAYING IN THE DISTRICT. Dr O'Donnell suggested that the attention of the police be drawn to the large number of horses allowed to stray on the highway in Cadoxton. The nuisance was a source of public danger, and on Sunday {especially he had seen no less than twenty horses crossing and recrossing Court-road, and it was not safe for women and children to pass. QUARRYING UNDER THE MAIN SEWER, Mr D. Lore was reported to be quarrying close to the main sewer in the Cwms Quarry, Cadoxton, and it was his intention to excavate under the sewer.-The Chairman That is Dr Mil ward again. -The matter was referred to the clerk to legally report on the matter. FENCING OF DANGEROUS PLACES. It was resolved to properly protect all unfenced quarries or exposed public footpaths in the district, the latter leading from Coldknap and Porthkerry. THE CLERK OF WORKS. The public works in the district having been completed, it was decided to dispense with the services of the clerk of works. NEW PLANS. The following new building plans were pre- sented, against some of which objections were raised :—Two shops at the corner of Jewel-street, for Mr John Jones; shops and bakehouse at corner of George-street, for Mr J. Westall; house in Dock View-road for Mrs Ridler (the drainage to run at rear instead of underneath the premises); stable in Holton-road for Air John Jones conver- sion of stable in bakehouse, Holton-road, for Mr John Jones and addition to two shops in Holton- road, for Mr J. Price. PUBLIC FOOTPATHS. The Clerk reported that Mr R. Forrest, on be- half of Lord Romilly, had consented to turnstiles being placed across the public footpaths from The Parade to Coldknap, from Coldknap to Porthkerry, and Porthkerry to Knock-'em-down Cottage.—It was resolved to erect the turnstiles as reported.— By means of these paths, some of which have for years been regarded as private property, Mr Meggitt said the public will be able to go from Barry to Coldnap along the beach, thence over the cliff through Porthkerry Park Woods, and out by Knock-'m-down Cottage.-It was agreed that properly defined path be laid down, and that it be protected where it abuts on the cliff.-The Chairman directed attention to a public path which, he alleged, was being closed by Mr Cory, Porthkerry but the Clerk advised that this was situated outside the jurisdiction of the Board, and the matter dropped. BARRY HARBOUR SEWERAGE WORKS. Mr C. R. Walker, C.E., reported that good pro- gress was being made with the above works, and suggested the sum of :£1,100 being provisionally passed.—It was resolved to pay the engineer the sum of :£150 on account of commission on the contract.

PENARTH PILOT KEEPS HIS WIFE VERY POOR. Before Colonel Guthrie and Mr W. B. Gibbs, at Penarth Police Court on Monday last, John Wilson, pilot, was summoned for not sending his son regularly to school. Mrs Wilson appeared, and said, although her husband was earning good noney, he kept her very poor." I am the nother of ten children living, but only little Bert and Gwenda are in school.The Bench fined lefendant 59.

DEATH OF AN AMERICAN LADY AT BARRY. About a month ago Mrs Jane Merry day, of Florida, U.S.A., arrived at Barry on a visit to her daughter, Mrs Barstow, wife of Mr S. J. Barstow, architect, living at 35, Sigh-street, Barry, the visit across the Atlantic being intended for the benefit of her health. The lady, however, gradually grew worse, and expired oa Monday evening last, at the aged of 70 years. The funeral took place yester- day (Thursday) afternoon, at Merthyr Do van Cemetery,
