PRESTATYN DEBT CASE.
PRESTATYN DEBT CASE. .£.40 Owing for Food and Lodging. At tlie County Court in Rhyl on Friday, the case was mentioned of Mr Thomas Jones, Prestatyn, who had obtained a judgment summons against H. H. Foster for C40 7/5 due for food and lodging. Mr Gamlin explained that defendant, who was supposed to be a gentleman of independent means, had been served with a subpoena to attend that court, and he had also been given 10/- conduct money to come from Llangollen. Defendant had now telephoned asking that the case be adjourned. His Honour Judge Moss intimated some time ago that he would not permit subpoenas issued from that court to be disregarded, and he put his warning into effect in this case. The defendant was fined t5 for disobeying the order of that Court, and the Judge issued a committal order, to be suspended if the defendant paid £5 a month.

To Music-Lovers. On Thursday next the Welsh Congrega- tionalists have arranged to hold a concert at the Town Hall, at which the artistes announced to appear include Madame E. Burton Griffiths and Miss Edith A. Randies, both from Chester; Llew Colwyn," and also Mr T. Amos Jones, R A.M; instrumental selections are to be given by the Misses Yeoman and Miss Elsie Wright. With this talent doubtless an enjoy- able programme will be the result, and as the prices are popular (1/6, 1/ 6d.) there should be a large attendance. Mr Thomas Jones, J.P., is to preside.

Honours for Local Pupils.
Honours for Local Pupils. As a result of the Honours Examination conducted by the Central Welsh Board, John D. Jones (son of Mr and Mrs Daniel Jones, Prengwyn Villa) has won a scholarship of JE30 per annum for three years. Harold Thomas (son of Mr and Mrs Charles Thomas) has gained an exhibition scholarship of £ 10 per annum for three years, awarded by the Governors of the University College of Bangor. Both pupils received the foundation of their training at Dyserth Schools, but for some time have been pupils of the Rhyl County School. They will now proceed to Bangor. These successes are highly credit- able to both scholars, and serve as an instance to shew that with perseverance, by means of scholarships, a day school pupil may secure a university education.
Technical Instruction.
Technical Instruction. A public meeting in connection with the above was held in the Schools on Friday evening, and was largely attended. Mr J. Williams, J.P. (Hosslyn). presided, and pointed out that the object of the meeting was to arouse enthusiasm in the classes pro- posed to be continued this winter, and to receive names of intending pupils. Mr Joseph Thomas also addressed the meeting, dwelling upon the advantages of a scientific education to the working man in these stren- uous times, and stated that the object of these classes was to fill this need. Mr C. Thomas and Mr Hichard Lewis spoke in Welsh, and dealt with the splendid advantages these classes anbrded for the advancement of education. The names of intending pupils were then asked for, over twenty being received for cookery, and the minimum number for a continuation class. Ten candidates desired to have a buliding construction class. This matter is being placed before the Technical Instruction Committee, and there is hope the request will be granted.
The Motor Train.
The Motor Train. On Tuesday next the winter service of trains will come into operation, which means that there will be a considerable reduction in the number of journeys of the motor train. The revised time table is given on page 1.
Welsh Wesleyans. 1
Welsh Wesleyans. In connection with the above a Mutual Improvement Society has been formed in Dyserth, and a meeting is being held to-night (Friday) for the purpose of arranging a pro- gramme for the session. The Rev. Mostyn Jones has been nominated President of the Society. (
The New Vicar.
The New Vicar. On Sunday last the Rev. D. Griffiths, B.A. commenced his duties in the parish and officiated at the three services, at each of which there was a large congregation to welcome the rev gentleman. After reading the usual declaration Mr Griffiths gave a short address in which he exhorted his parishioners to aid him in his work.
The Wesleyans' Concert.I
The Wesleyans' Concert. In the report of the above concert last week the names of Miss Bessie Evans (Dyserth) and Miss Florence Williams (Meliden), should have been added to the list of artistes given. We regret the omission, which came about by inaccurate information being supplied.
Lucky Paupers.
Lucky Paupers. It is not in every Union that paupers have the luxuries which are provided at St. Asaph. Here, it is pointed out by a Yorkshire paper, the inmates have a pony and phaeton, a piano, and a library of over 600 volumes, all presented by generously-disposed persons in the district."

Sir Chas. McLaren and The Threatened Railway Strike. Sir Charles McLaren, M.P., writing in reply to the secretary of the Leicester branch of the A.S.R.S., says he will lose no opportunity of doing what he can to bring about an honour- able settlement between all parties. That can be achieved by a little tact on both sides. Organised labour was recognised in all trades, and nothing could be gained by precipitating strikes on the one hand or refusing to recog- nise a trades union on the other.
Relief Granted.
Relief Granted. At the Prestatyu Sessions on Wednesday, Mr C. Grimsley applied on behalf of the St. Asaph Guardians that Mrs Jane Morris, now residing at Sandy Lane, Prestatyn, be made chargeable to the Holywell Guardians on account of her previous settlement in Llanasa. It was pointed out that the old lady was in her 130th year and not in a fit state to be removed to Holywell. The St. Asaph Guardians were therefore given permission to grant her relief, the amount to be refunded by the Holywell Board.

Death of Mr. Owen Owens, Tan…
Death of Mr. Owen Owens, Tan Lan. The announcement of Mr Owen Owens' death will be received with general regret. He died on Wednesday evening at sixty years of age, having been ill for neairly twelve months. The district has lost in him a man of noble principles. He had great will-power, a fine sense of justice, and was always with- out partiality, adhering strictly to the cause of right. His birth place is Oclir-y-Voel, Dyserth, and he came to Ffynnongroew thirty-six years ago. The Wesleyan body will miss a great worker and popular layman, he having preached in the Llanasa circuit for thirty-one years, invariably drawing large congretatious, and often receiving invitations to other churches both at home and away. He was also a class leader and trustee at Bethania" for a similar period. As a public man, he was very well known and honoured, having been a member of the Parish Council of Llanasa until his decease, and an overseer for several years In addition to this he was a member of the Council school managers at Ffynnongroew, and always took an active part in matters relating to the welfare of the people. He leaves seven daughters and a son, who will have great sympathy from the district. The funeral takes place to day (Saturday) at Llanasa, under the new form of burial service, starting from the house about 3 p.m. It is hoped to publish Mr Owens portrait next week.

The Whale.
The Whale. The huge fish reported in the P.W." last week as having grounded at Mostyn turned out to be a large bottle-nose whale, measuring 20 feet long and about 11 feet in circum- ference, and weighing approximately three tons. It was first seen at midnight on Thursday floundering on the muddy bank by a workman of the Iron Works. Why it came to this unsuitable spot remains a mystery, unless it be that he was pursuing small fish. As it had grounded near the cop where the molten waste from the furness is thrown, it was found necessary to move the whale, which was no pleasant task. Ropes were fashened to it and the locomotive of the Iron Works drew it further inland. During Friday hun- dreds of peope came to see it, and were evidently alarmed at the sight of the living monster. It was a curious sight to see children climbing on it in large numbers, enjoying the excitement. On Friday evening it was shot with two bullets, and was buried on the shore on Saturday morning.

Cycling Without a Light.
Cycling Without a Light. At Prestatyn sessions on Wednesday, R. G. Williams, Point of Ayr Cottages, Gwespyr, was charged by P.O. J. W. Evans with riding a bicycle without a light at Gronant, on the night of September 17th. When giving his evidence the constable said this practice was becoming common with cyclists, and they refused to stop when called upon. The defendant said he had a lamp but failed to light it. He was accompanied by another cyclist who had a light. The bench took a lenient view of the case, and let defendant oft' on payment of costs (5ff)), but if any more cases came before them they would be dealt with more severely.
The Water Supply
The Water Supply of the district has been under the considera- tion of the Llanasa Parish Council for some time past, and it has now been decided to undertake the work of improving the supply at Gronant and Picton. It is stated that at the latter place matters had assumed a serious aspect, the supply hitherto relied upon having given out. The well at Ffynnongroew is also to receive the attention of the Council.

Neighbours Quarrel.
Neighbours Quarrel. A charge of assault and battery was pre- ferred against Wm Thomas, Owens Terrace, Pen-y-ftordd, by his neighbour Mrs Price at Prestatyn Sessions on Wednesday. The plaintiff, who gave her evidence in a very voluble manner said that defendant had attempted to choke her, and he picked up a st-me with which he threatened to strike her, all on account of a quarrel among their children. Helen Williams, who resided with the plaintiff, corroborated Mrs Price's evidence, and said that Thomas had threatened her similarly. William Thomas denied having touched Mrs Price, in fact he had not been within a yard of her. The woman was continua lly annoying him and his wife, and the plaintiff's conduct was more than any man could bear. This statement was borne out by defendant's wife, and similar evidence was given by Mrs Sarah Jones and Thomas Jones. The magistrates dismissed the case, each side paying their own costs. 11
