UNVEILING A MEMORIAL WINDOW. This morning, at the Bangor Catlhedral, the Bishop unveiled a memorial window to the late Dr Campbell, some time. bishop of Bangor. Bishop Williams referred to the many ad- mirable qualities of Bishop Campbell, whom be had known from boyhood. He was a man of great humility, and kept himself in the back ground; in fact, he carried his self-effacement almost to a fault. But when it was necessary for him to speak out he was quite ready to do ao, and. rose to "the occasion, and said the right word in the right place. As long as the Church bad men of his stamp to guide and rule its affairs they need not fear any storm that might assail them. ————————™* •

NORTH WALES STEAMERS. ALLEGED RECKLESS RACING.

CARNARVON ELECLRIC LIGHTING. WORKS NO PRIVATE~XCT REQUIRED. I MR LLOYiD-GiEORGE' S INTERVENTION. A few weeks ago it seemed likelv that the Corporation of Carnarvon would have to incur a large amount of ejopenditure in connectiom with the agreement between them and the Na- tional Electric Construction Company in re- ference to the electricity concern. The Corporation had occasion to apply to the Local Government Board for additional bor- rowing powers, which were not granted, be- cause it was thought that the agreement with the Construction Company was, in pursuance of what has been called the Sudbury judgment, legally defective. At the time the only apparent remedy was the promotion of a private bill, whidh at the* 'lowest computation would have saddled the rates with a sum of £ 450. Negotiations ensued between the Corpora- tion, the Board of Trade, and the Local Gov- ernment Board, with the satisfactory result tlhat the promotion of a, bill is rendered un- necessary, the Departments having found—as both the Corporation and the Construction Com- pany bad argued from the outset—that the agreement was not on all fours with that at Sudbury. It is understood that a great deal of credit for this is due to Mr Lloyd-George.

TO THE EDITOR CARNARVON SLUMS. Sir,—Having read the report in the 'Herald Cymraeg," touching Uie slums of Carnarvon, and- having befote jne (the report of the Town Council meetings held in February, 1900, and March, 1091, 1 would like to recall to your readers what certain members of the Council said about the slums, when improvement schemes were submitted by the borough sur- veyor—ischemes whioh, by the way, have never I been carried out. Dr Parry is reported as having said as fol- l'ows po They had been told over and over again by the Medical Officer of Health that people caime to reside in the town who occupied their time by cadging and begging, and tkk was because there was accommodation for them here. These people not only endan- gered the health of the town, but also re- spectability." Mr Fletcher sa.id that it was sickening to listen sometimes to the reports of the Sani- tary Inspector upon the houses in the slum parts of the town. These places were simply abominable, and the sooner they did away with same, the better." Later, come the Baptist-street scheme, and Mr Norman Davies is reported as having said that "he was glad of the (scheme, as it would do I away with the worst slum in the town^f- Atfer reading the remarks, one cannot deny but that we have slums in our town. and I would like to know if the Council have done anything to the places which these gentlemen say are slums, except the big wall at Tan'rallt. Yours, rete., RIP VAN WINKLE. 29th November, 1906. ——

LORD STANLEY OF ALDERLEY A GENEROUS APPRECIATION. In the Parliamentary page of the "Speaker," that brilliant journalist, IMr. H. W. Massing- ham, discussing the Education Bill debates in the House ILords, writes:- Much the most striking personality which the debates in the (Lords have developed is Lord Stanley of Alderley. This remarkable man has never had quite so large and con- spicuous stage for his great talent. Perhaps he is the one living peer who can be compared with the great (Lord Shaftesbury for the character and range of his work for the public. The fruit of that work, accomplished for the most part in humble committee-rooms, stands out now in the daily and hourly dis- comfiture of the bench of bishops and the most thorough and 'brilliant presentment of the work of elementary education in England that has ever been set before the people. You can almost see the lawn sleeves quiver with agitation when this terrible man rises. Not one of these bishops, not all of them put I together—excepting the 'Bishop of Hereford, who, however, has been not a little disappoint- I ing on the Education, Bill—equal him in sin- cerity, power, Tniowledge, public spirit, and oourage. They fear him, and they are abso- lutely unequal to him. The Primate ran away wi:h exceeding haste I and much discretion when "Lord Stanley fell upon him and tore his contractin go-out amend- upon him and tore his contract in e-out amend- ment to pieces, worrying it with almost un- sportsmanlike cruelty. Half a dozen such advocates Of popular rights against clerical assumption would hav» destroyed the position of ihe Lords. As it is, I he is a. very great figure in the battle for his I clear, objective mind furnishes the trup con- trast to the sophistry with which the Primate and his colleagues have covered this contro- versy.

MERIONETH P01ICE COMMITTEE THE APPOINTMENT OF CLERK. SHOULD HE LIVE IN THE COUNTY? A special meeting of the above commttee was held at Dolgelley on Tuesday, Mr 0. Slanev j Wynne (chairman) presiding. There were also present: Hon C. H. Wynn. Col. Evans Lloyd, Dr John Jones, Messrs W. R. M. Wynne R S. Wayne, R. Prvs Owen, C. E. Munro Ed- wards, E.

The Chairman having explained that the first business of the meeting was to apnoint » clerk in the place of the late Mr Robert i Jones, pending the appointment of a permanent clerk. 'Mr (Randall Casson was unanimously appointed. Several dates having been suggested f^r the pnnointment, it was finally resolved that a special meeting- be held at, *Dol2*]ley on Mon- I day, December 17th, for that purpose, .i.nd it was further resolved that the terms of the appointment be discussed aJid fixed at tha.t meeting. Mr R. E. Roberts Should not the clerk re- side in the county? The Hon. C. H. Wvnn It is very immaterial whether he resides in the county or not. The last two clerks did not. Mr William Hughes M.d that the general feeling was that the office, at all events/should be in the county. iHe did not believe there was another case in Wales where, the clerk of the peace and the cleric of the County Council did not live in the county. Mr W. R. M. Wynne said that the clerk of the peace had an office in the Connty Hall. He proposed that the points he settled at the next meeting. The suggestion of Mr W. R. M. Wynne was adopted.

NEW RECTOR OF I.LANYSTUMDWY THE VICAR OF CONWAY TO SUCCEED THE LATE ARCHDEACON. The Rev J. P. Lewis, M.A., Vicar of Conway has been appointed by the patron, the Bishop of Bangor, to succeed the late Ven. Arch- deacon Williams 116 Rector of Llanystumdwy. The new Rector of Llanystumdwy was born in Birkenhead in 1857, his fait-her being curate at Holy Ti-T\ly Church, under Dr Baily. His first curacy was at Llandudno, from 1881 to 1883, then he went to Wrexham under Deaoi Howell until 1888; then to Gresford until 1891; and then to Welshpool until 1893, when he was appointed Vicar of Conway. He was edfuoated under his brother-in-law, the late Dr Lewis Lloyd, Bishop of Bangor, at Friars and Brecon, and is a. Master of Arts of New Col- lege, Oxford. The net income of the living of Conway is stated at £,168 with blouse, while the net in- 1:8 PG-WJS sr jkriAi[ jC.'w,puini^SuCu'B|rj; 10 otuoo JBXL8 with. house. The new Rector is known as a vigorous ton- troversialTIial; but in his personal relations, he, is very genial.

MR ELLIS OWEN'S POST APPOINTMENT DEFENDED BY MR. ILLOYD-GEORGE. Mr D. A. Thomas asked the President of the Board of Tratde whethior Mr Ellis Owen, the newly-appointed 'Official (Receiver for the Mer- thyr district was for some years connected with the Press at Carnarvon, and at present, occupies the position of manager and1 editor of the "Brecon and Radnor Express," and whether he had had any legal trainiing or experience in ac- countancy, and what other qualifications he has for the post. (Mr Lloyd-George Mr Elllis Owen, the newly appointed Official Receiver of the .North Gla- morgan district, who will give all his time to the duties of the post, has been for about six years manager and editor of the "IBrecon and Radnor Express." He had previously been associated with the management of other news- paper offices. In these posts of management he had had a good deal of practical, and in one instance of exceptional experience in account- ancy. He is a man of undoubted business apti- tude, and I find that he is described by the leaklinglWeLsh i(Jonserviativ(e paper ats "An exceptionally keen business man," In my opinion, the experience which a business man acquires in dealing with affairs and with men may in some cases, be an even better qualifica- tion for an Official Receiver than a legal educa- tion. I have satisfied myself that Mr Owen is fully qualified for the post to which he hais been appointed!, and I am glad to observe that the leading South Wales paipers of both parties also take that view.

CARNARVON COUNTY COURT A FAMILY DISPUTE. WEDNESDAY.—Before his Honour Judge Moss. FAMILY DISPfUTE.—Jn this. action moo plaintiffs were William Jones and John Jones, 41, Marcus-street, and the defendant was their sister, Mrs M. A. Roberts, Marcus-street.— Mr R. A. Griffith (instructed by Mr R. Ro- berts) was for the plaintiffs, and Mr Mont- gomery (instructed by Mr D. P. Thomas) for the defendant.—Mr Griffith said tihat the ac- tion arose out of the v. ill f John Jones, of Vavnol House., 'Portdinorwic, which was made in March, 1889, and under which the testator made his daughter, the defendant, executrix, and bequeathed to her twenty-four sixty- fourths yihiares fin \tJhJe jbrigantime '"Bessie Rowe," together with whatever money might be left at the Old Bank, Carnarvon. The re- sidue of the real and personal property was bequeathed to ——, t!he name space being left blank. The testator died1 on the 9th October, 1905, and on the 4th November the will was proved: by the defendant as executrix. At the time of tihe testator's death there was stand- ing to his credit at Lloyd's Bank, Portdinor- wic, a sum of JB119 lis 2d. Prior to the testa- tor's death the vessel had foundered off the coast of Scotland, and a sum of JB440 had been paid to him as the sole owner by the insurance company to cover the total loss. -after all charges had been paid there was a considerable balance in favour of the testator, and this money-£205 lis 2d--was paid to his credit at the bank at Portdinorwic, to which it was transferred from Carnarvgn. Mr Griffith submitted that the taoney was in- eluded in the residue not disposed' of by the will, -and that, Itiherefore,it should, go to the next-of-kin; that was, it should be equally divided among the plaintiffs and defendant.- His Honour asked whether the parties could not, come to some arrangement.—Mr Mont- gomery replied that his client considered tlhat it was a gross attempt to diminish the estate.— Robert Owen, ship broker, called by Mr Mont- gomery, said; that he drew out the testator's will for him.—His, Honour said tlhat his diffi- culty in the case was whether was an intestacy as to five-eighth's of the shares in the vessel.— Mr Griffith' remarked' that the forty shares were not disposed of at all by the will.—His Honour: Certainly there would have been an j intestacy had the testator died owning the vessel.—Jii'dgmeift was reserved. CLAIM FOR WORK DONE —Ed. Lloyd, sailor, Carnarvon, claimed E3 16s from T. l Griffith, carter, Carnarvon, for unloading a steamer. Mr J. T. Roberts was for the plain- tiff, and Mr R. Roberts for the defendant.- Mr J. T. lYoberts said that on the 28th Sep- tember, the plaintiff met the defendant who asked him if he wanted a. job to discharge a steamer laden with flour. The plaintiff said that .he would take the job, and it was agreed that payment should be" at the rate of is per ton. Plaintiff engaged' a number of men, eight in all, to assist' him, but after the work was completed, the defendant refused to pay t,he plaintiff the sum agreed upon, and offered £ 1. The defence, he understood, was that the defendant did not engage, the plaintiff, and that a man named' William Owen, Who had charge of a flour warehouse at the dock was responsible for the arrangement made with the plamtiff. The latter, however, would say that he had no dealings with anybody but the defendant.-Edward Lloyd, the plaintiff, said that there were 76 tons of flour in the steamer which he agreed to discharge at the rate of Is per ton. TFe madle no bargain w?th William Owen. The defendant offered witness a sovereign, but he refused to accept it, ;and in- sisted upon being paid at the rate of Is per ton. — Cross-examined It took them seven hours and a half to unload, the vessel, and each man was entitled to 9s 6d. He. was not aware that the defendant's bill against the. owners of the cargo was only £2 17s gd.-Jobn .Tones, one of the men engaged by the plaintiff, said that the defendant asked him to change a sovereign, adding that JBI was enough for them for tihe work they had done.-Cross- examined, witness said that he was usually paid 6d an hour for unloading the, "Chris- tiana, but m the case in dispute, a contract was made.—His Honour It is common for men to makle £ 1 to-day and nothing to-morrow at the docks.—Mr R. Roberts But not in Carnarvon. Continuing, Mr Roberts said that the defendant had absolutely nothing to do with the discharging of the vessel. He had only contraoctedl to caTt the flour from the steamer to the warehouse at the dock, and for that work he got .£2 17s 9d. The sum claimed by the plaintiff for discharging the v'essel was altogether unreasonable.—'Ihe Defendant said that he had nothing- to do with engaging the plaintiff. That was done by Owen, alldhe had referred the pia,ilitiff to the. latter. Cioss- examined iHe did not offer either Lkyd or John Jones JBl.—Mr J. T. 'Roberts: Do you seriously say so?—The Defendant: Yes.—Do you say that what Lloyd has said is untrue? I dÍdi Hot produce any coin.—The Judge: Did the man Jones bring you any change back? I -never had any change.—Mr J. T. Roberts Do you say that John. Jones concocted the story!' I never produced a sovereign at alI.- Judgment for the plaintiff with costs.

"It was only two years a,go," sa,id Ðragley, "that I) startedl in with OUT firm at jBl a week, and now I earn £ 10.Ye6?" replied Wiseman, "it's easy to earn that, but how much do you get?"

THE REMARKABLE ANGLESEY COMPENSATION CASE. Quite recently, and with an expression of regret at the hardship he was inflicting, Judge S. Moss ruled at the Menai Bridge 'County Court that a labourer, lent by a farmer to another farmer to assist him in the harvesting, was not entitled to recover compensation in the event of his meeting with an accident while in such temporary employment. Judge Moss' decision has been held to be sound law, and there remained nothing for the unfortunate Anglesey claimant but submission. The atten- tion of Mr Alfred Mond, M.P. for Chester (a director of runner, Mond, and Co.), has been directed to the case, and he has entered the following amendment to be inserted in the report stage of the Workmen's 'Compensation Bill. Clause 1, page 2, line 8, at the end insert: (¡D) No workman who would otherwise be entitled to recover compensation against his employer in respect of any accident shall be disentitled to recover such compensation against such employer by reason only of such accident having occurred during a period the workman has been lent by his employer to a third party."

THE HUDDERSFIELD ELECTION LIBERAL VICTORY. The polling in the three-cornered fight at GEuddersfield resulted in the Liberals retaining the Parliamentary seat, Mr Arthur Sherwell being returned by a majority of 340 over the Labour-Socialist candidate, Mr Russell Wil- liams. The total poll was less than at the election in January. The Liberal and the Labour votes each showed a small decrease, and the Conservative vote an increase of 45j5. Mr Sherwell describes the result as a most signi- ficant expression of confidence in the intention and ability of the Government to go through with their programme of social reform, and of the people's determination to have done with the mutilating and hindering tactics of the House of Lords.

A SERVANT GIRL'S STORY SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST ANGLESEY YOUTH. At the Holyhead Petty Sessions on Wednes- day, a youth named David Morris, living at Tycroes, Llanrhyddlad, was charged with an indecent assault. Mr R. Gorcvoai Roberts pro- secuted, and Mr T. R. Evans was for the de- fence. Elizabeth Owen, Isle of Man, Llanfaethlu (aged 16), deposed thalt on September 28th, she met the defe-ndiant and another youth at Rhyd- wyn. Defendant caught hold of her and re- fused to let her go. At last hie left her, and she started home with two children. When they reachedl Gwlgri Gate defendant and an- other youtfu came up to tihem. Defendant took hold of her round the waiste, and' she, repeatedly, requested him to desist. The other youth left them, and. she went to Cerigydruid- ion with the children, and stayed there about fifteen minuftes. Whedi she came out Morris had disappeared, and she proceeded on her way home. The defendant came up to her at Ty Mwdwal, and again put his arm round her waist. At 'Rynys Gate he threw her down on the, road, and attempted to commit the assault complained of. He placed her hands on her breast and pressed them down with his chiest; she screemed, and he kept putting his hands on her mouth. After half an hour s struggle ihe suddenly ran away. She felt quite nervous. Mr E. Jones, "Rynys, having heard her screams, then appeared, and inquired what was tine mtartJter. iShe replied The servant of Tycroes would! not leave me alone. Owing to the absence through illness of the principal witness, Elizabeth Owen's sister, the case was adjourned.

LLANGEFNI COUNTY COURT TUESDAY.—before his Honour Jqfdge S. MaVEICULIAR CASE—Hugh Roberts, Maes- oglan, Llangaffo, sued -Henry Jones, Barras, for the sum of £ 2 15s, as pay- ment for a sheep and lamb which, it was alleged, had strayed on to the defendant's land and had! not- been returned) The case excited considerable interest amongst the farming 1 classes—Mr S. R. Dew, Bangor, appeared for the plaintiff, and the defendant was repre- sented by Mr -Richard Roberts, Carnarvon; Mr David Owen, having a watching brief for the defence. The case had been part- ly heard at a previous Court, and occupied the whole of the day in hearing.—'Hugh Davies, farm bailiff said that in June last he saw a sheep and lamb igoing into Trefelin field.-The plaintiff was re-called and testified) to ng a sheep and! a lamb which he was certain were his amongst Henry Jones's nock.—In coss- examination, he could not explain why he went to look elsewhere for the sheep and lamb, and admitted that he had also advertised for their recovery.—Mr Richard (Roberts, for the defence, said that Mr (Henry Jones had a field in which he grazed 40 sheep and lambs and he knew them all. Their was one stray lamb amongst them, but no sheep. He sheared his 40 sheep and put two fleeces into one bundle, making 39 bundles in all. Plaintiff had gone elsewhere to look for his sheep and advertised to recover the sheep and lamb, which was proof that he was not satisfied as to the sheep and lamb that he alleged belonged to him.—<Mr Hfe/iiry Jones, the defendant, said that he stamped the sheep right and left. He paid lld for each sheep and paid in all 56 for the shear- ing. Mr Roberts had asked him if he could have the stray lamb, to which he answered in the amrmative.—Mr William Humphreys Jones, owner of the farm on which Mr 'Henry Jones's sheep were grazing, gave corroborative evidlence.Pierce Williams, shearer, said that he had sheared 40 sheep in all. Personally he bad sheared 24, and a mate did 16 sheep, for which he received 5s, at the rate of l^d a head. He had entered it into a book, which book he now produced in Court.—iP.C. Jones, Bryn- siencyn, and! several other witnesses were called for the defence, the evidence going to show that the plaintiff was in uncertainty as to the whereabouts of his sheep and lamb.—^His Honour, in delivering judgment, stated that this was a most unsatisfactory case from be- ginning to end, and his mind was in no way clear about it. Plaintiff had spoken most posi- tively as to catching the sheep and fettering it, and his son had confirmed him in this state- ment. On the other hand, defendant and other's had denied this flatly, and said that no fettering had taken place. The evidence that weighed with him was that of the shepherd, who had 'sworn to washing and shearing 40 sheep, and had made an entry of the transac- tion at the time. He was bound to say that upon much of the evidence on both sides he looked with great suspicion. He would de- liver judgment for the defendant.—Mr S. R. Dew: Without costs, I hope.—His Honour I cannot stay costs against the plaintiff, though to some extent he was. perhaps, justified in bringing the action.Plaintiff was nonsuited and ordered to pay costs.-His Honour re- marked that the lamb which was mentioned as having been taken away by plaintiff from de- fendant's farm and afterwards returned had nothing to do with the case, as it did not be- long to either of the litigants. THE HORSE THAT CAMiE IN SECOND.— John Roberts, blacksmith, 'Beaumaris, sued Col. Arbutnot. Gloucester, for the recoverv of C9 for the hire of a horse to his son for hunting purposes.—Mr R. 'Gordon-Roberts appeared for the plaintiff, and the defendant appeared in person, and said that he intended to defend the case without the aid of a solicitor.—Mr R. Gordon-'Roberts said that the defendant's son had hired a horse for hunting, and subsequently run the horse at Beaumaris, races, coming in second. A plea of infancy was put in, but Mr Roberts contended that this was not available, L as sufficient notice had not been given. It transpired that an earlier notice had also been received, andnis Honour allowed the plea. Mr Roberts said that his contention was that Col. Arbut-not was aware of his son's riding. He did it with- the consent ard knowledge of his father His father had written to s'v that he j had no knowledge of the case, and that under thp circumstances he would advice his son. even if he had money, not to nay.—The plaintiff ?:aid that the horse was a first-class iumrw.—.The pise was adjourned to the next /Holyhead i Cffflirt.

BANGOR INFIRMARY ANNUAL MEETIVG OF GOVERNORS. DECREASE IN SUBSCRIPTIONS- The annual meeting of Governors of the Carnarvonshire and Anglesey Infirmary was held yesterday. Mr H. Clegg (the President) occupied the chair. Among others present were Lady Per.rhyn, Miss Davies (Treborth.), Miss Jones (Bodnant), Miss Hughes (Bryn Menai), Dean of Bangor, the Rev W. Edwards, M.A. (senior vicar), the Rev T. Gasquoine, B.A., Dr Grey Edwards, Dr E. 0. Price, Messrs Donald Cameron, W. Thornton Jones, R. W. Roberts (Menai Bridge), T. Pritchard (Llwydiarth Esgob), W. P. Mathews, and James Smith (secretary. PRESIDENT'S REPORT. In his report for the year, the President stated that the work of the infirmary had been carried on most satisfactorily and many most important surgical operations had been per- formed with-great success, and thus much suffering had been relieved and lives saved'. Great praise was due to the medical and nurs- ing staff for all their exertions, patience, and attention to the sick poor. There had been several changes in the nursing staff during the past year, and difficulties had arisen as to the supply of probationary nurses, who formerly had to pay jBlO for the year's training. The House Committee ihad had in some cases to forego that payment. A change took place during the year in the post of house surgeon, and as time had proved the committee made a happy selection in appointing, Dr Middle- week (in place of Dr White, who resigned) to the office, and who had performed the duties most satisfactorily during the past ten months. He was sorry to draw attention to the de- crease in the amount of lannual subscriptions caused by t'be death or removal from the dis- trict especially he regretted the loss of Mr Robert Davies, who was a generous supporter and annual subsciiber of JE20. Thanks were due to those ladlies and friends of the infirmary who so ably and successfully inaugurated and carried out the hospital Saturday collections. A sum of JE400 had been repaid to the trea- surer, being a redemption of part of one of the loans on capital account, and such sum had not yet been re-inves'ted. Many years ago an investment was made by a mortgage of L650 on a house and premises at Llanfair- fedhan, which was then vadued' at £ lliOOO. This property had lately been taken posses- sion of on behalf of the infirmary. It was offered for sale, but unsuccessfully, and as the tenant of the premises had also .given up pos- session, the infirmary now suffered a loss of annual income of about JB30 17s 6d, besides having the keeping up of the premises on their hands. He again wished to point out that a change in the office of president was advisable, as it was always contemplated that the term of office should be for one year only, and he had now held such office since 1893. FINANCIAL. From the statement of accounts, it ap- peared that. during the year the Established Churches of Carnarvonshire contributed JB28 9s 2d towards the institution, and those of Anglesey £ 28 4s 4d. The Calvini'stic Method- ist churches of Carnarvonshire contributed £6 4s, the Baptist churches £1 Is, the Congrega- tional churches L7 7s. The Calvinistdc Methodist churches of Anglesey contributed £ 25 2s 8d. In various donations JB304 Û6 8d were received. DECREASE IN SUBSCRIPTIONS. Commenting upon the financial position of the infirmary, the President said' that the state- ment of accounts showed that there was this year again a scarcity of money to meet ex- penditure, which amounted to JB1585, as com- pared with aIJ income of JB1423. There was thus a deficit on the year's working of £ 16Z. Moreover, they started the year with an ad- verse balance of JB25, and the total deficit, therefore, was £421. Unfortunately, the in- come had decreased, this being due, to a great extent, to the death of some subscribers and' the removal of others from the district. As compared with 'last' year the income for this year showed a decrease of JB83. The collec- tions made by the Established Churches in Car- narvonshire showed -an increase of £4 1581 7d" and in Anglesey of JB18 18s 3d, as compared with last year. On the other hand, the chapel collections showed a decrease, in Carnarvon- shire of £ 27, and in Anglesey of £ 1 12s. The annual subscriptions also showed a decrease of B21 19s as oompared with last year, Miss Davies asked whether the Arvon Month- ly Meeting had sent in their subscription. The Secretary replied that last year he re- oeived two sums from the Arvon Monthly Meeting. He was afraid that one sum was meant for this year. Miss Davies: Was it not meant for the year before? (laughter). The Secretary: I am afraid not. He re- minded the governors that last year the com- mittee received a special donation of £100, whioh was not forthcoming this year. Mr J. Glynne Jones remarked that there were between £ 5000 and JB6000 invested! on mortgage sureties, and he .asked whether it would not be advisable to take steps to inspec.t the properties from time to time to see whether the sureties were sufficient for the amount lent. The President said that that matter was re- oeiving the attention of the committee. Lady Penrhyn said that she was very pleased to find that there was a substantial decrease — £ 22—in the amount spent upon wines, spirits, etc., during the year as compared with the previous year. The patients did not seem to have, been placed under any disadvantage in consequence of the reduction. The st&tem'ent of accounts was adopted. "ELECTION OF PRESIDENT. The Dean of Bangor progosed the re-election of Mr Clegg as president, and said that every- thing had gone on well under Mr Clegg. Mr Mathews seconded! the motion, which was carried unanimously. The President briefly returned thanks for t'hie mark of renewed confidence in him. HON. TREASURER AND AUDITORS. Lloyd's Bank were reappointed hon. treasurers and Messrs Pughe and Pritchard hon. auditors. THANKS. Ths. President proposed a vote of thanks to the medical offioers of the city and the hon. chaplain (Rev W. Edwards) for their services during the year. (Lady Penrhyn seconded the motion, which was adopted. Dr Grey Edwards, in returning thanks on behalf of the medical profession, said that the infirmary had been of great service during the yeair, but stiH he did not think that the same advantage was taken of the institution as in nrevious years. A great deal more good might be done if more cases could be attracted into the hospital. He suggested that a copy of the year's report be sent to the members of the medicaj profession in Anglesey and Carnarvon- shire. This might be the means of getting the medical men in the two counties to take a greater interest in the institution, and to send there cases for operation. The suggestion was ahopted. THE DISPENSARY. A report with reference to the dispensary was adopted. It stated that the dispensary had now completed its 13th year with a mem- bership roll as follows:—Port Penrhyn Club, 87; Railway Men's Club, 122; Tailors' Club, 44; general members, 136; total, 389—which1 was ennival?nt to about 1000 individuals, so that the number was keeping up steadily. At the same time it is felt that there was still a s-ood number who ought to be on the dispensary f()]I. but who had not yet availed themselves of its benefits. Whether this was owing to im- providence, indifference, or to the dispensary rules not being sufficiently well known could ■not safely be said, but probably it was partly from all the causes named. At same time there were sitrns of awakening. It had' come to the knowledge of the committee that the R'Mifror Free Church Council had recently taken nn ioh. matter and sent circulars to all their churches drawing attention to the dispensary and requesting that the institution should be advocated among th& classes for whose needs it is established. The deficit is rather less than usual, viz., £63..

Earlv on Stmdnv morning, the Cardigan Bay coast, of Merionethshire was visited by a. severe storm of hail and snow. Cader Idris and the surrounding beigbts were snow-capped on Monday.

I MASQUERADING AS A WOMAN AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE AT CARNAR- VON. ( At a Special County Police Court, at Carnar- ] von, on Monday, before Dr Parry, William Thomas Rowlands, a youth of 17^ who had, until recently, resided at the Llanerchymedd Workhouse, was charged with several offences. iSupt Griffith told' the Bench that the defen- da.nt was arrested at Llanberis on Saturday for stealing a shawl from Compton House and for obtaining tho sum of 18s ibv false pretences I from W. 0. Thomts, of the Dolbadarn Hotel. I He was also chargd with obtaining, by false ) pretences, ladies attire consisting of a. skirt, nightshirt,, a motor veil, anctqa. blouse, from the ideo Hive, Llanberisi. There were further charges of obtaining by false pretences from the Golden 'Goat, Carnarvon, a black skirt with frillings round the bottom, blouse, cashmere cap, two yardls of chiffon, one yard of lace, one yard of veil, long black coat, combinations, umbrella, and a pennyworth of safety pins, etc., all of which, with the exception of the corsets which he carried in parcel form, he was wear- ing when arrested by the police. 'He had also obtained a pair of boots from Messrs Dick's shop under similar circumstances. The value of the articles he obtained at the Golden Goat was L2 19s, and Supt. Griffith added that defendant went to the shop with a note purporting to have been written by his grandmother, who lived at Clwtybont. In I the letter a request was made that, as there had been a death from fever in the house, tha.t I nobody should be sent up from the shop but that the goods be supplied to the beaTer. The grandmother being a good customer and known I to the proprietor, Mr (Pierce, the goods were I handed to the defendant, who then obtained a pair of boots from Dicks' shop under the same pretences. 'He next proceeded to a lodging-house, where he dressed as a girl, using the articles which he had obtained at the Golden Goat, and left his own clothes behind. Afterwards he strolled about the town, and at a late hour he called at a lodging-house for a bed. On being told that the house was full up, he asked to be allowed to sleep with the I servant, but he met with a negative reply. He next went to Llanberis, where he changed pao-fi of his clothing, and, was arrested' there bJj Sergeant Jones. "It was never suspected but that he was a woman," said Supt. Griffith. "IHe gave his name as Jennie ^Edwards, afterwards as Katie Edwards, and then as Annie 'Edwards. I am told that, it is not the first time he has been masquerading in this way." Supt. Griffith, proceeding, said that when de- fendant was taken to the Police Station, he persisted that he was a woman. The police, however, were suspicious, especially after he removed his motor-cap, and defendant eventu- ally consented to be examined by a doctor. Dr tParry He was convinced then Supt. Griffith: Yes, beyond all doubt. Oil Monday morning he shammed insanity and tried to strangle himself in the cell with his tie. Hormalj levildtenyie of arreist having beep given by Sergeant Jones, of Llanberis. the de- fendant was remandied in custody until Satur- day.
