EASTER HOLIDAYS. Visitors began to arrive on Thursday, their number was augmented on the following day, and greatly increased on Saturday. On Saturday evening, when the weather was favourable, as. indeed, it has been through- out the holidays, the chief streets presented quite an animated appearance. The number of persons wandering on the shore and on the promenades on the following days indi- cated that the boarding and lodging-houses were well-patronized. We understand that, for instance, the two hydros were well filled, whilst the Marlborough was in a similar condition. And this despite the fact that Easter fell early this year. Yet it was by no means the earliest possible appearance of the festival. It can occur so early as March 22nd, but it very rarely comes so soon. Easter last occurred in March in 1894, when it fell on the 25th. It will next occur on March 23rd in 1913. If regarded purely as a holiday a late Easter-it can occur so late as April 25th-is preferable to an early one, as the very early days of spring are always unpleasantly variable in weather, and gener- ally the country has donned gayer robes, and I y is altogether more delightful in April than it is in March. Early or late, Easter is a wel- come break to men and women who have worked through the winter, and even in March much pleasure may be obtained at the seaside. The religious services on Good Friday in the churches were very we!l attended. The chief service was that known as The Three Hours," from noon till 3 p.m., in St. Thomas's, when the Vicar delivered appro- priate addresses to a devout congregation. The service held in the evening at the Parish Church was remarkably well attended, whilst St John's was fairly crowded. On the fol- lowing day a goodly number of ladies was busy changing the aspect of the churches, in preparation for the Queen of Festivals, and the result in each case was highly satisfac- tory. The various decorators were the following. PARISH CHURCH.—Mrs Lewis Jones, chancel and window Miss Roberts, Fair- holme, pulpit and windows; Miss Edwards, North Wales, font and window Miss Corbett Jones, Miss Griffiths, Miss Evans (Princes St) Miss Lizzie Evans, Miss May Davies windows. Beautifu1 flowers were provided for the altar vases by Mrs John Foulkes. ST. THOMAS'.—Altar Vases, Mrs Tidswell and Mrs Copley Sacrarium, Mrs Storey Choir Stalls, Mrs Roebuck, Miss Lloyd.

Chester Eisteddfod. The Easter Crown Eisteddfod on Monday attrac- ted large numbers of Welsh visitors. The Sheriff of Chester (Mr Cecil Davies) presided over the afternoon meeting, Dr Emrys-Jones, Manchester, being the conductor. Four choirs had entered for the chief choral competition for male voices for a prize of £ 20, and a silver crown, but the Manchester Orpheus Prize Glee Society, (conducted by Mr W S Nesbitt) was the only one that appeared. The test piece was Trysorau'r Dyfnder," and after a highly meritorious rendering of the work this choir was awarded a prize of A;10 and silver crown. Other awards were --Baritone solo. J R Davies, Cefn Mawr Welsh recitation, Evan Thomas, Liverpool pianoforte sole, J J Parry, Holywell juvenile choir contest, Treflawnyd Juvenile Choir, conducted by Mr Arthur Wi ms; soprano solo, Nellie Lewis, Bootle. At the evening meeting Colonel Corn wallis-West presided over a crowded audiencg, being accompanied by Lady Olivia Fitz- patrick and the Mayoress of Chester. The chief competition of the evening was a choral contest for mixed voices, for a prize of ten guineas and silver- plated cup The competingchoirs were Grosvenor Park, Chester, Hanley Welsh Choral Society, and Wedgwood Choir, Crewe. The prize fell to the last-named choir, conducted byMrG Timms. The pianoforte solo competition was won by Ethel Briggs, Manchester, and the English recitation by Morris Granger.

ROYAL ALEXANDRA HOSPITAL AND CONVALESCENT HOME. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales have graciously consented to visit Rhyl on Monday the 12th of May next, to open the new buildings of the Royal Alexandra Hospital, which have been erected at a cost of over R40,000, and of which the Foundation Stone was laid by Her Majesty Queen A lexandm in 1894. The Committee of the Hospital are very anxious that. the comparatively small amount, some £ 2,500, which is still required for the building fund should be raised before the Royal visit, so that the Hospital may then be opened free of debt. With this object there will be a Presenta- tion of Purses by children to H.R.H. the Princess of Wales at the opening Ceremony, which will take place at 1 p.m., in a spacious Marquee in the Hospital grounds, each purse containing not less than £ 5. The charges for admission to the reserved and numbered seats in the Marquee will be one guinea, but the children who present the purses, and one person in charge of each child will be admit- ted free. The Committee also wish to make it as widely known as possible that a lady has generously offered £50 towards making up the deficiency in the building fund if ten similar sums can be obtained before the I Opening Day. Donations to enable the Committee to claim the fulfilment of this kind offer will be gratefully received by the Hon. Secretaries, either of whom will readily give further information if desired. They would also like to know as soon as possible the names of those who desire to take part in the Presentation of Purses to the Princess of Wales. Silk purses of appropriate design will be supplied by the Committee. It, may be mentioned that this is one of the very few existing Seaside Hospitals for chil- dren and it would be difficult to over-esti- mate the beneficial effects of pure sea air in the cure of certain forms of disease. Every year over 700 patients are received, mostly from the large towns of Staffordshire, Che- shire, Shropshire, Warwickshire, Lancashire and other English Counties, and numbers of weak and suffering children are restored to health. An earnest appeal is now made to all who sympathize with this good work, which has been honoured with such special marks of Royal interest and sympathy. ARTHUR MESHAM, Chairman of Committee. R. W. WILLIAMS WYNN, R. M. HUGH JONES, Hon. Secretaries.

RHUDDLAN. Death of an Old Inhabitant. On the 16th nIt, the death took place of Mrs Mary Wynne. of Church St, widow of Mr Charles Wynne, of Ffordd Criccin. The deceased had been in failing health for some time, and was carefully attended during her illness by her daughter. She had rearhed the age of 85 years, when she died. The funeral took place on the 20th, and was attended by a large number of the general public, showing the great respect in which deceased was held in Rhuddlan. Amongst the family present were Mr Thos. Wynne (Rhyl) son, Mrs C Hughes (Flint;, Mrs Prudence Jones and A Jones (Broughton), Mrs Ellis (Rhyl), Mrs Jane Jones (St. Asaph), ar d Miss E Wynne (Rbudd- lan), daughters. The service at the house was conducted by the'Rev B Evans, and in the church and at the graveside by the Vicar (Rev X W Vaughan). The "Dead March" was played by the organist (Mr T Davis). Wreaths were sent by Miss Wynne (Llanrwst), Miss Evans (Bryn- ffynnon), by members of the family, and others. The Parish Church. An English Service was held on Good Friday morning, and a Welsh Service in the evening, the Vicar officiating at both services. On Easter Day there were four celebrations of Holy Coram union, at 8, 10, 11, and after the Evening service, and the number present at each celebration far exceeded preceding years. The choir (under the leadership of Mr Ed. Enns) sang anthems for the occasion, Mr T Davies being at the organ. The Vicar officiated at all the services. Vestry. On Wednesday, the 9th inst, the annual Vestry takes place, for the appointment of Church officials &c. Football. On Easter Monday the Rhuddlan Football journeyed to Llanfair PG., to take-part in the Football Competition at that place. The team was composed as follow3 :-Goal, R T Jones backs, Phillip Evans and Jas. Hughes; half-backs, Ber- nard Jones, H Pritchard, and W T Jones for- wards, T A Jones, W Jones, T E Griffiths. Jos. Pickering, and R Twist LinesmaD, Chas Jones Although having been drawn a bye in the first round, they were obliged to play in that round, and met Penygroes, whom they defeated by 1 goal to nil. In the next round they met Llanfair P G., and as some members of that team were also members of the Committee (who were the court of appeal), Rhuddlan objected to play, and finally walked off the field. Other clubs did the same, as they were of opinion that a club composed of several committee-men would not grant them fair-play, committee-men being supposed to be a kind of court for the players to appeal to, should they be dissatisfied with the composition or play of an opposing team. Band of Hope Entertainment. On Thursday evening an entertainment was given at the Boys' School by the children attending the Church Band of Hope. In the afternoon the members partook of an excellent tea which bad been provided for rhem, when the following ladies presided at the tables :—Mrs Vaughan, The 'N iearage, and Miss Ethel Vaughan, assisted by Mrs Edward Evans, High Street, and Miss Walmsley, Marian \illas, the icar also being untiring in 'his efforts to see that all enjoyed the good things pro vided for them. The entertainment commenced at 7 30. I A raised platform bad been prepared for the children and they presented a most pleasing appearance, the scene being very picturesque. The programme, which wis slightly supplemented, opened with a sang by Miss Fanny Jones, who is a great local fa% ourite, possessing a sweet voice, who sang with her usual good tasto The British Tar." Then Mr Edward Evans, another local favourite, followed, and sang in his usual effective style Llwybr y Wyddfa," Miss Annie Davies also rendering a song which was much appreciated. Miss Davies possesses a voice which is sweet and of good range, and is always well received. Then came a duet, Howel a Blodwen Joseph Parry), by Miss Fanny Jones and Mr Edward Evans, whose voices blended nicely, the rendering being very effective. The children then took np their parts, which consisted of a cantata, "The White Garland." Ttie recitations were taken by Miss Emily Davies, who took the part of Queen; Alice Davies, soloist; Florrie Jones, the Generous Scholar; Myfanwy Evans,- Perse- ve:'ence Iorwerth Evans, the Tardy Scholar; Alfred Devey, the Quarrelsome Scholar; Willie Davies, part song; Willie Roberts, the Selfish Scholar; Norman Jones, Punctuality. Ihe performance of the cantata passed off without a hitch, and considering that the whole was performed by children, it reflected the gi-etest credit on those who had been instructing them in their various parts, viz., Mr Edward Evans, conductor, and Miss Walmsley, accompanist. At the conclusion of the cantata the Vicar, the Bev T W \aughan, said he would not let the opportunity pass without expressing his deep sense of gratitude to Miss Walmsley and Mr Ed Evans for their self-sacrificing and faithful services in connection with the Baud of Hope meetings during the winter months. They had been most indefatigable in their endeavours to teach the children the cantata they had listened to that night, as well as to instil into their minds the habits of temperance, thrift, good behaviour, and all that tended to the promotion of their moral and spiritual welfare. The attendance at the meetings during the session had been excellent. Miss Walmsley, by presiding at the piano, had given valuable assistance, and Mr Edward Evans had been untiring in his efforts to teach the children. He had no need to tell them that the per- form ince that night reflected the greatest credit upon Miss Walmsley and Mr Evans, as the rendering of the cantata was in every respect highly satisfactory. He desired to thank them most heartily fnr their services and co-operation in this good work. He also desired to express his thanks to the ladies who had presided at the tea, as well as to all the others who bad rendered assistance that evening, and to all who had supported the Band of Hope by their presence that evening. Mr E Evans spoke a few words on behalf of himself and Miss Walmsley, and said it gave him great pleasure to be of some use in furthering the work promoted by the Band 0f Hope. The proceedings concluded with God Save h King." The Welsh Congregationalists. On Good Friday the annual Preaching Meeting in connection with the above denomination was held. The ministers announced to take part were the Revs J Machreth Rees, London, and Ben Davies, Panteg, Ystalyfeia. Mr liees, at the last moment, \ns una'de t°i take part owing to illness, and his place was filled by the R"V D R iberts, Llanuwchllyn. Tlw ruef'ting "omme1\c',Jd on Thursday evening, and c ;ntinurd throughout the following day, the preliminary part in the afternoon of Friday being taken by the Rev S Thomas, Newmarket. and in the evening by the Rev W Jones, St Asaph. All the services were well attended, and the preaching much appreciated. This meeting has been held annually for over 40 years, and there are some connected with the plare cf worship who have been present at each service during the whole of that time.

EASTER MEETING OF THE RHYL GOLF CLUB, The Easter Meeting of the Rhyl Golf Club has been of a very successful character. The club has now a membership of upwards of 150, and it is confidently expected that when the course is enlarged to 18 holes there will be a marked increase. The extension is contemplated. The links are considered to be the best in North Wales, and no club can boast of a more delightful situa- tion, the course being situated in an ideal position, while the air is most invigorating. The entry for the Easter meeting were the largest yet received, and in every way the gathering was most success- ful. Mr J Wild acted as hon sec, and under his direction everything passed oft well.

DENBIGH. The Yeomanry. The anxiety that has been felt as to the where- abouts of the Denbighshire Yeomanry, of whom no word has been heard for a long time, will now be dispelled, for letters have just been received from the yeomen. One that has reached Chester is dated Klerksdrop, 5th March, and states that the Yeomanry were under orders to go with the illfated British convoy, but they were counter- manded at the last moment. Since that time they had not been out of the saddle. They were I temporarily attached to Colonel Hickie's and Colonel Greenfall's column, 2,500 strong. They went out after Delarey on Friday morning, and succeeded in recapturing a pom-pom and ten wagons. The trooper continues, "Next day after the convoy smash, we made a forced march of 48 miles, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., to prevent Delarey crossing the Vaal and we succeeded, and marched the same distance back next day. We next marched after Delarey, Kemp, and Lillenberg all together in this district, so you may expect some grand captures soon with the Welsh boys after them."

ABERGELE SPECIAL POLICE COURT. Wednesday.—Before Mr T W Mason and Dr Wolsten- holme. A Drunken Musician Assaulting the Police. James Stafford, an itinerant musician, was brought up charged witn being drunk and disorderly, and further with assaulting P.C. Pendlebury in the execution of his duty. Evidence was given showing that the officer, seeing the man in a drunken condition and behaving in a disorderly manner, ordered him out of town and took him beyond Sea road. Later he saw the man in a field, and took him along the road towards Llanddulas. As he was turning back the mau picked up a lot of stones and commenced to pelt him. Waiting until the prisoner had exhausted his ammunition" the officer closed on him, and with assistance locked him up. Stafford was sent to gaol for one month for the first offence, and for two months for the second. A Macintosh Lost and Found. Tbomas Williams, Moulder, Anchor House, Rhuddlan, was charged with stealing a macintosh, the} property of Mr John Roberts, son of Thomas Roberts, Criccin, huddlan. It appeared that the prosecutor and his brother hud a team of horses at the recent ploughing match at Bodoryn. While they were preparing the team to go home they laid their macintoshes on a lurry. When he returned the lurry had been driven away. William Williams, Castle Street, Rhuddlan, the driver of the lurry, finding the coats in the vehicle as he was driving home, and knowing they belonged t) Roberts sent them back by a boy to the field, telling the messenger to leave them in charge of Mr Roach at the refreshment tent. Wm. Owen, Morfa Lodge, the boy in question said he took the coats and left them outside the refreshment tent, and prisoner came and took them inside. That was the last he saw of them. Prosecutor saw the defendant wearing the coat that he bad missed at the Point to Point races on Tuesday and gave informat'on to P.C. Taaffe, who took prisoner into custody, and handed him to P.C. Pendlebury on Tuesday night at Rhyl. Defendant said he found the coat on the road, and had it in his pos?ession as he was walking with P.C. Hughes, of Trefnant, to Rhuddlan Bridge. P.C. David Hughes said that he did not see defendant wearing the coat nor tinding it. Defendant further said that he wore the coat on Satur- day at Rbyl, expecting somebody would identify it. He wore it for the same purpose at the point to point races. The case was dismissed, the magistrates remarking that the fact that prisoner had not removed certain dis- tinguishing marks from the inside of the coat was in his favour.
