Rhyl Pleasant Saturday Evenings.
Rhyl Pleasant Saturday Evenings. A large audience assembled in the Rhyl Town Hall for lasfc Saturday night's popular concert, and a highly enjoyable programme was gone through. The opening item was a pianoforte solo by Mis3 Anwyl, which was well received, wras alio the next piece, A song by Miss Lizzie ETRDS. Master Teddy Middleton was deservedly tncored for another song, in which he proved himself a vocalist of great promise. Nliva Amy Jones' reoita'ion, "The Little Hero," waa another cspiral item, the youthful elocutionist beivg enthusiastically re- called. A charming song was next given by Misa Louie Williams, entitled "Down the vale." Then came the chairman's address—the chairman, by the bye, was Mr R Llsweiyn Jone", C.C. His remarks wcte intended mainly for the juvenile clement of the audience. He urged the young people to make up their minds to excel in some- thicg. It was one of the greatest mistakes they could make to imagine that opportunities for mskiog their mark in the world would never come to them. He reminded them of the case of the late Sir H M Stanley, who, simply because he made the best use of the opportunities that fell to his lot, rose from the very humble position of an inmete of the St Asaph Workhouse to become the great traveller and explorer. Of course they might not all become as distinguished as Sir H.M Stanley, but doing «ven small things well was euro to bring its reward whatever might be their station in life (applause). It was luk of enterprise that they had to con'eml with amongst the children just now. One of the objects of those concerns was to bring oil-, their talents, and ha assured them a hearty reception awaited them whenever they made th"ir appear- ance on that platform (applause). Air A. Lewis Jones, in proposing a vote ot thanks to the chairman, expressed his delight at the enthusiasm which had so far characterised the gathering, which was one of the moBt representative he had see:1 in connection with the movement. He had been particularly slruck with the reception accorded the juveniio performers, aod he hoped that t,h-re would be many volunteers from amonirst the children in iho future (appkuee). These concerts lad already proved a fine school of oxperieuca L'or nitny youthful per- formers (hear, hoar).—The motion was carried with acclamation. The second part of the programme bogMn with a solection on the bigpipea by M r K McEwen, and the subsequent itema were es follows Song, "The Storm Fiend," Mr A W James; recitation, Miss Charlotte Jones song, Sing me to sleep," Miss Lizzie Evans duet, 11 Life's dream is o'er," Miiis Louie Williams end Mr Trebor Jones (eacored); song, "Somebody's Sailor," Ilra Lambert (encored); selections on the bagpipes, Mr K McEwen pianoforte duet, Miss IVinnie Davies and Mr Bryan Warhurst 6'DIl, It Light in Darkness," Miss Louie NVillianiq sang, Big Ben," Mr A W James. Tho dutien of ace,mpaniat were shared by Miss Mabel Hughes and M1 Bryan Wrarhurst. The proceedings termi- nated with a cordul vote of thanks to the perform- ers.
Raphael Tuck Xmas Cards.
Raphael Tuck Xmas Cards. A UNIQUE COLLECTION. Each aucecediug year as Christmas approaches, and we bsgin to pi rjhasc) our greetings of good- will, in the form of Postcards, Christmas Cards, Calendars, or Booklets, we note those issued by the justly famed House of Tuck," and impressed by their beauty of dtsien, colouring and execution, think they must indeed have reachcd the zenith of thtir possibilities. But again and again we have to admit our error. I /a month leads into month and reason verges into season, a whole army of artistes—each individual perfect in his own branch—is steadily working for the success of the Christmas trade. If the beautiful designs were spoiled by being us, d on inferior paper, or marred by bid work- manship and unsuitable words the dYe:t would be greatly minimised. As it is, nothing but the very best passes tho censorship of thosa in com- mand, consequently the result is perfection. The name 4 Raphael Tuck" is indeed its own criticism, and it would be a carping critic who could draw attention to a einglo flaw. For the season of 1904 and 1905, upwards of three thousand entirely new designs have been prepared for Christmas Cards alone, many of them being in the new process known as O'ilette," giving the effect of charming miniature oil paintings. Then there are as usual the exquisite black and white series,reproduced from the works of famous artistes, the ordinary coloured cards—if anything produced by Raphael Tuck can bo called ordinary — humorous cards and post-cards. Of the latter we no'e that the designs now number a grand total of upwards of twenty-five thousand desiprs, and in connection with this branch of their trade Messrs Tuck are offering ona thousand guineas as priz s to purchasers and collectors of cards. The heart of the juvenile world will again nj )ice when they see the treasures that are in store for them, a spacially e ustful line for children being the new indestruct- ible calico books, printed in fast colours on washable lineD. A great demand for these may confidently be expected. The calendars occupy a world to themselves and for beauty of execution and choice of subjects are unparallaled, ranging in I price from a modest copper to a golden coin, all classes of customers may find their wants supplied.
',,-The Tramp Problem.
The Tramp Problem. Civilised society, like most other organisms, has its parasites. Indnstrions and thrifty members of the community are required to support tramps and their progeny and, though mnch httention has been paid to the subject, as yet no means have been found for giving an effective check to the shameless vagrancy which is a scandal to civilisation. Now, however, that the investigation of tho social problem is becoming more systematic, the prospects of a solution of the tramp question being reached are more hopeful than I tbey were few years ago. This is apparent from a report issued by a committee which was appointed recently by the Court of Quarter Sessions for the district, of Lindsey, in Lincolnshire, to enquire into offences against the vagrancy laws. In tho course of their investigations the members of that committee visted the labour colonies which are in operation in Belgium, and, in describing the working' of these institutions and the results which follow, the Lincolnshire committee makes several observations well worthy of note. The object of the B-'l^ian labour colonies is to prevent the manufacture of tramps, to reform those who cm be re- formed, and to compel those mendicants who are physically fit for labour—though incor- rigibly idle when left to their own devices— to work. The labour colonies in Belgium at which social wastrels are received arc live in number -two in Bruges for women, and three near Antwerp for men. In addition to those we know as ordinary vagrants, many criminals are received at the colo iies. This, of coarse, renders classification necessary, and the system adopted seems very successful. Class III., which, we are told, is composed mainly of habitual vagabonds, inebriates and men uuable or unwilling to support themselves, is dealt with ah an institution sitmted at Merxphs. That class is provided with regular employment suited to their capacity. I hey are obliged to work nine hours a day, in return for which they are given board and lodging and a small wage, which is mostly paid in tokens exchangeable for go:;ds at the stores of the colony. A part of the w age is usually retained and placed in the bank to the credit of the colonist, to bo given him when he leaves. One of the main purposes of this treatment is to reclaim the vagrant; and it seems to be fairly successful. But there are many whom it is impossible to raise to the moral level from which they Lave fallen. Many of that class are inetticieut as workmen; and, after losing one job after another, they drift into the vagrant class. For this type of vagrant the labour colonies in operation in Belgium are said to be exceedingly service- able. We are told that in cases in which the effort-to reform the weakling fails his life can bo made profitable to the community and at the same time agreeable to himself. Hence it is suggested that colonies on the Belgian plan might be introduced into this country with advantage. There are cases where the C3 skilllnst through idleness is restored by the discipline to wh!chthctra.npisaub)ecte(!. Our Poor Law system i in urgent need of rtferm. Its chief defect is n lack of the means of classification and oE a I system of registration which would enable those who adnrnister the Poor Laws to distinguish the honest workman—who is the victim of temporary misfortnns— from the confirmed vagrant. Until an effective method of nuking that distinction is found the tramp problem will not be solved.
Rhyl County Court.
Rhyl County Court. THE ELECTRIC LICHT CONTRACT DISPUTE VERDICT FOR THE PLAINTIFFS REVERSED. FRIDAY.—Brfore his Honour Judge Sir Horatio Lloyd i>I:d Mr Registrar George. The Cfarsrront Hydro Lighting Contract. After disposing of & I.1rgd number of judgment BUmmocscs his Honour proceeded to give his decision regarding the points of law raised in the cate of Sheffield v Story, which first came cn for hearing at tho July court. His observations were as follows :— This notion WEB brought to recover f93 5s. ed., balance of the sum of £ 260 13s. Gd claimed by the plaintiff for work dono and iiltiteiiale provielsd by the pluiutifl for the defendant in the installation of clectric light and bell* on the defendant's premises, The work was done. under a contract entered into between the parties. But tho plaintiff, in conse-i quence of circumstances which carno to his knowledge after the work was executed, repudia- ted the contract and sued for work and materials. The plaintiff's original tender for the work, as sent to the defendant, was 9229. The plaintiff alleged that the defendant informed him that oce Lewis Evans had Bent in a tender for £200, and that ho (the plaintiff) was induced by that statement to enter into a contract for 9200. The jury have found that the defendant did represent, and un- truly, to the plaintiff that Lewis Evans had so tendered for JC200, and that the plaintiff was induced thereby to enter into his contract with the defendant and they found a verdict for the plaintiff for jE76 19s. 7d. The defendant then moved for judgment, mn obstante verdicte, on the grounds that it was not competent for the plaintiff to ignore the contract, under which the work had been done and the position of tho parties altered, and that any tuch representation as the jury had found to have been made with reference to Lewis Evans was irrelevant to the iseue. I fixed a subsequent, day for hearing these points argued, and having done so I have now to give my decision upon the questions of law raised. I am of opinion that the action was not properly brought in its present form. If. under the circumstances, uny action was main- tainable, it ehould have been one for daceit. The contract which had been entered into was cxcciitrd, the position of the parties was altered, ar,d it was too late to treat, the contrac,, as a void one. Clarke v. Dickson, Ell. B. and Ell. 148; Urquhart v. McPhcrson, 3 App. Case, 831 Sheffield Co, v. Unwin, LR 20 BD 214, are authorities for this. 10 the event of my taking this view, the plaintiffs counsel asked me to amend by transforming the action into one for deceit. I do net think that I have the power, under the circumstances, to do ro. The application to amend comes after the whole case has been heard, end the verdict of the jury given on the evidence then before them. Different issues would Le raieed. Tho plaintiff loss by reason of the alleged deceit would be the measure of damage, and of this there is no means of judging on the evidence an it stands, and which in the action for work and materials includes the plaintiff* profit prices. If the materials necessary to decide the matter in controversy had been before the court at the hearing there might possi- bly have been ground for the application to amend, but here they were not iu evidence, and a decision might have been arrived at which might have done injuetico to oc, of tho parties. Acting upon the principles laid down by the majority of the court, in Cropper v. Smith, Ch. Dn. 710, I am of opinion that I cannot now amend. Another objec- tion made by the plaintiff to the defendant's motion is that he is stopped from objecting to 'the form of action by having paid money into court. The f6 198 7d paid into court is in respect of cer- tain specific itemil endorsed on the writ, and represents the net difference between the additions to, and the deductions from, the contract and I do net think that the defendant is precluded from objecting to the form of action so far as it relates to the residue of the claim-Ilcrrerell v. Davice (1893), 1 Q.B. 367. The defendant also contends that no amendment would avail the plaintiff, inas- much as the representation found to have been made by the defendant was a mere gratis dictum, which thero was no legal obligation on the oce party to disclose to the other, and on whinh it waa the folly of the other to rely. The case of Vernon V. Keys, 12 East 634, was relied upon for this contention. There the action was based on deceit, and it was hold that an action would not be for the false representation, for it was either a mere false representation of another's intention, or at most a gratis dictim of the one party upon a matter which he was under no legal obligation to dieclose with accuracy, and on which it WAS the folly of tho other to rely. And Lord Ellenborough in the course of his judgment said "Tho fraud must consist in depriving the plaintiff by deceitful means of some benefit which the low entitled him to demand or expect. It appears to be a false representation in a matter merely gratis dictum, in respect of which there was no If gal obligation for precise accuracy, and upon which therefore it was indiscretion to rely, and for the consequences of which reliance no action can be maintained." The reasoning in this case Beems to afford an answer in whatever form the action might have been brought. In matters of tender of this kind the tradesman is surely the best judge of the terms upon which he is prepared to do the work, and in this case the plaintiff in the letter of November 13th, 1903, said 11 We have gone into the matter thoroughly, and cut the prices very fine," &c. Moreover, it is everybody's experience that contracts are some- times taken at a loss. Other motives than mere gain on the particular contract influence those who tender-advertisement-opportnnity of doing work well, so as to incite other business and in a place lvhcro electric light might be on the eve of general introduction, it may well be that the fact that the work was done at an important building would be of benefit in introducing the contractor to other work. The fact, truly or untruly stated to him, that someone else had offered to do the work for less money would be a gratuitous statement, which ho bad no legal right to ascertain, and on which, in the wonlR of t.h3 caBe rderred to, it was "folly to rely." What a contractor haa on which, in the words of the case referred to, to oonsider, and as a man of business would con- sider, would ba Oa what terms would it be to my advantage to do the work?" What any one elan ¡ would do it for is beside the question. I have said this much because I do not wish, by any words of mine, to encourage the plaintiff with auy idea that, another form of action would necessarily be more fortunate. I must enter judgment for the defen- dant. but having regard to the finding of the jury it will bo without costs. The plaintiff will be at liberty to tako the £ 6 19a 7d out of court. I r F J Gamlin appeared for the pl,,tintiff, -i-i(i Mr H P Williams for the defendant. All about Two BicycIcs. Edward Jones Evans, Prestatyn, for whom Mr J csepn Lloyd appeared, sued George Williams, of tho Sussex Street Cycle Stores, Rhyl, for a sum of £5, balance alleged to be due on a bicycle transaction.—Mr F J Gamlin defended. Plaintiff's case was that defendant sold two bicycles for him, one for fS 10s and another for £ 5 5«., also a brake valued at 10s and he had paid on account jE4 10s in respect to the first bicycle, aud f4 in respect to the second, and with an allowance c-f El coriim;esion he had been given credit for f9 10q. Replying to Mr Gamlin, plaintiff stated that he was positive that he did not sell the bicycles outright to defendant for a specific price he aim- ply let him have them on commission. He after- wards found out thdt def ndant had deceived him as to what he got for tho machined. Mr Gamlin said his instruction were that tha bicycles were sold for £ 7 oi aud £ 4 10s respec- tively, and including the allowance of 91 com- mission JE9 108 had been paid on account, leaving 10 a balance of £ 2 5<, which they admitted was owing. Mr Lloyd: This is the first time you have admitted anything, and the case has bean pending for the last three month (laughter). Defendant, in the course of hill evidence, was remindrd by tho Judge of the nature of hia evidence in a case heard at tho last St Asaph County Cour, in which h's sister was the plaintiff. But he maintained that what hs should have said on that occasion was that he bought tho bicycles out and on for £ 7 53 and f4 lO. The purchase of the brake was not a separate transac- tion. The Judge remarked that he could hardly plead confusion at the time, for he was positive that one bioycle was bought on commission, though the amount of the commission was not stated. After examining the correspondence between the parties his Honour gave judgment for pliintitf for JE3 15s, payable by instalments of 5s per month. Anothar Houss Letting Case. A dispute respecting the letting of a furbished house, 15 Abbey Street, formed the subject of the next cafo, the plaintiff being Charles Cooke, a retired grocer and owner of property in Ithyl, and tho defsndants Peter Cameron, of WithiugUn, Manchester, and his wife, Mary Cameron. There was a counter-claim. Mr F J Gamlin appeared for Cooke, and Mr Joseph Lloyd represented the Camerone. At tha outeet Mr Lloyd -remarked that the counter-claim had been eirawn up by defendants and not by himself. He made that observation baeause he found in it an item of £5 for defama- tion of character (laughter). Of course that must go out (more laughter). n Mr Gamlin I know my friend was not respon- sible for drawing up this extraordinary claim I find it attested by a Manchester solicitor. Con- tinuing, be explained that amongst the property owned by plaintiff and at which he had resided was the house 15 Abbey Street. His claim was for rent of furniehod rooms amounting to f20 18s, of which £ 9 4a had been paid on account, and he also sued for certain articles which were misairg from the house and for damage to the furniture, &c, amounting together with the balance of tin rent to jE14 18i 3d. One of the pillows and a cushion for which a claim was made had been returned, which reduced the amount of the claim by 5a. Plaintiff had been in the habit for some years of letting his house to visitors as ordinary furnished premises, but in consequence of the state of his and his wife's health he decided this year to go into the country and let tha whola house. He came into contact with Mr and Mrs Cameron, who desired to take the house from July 20:hto Sapt 20th. In tho course of tho negotiations a discussion cropped up as to whether defendants would be allowed to entertain some of their friends who might he visiting them at Rhyl. Of couise plain- tiff offered not the slightest objection to such a proposal. The house was accordingly lot on the followirig terms :— £ 2 2s per week during July, f2 10s per week during August, and £ 2 2* per week during September. Defendants wero to have the use of four bedrooms, two sitting rooms, a kitchen and a baok kitchen, and they were shown these rooms before they took possession. Plaintiff reserved two rooms fur the storage of his personal effects-one bedroom and a basement sitting room-ond three unfur- nished bedrooms were locked up. Defendants remained in occupation of tho house from July 20 to Sept 20. One of the first things they did on entering into occupation was to hire additional furniture for the empty rooms, which they broke into, and then they issued apartments cards con- taining the following Superior premises, good position.

Intoxicants at the Conservative…
Intoxicants at the Conservative Club. TO TI1K EDITOR OF THE KHVI, JGCUNAT,. SIR,—I WAS very sorry to hear that it had been decided to sell drink in the new Conservative Cliti). Surely some hardly realize what it means. Many of the young men who join will have boc, moinb"r8 of Hands of Hope and Guilds belonging to tlii Church of England nr the Free Churches, ana why should tlioy be needlessly exposed to this temptation ? Young men who would not go ilit 1 public houses will have the drink before them continually—whenever they to this club for reading or for a game of billiards. We have enough of tempta" t-ions already without adding, more especially as regards drinking facilities. It;8 soniettTes arg'iel that it is better to havo drink Ecldin a quiet, re puet ible place than in a public house, where there may bj objectionable company and mrroundin ;s. Many years ago I wal; saying to one who knew how well a certain public hous* was c inducted—no Sunday drinking, m one to have moie than so much, no swearing, no gambling, &e. To my jurpriss ho s;id he believed that public house to have boon the ruin of more young men than any house in the town. Young men, who would notfto to other houses which had not ro good a .chara: ter, went there and leanctl to like the drink, and then they wint to the other houses. How many may le.irn at the Conserva- tive Ciii,) ? If the selling of intoxicants is to pay the club there will be sidly too mull soli for the good of the member" and if it wIll not pay where :s the use of it? Sir Wilfrid Lawson's m tto is a good one Where them's drink there's daog.ir." I hope the committee will re-consider this matter, and not add another to the needless temptations surrounding the y u 1 believe the rale of drink will be injnrinus tJ the club and tj the cause. Evil is wrought by want of thought As well its want of heart." —Yours truly, AN

Rhyl County Court.
occupied the rooms while defendants were in pos session, and altogether they made a nice litt! thing out of the business. Certain information reached plaintiff, and when he returned from Choshiro he was very much surprised to find what libortk'o defendants bed been taking. Defendants bft tho housoRowing Ell 43. Upon looking over tha house after their departure plaintiff found that several articles were missing or hid been broken. Considerable correspondence ensued, according to which Mr Cameron ertdoavoured to evade responsibility by merely posinp" as hia wife's agent in this matter, though he was really the mm at tho wheel. Ia one armtsing letter Mr Cameron said ho did not come to Rhyl to sacrifici; his health—this referred to a counter-cl»im for the dr-iin backing into the parlour-ald he was not, going to be badgered about by the Cookes. Con- tinuing, the writer asked himself what his doctor would think of him for rushing about aj he had been doing. One choice quotation, supposed to be tha doctor's remarks to Mr Cameron himself,was as follows -Cameron, didn't I tell you yonr heart wasjout of positi(,n "-(loud laughter)—"and would take mooths to get right. Yon are a proper fool (roars of laughter). Then, soliloquising, the writer added the words, I should think so (more laughter). In the same letter Mr Cxmeron went on to say that Rhyl was notorious enough at present with the bug case reported in the pipers recently, without another savoury case relating to a night. soil flood, ten to twelve inches in depth, in a house in Abbey Street. Concluding, Mr Gamlin said when Mr Cameron came to him and explained tho nature of his claim, including the item for defamation of character, ho told him he had better get out of his office, which he did (laughter). Mr Lloyd: You did not tell him in that tOllP. (laughter). Plaintiff then gave evidence bearing out his solicitor's observations. Referring to dofendsnts' appropriation of the rooms be had locked up, he said they had got into them by taking the locks ofl the doors. Replying to the Judge, he could not recoileot whether ho showed defendants the rooms he had reserved for himself or not. The articles missing included three sheets, whish he valued at 9-1 3 tablecloths, 53 3d; 9 pieces of a dinner service, W/- and a butter cooler, 1/ he had also claimed 3/6 in respsct to a broken teapot, 1/- fora damaged mortar-board hat, 8/- for another hat, which was rendered useless, and 10/- for putting right a room in which ho found tha woodwoik burnt. 11 My caso is gradually disappearing," remarked Mr Lloyd, to ths merriment of the conrt, when Mr Gumbo, in answer to a question as to when Mr Cameron was drawn into the dippiito, produced a letter written by Mr Cameron in August. After evidence by Mrs Cooke, who said that when showing defendants over the house she dis- tinctly told them which rooms were private, Mr Llovd submitted the cast for the counter- claim. He abandoned the claim of X5 for defama- tion of character, but pressed the claim of £3011. 2d. for the damage oaused by the flooding of tho house. They also resisted the plaintiff's claim as to one week's rent. Reviewing the correspondence, he said the amount of plaintiff's claim had grown vcrv rapidly. It reminded him of the sprite they used to read of in their early da) a which came out of a bottle, and his friend had been acting the part of the sprite very well (laughter). The amount of the claim seemed to have risen from £ 1 Is. 6d. to fl4 18s. 3d. He denied that any of the articles claimed for were missing and pointed out that plaintiff at one time had offered to accept i9 4s. in settlement, less JE1 Is. in respect of the allowance for the flooding of the house. Mrs Cameron then gave evidence and explained that the chim for damages was in respect to the trouble and exponee they had been put to in remov- ing water and matter and in cleaning four lower rooms at the house after flooding on two occasions for re-washing and getting up two weeks' washing, and for damage to various articles of clothing. They also claimed, amongst other things, the return of a pillow, a silver plated teaspoon, and a serviette. She stoutly denied the charges made against them by plaintiff. She admitted the; pillow claimed for by plaintiff was taken in mistake I for the one in respect of which she now made a claim. The burning complained of in one of the rooms was accidentally caused by the servant. When the flooding ocourred they were inches deep, and she complained to Mr and Mra Cooke that it was an abominable place to put them in, especially when Mr Cameron was a delicate man. She main- tained that there was no arrangement whatever about the rooms which plaintiff contended had been reserved. They only entered those rooms when the flooding occurred. Replying to Mr Gamlin, she could not say how many parties she had at the house, nor could she say who opened the doors of the locked-up rooms. Peter Cameron aleo gave evidence, and ultimately his Honour gave judgment for plaintiff for £10 8i, with costs on the claim and coun tor-claim.
