Llandudno Advertiser and List of Visitors

a MIDNIGHT SCENE AT CRAIGYDON. About threei o'clock on Friday morning Mr .Savourey, of Carmen Sylva Road, wa,s awaken- ed by Mr Edward Horner and informed that someone had obtained admittance to a, house belonging to. him in the, same thoroughfare, in which were sleeping a visitor from Bir- mingham and. her child. It seems that the lady heard someone moving in the, bottom part of the house, but was afraid to leave the place because of the, sleeping child. After a time .she managed to attract the attei-itaon of Mr Horner, and a man was found asleep on the floor of one of the lower rooms. Tlhe man, who had the, appearance of a tramp, was taken to the Police Station by a constable. Later in the day the man, who proved to be an Irishman from Dublin, was brfcugM up be- fore Messrs J. Adey Wells and Wm. Bevan, ,and charged with drunkenness, and sent, to prison for fourteen days. It seems that the man entered the house' when drunk and alomst immediately went, to sleep.

LLANDUDNO REGATTA. (Special to the "Advertiser.") Yachting in general, and yacht racing in par- ticular, are not5 and never can be, popular, in the sense that horsel racing, cricket, football, and many other sports and pastimes are, popular, but the endeavour of the few en- thusiasts at Llandudno to regain in Llandudno what was lost twenty-five years ago, the name of the best regattas on the coast, deserves every commendation. Thanks to the prevailin.g atmospherical condiitons at the tirmel of racing, the two main events, best witnessed at the pier end, but easily followed from any portion of the promenade, were sailed in a topsail breeze, and capital races resulted in ijoth events. During the twenty-five, years which have in- tervened since our last regatta of any im- portance, the measurement rules of yachts in handicapping have undergone fundamental alteration on at least three occasions, and new rules have come into force. Thirty years ago racing yachts were started from an anchor, with all their sails down, and it was a very diffilcult business, especially if there was any weight of wind, to set tpe canvas of 100 ton cutters in those days. In xaot, with much wind the mainsail could never be got to set. all day. Nowadays with perifectly cut sails and with wire gear and rigging, instead of hemp, a sail- ing masters' difficulties in respect to setting his canvas are much diminished. A racing yacht is a marvellous product of the human brain; but, like' all such products;, im- 'p.edeClt,; and its imperfections can be reduced: to the lowest possible minimum only by the anxious care, study and experience, of these wiho have to sail her. Ships are very human, and rather feminine; they act like, intel'ligent but slightly unreasoning creatures. They do all sorts of odd. things, and not not seem to know themselves why they do them, and it is very difficult to find; cut. It is -this uncertainty which is in a <rreat measure their charm. Then again the. rules of the road at sea are, very different to say motor car racing, but the interest ataohing to a yacht, race is so obvious to the initiated, so incomprehensible to those igrtorant of the sport, that any attempt at de- scription is labour lost, in fact it seems but a dull affair to those who do not understand the game. Skill in handling a racing yacht on the sea is a more important factor in determining victory than skill in riding a race horse on the turf; and the element of chance plays a most important part, especially in ligtht sum- mer weather. Yet to all, whether instructed or not, the, sea, if it appeals to them at all, exercises a fascina- tion which cannot be described. Yachtsmen are generally enthusiastic lovers of their favourite pastime, and nia! wonder, for in all its phases it conveys infinite delight and infinite charm. One facit is certain, this resuscitation of yacht racing in Llandudno must, if kept up from year to yeiar, be of immense benefit to Llandudno. Mr C. Wynn Griffiths, of the Royal Welsh Yacht Club, who acted in the capacity of time- keeper, says in a letter he has written to pne of the officials, and his experience extends back at least thirty years:—"I think the Llan- dudno Regatta was a brilliant success, and next year, if it can be arranged in the Regatta week, it, will be a very ibig affair." This opinion, coming from the source which it does, will be most encouraging for the arrangers of next year's event, and good as this year's regatta has been, the motto for the future should, and will be, if I know anything of the local enthusiasts, "Excelsior."

NATURE JOTTINGS. JULY 27.-After having spent some hours at the respective abodes of our local limestone flora, I, for the purpose, of briefly enumerating the various species observed within a limited area, reclined annidst the yelLlow rockroses and sweet-smelling wild thyme, which at that spot cover the whin-studded sward. First to take the eye was the white hore- hound-a plant whose medicinal "properties" is held it much in esteem. With it was the com- mon calamint. I take it that the word "com- mlon," prefixed to the names of many plants, regulates the fact that they are of common dis- tribution, and that it in no wise implies that they are devoid in the least degree of any in- terest or refinement; indeed in this instance, the Grecian equivalent for the affix "kalos— cala" is, I. understand, "beautiful"—the Beau- tiful Mint. The ground in one place iis strewn with the crimson geranium, whose truly handsome blood-red blossoms readily gains the favour of the most casual of wild flower lovers. Its pro- fusion ion the Great Orme is commented upon by one of the most able of botanists. Yet another limestone-loving character—the drop- wort. How the, creamy clusters of bltooni re minds one of its near relative the meadow- sweet, which, by-the-way, is not exclusively a feature of the. meadow-lands, for you may see it in all its charm on the verge of those most awesome cliffs near the lighthouse. Quite out of reach up on the rock-shelve,s, where the beautiful mauve-petalled scabious seems to have very firmly established itself, can be noted some fully-flowered examples of the wood sage, which conjecturing from its name, one might believe was a woodland re- cluse. The wild madder, too, is there, and as usual has twinned itself around a supporting bush, this time it is bramble. It would appear that this plant "attains at Llandudno its northern limit in our islands." In a 'large, crevice in the rock I found the parasitical broormrlape growing upon the stems of its "host," the ivy, and not afar off were the pinky flowers of the greater willow herb. To catalogue all the botanical forms, which I noticed within this particular area, would entail toio- long a list; the foregoing being an attempt to record the more conspicuous and attractive species.

PJIR PAVILION CONCERTS. MR. E. R. JOACHIM (COMPOSER). On Friday last a Suite De Ballet, conducted by the composer, Mr E. R. Joachim, entitled "Dretzka," was performed by the orchestra, for which a very hearty encore was forthcoming. The ballet is divided into three parte: 1, In- troduction and Pas Seul; 2, Mazourka Russe; 3, Transformation and Finale., this latter show- ing, in our opinion, far and away the better work, and calculated to' raise the audience, as it did on this occasion to a high pitch of enthusiasm. The Ballet as a whole is well written and bright, and gives promise of even greater work from the pen of Mr Joachim at; we hope, no distant date. TWELFTH SPECIAL CONCERT. It has been found necessary by the manage- ment to print on their programmes for the evening concerts a special notice to the effect that, "Owing to the persistent demands for encores it may be. necessary to omit one or more items in order to finish in reasonable time." We have long seen it would have to come to this. and Saturday last was a fair criterion of what has been the rule of late, just one-half of the items set dQlWR being encored. AUGMENTED ORCHESTRA (40 PER- FORMER). The orchestra was at its full strength for the first time this season on Saturday last. The ,opening item, Svendsen's overture, Oarnaval in Plaris," gave the late comers a chance of finding seats, which were at this hour very limited, despit.e, the fact that tke front seats were increased by several rows, and long be- fOTE" the second item was played through the legend, "Standing room only, was prominent- ly displayed to the gaze of the ever-increasing outside crowd. MADAME EFFIE THOMAS. Madame Thomas was accorded a hearty wel- come, and sang in her very best vein Ven- zando's grand seen,a, "Ah S che Assorta." and for an encore "I know a lovely garden. bchubert s new song, "The Shepherd on the Rock." given for the first time in Llandudno, was the second song set down to her name, and again this brilliant songstress gained the popular verdict. Madame Thomas's stay amongst, us terminated on Monday, when she sang Thomas' "I am Titania" and Arditi's "II Bacio. W e must not omit to mention her rendition on Sunday evening of Bach-Gounod's 'Ave Maria and Costa's "I will extol Thee," for both of which she. had perforce to return ana bow her acknowledgements, the first time to our knowledge, that a lady vocalist has been accorded such an ovation on a Sunday evening, Mr Herbert Brown, we might mention, on one occasion, was compelled to give an encore despite the prohibition clause. MR. ARTHUR PAYNE Mr Payne could have been forgiven had he omitted a portion of his vli-olin solo at the twelfth special concert. Mendelssohn's "Andante, and Finale from Concerto in E Minor" is always a big undertaking for a violin soloist at any time, but to play it under the atmospherical conditions prevailing on this occasion, the therometer registering any thing up to 100, is worthy of special praise, and much ■as we should have liked to have heard a repeat performance, or an encore item, we con- siderately refrained from, joining in with those who were clamouring for more, and Mr Payne contented himself by bowing his acknowledge- ments. MADAME ADA CROSSLEY. There is only one Madame Ada Crossley, and the greeting meted out to her was sufficient proof to the uninitiated the high esteem in which she is held by the poncert^going public. Giordani's aria, "Caro mio ben," which was most impressively rendered, was followed by "Caller Herrin' and her second song, Bruce Steane's "I heard the voice of Jesus Say," accompanied by the composer, by "Rocked'in the Cradle of the Deep," in which the lower register of her beautiful voice was heard to the best possible advantage. It was undoubtedly the item of the evening's proigramme, and the audience were very loth to let her go, without a further encore; but the hour was late,, an omission had already been enforced to enahle visitors, froan neighbouring towns, who number a goodly crowd every Saturday evening, to catch their trains. DURING THE WEEK. ffi From such an orchestra as Mr Payne's, there is a wealth of soloists to be found, and this week we have had soli from Mr J. E. Hamble- ton, 'cello, and a very meritorious rendition of Poppers "Tarantella" is to be chronicled to his credit; Mr John Lawson's violin, Vieux- temps' Concerto "N,o. I," Adagio and Rondo, another item showing brilliant technique; Mr EL Jarvis' harp, Thomas' "Pensive and Joyous"; Mr S. F. Midgeley's basoon: God- frey's "Lucy Long," and Mr George Atkinson's ■pianoforte. In every instance encores were de- manded and given. MISS EMILY FOXCROFT. It is five ve,arssince Miss Poxcroft was heard at the pier concerts. Judging from the encores which she has been nightly scoring she has lost none of her popularity. Possessing a well trained and pleasing contralto voice she sings in finished style such songs as Teresa Del Reigo's "Where love has been," "Happy Song"; Bale's "The Green Trees Whispered" Nevin's "The Rosary"; White's "The Spring has come," "When Twilight oomes," "We'd bide a wee," etc., etc. < MATINEE CONCERT. Before a somewhat smlall but enthusiastic audience, on Thursday afternoon last, Mr John Harrison, tenor, and Mr Charles Knowles, bass- baritone, opened the, programme with Sar- geant's duett, "Watchman, what of the night," and gained a, fine reception. » MR. ELI HUDSON. FLUTE AND PICCOLO SOLOIST. This famous flautist was heard in three items, apart from the encores which were awarded his efforts: Paggi's "Fantasia Bril- liante" and two of his own compositions, "The Electric Polka" and "Fantasia on Welsh Airs." Mr Hudson is not unknown to Llandudno audiences, and he must have been gratified at the reception which greeted his efforts. His playing throughout was simply magnificent. MISS GWLADYS ROBERTS. This contralto made a big hit in, both her songs, "The Enchantress" and "My dearest heart," and thoroughly deserved the "very un- animous encores. It is five years since Miss Roberts was heard at Llandudno. The ad- vances she has made in her profession are most marked. She is a big favourite at Leeds, Bradford and Cardiff Festivals. MR. JOHN HARRISON. "Deeper and deeper still," Waft ye Angels," Handel's recit and air (from Jeptha) was Mr Harrison's contribution as a soloist, and for a prolonged demand or an encore he sang a most charming song. His rendition of "0 flower of all the World" was equally enjoyed, and he had again to comply with the demands. Mr Harrison will retain pleasant memories of this. his first visit to Llandudno. MADAME ELEANOR JONES-HUDSON. Madame Hudson's song, "Vilanelle," with flute, obligate, was a marvellous piece of vocalisation, and again in "Margery Green" she was heard to good effect. Madame Hudson visited Llandudno some two seasons ago with Mr Ben Da vies. MR. CHARLES KNOWLES. Mr Knowles in his first visit to Llandudno made than a passing impression in his first song, Emanuel's "The Desert," and had to respond with an encore. His rendition of the "Shako" was a fine performance. OTHER ITEMS. Amongst other items were a duett by Miss Roberts and Mr Harrison, "It is na, Jean," most artistically sung. Pianoforte solo, "Waltz in E," by Miss Carrie Lumbers, who through- out acted as accompanist, in a sympathetic man- ner. The quartefs of Lane "Wilson's (from Flora's Holiday) included "Come all ye lads and lasses," "Gentle Dawn," "The Pedlar." and "The Country Dance." Where all were so finely rendered it wlould be difficult to pick and choose, all would bear many repeti- tions. < The concert was most enjoyable throughout, and we could have wished the pavilion had been packed; such a fine concert party has never previously visited Llandudno, and we congratulate Mr Lloyd Jones, the popular manager, on the fine programme he provided, and the alround excellence of the artistes he has secured for his tour in Wales. THIRTEENTH GRAND SPECIAL. Miss Esther Palliser, soprano, and Mr Henry Turnpenny, tenor, are the vocalists engaged for to-night's special concert, and we again advise our readers to n-iial-e a point of attending in good time if they wish to secure seats. MR. SAMUEL HUGHES. PIER SECRETARY. In another columns will be found a list of subscribers to the "Samuel Hughes Testi- monial," which now amounts to close upon £70.. Mr Hughes will, this September, complete twenty-one years of service as secre- tary to the Pier Company, and the suggestion, amongst a few friends, that it would be a fitting time to recognise his long years of faith- full service and never failing courtesy to all, has been so warmly taken up that from a pri- vate testimonial, as at first intended, it has daily grown. in pCipularity with all classes to such an extent, as to warrant the committed of management, Messrs Arthur W. Payne., John Roberts and Frank Edge (hon. sec.) in making it as public as possible. For further details we refer our readers to te list published in another column of this issue.

The Company have now arranged with the, railway company for such passengers to re-turn by train at a small additional charge upon giving up their return half-ticket at the railway booking office. The "La Marguerite" arrived at Llandudno on Sunday with a full complement of passengers, and another boa.t had to follow with those she could not accom- modate.

people, and still proves a great attraction whenever it is exhibited. The annual exhibd- tien of the Cambrian Academy of Art is also open at Plas Mawr, Conway, and is certainly well worthy .1 a visit, for it contains the work of most of the leading artistes who make their home in Wales. THE HAPPY *VALLEY MINSTRELS. By far the oldest of the outdoor entertain- snenits is the minstretl performance in the Happy Valley..Mir W. J. Churchill, who this year secured the lease of the; minstrel plot, has been very unfortunate as regards the weather. Last seiajson the afternoon performances were only stopped by rain on tWOI afternoons, but this year in some, weeks the exception was to .get a fine day. A good Bank Holiday week, with the additional privilege of three evening penflarmances, will no doubt go a long way to- wards making good the- loss.. The entertain- ments are bright from. srtJrurt to finish, and, quite up to if not superior to the standard set up by former proprietors. Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the days on which evening per- formances are given. THE SCARLET MERRIONS. This talented company of vaudeville enter- tainers gives performances three times daily at Foulkeis' Cave, Tygwyn Road. The pilot has been comfortably arranged and provided with ample acootmtmodlatKm. It is sheltered from the winds, and forms an ideal spot on which to give an al fresco concert. One and all the artistes are excellent, and keep the fun m-lov- ing briskly for two hours. In short, they are 'Merry 'urns," and make others merry too1. < < THE HAPPY WHITE COONS. Given a fine day, not too hot or too windy, the Summit of the Orme is just the right place to wile away a few hours. The attractions of bracing air and magnificent panorama of views are added to by a company of comedians, who have dubbed themselves "The Happy White Coons," who perform on the plateau daily (weather permitting). In the evening the same < company appear in, the Egyptian Hall, Happy Valley Road. FOUR-IN-HAND COACH TOURS. Notwithstanding the number of counter at- tractions here is apparently no falling off in the number of visitors who take, advantage of the (numerous tours arranged by the Llandudno Coaching and Carriage Company, the largest and best equipped company of its kind in the. Principality. No better means could be de- vised for seeing the country than these hand- some coaches, drawn by forur smart stepping horses. The list of tours' is a lenghy one, full particulars of each being given in the hand- book issued by the. company, which may be obtained on application at the offices,, Queen's Hotel Gardens. » ENJOYABLE STEAMER TRIPS. As usual the Liverpool and North Wales iSteamship Company have made arrangements for an extremely varied number of excursions iby sea,, the list including trips to Menai Bridge, Beaumaris, Carnarvon, Blackpool, Douglas, Rhyl, Round Anglesey, etc., etc. In order to cope with the demand on their comfortable and cfomimiodiouis vessels, the company last week placed into commission a smaller steamer, the "St. Elian," which will be utilised for shore sea trips to Rhyl, Oolwyn Bay, etc. A full list of the regular and speeial sailing may be obtained from Mr Arthur Parton, the Com- pany's North Wales agent, at the Pier Gates. < MOTOR TOURS THROUGH NORTH WALES. Notwithstanding the, decision of the Council not to grant licenoelsi toi motor charabancs to ply for hire, visitors may, by journeying to Deganwy or Llandudno Junction yet, enjoy the motor tours through Wales, arranged by the Llandudno Motor and Garage Co., Ltd. The tours include Bettwsycoed, Snowdon Loop, Llanrwst, etc., and also a new one to Llianr dudno visitors, i.e., through Colwyn Bay, Aber- gele, Denbigh, Ruthin to Corwen and home via Cerrigydruidifcn, PentTevo-elias and Bettwsyeoed. This loop embraces the loveliest scenery in Waleis. Further particulars may be obtained at the Booking Office, next to the General Post Office. THE GREAT ORME TRAMWAY. In so far as lolcomotibn on a line of metals is concerned, the Great Orme, Train remains Llandudn'o's latest attractions. As such it is becoming increasingly popular with visitors,, many of whom miabe frequent journeys to the Summit. The tramis run every few minutes from the, Victoria Station, Church Walks. The views to be obtai-ned en route' are magnificent and varied, and golfers will find this a con- venient means of reaching the Great Orme Golf Links. PASTIMES. Golfing visitors are liberally catered by the two local clubs, for handicaps have been arranged by both the North Wales and Great Orme Goilf Clulbs. The links are easily accessible from all parts of the town, and are in excellent condition. On the. Cricket Field matches will be played by the Llandudno Club against Rhuddlan on Saturday and Manchester Y.M.C.A. Admission to. these matches is free, and afternoon tea may be, obtained on the ground. There is also a full-sized bowling ,grro&en on the slame ground and excellent tennis courts, particulars of the charges for which may be obtained from the groundsman.
