W. Wade Evans, a London Welshman, who was born at Fish- guard, Pembrokshire."—Mr Evans will be recognised as one of the two very successful clerical sons of Capt and Mrs Titus Evans, Ty Rhos, Fishguard Property Sale.—There was a full attend- ance at the Commercial Hotel, on Thursday last, when the freehold estate known as the Cronllwyn, also Penybenlog and Glanduad- fach, were offered by Mr Win. George James, Llysyronen. Men of means, and ten- ant farmers anxious to know the result, pat- iently awaited the sale. Mr James in ofier- ing Cronllwyn pointed out the admirable features of the estate, and its growing value in view of local developements. It was richly wooded and therefore lent itself to sport. The first offer was by Mr Rule Owen at £ 4,000, then Mr Tombs and Mr Rees, Carne, ran it up by steps of :CIOO, to 15,100. At this point the Auctioneer held a consultation with the vendor, and afterwards announced that the estate would be sold. Continuing the s"le Mr James invited offers of 950, but none were forthcoming, and Mr Rees being the last bidder exclaimed li Down with it! a remark which brought the observation from Mr James that such an exclamation was bad for the nerves. However, the lot was knocked down to Mr Rees for 95,100, for Mr E. D. Jones, of Holland Park, London, and a native of Fisbguard. The Cronllwyn estate comprises the farms known as Cronllwyn, Ddolwen, Tyhen, Creiny, and Mount Pleasant, situate in the parish of Fishguard.-Penybenlog and Glanduadfach,Meline parish, were withdrawn. In was noticed that many from Newport and district were among the audience. This pro- perty was started at 94,000, but as only one bid of £] 00 was added, Mr James after a brief consultation announced that this estate would be withdrawn. He also added that in connection with the latter estate there were twelve acres of oak timber, valued at £ 180 which would be added to the price offered. He was prepared to treat privately. The pro- perties in each case were freehold. Market Day aul Motors.-The beautiful weather on Thursday last brought into town a large number of the district community, together with two very elegantly appointed motor-cars which attracted considerable at- tion and admi-.tion. They brought in for the day, Mr and Miss Griffiths, ot Penally, jth/! held the appoin t. ment for sometime, of dairymaid to the late Queen Victoria. Others were bank inspectors. All partook of luncheon at the Commercial Hotel, and afterwards started away via Goodwick, for home. One distinctive feature of the party was their dust-stained appear- ance, it may be said in familiar parlance that they were up to the eyes in road dust, the stuff having collected around their goggles in drifts. Motoring may be exhilarating, but of doubtful joy, judging by outward appearances. 0 Cricket Fixtures.—After its decisive vic- tory over Haverfordwest on Saturday last, the local cricket club is anticipating extreme activity on Thursday, July 14th, the date of the return match with Honey Harfat" on the new Fishguard field.-Next Saturday Fishguard play the Harbour C.C. at Penrhiw, commencing at 3 o'clock. The following have been selected to represent the Harbour Club: —A 0 Robins, A B Edwards, E H Sansome, H Dellar, W Williams, Pat Roche, J Red.! mond, J.

Lewis, Rose Cottage, is; Mr F. Richardson, Cilauwen, f,-r Dr Owen, Brvnymor, ci Mr J. T. Edwards, Posting Stables, 2S 6d; Capt Titus Evans Tyrhos, ios 6d. American Roll-top Desks, 97 10s eacb.- Supply Stores, Fisbguard. A Winner.—In the problem-solving com- petition connected with the Liverpool c. Week- ly Mercury," last week, c. Two cannot quarrel when one will not," Coastguardsman Thomas Marsh, Windy Hall. won a prize of 10* 6d. Shipping.—In consequence of the boister- ous weather which prevailed on Tuesday, the Btixham trawlers fishing in Cardigan bay, numbering about thirty with several other small craft, put into Fishguard Bay for shelter. Tower Hill Chapel.-On Tuesday evening and Wednesday last anniversary services were held at Tower Hill Chapel, when elo- quent discourses were delivered to large con- gregations by the Rev J B Evans, Liverpocl, Rev Peter Hughes Griffiths, London and the Rev W Davies, Treorci. Business.—We would draw the attention of our readers to the advertisement by Mr J. M. Thomas, who has lately opened business as builder, joiner and undertaker. Mr Thomas is well-known to most of the inhabitants of Fishguard, and we have no doubt he will be accorded a share of support. Sports.—Clynderwen sports will be held to-morrow.- See advt. Ruridicanal Chapter.—The following resol- ution of condolence was passed at the meeting of the above chapter held on Thursday last at St Mary's Church. That this chapter places on record its profound regret at the loss which the Church, in the deanery in par- ticular, and the diocese in general, has sus- tained by the death of the late revered Rural Dean, the Rev T G Mortimer, M.A., whose self-denying labours as a parish priest, and grave courtesy, charitable works, generous he and readiness to help with advice and wise counsel to both clergy and Lity, have left an indelible impression upon Church life in the deanery, and humbly desires to express its deep sympathy with Mrs Thomas and family in their sad bereavement." The rssol- ution was proposed and seconded by the two senior clergy in the deanery, viz the Rev Arthur Richardson, St Dogwells, and the Rev T Johns, Manorowen, and sappoà- the Rev J Jones, St Nicholas, Colonel Ly Goodwick, and the Rural Dean.—The Rv ( Johns proposed, and the Rev Arthur RichiJ son seconded a hearty vote of congratulate^ to the Vicar of Fishguard on bis- appoin ment as Rural Dean. This wss suitably, acknowledged by the Rural D'an.—The following were elected representatives of the Deanery for the Diocesan Conference, the Revs I Jones, D Griffiths, Mathry D Jenkyn Evans, Pontvane Colonel" Porter. Mr J Davies, Penfeider and W J Vaugban, Fishguard—The meeting closed with the benediction. Excursion.—The Great Western Railway Compaay advertise, in another column, ex- cursion trips to Clynderwen to-morrow (Fri- day), and to the Royal Show in London on June 20th.

The sad news,l| h arrived on Monday of last week, cast (tich gloom over the school with which tlhl a been associated for nearly live yer Teachers and scholars at once set about prk paring some little tokens to mark then affection for their beloved confrere, and OD Thursday the school was closed. Those attending the obsequies from LIanwnda. were Mr and Mrs E Griffiths, relatives of the deceased, Mrs Phillips, Stop-and-call, Mr H Howell (headmaster), Miss Wood and Miss Roblyn, Mr J Evans, Cargowil, clerk to the School Board Mr Willie Bowen, Tre- sissillt-fach Mr John Phillips, Railway View (where deceased lodged) and the Rev J G James the respected pastor of Rhosy- caerau, of which deceased was a faithful member. These reached Ambleston where every house was in mourning for the fair deceased. The cortege comprised a large number of carnages while many mourners followed on foot walking the whole of the foui miles between Ambleston and Ford. At the house the Vicar ot Ambleston the Rev Jones read a portion of scripture and made a few appreciative remarks. Then the Welsh hymn Mae ngbyfeillion adre'n y 13 myned was sung with touching pathos that brought unbidden tears to the eyes of the assembly. At the grave side the Rev J G James and the Rev Lewis, Woodstock, officiated, these also making a few appropriate observations. The solemn proceedings closed with the hymn Bydd myrdd o rhyfyddodau.' Many were the tearful glances at the narrow bed where lay the loving daughter, the pure, sincere friend never again to part from those she loved and who loved her. But fate ordains that dearest friends must part." Among the floral tokens were, "a tribute of affection from the children whom she taught at Henner School." Attached to this wreath was a card upon which was a verse composed for the children by Mr Howells as follows :— So quick so sudden was her call, Her death surprised us all; i' Tro-day we drop a silent tear, t 4.. In loving memory from her fellow teachers at Henner School." And with the morn those angels faces smile." Much beloved in life deeply lamented at death."—" In loving rememberance from Nellie. Spirit of Purity and Grace, Her weakness pitying see, 0 0 make her heart thy dwelling place And worthier thee.

At the house the Rev Rice Jones, and the Rev J D Symmons officiated, and at Llanwnda church the Rev Rice Jones and the Rev George James. Among those present were Sir Hugh and Lady Owen together with others of the near relatives. Several beautiful floral wreaths were placed on the elegant coffin (made by Mr Arthur Davies) by relatives and neighbours. Trawlers.—Upward of two dozen trawlers take shelter each week-end in the bay. Oa Sunday evening last about twenty of the fishermen attended service at St Peters' church joining heartily in the proceedings. More Improvements.—After a spell of some months the local representatives of the District Council have set men to work on the levelling up of the Parrog end of Wern road which for the greater part of last winter was inundated to the depth of nearly twelve inches of water. The gulley at the end was found tofhave been broken in, presumably, by the heavy traffic. All the old flags have now been removed and replaced by earthenware pipes of good size. These it is hoped will bear the traffic though, obviously, one ten- inch iron pipe, similar to the main drain on the Pier works, would have been preferable Possibly, with the additional twenty-four inches of vaetal now bemg put down to bring 0 the road up to level, the pipes may bear the 11 traffic likely to pass over them. The improve- ment is timely and the representatives earn the colotiaendations of the inhabitants. ^inage.-The G.W.R. Company have commenced the layingof Pipes,froua the main on the works, along the Quay road the widen- ing of which is to be proceeded with immedi- ately* puilding.—-Carting of materials for the buil mg 0 ouses on Pencoo commenced this week. There are now appearances that the long talked of building of houses is with- in range starting. Of course, it is hordly expected that the new dwellings will y available for the general public, but if the tfompany provide houses for the employees, jelief for the present scarcity of houses I be provided. At present the supply of suitable dwellings is totally inadequate for the demands, thus rents rule comparatively high. The Company's houses will provide a long felt want.-Mr D Courcy Beamish has arranged for the commencement of his man- sion on Driln laud. Mr W Calway, of Gloucester, is the contractor and a start is expected to be made early in July.—Six cottages have to be erected as the first of the several hundred that have long been in con- templation. The wall., are to be of concrete similar to those of the house just vacated by the Byrne family. There will be no fear of dampness, which is a blessing. Break Down.- Motor-cars are becoming more numerous even on the rough and rocky roads of Pembrokeshire. But one of the chief evils of the motor-car is its general tenoency to go wrong just at the most importune moment. On Saturday last the fine < ar belonging to Mr Beamish went out of ord -.v when near the Good wick bridge after running all the way from North Wales. It seems that one of the water tubes of the steam boiler gave out aud as no motor engiueer was at hand the motor, after taking a rest in the coal-yard on the corner of the moor, was placed in tbe G.W.R. cart shed on the Duffryn road to await repairs. Motors, so far, are not, by any means, the unmixed bless- ing they are supposed to be. What is really required for the present ding dung age. is a car that will run at any rate of speed without throbbing its backbone out. or coughing its lungs to pieces so to speak motoring will then prove as exhilarating as a switch- back railway ride, aud a joy to the end of the chapter. Until then their sulphurous vapour must raise such and so continue obnoxious. Coaling.-Ou Thursday Mr Hughes, coal facbor, supplied the s s. I- Mabel (Capt Williams) belonging to Mr 0 Evans, of Car- narvon, with bunkers. Singular to state the vessel ha.d a cargo of coal, but was unable to raise sufficient steam to proceed until she had a supply from Mr Hughes. Pier Works.—The night and day shifts of men who are engaged by Messrs Howell and C, McGrhan in laying the concrete blocks are making capital headway.—On Saturday evening last Mr and Mrs Byrne and family lft Goodwick for Wexford, Ireland, where '\ey intend residing. Mr E H Sansome, who >eted the stone crusher, has taken up the eiintment of works' foreman in the place byrne. I aUiary.—We have to record the demise t jher young woman which took place on A °J ^cncv,rrn" The deceased, Martha .n!1r *i3, who was only 19, and daughter 0 1 r a Mrs VV Lewis, came home about three Wet: ago from Cardiff, since which '3 Z5 time she gr^uaiiy grew weafcer au £ j pasae(j aWoyw B t' fr0m g6neral decliue- fi « l-Apointment.—^The directors of Q Great »ft<rn Railway Company have appointed Nlr 'ioinas Heniy Rendell, chief assistant to tha Qea8ral M; to the pos. ion of Chic *;00t}s Manager to the Com- pany, in succession^ Mr L W Maiden, who is retiring from the Nrv"-ce. Strauded.-A fine Sal was left by the tide °f p" if8* a V6r^ ^aUSal circumstance at Goodwick. The Love of Animals^—Whatever may have been the offect 0f a paragrapll in thfa column last week on cruelty to animals, and pointiug to the fliDgiog away of a kitten which was afterwards picked up, the follow- ing will show that even in the sordid east- end of London, where much squalor and cruelty exists, the feline tribe meets with some kindness at the hands of those generally considered inhumane. On Saturday last the vicar of St Paul's, Haggerston, the Rev A H Littlewood, inaugurated a cat show fI the parish schools, the aim being to inculcate a love of animals in the young. There were fifty entries-all of the common variety prizes being offered for-the best cared-for cat, the most extraordinary cat, the happiest cat, the best cat, the beat performing cat, the funniest cat. The happiest competitor was described as a good sleeper aaionz other cAwiivu-u '1"U.¡" -ito Luorii, exrrttor- dinary animal had six toe,3. Another cat and four kittens had been rescued from an empty house and brought up by the kind-hearted exhibitor. The above might well form a suggestion worthy of local adoption. There is room for such means of fostering, in both young and adult, kindly regard for animals. L Success.-It will be of interest to the rela- ives and friends of Mr J. S. Lewis, of Tylors- town, Rhondda Valley, son of Mr W Lewis (foreman mason at D. Davies & Sons, Ltd.), formerly of Goodwick, to learn that he has gained colliery manager's certificate of the first class. Mr Lewis receives congratulations on his achievement and best wishes for his continued success from his manv frip-nil.. incidents.—An occasional corresrond«nf writes -« Dear Sir —I depict t00k pla;e aot tw/n»; ;™ rreffgarne on a recent Sabbath morn, and now I have another concerning myself. I have taken to cycling lately on a jigger I bought second-hand. It seemed to be sound in the wind, limb and steering parts but the hist and last named have not came up to the guarantee certificate, the steering especially. aecoad tnal I had with the bone-shaker gave me a lot of trouble.

As to the steering* gear, well, the machine has an unfor- tunate habit of running into telegraph posts, as though it objected to them. But the worst part of this is, the concussion usually pitches me over the handle bar on to the road, lwo spoilt suits, numerous bruises, several yards of sticking-plaster, and a stiff shoulder, to say nothiny of the moral injury sustained, only touch the fringe of a costly speculation.

HAVERFORDWEST WOOL FAIR.
HAVERFORDWEST WOOL FAIR. The June wool fair at Haverfordwest on Tuesday was an excellent one from the sellers' EtJJ 1 iVieW' Early in the morning wool fetched g2d per lb., with a tendency to rise. Last year's prices were 7d., and in some cases 8d., and the year before 6d was a fair average. The buyers were the makers of Welsh flannel at Newcastle- P-Lulyu, Cardigan, and Carmarthen.

CRICKET.
CRICKET. FISHGUARD v. HAVERFORDWEST. VICTORY FOR FISHGUARD. In the most propitious of cricketting weather Fishguard Cricket Club journeyed to Haverfordwest on Saturday last to open the first match of the season and that, too, with the County town's noted team. Those who took advantage of the drive enjoyed an exceedingly pleasant outing with jovial com- pany enlivened by the ready wit and jocundity of Mr 0 D Jones, headmaster of the British School. For Fisbguard the result was a substantial victory by 40 runs. Winning the toss Fishguard decided to go in first, the batting opening by the Rev W Evans, and Mr A 0 Robins who created something of a record for the County by totalling 62 before the first wicket fell. Such an unusually big lead raised hopes in the visitors' that the result would weigh in their favour that their aspirations were well-founded is shown by the splendid result. It cannot be denied that Fishguaid determined, with Mr Robins' able assistance, to make the most of its opor. tunities. The first I over was productive of no less than fifteen runs, Robins ten and the Vicar five. Robins' splendid off drives and severe hitting worried the bowlers consider- able and won the hearty plaudits of the spectators. One of the smartest hits of the afternoon however, was by Howard Owen who drove the ball far enough to gain six runs. Mr Watson, of Goodwick, strength- ened the visitors' score by 14 runs, while his styie ot bowling created much favourable comment, though, for effective work in this direction J J Morris shewed the way in a marked manner. Robins' score comprised two 4's, four 3's, and ten 2's. Fisbguard scored exactly a century for all out." The homesters commenced batting-having but an hour in which to stave off defeat —against the steady bowling of Morris and Robins, the former putting out two of the most reliable of their opponents in his second over'—a very clever bid of play calculated to upset the equanimity of the Harfat batsmen, who were easily accounted for with a total Ot nnljr si-rfcjr- runs to tkoli- -="1..1. 2?^ laoL. wicket fell one minute of drawing stumps thus completing the victory. Morris' analysis was 6 for 23, and Robins 2 for 25 Fishguard won by 40 runs. Too much praise cannot be given to C J Howells for the very satisfactory manner he kept wicket for his side. For Haverfordwest, W Hammond was the most conspicuous both in bowling and batting. After the match the visitors were hospitably entertained in the pavillion by Haverfordwest.

Hier, b Morris 1 Extras 12 Total 60 Respecting the above match a bpectator writes:—" I was rather surprised at the tactics of some of the Haverfordwest cricket team on Saturday last. When it was seen that defeat was inevitable one member wished to intro- duce at the last moment a youthful batsman who had simply been a spectator of the match. This was, of course, objected to by Fishguard; then a question of time arose, one umpire intimating" final over" several minutes before time limit, apparently in order to ward off defeat. The umpire, who had seen the match from the start, however, gave it that three or four minutes were yet available. During these last few minutes the remaining wickets fell, and so brought sub- stantial, and, I might say, indisputable vic- tory for Fishguard, who fully merit their win by superior form throughout. The very name .1 Cricketter IS universally recognised as a sine qua non to fair play, but Haver- fordwest on Saturday last, to put the matter mildly, accepted defeat with ill-concealed aversion. It was ever thus with pettifogging old towns whose star is fast waning. Fish- guard* team must prepare 11 to repeat their vic- tory at the return match."
GLANRflYD.
GLANRflYD. Obituary. It is with deep regret that we record the death of Miss Lizzie E Edwards, Trewenfron, Nevern, at the early age of 18. The sad event took place on Tuesday, the 7th inst, and although it was not wholly unex- pected the news cast quite a gloom over the whole neighbourhood. The deceased, who was deeply interested in religious matters, had set her heart on devoting her life to mis- sionary work, and -no doubt, had death not intervened, her fondest wish would soon have been gratified. At the Sunday School ex- aminations of the Methodist Connexion she always acquitted herself with honour, and some of the best prizes had been gained by her. The funeral, which took place at Glan- rhyd last Saturday, was attended by a large concourse of people. The coffin, covered with floral tributes, was carried from the house to the graveyard by bearers who were only too willing to perform this last act to show their respect to the dead. The ministers who officiated were the Revs D. Morgan, St Dog- mells; T. Lamb, Tredryssi, and S. G. Bowen, Penuel. On all hands much sympathy is felt for the family at Trewenfron in their sad bereavement. -=-
