The Rector of Tenby, who is attending the Church Congress at Swansea, will be absent from the parish for a month. The BELGRAVE HOTEL, Esplanade, Tenby, is now open with every convenience and accom- modation for visitors. Mr Ted Mason, writing from near Calgary, Canada, concludes his letter with the remark— "Canada is booming; better luck to you sleepers in Tenby." Mr George Chiles, wine and spirit merchant, High Street, Tenby, will, until further notice, close his place of business at eight o'clock each evening. The Tenby County School Governors have decided to discontinue the- evening art class which has been held at the school for some years past. The Great Western Railway Company, as will be seen from their advertisement in another column, announce special excursions to Swan- sea, Cardiff, and the north next week. --++- A receiving order in bankruptcy has been made against Mr Thomas Morris," formerly in charge of Penally railway station, but now em- ployed as a signalman at Whitland. m A special service will be held at the Presby- terian Church next Sunday, when the offerings will he taken for the Tenby Cottage Hospital.

KM Eastbourne has secured the Duke of Devon- shire for her Mayor during the forthcoming municipal year, but the Tenby Town Council on Monday last refused to discuss the idea of in- viting a gentleman of position to occupy her civic chair. m- The winter session of the Tenby Choral Society, under the conductorship of Mr Richard Williams, L.RA..M., will commence next Thursday evening, full particulars respecting which can be obtained from the hon. secretary, Mr J. S. Brown, Victoria Street, Tenby. The Saundersfoot and Tenby Company of Garrison Artillery (Territorial Force) has dur- ing the past week enrolled another recruit, and now only requires one man to bring it up to full strength. The Company, it may be men- tioned, will shortly be supplied with rifles. At the Central Hall, Tenby, next Wednesday afternoon, Mr Joseph Stower, of Chancery Lane, London, will offer for sale by public auction the Rock Houses, and the Wheatsheaf, Tenby, also a cottage residence situated at Manorbier. Particulars of the sale will be found in our advertisement columns. One of the most favourite drinks in Pem- brokeshire is the Dry Ginger Ale produced by Mr Councillor George Thomas at his Haver- fordwest Mineral Water Factory, the water used being from Higgon's Well, celebrated for its purity. Dry Ginger Ale is a treat, but a little Scotch whisky does it no harm. "Milford Haven is admirably situated as a port of arrival and departure for ocean steamers, containing as it does a larger water area than all the other British ports put together. American mails would arrive in London a day sooner if they were delivered at Milford Haven instead of being taken to Liverpool. The gold-freighted ships, the Australian, Cape, and American steamers could use this port."—Cardiff Times, October 1st, 1859. I On Tuesday evening the staff of Messrs. George Ace Limited, motor engineers, Tenby, presented to their popular works foreman, Mr H. S. Walker, a solid silver cigarette case, as an appreciation of the excellent manner in which he carried out his duties as steward of the recent successful annual outing held at Manchester. In the unavoidable absence of Mr Gebrge Ace, the presentation was made by Mr Walter R. Lintern, secretary to the com- pany. With reference to the paragraph in Thurs- day's issue of the South J Vales Daily News to the effect that to Hubberstone belongs the distinction of having the first lady councillor, Mr David Fisher, postmaster, Narberth, writes :—" My sister, Miss Fisher (now Mrs Thomas), of Daventry, was really the first lady parish councillor in the county of Pembroke, and also in the whole of Wales. She was chosen as a lady parish councillor at Narberth in the year 1894, at the time of the passing of the Act." ♦♦♦ Referring to the recent infectious disease case at Tenby, the Medical Officer Journal in its last issue says:—"The Medical Officer of Health of Tenby is to be congratulated upon having secured the conviction of a parent who allowed a child to go about the town while infected with scarlet fever. The justices are also deserving of commendation for having realised the serious nature of the offence and for imposing a penalty of JS10. The defence raised was that in the opinion of the child's mother and of its nurse it was not suffering from scarlet fever, although the medical man in attendance had specifically told them that it was. The readiness with which some individuals set up their own un- trained opinion against that of a trained and qualified expert would be humorous if it were not that it so often has its tragic side. The child at Tenby had probably become infected because someone had been careless and, maybe, had disobeyed explicit directions. The care- lessness and indifference to consequences were continued until happily the careless and in- different parent fuund himself in the police court. We should like to think that the same vigilance in connection with infectious cases was displayed elsewhere as has been shown by the sanitary officials of Teuby." At the recent Haverfordwest Dog Show Miss Agues Griffith was successful in carrying off two firsts, one third, and a special with Champion Ken;" 1st and 2nd with "Pekin Ping;" and reserve and v.h.c. with "Lamphey Mist." The Local Government have been applied to by the Haverfordwest Town Council for per- mission to borrow B2650 for the purpose of erecting fourteen workmen's dwellings at Pren- dergast. A White Funnel boat, whilst returning from Ilfracombe on Tuesday, got into some wreckage just off Lynmouth, three floats of one of the paddle-wheels being broken. This necessitates her laying up, and therefore the trips adver- tised to Ilfracombe and Bristol on Wednesday were of necessity cancelled. Mr Lindsay Johnson, the well-known oph- thalmic surgeon, of Cavendish Square, London, has now employed the ophthalmoscope upon a thousand animals of different kinds — lions, tigers, reptiles, cats, and birds. Assisted by Mr A. W. Head, artist, and brother to Mr E. J. Head, of Tenby, he has completed over 400 drawings of animals' eyes, in addition to a large number of photographs. At a special sitting of the Tenby Police Court on Tuesday, Albert Wilson was brought up in custody on the charge of being, on his own confession, a deserter from the Royal Welsh Fusiliers depot at Wrexham, and re- manded until yesterday (Wednesday) morning, when on the application of Police Sergeant Thomas he was detained in custody pending the arrival of an escort from Wrexham. The many friends of Chief and Battery Officer Mauger, R.N., will regret to hear of his early removal from Tenby, yet at the same time offer him their congratulations on his appointment to Orford Haven, Suffolk. During the period Mr Mauger has been located at Tenby he has made himself extremely popular with all classes, and his removal from the town will be regretted by a large circle. m-i Mr George Ace, who is motoring on his Silent Knight Daimler Phaeton to attend the Flying Week, leaving Tenby on 16th inst., returning from Blackpool on 23rd inst., has a seat to offer any local gentleman who is agreeable to pay half the road running ex- penses (except tyres) of the car for nine days. If^application is made in time, Mr Ace might be able to secure the passenger a single room at the Club Hotel, for five guineas, which sum iucludes table d'hote, breakfast, luncheon, after- noon tea, dinner, as well as a shower and sea water plunge in the hotel's baths. Reliability is what the careful housewife should look for in an article. It is very un- satisfactory to find something excellent one week, but inferior the next. Reckitt's Blue is always of the same quality, and that the highest. One can be certain that linen washed with Reckitt's will be pure and white, without those annoying spots and blue flecks that so frequently result from the use of inferior makes. And Reckitt's Blue is not only the best, but it is the most economical, for the colouring matter which it contains is so strong, that a very little goes a very long way. To be obtained in cir- cular or square blocks, at £ d. and Id. each, or in ^d. or Id. bags ready for use. "A friend of mine," says a writer in the Bristol Evening News, "who has just returned from his holidays at Tenby informs me that angling competitions are very popular amongst the visitors at that resort. A committee of local anglers is formed and a charge of Is. is made for each entrant. As many as forty lines are to be seen in the sea at the same time, and excellent prizes are given for the heaviest weight caught. In order to interest lady visitors a supplementary prize is allotted to the lady who catches the smallest fish. These com- petitions have been held every Wednesday afternoon throughout the season, and have so caught 011' that they attract large numbers of spectators to the pier-head. Tenby's example might well be copied at other seaside resorts where deep-sea fishing is indulged in."
MOTOR SMASH IN THE NORTON.
MOTOR SMASH IN THE NORTON. Shortly after four o'clock on Tuesday after- noon an unfortunate motor collision occurred at the bottom of The Norton, Tenby, near the Convent, when a motor car belonging to Colonel H. H. Goodeve, J.P., of Ivy Tower, driven by his chauffeur, was run into by a car belonging to Messrs. George Ace, Limited, and driven by a chauffeur named Charles Lewis. Colonel Goodeve, who was in the car at the time, happily escaped without injury, but some damage was caused to the car, the repair of which was at once placed in the hands of Mr A. W. Randall, of the Motor House, Tenby. The damage to Colonel Goodeve's car consisted of smashed wing and footboard and disabled springs. Later 011 in the afternoon Colonel Goodeve was driven back to Ivy Tower in a carriage.
....... HOTEL SERVANT MISSING.
HOTEL SERVANT MISSING. A Swiss-Italian named Hermann Mayr, em- ployed as a kitchen porter at the Royal Gate House Hotel, Tenby, disappeared from his situation last Friday under mysterious circum- stances, and which seems to point strongly to the idea of suicide. Somewhere about ten o'clock on Friday morning the unfortunate man, who had only been in the town about a month, having come from the York Hotel, King's Cross, was observed to leave the hotel, and shortly afterwards a note written to the pantry- man was found. In this letter addressed to his fellow servant, who by the way shared his bed- room with him, Mayr expressed the intention of taking his life, a threat which contained special significance when it became known that he was possessed of a revolver, which weapon he is said to have been seen in the act of cleaning a day or so previous to his *disap- pearance. The local police were at once ap- prised of what had occurred, and Sergeant Alfred Thomas lost no time in organizing an active search for the missing man. In the course of the enquiries instituted it was dis- covered that Mayr had passed the Golf Club- house, near Black Rock, soon after leaving the Gate House Hotel on Friday morning, and was observed by several caddies. It was assumed that he had made his way across The Burrows in the direction of Giltar, but although the most diligent search has been made no trace of his subsequent movements have been found. With the assistance of numerous caddies and others Sergeant Thomas made a close and systematic search among the furze and fern, as well as other probable hiding places in the neighbourhood of Giltar, but these efforts were fruitless, whilst careful enquiries in other direc- tions have also yielded no result. Under the circumstances it seems very probable that the unfortunate foreigner, who was about twenty- five years of age, and was engaged by Mr Max Krempl (the manager of the Gate Hoitse Hotel) through an agency, has committed suicide either by drowning or shooting himself on the cliffs. When he left the hotel he was wearing his working clothes and a pair of slippers, his other possessions being left behind.
BODY FOUND THIS MORNING.
BODY FOUND THIS MORNING. Just as we go to press this (Thursday) morn- ing, we have received information that the body of the unfortunate man referred to above has been found on the South Sands. It ap- pears from the state of the body as if deceased had shot himself, there being a bullet wound in the head.
B '• BW COMMITTEE MEETINGS.
B '• BW COMMITTEE MEETINGS. THE CULVERT PLANS. CORPORATION FIELDS AT PEMBROKE. NOTICE TO TENANT WITHDRAWN. DAMAGING TOWN COUNCIL PROPERTY. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ORDERED. r-. NEXT YEAR'S MAYORALTY. On Monday afternoon over two hours were occupied by members of the Tenby Corporation in discussing various important matters in committee, the Mayor (Councillor C. Farley) presiding.—The Borough Surveyor read his digest on the reports made hy the three engi- neers invited by the Council to compete for the work of extending the Culvert 011 the South Beach. From this it appeared that "Ritec" suggested an extension only slightly longer than at present, the cost of which, including engineers' fees, was about £ 3350. "Civitas" submitted two schemes, and under the heading of "B" proposed an extension for 1200 feet from the present air shaft at a cost of about the same as "Ritec's" for only 700 feet. After a long and animated discussion it was agreed that "Civitas" should be written to and asked to guarantee that he could carry out the work estimated for a sum within £200 of that quoted in his bill of quantities. It was also decided that the Borough Surveyor should closely examine the figures given in scheme "B" by "Civitas" and report to the Council as to whether he considered the work could be pro- perly carried out for the amount mentioned.— Councillor Mason complained that the Borough Surveyor obliged the owner of Glenwood, on the New Road, to do away with a cesspit and connect direct to the new sewer laid to the pro- perty, when the interests of the town would have been better studied if the overflow from the cesspit only had been connected for the present. He (Councillor Mason) complained that the Corporation were sanctioning the con- struction of a cesspit by Mr Brookman within a few yards of Glenwood, yet obliged the owner of this latter residence to fill up his. The committee approved the action of the Borough Surveyor, on which Councillor Mason declared that the true interests of Tenby did not seem to be their study.—The Surveyor produced plans of a new house to be built by Councillor W. H. Thomas in Picton Road, which he reported were satisfactory, and it was proposed, seconded and carried, that they be passed, before some of the Councillors had had them in their hands. The Tenby Town Council can be very expeditious when* they please The Town Clerk reported that he had taken possession of the cottages in the South Parade on behalf of the Town Council. One had been vacated, and he proposed that the remaining five tenants be allowed to contiuue on at a weekly rental of four shillings, including the rates. This was agreed to.—The Town Clerk next read a letter from Miss Griffiths, of Pem- broke, stating that she had no wish to give up the land which had been applied for by Messrs. Stephens Brothers, and hoping that the Town Council were not tired of her as a tenant. She paid her rent promptly, and did well by the land. The Town Clerk reported that he had sent her notice to quit, but it was unanimously agreed that the notice should be withdrawn and Miss Griffiths allowed to continue as tenant. Some surprise was expressed that in the face of MihS Griffiths's letter the Town Clerk should have sent her notice to quit.—With regard to the field known as Knowle Park, it was re- solved that the grazing should be let for the next twelve months, subject to conditions, and that the Borough Surveyor should prepare plana for the laying out of the field for the purpose of erecting workmen's dwellings thereon.—The Town Clerk reported that he had served notice to quit upon a tenant of some land who was nearly two years in arrear with his rent, and this action was approved and confirmed.— Attention was called to the disgraceful con- dition of Chapel Hill Fields, belonging to the Corporation, and members were invited to in- spect the property for themselves, in order that the matter should be further discussed at a future meeting. —An officer from Warwick wrote asking for intormation as regards a camping ground for a company of Territorials in or near Tenby, and also whether any troops were stationed here. The Town Clerk was requested to give the information asked for.—A letter from the Local Government Board with regard to the adoption of a new Act was read, and it was agreed to comply with the Board's request and adopt certain sections of same. The County Education Committee wrote a second time that some gentleman should be elected in the room of Alderman Leach as manager under their committee but as no gentleman present would accept the post, the matter had again to stand over.—The Borough Surveyor asked per- mission to expend £7 in fixing two gates and posts in Broadwell Hayes Fields, occupied by Mr George Jenkins, and his request was agreed to, in spite of the protests of one Councillor, who declared the outlay to be twice as much as it need be.—The Surveyor reported that he had caught two young men in the act of damaging Corporation property, and asked for instructions as to proceeding against them. It was unanimously resolved that proceedings should be taken against the young men IN question.—It was also agreed to spend 16s. 011 a small wooden gate to enclose the little piece of waste ground adjoining the slaughter-houses. —The Town Clerk read a portion of the report of the Lighting Committee, the other part having been mislaid. The Committee were understood to recommend the shifting of some lamps at the bottom of Victoria Street, the placing of one extra lamp between the Slaughter house and the Green, and the conversion of some to incandescent burners.—The question of new cover for scavenger's carts was intro- duced but no decision was arrived at.-The ob- struction of High Street by the market carts on Saturday was also referred to, but although discussed nothing was done in the matter. With regard to the alleged encroachment by Councillor Wilfred Rees whilst erecting a new house next to the Five Arches, the Surveyor reported in view of the lease granted to the late Mr Rees at 2s. per annum for a portion of the steps leading to the Five Arches he could not say that any encroachment had .taken place.— The Surveyor produced three ground plans for the proposed improvement on the site now occu- pied by the old South Parade cottages, and it was agreed that they should lie on the table in the Council Chamber for inspection by mem- bers, and discussion at a future meeting.—It was also agreed that the Town Clerk write Alderman James Griffiths and ask him to be good enough to quote a price for the coal-yard, adjoining the cottages and so enable the Town Council to proceed with the improvement with- out delay. One member present invited Alder- man Griffith to make the town a present of the coal-yard, when he would stand the Corporation a dinner so that they might pass a vote of thanks to him.—Alderman Griffiths retorted that he should want the price of a good many dinners for his yard.^—As the meeting was breaking up Councillor Mason appealed to the Mayor to permit a discussion upon the election of a Mayor for the coming year. He understood that his Worship had no wish to be elected for a second term, and as the next senior member (Councillor Truscott) had informed him (the speaker) that he would not accept the office, he consequently thought the present a good time to invite some gentleman of position to become Mayor of Tenby. Other towns selected their Mayors in meeting assembled, and there seemed no valid reason why the same thing should not be done in Tenby. The sug- gestion was very coolly received, however. One member declared that they did not select the Mayor until after November 1st another that no Mayor'outside the Town Council of Tenby had been elected since 1834. The Councillor making the suggestion declared that they were "a miserable lot" and cared nothing for the true interests of the town. The meeting broke up amidst an exchange of sarcastic compliments,
