The mildness of the Tenby climate during the winter months lias always been proverbial, consequently it is no surprise to hear that primroses are in bloom in our hedgerows.

Mrs Railton very kindly gave most of the tea and the Committee are most grateful to Mrs Peerless for so generously putting her rooms, etc., at their disposal also to herself and staff for all their kind assistance. Next Wednesday evening at eight o'clock, in 0 the Tenby Congregational School-room, the inaugural address in connection with the Young Men's Society, recently formed, will be delivered by the President, the Rev. J. Lloyd Williams, B.A., subject, "The Englishman's Place and Power in Mondern Progress." All are invited. -++e- We regret to record the death of Mrs Eliza Thomas, wife of Mr John Thomas, the re- spected Merger of St. Mary's Church, Tenby, which took place on Monday after, a somewhat long illness. The deceased, who was sixty years of age, Avas a native of Yately, Hamp- shire, and had resided in Tenby twenty years. The funeral took place yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon at the local cemetery, and was largely attended. m One of the latest enrolments on the War Office list is the Raleigh Cycle Co. The bicycle seems destined to play a very important part in the warfare of the future, and the world- wide reputation held by the famous all-steel Raleigh bicycle for rigidity, rapidity and relia- bility renders it eminently suitable for such strenuous work as military cyclists are called upon to do.—The local agent for these machines is Mr A. W. Randall, "The Motor House," Warren Street, Tenby. • A hockey match between the Pembroke- Dock Garrison and Tenby was played on the ground of the latter yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon. The first half opened very fast, and shortly after the start Tenby scored a clever goal. After good play on both sides the Garrison equalised. During the next ten minutes Tenby had very hard luck upon two occasions in not scoring. Just before half time the Garrison netted another ball. A very heavy shower marred the opening of the second half, and the ground became tricky. After some exciting play Tenby equalised through Parrott. The game was very good up to the call of time. For the home side great praise is due to Sid Williams for the manner he kept goal, saving several good shots. Parrott at centre forward and Hodges and Blanche at back deserve men- tion also for their sound play. At Pembroke (County) Police Court on Satur- day the Squire of Lamphey (Mr Charles Mathias) objected to the- magistrates signing the rate. Mr Mathias (to the assistant overseer) Have you had the valuation list altered since I ob- jected to it ?-The Assistant Overseer No, Mr Mathias Then I object to the rate. There are some -of the assessments of the acreage wrong. Some of the land is put down to me and occupied by other people. I should be obliged, gentlemen, if you would adjourn the matter until he has the assessment put right. The Chairman It must be put right before we sign it. The Assistant Overseer A great deal of what Mr Mathias says is incorrect. The Chairman Mr Mathias says the acreage is wrong. The Clerk There is very little wrong which is to bo put right. The magistrates refused to sign the rate until Mr Mathias had put the matter before the Assessment Com- mittee. -.++- A short time ago the Mayor and Sheriff of Nottingham and a deputation from the city visited Calais on the occasion of the unveiling of the statue to Jacquard, whose invention of a lace machine has done so much for the manu- facture of lace for which Nottingham is so famous. The Mayor of Nottingham invited the Mayor of Calais and a number "of French officials to visit Nottingham in return, and has been entertaining thlfcm for the past few days. Among the round of sight-seeing arranged for our French visitors was the exhibition of the Raleigh Cycle Co.'s works at Lenten. The visitors declared that in the course of their visit they had seen nothing more interesting than these celebrated works, as they were well- acquainted with the famous all-steel bicycles made there, which are very popular in France. —The local agent for these machines is Mr A. W. Randall, "The Motor House," Warren Street, Tenby.

RESULT OF THE POLLING. RETURN OF MESSRS. DAVIES AND MORRISON. Polling for the four vacancies on the Tenby Town Council took place on Tuesday, with the result that two of the retiring members who sought re-election were defeated, and their places taken by two new men. The candidates were Mr Charles Farley, Mr Wilfred Rees, Mr George Thomas, and Mr Richard H. Tuck (retiring councillors); Mr William Davies, Government contractor, Weston Terrace, and Mr R. L. C. Morrison, editor of the Tenby Observer. Mr Davies, it may be mentioned, was nominated at the last moment, and without his knowledge. His first impulse was to with. draw his name from the list, but yielding to the pressure of many friends he decided to go on with his candidature, and on Tuesday night he found himself at the top of the poll with an almost record number of votes. Running as an entirely independent candidate, Mr Davies was accorded the support of all classes in the town, and his victory was an extremely popular one. He is a native of the town, a property owner, and a good sound practical business man, quali- fications which strongly recommend him as a desirable member of the Corporation. This was his first bid for municipal honours, and the result must be more than gratifying to himself and friends. Mr Farley, with twenty-three years' local municipal service to his record, ex- perienced some opposition to his candidature, but still managed to secure second place on the poll, though sixty votes separated him from Mr Daviea. Mr Morrison and Mr Thomas were close followers of Mr Farley, each of them obtaining 359 votes, or ten less than him. This is the first time for many years of a tie occurring at a local Town Council elec- tion, and in this case it was the subsequent adjudication on the doubtful papers which brought these two candidates level. Previous to this Mr Morrison was one vote ahead of Mr Thomas. There was a good deal of cross voting, though it was surprising what a large number of people (230) voted only for Messrs. Davies and Morrison. There was also a fair response to the appeal of the four retiring members (who on the eve of the election came out as a united party), to "vote solid" for them, but nothing like the combination dis- played in former contests where a block vote has been solicited. Polling took place in the Town Hall between the hours of eight a.m. and eight p.m., and 690 ratepayers out of a possible 800 or so recorded their votes. The Mayor (Mr Councillor Thomas Tucker) dis- charged the duties of Returning Officer, and with him in the polling booth were the Town Clerk (Mr G. Lort Stokes) and Mr James Hughes. The four retiring members were re- presented at the polling by Mr Lee (St John's Hill), Mr Davies by Mr C. Berry, and Mr Morrison by Mr F. B. Mason. During the early hours of the morning the weather was wet and stormy, but after ten o'clock the rain cleared off and the sun came out. By noon about two hundred ratepayers had registered their votes, but from then on to between five and six o'clock the polling was very slow. After six, however, there was a great influx of voters, and the poll clerks and presiding officer were kept very busy. It had been anticipated in some quarters that the election would pass off without attracting any great excitement, but the final figures proved how keenly interested the town as a whole was in the contest. Six hundred and ninety recorded their votes, only about fifty less than was the case in November, 1908, which is regarded as one of the stiffest local municipal contests, when Mr F. B. Mason secured a seat with the record number of 247 plumpers among his 389 votes. It is somewhat remarkable with regard to Mr Davies's figures that 428 people signified their approval of the formation of a Ratepayers' Association, and he received 429 vjotes, the numbers in each case being practically identical. The poll closed punctually at eight o'clock, and after the coun- terfoils of the ballot papers, marked register, and other documents had been sealed up an adjournment was made to the Council Chamber where the counting took place. It may be mentioned that in addition to the official seal of the Corporation placed on the envelope con- taining the ballot paper counterfoils, a private seal with a different coloured wax was affixed to the packet by one of the candidates—Mr Morrison. The Mayor presided at the count- ing, those present being the candidates, the Town Clerk, Mr James Hughes, Mr A. Lee, Mr A. Powell, Mr A. Davies (official counters), Mr Arthur Squibbs (counter for Mr Morrison), Mr W. H. Thomas, Mr C. Powell, Mr A. Parsell, Mr E. H. Leach, etc. The result was reached about half-past nine, and a few minutes later the Mayor announced it from the Town Hall window as follows :—

ELECTED. DAVIES 429 FARLEY 369 MORRISON 359 THOMAS 359

NON-ELECTED. REES 007 tuck Z The announcement of the names of Mr Davies and Mr Morrison was received with deafening cheers, and a large crowd accompanied Mr Davies home in triumph, he being carried shoulder-high amidst scenes of the greatest enthusiasm. Mr Morrison was formerly a member of the Town Council, from 1901 to 1904, when he was elected second on the poll, Mr Farley on that occasion being top by a single vote. In No- vember, 1904, Mr Morrison offered himself for re-election, but was defeated by Mr Tuck by the narrow majority of four votes. There were four spoilt papers rejected by the Returning Officer. As regards plumpers, Mr Davies received 24; Mr Rees, 14; Mr Morri- son, 13; Mr Farley, 8; Mr Thomas, 8 and Mr Tuck, 3.
