A Tergeant of police took the name and address of the defendant, and in reply to questions, the defendant explained his conduct by stating he bad been reading about the Territorials and about tbe Loudon police practising. In reply to the Chairman, the defendant said he did not belong to the Territorials. The Chairman: You onght to join they would teaob yon a good deal abont the use of firearms. A fine of 2s. 6d. and costs was imposed. Joseph Green, pawnbroker, Mold, was summoned in connection with this case for selling the revolver to Williams on a previous date, and also for not keeping a register of the sale of firearms, as required by the Pistols Aot, 1903.—Green was ordered to pay j61 Os. 4d., inoluiive of costs,

NEWMARKET. BARROW HUNTING IN FLINTSHIRE. Anoisfit barrows or tuu uli are nniioerous hi many parts of Britain, and various forma of these aocisn} sep d shral mounds are to be fonod widely distributed over ahrlofe part of the world. Ncrtfa Wales is particularly rioh in tbesli structures. Many good examples oce.tir in Fli«tifci?e, and especially on the platoau between Holywell and Owm, near Rhaddlaa. Peaoant, who resid",d hereabout*, gives an account of one of these barrowa in his 14 H &t r? of the Parishes of Whitf-f. i1 i and Holysvel! which appeared in 1796. Comparatively little work has been done since then, or iniead at anytime, on these Welsh tumnli. Investigation cf t^ig kind, besides extremely in- ter stiajf, would be of value in contributing tooor kno-led,ze of the o'd inhabitants of this district Father P. St*pl«too, H.J., of St. Beuno'^ College, lIear St. ABipli, has been devoting some attention to these Flintshire barrows, aud has gone to much trouble in excavatiag a tamnlas r;ef.r Newmarket, and he giv«s an interesting illustrated account of his work ia a reoent issne of £ Arohsedogia Caoa- hrensis." Fragments of cinerary urns and human remains were itoaod, together with larga quantities of oak charcoal. Various implement* such as have bemyielded by the Kent and Yorkshire tamuli, and which would enable a fairly definite period to be assigned to these fltraoiures, have not yet beozi found, but there is no doubt that farther investigation of the many Flintshire barrows would yield much valaabie information.

HALKYN. ODDFUIXOWS' CONFERENCE,—The Holywall District was represented at the A.M.C. of the Indepeodent Order of Oddfellows, M.U., at Bradford, last week, by Mr Peter Evans, Spring Bank, Grand Hatter of the Holywell District for last year.

FLINT. THE MEMOBIAL INFANT SCHOOL.-Of the 50 child- ren who left after the Whit-week holidays to go to higher schools, we find that nine children went to the Connoil School, and 41 to the Fiiat Church School. A proposed new school in the diatrbt of Oaken boll, is received with acclamation by the parents who live in that distant part of the parish of Flint. The invitable bai come, the coaafcrt of tha children in that neighbourhood was saotifioed, when the new Oouacil Sobool was built two miles away, aad much too near the town of Fiint. It is too much in these days to expect little children of three years old to go such a long distance in all weathers for their education. SUCCESSFUL SUNDAY SCHOOL Wolax.-On Sanday last, at the English Presbyterian Chapet, Chaster- street, the Rev. D. Edwards, pastor, distributed the oertifioates gained by the scholars at the recent Scripture extmioation held nsder the auspices of the Lancashire, Caeshire and North Wales Presbytery. The examiner was the Rev. D. J. Williams, B.D., Bangor, and the successful soholars were:—Division IV—Dorothea Edwards, Tho Manse Arthur Jones, Swan-street. Division III-George Coates, Queen- atreet; Wilford B. Edwards, Victoria Villa; Adolpb Sahiekie, Chester-street; Ada M. Edwards, The Manae; Gladys B. Edwards, Victoria Villa.

BAGIL L.T. BULIARD MATCH. Oti Taesdvy evading, a billiard match that excite1 much interest and drew a crowded attendance at the Conservative Cliibroom, took place, when Mr Williams, of the White Horse, played Mr Price, Hanmer Terrace, late of Liverpool, a game of 600 up. Mr Williams made 500 to Mr Prioe's 450. The winner was in fine form, and a really good game was witnessed. It is not generally known that for muslin or lace curtains, coloured pinafores., or pi blouses, that starch made with common flour answers every purpose. To four or five pints of starch add one teaspoonful of salt to pre- vent the iron from sticking. It is more economical than starch. Be sure to see all lumps are gone before pouring the boiling water. Stained brass trays, etc., may be cleaned quite easily by mixing a little vinegar with metal polish, and rubbing the article with it briskly. It will polish beautifully, and last clean much longer than when ordinary metal polish is used alone. A sprig of rue or a few black currant leaves., gives a flavour to black tea. For the flavour of green, choose the young tender leaves, fresh gathered, aDd, take care not to overdo it in quantity; four currant leaves, and rather less of rue, are sufficient for a large pot of tea- 4 CABE OF THE TEETH, Most people do not visit a dentist until 'driven to do so by a distressing toothache, But when decay has gone far enough to cause pain the best efforts of a skilful dentist can never fully repair the damage. Artificial teeth are, of course, better than none, but they cannot compare in value with tie 11 a hi- ral ones. Well-cared-for teeth safeguard the general health by ensuring an aseptic condi- tion of the mouth, as well as by making it possible to masticate one's food thoroughly. Intelligent culture of the teefli, begun in early childhood and continued through life, ,will go far towards removing a, large amount of unnecessary pain and suffering, [THESE Wives ARE WANTED. "It is all very well to pretend that men are too poor to marry nowadays," said a well" known clergyman lately. "Heaps of men are looking out for wives—and seeking high and low for some woman who will make it her business to excel in all those Womanly qualities that make a home more attractive to the average man than clubs or music-halls and theatres. The wives that are wanted are ,women who arc not above being domesti- cated, but are clever enough not to let domes- ticity make them dull and uninteresting. A man likes his wife to be pretty, bright and attractive without being vain-he wants someone to show him affection and yet to be firm enough to keep him up to his duty, and sensible enough to be able to discuss all his affairs with." ^EEETABLES AND MEDICINES. Nearly all vegetables have a medicinal action of some kind, aud the subject is cer- tainly worth studying. Asparagus, for in- stance, forms part: of the cure for rheumatic patients at such health resorts as Aix-les- Bains. Carrots, as containing a quantity of sugar, are avoided by some people, ^mle others complain of their being indigestible. With regard to the latter accusation, it may be remarked, in passing, that it is the yellow core of the carrot that is difficult of diges- tion; the outer red layer is tender enough, In Savoy, the peasants have recourse to an infusion of carrots as a specific for jaundice. .Tite large sweet onion is very rich in those alkaline elements which counteract the poison of rheumatic gout. If slowly stewed in weak broth and eaten with a little cayenne pepper, it will be found to be an a.dmira.He article of diet for paticntd of gtudigug gna sedentary habits 1

BRYNFORD. Tall CaUROH ANNIVERSARY. This fxtreinely popular festival has been fixed for Snnday, JOi" 11th, when the Rev Joseph Devi s, the eloquent viy*r of Peuyeae (aud forme>ly cerate of H lyweil) will be tbe preacher. On the Monday following the Rev. T. Lloyd, vicar of Rhyl, will preach. Tste anniveraary festival will be btle. on Wednesday, July 14tb. PBEAOHISTQ AT CYNFAEK CHAPS!—The annual preaching meetings in connection with Cynfaun Wefleyan Chapel were commenced on Saturday eweoicg list, and continued throughout Sunday and Monday. The special pteachers were the Rev Chai. Jones, Lbnfyllin Rev Edw. Davies, Liverpool and the Rev J. Lloyd Hughes, Caerwys. The whole of the services were attended by remarkably large congregations. VBHICULAB ACCIDENTs.-Last Thursday, a man and woman and a girl, descending Brynford hill in a trap, had an exciting experience. The horse went down, breakiag its knees, and the shafts of the trap were broken. The ooonpants of the trap had a marvellous escape.—On Tuesday afternoon, a young horse attached to a cart, belonging to Mr E; Lsaning, Ty Cooh Farm, shied at some bits of paper scattered by the wind, and dashed along the road. The wheel of the cart ran along the top of the low wall of the field next Lily Terrace, for some cistanee, and then Jthe cart, which was loaded with water casks aad some furniture, toppled over, Mr Edwin Davies made a plucky dash as the frightened horse, and stopped it before it harmed itself. Davies, how- ever, was not so fortunate himself. In his efforts with the struggling horse, he sustained a nasty and severe grazing and braising on his tbigh and hip.

USEFUL RECIPES. MUTTON CAKES.—-Chop the meat fin-0, re- moving bits of fat and gristle. Season with salt, pepper, and a little onion juice. (It is always better to grate, than to slice onions for seasoning). Mix with the minced meat one-fifth of its bulk of fine breadcrumbs, wet with the gravy, and work in the beaten yolk of a raw egg to "bind" the mixture. Mould into flat cakes, dip these into a beaten raw egg, then in breadcrumbs, and set in a cold place overnight. Fry quickly in deep fat made very hot, Take up as soon as they are done, drain off every drop of fat, and lay upon rounds of lightly-browned toast in a heated dish. Garnish with sprigs of parsley. -b COTTAGE CHEESE P.T.F.To one cup cottage cheese add one cup sweet cream, one beaten egg, three tablespoons sugar, mixed with one tablespoonful flour, a pinch of salt, and cin- namon to taste. Bake in an under crust, The cottage cheese is made by placing soma clabbered milk over the fire and letting it warm through, and then pouring it in a cheesecloth bag, and hanging it up. When the whey has dropped out, mix the cheese smooth with a little sweet cream and salt it ito 1:AiI-

FOR THE LITTLE FOLKS THE LITTLE BROWN BULBS. The little brown bulbs went to sleep in the ground, In their little brown nighties they slept very sound; And Winter he raged and he roared over- head. But never a bulb turned over in bed. But when Spring came tip-toeing over the lea, Her finger on lip, just as still as could be, The little brown bulbs at her very first tread All split up their nighties and jumped out of bed! TOMMY AND THE BABY. Tommy was a little boy: the baby was just a wee mite; Timothy was a black kitten, and Suzanne was simply an ordinary doll. Tommy was digging potatoes in the gar- den, when he heard a childish chuckle of de- light. He thought it came from the pond at the other side of the hedge. "I'll go and see what it is," he said. He crawled through a gap in the hedge, and there he saw the pond. In the middle floated a cradle, and in the cradle was a jiaby. In front of the baby sat a little black kitten, and they were both looking at some- thing in the water. Tommy also looked. There, hanging on a water plant, was a doll. "Suzanne! Suzanne! Pobr Spzanne! the baby kept crying. "I want Suzanne." Tommy waded into the water and fetched the cradle and baby out on to the grass. A woman came running up, and took the baby in her arms. "Thank you, little boy," she said. "Some naughty boys must have pushed her into the water." Tommy heard the baby crying, "Suzanne! Suzanne 1" and then he thought of the doll. He once more went into the water, brought out the doll, and the baby crowed and was happy again. ANTHONY'S JOY. Some boys are fond of bicyclesj And some are fond of tops, Some like to spend a, penny On acidulated drops; t But out of all the pleasures That it's possible to gain, There's nothing like a, journey In a railway train. I stand against the window When it's nearly time to go, And watch the busy people As they hurry to and fro. There's a, guard, aud there's a porter, And they're talking might and main-r- Oh there's nothing like a journey In a railway train. .There goes the falling signal! Hark! a whistle. Now we're off! The engine wheels are spinning, And they make the boiler cough; pu-ff! Ou-ff! a clank and rattle, Ou-ff-er Ou-ff-er! once again; And we start our jolly journey In a railway train.

FLINTSHIRE LICENCES. SIX HOUSES TO BE COMPENSATED The Flintshire Licensing Committee sat at Mold on Thursday, and were occupied for over three hours in hearing evidence with regard to seven licensed houses, situated in various parts of the county, that had been referred for compensation by the magistrates. Mr J. Eldon Baokes, K.C., presided, and there was a large attendance of magistrates, MINERS' ARMS, HOLYWELL. The first license considered was that of the Miners' Arms, Brynford-street, Holywell. Mr T. C. Roberts appeared for the magistrates, and the owner and tenant were represented by Mr Taylor, of Chester. The house had been referred on the usual grounds of redundancy, as was the case with most of the other houses. In Holywell, said Superintendent Jones, there was one licensed house to every 80 of the population. For ten years prior to the last census there had been a great decrease of population in the Holywell district. No opposition was offered to the proposal not to renew the license. ST. WINEFRIDE'S VAULTS, With regard to St. Winefride's Vaults, High-street, Holywell, Mr Roberts again appeared for the magistrates and Mr T. W. Hughes (Flint), represented the owners. No objection was offered to the proposal to compensate. LIVERPOOL ARMS. The Liverpool Arms, Greenfield, was the next license considered. Mr Roberts appeared for the magistrates and Mr T. W. Hughes for the owners. The proposal to compensate was not contested. FE-ATHERS INN, NORTHOP. In the case of the Feathers Inn, Northop, Mr R, S. Kelly represented the Mold justices and Mr T. W. Hughes appeared on behalf of the owners. Superintendent Davies, of Mold, gave evidence that this license was not required in the village. There were three other licensed houses, and there were plenty of facilities for refreshment in the village. No objection was offered to the proposal to compensate. BLACK INN, RHUDDLAN. The owners of the Black Inn, Rhuddlan, who were represented by Mr Montgomery, barrister, objected to the proposal to refer that house for compensation. Mr Gamlin appeared for the magistrates, A number of witnesses were called on both sides, and the Rev, T. W. Vanghan (vicar of Rhuddlan) and the Rev. B. Evans (Baptist minister) gave evidence that the house was not required. Several witnesses were called, who said the house was convenient and, if placed in good repair, would be suitable one for visitors. UNION ARMS, MOLD. The owners of the Union Arms, Henffordd- street, Mold, were represented by Mr Taylor, Chester. Mr J. B. Marston, Mold objected to the proposal to compensate on behalf of the tenant. Mr R. S. Kelly was for the justices. LIFEBOAT INN, SANDYCROFT, Much attention was devoted to the license of the Lifeboat Inn, Sandycroft, which had been leferred. Mr R. S. Kelly appeared for the justices, and Mr W. H. Churton, Chester, represented the owners. Superintendent Davies said that there were other objections to this house when the question was before the magistrates besides those laid by the police on the ground of non-requirement. Mr Churton said that was on account of the way in which the house was managed formerly, but there were no complaints as to the way the house was conducted by the present licensee. To Superintendent Davies I believe there was formerly a widow at the house who had some rather attractive daughters ? The Superintendent: I believe so, sir (laughter). Mr Churton said the house was worth j £ 2t000, whereas if the license were taken away the propeny would not be worth more than ^300. COMMITTEE'S DECISION, After deliberation in private the members returned to the court, and the Chairman announced that they had decided to refuse the licenses or all the houses, subject to compensation, with the exception of that of the Lifeboat Inn. The Chairman entered into the reasons that had induced the Com- mittee to renew the licence of the Lifeboat Inn, which included the fact that the propor- tion of licences at Sandycroft was one to every 250 residents, whereas there were other districts where the proportion was one to every So. Another meeting of the Committee will be held early in August, when the amount of compensation payable in respect of the licenses that had been refused will be decided upon.

THE LIGHTHOUSE. "1 want to go and look at the lighthouse," said Jimmy. I have no time to take you now," au- swered father; "run and have a game with Gladys." I "Don't want to play! 'sides, she's only a baby," grumbled the little boy. i "Well," said father, "you can go if you like and walk round the lighthouse, but poor baby lias no one to play with her, and if you arc my kind little boy, I know what you will do." And then father went away. Jimmy stood and thought. "We are going away to-morrow, and I won't be able to see it," he said, looking across the cliff to where the tall, white building' stood. "I'll just run over-it won't take long." He started to run, then suddenly changed his mind, and running back, burst into the front room, Baby shrieked with delight when she saw Jimmy, and was so happy playing games till dinner time. As they rose from dinner, father said: "Now, Jimmy, get your hat. You have been such a good boy, mother says, that I will take you to see the lighthouse." Jimmy was delighted and trotted off with father over the grass. "Would you like to go inside?" asked father, and Jimmy was almost too pleased to .speak. So in they went, and up a long, winding stair; and presently they reached the room where the light was. Such a funny lamp! all surrounded with glass which made Jimmy's face all kinds of queer shapes. "It's the nicest treat I ever had, father; I am so glad I waited," said Jimmy. CHOOSING. .Which hand will you have, The left or the right?" Mother keeps both hands Well out of sight. Betty looks puzzled, As well she may, For surely it's difficult Which to say. One hand has 1 cherries, One will have none; If she chose rightly Then 'twill be fun. If she chose wrongly Then dear, oh dear! Betty won't get them, I greatly fear. Betty says, "Left hand!" Trembling with fright; Mother says, smiling, "Bravo! That's right I" "WHERE ARE YOU GOING TOP" "Where are you going to, my pretty maid?" "I am going a-milking, sir," she said. "May I go with you, my pretty maid?" "You're kindly welcome, sir," she said. "What is your father, my pretty maid?" "My father's a farmer, sir," she said. "What is your fortune, my pretty maid. I "My face is my fortune, sir," she said. "Then I won't v marry you, my pretty maid "Nobody asked you, sir," she said, ¡
