Rescued from Drowning at Dowlais I I A CORRECTION. In our account last week of L rescue o. Samuel Stacey. from the big pond. Penywern on the 25th ult., we stated that Pavid Lewis, 42, Elizabeth-street, jumped into the water, ¡' and, dcspiie the man'6 struggles and resistance, brought him safely to the bank. This is not son-iv^t. What David Lewis did was to caUti" oiish erc'i p down the bank, holding on to the r*ii r;.T. ar-s) with the crook of his stick succeed- ed ii r,tiding the man into the side, and after consk': trouble, being alone for nearly an hour, ii,»r)aged to get him on to the bank. Vu ■?; P '•Hooper, Pant, arrived in plain clothes, he took charge. It was a physical im- possibility for David Lewis to jump into water, as be is himself an invalid and a crippic as the result of a serious collicrv accident at No. 1 Pit Fochriw. He is to be commended for h¡ very plucky conduct, and the coolness he displayed in rescuing the man. If the man had pulled him in, he would surely have lost 11; own life, as the water at this place is nearly 1:7£: feet deep.

The Dark Side of Convict Life. [Being the. Account of the Career of HARRY VVLLLIAMS, Merthyr Man.] At a quarter past five on Tuesday morning, the 12th of July, 19()$. Portland Prison bcL rane out its chimes, the last chimes that I was to hear in that dreadful place. 1 was fast asleep in the strong cell in the hospital when the night nurse came and knocked at my door, "Are you awake, Williaias,' says he. "el!, I'm not quite dead yet," says I. "Why, you're worth a hundred dead ones yet," he re- plied. "Anyway," says he "Get ready, for you leave here at half-past six." So up 1 jumped, put on my shoes, and was ready al- most before he had said the last word. My heart throbbed loudly as the bell itself, when I heard I was to be transferred to the Isle of Wight. They gave me my breakfast, which consisted of one pint of hot milk, half- pound of white bread, and one ounce of butter, which 1 did not forget to eat, for I had forgot- ten all about the stomach pump. Shortly after breakfast in came the medical officer. "Well, Williams, my lad," says h, in a kind, fatherly way, "how do you feel this morning?" "Well, just about the same as usual, sir," says I. "Have you eaten your breakfast?" says he. sir," 1 replied. He then proceeded to examine me in order to see whetlir I was fit to travel. That done, he gave me a bit of his advice, saying, "Your heart is perfectly sound, Williams, and it is my opinion that if you will look after yourself when you get to Parkhurst you will very soon be better, but do not get excited, and keep perfectly calm." I then said, "I suppose, sir, you are sending me to my last camping place." "Oh, dear, no, says he. "You must not think of dying yet. Your organs are all perfectly sound, and I do not see why you should not keep them sound." "But I have a very weak stomach, sir," says I. •'Well, that may be," says he, ''but people with delicate stomachs live to a great age some- times, and I am sending you to the Isle of Wight because the climate is milder. Ob, you will be all right." With that he left me. He had not left me five minutes when in came the Chief Warder with a pair of handcuffs and a chain, which he proceeded to place upon my wrists. Having done so he led me up to the front gate, where I slipped into a cab, and was driven to Port- iand^railway station, where I got into a train for Southampton. The journey was rather a pleasant one, although I kept thinking it was my last, but I was afterwards told I was not i transferred to the Isle of Wight on the grounds of any organic disease, but sent there as a weak-minded convict, and when there I should be subjected to the prison rules, but placed under medical observation. I should be allow- c. to converse with my fellow oonvicts and rc- hospital diet, and be employed on light i labour in the open air. Of course, this infor- mation I received in confidence on the condition i would not breathe it even to my ten ounce loaf for the r hospital nurse who accompanied the Chief warder in charge of me was a very good man to me during the time I was in Port- 'and. I owe my life to him, for if it had not been for the great kindness which he placed at j my disposal I should be on the hill in Portland convict cemetery, instead dgf transferred to the Isle of Wight. Therefore, I do not wish to place in print even his initials, but I should very much like to place him on the roll of heroes of every-day life. After a few hours' travel by rail I reached Southampton. I stepped out of the train into ? cab, which was to take me to the pier-head, p couple of miles away. Arriving on the land- ing stage I was led on board ship, the Princess Beatrice, which took me across the water to the Isle of Wight, landing at a place called Cowes. I got off the ship into a cab, which was waiting to take me to Parkhurst Prison, a i distance of six miles. After a pleasant little journey, passing the late Queen's Island home, Oeborne House, I at last arrived at the Prison Sates, and was taken to the separate cells, searched, and then placed in a cell. My heart nearly tell from my side to my feet, and my brain swam around like the sea I had crossed w ,n found myself in prison again after such a beautiful sniff of sweet liberty. I was not in my cell long before the door was flung open, and in came the doctor, attended by a hospital nurse, for he wore a red-cross upon his arm. "Well, my lad," says the doctor, "Williams is your name, is it not?" "Yes, sir," says I. "How do you feel after your journey?" "Downhearted," I replied. "Oh," says he, "do not make yourself ill. You must cheer up. You will be all right. I will take care of you," says he, in his kind way. He then examined me, as is the usual custom, and ordered the nurse to take me into the hos- pital, and when there, I must confess, the doc- tor treated me with every possible kindness, and he continued to do so all through my time, but I had some more trouble to go through even there, for although the doctors treat a man kindly they do not know that their orders are violated. In my next chapter I will give the account of my life in Parkhurst Prison. (To be continued.)

After Seventeen Years. —— ) DOWLAIS GIRL JOINS HER FAMILY IN I AMERICA. An interesting aftermath to the American visit of the Llanellv Choir occurred at Pitts- I burg recently, when Miss Tydfil Brown, of Dowlais, the star contralto of the chorus, re- turned there to meet her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Brown, who journeyed from Ok- ( lahoma to greet her, as well as to visit other relatives in the iron city. Seventeen years had elapsed 6ince Miss Brown and her father last- met. Owing to the lack of educational facilities in the wild western town of M AlIster, Mr. Brown, a blacksmith, in 1893. decided to send his wife and four children back to the home in Dowlais, the mother and three of tho child- ren returning six years later to Pawnee, Okla- homa, whither the father had removed. Dur- ing her stay in Dowlais, Miss Tydfil Brown, who lived with her aunts, the Usses Lewie, Bryn Sion-street, showed such aptitude for music that her parents had decided to let her remain in Wales, and she subsequently studied for two years at the Royal College of Music. When the other members of the Llanelly Choir returned to Wales, Miss Brown repaired to Pittsburg to meet her family, and, after an af- fecting re-union at the homo of her aunt, Mrs. Maria Daries, the whole family proceeded to their home at Pawnee.

Meeting of Ratepayers in Dowlais < COUNCILLOR ISAAC EDWARDS ON COUNCIL WORK. Councillor Isaac Edwards addressed a public meeting of the electors resident in the upper part of the Penydarren Ward last Thursday night, in Gwernllwyn Schoolroom, presided over by Mr. David Morgan.—In his preliminary ro- marks, hlr. Morgan referred to the advantage it was to the electorate to have an opportunity like that of learning of the various matters handled by the Town Council. Councillor Edwards, in accordance with his promise given on the previous Tuesday, dealt at length upon the educational affairs of the Council, touching briefly on the other import- ant matters carried. Many of his comments were to the same effect as those reported last week. Emphasis was laid upon the excellent work done by the various officers on the Health Committee in helping to secure a low death rate, and the asset resulting to the com- munity by reason of the average number of deaths per 1,000 for the two years from 1898 to 1908 boing 21.89, and the average for the year 1909 being 17.7, this showing a clear gain of four for every 1,000 of the population. In explaining the proposals of the Council for beautifying the Parks and Cemeteries, Coun- oillor Edwajds made an earnest appeal for the loyal co-operation of the public in the preserva- tion of their own property, referring to certain acts of vandalism which had recently occurred. Many people in Dowlaii had laid great stress upon the fact that the whole policy of the Council seemed to be to beautify the Central Ward and Cyfarthfa Park, whereas they would like to see the same advantages extended to every ward; and it was important that those present should do their best to help their re- presentatives on the Council by suggesting suit- able sites which could be secured near to the oentres of population where the children could play, and also where the adults could enjoy themselves under healthy circumstances. The Penydarren and Dowlais Wards, which were practically one as far as their municipal inter- ests were conoerned, should have some place for their people to return to. The speaker re- marked that the appointment of Sir D. Bryn- mor Jones as Recorder, and the opening of the new Quarter Sessions, was indicative of the growing dignity of the Borough, and many new matters had come to be attended to, show- ing how the legislation was still imposing upon the Corporation immense responsibilities and privileges which would not have been the case had town not been incorporated. There was great need for new buildings, inasmuch as the present accommodation in the Town Hall was crowded to such an extent as to make it diffi- cult for the staff to carry out their work. Coming to the question of education, Coun- cillor Edwards referred to the delicate, serious, urgent, and important nature of the work which had to be dealt wrth, mentioning for one thing how difficult it was to secure a fair, equitable, and acceptable rule in the matter of teaching appointments on the very large and most effi- cient staff under the control of the Committee. He referred also to the huge sum that was being spent year by year, and how in the near future there would still be a very large addi- tional sum of money to be spent in putting up new schools, which, of course, would call for many new appointments and add to the already heavy automatic annual increases in I the amount of salaries to be paid. The Attend- ance Committee was favourably criticised, and it was explained how the present system of ) making the school interesting contrasted with t.he system of long ago, when the child stood in dread and awe of "Bobby Green," the result ) of the altered method bemg that the percent- ¡ age of attendance had gone up verv much dur- ing the last few years; consequently, this Bor- ough bad gained financially owing to the money grants being dependent upon the aver- age attendance. The system of medical in-* spection and the worked the school nurse were dwelt upon, and a compliment paid to these I officers in the carrying out of their work, which would mean a very great improvement to the coming generation. The absolute need I of having an "organizer of education" to bring the school system up to the highest possible level was referred to, and praise given to the Clerk (Mr. Stephens), who had served the auth- ority far so many years in a manner beyond ail cnitioism, and whose influence would ever re- main impressed upon our whole educational } system. The work was still growing, and I there was now a call for a new offioer—not to j interfere with the work that Mr. Stephens had in hand-but to be more in the schools, inspect- ing and conducting the qualifying examinations, arranging conferences with the staff in order j to obtain a uniform system of working, co- ordinating primary, secondary, and evening j schools, supervising the training of teachers, and, above all, advising the Education Com- mittee in its very serious and responsible duties. The matter of the proposed conversion of Cyf- j arthfa Castle into a Secondary School came j next under consideration, and Councillor Ed- j wards explained that the Authority had been very hard pressed by the. Board of Education to put up a school The various points of j view were gone into in detail, some advocating separate schools, others the conversion of the Castle into a school, others again pleading for the erection of a new school in the Castle grounds. The present attitude of waiting for tenders so as to have a proper and reliable ba&s of the cost to go upon was explained, and Councillor Edwards said the electors would then have a full opportunity of knowing the position and giving their representatives in- structions how to deal with the matter. In discussing the personal aspect of the Council work, Councillor Edwards said he wished to recognise with gratitude the work done by all sections of the members on the Corporation, and while most heartily deprecating party in- terference in the affairs of the Borough, he reminded them that the Council was a huge business concern and required business manage- ment; and when the issues were duly borne in mind, and the of matter which had to be gone through week by week fully ised, it would be seen that the representing of an Un- portant ward like Penydarren upon the Town Council was not a very light matter. Councillor Edwards having spoken for over an hour, the Chairman announced that the opportunity had come for questions. Among the questioners were Messrs. John A. Williams. William John Edwards, John Williams David Jones, Evan Parry, Henry Hicks, D. Rees Davies, the questions ranging froma a criticism of the Joint Asylum Scheme and the Evening Classes during last winter to the filling in of the Gasworks hollows, the Secondary School at Cyfarthfa, the need for more public lavaterie. the fair or unfair condemnation of bouse p- perty, Sunday trading, the question of tl-ir oiMe fares versus first-class fares for Count I lore when on Corporation business, and the put ting of seats at Dolygaer, around the The questions were dealt with one by one, in a. manner that satisfied the assembly, with, the exception of one gentleman, who would rot aooepi an assurance that his particular griev. ance had been dealt with in an efficient man- ner. Mr. David Jones. Morl moved a resolution thanking Councillor Edwards for hie address, and expressing oonfidenoe in him as a suitable representative of the Penydarren I W-Mr. Evan Parry seconded.—Mr. D. M. Oriel, Mr. D&vid Griffiths, and several others spoke in support, remarking upon the immense sMrvey of work that had been dealt with and StO masterful grasp of detail which had been shown by Councillor Edwajds, stating that it iftciuid be the duty of the electorate to assist r: re-jmsssntatives in t.he discharge of rv.ir^r,siL,i^ ai'.d onerous duties in eve. v possible Tho roie was unanimously carried.
