MERIONETH counry GOVERNING…
MERIONETH counry GOVERNING BODY. A meeting of the County Governing Body, con- stituted under the Merioneth Intermediate Educa- tion scheme, was held at the Police Station, Bar- mouth, yesterday (Thursday), Dr Edward Jones, Dolgelley, chairman, presided, and there were also present Mr E. P. Jones, Festiniog; Dr R^ger Hughes, Bala; Mr J. Lloyd Owen, Bala Mrs Rowlands, Towyn Mrs Burton, Bala Mr John Davies, Dyffryn Mr Andreas Roberts, Festiniog Messrs R. Jones Griffith, clerk and E. D. Jones, headmaster of Barmouth County School. INTERVIEW WITH THE CHIEF INSPECTOR. At the outlet the Governors conferred with Mr Owen Owen, the chief inspector, on matters per tainiug to the intermediate schools of the county. At the request of Mr Owen. the conference was conducted in private.—It was stated during the conference that there had been 439 pupils at the echools during the past year, consisting of 214 boys and 2 £ 5 girls. Curiously enough, there were also 439 pupils at the schools in the preceding year. ENFORCED ABSENCE. Letters rpgretting inability to attend were read from Mrs Price, Rhiwlas, Bala, Mr A. Osmond Williams, Borthwen, Penrhyndeudraeth, and Pro- fessor Ellis Edwards, Bala College, the Rev, T. Mortimer Green, registrar, Aberystwyth College, and Mr H. Haydn Jones, Towyn. RESIGNATION. Professor W. RhysRoberts of U.C.N. W., Bangor, wrote resigning his office as governor, his College engagements making it impossible for him to attend. The resignation was accepted. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. illr7 and Mrs Ellis of Cynlas, Corwen, wrote acknowledging the resolution of sympathy passed with them in the death of their son, Mr T. E. Ellis, M.P. A similar acknowledgment was re- ceived from Mrs T. E. Ellis, 9, Cowley-street, Westminster. TECHNICAL INSTRUCTION DAIRYING AND AGRICULTURE. The Clerk to the County Council wrote stating that the following recommendations of the County Governing Body had been adopted by the County Council :—" That a rate of 1d in the pound be 2 levied under the Technical Instruction Act that the Aberystwyth College be requested to provide five travelling dairying classes in the following places, Corwen, Trawsfynydd, Llwyngwril, Dinas Mawddwy, and Llanbedr that two scholarships of £10 each be awarded to young women to be held at Aberystwyth College in advanced dairying and cheese-making classes that five scholarships for young men to be held at Aberystwyth College be awarded to the value of 910 with the object of at- tending lectures in agriculture at the College that the balance of the technical rate be equally divided between the school districts in the county and that in the event of there being a lack of applicants that the money voted should be added to and form part of the balance." SgThe Clerk submitted a list of marks gained by students at short course examinations in agriculture at Aberystwyth College. Four Aberystwvth students were placed 14th, 15th, and 24th in the list two forms obtaining special certificates. Mr Mortimer Green wrote suggesting that airangements should be made for examination for advanced dairy scholarships tenable at Aberystwyth College. J J Mr E. P. JONES asked whether pupils of Dr Williams's School-the only countv school where dairying was taught-would be eligible to com- pete.? Farmers who had only received instruction in elementary dairying by'means of travelling classes would be placed at a disadvantage when competing with pupils of a school like Dr Williams's. The CHAIRMAN said the Governing Body had promised at the last meeting to throw the examina- tions open to Dr Williams's School and could not now go behind that promises. Moreover they could not very well offer restricted scholarships. Mr E. P. JONES spoke in favour of examinations being open to DRIW il liams' School; and Dr HUGHES was of the same opinion. On th-3 proposition of Mr JOHX DAVIES, seconded 1 by Mrs BURTON, it was agreed to throw the exam- ination opeb. Reports were received from members of committee appointed to examine clerks' legal charges for con- veyances, etc., amounting to £63. Mr Haydn Jones wrote suggesting that £ 10 be knocked off the Dili. The Clerk submitted an explanation which the Governors considered most satisfactory and it was agreed unanimously to pay the bill. An application was made by the Barmouth County School Managers for loan of balance of building fund, £ 184, at a low rate of interest and the CHAIRMAN said he had no objection to lending SU,j ,at, dISPoaa'' bat suggested that the matter should be left in abeyance for the present and the suggestion was adopted. The CLERK said! he had received cheques from Mr Arthur Hughes in respect of LIanegryn Charity, but not the full payment. The Clerk was directed to see to the matter and the Governors rose.
WOMEN'S SUCCESSES IN THE!…
WOMEN'S SUCCESSES IN THE TRIPOSES. Cambridge/has not this year unearthed such a great mathematician as Miss Fawcett, or a classic of Mis Ramsay's (Mrs Montague Butler) calibre, but there is every cause for congratulation to those interested in the higher education of women. One hundred and one women passed in one or the othsr triposes, the last of which was issued on Saturday. No fewer than thirty-seven were successful in history, seventeen qualified in classics and natural science. M athem bo tic selaim fifteen, themedisevaland modern languages turned out eleven candidates, but only four were successful in modern science. In the historical, natural science, and the mediaeval and modern languages the women equalled the highest attainments of men and though the Newnham and Girton students have not done so brilliantly in the first parts of the mathematical and classical triposes, in the second parts of those examinations Miss Cave Brown Cave and Miss Hicks attained marvellous success. t

The Caruarvonshire Baptist annual conference, held at Llanberis on Tuesday, with a large re- presentation from all parts of the county, unani- mously adopted on the motion of the Chairman of the County Liberal Association, a strongly-worded resolution declaring that the time had arrived for Welsh members to form an independent Welsh party, which, while co-operating generally with the English Liberal party, would act independently when necessary for more effectual promotion of Welsh interests. Disestablishment, control of the liquor traffic, the land question, and education were instanced as examples where Welsh public opinion is far in advance of that of England.
ABERDOVEY.
ABERDOVEY. MUSICAL.—The members of the Choral Union have decided to perform next month the well-known cantata Daniel" hy Root and Bradbury. TEMPERANCE. Last Sunday evening at the Assembly Rooms stirring addresses were given at the weekly temperance meeting by the Revs J. Williams, B.A., Dolgelley, and J. Owen, Mold.

INSTITUTE LIBRARY.—Mr John Corbett, Droit wich and Ynysmaengwyn, has sent the secretary one guinea towards the special fund which is being raised for procuring complete sets of Scott'd and Dickens' novels for the Institute Library. GOLF.—An interesting match was played here on June 17th between Mr Fowler, formerly of Min- chinhampton and temporarily of ti,is place and Mr Hurry, the Borth professional. The match ended in an easy win for Fowler, who went round in 78, made up as follows:—Out, 45434554; in, 4 4 5 3 5 4 6 4 4. With the exception of the six at the sixteenth hole caused by a sliced drive over the railway, the golf shown by him was of a very high class, especially as the dry weather had caused the links to be far from their best condition. PUBLIC MEETING.—A public meeting was called to meet in the Assembly Rooms on Tuesday even- ing to consider the best way to welcome the Bishop of Bangor on his coming to reside near Aberdovey. The Rev J. Rowlands, M.A., the vicar, took the chair and read the notice convening the meeting. The Rev W. M. Roberts, M.A., and Captain Enoch Lewis, were appointed secretaries, and Mr E. L. Rowlands and Mr John Evans, assistant secretaries. A large committee was formed which consists of representative men from every place of worship in Aberdovey of which the Vicar will be enairmari. Mr J. Hughes Jones, J.P., was elected treasurer. The Rev W. M. Roberts, M.A., gave a short address in Welsh. The Vicar fixed the first meeting of the Committee for next Tuesday evening.

PONTRH YDFENDIGAID.
PONTRH YDFENDIGAID. SCHOOL BOARD.—On Saturday, June 17th, the Strata Florida U.D. School Board met again to deal with the vexed question of irregular attend- ance at the Bont and Abbey Schools which are under its supervision, Irregular attendance at schools seems at present to be the chief topic of the day, and this Board, with others, is attempt- ing to improve the attendance. A new clerk and new attendance officer have been appointed and various devices tried to obtain improvement. Parents are defiant and care little for the officer's visits, or for tha special meetings of the School Board. Some nineteen notices had been served for the special meeting held on Saturday, but not a single parent appeared. Driven to extremes the Board decided, in order to save its own existence, to issue summonses against a few, hoping this would have the desired effect on others equally guilty, but who were more cute in sending their children to school after service of notice.
----------ABERAYRON.
ABERAYRON. GOING TO THE SHOW. —A good number from Aberayron and the vicinity joined the excursion train at Lampeter on Tuesday to go to Swansea to see Barnum's great show. CYMANFA.—The Independents held their cymanfa on Thursday, the 14th June, at Peniel Chapel. The Sunday Schools of Peniel, Neuaddlwyd, Mydroilyn, and Llwyncelyn assembled and they were examined by the Revs Lewis Evans, Y Wig E. Evans, Lampeter J. T. Patry, Cilcennin and J. M. Prydderch. Sermons were delivered in the evening by the Rev3 Lewis Evans and J. M. Prydderch. The attendances were large and much good work was found to have been done by the schools. ABERAYRON BOYS.—The Rev T. B Thomas of Monroe, New York, Presbyterian minister, has just received the degree of D.D. from the Univer- sity of New York. He is a brother to Mrs Bennet Jones, Pant-teg, of this town. He has visited his native town many times and is an intellectual and powerful preacher. Captain D. Lloyd, Island House, is at home for a month's furlough. Some few years ago, the steamer which he commanded, the South Cambria" (RatclifFe and Co.) was sent on a time charter, to trade between New York and Cuba. At the expiration of the charter, the brokers at New York offered to buy a steamer if he took the command. He agreed and the s.s. Arcadia," 3,200 tons, was purchased and he has been in com- mand of her ever since. She was employed as a transport ship during the American-Spanish war. In the course of the war, Captain Lloyd was em- ployed also as pilot on board the warship" S r, Louis," his services being requisitioned by General Brookes, as he was known to the author- ities as a skilled navigator, with a large experience of the seas and coasts of Puerto Rico and Cuba. He was present at the bombardment of St John, Puerto Rico. The New York and Porto Rico Steamship Company, which was formed in the very simple manner described above wit i one ship, of which Captain Lloyd was the captain, has now four or five boats. There are also four new and larger boats in the course of being built. The s.s. "Ponce," 5,000 tons, is the one destined for Captain Lloyd and it will be launched about the end of July. It has cabin deck accommodation for 200 passengers. The cession of Puerto Rico to the United States is opening up a large ocean traffic between that island and the States which this Company is to the front to supply. For this island, which is only 108 miles long by forty-five miles wide and has a population of 900,000, as a result of the new alliance, a great and glorious future in predicted. It is anticipated that thousands of Americans will sojourn there for business and recreation. The new boat, s.s. Ponce," is constructed so as to cover the voyage in four and-a half days from New York to San Juan. Mr James D. Dewell, governor of the State of Connecticut, made two voyages on the Arcadia" and has published a book with beautiful kodak views giving an account of the voyages, and has dedicated it to Captain Lloyd. Captain Lloyd is one of the boys whom the Aberayron people will like to talk about. He has obtained a good position, is a trusted officer of the Company, and has a bright future.

In each cse the conveyances were provided by Mr David Phillips, Terrace-road, Aberystwyth. NURSING.—A meeting of collectors for the funds of the Aberystwyth Nursing Association was held at, the Town Hall on Thursday last. The town was divided into four wards and eight ladies were appointed to each ward for the purpose of making a house to house collection. Subscriptions are coming in, but much more money is wanted before the work can be started or the nurses engaged. TREAT TO SCHOOL CHILDREN.—Mr G. Croydon Marks purposes giving a treat to all the pupils of the day schools ot the town, including the Board Schools and National Schools, next Wednesday at the Cliff Gardens. The children will be taken up the Hill by means of the Cliff Railway. Tea will be provided in the Gardens and late in the evening there will be amusements and entertainments. OUTING TO PONTRHYDYGROES.—The annual Out- ing given by Mr John Lloyd, timber and slate merchant, Trefechan, to his employees, took place on Saturday in beautiful weather. The party was driven in brakes provided by Mr Bennieon, Terrace- road, to Pontrhydygroes via Trawscoed. Dinner was provided at the Miners' Arms. At Devil's Bridge, the Mynach Falls were visited and tea after: wards partaken of and the party proceeded home round Ponterwyd, arriving at Aberystwyth about half past nine, after having thoroughly enjoyed themselves. OUTING TO LLANRHYSTYD.—Mr R. James, choir- master of Holy Trinity Church, gave the annual outing to the members of the Church choir, number- ing between forty and fifty, last Saturday. The party left Aberystwyth in brakes provided by Messrs R. Jones and Sons, North-parade, about two, andtook a circular route, Llanrhystyd being reached about six. An excellent tea was catered at the Black Lion Hotel. After two hymns had been sung, a start for home was made, Aberystwyth being reached at half-past ten. The weather was beautifully fine and a pleasant time was spent. FINAL PICNIC.—The annual picnic promoted by the students of the College sitting for their final ex- amination, took place on Friday, Pontrhydygroes and Devil's Bridge being visited. The party, which numbered about thirty-five, was accompanied by Mrs Principal Roberts and Prof. Morgan Lewis and Mrs Lewis. Prof. Genese and others made the journey on their bicycles. The brakes, which were provided by Messrs Morris, Waterloo Hotel, left Aberystwyth at ten and Pontrhydygroes wns reached at twelve. The party walked for a distance of a mile and a half through Pontrhydygroes woods and a large number continued on foot to the Devil's Bridge. Tea was partaken at six and later on some members visited the falls. A start for home was made at 8-30 and Aberystwyth was reached at eleven. The arrangements, which were most satis- factory, were carried out by a committee of which Mr Pring was secretary. TRAP ACCIDENT.—On Monday morning an acci- leD 10ccurred in Northgate-street. Mr Joseph Parry, Tyllwyd, Penllwyn, was driving his convey- ance loaded with passengers into Aberystwyth and when in Northgate-street, in passing a hoarding which projects into the street, came into contact with a cartload of bricks which was being taken in the opposite direction. The pole and some of the harness breaking, the front of the conveyance dropped, in consequence of which passengers sitting in front were thrown forward on to the street. Mr Parry, the driver, was dragged forward by the horses and escaped without serious injury. Of the passengers who were thrown out Mr David Penllwyn, received some injury, it is said, to his back. The others escaped with a shaking. Mr Parry, the driver, held cn courageously to the horses which had become restive. One of the passengers, who was thrown on to his back on to the road, got up and went to one horse and Mr Richard James, Brynllys, went to the other and further damage was prevented. MISSIONARY MEETINGS. — Special missionary meetings on behalf of the African Institute, Colwyn Bay, were held at the Welsh Baptist Chapel last Sunday. In the morning the Rev T. G. Williams, the deputation for Wales and Ireland, preached a powerful sermon, after which a young African student named Ayodeji Oyejola from Yorubaland spoke and sang in English. The young negro, although but twenty-one, has a good know. ledge of English. He also gave songa in his own language. In the afternoon Mr Williams and Ayodeji spoke at the Sunday School. There was a large congregation at the evening meeting when Ayodeji spoke for about half-an hour and sang African songs. In the course of his remarks, which were most interesting, he said that in Africa there was a meaning to all the names given to people. For instance, his name Ayodeji meant "double joy." He dwelt at some length upon the worship of idols by his people and said they worshipped snakes, trees, water, and even the devil. They worshipped the devil because they feared him. As a rule outside each native habitation would be found a large stone and this stone waa supposed to represent the devil. Every morning palm oil was poured on the stone, the object being "to cool his Satanic Majesty." (Laughter.) Mr Williams, in the course of his address, said the African Institute undertook the training of young Africans for missionary work in their own country. It was supported entirely by voluntary subscriptions. He referred to the fact that there was an idea that the Institute was opposed to English missionaries. This was inaccurate. English missionaries had done and would do good work, but they argued that oonverted Africans could gain more influence with the generality of their people than white Christians could. There was great need for pecuniary help at the present time, having regard to the great efforts made by Mahommetans to make the natives accept their creed. Collections were made towards the funds of the Institute. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.—Mr J. E. Hughes, M.A., Carnarvon, officiated at this Church on Sun- day. IMMATURE CRABS -,It has been decided by the Western Sea Fisheries Committee to take proceed- ings against persons from Aberystwyth alleged to have captured undersized crabs. FLOWKK Siiow.-Tlle North Cardiganshiie Horticultural Society Committee have decided to engage the minstrels and the band to take part at the annual fete in August.

CYCLING FFSTIN-Af,rhe Cycling Club Com- mittee have decided to include a bicycle race open to policemen in Cardiganshire, Merionethshire, Montgomeryshire, Breconsuire, Carmarthenshire, and Pembrokeshire, at the annual festival to be held on August bank holiday. ENGLISH BAPTIST TRIP.—The annual trip of the English Baptist Chapel took place on Thursday, the place selected being Llyfnant Valley. The trippers, who numbered about eighty, were favoured with beautiful weather. The brakes were supplied by Messrs R. Jones and Sons, North-parade. THE PROMENADE.—During the past week large shrubs of eunonymus have been placed on the Victr r- ia and Marine Terraces, and have not only a pretty effect, but do much to relieve the monotonous grey which before largely prevailed. The spring epide- mic of painting has resulted in most remarkable combinations of colour, some of which would pro- perly give an artist a fit of the blues. TRIP TO SWANSEA.—About a hundred availed themselves of the cheap day tickets on Tuesday, to pay a visit to Swansea where Barnum and Bailey's menagerie is at present exhibiting. The train was delayed a couple of hours, owing to the tunnel accident, and they were let down at Swansea Bay Station instead of the station advertised. This was, however, much more convenient, the menage- rie being close to that station. The train arrived in time for the proceedings, which were much enjoyed. GOOD TEMPLARS.—At the opening entertainment held in connection with the Good Templars Lodg on Friday evening, the following members took part :—Miss L. M. Jones, Miss Mollie Ow n, Messrs E. T Evans and G. Haydn Jones. One member was enrolled. A vote of thanks was accorded to the Earl of Lisburne for throwing open Crosswood grounds on the occasion of the annual outing of the Lodge. The invitation of the Lodge to the Grand Lodge of Wales which hold its annual meetings of next year at Aberystwyth has been accepted. MARRIAGE.—On June 19th at All Saints' Church, Great Steeping, Lincolnshire, the marriage was solemnized between Mr Charles Harry Massey, of the Town Clerk's Office, Aberystwyth, and Miss Lois Wattam of Hall Farm, Great Steeping. The bride was attended by the Misses Lizzie and Sophie Wattam, sisters, and Miss Beattie Clarke, daugh- of Mr Richard Clarke. Lodge Farm, Great Steep- ing, cousin of the bride, by whom she was given away. Mr W. F. Massey. assistant cashier of the Barry Dock Railway Co., was best man. The happy pair left for Scarborough by the mid day train. The presents were numerous. MUSICAL. -The following pupils of Mrs Charles Panchen have passed the examination held in con- nection with Trinity College, London. The exam- iner was Dr Walmesley Little and the subject was pianoforte playing. Junior division: Mollie Owen, Northgate-street, and Mabel Edwards, The Laurels. Preparatory grade: Mary E.

NARROW ESCAPE OF CHILDREN.—On Wednesday five or six youngsters, ranging in height between two feet and three and a half, climbed into a trap drawn by a horse which was on the road in George- street, the driver having left it for a few moments. Having successfully scaled the sides of the trap, they started a little horse play and made so great a disturbance as to cause the horse to move. The nippers at OTlce set up a chorus of yells which only served to make the animal go faster. Fortunately, however, the horse was not of a very wild disposi- tion and when the wheels came into contact with the kerbing it stopped and the young ones, who were considerably frightened, were able to get down.

On the North coast train arrangements are made by which a visitor can leave the Midlands about six on Saturday even- ing and be with his family at the seaside in time for supper and leave on Monday morning and be back at business about ten on Monday morning. Last week a family had to curtail their visit to Aberystwyth on Saturday because it was necessary for them to be in Birmingham shortly after midday on Monday. The Great Western Railway Company, who have done a great deal for Aberystwyth during the past few years are now doing something to mitigate that drawback, for they announce that a new train will leave Aberystweth at 8.15 a.m. which will reach Birmingham at 12-15 and Pad- dington at 3 30.
