RHYL v. CONNa H'S QUAY.
RHYL v. CONNa H'S QUAY. KEEN GAME ENDS IN A DRAW. On Saturday Rhyl had Connaih's Quay as visitors, and the match was of a very exciting character, although the scoring was not heavy. Khyl played with the wind in the first hajf. The Opening stages were very good, the homestere attacking with determination. Their shooting .was not as accurate as might have been ex- pected, the ball striking the uprigl--t --A croes-ibor several times. The visitors' defence was very good, Perm, one of the backs (although his hand was bandaged), was exceedingly smart, and assisted the goalkeeper to clear well. After Romo 15 minutes' play Connah's Quay broke away, and changed the order of things, but it did not take the home side long to clear. End to end play followed until about ten minuteis from the interval, when Rhyl forced two corners. From the last of these Lappin got possession, and, racing down on the left, beat the opposite players, centred to D. Hughes, and the latter ehot for the net right in the mouth of the goal. Penn tried to kick out, but the ball turned off his foot into the net, and Rhyl secured a point. "lay was not brisk as the interval approached, fa-mi when the teams crossed over Rhyl was boding by one goal. Thenceforward Connah's ftuay had the benefit of the wind, but it had cropped: considerably. There was a smart bit of play by Rhyl at the opening, but it did not last long, and the major portion of the second half witnessed end to end play. Both sides secured several corners, but neither was con- verted. In one of the attacks on tire Rhyl end a foul was given against the home side, and J. Jones, in trying to clear, missed his kick, giving J. Roberts a splendid chance, the latter acoring neatly. From this stege onward both sides did their best to score, and Rhyl oertainly had the best of the play, but the game ended Jn a draw of one goal each.

----------I CARNARVON v. BANGOR…
I CARNARVON v. BANGOR RESERVE. A TOUGH STRUGGLE. (By "Recorder"). Ono of the largest crowds of the season turned but to witness this match at Carnarvon o.n Satur- day. The weather was rain-threatening, and the ground in parts was very soft, as one or two of the Bangor players found to their cost. Both I teams were at full strength, being represented by the following Carnarvon: G. H. Jones; J. T Williams a.nd W. IC Thomas; J. Griffiths, M. Herbert and J. WinLuns; R. H. Roberts, Tom Roberts, W. Jones, H. Roberta and J. Jones. Bangor Reserve: Ted Owen; Fred. Lloyd and Henderson; W. Jones, T. A. Griffith and H. J. DaviM. Hughie Owen, H. Da vies, Richard Jones, Joe Thomas, and Joe Williams. Referee: Mr Browne Jones, Rhyl. Carnarvon started operations with a rush along the loft wing, but tie Bangor defence was hot to be caught napping. The visitors then ad- vanced in grand style, R. Jones being the leader, and lio parted to Joe Williams, who, however, wan pulled up for offside. The visitors, how- aver continued to attack, and Hughie Owen tetttfi the Carnarvon custodian with a swift drive. Carnarvon next took up the running, but H. Roberts handled, and spoilt the move- ment, which wm full of promise. Again Joo Will iams was placed offside, and at the ot.her end 1 Tom Roberts made a smart attempt at lowering the Bangor colours. Again Joo Williams se- cured the ball, and amid cries of "You are all right now, Joe" he dashed along the left, and parted to Hughie Owen, who sent in an elevated allot just a trifle wide. R. Jones, t.he Bangor Ben-.re-forward, was unceremoniously bowled over by J. Williams, who was playing a bustling sort of game. Tom Roberts was presented with a 1 fine chance in the neighbourhood of the Bangor gmi, but he quite failed to avail himself of a well-judged pass sent cross by J. Jones..To ih6 groat amusement of the crowd Hughie Owen dropjwl into a soft portion of <4ie ground, and rose covered with mud. BANGOK SCORE. At this stage of the game Bangor were having mailers t.heir own way, capital shots being di- itect^d at tha Carnarvon goat by Joo Thomas and U J, Davies. Receiving a pass from Joe Thomas. Hughie Da vies scored with a terrific obo& Encouraged by tha crowd, the iouiosters j made strenuous attempts to equalise, and in about a minute, R. H. Roberts, from short range, beat Ted Owen, and equalised the scores. The game now became very exciting. A melee ensued right in front of the Carnarvon goal, and the custodian came out to clear. Ho, however, was too late, and one of the Bangor forwards lifted the ball into the goal, but just as it was entering the net J. T. Williams, th full-ha:, k, fisted out. Fortunately for Carnarvon the re- feree did not see the infringement, which should have been tollowed by a penalty kick. The Carnarvor. defence were now having a warm time of it, and Hughie Davies sccred an offside goal. Tho visitors were not to be denied, and they in- dulged in a neat canoorfcod movement. The ball was transferred to R. Jones, who, how- ever, d>T3ived the defenders by letting it slip past him to Hughie Davies, who scored a really brilliant goal. The Carnarvonites pressed, and R. H Roberts, the outside right, punched the ball forward with his fist, but the referee failed to see this again. Towards the interval Tom Roberts should have equalised for Carnarvon. Half-time: Bangor, 2; Carnarvon, 1. In the first few seconds of the second half R. H. Roberts equalised with a deceiving shot. Playing towards their favourite end, Carnarvon now made matters hum, but lost innumerable chances. The Bangor left wing forced a cor- ner, which was accurately placed by Joe Wil- liams, JOE WILLIAMS HURT. who again ob'ained the ball. J. Griffith en- deavoured to tackle him, and in doing so kicked him on the head, and he was compelled to re- tire-. Playing with ten men. Bangor were placed on the defensive. The ball travelled quickly from end to end. Bangor had the misfortune to have W. Jones hurt by Ted Owen whilst he was endeavouring to clear. Carnarvon managed to score again, the final result being Carnarvon 3, Bangor Reserve 2.
ROOSTERS DROP MORE POffNTS.
ROOSTERS DROP MORE POffNTS. Conway paid a visit to Gwydr Park, Llanrwst, on Saturday, to try conclusions in the North Wales Coast League. The visitors had done very badly this season, and on Saturday they de- cided to make strenuous efforts to capture a much-needed couple of points. Several of the home team were again late when Referee Slater called the men together, and for about ten minutes they played with ten men. The visitors won t-ie toss, and Llanrwst set the ball in motion, but before proceeding a couple of yards they were neatly robbed by Atherton, who put to his outside left. The latter sent in a long shot for goal, but it was effectively dealt-with by Finchett before Ather- ton could nip in, The Conwayitcs kept up a dangerous attack for the next few minutes, and what appeared a certain goal by Craven was well saved by Grenville Jones, and cleared to midfield, but Dei Thomas committed an in- fringement of the laws, and the ball was sent back again to Finchett, and Atherton put be- hind. Another move on the part of the visiting quintette caused soma anxiety to the home de- fence, but Breeze saved the situation, for this visiting player, who was in an. excellent position, attempted to evade the ever-watchful Robert Davie Richards, who played his first game this season for the Roosters, vice Will Trevor Jones. The ball was safely placed in midfied, and a smart piece of work was witnessed on the home right wing. Hughes, the visiting custodian, was playing about his charge with the ball in his hands, when K. Elias rush in and kicked the ball out of his hands along the goalmouth. Gren- ville Jones rushed in to meet it but his attempt proved wide. One of Tom Jones' huge kicks changed the venue, and a melee resulted in the :home goalmouth. Finchett brought off a brilliant save at the corner of the upright at the expense of a corner, but this proved fruitless. The field was in a shocking condition for foot- ball, but the first half of the game proved very interesting. But the homesters finding them- selves hard pressed put on an extra effort, which penned in the visitors for some length of time. Numerous shots were made at goal, but every- one went into the hands of the custodian. Llan- rwst had exceedingly hard lines in not breaking through. They were awarded a corner kick, which, as usual, was played in the goalmouth by Ned Griffiths, and Kenrick Elias headed just over the bar. The supporters of both "Wens became excited whe.n Sam Hughes dribbled Amund .Tim .Taiim. *.r>A KaLikI 4Jki then centred to Atherton, who had nothing to do but touch the ball into the net. Finwhett. how- ever, cleverly picked up the ball from his toe, and returned it to midfied, but again the Con- wayites became aggre-sive. A terrific shot from Breese at close quarters hit Finchett full in the face, and it was again returned at a t.remendous rate by Atherton, but Finchett. although practi- cally blinded, kept his charge intact. His saves at this period were received with rounds of cheers. Half-time was called immediately after- wards with a clean sheet. THE VISITORS DRAW FIRST BLOOD. The second half of the game was well fought, and at the outset W. Owen, of Llanrwst, at full- backs, deserves a good deal of praise for his excellent defence. On Saturday he and Tom Jones tied for being the best back on the field From the kick off, Chisholm tried a long shot at goal, but the sphere stuck in the mud, and the goalkeeper had to run out to save. End to end play ensued, and Breeze, for the visitors, missed an easy opportunity when only about half- a-dozen yards away. A couple of corners were awarded the homesters, but they were of no avail. A little later, however, Norman Jones put in a nice centre from the extreme right, and Chisholm cleverly turned it into the net with his head, thus drawing first blood. At this point a humorous incident occurred. Breese, who had run back to help his dsfenco, noticed some infringement of the laws of the game, and whilst in his own area ^excueuiy shouted for a penalty kick. This shout was received with a considerable amount of laughter by everybody concerned except Breese, who soon found out his mistake. Play ruled in favour of the Roosters, but Ned Griffiths did not appear in his usual form, owing no doubt to the absence of his usual partner, Arthur Rich- ards, who has made such an excellent display during the last few matches. From midfield, Atherton tried a long shot at goal, and Finchett, who was picking up the ball, bungled, and al- lowed it to-run over the goal-line. Several who were near him at. the time state that he was several ir:ches out of goal when he attempted to pick the ball up, and that he stopped it before it rolled over. However. a goal was awarded, and the teams were brought on a level. A desperate effort was made by the Roosters to gain the lead, and three successive corners were awarded them, but each of those proved fruitless. Play now became excited, and both ends were visited in turn. The referee blew his whistle for a foul in the penalty area. against R. D. Richards, but as the ball was kicked into the net he awarded them the goal, thus giving them the' lead. T.he Roosters made desperate ef- forts to retrieve their position, but it was of no avail, and they had retire beaten on their own ground by 2 goals to 1.
---------.------LLANDUDNO…
LLANDUDNO AMATEURS v. HOLYHEAD. THE MONITE8 VANQUISHED (By "Lin-erman".) ITae match of the season was played at Llan- dudno an Saturday, when Holyhead were the visitors in the North Wales Coast League fixture. Ever since their appearance in North Walee football, the keenest rivalry has existed be-tween tiseec teams, and on Saturdlay, a veritable battle af gianitp was witnessed at the seaside town. The visitors were minus the s-arvicea of Bqgue aaid O. B. Edwards, but otherwise tocir de- fence and half-baok line were at full strength. The Amateurs 'had in he field their Surangwet elieven, and Jimmy Williams was given his first tmial, and filled the position of outside left. The teams turned out as follows: — Holjtbead: Collier (goal); Con 1 ATI and' Parry (backs); Taylor, R. C. Jones. Dick F/Llia (halif- baoks); Roberts, W- E. Jones, R. Jones. W. Brown, and Hugh Brown (forwards). Llandiucino Amateurs: R. Lunt (goal); u- H. Jonets. J. Lunt (full-baoks); Jacob Williams, Georgie Davies. and Haro'd Pearson (half- backs); W- A.

There wero a large number of spectators pre- eamt when the skippers tossed fcr choice off ends. The grand stand wias crowded with spec- tators.

The throw was passed to Conlan, and "Tiny" sent in a low swift shot, whidh migiht have proved difficult for Bob Luz4 to deal with had not Georgie Daviea been at hand. He neatly trapped tiha oval, and sent out to mid- field. This put the home forwards in motion, and they were quickly making tracks for goal, but Jdhnme's finaJ. effort skimmed the cross- bar. Atgain the Amateurs returned' to the attack, an,d Johrmie Williams breaking away, rushed through the Holyhead defence, Conlan in vain holding up his arms for offside. Collier made a good attempt to save, but the home skipper was taking no risks, and placed the ball in the connor of the met, thus scaring the only goal of the match for the ihcsnesterp. Althouglh both teams strove hard, the visitors to equalise, and the homestera to increase their leadneither side had found the net again when the interval arrived- Half-time .score, Tla-ndud- no 1, Holyhead 0- Resuming play. the Monitor set to work in earnest-, but time after time J. H. Jones would break up their attack in line style. Now and again, the visitors would advance, displaying neat combination, but their efforts proved abor- tivo through their own fault. tThe next feature of the game was a fine in- dividual effort to eoore by Johnnie Williams, but Collier, ruishing out to meet hdm, cleared wth feet.

-----FRIENDLY MATCHES.
FRIENDLY MATCHES. PWLLHELI JUNIORS v. BANGOR CORINTHIANS. The friendly match played at Pwllheli, on Saturday, between the local Junior team and Bangor Corinthians proved that the visitors have a grgat deal to learn before they can hoipo to vanquish the home team. Throughout the match, the C.-orintliiarts lacked stamina, dash, and combination. Pressure was mostly in the Ban--or territory, and the home oentre forward was irresistible when in posses- sion of the leather, and the two outside forwards also played havoc with their opponents. The hocmestens had to play ten men for a time, owing to R. Griffith having been winded. The first thing he did after recovering was to send the sphere into the net. Had not their goalkeeper been in form the score would have been more than doubled, for ho saved some splendid shots. Some of the J union; had never played in a match of this kind before, but they showed such ability that the future of the Town Club is safe..The Corinthians had two or three very good players, but they were not sufficiently sup- ported .by the others. The team, genera-llv. \y.;s too light, and inexDerienrw>d. aI'a at- i.! k nj » tau v;aaiux> of success against the home team.

Owing to the heavy rains the grouu.j was in a very heavy state. Ti e home team won the to-s, and elected to kick towards the town gcrJ. with the wind in their favour. The only incident of note in the first half was a remarkable save by Russell, for the Bayites, from a pe.nalty kick. The home team managed to score one. goal, W. Brook.?s netting successfully. Half-time arrived with tho score: Colwyn Bay 1, Bangor Celts 0. On resuming, the Celts immediately attacked and the home defence experienced an anxious time. At length R. Thomas equalised for th, visitors. The Bavites rallied, and two goals were missed in easy fashion. Just on time R. E. Jones netted the ball for the Celts, from what appeared to bo an offside position. In any ca»e, the point was allowed by the referee, ,-in i tim final result stood: Bangor Celts 2. Colwyn Bay

----------NOTES AND COMMENTS.
NOTES AND COMMENTS. VALE OF CONWAY. Poor old Roosters! Beaten on their own ground by the wooden sipooniste.. Although ad- mitting that R. D. Richards is a fine back, the injury which he recently sustair.ed to his leg whilst playing for an English team, debarred him from showing his old form. Why W. Tre- vor was left out of the eleven I can't imagine. no has been the saviour of the team on each occasion, with the exception of the previous Saturday at Bangor, when he was admittedly at fault. Still everyone is liable to make a mistake, and had he been on the field on 8atur- day, I have no doubt but that there would be a different taie to teP. » » » Of oourse, I am not minimising the work of Robert Davie, who is one of the best alround players Llanrwst. has ever produced. • » • • Joe Finchett made some brilliant t-aves during the game, but you can't get away from the fact that he lost the game for his side; when he allowed the ball to roll over the line. There is a good excuse that the ball was wet and iiiuddy amd slipped from his hand. But a, pair of gloves would have guarded against this?. W. Owen, at back, played, a. ma-rvcilous game. Owen is an erratic player, at times he is ex- cellent, but at othens a total failure. On Saturday, however, he wis in fine form, and treated the spectators to what might be described a his beat style. Robert Davie played well considering his injury, and several times got his side out of some nasty scrapee. Again the committee ohose the old half-back line, Gren. Jones, Francis Williamis, and Jim Jones. These three men have played together for years, and know each others' tactics thoroughly. Francis, who came out in harness for the fimt time, played in his old harassing style, tackling well and kicking with judgment. There was not traeh a worrier on the field as Gmnville Jones, whose antics at times caused a great deal of merriment. 13espattered with mud, he went for his opponents tooth and mil, and besides, defending, he attacked strongly. His brother, Jim, was not up to his usual form, but still he gained favour with the crowd. » # e » The services of Arthur Richards in the front line we»e sadly missed. There did not appear to be the u-ual -dash amomigst the forwards, and they were far from dangerous in front of goal. Griffiths appeared completely ket without Richards, and could not set going. On the whole the Llanrwst eleven were better than their opponents, and deserved to win. The visiting defence wag sound, and the forward line were aible to make headway, but the finishing touch was lacking. •
CARNARVON.
CARNARVON. Considering the state of the turf there was not much to grumble about in the Coast League match against Bangor Reserves on Saturday, and out of which Carnarvon had. the saii.=iao tion of extracting o couple of points. Both teamis were at full -strength, and gave an excellent show. If the citizens displayed the prettier footwork, Carnarvon were the more dashing. Still, they were lucky to obtain the ■full complement of pointe, especially as J. T. Williams, the full back, during\ne of the rushes on the Carnarvon goal, fisted the ball out. The referee, however, did not see the incident, nor did ho see the outside right punting the ball ahead whilst he was running aiong the wing. "Jt Bangor were the first to score, Hughie Da- vie." sending in a terrific shot, which had goal written all over it. Within a minute, R. H. Ro- berto equalised matters with an equally gocd shot. Though he did not actually score it, R. Jones deserves the credit of Bangor Is second goal for he put the Carnarvon defence off their guard by allowing the bail to pass him, and it reached Joe Williams, who enabled Hughie Da- vies to put in the second point for the visi- tors. It is a well-known fact that Carnarvc-n are meet dangerous when playing towards the town goaJ, and it was so on Saturday. How R. H. Roberts got his second goal is a bit of a mys- tery, but it certainly wa4s a clever piece of work. With the scores again level, both teams strove for mastery, but Bangor hOld the misfortune to loco the services Of Joe Williajns, who had a nasty kick on the head. The Carnarvon for- wards kept the visiting defence at full stretch, and before the whistle sounded they scored what proved to be the winning goal. The star performer in the Carnarvon team wae R. H. Roberts, the outside right, whose goals were gems. He did not receive much support from his partner, Tom Roberta, for whom the Bangor forwards were too smart. Though he indulged in several individual fprint.s. Walter Jones was not in his customary form. Nor was J. Jones, who of late has not shown up well. His partner was, however, very energetic. The halves were all tryers, especially J. Wil- liams^ who was here. there, and everywhere, and u^ed nis weight with great effect as one of the Bangor forwards had reason to know. J. Grif- fiths might have exercised a little more re- straint. Tho two full backs played a consistent- ly good game, and the custodian could not, be blamed for the two goals registered against him. » The Bangor forwards showed deft footwork, and were fir superior to the Carnarvon lot in v i u <?f p]ay" H" Davie» was the pick of the bunch, but R. Jones was not far behind him. Jlughie Owen was in fine fettle, although liber- ally adorned with mud; and the two Joes plaved a hard and useful game. The buive6 were plodders throughout, and the full backs also worked hard, but Fred Lloyd, tnougii Jus intentions were good, should avoid giving away unnecessary fouls. As usual, Ted Owen gave a satisfactory exhibition in goal.

GOLWVTJ BAY SPARKS. Doaoigh 4, Coiwyn Bay 2. Thus read the score at tne close cf the encounter with the i*>w wows at Denbigh, on Saturday. • The game was one of the most interesting as well as one of the "cleanest" games in which the nods have taken part. Although beaten the "Redis" were far from disgraced. It will be a very lucky team indeed that oarrics away a point from Grange-read The finst half was almost wholly in favour of the "Reds," and, with the slope in their fvollr, they gave the home defence an arn-ir^iiK • » » ■ Only ten minutes had elapsed when E. Walters scored from a. well pi-aced, corner by Moss. 11 Thus stimulated they set to work with a. will, andi did everything but score. In their attempts at the iatter they failed miserably, and openings which on other occasions would have been taken advantage of were lost. « • • » The cecopd half was a repetition cf the first, only that "the boot was on tne other leg." Den- bigh did the pressing, and- herein lies the secret of their victory-thoy shot hard, often and true, and the goaJs thev scored were thoroughly deserved. Thoy gave" Hallwood not the remotest chanoe. » • • a Reverting to the players, Hall wood wrus good ;,7 <?oai, and could not be blamed for the shots thai' him. « tt « « Hughes and 0. HT ir exceptionally good, thi^1!!3?18' at, l>K',k> ^'ere ing that he still has football iit^r*101"^ „rf. marvellous save was that of Wilii.iTii-V' a he headed away that ''scorcher" in the last minutes. • • • • The hilves wore in fine fettle, and worked like Trojans. Wcllings gave one of his best displays, and was equally wen served on either side by Walters J. Williams. Tho forward line was not up to par. "Mess" was a marked man, and this greatly disorganised the line. « McCann was obviously "riled" when his shot hit S'keleey. The bad would have found the desired haven but for this unlocked for inter- vention. « • • Tho Reserves were ako engaged on Saturday, but wha.t is the a,a of arranging fixtures of this kind when those who agitate for them fail to turn ijp ? • « » • On Saturday a ''guarantee" was paid Bangor Celts for coming down solely for the puipose of satisfying the "agitatore," yet barely half of the selected team turned out, several of them failing even to notify the secretary of their intentions. • The result was a most uninteresting game, played before few epectators. On Saturday the "Reds" play their last en- oounter of the season with Conway, at Conway in the League tournament. In view of the new lease of life which the "Blues" have had during the last fortnight the encounter should be an interesting one. » The support given Conway—no doubt in conse- quence of their bad form-has been very pcor, but I ventured some weeks ago to st4W that the "young 'uns" who were being persevered with would turn out trumps. Tho result of the last two matches bears evidence of this. -.1- The Bay team will be: C. Hallwood, goal; W. Jones and O. E. Williams, backs; Ned Griffiths, T. Well in gs and J. Williams, halves; Jones, D. H. Skelsey, T. McCann (capt.), Stanley Hughes, and J. LI. Owen, forwards. -0\ Football enthusiasts will note with pleasure the return to the field of "Neddy" Griffiths, who has made a complete recovery from his recont accident.. m » m m Great regret was felt last year because the annual match against Llanrwnst on the Riios Fields was oancolled, and many will be gratified to know that this year the fixture has been re- ins ated.

AN OVERDOSE OF LAUDANUM
AN OVERDOSE OF LAUDANUM RHYL GENTLEMAN'S MISTAKE. On Saturday, at the Town Hall, Rhvl. Mr F. Llew. Jones, coroner for i'liiKkdure, Jwld an inquest OIl the body of Mr David Cadwaiadr Vviiliams, aged 66, of 27, West-Parade, who oied eariy on Friday from the effects of an over- dose cf laudanum. Mr Dan. Jones w:u~> the foreman of the jury. Mrs Williams, widow of tr;e deceased, was the first witness called. She said the deceased was formerly an unqualified medical assistant, not done aimnirag for some time. He yeaiti, an<P4. asthma and sieeplc&sners for usually purchasing? habit of taking laudanum, a. time. On Thursday 11C two pennyworth a. day, and returned to dinner atfi about all been drinking. After tea he said he ha.d for "his drops," m-c-azi ng the laudanum,| he went out. He returned later, a.nd went up to bed. She did not atk anything about tife laudanum, as she was eo usod to his taking it, and bccause he knew what quantity formed a dose. She went to be at about eleven o'clock, and he awoke. She askod if he would have a drink cf water, and he replied in the affirma- tive, but he went off to s..2p again before she obtained some, and. she did not then disturb him. He was -br.thin.g heavily, as ho alway." did. At about four o'clock she awoke, and noticing that deceased was se-aroely breathing, she cent for Dr. Summerhill. There were two laudanum bottlw on the mantelpiece, but only one had been recently used. She had be-en told deceased had gone to the dhemist's shol) for .tho drug without a botte, and bought a new one. By a Juror: lie usually bought one penny- worth of laudanum, and sometimes I fetched it, while at other timM my daughters went for it. By Mr Pierce Lewis {who appeared for the relatives): I jumped out of bed as soon as I not,ioe-d he was breathing very lightly, ro be always breathed so heavily when elee.pimg. Mr C. R. Dixon, pharmaceutical chemist. '-3id tha.t the deceased purchased laudanum about once a fortnight, and usuady h-id one or two pennyworth, which wa. 90 or 180 minims. The usual dose was from 20 to 30 minims. Oil this occasion he asked for two pennyworth, which would be 180 minims. In reply to a question as to how much laudanum a person could take, the witness said that people got used to the dru-g, and he knew one person who could take 2 ozs. with impunity after the system had been drugged. Dr. Summerhill said he had been called to the deceased at 4.30 a.m., and found that he had been dead about ten minutes. Thee was evidence that he had taken an overdose of laudanum. He saw two -bottles on the mantel- piece which had contained. laudanum. One had 110 cork, and wa« an old bottle, while the other had a new label on it. Deoaased died from the effects of an overdose c-f laudanum. No doubt the drug had more effect on him as he bxl a weak heart and had suffered from asthma and alooholism for sume time. While persons had been known to take half a pint cf iaudanum in 24 hours, the smallest rccorded fatal dose was two drachrrs. The Coroner eaid there was not the slightest suggestion that the deoea-ed had taken his own life. The jury found that death had been due to misadventure, and thev passed a vote cC sym- pathy with the family.

PRIZE DISTRIBUTION AT LLANDDULAS.
PRIZE DISTRIBUTION AT LLANDDULAS. SCHOLARS INVESTED BY THE COUNTESS. OF DUNDONALD. INTERESTING HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL. The annual prize distribution in connection with the Llanddulas N.P. Schools took place on Friday. There was a large attendance, pre- sided over by the Rector (Rev. C. F. Roberts), who was accompanied on the platform by the Right Hon. the (Jountess of Dunckxnald and Lady Jean Cochrane, the Yon. Archdeacon Evans, St. Asaph, and Mr Hussey. INTERESTING SCHOOL HISTORY. The Rector, in opening the proceedings, said a prize day was always an unjxsrtant event in tly life of every school. It was look-ed forward to alike by so..olars, teachers and parents. We were hvuig in times when education was much talked of, and most people took an interest in it more or less. Thia was as should be, for we could not afford in these days to lay behind the other nations of the world. Foiniierlj the same interest was not taken in the matter, and even at the present time there were to be found parento who preferred paying fines to educating their children. It was 71 years ago since a bovs' school was established in Llanddulas. In 1836 Colonel Wynne, of Garthewin, built a shool, now used a., a carpenter's shop in connection with Arnold House; and placed in trust a small en- dowment for a teacher. A master was appointed, but proving very inefficient the Rector of that day wished to remove him. The master ap- pcaJcd to Colonel Wynne, and stated that he had become obnoxious to the Rector on account of his political opinions (tho master, like his patron, being a Whig, whereas the Rector was a Tory). The appeal wis listened to, and the master was granted a lease of the buildings—which had not been placed in trust—for the term of his natural life. There the matter rested fcr a while until the master was persuaded to let the school tc the Rector, at a yearly rental. A more effi- cient teacher was secured, and the school was earned on until 1862, when the ex-master died, and the further use of the premises was refused I by Mr R. W. Wynne, of Bronywsndon, but who, howcyer, granted a site for the erection of new buildings. The.*) were erected in 1863. by the exertion of trhe Rec'or (the late Rev. T. Z. Davies), who not only collected the money, but acted as architect and clerk of the works as well (bear, hear). Subsequently they were en- larged by the late Mr Bamford Hesketh, of Gw ry^h Castle, who also built a house for the teacner, and improved the girls' school. The girls' school was built and endowed in 1846 by a great friand of education—Miss Mary Crossley, of Dyffryn Dul&s. The date was a notable one, for it was the year when Bishop Short came to the diooesp. one of the ablest and best men who had occupied tho episcopal throne of St. Asaph.- and it was also the year when the Training Col- lege for Masters at Carnarvon was opened. The Bishop threw himself heart and Mul into the j work of education, and spant his entire official in- come on works in the diocese. He gave with a lavish hand towards education. By his encour- agement and support, new schools hegan to spring up everywhere, and old ones made more tfificieint. No singlo man had done more for education in North Wales than Bishop Short did, and thus it came about that St. Asaph was better equipped in the matter of Church schools than airiest any other diocese in the Kingdom. Mr Foster, the framer of the Edu- cation Act of 1870, one? said, that if the rest of the country had been as well provided with schools as the diooese of St. A^aph was. there would have been no need for that' measure. Llanddulas had been fortunate in having good benefactors. There were Colonel Wynne, Miss Mary Crossley. and Mr a-id Mrs Bamford Hes- keth. The Countess of Dundonald, whom they were pleased to see amongst them, was keeping up tho traditions of her family (applause). She had maintained the schools at Abergele and To- wyn, and had given a splendid donation of £1000 to the schools of the dioceae to enable them to put their buildings in order (applause). They nad above all been blessed with most excellent teachers. The late Mrs Lloyd was for 25 ye&rs with them, and her long service and conscien- tious work would not soon he for,ni.tx,!p T,- -a worthy successor. Mr and Mrs B. H. Jones had been with them for over 17 years, ciiid High minded teachers they were whose work was as thorough as it was conscientious. The head teachers were efficiently supported bv their staffs. The official reports which he would read was a proof of the excellent, work that was done. It had been 53.-id that schools which did well in the religious examination always made an ex- cellent performance before H.M.I., and this cer- ta-nly had been their own experionoe in Llanddu- las. They had been endeavouring to keep their buildings to meet the- requirements of the edu- cational authority, and with this end in view had recently spent over £425 (loud applause). At the Rector's invitation, the Countess of Dundcnald thnti proceeded to present the certifi- cate for religious knowledge gained by various pupils. T!iis was followed by the sirging of "O. let the kind min^i^l" by t o hnvs, and of "All hail to thee Cambria" by tht1 girls.

FNCOCR AC-IVG WORDS BY THE COUNTESS. The distribution over, the Countess said: "It has bet 11 a very great pltasu e to it» to have rjme this afTernoun amongst you all to g.ve awa, t hr, prize;. I hid no id a before I came w at a larg) number ol cjrtiiic-stea ana bccks you I have all ea.r, and I think it is a very groftt credit to yoo, to the ichool in general and t* ths teachers, that you have earned so much, a. so many rewards. These rewards represent great deal of hard work on the part P of teachers who inst-uct you; that point you m never overlook. Yoy may think it a troublesome thing to learn, and come here cold mornings when you would much rather f in bed. Your teachers have aJso their firoub. They have to teach always for long hours, ( as soon as they have taught you to be as 1. feet as the school can make you, they bave begin over again. Their work is always r greasing, and in that way is very troublesome them. It is a great encouragement to tt when you do well, and when you earn prizes condtict-, industry, and neatness. The results be greatest felt by you in y^>ur after lift conclusion I hope you may all work as well t year as you have in the past, and if, at a time, I come again amongst you, I hope that many will have earned prizes as to-day. It 1 betvri a great pleasure to me to have come and see so many present (applause). THANKS. Venerable Archdeacon Evans then said: Al1", me, as a sleeping-partner* in ttie management 1 the schools of Llanddulas, to propose. a heart vote of thanks to her ladyship for ooming ht to distribute the prizes 10 you (applause a laugnter). We are exceedingly obliged to bt and ought to be very proud to have a disdu. guished lady amongst ui who takes suoii an it terest in education. Whether there is any goo work to be done in the shape of opening bazaar or oonnecteci with schools her ladyship is alwa) to the front. The parish of Abergele is a la. one, and is inhabited by large farmers, an ù: teliigent class of artisans and shop-keepers. Frot. the coming of the School Board in 1870 onward education in tie parish has oo-t L300 a year t, Le Gwrych family. If you add this together < makes up a total of 1;20,000 towards the edi cation of Abergele (applause). The farmers ar; the tradesmen in the town were all ed'icatcd the National Sc'iools at Abetgele, and the cons-' que,nee is that Gwrych Castle contributions hif t-and h-3 rates at Abergele to the extent of 46 least £ 20.000 There was no other school, all they have all been educated there. Yet iia% e mver heard a complaint made. There. b& been no proselytising, and when Mr Hanus Lewis cr Mr Lewis went to examine them in r*> ligicus education, I don't think one 4child withdrawn from the religious instruction class We have heard a great deal of the three W reading, 'riting, 'rithm-etic. I would like anoint- "R" added—that of religion (hear, hear). R( ligion is to shape our course in this and th. after life, and is surely of as much importance a any of the other subjects (hear, hear). n. Archdeacon clos-.d with a few words of instruc- tion to the children. Mr Hussey seconded, and the Chairman sup ported, and said there is hardly a Churei school in Wales which ihae not received hel from Gwrych Castle. At the call of the Archdeaoan, the children gave her ladyship three hearty cheers, three fo- the Rector for presiding, and three for the ter and teachers. Two of the infants g: eally delighted the auc ience by the musical sketch, "Where are yo going to, my pretty maid?" At the clo3e the children were all given a orange and sweets, the prize-winners also bein Presented with new half-pennies by the Arci, deacon.
