RHUDDLAN PAHISH COUNCIL MARSH ROAD TO BE ATTENDED TO. OPINIONS ON THE SMALL HOLDINGS ACT. A meeting of the Rhuddlan Parish Council was held on Monday evening. Mr W. Jones (chairman) presided, and there were also present: Messrs H. Barnett, Joseph Roberts, Robert Evaos, R. Owen, H. Edwards, John Roberts, I-lew. Lloyd, and J. Kilner (clerk). THE MARSH ROAD FOOTPATH. I A letter was received from Mr A. Foulkes, agent to the Kinmel Estate, with respect to the footpath leading from Marsh Inn to Vine Cot- teges, pointing out that it waB the duty of the Parish Council to repair and keep all public footpaths in order. Mr D. Mac. Nicoll, agent to the Bodelwyddan Estate, also wrote to the effect that he had not seen the petition sent to the estate, but if the Council would let him know what was desired in connection with the road he would see what could be done. Mr L. G. Hall, water engineer. Rhyl, wrote that he had given instructions to have the rood by the Marsh Hotel attended to without delay, as regards the water mains laying. The Chairman said he had met Mr Mac. Nicoll on the footpath, azid pointed out what. was required to be done. He promised to see Mr Foulkes, on behalf of the Kinmel Estate, to see w; at could be done to the footpath. Mr Jos. Roberts said Mr Mac. Niooll bad "received the committee very well, and was per- fectly reasonable and honourable with them." It was pointed out that the Rhyl Council had damaged the road, but that the Pariah Council had full power to repair the footpath. The Chairman added that the Rhyl Council had cut up the road, and had not had time to reinstate it. According to Mr Hall's letter the work would be done, and, as a matter of fact, the work was now being carried out. Mr John Roberts said tue tooipath used to be on the left hand side, but now they wanted it placed on the right. The Chairman thought that the wishes of the people should be considered. Mr Jos. Roberts felt that it would be safer on the right hand side. Mr Evans said he thought that the Kinmel Estate should lay pipes in the ditch. The matter was left in abeyance, awaiting Mr Mac. Nicoll's interview with Mr Foulkes. A LETTER-BOX. A letter was read from the Postmaster, Rhyl, stating that the Council's application for a new letter-box on the Rhyl-road would have due con- sideration. FOOTPATH DIVERSION. With regard to the suggested diversion of the footpath from Rhuddlan to Bodelwyddan, Mr Foulkes, agent to the Kinmel Estate, wrote that Mr J 1 Mr Barnett did not ¡, think that the Council had decided to divert the footpath. Mr John Roberts p.oposed, and Mr Llew. Lloyd seconded, a vote of thanks to Mr J. O. Hughes for preparing plans of the proposed di- version free of cost. Mr Joseph Roberts said that the Council were all of one oolour, but the day might come when the Council would be of a different oolour (laughter). T.he Chairman: No politics. Mr Barnett: I obi^ nolitice or colour being brought into local affairs. Mr Joseph auued that he objected to the diversion without going to quarter sessions, as he understood that the Council could be surcharged the cost of the work. The Chairman: We will leave it alone now, as the landlord has given permission. SMALL HOLDINGS. A letter was read from the clerk to the Ccunty Council, pointing out that the Small Hcldings Act came into force on June 1st, and requiring that applications for small holdings t.e san in at once. Mr John Robert,, said he thought a parish meeting should be held. The Chairman remarked that he did not think the A&?e ^°unc^ could take other steps to bring Mr Llew, said that the young people were more vjck football on Satur- oavs fcnan to go diggm0.

CHARGE AGAINST A LLAN-J RWST…
CHARGE AGAINST A LLAN-J RWST PUBLICAN. SUMMONED FOR PERMITTING DRUNKENNESS. ALLEGATION AGAINST A POLICE CONSTABLE. At the Llajirwst Police Court on Monday, be- fore Col- Saaidbaoh and other magistrates, John Roberto, the lioenow of the Red Lion Inn, was summoned by P.C Holgat-e for selling intoxica- ting liquor to a drunken person, and aleo with permitting drunkenness. Mr R. 0. Davies ap- peared ior the police, Mr J. E. Humphreys de- iended, and Mr 'E. A. Orabbe. Abeirgale, watch- ed the case on beihalf of Messrs Alioopp's, the ieeaees of the house- Mr Davies said that on the 30th of last monibh P C- HoJgute, accompanied by P-C. Jones, visited the Red Lion about 6.30 p-m., and in one of the rooms saw Robt. Davies (who had been convicted that day) drunk, and having in his hand a glass parttly filled with beer. The lioenoee's wife denied having served Davies, but the latter's daughter, Mrs Pieroe, who was standing by, said: "Yea you did servo him." Just then the d-.deiidaiA himself came on the soeme, and turning to Davies said: "It is too bad of you earning here and drinking other peo- ple's beer." Upon that Mirs Pierce paid, "He Av not drinking anybody else's beer- You know it is Ibis own beeir, and has been paid for." The lioancoe then ordered Davies out, and he went. With regard to the cih-axg-e of Belling, it wafl alleged, that a man named Keegan had1 t)nen served- P-C- Hoigate corroborated the foregoing •Jtabemerst, and added that when he called Mrs IbDborts attention to Robert Davies she said, "He has not bean served hero." He noticed Keegan Bitting in a dhair by the fine with a flAaw of beer in front of him. Witness asked 11 Keegan had been served- He said "No," and 4iben took away the beer from him. When Keegan waa ordered out, the latter said1, "Not uratal I have had my beer. You have been paid for it, and I am going to drink It." Wibem Roberts charged Davies with drinking other people's beer witness diJ toot see anybody staaadkng by without a drink- Witness called1 the attention of the defendant to two men wiho had had sufficient, and he or- itered them out—Cnogs-examined, witness said he was certain that the landlord was not in the parlour before him. He went back to the house late in the evening, and said that he would report hin), P.C. John Josnes, who accompanied Hoigate to the Red Lion, paid Robert Davies was drunk in the room- Witness corroborated the evidence of P.C. Hoigate as to the oopivetrfiatiom which took plaoe between the police and the *nd his wife inside tho house.—Cross-examined, and his wife inside ilfue house.—Cross-examined, •be witness 6aid he did not hear the say fcnat he had refused Keeg-airl previously. and had turned him out. Davies, in his opinion, was too da-wnk to answer for himself. John Williams, River-terrace-, said he was at the Red Lion. Davies was served by Mrs Ro- boubs with a glass of beer and his daughter with K-t wine- He heard the constable aok Mrs beirbs whether she had served Davies, and she replied1 in the (negative. Keegan was edt- taoig dowin for a short time and a man named Ohas- Storey fetched him a glass of beer.— Cross-examined, he did not hear Davies remark flndt the l&ndlkjrd had earlier in the day refused bo serve him. Keegan was the worse for drink Man fiero, bcottand street, said she. accom- panied her father,. Robert Davies, to the Red Lion <« ^be night of the 30th ult. Her father oailed for drinks, and a young man from Car- narvon saad that whatever they called for he was going to pay for it. Her father had a pint of beer and she had a port wine. Mrs Ro- served the dirinks- When Johdi Robea*te cam/9 to the room after the police arrived he said to bar tamer "It is a shame for you to come here wid srteak other people's drinks," and witness hepbed, My father^ is not drinking other' peo- ple S pints. It IB his own drink paid' for by a pooing mam from Carnarvon, and served by Mrs feoberta. Her father was very drunk going out. [^tar in the evening witness saw Mrs Roberts, td. the Red lion, an J sih/e said that witness was mry Ifoolish to tell the police that she served her father, and she replied that it was right for bM- to speak the truth because she would not hnve Mr Roberts say that ber father took other people's pints of beer. Upon that the defendant game up and asked his wife, "Did -u serve Robb.^Davies ?" and she said. "Yes, I did with a Elaas- Then Roberts said, "That's enough- net it stand like tha&- "Cross-examined witneas kaid she stayed with her father while lie got two pints. It was not a faot that she got frightened for fear somebody dha,rged her father with stealing- the beer. Mr R. O. Davies at this point said there was another case which occurred later in the even- ing. Supt. WOOD-am said that at 10.55 on same Higm m irifilted the Red Lion, and heajal scone- one shouting in the yard. He went thoro, and found a man named Ed. Williams in a drunken state. The only way that that man could get to the yard was through the house, and past the bar. He did not think the landlord knew that he was there. This was the caee for the prosecution. THE DEFENCE. For the defence, Mr Humphreys said they did not deny the fact that Keegan and Davies were drunk, but what they did deny was that there was any service from the bar to either Df the men. It was a very busy evening, and » groat many people were being served1- Mrs Kdbertfe was more or less doing the cellar work, and a kind of barmaid was looking after the parlour, where the men were seen. Keegan was turned from the bar, and whilst Mr Roberts was busy, he managed to slip in to the parlour through another door without Roberts noticing aim. John Roberts, liooncee of the Red Lion, said that on the night in question the policc were frequently in and out of his ilouse. A man ftamed Storey came in, and called for three finte of beer, and he took them into the parlour rmself. While Storey took the drinks into the room a man named Griff., on the other side of the bar counter asked Storey whether he would have a drink, and he replied that he would have fc pint. Storey stopped talking to Griff. for pome little time, but in the meantime Mrs Pierce came in, and Storey paid for a port wine 5or her. When Keegan came to the bar witness told him that he was drunk, and turned 'l'"l"T", put. witness aid not notice Keegan going into The house a second time, but a Mrs Williams irew hie attention to the fact that Keegan en- tered 'by the front door. Witness immediately followed Keegan for the purpose of turning him but, as he admitted that he was drunk. P.C. Helgate said to witness,- "That man (referring jo Keegan) is drunk," and he replied, "I know he is drunk. I am turning him out. He has pot been served." The next thing he saw was Robert Davies behind the door, and witness touched him on the shoulder and asked whose heer he was drinking? He had a pint glass in his hand, and he would drink the beer, although Witness had hold of his shoulder. He asked the pther young men who had giver beer to Robert Pa^e8'Jand Ho]Sate eaid, "It is not fair for the landlord. You are running the risk of him los- ing his licence." Witness absolutely denied terving Davies and Keegan. Later on in the evening, Hoigate came up to witness and said that Keegan had been locked up. Witness re- plied that he did not serve the man. Cross-examined, Defendant said the police did not draw his attention to anybody in the bar. rho statemente of the constables on that point were not true. The bar was very quiet, and he pad no occasion to order two men out. P C Holgate told him on one occasion, "You and the other house are spotted houses." He denied having been cautioned previously by the police. Hoigate had visited his house a few times but he had not always been coanpos mentis
ALLEGATION AGAINST THE POLICE
ALLEGATION AGAINST THE POLICE Colonel Higson: That is a direct charge igamst the officer. Witness: I do not think he was perfectly sober fi-hen he came to my house on two or three >ecasions, and because I told him so, he is tigainst me. When do you say that the constable was under (he influence of drink in your house?—I could lot tell you. Give me an occasion as near as you ca.n ?-Oh, loveral occasions. Several?—About three times I should say. Give me the first occasion?—I could not give Bates. He came in the house in such a flurried (vay and said, "Roberts, you don't know how to bok after your house." I replied that I was Vying to oonduct the house in the best possible fav. Did he say anything else to lead you to think alat?-NO; he said, "You don't try to help the ?olioe." Amd from that you took it he was &ujlk ? A fcan like me in the business for twelve years high* to know.—I do not say he was drunk but was under the influence of drink. And the way he walked out led you to believe iie was in drink ?-Undoubtedly. I have not the lightest doubt about it. Continuing, Witness said tihe first t he sus- pected him to be drunk was in Scotland-street, Vhere a row was taking place. He was not in trink on the second occasion. ^Colonel Higson said on the first occasion de- fendant noticed the constable in drink, then the tecond ooca.sion Holgate visited the house, but Ie was not in drink, then the third occasion he told that the officer was the worse for drink. IVas that oonneot ? Colonel Sandbadh: I don't tSink this has much 0 do with the case. Mr R. O. Davies: I think it has everything to lo with the case. It is a. serious allegation igainst this constable, who is a witness for the prosecution, and not only that, but the defend- ant said that the officer was in drink, and be- taose of that he was incapable of doing his duty properly. He also charges the officer with committing perjury. In reply to further questions, witness said he never heard Mrs Pierce say that her father's drink had boon paid for. The police must have seen Keegan tuirned out of the bar, and they enter the front door. He had been here before on a similar charge previously. It was a tech- nical offence, and he was fined 2s 6d and costs. There were two convictions for permitting drunk. enness. Charles Storey said that he ordered three pints of beer himself. Keegan entered the parlour when he (witness) was carrying the pints into the parlour. Witness asked Robert Davies to have a drink, and he said: "They refused me this afternoon; they won't let me have one." Replying to the CSmiTmom, the witness said that Keegan was in the room a minute only before the constables arrived. Colonel Higson: Who served you with the port wine ?-The landlord himself. Evidence of a similar character was given by John Daly and Jane Williams. Sarah Roberts, the wife of the licensee, said that she was very busy on the evening i ques- tion, three serving from the bar. She saw Keegan put out of the bar door, and then make his appearance in the parlour. She denied the statement of Mrs Pierce, and was quite sure she did not serve Keegan or Davies t-ujt night.— Cross-examined, the witness said she was quite sure she served Mrs Pierce with a port wine. She did not rftmembor having a conversation subsequently with Mrs Pierce. Jane Griffiths, a barmaid at the Red Lion, also gave evidence. The magistrates retired for consultation, and on their return, the Chairman ca4d thav had decided, by a majority, to convict the defend- ant of permitting drunkenness, and the decision also by a majority was to infliot a fine of f 5 and costs. Mr Humphreys applied that the magistrate? not record the convioticn because they had done away with the more serious charge of selling. The Chairman: I am fraid we must refuse your application. Mr R. O. Davies applied for an advocate's fee and witness' allowances, and this was agreed to. The Chairman: The case of serving Keegan and Davies is dismissed.

FOOTBALL. BANGOR RESERVE v. BEAUMARIS. FALL OF THE LEADERS. (By "Recorder.") This holiday fixture at Bangor on Christmas Day attracted a record crowd, a large contingent ooniing lxomi Beaumaris. The grand stand was paracticaiily monopolised by sunnotrtesrs of the vistting1 team, to whom the result of the match was of gireat importance- The teams voere:- Ba-ngor Reserve: Ted Owen; Henderson, Fred Lloyd; T. A. Griffith, H. J. Davies, W- Jones, Smith, H. Owseotx, R. Janes H. Davies. and E. Lloyd J. Beaumaris: Jones; George Williams. W. E. Edwards j Hugh Rowlands, W. Davies, Owen Owen, R. Humphreys, E. Bellwood, W. Hum- phreys, S. Pool and J. Morgan Jones- Retferee, Mr Browne Jones, Rhyl- Beaumaris started well, and looked like scor- ing early, Sam Poole being very active. Bangor however, soon found their feet and away sprin- ted tffie rigfbt wing in grand style- The outside man diddled Owen Owen and Edwards, amd then Georgie Williams made a hash of a clear- ance, and the Bangor man clean defeated the custodian- The Bangor forwards settled down to a steady, persistent game, and in a few min- utes H. Davies put on No. 2 with his head. Beaumaris now pu.t in a spell of pressing, but they could,- not overcome the fine defensive game of the Bangorians. THE THIRD GOAL. Hhte Banigor forwards then advanced in a tine, and Edgar Jones whipped acrcep a capital shot, Huigihie Owen noi having the sligihitest difficulty j/n putting in tihe third goal- This damped the ardour of the Beaumaris supporters wttich had found its expression in frantic yeflls, but it was revived Bhortly afterwards by a grand save by their goalkeeper, who kept out a shot with goal written all over it. The exchanges were now more evert, Beaumaris, if anything, having most of the game. Baogor, however, managed to score again after the cupfcodian had made a partial save- It was H. Davies who sent in, aod though Jones succeeded in handling the ball he could not stop it crossing the line. Beaumaris indulged in spasmodic rushes, but the string had been takem out of their play by the four adverse goals- During one of the at- tacks Henderson performed the unusual feat of t/eadhng tihe ball into James"-street. Whilst Dick Jones was wandering whether he would Shoot in or diddle an opnonont, ho was bowled over, fcje claimed, inside the penalty area, but the referee thought otherwise, and nothing came of the free kick. The Bangor outsidIe- right proved a ttfiorn in tihe sides of the Beaumaris defence, and consequently he became a marked man- Half-time Bangor Reserve 4, Beaumaris mil. Basgor had to laoe a stiff wind in the second' half, in which the Beaumaris ousstodian was the first tcr be tested. Then Henderson provoked a fuanre of derivise cheers by kicking out when bard pressed- AN AMUSING INCIDENT. A remarkable incildent then occurred in the Bangor goal. Someone sent the ball in and Ted Owen, the custodian, captured it, but be- fore he could clear three or four opponents were on top of him, and whilst they kicked and struggled Ted hugged thie ball amd kept his head on the ground. The reieree stopped the game, apparently believing- that Ted had been injured but ihIe oame up,smiba-. and the referee threw the bail up. Encouraged by the cried of their sunrxxriere, Beaumaris bucked up, and Ed- wards, wlho was shifted' to the half-back line, sent in a decent shot- Thein W. Humphreys 'Cd along in lids best greyhound style only to ^sne to a suddem stop when he encountered with HeindietrBofti- The Beaumaris custodian again had a a sudden stop when he encountered with Hen- derson. The Beaumaris cuptodian again had a chance oi showing his capabilities, and he out otf tihe ordeal with flying colours. W- Hum- Pilreys amd T. A. Griffith got at loggerheads, toe Bangor player being penalised, atnd from the neeukant free-kick, W- Ivd war cite almost scored with a terrific ground shot. The game veered fm- end to end. After fooling Hender- son, E. Bellwood finished up badly. Try as j e forwards could not get beyond the Bangor full-backs- During the last fifteen iramut-ee the Bangor forwards con- tinually raided the Beaumaris goal, but R. Jones ajiid Edgatr Jones missed chances of augmenting the score, though the outside right found the net be-one the end of the game which finished Bangor Reserve 5, Beaunlaxie nil.

Nevertheless, them was a fair attendance of epoota,tors at line kick-oil, which increased ap the game progressed- Botal teams were below full strength, and had to rely to a great extent on reserve men. The players lined up under Re eree A. Meirs on tihe following order: — Saturdays: C. Hailwood, "v>al H. Hughes and O- iz. \yJliame, backs; E. Griffiths W- H. Hugjea, afta- w T.

Hughes, halves; T. Richardson, h. Huglhes, W. R. Brookes, Bobby Ellis, and T. D. Roberts, forwards. From the start it was evident that the wind would not allow of accurate play. and the open- ing was of a scrambling nature- The Wednes- day's had the assistance of the wind in tihe first hlalf, and although they came desperately near the mark on several occasions, they failed to sooire. In the second pcirticin the "Saturdays" monopolised1 the play, and goals were scored in their favour by "Neddy" Griffiths and D. H. Skelsey. Time was called with the score two goals to nil in favour of the "Reds," Nothing was mare acceptable to both players and specta- tors than the final whistJe. which brought to a conclusion the most mediocre exhibition seen on the Rhos Fields-

Heoeiving a nice pass from Brown, Ned Jones equalised. Bangor responded, and for a few moments the Y.M.O.A. defence were busy, but the home forwards soon reasserted themselves, and Brown had extremely hard lines from scoring. A fine piece of defensive work by W. Llewelyn Griffith, set the home forwards going again, and the right wing car- ried the play into the visitors' quarters. R. Roberts giving to R. Davies enabled him to put the homesters one ahead. A penalty was awarded against Bangor, which the home pivot made no mistake in converting. R. Davies scored the homesters' fourth goal, and time arrived with the scores standing, Llandudno Y.M.C.A. 4; Bangor Amateurs 1.
