TO WHOM IS THE HONOUR DUE? Councillor William Davies, of Colwyn Bay, asks us to publish the appended letter, which he has addressed to our Colwyn. 13av contemporary. He says we may mention the fact that the "Pioneer" is 11-t iticltided amongst the news- papers to which he refers at the out-set: — SECOND COWLYD WATER MAIN AND CREDIT TO WHOM IT IS DUE. (To the Editor of the "Weekly News. ) Sir,—My attention; has been drawn by several ratepayers to ail article in *ho "Weekly News" dated 15th ult., but it was only last week that -J read the part in reference to the above head- ing, and I illiast acknowledge that it puzzles me how anyone with any knowledge of the matter, c*u id write in such a strain. II e Jiear a great deal in these days of the "colour"' of the public press. It is to me, and na.s been for many years, very evident that it is a difficult thing for a pub- lic møJl to do his duty impartially to the xale- payers, and get credit for doing so, unless he is able and willing to put his hand in his pocket. Some of these men take little or no interest in tilings which are of importance- to the ratepay- r, though they are supposed to be there in the ratepayers' interest. I used to think a, gco-u dbul of public newspapers, but my opinion has' changed considerably 01 late years. I have cjme to the conclusion that pi-essmen are but human, and like racehorses, are running; and kept going for the benefit of their proprietors, and tnose connected with them. This touting article to me appears very misleading, to say the least, and it you will allow me I will quote your own "words in that article, and also the proceedings at the GoJwyd Board, giving the correspondence that has passed between the two boards with re- gard to the new second main. I do this for the benefit of the Colwvn Bay ratepayers, and mere particularly for those whom I represent, and other wards, which are affected directly- You say — "Some of the C'ohvyn Bay members, no less desirous that Mr Dicken to serve the best interest of the town showed a very unfortu- nate tendency to irritate rather than conciliate the fooling of the representatives -of other dis- tricts, and were they allowed to continue their policy, Cohvyn Bay "might still be yearning in vain 'for its improved1 water supply, which is now almost an accomplished! fact. It was Mr Dicken s policy which wrought the desired change in the attitude of the opponents of the fschenie, and we believe in giving honour whero honour is due." If so, we both agree, and I assure you that 1 do not want to take away from Mr Dieken any credit due to him. I believe you have been al- ready told by thoso in the know that your article has caused a sensation, and that they could not read it through. However, with your permission, I will lay the facts before the pub- he and let the readers judge for themselves. I was first elccted 011. the Cowlyd Board before flic iirst main was put down in 1S97. From that time until 1905, except one year. I served on that body- I was again elected for last year, 1807, and was the only one not re-elected this year. I (and others) take it that you refer to myself, as the one who irritates the members or other districts; still I cannot understand1 why you 'should got out of your way to discredit me in this manner, when the correspondence proves that the power for the new main was obtained on 24th September, 1907, at which time I was a member of the Cowlyd Board. I cannot help but complain again* of this and similar actions on the part of the "Weekly News1' against mo during some years, and I am now wondering whether this is part of the policy which has been adopted by those members of the Council, who d'eclared a few months back that they would make the Council Chamber too hot for me, and that I would very soon be glad to retire from the Council. However* I shall trust the rate- payers to decide that matter. Moreover, you will also and that the- sanction of the Local Government Board is not due entirely to "the Cowlyd Board members, but to the Cohvyn Bay and Cohvyn Sanitary Committee, through it-s then chairman; to the efficient work of our clerk, Mr Amphlett, and to the help of Mr J. Herbert Roberts, M.P. The facts were as follows -Tlie. Cowlyd Board applied to the Local Government Board for this second main in 1902. On the 6th June, 1903, after a public enquiry, the Cowlyd Board re- j eeive-d the following letter from the Local Go- vernment Board:— '.11hA Twwrnt Board havirtpr con- side red the report of their inspector, will be prepared to determine the question if the con- stituent authorities and the Joiut Board agree by their decision." It is well-known that the authorities could not agree for years, and the next time they ap- o y proached the Local Government Board was on July 12th, 1907, when they did agree together, after pressing demands in the year 1906 from Cohvyn Bay and Colwyn, Sanitary committee (through the Council), which had convinced the Cowlyd Board that this had become an urgent matter for us and for other districts. So I take it you have been misinformed and mislead entirely. The answer from tho Lccal Government Board to Mr T. E- Parry, the Clerk of the Board, on August 29th, 1907, was as follo)i-s:- "Sir,—I am directed by the Local Govern- ment Board to advert to your letter of the 12th ult. with reference- to the proposal of the Conway and Cohvyn Bay Joint Water Supply Board to lay a new pipe 15 inches in diameter from the Cowlyd' Lake into tho constituent district, and I am to state that the Board have referred to their earlier papers, and find that under the agreement with the proprietors of the Cowlyd Lake, the Joint Board are only entitled at the present time to use a main 12 inches in diameter from the break pressure tank. Hence it would seem that this Board would not. be in a position to take any action in the direction of sanctioning a loan for the proposed' now 15 inch pipe until some further agreement has been arrived at with the pro- prietors. In the circumstances there would appear to be no practical advantage in the at- tendance of the deputation at this office at the present stage. At the same time, the Board may state that they consider that, when an arrangement has been come to with the pro- prietors of Cowlyd Lake, as regards the pro- posed new pipe, fresh notices under Section 32 (aa extended by Section 34) of the Public Health Act, 1875, should be given, seeing that the previous notices given so long ago as 1902.-1 am, your obedient servant, NOEL KERSHAW." Being at Conway in tho oflice of the CoivlvrT Board, the above letter was put into my hand. I road it, copied it, and brought my copy home. Knowing perfectly well that the Cowlyd Beard owned the lake and all thei surrounding water shed, I tried to get someone in the Council meetifig to move in the matter (I was not able to attend myself), and they were told that it w as a matter for the Coii-lyd Board by our represen- tatives on that Board, which did meet for three weeks, viz., October llth, 1907. Having considerable practical knowledge of 14 such work, and knowing the danger of dela I became a little alarmed, as every day lost then made it more impossible to get the work com- pleted to supply us in the height of the 1908 sea- Bon. I pressed hard on Mr Amphlett, our worthy elerk, to write to the Local Government Board to explain matters, but he did not like to do so, as it was the business of the Cowlyd Board- I knew this, but at the same time felt that the die- lay would have serious consequences for cur dis- trict. I then deed Mr Amphlett if he would write on the authority of the chairman of the Sanitary Committee, for I knew I had their support. This he agreed to do, and on Septem- ber 13th, 1907, drafted an excellent communica- tion, a copy of which I here append: "Sir,—I am urgently directed to again call your attention to the question of the water supply into this district, which is a, constituent district of the Conway and Colwyn Bay Joint Water Supply Board. It appears that the Joint Board communicate.d with your honour- able Board asking that a deputation from the Joint. Beard be received so that the matter the water supply might be gone info. On the 2!h.Jl August, it appears that the Clerk of the Joint Board received a reply from tho Local Government Board, which clearly shows that your Board have not quite grap-eci the situation- It is true that at the time the Joint Board was formed a.n agreement was entered into with the then proprietors of the lake, viz., the Ear] of Ancasier and others, and the Joint Board which agreement you evidently have before you. Subsequent to tho agreement, however, tho Joint Board have acquired by purchase the whole of the Cowlyd Lake, in- cluding the water shed and the Joint Water Board' now are the 'proprietors.' It is true there may be questions of reparian ownership below the lake, but it is submitted! that the Joint Board, having acquired the interests of the grantors to the deed of agreement to which you refer, the conditions of that deed are extinguished. The conveyances to the Joint Board are absolutely clean conveyances, enclosed I send you copies thereof. "The c-onadition of the water supply to this di-striet is becoming very serious indeed, and the Council view with alarm the state of affairs next summer unless tho supply is augmented by laying a further 12-inch main from the intake into the CoJwyn Bay district. •j ,!l'i.s main will "take some con- siderable* time, and I am requested to urge the Loeal Government Board to at once reo- ceive a deputation of the Joint Board, and also, if necessary, a deputation from the Coun- cil, with the view to the sanction of the Board being given to commence laying the additional main forthwith. As your honourable Board! is aware the matter has been delayed for a great number of years in consequence of the consti- tuen.it authorities failing to agree to aocept the decision of the Local Government Board as to who should pay for thei additional main. Now, however, the decision of the Joint Board to lay the new main is an unanimous one, and this Council most respectfully requests the Local Government Board to expedite the matter as far as possible—I am, sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) JAMES AMPHLETT, The Secretary, Clerk. Local Government Board, Whitehall, S.W. In about, a week's time, the following letter was received from the Local Government Board sanctioning the loan without further delay. 1 wish to say that Mr Amphlett also wrote to Mr J. Herbert Roberts, M.P., asking him to call at the Local Government Board's Office, and support our claim. In effect we were able in this way to throw the responsibility on the Local Government Board, if there was any scarcity of water. 1 oliowmg is the Beard's letter referred to above:—■ Whitehall, S.W. 24th September, 1907- "Sir,—I am directed by the Local Govern- ment Board to advert to their letter of the 29th ult. with regard to the proposal of the Conway and Cohvyn Bay Joint Water Supply B;Q.r{ to lay a. new pipe, 15 inches diameter, and I a.m to sta,te- that the Board have since received a letter from the L'rban District Council of Colwyn Bay and Cohvyn in refer- ence to this matter, and have looked further into the question of tho power of tho Joint Board to lay the additional main. As a result- of this investigation, the Board have decided to issue an order allowing the construction of the proposed works. Their formal sanction will be forwarded to you shortly.—I am, gir, vo-ur obedient servant, NOEL KERSHAW, Assistant Secretary. T. E. Parry, E(1. As far as I am aware, the only "irritation" 1 caused the members was copying the letter 1 have spoken of, and getting a letter written direct to the Local Government Board without waiting three weeks to see if the Cowlyd Board would take action. It was a warm half-hour 1 got when ye first met afterwards as a Board, and this wa^ apparently to the great delight ot the Colwyn Bay and! Cohvyn representatives who had not a word to say in my aefence for the part I took ill securing this concession for the district. However, T am proud of the part I took, and the credit, if any, should be put on tho right person or persons. I believe we would lie only talking about having the new main now if Mr Amphlett s letter had not been sent at that time. 1 trust you will allow this letter to appear in your next issue as publicly as tho article of the 15th ult. I shall not probably take the trouble to correct your errors in tho future, but in this in- stance, I believe a little off the honour belongs to others whom I much respect, and not to the person you refer to-—Believe mo. yours truly, WILLIAM DA VIES.

UNSEEMLY CONDUCT IN A CHURCH. At the above police court, were present Dr. R'Jb. Roberts (chairman), Messrs J. Vaughan Williams, W. P. Evans, Wm. Owen, Robt. Roberts, Plas Meini, J. Cadwaladr, and D. 1\-gid Jones. EXCISE PROSECUTION. Mr D. A- Silver, Excise Officer, summoned Dr. Richard Jones, Isallt, Biaenau, for having kept a carriage and with having employed' a. male servant without licence. Mr W. R. liaiiibliii, supervisor of Inland Re- venue, Criccieth, conducted the prosecution, and Mr R. 0. Davies defended. Mr Hamblin s-aid that defendant did not take out the licences until April 18th. Dr. Jonee had been reminded; on several occasions that he had not renewed tho licences. Mr Davics said that Dr. Jones had made the declaration on January 2nd and 3rd, but, being a^very busy man. he had. overlooked the matter a tier wards- ii-u {Mr i>a.v,tee> not under- why defendant had been singled out, al- though he acknow ledged that Mr Silver had seen Dr. Jones om several occasions. Mr Davies ask- ed the Bench to deal with the defeiidant under the First Offenders' Act. The Commissioners had expressed their willingness to forego proceedings on payment of 30s. But- the accused refused to accept the offer as the amount was too much. Aof 2s 6JI and costs was imposed. WITHOUT A DOG LICENCE. Mr Silver summoned Ellen Roberts. 1, Peny- bryn terrace, who, when charged with having kept a dog without a licence, pleaded that she had lost the dog she Iliad last year, and for which she held a licence, and that she believed that the same licence would cover the new dog she had1 since. 1: It was stated that defendant had taken out a licence, a.nd she was lined 2.1> 6d without costs. OPPOSITION TO A TRANSFER. Mr lV. II. Jonee, son of the late licencee of Shop-j r-llaii, B la-en a i;, asked for the transfer of the lioen-ee to himself. Mr R. 0. Davies ap- peared for the applicant. The Temperance Party opposed, and were re- presented by Mrs Moi-ris, Revs- John Hughes, R. R. Morns, G. Daviop, David Jones, D. IIos- kins, Silvii Roberts, J. W- Davies, and Thomas Hughes. Mrs Morris cross-examined the applicant who stated ttiat he had been mainly responsible for the management of the house for some time. It was not a tied house. During 1907 the receipts were about 22000. Doctors frequently used the house after dosing hours. He showed doctors' eortifioates—12 for 1905, 13 fo.r iy06, and 11 for 1907. No complaint had been made against the house since its establishment in 1868. "The pre- mifoeG were close to the Commercial Hotel and the Great We-?tern Railway Hotel. Food was provided at the house. They old not make it a practice to sell drink oyer the counter. No drink on credit was given- The police did not oppose. I Mrs Morris said that the house was a great temptation to women as groceries were sold there. She gave an instance in support of her contention. Mrs Ja.nc Jones said that the house was a greater temptation to woir.en than any other house in the district. Women could get drink with their groceries there. There was no ac- commodation in the place- for visitors- She al- leged1 that two women were served with drink over the counter in the house. Mr Edward Jones said that it was simply a pot-.house. Mr puyie.9 complimented Mrs Morris on the way she had cross-examined the ippjicant. He slioneu the auvantage of having all untied house 111 the place. A long discussion ensued, in which the Bench, tho Clerk, a-nel Mr Davies took part, and in the end tho licence was referred for compensa- tion. A provisional licence was granted tho ap pi'CLXSEE CONDUCT IN CHURCH. John Alerilis -Jones, civil engineer, Trawsfvn- jdd, charged Morris Riohards. l'enlan, Traws- fynydd misbehaviour in Church. Mr R 0. Davice w11:" for the complainant, and said that it was the first case of the kind ever heard in the district. The proceedings were taken under an old Act which ci'ealt with nnseem- Iv" behaviour in Church or Churchyard. Mr Morris Jones occasionally read the lessons in the Pee-wh Church. Richards, it was alleged, had for about two years, been annoying him in different ways. Complainant had tried to ig- nore tho man's conduct in the hope tlhat he would desist, but the accused continued his mis- behaviour both outside, and inside the Church. When Jones read t.he lessons, defendant made significant coughs and attracted people's atten- tion. Members of the Church had been so an- ■uoyed that they had .changed their pewa. The Rector (Mr Davies) lHl-d twice publicly protested against the conduct of the defendant, but no improvement followed. A letter w&a also sent. to the defendant rather than proceedings sheuld be taken against him, but the accused con- tinued in his offensive way. The oomplaanaJM. in his evidence, said that Richards made a port of a grunt or cough when- ever witness read the lessons, and stared at hun. On Sunday, May 24th, the defendant coughed more than usual in Church, and continued to annoy tho complainant outside. J. Lloyd Jones eaid that defendant's conduct interfered very muoh with the service. Rich- ards had coughed when witness read the lessons. Other witnesses deposed to the annoyance caused by defendant's unseemly conduct. Rev. David Davies eaid that Richards be- haved most shamefully when Jones read lessons. When 'he (the Rector) denounced certain sins from the pulpit, the defendant would make a significant g'ostupe- indicating that the remarks were meant for certain persona in the congre- gation. The Defendant, in defence, taxi that hie con- science was clear. He had not intentionally dis- turbed the service. He respected the -Rector and the complainant- There was something the matter with his larynx. Defendant was bound over in the um of. tn be cf good behaviour foi twelve months, and tc pay the costs, 14s 6d WINDOW BREAKING. P.C. Josiah Jones preferred Jones, Dolgaregddu, and Richard Pantvcelyn, Tanygrisiau, charges to the ettecc that "they had wilfully broken some of the win- dows of the Assembly Rooms during an c, cr- tainment there. The accused acknowledged hav- ing climbed up the gable end of the but denied breaking the window. A tine ot 2s 6d and costs wa.s imposed. OBSTRUCTING TRAFFIC. Wm. Foulkes Roberts, Back Glynllifon-street; John II. Thomas, 26, Lord-street; Hugh Jones, New-street; and Robert Jones, 25, Lord-street, were summoned for having obstructed the traffic in G1 vnllifon-st-reet, by playing bowls. Evidence was given that traffic had been seriously hindered by the defendants. The defendants expressed re- gre.t at what had occurred. Each was uneci 2s 6d without costs. FURIOUS DRIMNG. Thomas Jones, Dolbryn, was summoned by P.C. John Jones for furiously driving a horse in the street, on May 27th. Evan Jones, Glandwr, Tanygrisiau, was similarly charged. The, Constable, having received c-omplamts, watched the defendants as they rode from the quarries.. Inspector Roberts stated that the warning that had been frequently given had proved of no avail. The defence was that the horses liked to run home. Defendants were fined 2s 6d and costs. Evan Gwilym Jones, Glanypwll-road; Evan Tecwvn Roberts, Bryngoleu; and Thomas W il- liams," Garn, Doibenmaen, were charged with furiously riding bicycles near the Great Western Hotel, on the 3rd inst.

The Brotherhood Meeting on Sunday after- noon was of an unique and interesting charac- ter, the meeting being addressed by the Rev. S. A. Ooker, native minister from Lagos, West Africa.. In introducing tho speaker, Mr F. Bond sa;,cl there were two methods of obtaining the most and best out of an individual or a nation. The first method was by being tyran- meal, coercive and unjust; the second was by being kind, thoughtful and considerate. For centuries tyranny, coercion and injustice had been meted out to Africa by nearly all civilised race, and they had failed utterly to upLf l her, she had writhed in agony and mutely appealed for sympathy. Since the downfall of slavery, liov.ovej.vi territory, more humane measures Tia-el been tried, and kinones1? and con- sideration was slowly but s-ur*«y uplifting Africa up. and proving that intellectually, moraiiy, and; spijatuaily tilie negro is capable of t.he high- est development. • i Referring to the worship cf his bemgmeel brethren in what the English people had de- signated tho ''Dark Continent, Mr Coker said the natives every where were conscious of two exeat facts—their sinfulness and depravity, and the existence of God. It was because cy could not see thc.ir offended Creator and fdt their need of a mediator that they hewed out for themselves uglv images ),n wood and stone, wfi.cn they worshipped and offered sacrifices to as a propitiation for their wrong doing, to avert calamities, and for preservation and protection. In Yoruba country alone there were 401 gods, and a devil was personified and set in the streets, being entreated of not to constrain them to do evil." What the negro wanted was not men to tell him about God and sin. but men with com- passionate hearts that would show him the re- demption and reconciliation which were to be obtained by repentance and faith in Jesus chri-t. The rev. gentleman believed Africa would be enlightened chieflv through her own swarthy sons, as he had never yet met a white missionary who knew fully how to deal with them, whilst some missionaries carried on their work on totally wrong lines. He thanked England for all she had done for Africa during the past century, and he knew no country in the world under whose government he would desire to be jnore than that of England. He was glad of the opportunity they had given him to speak at the Brotherhood, and he honed they would pray for him and Africa. He was black, they were white, but an incision in the flesh would show the blood to be of the same colour: thus they were brothers and should love each other. Mr 1. Leach, the Brotherhood precentor, sang a solo during the meeting. 0

He asked him to come down from the box, but he re- fused, and had to be dragged down. He was locked up, but released later in the evening. Four previous convictions were proved against the defendant.

North, M.J1;6tT.E., conducted an inquiry on' behalf of the Lccal Government Board at the Council Chambers on Tuesday morning respecting the application of the Coun- cil for sanction to borrow E500 for works of water supply. The following members of the Council were present: Messrs Geo. Bevan, John Williams, H. Hughes, Wm. Davias, Wm. HoT- t-on, and E. H. Davies, with Mr J. Amphlett (clerk), Mr J. H, Roberts (-.t'epufy eleik), and Mr Wm. Jones (engineer). The clerk stated that tho population of the district at t.he last census was 8689, but tho present estimated population was 13,000. and the rateable value £ 75,739. The Joans under the Sanitary Act amounted to £ 97,163, and under private Acts £ 187.383, mak- ing a tot-al of B284,551. A penny rate produced £ 300. The L500 in question was requited to meet certain expenditure on water IUJins dur- ing the next, two or three years. He explained that if water mains were laid in new ro.ads b3- fore there was a full demand, they asked' the owners to meet 7 per oent. of the outlay umil the main was running its full capacity. All the work was within the district, and tho water supply was sufficient to serve tIe proposed maiu £ Cohvyn Ba.y was a constituent authority of the Conwav and Colwyn Bay Water Board. Mr Wm. Jonos. the engineer, said they had been compelled within the last two months to spend £ 124 3s in view of this loan, and that the Coun- cil owned no workable roeervoir. There was no oiiposition to the scheme. On the moron ot Mr Geo. Bevan, seconded by Mr John Williams, a vote of thanks was accorded the inspector.

There were a large number of sorrow- ing relations and friends present. Wreaths were sent by the Bethlehem Literary Society an( tlio Hearts of Oak. VISIT OF WOMEN LIBERALS—Yesterday a largo number of the. members of the HooJe anu' Newton (Chester) Women's Liberal Asso- ciation visited the town on their annual ouiing. The company was in charge of Mrs Tasker, clia Irwolylall Mrs Lawson, treasurer; Mrs Wor- ra-11, a member of the committee; and Mrs Wil- lianlf;, secretary. Unfortunately the weather was of the most wretched -rairi fall- ing during the whole of the day, and the mem- bers of the company having- to remain indoors. Tlie one redeeming feature was an excellent tea prepared at (.'a-rtmeH's Restaurant, to which everyone did full justice. During tea the fol- lowing telegram was reau from Mr Alfred Mond, M.P. for Chester: "Heartiest greetings and br"t wishes to our dear friends, from Violet and Alfred Moud." Mrs T. M. Jones, president of the local branch. Pave an eloquent address, in which she extended a warm "welcome to the visitors, on behalf of her branch- Mrs Sugtlen, secretary, also added a few words of welcome. A, hearty vote of thanks war, tendered Mrs T. M. Jones, on the motion of Mrs Tasker, secoati!- ed by Mrs Williams. TIIE PIER CONCERTS. These entertainments attract large gatherings each evening now, and on Saturday evening the big Pavilion was comfortably filled in all parts. The soloist was Mr David Evans, whose "dis- covery" (so far as North ales is concerned) is due to Mr Pryee-Davis, the Pavilion directorate's secretary. When Mr Evans made his first ap- pearance at Cohvyn Bay, about a niont^h ago, it was regarded by the promoters as "a risky ex- periment," but never was an experiment more successful. The South Wales baritone made a triumphant debut, and more than maintained that guecess throughout the week. That the directorate were satisfied with his work is ob- vious from the fact that he has been re-engaged within so short a time, and that for one of the most important periods of the concert season. Mr Evans has scored heavily this week again, On Saturday evening lie sang Squire's "Jerry, Joe, or John," and "The Prologue" (Pagliacci), and was enthusiastically encored on each appear- ance. If anything, his rendering of Leoncavallo's immortal song was better on this occasion than a month ago. It was indeed a masterly perform- ance. Mr Griffith Humphreys was again the entertainer, and, as was the case throughout his week's visit, he gave unqualified satisfaction, his numbers being refined and genuinely humorous, as usual. A commendable feature of the instru- mental selections was a trombone solo, "The Vil- lage Blacksmith," by Mr Joseph Lindsey. Never- theless, Mr Lindsey can give a better account of himself on the euphonium. The "Raymond" and "Ruy Bias" overtures, with the "Dance Caresse" and "Dance Americ-aine," and "Aubade" and "Reve du Bal" as eouplcts-SelJenick's pizzi- cati 'roused the customary hearty elleer-ivere amongst, the most popular orchestral pieces. Miss May Currie (contralto) will be the vocalist I and Mr Howard James, the entertainer, on Satur- day evening. Miss Currie will also appear each night next week. -9150 DAMAGE AT A FIRE. An outbreak of fire, which was happily dis- covered1 before it had secured a good h-Id upon the premises. occurred at Ghbertville, one of the largest and fashionable boarding houses on the West Promenade, on Friday. It appears that a stove, which had been ajight for ironing pur- poses in the laundry, was aiiswed to go out dur- ing the afternoon. At about 6.15 a iiialct, was sent down to relight it, Al J. Jordan being also in the room until 6.30. At that time there was nothing wrong. After this everyone was busy with dinner, but about 7.30 Miss C. Jordan detected the smell of fire, and Stsked her sister to go to. the laundry, but when tho latter got to the head of the stairs leading down to the J'(X)!m, she was driven back by the smoke. Hav- ing located the outbreak she rang up the fire bngad. Miss C. Jordan in the meantime went round to the back door of the laundry, and opened it, and So voluminous wero the flames that though she was standing well away, her hair and eyebrows were badly scorched. Visi- tors who were staying in the house, and also those from Rothesay and! Balmoral, and others, quickly arrived on tho scene, and with the aid of garden IKSOS fought the flanver- with such good effect that by tbo tyne the brigiLle ar- rived they were under control. The firemen speedily exfinguithed the outbreak. Members of the brigade were left on duty all night, whilst Mr Owen Jones, an old' member of the Rhyl Brigade, also remained, but with the exception of a slight outbreak frotm a. smouldering team about two hours later, nothing iurther < eeurred. It is surmised that the fire broke out in eoo- sequence of tihe snapping of a rope aitiched to a patent clothes airer. The lines bore a num- ber of light and starched articles, which pre- sumably biow on to the fire, quickly got alight, and started the conflagration. The general ap- ] >ear a nee of the room when an inspection was made, showed tJiaf, the ouibeak would have been extremely serious if it had been left for a little longer. All the woodwork had been badly burnt, and a largo number of windows broken. Lamps and several baskets of clothes which were laying on tho floor, preparatory to being taken up,-stairs, were entirely burnt. The premises are divided info two wings, but the fire took place in while the dinner was served1 in another; honco the delay in discovering the outbreak. It is estimated that tho damage, which is covered by insurance, will amount to jei50.
