N. S. P. C. C. WORK AT COLWYN BAY. A FAVOURABLE ANUAL REPORT. The annual meeting of the Colwyn Bay and Dia. 4iriot Branch of the N.S.P.C.C. was held in the Hotel Metropole to-day week. The attendance numbered about 100, over whom the Hon. Mrs Laurence Brodrick preeided. Letters of apology ior non-attendance were read from Lady Rad. cjille, Mr Tomlinson and Mr Foulkes-Robet-ts. The hon. treasurer (Mrs George Osborn) said that Subscriptions had been received to the amount of £31 3s 3d which included a collection of £1 as 9d made at the last annual meeting, and Mrs Brodrick, who said the statement was very satisfactory, called upon Mr Francis Nunn to move the adoption of the report. In doing so Mr Nunn congratulated the members upon the character of the report and the lo. cal workers upon the success of their efforts. At the name time he pointed out that the subscription were not up to the toLal one would expect -for a town like Colwyn Bay. Mr Brock seconded and the motion, which was car- ried unanimously. Mr Norton moved the re-election of the officers en bloc, and Mrs Gamble seconded, the motion being unanimously agreed to. The president acknowledged her reappointment, and she was very pleased to be present on that occasion, more particularly because she had been unaMe tc at- tend the previous annual meeting -it the society. She agreed with Mr Nunn that subscriptions ought to in- crease considerably for such a plam as Oolwyn Bay, for even if there were no real need of the Society's work in this district, they should remember that there were other places not so fortunately situated. oUe, therefore, appealed to an those who did not sub- scribe regularly to the Society to do so. however small the amount. Mr J. C. Teasdale, from the Society's Central Office, then delivered a most interesting address on Sije work of th* Society. In pasiing nc, complimented Mrs Nunn and Mrs Jsburn an their effort; of. half Gf the Society in the district. He paid great tribute to the late Benjamin Waugh, the founder of the society, and relateo an incident, which happened some time before his leath, as an instance of his sound integrity. He said that white the late Mr Waugh was spending a short hoitday in Devonshire, he happened to call in a small farmer's cottage, where he nokj"d a pair of vases on t mantel piece. He pur- chased the articles for £4. Shortly afterwards, while at home, a friend called upon hhu who better knew the intrinsic value of the vases and offered £40 for them. The bargain w&- struck, and such was the (character of the man ("aid the speaker) that he im- mediately afterwards pouted the balance of the pur- chase money to the farmer'i wilt in De-ton (applause.) Such he said was the man who founded the Society, and whose name would remain amongst the foremost of great men. Dealing with local work, he said that from a report he had received, 46 cases had been dealt with in Colwyn Bay and district during the year, and out of that number, there was only one pro. secution, the parents being sentenced to three montw imprisonment. He urged the audience to remember, however, that even if there were not a single case in Oolwyn Bay, they should help to carry on the work in the large centres of population. Mrs Thos. Lloyd proposed a vote of thanics to Mr Teasdale, which was seconded by Mrs Lumley, and on the motion of Mrs Nunn seconded by Mrs Reynolds. th&nks were also accorded to the Hon. Mrs Brodrick for presiding.

AFFAIBS OF A RHOS-ON-SEA TOBACCONIST. A HAPPY ENDING. At the Bangor Bankruptcy Court to-day week, be- for the Registrar, Mr J. Qlynne Jones, in the case of Ernest Edwin Parkins, tobacconist, Ithos-on-Sea, Mr W. B. Lucas, on behalf of the debtor, announced that the debtor had provided the Official Receiver with sufficient to pay 20s in the 2, and on that ground he asked that hi3 public examination be dispensed with. From the Official Receiver's statement it appeared that the debtor's liabilities amounted to X124 10s, there being a deficiency of L81 14s. The debtor was adjudicated bankrupt on his own application. He commenced business as a tobacconist at Everard-road, uiios-on-Sea in May, 1906, and on the promenade in October, 1907, but having no capital of his own his wife advanced him 2100 with which to start business. The bankrupt stated that she had made further advances to him of about X60. At the date of the receiving order there was no stock at Everard-road, but the fixtures there and the stock and furniture at the Promenade shop were sold by the Official Receiver to the wife for 967 10s. The furniture at Everard- road was claimed by the wife and she had also in. formed the Official Receiver that she would pay him enough to enable him to clear all the creditors. The bankrupt was briefly examined, stating that prior to entering business he was in the Navy. His wife had bought all the effects from the Official Re- ceiver and had also paid to him enough to pay the creditors 20s in the X.. He realised that tf was in. solvent two months before his bankruptcy. The Official- Receiver then asked that the examina- tion be closed and said that if the debtor should ever ask for an annulment of the adjudicativn, he (the I Official Receiver) would concur. The Registrar said that he had no hesitation in ordering the examination closed, and only re- I gretted that more cases did not terminate in an I I equally satisfactory manner.

'I A COLWYN BAY CARRIER'S BANKRUPTCY. BOUGHT LAND AND BURIED THE MARE IN IT. At the Bangor Bankruptcy Court, to-day week, be- fore the Registrar (Mr J. Glynne Jones), Thomas Owen Robsrts, carrier, Trillo Cottage, Willoughby-road, Ool- wyn Bay, appeared for his public examination. His unsecured creditors represented X139 16s lid., and according to his statement of accounts there was a surplus of assets amounting to R64 3s 7d. The debtor attributed his insolvency to "losses of horses, sickness in family, and accident to myself." According to the Official Receiver, the debtor, who is 50 years of age, is a carrier or porter, and ap. peared to have resided in Colwyn Bay since 1882. The debtor filod another petition in 1S99, then his unsecured liabilities amounted to 9128, the receiving order being rescinded upon his paying a composition of 7s 6d in the 2. Last May the bank, rupt gave a bill of sale to his wife's uncle for "1, a past consideration, and his wife claimed other res- pects. He owned a hou-e nailed Pernios, Elwy road, the estimated value of which he put at 2940, subject to a mortgage of t740, bearng an estimated surplus of C240, which the Official Receiver was informed was successive. Questioned by the Assistant Official Receiver as to the value of the mortgaged property, the debtor said that a lady whom he regarded at one time as a likely purchaser had expressed satisfaction that the property was worth 9940. He afterwards adver- tised in the newspaper, inquiring about the lady in question. The Official Receiver: I am afraid it was a poor way of securing a purchaser. The debtor went on to say that unfortunately he bought a piece of building land at Colwyn Bay for £110. He had paid a deposit, but had not yet com- pleted the purchase nor had he been asked to com- plete.. Is the land still vacant? I buried a mare in it (laughter.) Does that increase the value of it as a monumental ground? (laughter.) Subsequently the debtor was examined by Mr T. H. Morgan, his solicitor, and Mr Lucas, one of the cre- ditors, the examination being closed.

RHYL COUNTY COURT. FURTHER HEARING OF THE PROPERTY DISPUTE CASE. QUESTION OF A FATHER'S LIABILITY. This court was held on Friday, before His Honour Judge Moss. THE JUDGE AND JUDGMENT SUMMONSES. During the hearing of the judgment sum- monses, the Judge remarked that he could not oommit debtors unless he had absolute evidence that such persons were able to pay and would not do so. It seemed to him that some people had the idea that debtors were sent to prison be- cause they did not pay the debt, whereas they wore sent for disobeying the order of the oourt, he being satisfied that they were able to pay and would not do so after he had made an order. ADMINISTRATION ORDERS. Several applications came before the Judge for extending the time for payment and for alter- ing administration orders. His Honour pointed out that he would insist upon orders made by him in administration applications being ad- hered to. He was not disposed, unles3 there were special oircumstanoes, to vary the orders. A LANDORD'S CLAIM FOR RENT. His Honour was occupied for a considerable time in hearing a case in which the plaintiff was Mr Llew. B. Evans, brickmaker, Rhyl (who waa represented by Mr Daniel Evans), and the de- fendant was a painter named David Jones, who formerly lived in one of the plaintiff's cottages at Tynewydd-terrace. The plaintiff claimed for £ 3 10s 6d rent due, and the defendant counter- claimed for £ 2 10s for painting work done. The Defendant contended that he only owed about 16s 6d rent, and said that when he worked for the plaintiff the rent was deducted from his wages each week. Mr Daniel Evans denied this, and said that the rent was never stopped out of wages, as that would be illegal. What was done was this: the defendant received his money in the office, and would then sometimes hand back the rent to the clerk. He submitted that the defendant had been paid for all the work he had done, and that the charge he made for painting the house in which he lived was not a proper one, and that any painting he did was on his own responsibility. As a matter of fact the de- fendant grained the doors of his house, and be- cause the plaintiff would not allow him 7s 6d each for the doors he painted out the graining before he left. The Judge said that was not a nice thing to do, and asked defendant why he did so. Defendant replied that he wanted to leave the house as he found it. Evidence was called in support of the conten- tion that defendant had been paid for all the work he was authorised to do, and the time- keeper said he had seen the defendant pay rent out of his wages. The Judge said he would allow defendant 10s • for tha painting he had done inside the house, al and so gave judgment for plaintiff for 23 Os 6d. SIMILARITY OF NAMES. In the case of a dispute between a draper and a family named Evans from Victoria-road, Rhyl, considerable amusement was caused by the difficulty the parties had in ascertaining who was the real defendant, and the bailiff said that the grandfather, father, and son's names were all "John Evans," so that there was a difficulty in knowing who to serve. The Grandmother said her grandson had been summoned, whereas it was her son who owed the money, so she believed. The matter was adjourned to find the proper defendant. A LLANDDULAS CASE. Mr E. A. Crabbe applied for the reinstatement of a committal order against Mra Hannah Ro- berts, of Maes y Don, Llanddulas, upon the ground that it had been set aside on the applica- tion of the defendant in his absence, she alleging that she was in receipt of parish relief. Mr Crabbe said the amount of the debt was P,9 Is 9d for boots. Judgment was obtained against her in 1906, and since that time she had oniy paid 9s. In September, 1907, an order was made against her under a judgment summonses for 2s 6d per week, with a committal, but when he was not present she had applied to the court to suspend the committal as she said she was in receipt of parish relief. That, he contended, was inaccurate. As a matter of fact the de- fendant lived in a four or five-roomed house at Llanddulas, and it was well furnished. She lived near the shore, and last season she had visitors for about six weeks. She also had two som living with her who were in good situa- tiom. The defendant was cross-examined by Mt Crabbe, and denied that she had had many visitors this summer. She also denied that she had had her husband's life insured for £200, and that the policy was deposited to secure the furniture. The furniture belonged to her son, I who bought it before hi3 father died, as he meant to get married, but he lived with her afterwards. She did not have anything after her father's death other than the club money. The Judge said he would make a freSh order for payment of 2s 6d per month. THE PAYMENT OF COMPENSATION MONEY. An application waa made to the court for an increased allowance to Mrs Louisa Emily Wil- liams, Rhyl, whose husband had been killed, and in respect of whose death Mr Llew. B. Evans had paid compensation money into the court under the Workmen's Compensation Act. It was stated that the applicant was receivig 10il per week for the support of her children from the money in court, and she now asked for JE1 during the winter. The Judge said the applicant must remember that the money would not last for ever, and if he allowed her 21 per week there would be nothing left for the children in about two years. The applicant pleaded hard for J61 per week, and said she would rather go without money in the summer if she could have more in the winter, as she could earn money in fine weather. The Judge said he would allow the applicant 153 per week from November to the end of April, but after that she must come to him again; nothing would be paid her after April without his order. A MILK RETAILER AND HIS CUSTOMERS. Mr Edward Lloyd, Bryn-y-Wal, Rhuddlan, was the plaintiff in cases against several de- fendants for milk supplied. The cases had been referred to the Judge by the registrar from the previous court. In the first case called the claim was for Ll 1&1 6d, but defendant said she did not owe any- thing like the amount. His Honour adjourned the case for plaintiff to produce his day-book. In another case, in which the claim was 15s lOd, the defendant, who disputed liability was ordered I to pay Is per month. In another case where 2s 4d was claimed, the Judge said that in the absence of the plaintiff's

CARDIFF FAMILY'S GRATITUDE, j Piles, Scalp Sores, Chapped and Injuries Cured. I THE family of Mrs. Eliza Good, of 26, Burnaby-street, Sp'ollands, Cardiff, are never likely to forget the fl § ^g great debt they owe to Zam-Buk. In conversation with a Cardiff Times reporter, Mrs. Good said :— B I became subject to piles after the birth of my first baby, five years ago", and up to a few months E ago I was a constant sufferer. The burning pain and irritation were at times almost unbearable, and Ef often made me quite ill. I could not stand up or sit down without being in terrible pain, and the only B time I got ease was when the piles bled. During the whole time I suffered I was constantly trying B j I ordinary ointments and remedies, but all were alike unable to bring relief or cure, until at last I quite g lost licart. llf 1 ill W Then I read of Zam-Buk's repeated successes and thought I would just make one other attempt, B I If. ijiji I -it||1 for the piles were causing me increased pain daily. I thought from what I had read that Zam-Buk B 'l| j |l!i; iUjl v:: I was more than a mere ointment, but 1 was scarcely prepared for the wonderful cure it brought me. fl y|| lij! I p | This rich balm first soothed the intense burning pain, and then gradually but surely drove the horrid fl 11 y piles away. Several months ago I ceased to suffer from them, and since then there has not been the fl slightest sign of the piles returning. h Since my own cure I have found Zam-Buk a rare treasure in the home. My eldest girl, now in her fifth year, got her finger jammed in the mangle and badly crushed. I dressed the injured finger | with Zam-Buk, and it soon began to mend. The child eagerly looked forward to the Zam-Buk drtTss- ings. which she said were very soothing. Perseverance with the balm has now made the finger sound B and strong s^ort a8° my little boy's head became covered with scurf.

HOW A BARONET SAVED £5 An amusing incident happened in connec- tion with the stone-laying ceremony of the new home for nurses at the Salop Infir- mary, Shrewsbury, to-day week. The ceremony took place in an em-Insure reserved for ticket-holders, and when Sir Thomas Meyrick, a well-known Shrop- shire baronet, was about to enter a raw policeman re- fused him admission because he was unable to pro- duce his ticket. "All right," said Sir Thomas, "I will go away, and it will save me R5.11 When the policeman's blunder was discovered attempts were made to recall tho indignant baronet, but he declined to enter the forbidden ground.

A WORKMAN'S WARNING. Very ill through taking imitation bile beans. Needed the Genuine "CHARLES FORDE S'' to Curo his Liver Trouble. The terrible risk an invalid may run through, taking a cheap substitute pill instead of tie genuine medicine, liaz been shown by the pain- ful experience of Mr Henry Miller, of 28, Dynevor Street, Fredworth, Gloucester. To a representative of one of the Birmingham news- papers, Mr Miller recently awd:- "1 am thirty-seven yoa.rs of age, and an engi- neer's fitter. About seventeen yeaxs ago I be- gan to suffer from a disordered liver, dizziness, biliousness, and fainting fills. I endured agonies from biliousness, and my appetite was always dreadfully poor. I was compelled to stay away f,rom work for weeks at a time. "I was under the care of seven doctors at different times, and was a patient at two hospi- tals, but g'ot no benefit. I continued to grow weaker and more helpless. "About twelve month.s ago I commenced to take CHAS. FORDE'S Bile Beans, and was being rapidly cured by this wonderful medicine, when to my dismay I had a serious set back. So wonderfully good had been the- effect of CHAS. FOKDKS Bile Beans, I had tho box then in use brought to me, and I discovered that my wife had baen served with an imitation bile bean-a worthless substitute that had renewed my ill- ness- "Happily, by casting these aside and securing some of the genuine world-famed CHAS. FOEDE'S Bile Beans, I found myself onoe more on the highway to recovery. CHAS. FORDE'S Bile Beans alone eventually made a complete, indeed a marvellous cure." Mr Miller's experience shows Itow necessary it is for you to carefully examine the label of every box offered to you when you order CHAS.

THE RHYL PROPERTY DISPUTE. In the case of Homer v. Vaughan, partly heard at the previous court, Mr Homer, owner of the Victoria Hall and property to the west and south, claimed an injunction to compel Mr J. O. Vaughan, owner of Vaughan's Baths, to remove a signboard which has existed on the roadway leading to the hall and baths since 1850, plain- tiffs claiming that Mr Vaughan's father agreed by deed under seal with the late Mr Greenhalgli that neither of them should place cr leave any- thing on the roadway after the signing of the deed in 1898. On the other hand the defendant counter-claimed and asked for an injunction to compel Mr Homer to remove certain portions of the shop front of Messrs Tayak and Co., window sills, and a porch, which was alleged to overhang the roadway, and also for an injunction for ex- cessive user of the right of way to the Victoria Hall. At the previous hearing the Judge ad- journed the case, and expressed a hope that in the meantime the parties would come to the con- clusion not to go on with the action. Mr Howel Evans (Messrs Gold Edwards and Co.), who appeared for Mr Vaughan, now said he was sorry to be there that day after what the Judge bnd said, but he had done his best to settle matters. There had been cor- respondence between solicitors, but Mr Homer declined to settle. Mr Gamlin said he thought he should explain to the Judge that Mr Homer had a brother in the legal profession—a member of a largo firm in Birmingham—and the brother advised Mr Homer to have his legal position defined by the court, and he could not see his way to go out- side that. Mr J. O. Vaughan, in cross-examination by Mr Gamlin, said the width of the roadway by the High-street entrance was 20ft. 9in., and he was aware that he had said that the 10ft. 9in. roadway granted to Mr Greenhalgh was from tho outside of the sign, and that he (defendant) had granted Miss Jones a right of way on the other side of 10ft. He did not think the roadway was measured at that time, and he further said that he had the right to grant Mis.5 Jones a right of way of 18ft. if he so chose. The Judge asked what bearing the questions had on the case. Mr Gamlin replied that the roadway was 20ft. 9in. wide at the entrance from High-street, and that the 10ft. 9in. was measured from the gable end of the house and not from outside the sign- board, which was higher up the roadway. In reply Lo further questions, Mr Vaughan said they had abandoned three window sills as they had been up over 20 years, and the plaintiff had altered the verandah, taken down the porch, and removed the electric cables which were on the right of way, but there was still a downspout and three window sills overhanging. He was aware that the old tenant of the Victoria Hall had left that place. He did not know that Mr Homer gave him notice to leave as soon as he took possession of the property. Mr Evan3 pointed out that at the date of the counter-claim the things mentioned had not been removed; it was done since. The Judge asked if in all seriousness the parties wished this case to be fought out to the bitter end, when things had been allowed to remain on the roadway for years with the tacit consent of all parties. It seemed to him to be a storm in a tea cup, though he could not compel Mr Gamlin's client to come to an ar- rangement. If they asked him to go on he would do so, but he. did not see that any useful purpose could be served. Mr Gamlin said he would submit to an order for the window sills to be removed if the Judge would make an order for the signboard to also be removed; the signboard was the crux of the whole matter. The Judge said he was against Mr Gamlin on the signboard. It had been there since 1860, and there was no evidence that it had been an obstruction during the 48 years. Mr Gamlin replied that the matter must then go on. Mr Evans pointed out that in the agreement of 1889 with Mr Vaughan and Mr Greenhalgh there was nothing said about Mr Greenhalgh's heirs or assigns. It was a personal agreement with Mr Greenhalgh, and had nothing to do with Mr Homer, who succeeded him. Mr J, O. Vaughan said that Mr Greenhalgh had entered into the agreement to asphalt the roadway, and he did so to the gable end, be- yond the signboard. Mr Evans said he had other witnesses to call as to the window sills and downspouts not having been there for 20 years, but as Mr Gamlin ad- mitted that he would not call them, he would only call evidence as to the excessive user of the right of road. P.C. Rogers gave evidence that he had been put on duty at the Victoria Hall on Sunday evenings when crowds of boys would congregate there from 6.30 to eight o'clock in order to go to the hall to witness the cin-matogranh enter- tainment. He was there to keep order. In reply to Mr Gamlin. Witness said there was no disorder since Mr Homer had had the place. Mr Gamlin said he relied upon the agreement, which. he contended, clearly laid down that the defendant was not to leave or place anything on the roadway.

A FATHER'S LIABILITY. George Nutter, formerly of the Imperial Hotel, Rhyl, but now of the Fox and Goose, Whitchurch. sued J. W. Ellis, a retired chemist, now residing at Abergele, for B10 8s 6d for board, apartments, etc.. supplied to the defendant's son from October 4th to November 22nd, 1907. Mr Joseph Lloyd appeared for Mr Nutter, and Mr E. A. Crabbe was for the defence. The Plaintiff stated that the account was con- tracted through defendant's son, Mr Pennant Ellis, who during the period sued for was serious- ly ill. The defendant was one of the plaintiff's customers, and came to the Imoerial Hotel at various times. On October 4th the son, who stayed on and off at the Imperial, was seriously ill in bed. and plaintiff called his father's atten- tion to him. The father went to see his son, and instructed them to send for a doctor. When the latter came he certified that Mr Ellis (junr.) was suffering from pneumonia, and advised tli-t a nurse should be sent for. Thereupon the de- fendant asked that a nurse should be sent for. Defendant, said he would pay. In reply to Mr Crabbe, Witness admitted that the defendant's son was about twentv-siv years of arre, and was an architect and surveyor practising in Rhyl. Plaintiff added that a nurse was sent for. and was supplied with board and apartments. The defendant said he would pay the bill, and later on asked for it. He maintained that the defendant said he would pay. Dr. Summerhill deposed that when he told the father that the son was suffering from pneumonia, and that he ought to have a nurse, he authorised them to send for a nurse and askod Mr Nutter nnd himself to do all thov could for him. Defendant said: "It will be all right. I will pay all expenses." In cross- examination, witness said he had sent in an account for medical attendance, and entered the father's name in hi3 books. Defendant said he used to casually call at the Imperial. When he went there on the night in question the doctor was already there, and he denied that he ever ordered the doctor or nurse. He had spent a great deal of money on the education of his son, who was able to pay the bill. In reply to Mr Lloyd, defendant admitted that he remembered saying that it would be all right. Mr Crabbe submitted that the defendant's son was the person to whom Mr Nutter should look for payment. If the defendant were liable he I claimed that, an agreement should have been made in writing. I His Honour was inclined to think that when the father heard that his son was suffering from such a serious illness as pneumonia, which required very careful attention, he undertook to be responsible for the expense. There would be judgment for the plaintiff with costs. That, however, did not prevent the father from re- covering the amount from his son. LANDLADY'S CLAIM AGAINST A LODGER. Celia Reynolds, Kinmel-street, claimed M 7s 5d from Matthew Wightman, tailor, alleged to be due for lodgings, food and money lent. There was also a counter-claim for JE5 18s for money lent and loss of work through incapacity owing to the plaintiff locking defendant out one night. Mr Joseph Lloyd defended. Plaintiff stated that defendant lodged with her for about twenty weeks, and when he left on August 29th last he owed 9s 3d for lodgings and food and 18s borrowed money. In reply to Mr Lloyd, plaint.ff denied that she turned the de- fendant out of his room to make way for visitors. She did not lock him out on the night of August 29th. Thomas Reynolds, the husband, said that he knew the money was owing by the defendant, according to what his (witness') wife told him. The Defendant denied that he owed anything. He left because he was locked out when he went there one night. On that particular night he wa.3 working until twenty minutes to twelve, and arrived home live minutes later. He rang the bell, but got no response although he waited for three-quarters of an hour. He went back again with a constable, but could not get in. It was a cold wet night, and as a consequence he was incapacitated from work. One day plaintiff came to him whilst at work, and asked him to lend her a sovereign, which he got for her. William John Richard-i, the defendant's em- ployer, remembered the plaintiff coming one day to the shop, and defendant came to witness asking him for a sovereign, which he said he wished to lend to Mrs Reynolds. Witness added that he gave the defendant £1 which he handed to Mrs Reynolds. Plaintiff admitted having the JEl. but of that amount 18s 3d was due to her for rent and money lent, and the defendant told her to keep the remaining Is 9d to go towards a wedding present. Defendant then asked her to treat him, which she did (laughter). P.C. Oldfield confirmed defendant's statement that he came to the police station on August 29th, and that it was a cold, windy and wet night. His Honour awarded the plaintiff 18s, and declined to allow anything on the counter-claim. A TENANT SUED FOR DILAPIDATIONS. Herbert Barnett, Rhuddlan, on behalf of his wife, sued Mary Jones for JE6 8s lid for dilapida- tions alleged to have been caused by defendant during her occupancy of Springfields, Rhyl-road, Rhuddlan. Mr J. Pierce Lewis represented plaintiff, and Mr Joseph Lloyd was for the de- fendant. Mr Pierce Lewis said that when the defendant entered the house it was in excellent repair, only having been occupied for twelve months previous- ly. When defendant left, it was alleged that the house was in a dirty state, the pipes in the bathroom were choked, a leaded light was broken in the vestibule, and the paper was discoloured.
