I "I Bias Gogerddar. » A YEOMANRY INVASION ► | | Bt "PHILIP SIDNEY." Never before in its history, extending back over many centuries, has the ancient seat of the p jaan, witnessed such an invasion, as that which took place last Friday. Lad happened! Whence had coti.?: li& army of some forty sturdy, well knit, healt by and intelligent young yoemen who were to be so heartily welcomed in his own grounds by Sir Pryse Prysc, 13.;4- < Anyone who had chanced to be at the North Gale Toll Bar house at noon would have seen the party gathering from all quarters, well bootect and warmly clad, ready to start for a steady walk to Gogerddan gardens and grounds, and thence round to Bow Street and home. Sightseers wondered what was coming to pass was it the initial step towards the formation of a Corps going out from Aberystwyth to fight in the I Transvaal 1 Whv the choosing of two men with lone letrs and of steadv gait to act as pace makers Why the start punctual to the appointed moment? Why no waiting for any who perchance were lingering long over their dinner ? Why the air of business and activity about the party ? It was a gathering of short course students- men drawn from many counties, holding divers scholarships-young farmers from numerous home- steads—setting out to visit Gogerddan and i.. see in its gardens the successful results there obtained of divers methods of prunings, vegetable growings and floriculture, of which they had already heard in the lecture rooms, and seen in apple planting. In chort it was nothing more and nothing lest than a practical demonstration on such a large and liberal scale as alone in this locality can be furnished by such a place as Gogiddan. The walk out was one of rare interest and profit. Given a party of' intelligent men, with youth, vigour, health, opening manhood on*their side, it could not be otherwise. Fields, badges, ploughings, cattle, horses, trees, all came in for divers and sensible remarks, as they were passed. Even a short lecture on vaulted stone roofs of cathedrals, was drawn forth from one of the party as it passed down the avenue of overarching trees. Nor was the teaching of John Ruskin-forwhicb God be thanked—overlooked; every one seemed to be able to add a thought, or put an original question. Bees, and the many strange stories which have grown up around them in the course of ages; Welnh superstitions, and dog lore, all came in for their share, and only too soon had to end by the arrival it Gogerddan. Here at the garden gate Mr. Yeary, the head gardener—senior in years and length of service of all his brethren in the district—took charge of the invading party, and under his genial guidance began a lOur of all the glasshouses and grounds. Few, if indeed any, had before seen orange and lemon trees in full fruit; vines in various stages of bursting, the banana in healthy growth, and other trees of similar interest. When all the party was assembled in one of the houses, Ir. Vearey produced about as scraggy a;id leggy a geranium plant as ever made a home tor itself in a pot. This formed the object for a thoroughly practical and easily understanded demonstration on prun- ning and cutting by Mr. Pickard, who took t he students through the various stages of a geranium's life, and left the plant a very different object from its original woe-begone state. Pursuing its way under Air. Yeary's leading, the party found itself in the open vegetable garden, surrounded on all sides 4y apple and pear trees of many years' growth, bearing full witness to the value of systematic and careful pruning in youth. Here, to the great pleasure of everyone, Sir Pryse Pryse wes waiting to give his personal word of welcome to his visitors. Few sights could (be in their way more touching than this of the venerable, genial baronet, the Master of Gogerddan, standing in his own garden, surrounded by a company of young knowledge seeking students, eagerly waiting to hear any word he might wish to give them. Right heartily, and in simple telling words did Sir Pryse Pryse bid his visitors welcome, and en- join them to go round and see all they wanted. Practical too were his words of advice to his young farmer friends to grow plenty of potatoes and cabbage, as well as fruits; to give to their growth all the benefit of the knowledge they were now acquiring in the lecture room and the open air. With three times three and ringing cheers, which once again woke the echos of Gogerddan, was Sir Pryse Pryse thanked for the privilege accorded his visitors of seeing his gardens and grounds, and of hearing his voice of welcome. The bee hives and their now dormant occupants came in for explanation by Mr. Veary, being of especial -nterest in view of the lantern lectures on the subject recently given to the short course student- A large bed of healthy, well grown leeks, as was but natural, caught the attention of young Wales, and formed the subject of the second of Mr. Pickard's short lectures. Their growth, treatment, manures, and habits came in for observation and description, and gave rise to varied questions and debates. Completing the tour of the gardens Mr. Yeary, at Sir Pryse's wish, took his visitors round the grounds to the front of the mansion, and over the greensward of many generations to the con- servatory on the hillside, where the aloe and eucalyptus plants were the objects of chief in- terest. Arrived at the entrance gates of the park, a i-, vote of thanks, moved in English, and seconded in Welsh speeches, by two students was ac("r} 10 Mr. Veary for the services he had so williijgly and so ably given to the party. A] steps were then turned to Bow Street, where the d rnands of a glorious hunger caused by the sharp and frosty air had to be met ere proceeding on tiie homeward march. Will anyone present ever forget that descent on a certain little shop kept by the cheeriest and best- so, I of women, who, to her credit be it said, at once mounted to the unusual and unexpected demands made upon her stock of*welcome biscuits nr. 1 \iocolates?

And she was more than equal to the occasion, for so soon ai one tin was emptied, down came an- r from her store-room by the hands of a comely maid. With natures invigorated, the party faced the homeward march in a snow storm, which met the men with full force as they mounted the steep "1, sample, yet withal practical and useful meino.it' do our short course students vary their classroom work and carry with them to their various homes on far-distant mountain sides, and in remote vales, the memories of their all too brief residence at U.C.W., and of their reception by :Sir Prvse Pryse, whose name, as the Master ot stately I Gogerddan, becomes to them a reality and a living i pi C60110C.

I DOLGELLEY. FISHBRT RIGHTS.—Before a Divisional Court of Queen's Bench, composed of Justicc* Cbannell and Bucknill, on Wednesday week, the case of Car- penter v. Bailey came up. It was an appeal by Harold Frederick Carpenter against a decision of eleven justices of Merioneth, sitting at Dolgelley, who had convicted him of unlawfully taking salmon with a net in the Mawddach River at Llanelltyd. A summons returnable at petty sessions was taken out by the respondent BRiley, who claimed the exclusive right of fishing under demise from Jane Margaret Foulkes, the owner of the property on either side of the river. At the hearing before the justices the appellant set up a bona-fide claim M one of the public to the right to fish in the waters, they being both tidal and navigable, and this claim, he submitted, ousted the jurisdiction of the magis- trates. The justices found that the waters were tidal but not navigable, and convicted, hence the appeaL—Mr. Danckwerts Q.C. (Mr. Stuart Moore with him), in support of the appeal, argued that the justices were clearly wrong. It was quite sufficient that the water was tidal for the public to have a right of fishing, unless the respondent could show a right which went back antecedent to Magna Charta.-Mr. Justice Channell: How was the fishing done 7-Mr. Danckwerts: From a boat. —Mr. Justice Channell: If from a boat,, why was not the river navigable? What do the juetices mean by its being not navigable. Mr. Danck- werts I must tell your Lordships frankly that I do not know what they mean. It is a Welsh caae, and that is the only explanation I have of it (laughter).—Mr. J. Eldon Bankes, for the respond- ent, submitted that the justices were right on their finding that the river was not navigable in fact. He knew of no case which decided that because a river was tidal it was therefore navigable in the sense in which the words had been used in laying down the proposition that a river must be both i tidal and navigable in order to give the public a right to fish.-Mr. Justice Channell, in delivering judgment, held that a public right prima facit existed in any river that was tidal, and there being no question that this claim was bona fide made, the jurisdiction of the magistrates was ousted. Accordingly the conviction was quashed and the appeal allowed with costs. Mr. Danckwerts, Q.C., was instructed by Mr. Guthri Jones, solicitor. RURAL DISTRICT COUNCIL. The ordinary monthly meeting of the above Council was held on Saturday when there were present:—Mr. John Evans, Barmouth (chairman) Messrs. Cadwaladr Roberts, Llangelynen; Morris Griffith Williams, Llanerddwyn; Owen Jones, Dinas Mawddwy Robert Hughes, Llanfachreth Richard Jones, Llanelltyd, and Griffith Richards, Brithdir and Islaw'rdref; with Mr. W. R. Davies (clerk); Mr. W. R. Richardson (assistant clerk); and Mr. William Jones (inspector). The minutes of the last meeting were read with a view to confirmation. VOTE OF CONDOLBKCE. The Chairman before proceeding with the business on the agenda, said it was his sad duty to propose a vote of condolence with the family of the late Dr. Edward Jones. Mr. M. G. Williams, seconded the proposition, which was carried in silenoe. LLWYNGWRIL WATER SUPPLY. The Clerk said that the committee which had been appointed to inquire into the matter of the Llwyngwril Water Supply, and into the claims of the various riparian owners had met. At that committee it was decided to ask Mr. Gillart, to proceed with the plans and other arrangements for bringing the scheme into operation. The Council approved of the action of the committee, and adopted the report. It was therefore passed on the proposition of Mr. Cadwaladr Roberts, seconded by Mr. Robert Hughes, that Mr. Gillart should be asked to pro- ceed with the plans. With regard to the building bye-laws. Mr. R. Hughes, proposed that the bye-laws which were now in force in the Talyllyn district, should be extended to the other district. Mr. Richard Jones seconded, and it was carried. The Clerk informed the Council that the Com- mittee would again meet in a short time at Llwyn- gwril and see what could be done with regard to compensating the riparian owners. Mr. Gillart had also intimated his intention to be present at the committee. BRYNTIRION, DYFFRYN. A letter was received from Mr. Williams, son of the owner of the above place, saying he had done all he could with regard to the condition of the privies at Brynterion. He bad had them cleaned, but he had no power to do anything else to them. Mr. M. J. Williams proposed that the necessary repairs and alterations be done at once, and Mr. R. Hughes seconded. The Inspector said that his annual report would be ready by the next meeting. The matter was therefore adjourned for a month. A letter was also received from Mr. Griffith, the agent of Mr. C. E. J. Owen, in connection with his farm called Esgeirian, to the effect that he had not come to any settlement with the tenant, and asking the Council to wait for a month, and this was agreed to. THE CARTING OF BARMOUTH REFUSE. The following letter had been sent to the Local Government Board by the Rural District Council, concerning the carting of refuse, &c., from Barmouth. They complained that the refuse, which consisted not only of the refuse of the town, but also the contents of privies, was conveyed to the rural district, and that the above refuse was conveyed in open carts into the rural district. The following is the copy of the letter The Dolgel- ley Rural District Council have for a long time past received repeated complaints from ratepayers and residents in their district of the manner in which the Barmouth Urban District Council convey and deal with the street sweepings, house refuse, con- tents of privies, &c., from Barmouth, which are removed to the rural district. The offensive matter is conveyed along the main road in open carts without proper provision to prevent soakage ct to prevent offensive effluvia from spreading, causing a serious nuisance to persons residing along the route, and to persons travelling along the road. These com- plaints, in summer especially, have been frequent, and are, in the opinion of this Council, well founded. Representations have from time to time been made to the Barmouth Urban Council, without result, and even so late as Saturday last (the date of a previous Council meeting) two members of this Council, on their way to the meeting, met the cart conveying the offensive refuse which was then without cover, and the contents giving out a very unpleasant smell. I enclose a copy of the last communication to the Barmouth Council, and their reply, and I am directed to invoke the assistance of your honourable. Board to put an end to the nuisance arising in this district from the convey- ance of refuse from their district." The Local Government had forwarded the above letter to the Barmouth Council, who had replied as follows Referring to your letter of the 28th ult.. enclosing copy of a letter addressed to your honourable Board by the Dolgelley Rural District Council, I am now directed by this Council to state in reply thereto, that they consider the complaints of the Rural District Council entirely groundless. As will be seen by the agreement, this Council has made every provision for the disposal of the town refuse in such a way as not to create a nuisance to anybody. As the Rural District. Council have been more than once pressed to inform the Council of any evidence they have in support of their allega- tions that the terms of this agreement have not been carried out by the contractor, but up to the present they have declined to do anything beyond making public charges of a general character, and this Council cannot help feeling that the Rural Council's action in this respect is anything hut fair. As this agreement shown, the contractor is only to cart away the ordinary street sweepings and house refuse, and it is, to the best of this Council's information and belief, grossly untrue to state that he ever carries away the contents of privies from the town, and I would particularly invite your honourable Board's attention to the Rural Council's conduct in making public a charge of this sort without bringing forward one tittle of evidence in support of it.—W. GEORGE." The Chairman, commenting on this matter, said that it was not true that contents of privies were carried into the Rural District Council. Mr Cadwaladr Roberts said he would not like the Council to act unfairly towards the Banuouth Council, and he thought that every means should be adopted to inquire into the matter. It was therefore passed, on Mr Roberts' proposi- tion, to adjourn the matter till the next meeting, when, perhaps, more evidence would be forth- coming. A: this stage of the proceedings the Chairman asked permission to retire, as he wished to return home by the mid-day train. This was granted, and Mr Cadwaladr Roberts was elected to the chair. GARTHLSA. ims matter was again Drougut forward. The Chairman said that the Medical Otiioer had written to the various newspapers concerning his report on this place, which was owned by Sir Richard Wyatt. The Chairman added that as he understood it, the doctor had intended asking the Council that day to pass a resolution to bring an action against Sir Richard Wyatt for not complying with the in- structions of the Council, and by so doing the doctor would have an opportunity of proving on oath what he had mentioned in his report, viz., the insanitary condition of the house, owing to the place being often flooded by the tide. The matter was adjourned for a month, as Dr. Hugh Jones was not present. REPORT OF SANITARY COMMITTEE. The Clerk distributed to each member a printed Mr. J. Lloyd Jones, Mr. Lewis Lewis, Dr. J. Jones, Dolgelley, and Mr. C. Williams (chairman). The Committee met to consider Dr. Richard Jones annual report on the vita! statistics in the county. Dr. Jones having pointed out in his report the in- jurious effects of damp and badly ventilated houses upefc the mortality from heart diseases, the committee noted with satisfaction that some im- provement was made in this direction, in the way of providing better dwellings for the working classes. The improvement was especially notice- able at Dolgf^W, Although Infant mortality is less by 11*1 per 1,000 than the corresponding average for sengland and Wales (178-4), still the average for Urban Districts was equal to that of England and Wales, and this points to the decrease having taken place in the Rural Districts. The committee strongly impressed on the County Council the need of giving serious attention to this most important item, and of carrying out Dr. Jones' instructions.—Dr. Jones' report, which was pregnant with information and advice, and Dr. Hugh Jones' and other medical gentlemen's valuable reports, brought out a remark from the committee that this year's annual report almost formed in itself a treatise on Hygiene, and they strongly urged on the County Council to have the teaching of Hygiene and Sanitation established in the different schools.

THESE Powders have for years enjoyed a large sale, and will be found superior to any others for promoting sound health, clean legs, and glossy coat. For preventing worms, coughs, colds, grease, cracked-heels and swellings of the legs they are unsqualled. They stimilate the spirits and promote the appetite. If your Horses are looking poor, With staring coats, bad appetites and lack of spirit, try these Condition Powders, and they will, with- u hindering the Horse frefcn working, gradually but certainly gain the desired effect.
