FOOTBALL ABERYSTWYTH COUNTY SCHOOL r TREGARON COUNTY SCHOOL. At Aberystwyth, on Saturday 10th. inst. Aberystwyth winning the toss elected to plav with wind. Tregaron started the attack and after some play in Aberystwyth quarters secured a corner, which was, however, safely put out of harms way, and Aberystwyth began to attack, and Tregaron were compelled to concede a corner. Epworth put the ball right'into the goal but it was safely cleared. A few minutes later Epwortb got in a good centre which D. J. Jones headed through the goal with the help of one of the visitors' backs. After another corner conceded to Aberystwyth, rreg-r -)n got away and going dow:: the field equalised with a good shot. for the rest of the first-half Aberyst- wyth did most of the attacking, though Tregaron several times broke away and made dangerous rushes down the field. On the Aberystwyth side Peake made several good shots at goal and was finally rewarded by scoring the second goal for Aberystwytb, Tile defence of the Tregaron goal keeper was very sound, and at times brilliant, and nothing further was scored till half-time. After kalf-time Aberystwyth still pressed though the s wiit and vigorous attacks of the Tregaron forwards tested the powers of the Aberystwyth defence, G. D. Ellis being specially in evidence. A little later, from a free kick about 15 yards out the bel1 was passed to Ellis who made a very good attempt at goal, which was, however, safely negotiated by the Tregaron custodian. Tregaron then took up the attack again, and Morris repulsed one or two stiff shots, but J. Davies got the ball well away, the halves transferred to Epworth, who put in a good shot, which went through the goal off one of the visitors backs, the second so scored. After this Tregaron played up very hard, and Morris only saved his goal by conceding a corner, which gave him another stiff shot to which, however, he showed himself equal. Three corners running to the credit of Tregaron followed, but at last D. E. Evans cleared, and the home forwards by good combined play took the ball back into the visitors' quarters. No further score was ma(-,Ie,,t fast and well contested game terminating in favour of the Aberystwyth team by three goals to one.

JL DOLGELLEY. RURAL DISTRICT COUNCIL. The monthly meeting of the Dolgelley Rural Dis- trict Council was held on Saturday last at the County Hall, Mr John Evans, Barmouth, presiding. There were also present Messrs John Edwards, John Roberts, and Griffith Richards, Brithdir and Islawrdref Charles Williams and Ellis Williams, Llanaber Richard Jones, Llanelltyd Morris G. Williams, Llanenddwyne; Hywel Pugh, Llanfach- reth; Meyrick Roberts, Llanfihangel; Cadwaladr Roberts, Llangetynin; and Owen Jones, Llany- mawddwy; with W. R. Davies (clerk), W. R. Richardson (deputy clerk), Dr Hugh Jones (medical officer), Mr Jones (sanitary inspector). THfl XJTE DR JOS ES. A communication wo* read from the family of the late Dr Edward Jones acknowledging the vote of condolence passed by the Board at the previous meeting with them in their sad and lamentable be- reavement. A REQUEST. The Medical Officer asked the permission of the Council to have access to all letters in the per- session of the Clerk relating to his department, and a resolution was passed acceding to his re- quest. DRAINAGE OF ARERGYNOLWY. Mr Meyrick Roberts said the dry earth system which the Council had decided upon, had now been carried out at Abergynolwyn, and he wished to know who the Council would appoint to see that the closets were properly and regularly cleaned out. The Sanitary Inspector suggested that they rIg appoint a scavenger to do the work. Mr. Meyrick Roberts proposed a resolution to this effect, and this was seconded. Mr. M. G. Williams wished to know why every place was not treated the same. The dry earth system had been adopted at Llwyngwril as well. He would move as an amendment that they do noth- ing at Abergynolwyn unless the same was done in every other place. Mr. Meyrick Roberts said he had carried out the instructions of the Council and had spent a great deal of money. The Medical Officer urged that the Council should adopt the same system in every village in the Council's district. After further discussion, Mr. M. Roberts' resolu- tion was carried, and it was also stated that similar provision would be made for other places upon the Surveyor reporting that the dry earth system had been properly carried out. DISPOSAL OF BARMOUTH REFUSE. The communication from the Local Government Board enclosing the Barmouth Urban Council's reply to the complaint made by this Council of refuse being taken through the streets in uncovered carts, again came up for consideration. The letter, the contents of which have already been published in these columns, was to the effect that the com- plaint of the Rural District Council was entirely groundless, and the agreement which they enclosed would show that the Urban Council bad made every provision possible for the disposal of the town refuse, so as not to create a nuisance. It was also grossly untrue to say that the contents of privies were ever carried away in uncovered carts. The District Council also condemned the Rural Council's conduct in making public charges of this sott to the detriment of the town. The Chairman said it was evidently incorrect to state that the contents of the privies were carried away as stated. The Clerk asked, if the contents were not taken away, where did they go ? The Chairman said there were none of those kind of privies at Barmouth. The Clerk All I know is that there used to be a lot. Mr. Charles Williams said he was one of those who complained of this matter, and he thought he was the one to bring it before the Council in the first place. He had brought the same complaint for years, and the complaint was that they generally carried the refuse along the road in the rural dis- trict in uncovered carts. He did not know any- thing as to the contents of the privies, and he had never said a word about that at all. But he had met on scores of occasions-and he had plenty of witnesses and his own servant to prove it-the refuse carts going along the road without any covers, and on windy days the contents were blown about. People had called at his house to complain of it, and Mr. Jones, the surveyor, could prove that he bad complained several times when the refuse came to Dyffryn. And he knew Mr. Jones had sent a man to Dyffryn with lime and such things. Then the stuff was taken to Egryn, and he still complained, although the chairman had said that he (the speaker) had not. As to that he could only say that a minister of religion bad said a lie. He had complained always,, and that was his only complaint. Plenty of people bad seen the carts going along the roads without anything to keep the stuff in its place. Since the last complaint the matter had been remedied, and the carts were supplied with covers, but he still thought that the Barmouth Council's letter was very unfair. The Chairman: It is untrue that the contractor carries away the contents of the privies through the street. Mr. Charles Williams: I say nothing about that one way or the other. Mr. Cadwaladr Roberts said he thought it was their duty to protest against what had been said of them as a Council by the Barmouth Council. He remembered the time when the refuse was carted to Glandwr, and there were complaints about it then. He thought it entirely wrong to criticise an individual member of this Council, and he also thought it was an unfair charge, and that they should protest against it. They had written to the 11 y Barmouth Council several times-not in a big, official way—whenever complaints were made. He considered they could not do less than protest against the action of that Council and the remarks made by the Chairman and others in the meeting. Mr. Meyrick Roberts said it seemed that Bar- mouth were denying the things which they had themselves confessed. They had letters in their possession acknowledging the nuisance, and promising to remedy it. He was sorry to see the personal references made, and also to see the position taken by the Chairman. The matter could have been put in a more gentlemanly spirit and without making personal references, especially when the man himself knew that the nuisance existed. Mr. R. G. Williams, said they must admit some- one was at fault. The Barmouth Council had said they did not cart the contents of the privies, and he did not think they did do that. He thought it was a mistake on the part of their Clerk. There was nothing mentioned about that, and he thought they ought to write stating that it was a mistake that it had been included in the complaint. The Chairman That is the mistake. Mr. John Roberts proposed that they adjourn the matter for a month, and that a committee be appointed to draft a reply to be sent to the Bar- mouth Council. Mr. Meyrick Roberts seconded. Mr. Cadwaladr Roberts thought this matter meant a lot to Barmouth now that the summer season was approaching, and was it not possible to finish with it that day. Mr. John Roberts thought what thev should have in mind was the honour of this Council. The Chairman said, what the Barmouth Council complained of was the allegation that the contents of privies had been carted through the streets. The Sanitary Inspector said Major Best was prepared to come forward, if additional evidence was required, to prove that the refuse carts had been seen going along the roads uncovered. Mr. John Roberts'resolution was then put to the meeting and carried. BONTDDU WATER AND DRAINAGE. A communication was read from the Llanaber School Board stating that the construction of the drain at Bontddu School would now be carried out. The Llanaber Parish Council also wrote to the effect that they had taken the earliest opportunity to take practical measures to obtain a proper water supply for Bontddu. Plans and specifications had been asked for in December last. but in consequence of the surveyor's illness they had not yet been received. TYNYCORNEL, TALYLLYN. Mr. Richard H. Colley, Bridgenorth, wrote stating that he would feel greatly obliged if the Council would consider the importance of having the work of repairs at Tynycornel. Talyllyn, done at once before the hotel had visitors. The Sanitary Inspector said he had seen the agent of the property, who had promised to have the work done forthwith. DYFFRYN WATER SUPPLY. The Local Government Board sent a letter in reference to the Council's application to borrow £2.500 for works of water supply for the village of Dyffryn. In returning the plans,, the Board re quested that the dimensions might be shown there- on in figures. It was also not their practice t. assent to a water main of less than three inches in diameter being put down, and they would, there- fore, require that the two-and-a-half inch main pro- vided for in the estimate should be substituted by a three inch main. The Board further wished to know the minimum depth of cover intended to be provided for the mains, and whether any pro- visional agreement bad been enterccUnto for the acquisition of the land required. An analysis of the water would also be required, and as the oapacity of the proposed reservoir exceeded 100,000 gallons two months' notice should be given of in- tention to erect. The Medical Officer remarked that an analysis of the water had been taken. It was decided that the requirements of the Board be complied within each instance. MEDICAL OFFICER'S REPORT. Dr Hugh Jones, medical officer of health, in his monthly report of the sanitary condition of the district, stated as follows :—" On February 1st, I examined Graig, in the parish of Brithdir and Is- lawrdref. This house was in a dilapidated state throughout, the floors, walls, roof, and windows being most defective, the sleeping rooms had no ceilings, and the roof let in water freely. They are also not properly ventilated, as the skylights in the roof are not made to open. On the 12th February. I examined Hafodygoeswen-ucha in the same par- ish. The sleeping apartments upstairs were quite unfit for use as such. They have no proper win- dows ant! no ceilings. Tke roof above them is de- fective and the walls were damp. There is a sleep- chamber on the ground floor with defective parti- tions, and thus unsufficiently protected owing to its communication with the outer air through an opening in an adjoining wall. The apartment has no fireplace. The floor of the dairy is also bad. There are no eaves-troughs. On March 5th, the sanitary inspector and 1 visited Aberllefeni and Corris. We examined a terrace of houses called Blue Cottages, Aberllefeni, in one of which a case of typhoid fever had been recently notified to me. There is a back bedroom in each of these houses with no ventilation whatever, as there is no fire- place, and the window is not made to open. A number of fowl-pens were arranged immediately behind the ;houses, and in my opinion in too close proximity to them. I also noticed that a collection of foul water behind these houses was most objectionable. I must also remind the Council that I have previously reported unfavourably upon the water supply of these cottages, which has not been improved since, and is still open to suspicion. This consists of a small water-spout in an adjoining field, and its source seems to lie underneath the bed of a small brook, the water in which is most seriously polluted by cowsheds, pigstyes, and other objectional things. As regards the water supply of Blue Cottages, the Council decided to call upon Captain Price, the owner, to improve the same, and also to serve notices in respect of the other sanitary defects mentioned in the report. SANITARY INSPECTOR'S REPORT. The Sanitary Inspector reported that the work of compiling the reports and result by the medical officer and himself were not yet ready. The journal, however, contained the record of upward of 70 cases, and the money spent by private in- dividuals in remedying nuisances, and improving house property far exceeded £ 1,000. There were about 15 or 20 cases pending, and the money that was likely to be spent upon these in re-building dwelling houses, &c., and including the water works of Dyffryn, Llwyngwril, Bontddu, and Aber- gynolwyn would amount Ito £ 5,000 or £ 6,000. The work sometimes seemed to be going on slow, but he could assure them that a great deal was being done to improve the sanitary,condition of property generally. The Inspector also spoke of the great assistance given them in carrying out their work, and referred especially to the Corris Parish Council, which last year spent upwards of Z200 in improv- ing the water supply and in other works. The Medical Officer also paid high testimony to the work of the Parish Councils. On the motion of Mr. Cadwaladr Roberts, the clerk was directed to convey the thanks of the Council to the Corris Parish Council for the service they had rendered in connection with the water supply at that p'aN. The re-appointment of Mr. Jones as sanitary inspector for three years was agreed to. GARTH ISAF. Sir Richard H. Wyatt's letter, re^-Aing coru. J plaints made by the Medical Officer as to the in. sanitary condition of the premises known as Garth Isaf, and which was read at the meeting of the Council two months ago, was considered. The Medical Officer pointed out that the letter stated that his report was "simply a libel," which meant that it was untrue. The letter proceeded to state that the house had been occupied for 50years without any complaints from the tenants. Dr. Jones asserted that if testimony was required he could put two tenants into the witness box to prove that they had made complaints. Mr John Edwards said the tide bad been into the house only a few days before, and when ho was there the following day there were still signs of it. The Medical Officer said Sir Richard Wyatt Ihad also stated in his letter that he should have an opportunity of proving on oath what he had said in the report. The letter was written over two months ago, and he had not beard from him yet. He was prepared to put witnesses into the box, and the Council could take whatever measures they liked to have the defects put right. The Clerk then read the extract from the report dealing with the premises in question, and also the letter to Sir Richard Wyatt which accompanied it, the letter containing the request that the sanitary deficiencies to which attention is called may re- ceive speedy remedy." The Chairman (Mr Charles Williams) remarked that there was nothing nasty in that. The Medical Officer: But that is the evil, this letter in reply. Mr. John Edwards proposed that formal notice be served upon Sir Richard Wyatt to have the necessary repairs at Garth Isaf carried out within three months. This was seconded by Mr Edward Roberts, and unanimously carried, the Chairman remarking that Sir Richard Wyatt could then take whatever steps he liked. LLWYNGWRIL WATER SUPPLY. The Clerk presented an agreement, to be entered into with Mr Gillart, giving the terms upon which be was to act for the Council in the matter of the Llwyngwril water scheme. The terms were 5 per cent on the entire cost, and a like commission upon any extras. Mr Cadwaladr Roberts pointed out that no time was given in the agreement as to when the work should be completed. It was then decided that the agreement be de- ferred to the next meeting, a date as to the com- pletion of the work to be arranged in the mean- time. HIGHWAY BOARD. A meeting of the Highway Board was held immediately after the Rural Council meeting, Mr. Charles Williams, Hengwm, presiding. A communication was read from Mr. W. W. Williams stating he noticed that the Fronallt foot- path at Dolgelley bad been widened without his consent, and that it was proposed to put a stile on it. He objected to this being done without his consent, and wished to have an explanation why the work had been carried out without such being obtained. The surveyor (Mr. Richard Jones) ex- plained that Mr. Williams was mistaken in thinking that the path bad been widened. It had only been cleared of briars and stones, and repaired to its original width.—The Clerk (Mr. R. Jones Griffith) was directed to reply to Mr. Williams to this effect. A letter was read from Mr. Williams and all the adjoining owners consenting to put the Coed- ystumgwem-road, Dyffryn, in proper repair, pro- vided the other owners in the locality would accept equal responsibility.—The Clerk was directed to write again to the several owners asking if they were prepared to do the repairs, and to receive a reply by the next meeting.
