Charles, colliery contractor, 17, Wyndham-street, Nantymoel, and Dd. M. Charles, coachman, of Pandy-road, Aber- kenfig, were summoned at the instance of the Bridgend and Cowbridge Board of Guardians why they should not contribute towards the support of their mother who is chargeable to the Union. Mr R. H. Cox appeared for the board, Mr Scale appeared for the defendant William, and Mr T. J. Hughes for Dd Charles. Mr Jones, relieving officer, stated that the mother was 78 years of age and bedridden. She received 5/4 a week. The defendant David was a coachman to Dr Pringle, getting 25s a week, and he under- stood that he would come in for a freehold cottage and garden on his mother's death. The property was at present a ruin. He was married and, witness believed, had children. The other brother William was a contractor at the Wyndham Colliery, employing over 20 men. lie was married and had grown up children. [KrFrIj'g* By Mr Hughes He believed David had paid whatever the Guardians had called on him to pay, at first 2s and afterwards Is a week. The garden was enjoyed by a married daughter with whom the mother resided. Mr Wm Punter, relieving officer, stated that he knew William, who appeared to be well off. He drove a horse and trap about, and had two cottages, worth, he believed £150 each. He produced a statement of defendant's earnings which showed that he employed 25 men including his two sons and their total earning for the six weeks ending 19th May was £215 3s 7d. For the defence, Jane May, sister of the defendants, said David paid Is and Wm 2s a weak. William visited his mother nearly every month, and seldom empty- handed while David had only been to see her about three or four times during 13 years. An order was made upon each of the defendants to pay 2/6 and the costs.

MARWOLAETH A CHLADD- EDIGAETH Miss JOANNAH ESAIAS, Mynydd Cynffig. Cymerodd yr amgylchiad torcalonus hwnle dydd Sul, Mehefin y 3ydd, a hyny yn ddisymwth. Yr oedd yn anhawdd i gredu'r Saith ei bod wedi marw. Machludodd haul ei bywyd yn gynar iawn, o herwydd nid oedd ond 11.1 mlwydd oed. Drylliwyd blodeuyn hardd yn nghanol gogoniant ei brydferth- wen, ond erys ei arogl er i ni golli golwg ar ei dlysni; mae y syniad fod ein cyfeilies wedi dianc oddiwrtbym yn ddolur i'n calon. Cymmerodd y newydd galarus am ei marwolaeth ni gyda sydyn- rwydd a barodd i'n calon gyflymu yn ei churiadau, a dygodd eiriau Shelley ar < Gyfnewidioldeb i'n cof— The flower that smiles to-day To-morrow dies All that we wish to stay, Tempts and then flies. What is this world's delIght P Lightning that mocks the night, Brief even so bright. Yr oedd wedi bwriadu llawer i fod yn y gymanfa ganu yn Ngwmogwy dydd Llun, ond yn lie hyny hi gafodd ei symud i'r gymanfa fawr, i uno yn yr anthem fendigedig hono, Teilwng yw yr Oen "— Rhosyn teg yn ngardd cerddoriaeth Ydoedd hi yr eneth Ion, Talent, rhinwedd, a pheroriaeth, Dlws addurnai nodwedd hon Mewn rhagorion a thlysineb, Eithriad ydoedd yn ei dydd Mun brydferthaf—gwenau serchog Deg chwareuai ar ei grudd.

Felly y mae hyder cryf ynom ei bod erbyn hyn yn medi o ffrwyth ei llafur, wedi el. symud oddiwrth ei gwaith at ei gwobr, ac yn feddianol ar y goron sydd yn addawedig yn y gwirionedd Dwyfol, Bydd ifyddlon hyd angeu, a mi a roddaf i ti goron y bywyd.' Cymcrodd yr angladd Ie y dydd Mercher canlynol, Mehefin y 6fed, 1894, pan y daeth tyrfa fawr a pharchus ynghyd i dalu y gymwynas olaf iddi. Rhoddwyd pregeth bwrpasol ar yr achlysur t-an y Parch. J. Thomas, Pontypridd, hen weinidog Pisgah am flynyddau. Cymerodd y Parch. D. Williams, Elim, rhan yn y gwasanaeth hefyd yn Nghapel Pisgah, Pil. Wedi hyny awd ai chorph i fynwent Eglwys Maudlam i'w gladdu, ac annerchwyd y gynulleidfa wrth y bedd eto gan y brodyr uchod yn deimladwy iawn.

MARWOLAETH MRS HOPKINS,ABERKENFIG Bu farw Mrs Hopkins Mehefin 12fed, achladdwyd hi Mehefin 18eg. Yr oedd yn 81 mlwydd oed. Bu am flynyddoedd o dan law drwm cystudd, eto ni ddirmygai yr Arglwydd. Bu yn aelod ffyddlon yn Eglwys Trinity, a theimlir ei bod yn golled ar ei hoi, er ei bod am fisoedd bellach yn clywed swn tonau yr lorddonen, eto yr oedd ei chrefydd wedi ei gwneuthur yn ddiofn ac yn ostyngedig ei hysbryd. Yr oedd mewn parch uchel gan bawb a'i hadnabyddai, a phrawf o hyn oedd y nifer lluosog ddaeth i dalu y gymwynas olaf iddi. Gosodwyd ei gweddillion i orwedd yn mynwent Eglwys Llanilid, Pencoed. Siaradwyd ar lan y bedd gan Councillor W. Howell, J.P., Pencoed, a'r Parch J. R. Williams, bugail yr ymadawedig. Yr Iesu a hoffai Mrs Hopkins mor fawr fyddo'n gysur ac yn nodded i'w phlant.

TRADE RISKS AT PORTH- CAWL. A DOUBTFUL ASSIGNMENT. At Bridgend County Court on Friday last, Judge Williams heard an action brought by Mr George Sibbering Jones, timber-merchant, Porthcawl, against Mrs Catherine Jones and Mrs Mary Richards: Portlicawl, to recover £.10 under a deed of assignment. Mr Downes, barrister-at-law, Cardiff (instructed by Messrs Randall and Cay), was for the plaintiff, and Mr Glascodine (instructed by Mr T. J. Hughes), appeared for defendants. The case had been adjourned from the previous court in order to join the defendant Mrs Richards to the action. The claim was in respect of timber supplied by plaintiff to a Porthcawl carpenter, William Turner, who was building under contract a house and shop at Porthcawl for the defendant Mrs Richards, for whom her daughter, Mrs David, was acting as agent in the matter. Plaintiif only supplied the timber on receiving a written order from Turner to Mrs David, requesting her to pay over to plaintiff such of the instalments due to him (Turner), under the contract up to £-10. This money, instead of being paid over to plaintiff, was received by Turner, and plaintiff now sued under the order in question. The defence was that the order did not constitute a leo-al assignment, and the whole of the case turned upon the question of its validity. At the outset technical objections were raised by Mr Glascodine to the admission of evidence as to the order, the paper itself not being forthcoming. Mrs David deposed on oath that she had returned the paper to Turner a few days after receiving it from Mr Jones, but Turner went into the box and denied ever having received it, and a Witness named Burnell spoke to Mrs David showing him the document some time after the date on which she said she had given it up. The Judge decided that in the circumstances secondary evidence of the document was admissable, and evidence of the order was given by the plaintiff from a press copy. He fully explained the order to Mrs David, and on leaving he said I distinctly understand you accept this order,' to which she replied 0, yes, Mr Jones, you need not fear.'— Considerable legal argument took place as to the binding force of the order, and, after a hearing occupying several hours, His Honour came to the decision that the order was not an assignment within the meaning of the Act, and gave judgment for the defendants with costs, but granted an appli- cation to stay all execution until after the next court, in order that plaintiff might have the oppor- tunity of raising an appeal.

SERVANTS' CHARACTERS. A good housekeeper would never think of en- gaging a servant without a character, and she would want that reference from a genuine source, now we (The Honiocea Co.) do not ask the British public to take us on our own statement, but we publish testimonials such as no proprietor of Patent Medicines has ever received; simply be- cause no remedy has ever done the WOKK of HOMOCEA, for it "TOUCHES THE SPOT." THE HON. Mrs. THOMPSON desires to testify the great value of "Homocea" as a cure for Neuralgia, having received great benefit from using it; Mrs. Thompson therefore has great pleasure in strongly recommending it, and in allowing her testimony to be publically used.—Aclcworth Moor Top, Pontefract. T Hillside, Bracknell, Berks. LADY KEANE has much pleasure in recommending "Homocea" as an invaluable remedy for Rheumatism, Cuts, Bruises, Piles, Sprains, &c. she thinks so highly of it that she would not lie without it in the house, as it has entirely cured her of Rheumatism and other ailments. The Rev. J. WILLIAM S. BUTCHER, 35, Park Road East, Birkenhead, writes:—"I have great plea- sure in complying with your request and in putting in writing what I have already said by word of mouth. I was much inconvenienced by a very irritating species of eczema. Several remedies that I have tried failed to give me more than a very temporary relief. I finally tried 'Homocea,' with happiest results. The relief was almost instantaneous, and, what is more to the point, the soothing effect remained, and a complete cure resulted.—Yours truly, J. WILLIAM BUTCHEK." "Hoy lake. Dear Sirs,—I want to thank you for that wonderful preparation, Homocea,' which we use for about everything but lately my little girl had a bad ringworm on the head, and my doctor said her hair would have to be cut close. But I preferred using the 'Homocea,' and in four days it was quite well, and the doctor said I ought to give you a testimonial, and I think so too.—Yours truly, M. ALDRED." All wholesale houses stock HOMOCEA. It can be obtained from Chemists and others at Is. l^d. or 2s. 9d. per box, or will be sent by post for Is. 3d. and 3s. from the wholesale agency, 21, Hamilton Square, Birkenhead.

BRIDGEND RURAL SANI- TARY AUTHORITY. ST. BRIDES AND SOUTHERNDOWN WATER SUPPLY. THE INSPECTOR'S APPOINTMENT. The ordinary meeting of the Bridgend and Cow- bridge Rural Sanitary Authority was held on Saturday. Mr J. Blandy Jenkins presided, and there were also present Mr Edmund Lewis, vice- chairman, Messrs N. Hopkin. T. Rees, T. John, Llanblethian, J Edwards. J. Board, D. Rees, Penllyne, the clerk (Mr R H Cox), the inspector (Mr R Leyshon), Dr Randall (medical officer), the water engineer (Mr J Hurley), the sub-inspector (Mr JW Edwards). WATER SUPPLIES. PONTYCLUN.—The terms of the Pontypridd Rural Sanitary Anthority for continuing to supply River- row, &c., for three months beyond the term of their notice were considered as somewhat excessive, and it was understood that the (Bridgend) Authority would undertake to make the necessary provision. Incidentally it transpired that no rent had been collected by the authority for the water since it was laid, and instructions were directed to be given to collector to at once remedy this omission. ABEEKENFIG.—The Clerk was directed to prepare an agreement with a Mrs Lewis for diverting a stream which runs through her land for the purpose of supplying Fountain-road. ST BEIDES AND SOUTHEENDOWN.—Mr W. Hopkin submitted the outline of a scheme which the com- mittee suggested should be laid before Lord Dunraven for supplying St Brides Major, Southern- down, Dunraven Castle. The proposal was that the supply should be drawn from Schwill and carried by a main across the Down to Groes farm where* a reservoir should be constructed, the supply being oonducted thence to St Brides Major, Southerndown, and Dunraven Castle. The work it was proposed should be carried out by the authority, the cost of the main to Groes and the reservoir there being borne by Lord Dunraven. The Chairman suggested that expert assistance should be obtained to formulate a proper scheme. The Vice-chairman thought such help should be paid for jointly between Lord Duuraven and the authority. The Clerk read a communication from the Local Government Board stating as the result of the local inquiry which had been held they considered it in- cumbent upon the authority to rse every endeavour to provide an adequate supply, which they suggested could be obtained either from the Bridgend Water Company's source or from the spring at Broughton near Wick. They also recommended that negotia- tions should be reopened with Lord Dunraven with the view of carrying out a joint scheme for the supply of St Brides, Southerndown, and Dunraven Castle. On the motion of the Vice chairman it was referred to the committee already appointed to formulate a scheme. THE INSPECTOR'S APPOINTMENT. On the motion of the Chairman a proposition was made to re-appoint the inspector (Mr Leyshon) until the contemplated division of the district took place. The Vice-chairman moved as an amendment the re-appointment of Mr Leyshon for one year. He thought in fairness to an old official they ought to place him on the same footing as the other officers. It was quite competent for the authority to re- appoint Mr Leyshon for one of three years. He had obtained the opinion of two high authorities on the question, namdv, Mr Corry Grant and Mr Cyril Dodd. Mr J Edwards seconded the motion. The Chairman said unquestionably Mr Leyshon's appointment was not on the same footing as that of clerk and medical officers. He doubted very much whether the Local Goverument Board would sanction the re-appointment for the term named. The Vice-chairman hoped the Authority would not deal hardly with an officer who happened to be under their sole control. Even if the Department vetoed the re-appointment he did not mind as long as the Authority had done its duty in the matter. The Chairman I differ from you, I do not think it is our duty I think we are stretching a point. The amendment on being put was carried by ten to two. Mr Hopkin thereupon moved, and Mr T Jenkins seconded a further amendment that the reappoint- ment be for three years. The Chairman: I must say I think this is jobbery. Mr T. Rees I think we ought to have Mr Walter Morgan chairman here (laughter). The amendment was lost by a large majority.

HEATH & SONS, CARDIFF, PONTYPRIDD, AND LONDON, J>IANOFORTE AND QRGAN }\{ERCHANTS. (From South Wales Daily Neivs, 9th January, 1894). VERDICT OF NINE HUNDRED."—Under this title Messrs R. J. Heath and Sons, Queen-setret, Cardiff, pianoforte makers, organ builders, and music warehousemen, have collected an imposing array of testimonials and Press opinions relating to the quality of the musical instruments supplied by them. The firm is so well known in Cardiff, and, indeed, throughout South Wales and the West of England, that it is hardly necessary here to dwell upon its influence and commanding position. This collection of testimonials serves, however, to do something more than certify to the excellence of the instruments furnished by "Messrs Heath and Sons. It shows, in a sense, how steady is the growth among the general public of a desire for a knowledge of music, and how increasingly numerous, even in the homes of the working classes, are pianos, organs, and harmoniums. The great majority of the letters in this list relate to pianos, and while many of them have reference to most costly instruments contain- ng all the latest improvements supplied to the well- to-do, the greater number relate to serviceable in- struments pnrchased for the homes of the wane-earn- ing portion of the community. This growing love for so refining an art as music is a most favourable sign. For though in the Principality music has for generations been the chief recreation of the people, it has for the most part been choral music in connec- tion with churches and chapels that has occupied attention. Instrumental music is now, however, re- ceiving its fair share of attention, and all those in true sympathy with the art must trust that the movement will go steadily onward. These testi- monials have been received from every quarter of the Principality, while not a few come from other portions of the United Kingdom, and some from South America, India, and other distant countries. All speak most favourably of Messrs Heath's business methods as well as of their instruments. R. J. HEATH & SONS INVITE INSPECTION.
