Colonel Sarson, Major H.

Winterly temperature and gloomy skies have not encouraged visitors to patronise the North Wales coast much this season, but the warmer weather of the past few days may effect a remedy. Nothing sensational must be expected until after the Coronation. The Railway Company will have to con- tribute pretty stiffly towards celebrating the Coronation in some districts.

Of this amount, the North-Western will pay nearly ^30 The Llanrwst Urban Council decided to clean the exterior of the old Town Hall with the fire hose. All the old signboards and placards will be removed permanently, and the chairman's suggestion that they should all be burnt to celebrate the Coronation, will probably be adopted! It is rumoured some of the work is "au fait accompli!" Some interesting discussions transpired at the Meat Traders' Conference at Rhyl. Councillor Ramsden, one of the most venerable and prominent traders in the kingdom, who is as well known in America as he is in Engiand, delivered an interest- ing address touching upon the restrictions upon Argentine cattle, which had been one of the direct causes of raising the price of meat in this country. The public slaughter-house at Pwliheli was re- ported to be a disgrace to the county, and a resolu- tion was passed dealing with the custom of auctioneers in selling animals with keep. The rumour that 'strong opposition would be offered to the proposal of the Prestatyn Council to erect new offices and a fire station, was not verified at the inquiry itself. No dis- cordant note was struck, and the inspector was more than genial. He offered friendly advice, suggested improvements which the Council will t,9 probably take heed of, cracked a few jokes, described the weather in London, which was "beastly," and then departed, remarking that he would do all he could to put matters through. It was quite a cheerful gathering. Mr J. Watkin Lumley is nothing if not original, and the extraordinary—to put it mildly-attitude he adopted 'at the High Sheriff's luncheon at Ruthin will probably enhance his originality. The luncheon was a private one, and for a guest to rise up and remind his host that the toast of the King had not been honoured, was to disregard good manners. We believe, however, that Mr Lumley acted from purely patriotic. motives, and the company probably thought so when they informally drank his Majesty's health. The remarkable effusions from the pen of Gwilym Cowlyd, the so-called Chief Bard Positive of Wales, addressedi to Mr Chamberlain and the Earl Marshal, will be read with astonish- ment and amusement. The venerable bard has announced his intention of attending the Coronation for the purpose of crowning King Edward "King of Kings," and conferring upon him the title of "Iorwerth Frenin." The only clifficulty confronting "Gwilym Cowlyd" is no't as to whether he will be admitted or not, but as to "what he shall wear," and probably the ladies will sympathise with him on this score. If he had his own way, the gay and wonderful costumes of all the foreign potentates would pale into insignificance in comparison with the unique attire of the Welsh Bard. But, we are sadly afraid that there will be no room in West- minster Abbey for the respected "chief." He had ibetter "coronate;" and wish King Edward luck on his own native heath.

[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENTS.] Prince and Princess Henry of Pless have taken No. 7, Hyde Park-street, for the season, and will arrive in London on June 19. Major-General the Earl of Dundonald is to arrive in Canada about the middle of next month to take up his new appointment as Commander of the Dominion troops. The death is announced of Dr William Roberts, Pontblyddin, who had for a long period of years been one of the medical officers of the Hawarden Union, and who was in his 62nd year. Dr Roberts was well-known in masonic circles in North Wales, being a past master of the Sir Watkin Lodge. It is understood that Commander J. F. Lobb, R.N., who was appointed by the Board of Trade in 1892 as captain of the steamer Richmond for the inspection and supply of lighthouses in the Baha- mas, has been appointed to succeed the late Com- mander E. Scobell Clapp, R.E., as the King's harbour master at Holyhead. The Marquis of Anglesey has subscribed £5 and Lord Boston £3 3s. towards the Coronation festivities to be held on the 26th instant in the parish of Llanddanielfab, Anglesey. Mr H. Dod Lynes, of Garthmeilie, Corwen (son of Colonel Lynes), has been appointed to the agency of the Duke of Westminster's Welsh estates, in succession to the late Mr Lester Smith, J.P. The Marquis of Anglesey has consented to act as president at the closing meeting of the Royal National Eisteddfod of Wales, which is to be held at Bangor in September. The Marquis of Bute has been approached with the view to his presidini at one of the earlier meetings. The Rev S. Baring-Gould is making a short tour of North Wales. He stayed for a few days last week at Cefn, St. Asaph, and on Sunday preached at St. Mary's, Cefn. The Duke of Westminster has consented to pre- side at the festival dinner of the Cabdrivers' Benevolent Association in London. Major-General H. H. Parr, of the North-western Military District, was included in their Majesties' dinner party at Aldershot on Sunday evening. Mr William Grifflth Williams, of Chester, has received the appointment of assistant official re- ceiver for the Liverpool district in succession to the late Mr Samuel Ring. Mr Williams has been for the last six years assistant to the official receiver for Chester and the North Wales district. An afternoon party has been given by Lord and Lady Penrhyn at Mortimer House, Halkin-street, to a number of the colonial visitors now in London. The Blue Hungarian Band was specially engaged. The death took place of Mr R. Swancoat, on Monday morning, at his residence, Kenmuir, Hough Green, Chester. Deceased was apparently in good health on Sunday evening, and death was due to heart failure. Deceased for many years had travelled for the firm of Messrs Lowe, Donald and Co., tweed manufacturers, Peebles, and he was ex- ceedingly well known, being a prominent member of the Chester and North Wales Commercial Travellers' Association.

Bangor A Company's Affairs, At the Bangor County Court on Monday, before Sir Horatio Lloyd, Mr Ellis J. Griffith, M.P., appeared in support of an application for the compulsory winding up of the firm of Messrs De Winton and Co, Union Iron- works, Carnarvon.—Mr Griffith said that he repre- sented a creditor for 4-152 17s 2d, and eleven others whose claims collectively amounted to _t-603 13s 4d. The Company was formed in 1898, with a normal capital of £ 12,000. Five hundred and eleven out of the 535 shares stood in the name of Alexandra R. Stenning. Seven shareholders lived at the same address, and of the seven four were named Stenning, the address being 121, Cannon-street, London, E.C. On December 30, 1898, there was an advance to the Company by way of debentures of £ 800. The vendor of the Company was Mr Stenning himself, and in March, 1899, he made an advance of £ 5,000 to the Company, this being secured by a second debenture. In 1901 there was a circular letter sent around by the Company stating that Mr Cookson had been appointed receiver on behalf of the first debenture-holders. The creditors whom he represented were unable to obtain payment, and in consequence a petition was filed. Prior to coming to court he was supplied with a statement enclosing resolutions passed at an extraordinary meeting of the Company held on June 14. One resolution was to the effect that as the meeting was satisfied that the Company, by reason of its liabilitities, could not be continued, it should be wound up voluntarily. Mr Briscoe, Liverpool, on behalf of the debenture-holders, said that no suggestion had been made that there was anything wrong in the working of the Com- pany.—Mr Rodway, Bangor, for the second debenture-holders, pointed out that Mr Stenning was the main creditor. He thought that the only chance the creditors would have of obtaining any money from the concern was by voluntary winding up.—Mr Bryn Roberts, M.P., representing the liquidator of the Company, said that Mr Stenning was the man who had lost most, he and his family having spent a considerable amount in making the works more valuable. He favoured a voluntary winding up as being the cheapest and most expe- ditious method possible. A compulsory winding up would mean a breaking-up" price. His Honour said that there was no suggestion of any- thing improper having been done. One thing was quite clear, that there was not sufficient money to pay the debenture-holders. Under the circum- stances it would be hopeless to have a compulsory winding up. The petition would be dismissed, and the costs of the first debenture-holder allowed. The others would have to pay their own costs.

Moss, iron- monger, Colwyn, and are on view in his window. A Good Suggestion.—At a meeting of the Coro- nation Festivities Committee held on Tuesday night, it was suggested by Mr R. J. Lewis, draper, to ask the secretary to write to the owners of Cefn estate to allow the road to be continued through Penybryn on to the Llanelian-road, and a bridge over the Dingle to be called Coronation Bridge, and also walks through the Dingle. The suggestion was unanimously carried.—As this road has been talked of about eight years it is to be hoped that the Colwyn residents will not rest until it is completed. Coronation Festivities —The programme for the Old Colwyn Coronation festivities has been drawn up, and the committee is to be congratulated upon the arrangements made. On Thursday morning special services will be held at all the places of worship. A grand procession will start from the Marine Hotel at I o'clock. It will consist of mounted Foresters, Colwyn Bay Silver Prize Band, the Foresters Friendly Society, Good Templars, children, cycle parade, tradesmen, &c. At three o'clock a free tea will be given to children under 13 and old people over 60. At four o'clock there will be sports, followed by a display of fireworks. Wedding.—On Wednesday the marriage took place of Mr Thomas IBarden, 5, Marine-terrace, Old Colwyn, and Miss M. A. Barker, Ilford, Llysfaen-road, Old Colwyn. The ceremony was performed by the vicar, the Rev J. Griffiths, and took place at the Parish Church in the presence of a large number of relations and friends. The 'bride was given away by her father. Mr G. Taylor, of Whitchurch, officiated as best man, whilst Miss E. Barker acted as bridesmaid. The bride wore a pretty dress of ;blue poplin, trimmed with white satin and cream lacè, and a white hat. The honeymoon is being spent at Whitchurch.

The sad event took place at Basingstoke on Wednesday evening. The New Pierrots.—Up-to-date songs and clever patter characterize the company of entertainers who perform daily opposite the Imperial Hotel. In Pierrette Williams they have an artiste of great ability, and the other members of the troupe can give an excellent account of themselves. A Valuable Gift.—The director of the African Institute received the following letter on Thursday: Dear Sir,—I enclose cheque for £ 50, as a thank- offering for cessation of war in South Africa. You ■will oblige me by not inserting my full name or address in vout published list, only the initials, viz., M. J. T.—Yours faithfuJJy-" Underwood's Band.—This capital band continues to entertain the residents and visitors with charm- ing selections of music from the works of the best and most popular composers Their perfori-natices,, daily on the band-stand on the Promenade are ex- cellent, and the humorous songs which Mr Clifford renders are always most deservedly applauded. Reynolds' Minstrels,—Colwyn Bay is very lucky in its minstrels this season. A more diverting and laughable entertainment than that provided on the Promenade by Mr Reynolds' clever company could hardly be imagined. Each member of the troupe is a star in his own particular line, and the solos and choruses are extremely well rendered. A humorous sketch, which is given at the close of each night's entertainment, always creates roars of laughter. Local Competitors at New Brighton.—At the Coronation Eisteddfod held at New Brighton on Saturday, in the Welsh recitation, Carlo," 19 competitors, the first prize, ^1 is. and silver medal, was gained by Mr E. Kingston Jones, Colwyn Bay. In the English recitation, with musical accompani- ment, The Bells" (Poe), 12 competitors, the first prize, Ci is. and silver medal, was also awarded Mr E. Kingston Jones. The Novelty Bohemians.—A number of splendid new items has been added to an already large and varied programme of the above popular company. Mr Atherton's rendering of popular songs places him in one of the front ranks of bass vocalists; and the company are to be congratulated upon having amongst their number an artiste of such ability. Several new choruses by the whole company are exceedingly well sung. Special Police Court.—On Friday, at a special police court, before Mr W. D. Houghton, William Payne (62), a travelling tub-maker, was charged with sleeping in the Bryn Euryn buildings.—P.C. Owen said he found the accused lying on a quantity of straw, and there were matches in his pocket.— Sergeant Tippet remarked that this was prisoner's third appearance for the same offence. — Prisoner was committed for 14 days with hard labour. The School Board Election.—In the ordinary course, the triennial School Board election of this district is to be held early next month, but at the last meeting of the Board, when almost all the members were present, a very strong desire was expressed that as the Board was now in the midst of the work of completing the new Higher Grade School the present members be left undisturbed for the present and so avoid an election. To this reason why an election should be avoided at present might be added the inevitable change which would undoubtedly be effected in the con- stitution of School Boards by the bill now before Parliament. Notwithstanding the considerable additions made to the schools within the last three years the rate is said not to be any higher but actually less than it was then. It is also stated that the attendance in the Coiwyn Bay schools is 12 per cent. higher than tit has probably ever been. Under the circumstances, the Board's wish will, it is hoped, be gratified. Supper to Workmen.— On Thursday evening all the workmen who have been engaged in the re- building of the new Congregational Chapel, siit down in the Lecture-hall to a most sumptuous supper, provided by the ladies of the congregation. The Pastor, the Rev Thomas Lloyd, and Mrs Lloyd, supported by the leading deacons and their wives, acted as hosts and hostesses, whilst the waiting was admirably carried out by a bevy of young lady members of the church. After supper, a small programme con- sisting mainly of speeches and songs, was gone through, Mr Lloyd occupying the chair. The Pastor, Messrs Newell, John Jones, Greenfield, Taylor (treasurer of the building fund), R. R. Phillips, and Scott delivered short and highly interesting addresses. The speakers referred to the happy fact that, though the work was of such great difficulty, not the slightest accident had occurred to any of the workmen employed. Men- tion was also made of the splendid work done by the contractors, Messrs Roberts Bros., Colwyn Bay. Mr Roberts (of the firm of Messrs Roberts Bros.) alluded to the good spirit which had existed during the fourteen months' work between the contractors and the committees. He congratulated them upon the successful completion of the building. A vote of thanks to the ladies, which was responded to by Mrs Lloyd, and the singing of the Welsh hymn, Crugybar," brought a most pleasantly- spent evening to a conclusion. About 70 guests partook of the supper.

Welcome to a New Minister.—The Rev Peter Jones, the new minister of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, has been welcomed to Colwyn Bay in a characteristically warm Welsh manner. Special services and meetings were held on Saturday even- ing, and on Sunday and Monday. The Rev Evan T.

The speakers, most of whom had known Mr Jones many years, spoke in the very highest terms of his character and ability and in responding, the new pastor expressed his heartfelt thanks for the warm reception accorded him, and remarked he intended to justify to the fullest extent in Colwyn Bay their kind opinions of him.
