SPEECH DAY AT RYDAL MOUNT. CONFERENCE PRESIDENT'S TRIBUTE TO LATE PRINCIPAL. CORDIAL WELCOME TO NEW. HEADMASTER. The ver.iierous applause of the students and ihe no less oordiaa spftaebea of Wesley an. leaders on Friday tÏIIIÕ e.ry happy rela- tions existing ti>-i<Rydal Mouat, the wefl- Connexion-al school at Coiwyn Bay, and ite now principal (Mr George i". A. O.iborn, -M.A.). Tins was the first occasion for Mr (bborn to meet pupils, parents, friends and governors in public since ho suecwedied his lamented father ad headmaster of the sutiool, and -as it was "prize day" tnere was a mintervus and in.tlueiuia.i- assembly. The proceedings were mtiierto held in the assembly hall wn-cre -the organ recently completed by way of a mem- onaii to too fcute Mr Ltevu.e,—the veteran Assist- -ant master who, about throe years ago, {raised -away after an association with thd late Principal -of about 25 years,—•attracted muoh attention. Mr Barker, vioe-ebairiMan of the governors, presided, and he was accompanied on either &Mie. by tiie Provident of the VVesieyan Conienetnioe J. llorniabrook) and the PrinoipaJ, a. num- bor of prominent members of the Connexion be- ing also on the piatform. The Chairman expamed that tho Preside of the Couieremce (Mr Horna>brook) waa ajso the chairman of tho eohooi governors, but as jbe was tnero to speak in his capacity as P rest- e£I of the Conference it had faJUcn to his (the -Speaker's) lot to preside. When it was realised ■tdiat Mr ilomabrook bad preached between 80 rud 90 sermons since the beginning of Septem- ber, they would appreciate bis aatkm in coming 4i0 speak to them that afternoon (hear, hear). He was very glad to see- such a good ga.thering, and he couid not but hope they would permit memories of the past iafluenoo them for the time being. When they saw they no longer had Mr Osborn, the old headmaster, with them, they couid not but feed sa.d. It was not'for Aim to speak good words for Mr Osborn; his ■eulogies had been uttered by people able to spoa-k in hMing terms of him. Mr Cteboxn » memory was borne with deep respect all over Engiand, the Colonies and America (cheers). Now they oould not but rejoioa in the fact that •one of Mr Osborn's children was now the Jiea.dima.ster—(loud applause),—and it was to bo hoped the son would receive every encourage- ment for tho future. Mr George Osborn was with his father on the school staff for many -years, and no doubt had received from him many invaluable hints which would bear good fruit in the management of the school. They must give the new headmaster time; he had ,st.epp.eel into the shoes of a great headmaster (hear, hear). But the governors were very hope- ful for tho future of the school under Mr Os- born, and they were all glad to have him thorn that day (applause). PRINCIPAL'S REPORT. Mr Osoom, wlio tiien rose to present the an- imal report, was given a splendid reoepiiion, -and general cheering prevailing for a. long time. W nen at neiigth he was aiiowed to pro- ceed he sajrU that beiore he de-art wito what was -s&raetiy witmn nas province mat a-lternoon, ie -dC6.lfeÙ to expend a very beauty welcome to too presiaent, tlie members of tiio governing body, ana tlloe WHO had come to snow by their pre- sence ami sympatliy their interest tne work done in the scnooi. tie regarded tiio gathering as a, good omen of success perhaps for the future (near, liear). He Old not tJlmK he should dweil upon the event of the past year; tirat l1a-d been s-umoiently rei erred to already by the .chairman, but he might be ai owe a to tender Ins. sincere tnanlis for the very kindly terms in which Mr Barker had reierred to ins own quali- ties (hear, hear). PTOoooding, tiie mncipm said they lia-d experienced a year of very good hearth in tiie school—(hear, heoar)-apart from. ..mysterH/Us visitation which the doctors had Jbeou quite unaule to give a name to, butt which be nnnsoif described as a periodic disease —(laugiiier)—they were Saturday morniing vic- tims wno guttered no great pains (laughter). They had had notrung to tronbe tliem tHrougn- Dut the wheie tune (liear, hear). Equ^ufiy satis- factory, ho was tnankfui to report, inau been tiie disc i pi me and ,ton;) of the school (hear, hear). He spoke of that wish more confidence because it was not suripjy his own view,for only Jiat morn- ing an "old ooy' who had btxsn on a visit to -the school last week wrote, and two sentences trOlll .hl.5 letter were as touowts; "i was surucii .by tiie spirit of keenness there seemed to be. Trie selioou rrad a. very vigorous appearance, and I was deligiited to notice it" (appna^e). Dur- ing tne year they had formally opened the or- gan, whic-ii was to memorialise the nineteen years ainxxst of 'unexampled labour which the iate Mr Oeviwe had spent amontg theiii (cheerN). h nngiit DO judged the jjistrument was a va-iu- lihle aumnon, and since it was opened tihey had been able to conduct a ahont service dajiy in IDe halJ, which he thought would prove bene- ficial (hear, hear). It.olQrri:ng to tbe bono:.tr.5- list Mr Osborn cailed attention to a. number of noteworthy aelwevenients. Speaking of E. J. Bel by's success at Downing (Jeliega, he said the college tutor wrote expressing a desire tv have there Rydal Mount boys at that imtrtution, so gratified was he with Selby's work (hear, liear). D. Witty, who had won the higher certificate -of the Oxford and Cambridge Joint Board, was -one of the three in the country who had gaumed diiiUiuotiun in geotiogy, (lappra-uae). A. W. Bourne had net only won his- M.K.C.S. and Xi-R.C.P. certificates, but was weil on tiie road ioi- the fellowship of his ooilege (cheers), -t'inaily in the person of G. A. France, they had "old boy" representing- the school in the House of Commons as member for Morley—- (hear, hear)—it was many years since an. old Hydatiian was in the House previously. In oonciusion Mr Osborn said he must express his very great indebtedness to 'his colleagues and staff for their whole-hearted co-operahion and jtympathy with hrm (hear, hear). They had be- gun the term under somewhat peculiarly trying :sircumstanoes, and he was gl-ad to bear testi- mony to their devotion throughoiut. lie doc- sired specially to mention the fact that Dr. JRogers, their music master, had had 25 connection with the schood (applaiwe). He had "lever asked yet what Dr. Rojjcrs thought of 'ahe fact thait his old pupil should be now his headmaster (laughter and applause). A NOBLE IDEAL. Before distributing t.!w prizes the Conference President delivered an inspiriting address to the fooya on the cultivation of character, dilating WJdh eloquent force upon the qualities of ooJf- xeiianoe, self-insastery, and seli-rewpeet. Strik- ing a personal note he referred to tho late Mr Osborn as one of the greatest headmasters of modern times (loud applause). He reminded the boys that they were associated with a famous oohool-and hQ used thQ word" [.¡¡,mous" advisedly, for in his travels all over the oountrjr he had had expediences of old Rydabanri which justified the description—(hear, hear)—for "od boyts" were filling a worthy place in the life of -the Church and the SiUite (applause). He had -beem intimately acquainted, with the late Mr Osborn for many years, having known him long ^before he carne to Rydal Mount, and to him ■(the speaker) Rydal Mount had always sugges- ted a type of edueation which aimed at a. very lofty ideal (liear, hear). No man had sounder views upon education than their late distin- guished headmaster—(applause)—no man more strenuously strove to bo true to his high voca- tion. They sadly mkaed him there thuit day; they would always cherish his memory. He urged the boys to be true and faithful to the jgreat traditions of that school, and to set before themselves as examples of a noble character in. iife their late headmaster—(loud applause)— xthey could have no finer ideal. Let them act us 1J-¡ey believed Mr Osborn would have acted, and they would never go wrong floud clieers). MUSIC, At intervale a musical programme, arranged $>y Dr. Roland Rogers, the distmgarnished muisic -master, wa$(sustained with complete succvvis. Tiro items included Wintliokl'a anthem, "I will lift up mine eyes," the rendering of the duct by two of the younger bo.ys—one of whom iiad an un/usircuily tine alto voioe—created great impression, "The Fighting Temer- and "The AroLhuja" were in unisson, AIld the choir aiso rendered three part songs, "Soot6 wha (Sootch), "The Minstrel Boy" (Lrish), and "from tiie Vii'ia.ge JSt-»#ple" (VTesiii), in excellent spirit.

AFTER CAREER OF DULL SCHOOLBOYS. HOPE FOR THE DUNCE. ABERGELE LADY'S INTERESTING ADDRESS. (From OUT Reporter}. On Friday evening, Mrs Stytfoe-Willians B.A., presided at the esoand mcttxing of tLo Abergele Literary and Moieacai Society, when Miss Ada B. Gittems, L.L.A., headinittress of the Giarls' School, read an table paper on Af'tfta'-oareer of some dull Schoolboys." A student oi the biographies of who kave made themselves famous, MLss Gittms said, must bo struck with tine largo number who ware considered dunecs wJicoa young, and also how many of tlnem were not difit-inguished in any way until well -advanced in yea/s? Thus, &oinvveli was 43, (and had not the slightest knowkdg3 of soldiening, a.nd hud not shown any sign of genius v/hcai ha be^an- his oaraor as lead«r of the Parliamentary Army ,ag>ains't C5iarles I. He, until 43, practically unknown, became in a short time the superior of warrior and states- man the whioia W'Oirid, by shic,ar righteous- tvessi a.nd force of linteilect hoiduig a jarring state together. His memory and doings were persistently besmirched .and viiiihed by his- torians until at length juisitioo was done him by the researches of C'a.rlyle, and now there are few intelligent peoplfe who do not regard him as England's greal-cst rnleir since Alfred the Great. Cltive, who was the means of laying tiie foundations of our Indian Empire, was ia notoriously idle and had boy. When he had not completed his seventh year 110 w.as men- tioned Íin a letter as "out of ail measure ;(1. dicted to fighting." lie was sent from school to school, but would not study. 11-0 became leader of the English forces in India, and it was his 'in that capacity which gave to England her prestage in the East. WELLINGTON A DUNCE. Wellington as a boy was KStnarkable for Irs unsociable and combative disposition. lie had no fondness for school, and was eonsidpir- oed a dunce. His mother, a. clever but hard woman, was so annoyed with his seeming want of success that she same to tho conclusion that her ugly, awkward Arthur was only t for food. for powder. It is not improbable that a competitive examination would have excluded liim from the Army. He, however, upheld the valour of our arms in India, in Spain, and" in France, and finally crushed Napoleon's power at the Battle of Waterloo, in 1815. Among writers who have added to the glories of English literature is GoldsmiLh, whose works will be read as long as the Eng- lish language lasts. He was taUght the al- phabet by ia Mrs DaLap, who declared he was the "most unpenetoably stupid lad at his lessons she had ever known." At the several grammar schools to which he went he was the butt of boys a.nd masters, and pointed at as a. fright in the playground, and flogged as a dunce in the schooliroorn. He afterwards went as a singer 't-o a college at Dublin, where neglected his studies, but obtained his bachelor's degree eventually, and left. Tie tried hve or mx professions without success; applied for ordination but was speedily turned out of the Epi&oopai Palace. He roamed ovor Europe, and in 1756 landed back at Dover, without a shilling, without a friend, and with- out a calling. He drifted into writing, came into contact with Johnson, and this brougat him into the best intellecbua.1 fjociety of that time. Here is an instance of a. man whom neither schools, universities, ox even hitter ex- perience could tcaclj., yicit he wroto with such skill that his works will be immortal. BOG. well, another friend and protege of Johnson, is instance of a man who was all his life considered as a very senseless and ridiculous individual, conceittcd and shallow. Ho be- came aocpiainted with Johnston in 1762, that, great man heilng then in the height of his tame. It was Boswell who wrote the "Lifo of Johnson," and ttlie work has presetrved his name atnd mado it universally known. This 'is one of the most valuable and iGntertaining books in literature. He had not enough sense to make a selection, giving us, fortunately, all he knew. Bosweil as an instance of a duii boy, who remained dull all his life. James 1., who was called "the wisest fool in creation," was a dull ischoolboy, who beeame a king. His dubiess was so great that he failed to see and appreciate the ispirit of the age in which lie lived, and this wise fool's teachings were the indirect means of causing .untold misery and suffering to his country. CHALMERS AND COOK INCORRIGIBLE. Hr. Chalmers and Hr. Cook were hoj's to- gether at the parish school of St. Andrew's, and were found so stupid and anischievous that the mai^ter, .irritated beyond measure, dismissed thorn as incorrigibLe dunces; yet, the former became a missionary, and the lat- ter professor of moral [philosophy a-t St. An- drew's. Scott, the famous "Wizard of the North," was tho son of a Writer to the Signet, who was disgusted with what, he considered his soin's idleness, and his master at school said, "Never was so dull a boy." At I Odin- burgh College, he was called the "Greek blockhead." There, also, Professor DaJzell said of liim, "Dunce he was and dunce he would remain." Scott was in his 4-ord year before he became an author. Unlike Gold- smith, whose life was a striking example 01 want of method and purpose, Soott believed it was good for a man to spend some fair por- tion of every day in any matter-of-fact occu- pation. "I deternrkned," he said, "that liter- ature should bo my istaff, not my crutch, and that the profits of my literary J.abour, how- evrer convenient otherwise, should !not, if I could help it, become n-eoessary to my oidi- no.ry expenses." Scott was a hue, noble char- acter, and few men of letters are so worthy of reverence and admiration. Reynolds, the great artist paiinter of masterpieces, as a boy lorgot his Lessons, and only (took pleasure in drawing, which caused his father a great deal of anxiety and (annoyance. He became the first president of the Royal Academy. Ho- garth, who also became a famous artist, was a dull boy at his lessons, and took pleasure in making drawings of the .letters of the al- phabet. His schood exercises were more re- markable for the ornaments with, which, he embellished them than for the exercises them- selves. In the ordinary exercises he was beaten by all the blockheads in the school, but in thie adornments he was above. Dr. Adam Clarke, regarded as one of the brightest ornaments of the Wesley an community, was a notorious dunee When a ooy, but noted for being able to roll large (stones about. He bag-an to learn lilio trade of linen manufacturer, a.nd while doing so the study of literature, beeorri:.iig later famous as a preacher and Oriental scholar. Samuel Drew was anbther notorious dunce, tremendously given to mischief and play- ing truant. In robbing orchards he was usually a. leader, a.nd as he grew older lie delighted ia taking part in any poaching or smuggling- adven- ture. fie was at last attracted by t'ha preadhitijg of Dr. Adam Clarke, and finally became dis- tinguished as a minister of gospel and writer of good books. Aigain, Sir Isaao Newton stood at the bottom of his class in the lowest form but orra of the sohooi. However, in time, he became a famous mathematician and discoverer of the law of g'ravitation. James Watt, noted as an inventor and perfeo- fcor of the steam engine, was constantly jeered at by his sohooi fellows as being dull and spirit- less. When over seventy he imagined his in- tellectual powers were on the dealrnc, and to test them he determined upon a new study. He selected Anglo-Saxon, and mastered it with suah speed that there was little ground for his fears. Many others could be. rroticed, Miss Gittins said in conclusion, Who were late learners and students. Sir Henry Spelma-n did not bagin. the study of stcicniv? till between fifty and sixty, and tranklin was fifty when he began the study of natural history. Further examples might ba given which would illustrate tiie la-ot it is not only tiie men of brilliant genius who move tho world; rather it seems to be the men of stead- fastness, purpose, and industry. Early clever- ness gives no sure sign of tihe height to which the man will reach. Neither need anyone dies- pair on account of having let school days g10 by without any seeming great advantage. It is never too latc- to learn; it is never too late to achieve. She would say to all: "Aim hi»"h "Hitch your waggon to a star" (applause)" AN INTERESTING DISCUSSION.' Several members took part in an interesting discuss Kin which followed. 1:7 Mr J. R. Ellis mentioned" Dio Aberdaron" as another dull boy w11>O afterwards beou^ne famous a. a. linguist, mastering fourteen or fifteen tongues, of whioh he could make fluent use of five or six. It all proved, Mr Ellis remarkeJ, haw great was the raspcaisibilifcy of taachers in the teatmont of the dulisrd1. Mr W. J. Evans he had so great a belief in humanity as to believe IlO man to be alto- gether dull, enid that there was some semblance «f good in every man. They had heard enough from tlic illustrations citcd by Miss Gittins to see tliat a man might be dull in one direction, and very clever iLl another. As to the point raised with reference to dull pupils, he believed I thy as teachers were fully alivo to their res- ¡ ponsibilities of giving adequate treatment to the I dullard. One of the greatest compensations of a teacher's lü was the tnowlcd-ge of tiie very great possibilities in ercai the dullest of boys (hear, hear). Education oould not create brains, but it could dere'ep the mind along t'be lines of its particular aptitude and ability (Tiear, hear). Tho ROT. J. Ileciry Darics aai-I tho lab» Richard Owen, tiio farrious WeLih Methodist reriTafist, was the biggest dumee at, Bala Col-, leje, and it was bo that ooaasioned bhe remark of the.Principal—"We can't, send out preadhors if you dorrt-*<«:d u# brains." >Yet, in later years, Ilia ..latent talent for preaching be*aa,aio apparwit to » oemarkabie dagreo. It \1JAa 111&11 time, de. \1 I jr ,6- clarod the rev. gentleman, that we devoted more of our time to elementary education, to bring it more into level with our splendid secondary and university system; and by the way, he felt glad to think that their own secondary school was likely to remain, th-û County Uoruncilllaving that day passed auah a reoommendaion by am overwhelming majority (hear, hear). On the motion of M.r W. Pierce Morris, secon- by Mr G. T. Evans, Miss Gittins was accor- ded hearty thanks for her admirable paper. In thanking- them, Miss Gittins said,, referring to the system oj elementary education now in vogue, that she would like to see education (coked upon as an art as well as a science. She would also like to see it freer; they were now too rigidly bound, and generally speaking they had leas expert training and exper-enced teach- ing than was tho case 11} tüe secondary schools. In ♦spite of their inadequate resouroas in appara- t'llli and staff, \et their elementary system was by general consent tire best, lin the world, a.nd in their childrcai they lelt they had splendid rrus-terial (hoar, hear). She hoped that tire schools of tihe land would become more and more like their homes and their old-fashioned' workshops, where 1,1:10 hand was developed to take up that which the brain conceived (ap" plause). Tho moeting terminated with a vote of thanks to Mrs Sty tho-Williams.

WATivR SU PPL If IN CASE OF FIRE. Mr Liew. B. Evans drow attention to the provkiions in ,th,e workhouse for coping with outbreaks of tire, and said that he had that day tested the mains, and found an adequate supply. A dtroam of water was easily sent over the roof of tho budding from the standpiire. The real facts of tho case were that tho Board was under an agreement with the Rhyl Council to take water by meter, and tlrac was supplied through an inch pipe. But at tho entrance to the workhouse premises iihere was a four-inch, mAin, whioh waj seared. Iin case of fire the ofhoNdR at the workhouse had the right to break that sea- whioh allow the waiter to pass with- out going through tiie meter. He had that day broken the seal doing so on tho authority of the Rhyl Water Committee. The result was that plenty of water wa> obtainable. Mr J. Roberts Jones confirmed this statement. The Chairman said he oould aiso support. what Ml Evam had said. He also wished to say on behalf of the IJhyl water engineer that there was no valve in St. Asaph which regit- Jated the supply to tho workhouse, and which mig'ht be turned whenever there was a practice. The supply was -adequate for all purpo e whon the woall was broken. He wished it to be un- derstood that there was not cause for alarm as to tho water pressure, at toe work- house.

A DANGEROUS POND AT BETTWS. At a previous meeting referenee was made to the dangerous condition of a pond at Bettws, awl the Surveyor now (stated that it required cleaning out. Mr Da.vies considered that it would bo almost impossible to clean out the pond now, as there wa3 far too much water in it. They would have to leave the matter over untd after tho whiter. Tine matter was then deferred. SANITATION AT CLIP TERFYN, LLAN- DDULAS. The Surveyor reported that he had served notices on the occupiers of cottages at Clip Ter- fyn to provide sanitary conveniences. At the fiiOscnt time complaint was made that refuse was dei>osited m the adjacent quarries, and this was strongly objected to. The action of the Surveyor was confirmed. j UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF NORTH- WALES. Tho Council unanimously n poo in ted the Rev. Canon C. F.

It was reported that correspondence had passed between the Council and Mr R. W. Wynne with reference to the pro-posed drainage seheme of Tai Dulas, Ponnington-tcrrace, and other parts of Llanddulas. The Clerk had asked Mr Wynne if -he would oontribuie to the cost of the outfall, but that gentleman replied tihat ho had ob- jection to the proposed site oi the outfall, aa he considered :it would interfere considerably with the bathing, and ho suggested that he should be informed of the cost of an outfall more to the east of that proposed. The Parish Council had also suggested that _Mr Wynne should be asked to contribute to the cost, and to bring into tho market land for buildm.g sites. In reply to that letter, Mr Wynne had said he would consider tihe matter when ho had definite figures before him, aind added that he had on one oooa- sion held an auction, but people- objected to buy land a.t that timo as at was said there was no drainage, lie wOlhdalsoo consider that matter later The Clerk explained that the Surveyor had prepared an estimate of the cost of an outfall a,t the sito suggested by Mr Wynne, and the total was £395. He had conveyed that estimate to Mr Wynne, but had heard nothing1 further of the matter. The Chairman explained that the Parish Coun- cil was awaiting Mr Wynne's reply, so that tihe subject had better be deferred. He believec4 that the only auction of building sites held by Mr Wynne at Liandduias was some 10 years ago. The matter was then deferred. WATER ON THE ABERGELE MARSH.

Twigge Ellis, the permanent transfer of the licence of the Black Horse Inn was granted to Mr Thomas Price Roberts, Ileathfieid, Penrhynsicle, lJlandudno. AFTER TWELVE MONTHS. John Jones, Tyddyn Liu, who failed to make an appearance, was summoned for being drunk and disorderly on November 2nd, 1909. P.O. J. Jones deposed that about 9 p.m. on the date referred to he saw the defendant in Ancas- tor Square, drunk and creating a disturbifnee- At first he refused to go home, but when wit- ncss threatened to take him in charge he re- turned to his house. Since then, however, he had disappeared and did not return to town un- til last week. A fine of 5s and costs (los 6d) was imposed. Griffith Roberts, Chapel-street, was summoned for being drunk and disorderly on November 5th. P.C. Owen said he saw the defendant in Den- bigh street drunk and using bad language, and challenging people to fight. A fine of 2s 6d and costs (10s) was imposed. FINED FOR THEFT. Robert Lloyd Hughes, Scotland-street, was summoned by Percy Jones, London House, for the larceny of a ferret. The defendant pleaded guilty to the charge. Percy Jones, a draper's assistant, employed at London House, said he was the owner of a fer- ret, which he kept down the entry at the back of London House. He did not reside on the premises. He (last saw the animal before he went on his holidays in October, and left it in charge of a friend. When he returned lie was informed that the animal had been stolen. He valued it at 5s. P.C. J. Jones stated that on Saturday, October 22nd ho went to the defendant's house, accom- panied by P.C. Owen, and found him in bed. He notwed two ferret boxes in the kitchen, awl on making further investigations found the ferret in a tin box in the front of the house with a weight on the lid to keep it down. Witness then proceeded upstairs into the defendant's bedroom and prevailed upon him to get up. Witness asked him to explain the presence of the ferret en the premises, and he replied, "I found it in Ancaster Square, and I have witnesses to prove it." Witness then invited the defendant to ac- company him to the police station to see Inspector Wyse. By this time a crowd of his friends had collected bY" the house, and the candle in the room was suddenly extinguished. A "bustle" ensued, at the end of which witness found him- self outside between or five women, but P.C. Owen had hold of the defendant, who pro- mised to go to the police station quietly. Wit- ness took charge of the ferret. Witness re itera- ted his statement at the police station. The fer- ret had been identified by both Mr Price Jones and Mr Ellis Owe-n. A fine of 10s and costs (18s 6d) was imposed. "VERY NICE IAWN." William Hughes, Groesffordd, Llanddoget, summoned Thomas Williams, junr., Penbryn- ddoget, Llanddoget, for trespassing in search of conies on October 25th. Mr Twigge Ellis prosecuted, and Mr J. D. Jones appeared for the defendant. \V. Hughes said he was a gamekeeper in the employ 01 Mr Norton, who held the shooting rights over Nantyglyn Isa, Llanddoget. On October 24th he noticed some snares set on a hedge on the property, so he visited the spot early on the following day when he saw the de- fendant bending down near the hedge and set- ting a snare. Witness went up to him, and in- quired what he was doing. lie replied "I am setting snares," and added that he would not have done it had he known Mr Norton had the shooting rights over the land. The defendant then accompanied witness until the other snares, numbering 19 altogether, were removed. On a subsequent day witness found four more. Wit- ness admitted that the snares belonged to him, and witness produced the snares. The Chairman: Were all these snares set in one tie id? Witness: Yes, sir. Continuing, Witness said the hedge was within 400 yards of defendant's home, and his father's land led up to the hedge on the other side, but he had no right to snare rabbits on the Nanty- glyn side. Witness went to the tenant of Nanty- giyn, and satisfied himself that defendant had received no permission to snare rabbits on the farm. Witness saw the defendant last Friday, and he said to him (witness) "You aro a crank to summon me. You should have forgiven rne the first time." Cross-examined by Mr J. D. Jones As far as lie knew tho defendant was a respectable man, but he had been setting snares before, although he had not been caught. Witness had been in the employ of Mr Norton for three years. He had held the shooting rights over Nantyglyn for twelve months. He had not heard that the de- fendant had been granted permission to ferret the land during tho previous year by the tenant of t,J; farm. Nor had he hoard that the defen- dant had been requested by several farmers, in- cfuding Mr J. Williams, Nantyglyn, to catch their rabbits. Lynch Jones, however, had the right to catch rabbits there this year. Defendant appeared on the scene about 7.35 on Tuesday morning, and witness spoke to him almost im- mediately he arrived. Witness said to him, "Very nice iawn" (laughter). Mr Jones explained that this was a local phrase. Witness, continuing, said thore was nothing in any of the snares. The Chairman: Were all the snares set on one fence? Witness: Yes, sir. Mr J. D. Jones: Was tho defendant's presence in the field consistent with his intention of re- moving the snares? Witness: No, he was setting them. Mr Jones submitted that there was no case to answer for. His client was charged with tres- passing on the land in pursuit of conies. It had been decided that the offender must bo in pur- suit of live game or else the charge fell through. Complainant did not suggest that the defendant was in search of conies, and there was no evidence upon which the court could convict the defendant. The Chairman: \V 0 decide that there is a case for you to answer. The defendant said he was 23 years of age. He had for some years boon requested by the fanners in tho neighbourhood to catch thoir rabbits. The tenant of Nantyglyn last year made him such a request and on the day before (October 24th) Thomas Williams, another farmer, had asked him to snare the rabbits on his land. Witness did not know that Mr Norton had acquired the shoot- ing rights ovor Nantyglyn until October 24th. In consequence of that fact he went on October 25th to take up the snares lie had set on tho hedge. The keeper came up to him and said "Very nice iawn" (laughter). Wtncss was then taking up the snare and not setting it. Cross-examined by Mr Ellis: When the keeper asked him what ho was doing he replied, "I a.m taking up tho snares." The defendant was fined 5s and costs (14s 6d).

jiEWA-KE OF COLD IN A CUT. Zam-Buk Heals Chapped Hands and Prevents Blood-poison. At this time of the year there is no more com room cause of blood-po-saning among house- wives and oiJher workers than "oharis." It is the oas-est lining in tne world for disease gerrna asnd poisonous grit to enter the blood through a fissure of the skin, caused by the roughrt&ss, raw- iscea, and cracks brought on by tne cold and lerclement weather. Chapped hands, sore lips, tunfd cold-sores geirrerally, am not only dangerous but annoying, and. girls with tender skins often suffer untold misery, especially alter a busy day at the wash'.ir-g-tub or general clea-n..ng down. Perhaps that rough, u,nr>ica.sant "fool" which indicates the approach of tibs tdreaO-ed chapped condition is already notxeabio. The skin shows a tendency to roughness, and is sensitive to the slightest touch. In most cases of chapped hands tihere is a good deal of smarting when pluirg>_<ng into hot. water, while rn t.iie worst oases the skin burns -and smarts so fiercely that every rnovo- nJl31i,t causes pain; and washing, working, or oven wr-ting becomes positive torture. The skin cracks at the knuckles, bleeding- begins, ami if the wound remains open, cold and dirt get into it and inflammation is set up. Because this as a common daily experience at this tirn-3 of the year, that is all the more reason why it dkoud not be lightly regarded.

On the application of Mr W. Twigge Hills the transfer of the grocers' licence for Llys Garadoc was granted to Mrs Dinah Rawiiri- son, the widow of the late Mr Rawiinson. A POSTMAN S EXPENSIVE RAILWAY JOURNEY. Ernest Daw, a detective in the employ of the London and hi orth-Western Railway Company, summoned David Thomas Pugh, auxiliary postman, Lla-nerch Elsie, Bettwsy- coed, for travelling between LLanrwst and Brf-Uwsyooed on September 10th without a ticket. Mr H. T. Tate, London, prosecuted on be- half of the Railway Company. Walter Hohley, station master in change of B-ettwsyeoed Station, said that on Satur- day, September 10th, he was on duty at the station, when he ascertained that the defendant had booked a single third-class ticket to Llanrwst. In consequence of thh?" fact, and of his suspicions ot the defendant he decided to watch for his return. W itness saw the 8.53 p.m. arrive from the Junction, and noticed the defendant emerge flora one of the carriages, and turn towards the rear of the train, and cross the rails to the opposi t-e platform. Mr Petit; Where were the tickets col- lected? Mr Hohley: At the foot of the bridge. The Chairman And sometimes by the door. Mr Hobley, resuming- his evidence, said the tic-icets that day were collected at the foot of the bridge on the up piatform. The defend- ant, after crossing the rails, stopped near tho bookstall for five minutes, and lh-ln walked out of the premises through the ordinary exit. W itness followed as far as the Uwvd-r Hotel, where he stopped him, end said, "Where is your ticket.- He replied, if What ticketr" VVitne&s said, "You ca-me with the last tra.in." Defendant replied, but I had no time t.o book a ticket at Llanrwst, amd I forgot to pay when I arrived here." De- ie-ndant then put his hand in his pocket, but wit-ues3 informed him that ho could not aocept the fane, and that he would see'him on Monday. Th3 Chairman; How long has he beeai a post-man ? Defendant: Five years, sir. Mr Petat: Do you belong to the district? Defendant: Yes, sir. Dejmty Chief Constable Rc-es: His father lives in a small farm near the village., 'llhero is nothing against the defendant pre- vious to this case. Mr Petit: is ho likely to lose his employ- ment at the Post Office if he as convicted? Mr Tate: 1 do not think 1lr Retit: Do you press for a conviction? iur Tate: It has been going on for some time, and has to be stopped. 1 fed inclined to say that we do press. j It is a serious thing to throw a lad ox this age out of employment. (To defendant) Have you had any warning from the postal authorities that you wili be dis- charged if you are convicted? Delendant: No, sir. The Deputy Chief Constable: If he is bound over he will not lose his place, I know. The Chairman (after consulting with his colleague) Pugh, you have been guilty of a dirty trick. You have lied ali through, and you have lied to me personally. in view of the possibility of your being dis- charged from your situation if convicted, we have decided to bind you over under the First Offenders' Act, and you must pay the costs of the case. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Mr Petit: Wo took his youth into considera- tion, and the probability ox his losing his employment if convicted. Tihe Chairman He is guilty of a very mean action. Mr Tate's application for the witnesses' feea was granted. The defendant's costs amounted to 15s, the ticket from Llanrwst being of the value of four p?nce.

MR WM. JONES, M.P., AT CONWAY. ADDRESS TO YOUNG PEOPLE. JOHN CALVIN PLAYED DALL. At the afternoon meeting in connection with the annual convention of the Vale of Conway Young Oalvmistic Methodists yesterday week Mr William Jones, M.P., was the principal speaker. Speaking in Welsh he said ho had only just j got to know the genesis of that convention to bo an offspring of the revival, when there was a Christian awakening throughout the country. Since the revival it. was thought that sufficient was not being done in the interests of the young people to keep tho good effects of tho revival crystallised. Many of their weaker brethren had fallen after the full force of the revival had been spent. Others, again, had kept the faith strong and resolutely, and so as to perpetuate the good done by the revival young people's oenventions were being held in North and South Wales. He could give instances of many who had kept the faith even amongst prize- fighters and gamblers who had been converted. One man he knew who had been in gaol off and on for eighteen years. The man wa.s brought under tho influence of real religion, and though he oould not at one time read he now was able to read his Bible, and had taught his wife and children to do the same. He prospered in the worldly sense as well and was able to pur- chase horses for his business, and there was al- most a kind of sanctity surrounding the well-cared- for animal he used to drive (laughter). They as Christians must widen the kingdom of Christ. They must go out unt-o the people who were not within the fold. It was not sufficient to say, "The church is hee and her doors are open." They must go and look after the people. The Vale of Conway Young People could do a groat deal, both men and women—one could not do without the other. In his travels in India, Asia, arid other c^ntries he found that Christian women 'felt they must go out to the people. In Delhi, in a mosque, lie did not see a woman in the temple; but he saw 15,000 men standing like an army of soldiers behind each other worship- ping Mahomet. The women were far beliind this scene and could only hear the echoes of that wor- ship. Unlike such a faith as that, the faith of Jesus Christ was for everyone. Every church ought to have a society for the work of the church. The faith of Jesus Christ had been said to be "four square against every wind that blows." The young people of to-day could not live alone on books and on singing praises. They MUST HAVE COMPANIONSHIP. It was at such societies as that which brought young people together that lie had made the best friends he ever had (applause). The speaker dwelt upon the beauties and glories of true friendship, and remarked that unless one friend saw tho ocal. in the other there was no retal friendship. They must, not extract the bad, but tiie good which was in friends. It was the belief of Jesus Christ which had brought people into their proper places and positions. He remem- bered when he was a child in petticoats hi# mother holding him up above the people at a. meeting in Menai Bridge to see the divinely illu- mined face of Henry Recs, and he remembered the impression made upon him when ho attended that divine's funeral. He (the speaker) was never afraid of people and riches; it was the saints in Christ's church who could sec through them. The speaker paid a tribute to an old deacon who Iud "worked on the good he saw in him." and pro- ceeded to say that young people could help their mini¡¡tcrs. and with the passion of young people could illuminate Christ's religion. Let them have such high principles of Christian«tluty that would work: for tho glory oE Chrstianity. The speaker gave excellent advice with regard to looking after their bodies as well as their spiritual welfare. He enjoined young people not t to become cynics. Cynics were, he thought, likened to those volcanic moun. S tains of France which ceased belching forth fire and poured out mud instead. The cvnic was the; HUMAN MUD VOLCANO. They lived in an age of great thought and the days of cheap books, and no cne nowadays "[1/ of much use without ideas. Let the young people not forget to read the old books of Waies of a generation ago; such books as were written by Dr. Lewis Edwards, of Bala, for instance. Dr. Edwards' was the brightest intellect in Wales in tlw last generation. There might haH been mors brilliant writers, but for sanity of thought and genius, and getting at the root of a thing; he (the speaker) knew of no one like him. He therefore strongly recommended the young people of Wales to read Dr. Lewis Edwards' works. Then there wxs Emry* Ap Iwan, who had walked Europe, and was acknowledged in his day to be the best spiritual shepherd of the Vale of Ciwyd. Let the young people read their Welsh books, and whatever they did let them not lose their Welsh language (applause-). Let them not mind the W Chilt accent in their English, and certainly le» them not ashamed of it. Just farcy Sir Walter Scott, Thomas Carlyie, a.nd other famous Scotchmen being ashamed to speak English be- cause of the Scottish accent! Let them spi^ak a., true, maniy men, and noble, womanly women. Germany had organised her national intellect through treating matLf'r3 proprly and sifting I eat, problems. She had thus produced a nation of thinkers. The great danger in Germany was that in its advancement in such matters sha should forget her 'faith. There were noble scho- lars in Wales before tho risc of colleges; and the. letter were the cause of the rising of the W cliJJ.

The Bible was a bigger book in the world to-day than ever it was beiore, and he could prove it. The lay head of the Brah- mins, who was not a lover of missionaries, had the "Ancient and Modern Hymn-book" upon his piano, and the Bible had also its place of honour in his home. Goethe, in the speaker's opinion, was the second great man to Shakespeare, and he had said regarding the Bible, "Of all books this Book, It is the Book that reads u- I is The Bible appealed to the servant girl and the slave and the rich people as well.
