DRUNKEN MAN IN THE PASSAGE
DRUNKEN MAN IN THE PASSAGE CASE AGAINST LLANEUY LICENSEE DISMISSED. At the LlaneUy Police Court on Wed- nesday, Thomas Evans, Farmors' Arms, Tiiom as s t reef., Liaxielly, was charged with permitting drunkenness on April 3rd. Mi. T. R. Ludford appeared for the defence, and pleaded not guilty. P.C. Tom Evans said that at 11 p.m. on April 3rd he saw a man hetplos3lvv drunk in the passage of the Farmers' Arms being assisted by another man, who placed him ouuside the door, which was at once closed from the inside. A moment later the man fell on the pave-. ment. Defendant's wife said: "He was not served here wit!lt a,n.N-thing. He was too drunk." He then saw the man home. Witness had been standing outside the Farmers' Arms for fivo minutes, and during that, time no one entered the house. It would ha.ve been impossible for Jtaikins to enter in the StMuo con- dition as he came out. Mr. Ludford said there was an entrance for any drunken man who de- sired to go into the passage, njid a drunken man could in that way bring any respectable licensee into trouble. Superintendent Jones said they did not suggest that the man was made drunk at that house. Mr. Ludford, proceeding, said the police could not show that the man was supplied with a drop of drink, arid as there was a grgat doubt he asked the bench to give defendant the benefit. Elizabeth Evans, wife of the land- lord, deposed that she had held the license for the past six years, and denied supplying the man with drink. The case was dismissed after further vitneases had been called.

DOOR-TO-DOOR CAMY ASSINC. SOUTH WALES DENTAL SOCIETY'S CONDEMNATION OF THE PRACTICE. At a meetin; the SouLh Wales Branch of the Incorporated Dent-a1.j Society, held at, the Mackwortli Hotel, Swansea, last night, the president (Mr. Davies) deplored the fact that so much door to doov canvassing took place in almost every town and village in South Wales hy certain types of practitioners. He expressed the hope that Parlia- ment would shortly take steps to do awav with this disgraceful method of conducting business. The most interesting item on the clinical side was a demonstration of a new apparatus which is expected to re- volutionise modern dentistry. It will enable the patient to be brought to a stage known as analgeria, in which, although fully conscious, no pain is felt.
A FREE TRADE CHAMPION.I
A FREE TRADE CHAMPION. I PARLIAMENTARY WRITER'S TRIBUTE TO ThE MEMBER FOR SWANSEA. I Dealing with yesterday's proceedings in the House of Commons, Mr. Hany Jones, of the "Chronicle," says: After questions up sprang Sir John Rees to present his Bill "(h:ling with tb reBej of agriculture and other m- dustries ticjii foreign competition." The Bill has no existence in fact. A transient and embarrn-ssed phiantom, it flitted along the sage for a brief moment a iicl td-,eli vanished into oblivion. But the phantom did its work, for the mere apparition meant death for ALr. Hunt's motion. He, poor man, was robbed of the opportunity that luck in the ballot had given htiu, ami the House was deprived of the plea- sure of listening to his grotesque economic views expressed in his quaint and diverting manner. He was not alone in his disappointment, for Free Trade c hampl on-, like Sir Alfred Mond, who had meant to participate in the de- bate, had been eagerly looking forward to the occasion.

Conformably with the. new regulations, which provide that the WorKhouse is now to be t'he "institution," the mas- ter, at the Workhouse Visiting Com- mittee (Mi. Wednesday, Mr. D. Grey pre- siding. was given authority to pur- chase a new rubber stamp. The observation of Mr. George that I he understood it was to be known as Ty Cerrig (Stone House) may prob- ably be regarded. a.6 a harmless plea- snntry. I canel Patients in the Infirmary. The Master reported that a child had been brought in to the hospital suffer- ing from erysipelas, because there was no room for her in the Fever Hospital. Mr. George urged that a return should be prepared of the number of tno<e referred to tuat institution by panel doctors, and that a delegation fchouid wait on the secretary ot the British Medical Association. The Master observed that the father was liable in this case if he had means. it was an exceptional case, which could not be treated in a private house. Mr. Harry Williams said that at one 'I Relief Committee thev had a. ca&e where a doctor referred a patient to have a Turkish bath. .1 The master's report showed there were 47 persons, not included under medica-l treatment," in the House. I Marks not Work. Mr. Harrv Williams called attention to the fact that it was proposed to meet to deal with Infirmary cases at 3.30 p.m., half-an-hour before the ordinary meeting of the Visiting Committee. It was onty fair, he argued, that those who attended at the earlier hour should have an extra mark. "For instance," be added, "Mr. Freedman has just come in. I move that it be a recom- mendation from this meeting to the d Boar. Mr. Thomas opposed the motion. Mr. Freydman remarked that if he came in late, he often stayed till eight or nine o'clock, whereas Mr. Williams went just after tea! (Laughter.) The Chairman: Shall we defer it till after the annual meeting P Mr. H. YVilliams disagreed; Mr. Thomas was for having the matter im- mediately decided. Mr. Bowen favoured, and Mr. Rindle opposed. the proposed mark." Mr. Thomas thought it. was a question with the Guardians of marks, not of work. Mr. Freedman: Hear, hear. Dwindling Meetings. Tue Chairman said he fully agreed with the discussion, they knew the meetings sometimes dwindled, and he thought it very unfair that those who remained should have to transact a lot of business, while others just stayed long enough toO get their ma.rk. On a vote, the matter was deferred; and no other business being immedi- ately available, tea was called for.

HULLO, HULLO, HULLO! I (Continued from Page 1.) executive they had e lected, and it was j open to them to make a change. That was what had to be put before the workers of the country, for, if he had a true conception of them, he was not satisfied that there would be much j change at the. next election. Too much energy and time were wasted in discuss- j ing political instead of economic sub- jects. Mr. O'Donnell (Manchester) opposed the resolution. He was not prepared, because he joined a trade union, to back up a political party by surrendering aj portion of his political philosophy.! Politcal action had been tried and found j wanting. Ths Glasgow delegates moved to add to the resolution a clause to the effect that if a ballot were favourable to poU? j tical action, affiliation to the Labour ¡ Party should take place. This was opposed by Mr. Young, th? Parliamentary ?'retary, and Mr. Nash, a London delegate, deprecated the in- traduction of an outside issue where j the matter was merely one of legalising their position as a trade union. Another London delegate condemned the Labour party as a. "dishonourable th?, La b oiir r r tT a"' a, adjunct of the Liberal Party," and de- ¡ nounced its representative on the Holt I Committee for not withdrawing from its deliberations. Danger of a Split. I 'Mr. Canavan (Manchester) said that if the amendment were carried it would split the Association in two. In Man- cUter they had had enough of pcUtica.! action, and quite sufficient of the l?teral party. But for that-party th? mines would now have been ationali'Sed. One delegate declared that to a?L them to play the Ltica¡ game was ¡ like putting up thc?fh?s? cn?npton to box Carpentier. In the end the amendment was de-1 ifeated by 120 votes to 74, and the i motion carried, the executive accepting j an amendment that no affiliation shonid } take place without a definite vote being j taken. j
