Defendant said his wife had lived with.! him since the order was made, and she 1-eit him six weeks ago. lie the order was fur h. u week, and the magistrates directed liim to pay lis. The wile applied for an increase in the order, hecause she had now three children, jnstead or one when the order was made. J his application was adjourned for a week, so that defendant might give a statement oi his average wug<'s. ABERAVON. MI LK FROSECUTION, The Ketail Dairy Co. was summoned by the police for having sold to a purchaser milk not of the quality demanded by the purchaser. Mr. Lewis M. Thomas prosecuted, and All. J Hails Row lands dot ended. Supt. Hen Lvans, inspector under the Food and Drugs Act, aaid lie had taken a sampJe from a Mr. Hces, milk salesman, and had had it analysed by the i'u'oJie A.n;t]yst, who certified it as being defi- cient of butter to the extent of 6 per cent. Mr. HowJunds put in a warranty upon which the defence relied, and said if he could prowe that the milk was untouched afterward' he was entitled to a dismissal of the ease. Alf. Thomas Brown said he had 20 gal- lons of milk from the previous bight, and he sent. 17 gallons to Swansea, keeping the three gallons for t-ale at A beravon. Tito defendants were lined £ 10 and ad- rocate\» fve. ASSAULT BY A WOMAN. ,Nlr,i. L'Iiz. Stone. 11i, Copper-row, Cwm- a^ou, summoned Mr.s. James, Yelindre, Aberaxol), v.ith assaulting her in the Market-place. Aberavon. on Fridav luet Mrs. James denied the allegation, and said that the complainant knocked her hat off.

Hyland was charged with a breach of the regulations imposed by t.he Defence of the Kealm Act in failing to comply with an order to slop his ship, the schooner Campbeltown, of which he was the master, at the command of the ex- amination officer on entering Milford harbour. Mr. Wynne. Pembroke Dock, prosecuted on behalf of the King's harbour master. He said that by the time dr^'endant stoppwl lie had got his vessel on the boom, ening serious damage.

i SWANSEA. Win. Chappell, aged 19. single, fe- | jeiding at 33, Pottery-road. Swansea, was j found dead in bed on Thursday morning; by the landlord of the Fox and Hound- I-z) n. On Wednesday a picnic party from the (Jreenhill district, arranged by Nt r, Owen, went to ront-Neath-Yauglian. Dinner and tea were partaken of at the local hostelry. Mr. J. Dymond gan-e various selections on the melodeon, which were much appreciated. Some of the Swansea school children are highly indignant at the charge that they go to school sleepy. A boy in one of the upper standards was heard to say that the real position was cluite the reverse, for some of the teachers in his school were yawning practically all day. Pienie parties will have to be on their best behaviour in the future if they wish to enjoy the beauties of Gower. Becently there have been some rowdy scenes at Parkmill, and the language used has boon very objectionable. The, climax was reached a few days ago, when the "powers that be" ordered a party to return home earlier than they intended. The most iw- forunate part of it was that the innocent had to sune:' fur the guilty, as all and sundry had to quit.

MUfclBLES. A Jarge num?r of picnickers vi«it?d the village on Thursday, the majorit, from surrounding Welsh-speaking districts.! The weather was unfavourable for sight- seeing, and tho visitors whiled- away the tjjne by singing Welsh airs and hymn- tunes.

Jones, m-etalmerchant Scat-h. it wiU be remembered, was h'tcj ?Os. for j failing to regish\, fuj] particulars the i. Pllrchae of brass.

U-AMDEBIE. T'te. J. Ballot, who although only 16, has been through over seven months of actual j warfaro in Prance, was given a public re- i epption on his return on sick leave. He is the youngest soldier in his battalion. Rev. I J.

TI10 Kev. J. Evans Jones also spoke. A vote of condolence with the family of Pte. R(.»!>crt Jones (killed at the front) was adopted in silence.

AMMANFORD. Corpl. C. Merrick, son of Mr. Merrick, Station-road, has now been promoted ser- geant. lIe has seen active service abroad, but was invalided home and is now sta- tioned at a training camp. At a special meeting of the Chamber of Trade on Tuesday night, Mr. J. Carruthers presiding, a motion was brought forward to rescind a resolution passed at the pre-, vious meeting granting the annual shop assistants' holiday, on the 13th inst. After a prolonged discussion, the Chamber de- cided to adhere to its former lesolvftion. Mr. Douglas T. White, organist at All Saints' Church, is leaving the town Lor his home at Surrey owing to ;il-h.u .til. During his stay of eighteen uj,itiis Mr. White has done excellent work, and 011 his I depnfture has received many marks of appreciation ffom choir bud cong -egati.m.

NEYLAND. Dr. Dandas, the medical officer of health for the Nevland Urban District, preRented his annual report at the ( monthly meeting of the Council, Mr. J. V. Harriee presiding, and it proved to be of ft rather disquieting nature. He stated that the sinitary condition of the town was only fairly satisfactory, and there had been a great deal of illness, which had been considerably above the average of previous years. In 1915 the number of births was 68. compared with 54 in 1914, and the number (Ji' deaths 49. against 41 in the previous year. The infantile mor- tality had also increaeed from seven to ten. fit, considered, as a medical man, that these figures were full of meaning, ¡' and indicated an alarming situation that it would be foolhardy in the extreme to ignore. Mr. Skone said that the sanitary ign,ore. ,N I r. inspector nftvor visited butcher shops o- bakehouses, and never presented a report to a meeting. An old and respected resident of Ny- land psseed away on Thursday in tho person of Miss Kate Davidge, of the South Wales Hotel.
