FASHIONABLE WEDDING. PHILIPPS—GWYNNE-HUGHES. GREAT REJOICINGS AT LLANDILO. Llandilo was densely crowded and dressed io its gayest garb on Thursday on the occasion of the wedding of Mr Henry Edward Erasmus Pliilipps, son and heir of Sir Charles Philipps, Picton Castle, and Miss Victoria Lili Owynne-Hughes, Tregeyb, Llandilo. During the whole of the morning guests poured from all parts into the small, picturesquely situated Carmarthenshire town. a big contingent arriving from Pembrokeshire. Here were abundant indications of the popularity of the bride among her neighbours for everywhere there were greetings, and from everywhere Hags and streamers, banners and bannerettes Huttered in the breeze. In the decorations the rose most appropriately pre- dominated, especially in the lovely park of Tregeyb a sylvan retreat about half a mile from Llandilo Bridge, over the entrance to which there had been erected a magnificent archway with English and Welsh mottoes worked most artistically in the great artificial bower which the household staff and tenantry had erected to greet the happy couple. Such devices as Ilir oc-s Dedwyddwch," Long life and happiness" met the eye at every turn, whilst the church of St. Teilo, where the ceremony, took place, was one mass of colour. The chancel was profusely decorated with hot house plants and 5IR. H. E. E. PHILIPPE. MISS G-WYNXK HUGHES. flowers, tall palms, and a high screen of flowers from which hung a lloral bell, by Messrs Parsons, of Swansea. The nave and nave arcade were decorated most beautifully by friends of the bride in Llandilo, the pillars being entwined with ivy, and in the windows were clusters of roses and the gorgeous chrysanthemum. AT THE CHURCH. The church was crowded for nearly an hour before the service was timed to begin. Punctually at half-past two the bridal party walked up the aisle of the church, the interesting service commencing with the singing of the hymn— Lead us, Heavenly father, lead us O'er the world's tempestuous sea Guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us, For we have no help but Thee, &c. The officiating clergy were the Lord Bishop of St. David's, Canon Haign of Bristol. Canon Gray Lloyd of Cresborough, Rev. D. Orpen, of Great Shellford (uncle of the bridegroom), Rev. T. Walwyn Trumper of Clifford, and the Rev. R. Williams, vicar of the parish. The service was fully choral, with Mr Daniels, the church organist, at the organ. PICTO CASTLE, the IIome of the Bridegroom.

Bitten By An Adder. LITTLE GUlL'S PRESENCE OF MIND. SUCKED OUT THE POISON. A case of a little child having been bitten by an adder and an older sister's presence of mind in sucking out the poison is reported from Freystrop. It appears that the other day the two-year-old daughter of Mr John Hier, Windy Hill, Freystrop, was playing a few yards from the doorstep when she picked up an adder, and evidently put it to her mouth for the adder bit her in three or four places inside the lower lip. An older sister, about 12 years of age, shortly afterwards came upon the scene, and seeing the adder in the baby's hand realised what had happened. She destroyed the adder and then sucked out a portion of the poison from her little sister's lip. There is no doubt that a great deal of the poison was in this way extracted, but she probably did not notice that the lip was bitten on the right side as well, for while the left side of the face did not seem to have been affected, the right side was soon swoollen to a fearful size. Dr. Wilson, of Haver- fordwest, was summoned, and the case was regarded as serious. Fortunately the amount of poison left in the body was not sufficient to bring about fatal results, and the little girl has now practically recovered. The older sister is deserving of every praise for her heroism and presence of mind.

General Lloyd at Haverford- west. TERRITORIAL ENTHUSIASM. I PATRIOTIC EXPRESSION OF A FREE PEOPLE. Major General Lloyd, C.B., D.S.O., the officer commanding the Western Division of the Territorials visited Haverfordwest on Monday evening, and in- spected the headquarters company. The General, who was accompanied by Major J. S. King-King, D.S.O., was met at the railway station by the mayor (Councillor Isaiah Reynolds), Captain and Adjutant, F. S. Stoddart, and Captain W. J. Jones. The Company—about fifty strong—assembled at the Armoury, and, after having been put through a number of evolutions by Captain W. J. Jones who was in command, marched on to the St. Thomas Green, where General Lloyd conducted a minute in- spection. The other officers present were Major King-King, Col. W. R. Roberts, V.D., Captain and Adjutant Stoddart, Lieutenant Howard, together with the Mayor of Haverfordwest, and the town clerk (Mr R. T. P. Williams). General Lloyd also in- spected the Boys' Brigade in command of Captain C. J. Wright and Sergeant-Major Pearce, and expressed himself delighted with the appearance of the men and the boys. Addressing the men. General Lloyd said he was delighted to come to Haverfordwest to inspect the I Headquarter's Company of the 4th Battalion of the Welsh Regiment. He only wished he could have seen the whole Company, but he understood that half of it was quartered some distance away. lie wished Haverfordwest could produce a Headquarter's Company of its own-entirely of its own,—and he hoped that the time was not far distant when that would be accomplished. He Was delighted with the turn-out. He understood they were to have their red coats soon, and if they turned out in that so well as they done in their khaki they ought to be thoroughly satisfied. There were three things a soldier must do to be an efficient soldier, proceeded the General. The first was that he must be able to shoot. He did not know what their shooting record was, but he was sure that they would be able to come up to the efficiency required. There was no room in the King's Army for a third class shot—every soldier must learn to use a rIfle properiv and must only be satisfied with absolutely accurate results. The Company's physique was good, and there was no question of their being ably trained. He was very glad to see many of them wearing sensible boats a soldier was of no use unless he possessed sound and serviceable boats. There was another thing to which he would like to call their attention, it was that they should have regard to discipline. Being good shots was useless if they were not well disciplined. They had most conipetent officers, and what they told them to do they must do quickly and well. He was glad to find that the battalion of which that Company was a part was practically up to estab- lishment, and were entitled to their colours from the King. lie regretted that they were not forth- coming, but it was only a matter of a short timeo For some time there had been some apprehension as to the meaning of a territorial Army. It was established for the defence of the country, and not for defiance. The battalion was nearly up to the strength required, and he might sav that the Welsh Division stood 5,000 men stronger- tjjail it was four months ago—a patriotic expression of a free people, who meant to remain free. It was a sure sign that invasion would not be attempted if they were pre- pared to resist invasion. If they were not prepared for invasion it was certain that invasion would come. It would come if they allowed an opportunity to psesent itselfand when the enemy had become tired of attending to their own affairs and wished to concentrate their attention on a favoured land such as ours. They were xceeedlngly delighted with the enthusiasm with which the territorial scqeme had been grasped in W a es. lie was sure that if necess- ary, the Territorial Army m that part of Wales would be ready aye,Readier even than they were a hundred years ago-to repel an invasion. With regard to the Boj s Brigade the General said that he was delighted to have bad an opportunity of in- specting them. He looked forward to seeing all of them in the ranks of the Territorial Army. He con- gratulated them on having such an able instructor. He complimented them on what they had already done, and he might safely congratulate them on what they were going to do in the future. The Mayor said he was sure he was expressing the sentiments of all present when he said thev were delighted to have a visit from such a distinguished general. He coiagratulated the War Office upon having appointed such a noted officer to the com- mand of the Western Division. He also con- gratulated them upon appointing a Welshman. General Lloyd was a, Welshman to the backbone, and bad very distinguished Cymric ancestors. He (the Mayor) was also glad to find that lie had strong local connections. The General had told him that he was rather surprised at the youthful appearance of those who had served in the company for such a long period. Proceeding the Mayor said that it was mainly due to the efforts of General blovd that the battalion had reached its present strength, and the fact that only the last four months 5,000 men had joined spoke volumes for his enthusiasm and energy. He hoped that when he would again visit Haverford- west, they would have a company of their own. Colonel Roberts also spoke, and said he wished to acknowledge the kind expressions made by General Lloyd respecting the efficiency of the company. They had been looking forward to his visit with great pleasure. Haverfordwest was large enough to have a company of its own without having to relv upon support from outside. In the course of a few additional remarks General Llovd said that the mcrease in the strength of the Territorial Army in Wales was not due to himself, but to the Majois of the different towns in the Principality.

TRAVELLING WITHOUT A TICKET. I Frank Hatch, Stanton, near Gloucester, was summoned for travelling on the G.W.R. from Gloucester to Carmarthen without a ticket, and with intent to avoid payment of his fare. Mr H. D. Williams, solicitor, prosecuted on behalf of the Railway Co. Defendant wrote a letter to the court in which he pleaded guilty to travelling without a ticket, but he denied that there was any fraudulent intent. Owing to having a drink before leaving Gloucester, he carelessly omitted to take his ticket- Oil the way down he fell in with a party of sea-faring men who had some bottles of whisky, and he joined this party at their pressing invita- tion. (Laughter). He added that he paid his fare from Carmarthen to Haverfordwest. Mr Williams said that after the bench had heard his witnesses, he did not think they would have the least difficulty in coming to the conclusion that it was a case of deliberate fraud. J. Brist, junior guard on the train leaving Paddington at 9.15 p.m., said that on April 13 he saw the defendant get into the train at Gloucester. In fact, he asked witness if that was the train for Haverfordwest. The party of men with the defendant were not sea-faring men at all, but dealers whom he knew very well by sight. At Newport they told witness that the defendant had got out at Chepstow. At Haverfordwest defendant declared that he had only come from Whitland. A ticket collector on the same train said that defendant paid him his fare from Carmarthen. Though not drunk, defendant seemed to be a litttle shaky. Mr Williams Was he short of money ? Witness Very short. He had to borrow the money to pay his railway fare from Carmarthen to Haverfordwest. A fine of 10s and 14s 6d costs was imposed. 1 ASSAULTING A CHILD. Elizabeth A. Morris, North Parade, summoned Arthur I Bowen, Scarrowscant, for assaulting her child. Defendant admitted the offence. Annie Elliston told the court that she heard a smack from her door, and afterwards Mrs Morris's girl screamed. The assault happened in Mrs Morris's house. Bowen admitted having gone into the house and smacked the child, and he did this because the child had been throwing stones at his child. Fined 2s Gd and 7s G1 costs. SCHOOL ATTENDANCE. Frank Phelps, Back Lane, Frendergast, was fined 2s tid inclusive for neglecting to send his child regularly to schooL I TEMPORARY TRANSFER.

The Clerk told the applicant that this license had been referred for compen- sabon. MrsPugh, formerly of the Clobe isu, rp?r Market Street, was granted a temporary transfer of the licence of the Riaema.Q. A CHILDREN'S COI RT. After the public business, a children's court was held when two boys, Sidney Davies, Dark Street, and William Drinning, Church Street, were charged with obstructing Church Street by playing Cat and dog." Cat and dog explained P.C. Jones (police clerk), is a very dangerous game, especially when played in a public street. The" cat," a small sharp-pointed stick, narrowly missed striking one witness after a tremendous hit by the dog." Witness added that be had previously spoken to the boy Drinning about this game being played in the streets, D.C.C. James remarked that the game was very i dangerous to the children themselves as well as to street .emselves as well as to street passengers, i The case was dismissed with a caution, the Mayor telling the boys that the game was very objectionable and dangerous. For a game like that they must go to some open space like the Racecourse. ENVIOUS OF THE BOYS' BRIGADE. Alexander Evans, Milford Road, admitted a chargo of throwing stones in Dew Street. Douglas James, Shipman's Lane, who appeared with his brigade gun, said that while standing outside the Carpenter's Arms in Dew Street, a stone was thrown over the heads of some boys on the wall, striking the stock of his gun and knocking off about 1, inches. He did not see the defendant throw the stone. D.C.C. James mentioned that this summons was taken out on the complaint of Sergt-Major Pearce because it appeared that the members of the Brigade were subject to a lot of annoyance, especially from this lad. Defendant said he was only playing. Sergt-Major Pearce said the stone thrown weighed lib 111 ounces. It appeared that this lad's father would not allow him to join the Brigade, but if he had, added the Sergt-Major, he would not have been guilty of this. D.C.C. James You would have taught him better manners. Sergt-Major Pearce replied in the effirmative. The defendant said he met the stone in the gutter. The Mayor, in imposing n fine of Is. said there was no excuse for this conduct. He hoped the lad's father would allow him to join the Brigade, and perhaps that would make him a better boy.

The many friends of the Rev. 1\ Hnssey, formerly pastor of Liangwm Baptist Church and North Hoad Baptist Cimrch, Milford Haven, will be gratified to bear of his appointment to the important position of secretary to the Monmouthshire Baptist Association. During his sojourn in Milford he endeared himself to his people and took a prominent part in public matters generally and is still affectionately remem- bered. A PERILOUS POSITION. On Saturday morning at the Police Court, Thomas Davies, trimmer, and a native of Pembroke, was brought before Mr J. Whicher on a charge of drunkenness on Milford Docks. Dock P.S. lIeber Evans thus related the circumstances. At 12.15 that morning in company of P.C.'s Rigby and Johns, he found prisoner Jy-ing on the edge of the (uay in the Fish Market. He was helplessly drunk and dead to the world. Indeed his condition was such that they had to carry him all the way to the Police Station. The position where he was found was most dangerous for a slight turn would have placed him in the Dock. He was not there at ten minutes to twelve and defendant did not know how he got there. Prisoner pleaded guilty and could give no account of himself, but said he had been drinking all the afternoon. In fining him 2s (id, Mr Whicher commented upon the danger to which he had exposed himself. .«. MILFORD LAD'S SAD DEATH. The sad intelligence reached his parents last week of the death of Golden Newing, in New York. The deceased young man was only 19 years of age, and was the second son of Mr G. E. Newing, Dart- mouth Street, late Q.M.S. Pembroke R.G.A. and a few years back he joined Mr Wheatly Cobb's training ship the Foudroyant" which was then stationed in the harbour. Subsequently he entered the Mercantile Marine in the service of the White Star Line of Mail Steamers. His vessel being the Oceanic." About a fortnight since he was taken seriouly ill with pneumonia and was conveyed to the St. Vincent Hospital. Xew York. Reports were received to the effect that he was doing well. but on Whit-Monday a cablegram brought the sad tidings that he had passed away. Deceased was getting on well in the service and was a great favourite, and the news of his untimely end has cast a gloom upon his associates, and much sympathy is felt for the family. At s a.m. on Sunday a requiem celebra- tion of the Holy Eucharist took place at St. Catherine's Parish Church, the vicar. Rev. E. J. Howells, B.D., being the celebrant. There was a large attendance. WESLE 1 AX ANNIVERSARY. The annual services in celebration of the erection of the Priory Road Wesleyan Church were held on Sunday last. The preacher for the day was the Rev. F. Russell Watson, of Penarth. Splendid congrega- tions gathered at both morning and evening services. The morning text was taken from Isaiah ,2. verse 2, "Andaman shall hide thee from the wind." The burden of the message was that Christ was primarily the shelter spoken of, but that every man was also intended for the same great purpose. The preacher dwelt at length on the "influence" exerted by us upon our fellows. Doing was essential and he did not wish to depreciate its value in the least, but he contended that it was not so much what we did, but wbat a man was, that told and that had an inrl uenee for good or evil. The points were made very clear and left their impression. At the evenmg service, Mr Watson took for his subject, "Character," and based his remarks upon the words, The express image." The rev. gentleman's ministrations were highly appreciated and the officers hope to secure him for another similar occasion. The offerings throughout the day were for the building fund and we are pleased to say amounted to a sum approach- ing i'00. FISH TRADE AND TRAFFIC.

An unusual number of deaths have been recorded in the town during the past week the victims being of all ages. A young woman named Lambert, living with her sister in Priory Road, passed away after a protracted illness, the funeral taking place at her native place, St. Ishmael's. On Friday Mrs Burder, also of Priory Road, wife of Captain Burder. of the s.t. Osprey. had a sudden seizure and expired late the same night.

On Sunday night Mrs Sarah Jane Hayes. living at .:J; Robert Street, passed away suddenly at the age of 15. An inquest is likely to be held. A very old inhabitant in the person of Mr 11.

LLANGWM'S CHARACTERISTICS. To the Editor of the Milford Haven Telegraph." SIK, —Kindly allow me a little space in your valuable paper to reply to the writer of the erroneous article which appeared in your issue of June 2nd. It appears to me tnat the writer does not know what he is talking about. He says It is the women who go out to earn the were- withal to keep the home going, while in the majority of cases the husband stays at home charged with the domestic responsibilities. This does not appear as strange to anyone in Llangwm, where it has received the sanction of successive generations ever since the colony was founded." May I ask when was the colony founded V And is not the writer aware that the majority of the men work in the Pembroke yard ? His statement is ludicrous, if not a trifle ID"d. With regard to the Parish Council, it may be more wonderful that any circus and the writer may be more wonderful than any clown." Mr may or may not be interdicted. Personally, I have sever attended a Parish Council meeting. But when the writer goes on to say If there is one thing, which the Council enioy more than another it is a real live controversy with tne Parson over his administration of the parochial charities, this statement, in my opinion, is false. The Councillors have too much respect for the Rev. H. Evans to enter into any such controversy. And, moreover, he is higly esteemed by all in the village. Foreigners are not welcomed at Llangwm." Well, my mother has lived in the village for thirty -four years, aud she does not find any fault with them. But, of course, Mr Editor, one will allow this Sir Oracle to kn ow more about the village than a person who has resided for so many years amongst them. Again, one would like to know when the unfamiliar person was subjected to such ill-treatment, Will the writer be good enough to inform one when it happened With regard to dancing, the villagers have very little time for such amusements. Dr. Torrey said All persons who dance and gamble will go to hell." Perhaps they agree with him. Now when the writer talks about liter- ature that is read in the village, he is talking nonsense. It was a fisherman who first induced me to read Mr Robert Blatchford's works. And I can assure him that some of the young men are well acquainted with the writing of Robert Blatchford. Just a few words on superstition. The writer would have one believe that the villagers are afraid to pass a churchyard after dark. One would infer from this that they are afraid cf ghosts. They may believe in ghosts so did Professor Romanes, the great scientist. Xow, Mr Editor, my advice to thit ignoramus is, before he attempts to write another article about the \illage, let him endeavour to ascertain the truth. I admit that I am the Laird of Udny's fool. But whc,sefoo! is he:- I remain, sir, Yours truly, Holioway House, Llangwm. J. H. PALMER.
