Haverfordwest Guardians. CONTEST FOR THE UHAIK. MR. S. W. DAWKINS RE-ELECTED. The annual meeting of the Haverfordwest Board of Guardians was held on Wednesday last, when the members present were :—Mr J. T. Fisher (chairman pro tern), Mr S. W. Dawkins (retiring chairman), Messrs W. George James, E. J. Martin, T. G. Lewis, J. T. Ll. Davies, John Reyno!ds (Treglemais), J. S. Roborts, Joseph Watts. Vincent Johns, W. G. James (Pantyphilip), Rev. Heury Evans, Rev. J. J. Evans, S. T. Williams, George Davies, T. Baker, F. P. Gwyther, J. C. Bowen, J. Llewellyn Davies, J. Lloyd Lewis, Victor J. Higgon, K. Ll. Palmer, Levi Evans. J. Fergusson, J. R. Richards, Lewis Phillips, William Roberts, H. P Griffiths, William Thomas, Joseph Roberts, John Williams, Charles Mathias, T. H. Llewellin, W. H. Walters, W. E. Evans, Richard Harries, H. Warren Davis. (St. Ishmaels), George Williams, Philip Rees, J. n. Prosser, John Luke, George Jenkins, J. Perkins, Rev. A. Baring-Gould, James Jenkins, T. R. Vaughan, J. L. Llewellin, Thomas Bateman, G. M. Harries, J. J. Morris, Archdeacon Hilbers, J. P. Sinnett, Ll. J. Meyler, John George (Trefgarn), Thomas Mathias, Thomas Roberts, John Davies, R. N. Reynolds, W. H. Davies (Johnston), Rev. D. J. Jones, David Evans, G. Gihby Peikins, George Thomas, T. F. Jenkins, Thomas James, T. Lewis and W. Phillips. ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN. Mr E. J. Martin said that no one held the out-going chairman in higher esteem than he did—Mr Dawkins had filled the office with honour to himself and with credit to the Board,—but m his opinion it would be wiser if the honour went round, and be given in turn to other members of the Board who devoted considerable time to their work. Mr T. G. Lewis seconded. He said that he had always regarded it as unfortunate that one gentleman should be pitted against another for the office of chairman. His idea was that it would be better to consider the question entirely apart from personalities. They all knew several gentlemen who attended very regularly and had shown great devotion to the work of administering the Poor L'tw and it was only right for the Board to reoogniso their labours by honouring them when they could. In almost all public bodies this change was made, and he had failed to find any tangible reason why the Haverford- west Guardians should not adopt the same policy occasionally. Indeed it would be better to change every year and break np this old sinecure, which had been in existence far too long. There were other gentlemen quit*; as capable, perhaps, as the chairman for the larst tbive years. They all loved Mr Dawkins-love was the wjid -because he was one of nature's gentlemen, and he was sure there was not a memuer of the old Beard with th slightest grievance against him. As seconder of the present motion, however, he could assure him that there were no personalities, nothing behind the scenes in connec- tion with it. (Hear, hear.) Rev. Henry Evans, while agreeing with the general principle that there should be a change in the occupation of the chair of public bodies, pointed out that the specific work of Guardians required intimate knowledge ot almost every case on the books and if they changed their chair- man year after year they would never have the advantage of close and thorough acquaintance with the duties. They would be landed in a maze of difficulty every year. Mr Dawkins would iot expect any flattery from him- (laughter)-and when he said it he spoke with aH sincerity and heartiness, that Mr Dawkins had proved an excellent chairman and that they could not possibly have a better one. (Applause). Mr Davies (Johnston), and a number of other guardians seconded. Mr J. Llewellyn Davies pointed out that in order to avoid unpleasantness, each guardian should write the name of his candidate on a slip of paper with his own name appended. This was seconded by Mr J. S Roberts. Mr John Reynolds (Treglemais), observed that they should have the courage of their convictions, and vote without fear or favour. After some discussion, it was decided by 31 votes to Hi, that the Clerk should take the voting in a book. Mr W. G. James said that as he had occupied the vice- chair it might presumably be taken by many that he was a candidate for the chairmanship. He wished to say at once that he was not a candidate. He was very sorry to disappoint several who might possibly desire to vote for him, but he felt that he could not attend regularly. He lived a distance of 16 miles from Haverfordwest, and five miles from a railway station, so that it would be impossible for him to keep in constant touch with the work even if he were elected. For the same reason he would retire from the vice-chair though that might be considered the stepping stone to the chair. I Mr E. J. Martin remarked that Mr James had rather taken the wind out of his sails, yet he would not with- draw his motion that a change should be made. The Chairman pointed out that Mr Dawkins had been proposed, which meant that there should be no change. Mr Llewellyn Davies said that as attention to the work of the Board and ability should be recognised, he had great pleasure in proposing that Mr T. G. Lewis be elected. Mr J. Watts seconded. A vote was then takon with the following resuJt :-For Mr Dawkins, 46 for Mr Lewis, IG. On the motion of Mr Lewis, seconded by Mr Llewellyn Davies, Mr Dawkins was then unanimously elected amid applause, and took the chair. POOR LAW CHANGES. Returning thanks, Mr Dawkins said that he hardly

deserved the very flattering remarks that some gentle- men had used in reference to him. During the coming year, he added, they would see Some very important changes in the administration of the Poor Law. There was one change suggested that Boards of Guardains did not agree with, and that was the abolition of Guardians and the transfer of their duties to committees of the County Council. Last November he attended a meeting of the Poor Law Association in London, on behalf of the Board, and he could uot help noticing that the feeling of the delegates in this matter was most pronounced. The Chair- man, at the close of his address said When the majority and minority reports come up for consideration we shall be there, and when the question of the abolition of guardians is brought up we shall have something to say on the matter." Last year be (Mr Dawkins), ventured to prophesy some changes in the Poor Law. Already one very important change had been effected, viz, the board- ing out of orphan children. It had been customary for the relkjving officers to attend to these cases, but they were no longer to deal with this question. There was a committee to be appointed called the boarding-out committee," and one-third of the members were to be ladies. It was sitiafactory to find that the women of Pembrokeshire had come forward to sit on this committee and to assist in caring for orphan children. (Hear, hear). He had great pleasure in welcoming the new guardians. He hoped they would be found in their places frequently during the coming year. (Hear, hear). Some of the guardians had worked extremely well, and had shown great interest in their duties others, on the other hand, should he say, had not attended to their work so well ? (Laighter). And there were just a few whom they never saw at all. There was an old saying that a new broom swept clean. He hoped the new members would continue to evince interest in the business of the Board. They had to look after the interests of the ratepayers as well as those of the paupers. The ratepayer was a much abused person these days. He was not thought much of, except as an object of taxation. (Laughter). VICE-CHAIRMAN. The names of Mr J. T. Fisher, Mr Howell Walters Rav. Henry Evans, Mr Georgo Davies, Prendergast, and Mr V. R. Johns were submitted as candidates for the vice-chairmanship, but they all declined. Mr J. Watts observed that the vice-chairman should be from the north, and he proposed Mr Johns, who declined, stating amid laughter that he did not know what he had done to merit such an honour. Mr J. Llewellyn Davies proposed Mr E. J. Martin. This was seconded by Mr J. S. Roberts, and generally supported. Mr Martin was eventually unanimously elected, and returned thanks. COMMITTEES.

Salvage Award. I
Salvage Award. I RESCUE OF A CREW. I Sir Samuel T. Evans, President of the Probate, Divorce and Admiralty Division, resumed the hearing on Wednesday last of the action by the Great Western Railway Company, the owners, masters, and crew of the as. Pembroke, of Milford, and the owners of the ss. Sir Francis Drake, and the owners and masters of the ss. Sunlight of Liverpool, aganist the owners of the Spanish steamship Uribitarto for salvage. The defendants admitted certain salvage services, and said their vessel was valued at iM,.300. The services, as fully described in yesterday's issue, were rendered on October 24th, 1909 off the Pembrokeshire coast, near St. David's Head. The masters of the Pembroke gave a graphic descrip- tion of the rescue of the crew of the Uribitarte. He said they threw a life line, and drew the men out of the boat. At that time they were nearly 300 yards away from the Bell Rocks. ALL THE CREW VOLUNTEERED. Sir S. T. Evans Where did you call for the volunteers from ?-From amongst our own crew. All the crew came forward. I took the chief officer, the quartermaster two seamen, and a fireman. We launched the lifeboat on the starboard side. I went to pick the boat up, and give them a hawser. This was the third time I had to go between the ship and the rocks. While we were turning the boat came in contact with the side of our own ship. The boat was smashed and three of the men thrown In the water. Sir S. T. Evans Not all of them ?—No, only three. One seaman bad his face badly cut. Sir S. T. Evans What became of the men in the water r—They were pulled out. We got them on deck. Mr Baden Powell, K.C., here reminded the Court that five men wore still missing. Of the crew of 25, twenty were rescued. THE AWARD. i The President, delivering judgment, said it was admitted by tho defence that salvage services had been rendered by each set of plaintiffs. The question for the Court was whether the remuneration should be given in respect of property or life, or in respect of both. There was no doubt as to the state the Uribitarte was in because the master and officers had decided to abandon her. She was I" grave peril of beidg lost altogether. The Pem- broke had rendered services m saving life, but not in salving property, but the master of the Pembroke rptidered great service in transferring himself to the Sir Francis Drake, which ultimately salved the property. Under the circumstances he had decided to award the salvage as fellows :-The Sunlight £ 2-30, the Pembroke X200, and the Sir Francis Drake £ 1,000— £ 1,450 iia all.
A VALUABLE BICYCLE. I
A VALUABLE BICYCLE. After an ordinary bicycle has been ridden for about four years the owner is usually glad to sell it for a mere fraction of the price originally paid for it. There must be something extraordinary about a bicycle that increases in value with use. Mr Isaac Evans, of Mydrollyn, S.O., Cardiganshire, has a bicycle for which he would not now take the money it originally cost him four years ago, to use his own words, so thorough has the satisfaction it has given been. It is a Three Speed All Steel Raleigh. After four years wear, Mr Evans says it looks almost a uew machine.
NEYLAND URBAN COUNCIL,
NEYLAND URBAN COUNCIL, THE CHURCH LAKES BBIDGE. REDUCED PRICE OF GAS DESIRED. THE COUNCIL AND THE COMMONS. Mr G. M. Voyle presided at Monday night's meeting of the Neyland Urban Council, when the other members present were:-Messrs J. Skone, W. Evans, H. Jones, J. V. Harries, T. John, W. Gwilliam, W. F. James, J. James and N. D. Betty. "INTERJECTIONS." The Chairman said that Mr Thomson was still on the sick list, and therefore was unable to move his resolution to amend the standing order. in o¡], r to prevent inter- jections during debates. The Chairman suggested that the matter should stand over for a month. Mr W. Evans It will give Mr Thomson an oppor- tunity of displaying his talents when he does come here. (Laughter.) The Chairman's suggestion was accepted. THE COMMON HILLS. The Surveyor drew the attention of the works com- mittee to the state of the Common Hills, and particularly between Honeyborough Green and Neyland Vale. A large surplus of soil had been deposited by the council at i this place while executing private street works and also by the contractors while carrying out excavations for I building purposes. These deposits were carried away by the stream, blocking the culverts lower down, and damaging the road leading through Neyland Vale. It had come to his knowledge, a(ldil the Surveyor, that the water in the pump at Honeyborough was slightly discoloured, aud he immediately submitted samples to the Medical Officer of Health, who recommended that the well be pumped out to ascertain if there is any trace of sediment in the bottom, The Works Committee rpconamended that in reply to Mr Levi Davies's letter asking for a copy of the existing agreement between the Neyland Council ond himself with regard to the Common Hills quarry, Mr Davies be informed that the document may be seen at the council offices. Recommended that the attention of the County Council be drawn to the necessity of a bridge at Church Lakes, and urging that in the interest of economy the work should be put in hand during the summer. The tender of Mrs C. Sutton for railings for Picton Road widening at 7s 3d per yard lineal was also recommended for acceptance. The report was adopted. ASKED TO EXPLAIN. The public health and gas committee recommended that Mr Levi Davies be asked to explain his conduct in refusing to comply with the Sanitary Inspector's orders with reference to tipping rubbish on the Common Hills, to the detriment of the Council's road. The Chairman said the Commons had been kept pretty clean up to the present, no person being allowed to tip refuse there without the consent of the council. He thought Mr Levi Davies should be called upon to explain his conduct, and in the event of that explanation being unsatisfactory he hoped the committee would recommend strong measures. Mr John asked if the council had any authority for interfering in this matter. He pointed out that the council had not yet received the authority provided by the Provisional Order, because that had not been sanctioned. The Chairman We are taking action because of the detriment to our roads. We axe the highway authority, and even if we have not full control, as you suggest, we have the control of the roadway passing through the Commons. Mr T. John I think it is difficult to say that this ie a highway at all. Mr Gwilliam said the roadway was made by certain individuals. Mr W. Evans pointed out that Mr Gwilliam referred to another part of the road-that part leading from Mr Peter Evans's house to Mrs Martha Evans's. The road in question was situated between Neyland Vale and Houeyborough Green, Mr John: If you have the authority you are quite right to proceed. The Chairman said that if they regarded the matter from a public health point of view they should not allow the tipping of refuse on the Commons by private individuals. In the tipping of refuse by the council's contractors a stipulation was made that it should be a certain distance from the highway and from any dwelling. The Commons, he added, were situated practically in the heart of the town. Mr John I understand that it is not house refuse ? The Surveyor: It is house refuse purely and simply. The recommendation was adopted, Messrs John and Harries voting against. SATISFACTORY. The Surveyor reported to the paving, lighting and sanitary committee that he had inspected the dairies and cowsheds in the district and found them in a satisfactory state, every attention being paid to keeping them ventilated and periodically white-limed. He had also visited a number of workshops in the district, and in some I cases he had given instructions to have them limed. Acting under the Committee's instructions he had carried out the repairs to one of the main drains on the foreshore. He had found no sign of any leakage, and he had every reason to believe that a very good job was done, while the cost had not exceeded the estimate. With reference to public lighting, seeing that the Council had decided to light the streets for nine months in the year, he recom- mended the Council to discontinue the lighting ot the street lamps from the 17th May to the 7th August, both dates inclusive, and that all the burners and lamps should be carefully taken down, cleaned, and placed in the stores during the summer months. He also wished the Council to consider the advisability of painting the lamps and pillars this season. The public health and gas committee recommended that the street lamps ba not lighted from May 16th to August Gth, and that the lamp standards, &c,, be painted as recommended by the Surveyor; that James Finu be employed at 5s per day to remove lanterns (where necessary), and to remove all burners and cap the pipes as last vear. I THE PRICE OF GAS. The committee further recommended inai tneuierk be instructed to communicate with the G. W.R. Company, with a view to getting them to reduce the price of gas. Alluding to the last recommendation, the Chairman said he was sure everybody would agree to it. (Laughter). The Clerk The Railway Company left the door open. The recommendations of the committee were adopted. APPLICATION TO COUNTY COUNCIL. I The works committee's recommendation regarding Church Lakes Bridge led to an interesting discussion. The Chairman said that anyone who visited the Beach Road saw that the improvements remained iu an ill- completed state. A progressive body like the Pem- brokeshire County Council would, he felt sure, erect the bridge, because it was a road which was used by a large number of people. It was the direct road to Milford Haven workmen were stopped at IlazelbeeLch during spring tides, and children were often prevented attending school. This affected the grants for school attendance, and it was to the interest of the County Council to see that the grants were kept as high as possible. Because of all these things he felt sure that the County Council would carry the scheme through. Mr James James I am glad you have found out where the road leads us. Mr Mathias said it led to nowhere. (Laughter). Mr Betty said the Bridge was just what was required. Ifithe authorities all combined, Mr Betty asserted that the improvement could be carried out at a nominal cost. The bridge, added Mr Betty, would be a great benefit to the place, a benefit that we should all indulge in-in fact the whole County, the whole population, the entire community. And we should get a lot of visitors here—heaps of them. I am most happy to see this minute of the Works Committee." Replying to Mr Harries, the Chairman said that, roughly, the erection of the bridge would cost £500. Mr Harries What would be our portion of the cost ? The Chairman That is not the question. We are now asking the county council to put the bridge there. Mr Harries It was suggested that the other parishes should co-operate. The Chairman: We failed with the district council, and now we are asking the county council to take up the matter. The committee's recommendation was adopted. THE EXCUSE LIST. Mr Harries called attention to the excuse list," and asked whether some poor occupants of houses could not be excused payment of the rates. The Chairman said the excuse list had been approved for the next six months, but in the case of small tene- ments, in respect of which the owners paid the rates, they could net excuse payment of rates. The council had excused two poor widows who owned their own houses. Mr Harries remarked that he was glad the widows referred to had been excused, and the matter dropped. THE CHAIRMAN'S POSITION. Mr John said he had a question to ask which he hoped would be accepted in the spirit in which it was put. He desired to know whether Mr Voyle could be chairman of the council and hold the office of overseer to the parish. Mr Voyle Oh, yes. All the council have to do is to appoint the overseers. They have no control over them. ap The Clerk If the overseers are not appointed by May 6th, the Board of Guardians will appoiat them for us.
Milford Mackerel Theft.
Milford Mackerel Theft. TWO FISHERMEN CONVICTED. Two fishermen, Arthur Harrison and Joseph Nuttall were brought up at a special police court at Milford on Wednesday, before Dr. Griffith and Mr R. Cole, charged with stealing about 40 mackerel, of the value of 5s the property of Wm. Thomas Roach, The Pill, Milford. Albert Barrett, a boy 13 years of age, sou of T. Barrett, house furnisher, said he was in the mackerel market on Wednesday, April 20, when the defendants told him to go out as they wanted to shut the door. lIe went outside and ran up to the other end of the market, where he saw the two men take some mackerel out of boxes and put them into a barrel. The mackerel were afterwards transferred from a barrel into a bag. There was another boy with witness, and the men gave each of them some mackerel saying Don't tell." The men proceeded in the direction of Newton Noyes, but as witness was going away Mr Roach caught him and told him to accompany him to the police. The Chairman asked if the boy was a proper witness. He was aiding and abetting and had some of the fish. The Clerk replied that his evidence could be received. One of the defendants The boy said to us I won't say anything Bir; I am at this game every night with other boys." Witness: I didn't say that I am sure. Replying to the Chairman the boy admitted, after being pressed that he knew the fish were stolen. William Thomas Roach, fish merchant, Pin, described how he caught the prisoners at Hazelbeach. They were in a public house, and the fish were in a bag at their feet. The boy Barrett, who was with him identified the men, who told him that he could have the fish back. Eventually he gave them into the custody of P.C. Thomas. Mr Roach hoped the bench would not be too hard on the men as perhaps they would never commit a similar offence again. P.C. Thomas, Neyland, said he found the prisoners lying in some bushes near Llanstadwell vicarage. They admitted having stolen 40 mackerel, but said they offered to give back Mr Roach more fish than they had stolen. Prisoners, who admitted the offence, were, in consider- ation of the fact that they had been in custody for a week, sentenced to one day's imprisonment only. The boy Barrett was cautioned for receiving stolen fish, and warned that if repeated, the consequences would be very serious for him.
HAVERFORDWEST CRICKET1 CLUB.I…
HAVERFORDWEST CRICKET CLUB. ANNUAL MEETING. TO ENCOURAGE YOUTHFUL PLAYERS. The annual meeting of the Haverfordwest cricket club was held at the Mariners Hotel on Friday evening, when Mr A. H. Howard was voted to the chair. CLUB'S FINANCES. The balance sheet for the past year was read by the hon. secretary and {res surer, Mr F. A, Scott. This showed total receipts amounting to £ 39 16s 3d, and after the payment of all expenses there remained a credit balance of t2 2s, as against £ 2 17s 7d last year. This was regarded as extremely satisfactory, as the expenses had been heavy. Mr G. M. Phillips paid a tribute to Mr Scott for the efficient manner in which he had looked after the club's finances. It was due to the energy and assiduity of the hon. sec., he said, that the club's finances stood in such a favourable position. He proposed the adoption of the report. Mr A. M. P. Meares seconded, and the report was adonted. -rn- THE COMMITTEE. The following gentlemen were appointed on the com- mittee Messrs R. T. P. Williams, H. J. E. Price, H. T. James, A. H. aunLlers, H. B. Gwyther, A. M. P. Meares, W. E. Roberts, W. Roberts, Rev. J. Hensou, Rev. T. A. Harries, and Rev. Joel Davies. CAPTAIN AND VICE-CAPTAIN. The Chairman proposed that Mr Morgan be appointed captain for the ensuing year. Mr Morgan he described as a consistent cricketer and he had rendered useful services to the club. An one of the best tempered men in the club, he was sure Mr Morgan would handle the team most successfully. Mr Parry secouded, and the resolution was carried. On the motion of Mr G M. Phillips, Mr George Griffith was appointed vice-captain. THANKS TO THE SECRETARY. The Chiiirman proposed a. cordial vote of thanks to the hon. see. an 1 tre-i^urer for his excellent services during the past year, and for his services to the club geuerally. At the same time he asked Mr Ccott to kindly undertake the duties of hon. sec. and treasurer for the ensuing season. This was seconded by Mr G. M. Phillips, who said that Mr Scott bad been most energetic in tho work of placing the club on a sound footing financially. It was most gratifying to find that instead of there being a deficiency the club bad a balance in hand. Returning thanks, Mr Scott said he was glad to find that his services were appreciated by the players. He had great pleasure in again accepting the office for the ensuing season. (Applause). A vote of thanks was aho passed to the ladies who provided teas during the past season, coupled with the request that such kindly services be given during the forthcoming season. A GIFT. Mr Scott mentioned that a gentleman had offered the club a presoutation bat, and it was now decided that the offer be accepted with thanks, that it be given for the highest batting average, the winner to have played in at least two-thirds of the matches exclusive of friendly games." THE OPENING MATCH. It was arranged that the season should, weather per. mitting, open to-morrow (Thursday), with a match between captain and vice. The Hon. Secretary reported that a number of matches bad been arranged. On April 12th, there would be a match "Married v. single," and the matches with the following teams had been accepted —Roch's Milford II, day matches with the Welsh Regiment, Royal Engineers, Rosemarket, Williamston, Milford and Glyucorrig. A vote of thanks was passed to Dr. Greenish for his services and for his gift to the club of a bat and a pair of ALLEGED UNFAIR TREATMENT. Mr Meares brought up the question of the alleged unfair treatment of the younger members. These com- plained that they were not afforded sufficient opportun- ities for improving their batting. He suggested that something should be done to encourage the youthful members in the town. As it was, these younger members preferred having a friendly game amongst themselves with their own stumps. Don't you think," added Mr Meares, that we should do something to get these young players into the Haverfordwest Club. We could give them one or two evenings a week on which they would have the first call on the ground. It is a pity to have too many organisations. Sometimes we are short of help and we should be glad to get in some of the more promising youths." The Chairman said it struck him that the matter was entirely in the hands of these youthful players. Mr G. M. Phillips remarked that the way to learn to play cricket was to form friendly matches and all serve out After some further discussion the matter was left to the selection committee. LAST SEASON'S MATCHES. The Hon. Secretary reported that last year the Club arranged nineteen matches, two were scratched- Williamston and the Engineers, eleven were won, four lost, and two drawn. A vote of thanks was passed to Mr Merchant Phillips for having acted as umpire during the past season, and a similar vote was passed to Mr Howard for the excellent way in which he had handled the team as captain. Mr Merchant Phillips remarked that players should always accept the Captain's ruling with the best of grace. Mr Scott expressed the hope that Mr Morgan would prove a worthy successor to Mr Howard.

Football. THE CURTAIN FALLS. The football season of 1909-10 closed on Saturday at Milford Haven under disappointing circumstances. The last match was to have been with MaroY, but on Friday Milford received intimation that the match was off." It appears that the Milford Committee are in trouble with the Welsh Association owing to a linancial dispute in which Nantwich are concerned, the outcome of which is that Milford are a suspended Club until the dispute is settled, therefore Mardy were not permitted to fulfill their fixture. It was a, keen disappointment for many, as the game was fraught with importance, the two teams runn- ing close for second place in the South Wales League, Moreover it was a big ifnancial loss to Milford. The Welsh Association have meted out drastic treatment to the Robins this season and this is the crooning blow. We are not in a position to enter into the merits of the dispute, but it is hoped that the matter will soon be put right. PRIORY MISSION UNITED, 3; v. R.G. I ARTILLERY, nil. This postponed Pembrokeshire League match was played at Milford on Thursday evening- The League Tournament has finished with an element of doubt as to who are champions. Priory were hoping to secure the honour as a result of this match. The Soldiers arrived a man short and although not represented by their usual side, played up doggedly for a time. Harry Thomas cleverly seized an opening and Reeves made the mistake of running out of goal and was beaten. Continuing nicely Priory were much the better side and Hooper increased the lead with a shot along the ground just after, rain commenced, and increased with such force that the players were drenched and eventually had to seek shelter in the pavilion. When play was resumed the teams agreed to cross over, but again it rained mercilessly but the men stuck it out. Anything like football was now out of the question. To Leslie Evans fell the honour of scoring the last goal of a successful season for the Priory Club from a playing point of view. The players retired 1 in a saturated condition and were glad to hear the final whistle. Mr George Thomas was the referee.

GOLF. J I HAVERFORDWEST v. CARDIGAN. An interesting golf match between Haverfordwest and Cardigan was played on the Haverfordwest Raceconrse on Thursday.

IProvision for the Destitute.
Provision for the Destitute. "ALMOST INHUMAN." !NO COMMON LODGING HOUSE AT FISHGUARD. At Wednesday's meeting of the Haverfordwest Board of Guardians, Mr Vincent Johns leferred to the great number of unemployed who visited Fishguard. It was, he said, almost inhuman to thiuk that no provision had been made for these people, who, owing to their destitute condition, were compelled to sleep in the open air. He thought that in years gone by tickets were issued at Fishguard permitting these people to obtain shelter in a lodging house. No such provision now existed, and consequently they were arrested by the police and brought before the magistrates. Mr W. G. James (Pantyphilip) thought that some steps should be taken to cope with the result of increased unemployment. The clerk (Mr Rogers) mentioned that sometime ago vagrants were relieved and given lib of bread and a night's lodging at Fishguard. It was said that at present there was no registered common lodging house at Fishguard. Rev. Henry Evans thought the matter was one for the police and not for the guardians to deal with. If vagrants committed any breach of the law it was for the police to take action. I object," added Mr Evans, to the guardians taking action in this way. Vagrants are human beings certainly. I don't think you should encourage human beings not to be always human beings. (Laughter). Mr Johns said that these persons could not always be blamed for the condition in which they found themselves. After some further discussion, the Relieving Officer for the Fishguard district was directed to make enquiries as to the advisability of making some provisions.
