BANGOR POLICE COURT. 1
BANGOR POLICE COURT. 1 CHARGE OF CRUELTY TO A HOME. I I The weekly sessions were held on Tuesday, before Sir Henry Lewis (chairman), the Rev. W. Morgan (St. Ann's), Messrs J. Evan Roberta, R. J. Williams, Thomas Roberts, J. D. Williams, and J. E. Griffith. THE LIGHT THAT FAILED. I 1 T I 1 Jonn liugn Jones a-amitteci driving a motor car through High-street without a rear light, and failing to produce his licence. P.C. Roberts (.37) proved the case. The defendant said he had a light when lie left the railway station, and the wind must have blown it out. A fine of-M was imDosec1. ALLEGED CRUELTY -TO A HORSE. John Mountford, Garth, Bangor, was charged with causing. a horse to be worked in an unfit state, and Noah Jones, in his employ, was sum- moned for working the animal. Inspector Snelling, R.S.P.C.A., stated that he found the horse attached to a lurry, containing 32cwts. of coal, in Carnarvon-road. It was suffer- ing from spavin, the leg being sensitive and in- flarhed. Mr Luther Jones, veterinary surgeon, Menai Bridge, said- the horse was totally unfit for any work. The animal was not incurable. The Magistrates' Clerk (Mr H. C. Vincent): What the Act contemplates is intentional, wicked cruelty. Mr Luther Jones: I do not say it ia inten- fonal iu this case. Mr Mountford gave evidence that he acquired, with a coal merchant's business, this horse. At that time lie noticed that the animal had a limp, which improved after walking a little. It usually worked in a lurry, and was the leader. The horse was examined by a veterinary surgeon, who stated that it was suitable for farm work. Defendant knew nothing about horses. John Jones, Mount-street, carter in the employ of Mr Mountford, said the horse was bought slightly lame, and was now just the same as it was two years ago. The Inspector had never previously stopped the animal. Mr Horation Jones, for the defence, denied there was that wanton and wilful cruelty con- templated by the Act. The Chairman said the Bench agreed there was no intentional cruelty, and they dismissed the rase on payment of costs, including the fee of thA vererinarv sniTPnn. "FOR OLD FRIENDSHIP'S SAKE." Private John Steward. Bangor, denied a charge of being drunk at Bethesda. Sergeant Evans stated that the defendant had been visiting public- houses in Bethesda, and becoming disorderly he was locked up after some difficulty. The Defendant complained that whenever he came to Bangor "the police were on top of him." He had leave until February 17th. The Chairman Wcli, Steward, we arc all glad to see you back again. In outward appearance you are quite a new man, but. you are beginning on your old game again. For old friendship's sake, we will let you off again, but don't get into trouble before the 17th. Steward (sharply clicking his heels): Thank you, Mr Chairman, and all your worships (laugh- terl. YOUTHFUL OFFENDERS. two boys, respectively aged 12 and 13 years, were charged with stealing íád from a shop in Dean-street, kept by Amelia Jones. Both boys pleaded guilty. One of them said they went into the shop for toffee, and seeing the money behind the counter, they took it. There were three con- victions against one of the boys, who was ordered to be placed under a Probation Officer for twelve months, and the other boy was treated as a tirst offender, and bound over.
A MOTORISFS CHEQUE.
A MOTORISFS CHEQUE. JUDGE S DECISION IN A BETTWSYCOED ACTION. At Lianrwst County Court., on Friday, before Judge Moss Mr T. P. Op-born Yale, managing director of the Bettwsycoed Garage Company, sued Thomas Lloyd Jones, managing director of Messrs T. Jones and Co., of Liverpool, for B5 11s 6d, the value of a Dunlop outer cover, alleged to have been sold him in 1914. Mr J. D. Jones, who appeared for the plaintiff, said it appeared that in October, 1914, the de- fendant drove to the plaintiff's garage with a punctured tyre. He saw Mr Downes, who acted as the defendant's manager, and two other em- ployees. Mr Downes had' since joined the Im- perial forces, but the other men, who were no longer in the employ of defendant, wonJJ swear that the defendant was supplied with both a Dun- lop outer cover and an inner tube. In the corr- pondence between the plaintiff and the defendant, the latter referred to the goods at issue as sup- plies," which illdicatpd more than one article. In his last letter, however, he denied having pur- chased the outer cover, and that lie had paid for the inner tube. It was true the defendant had paid for the tube, but the larger sum due for the outer cover lemained unpaid. Mr T. P. Osborn YaJe, the plainfciif, said he knew the defendant well, and had done business with him on several occasions. A certain amount of irregularity had occurred at the office owing to the departure of the manager to join the army. Li the ordinary way, witness did not end out accounts, that duty being entrusted to the man- ager, but on this occasion, being short handed, he personally attended to the clerical depa rtmen t. In October, 1914, a man named J. Lloyd Jones was in his service, and it was his custom to take notes of everything sold. One of these notes witness found on his desk, and it recorded that the defendant had purchased the goods referred to. At the time he was under the impression that the defendant was indebted to the firm for the full amount of Jb5 15s 9d, but on further investi- gation he found that the defendant had paid £1 4s 3d by cheqtie for the inner tube. In reply to Mr D. Thomas (for the defendant), witness said he had always found the defendant straightforward in business. J. Lloyd JotiC3 spoke to supplying the defen- dant with the goods. He did not know why he had entered on his note that the tube was sup- plied on October 6th and the cover on October 20th, unless lie committed the mistake when en- tering the transaction on the note left on the plaintiff's desk from his private note-book; but he was certain both articles were supplied on October 6th. John Griffith, another former employee in the service of the plaintiff, offered corroborative evi- dence. The Defendant said he remembered visiting the plaintiff's garage on Saturday, October 3rd, 1914, when he purchased and paid for an inner tube for his motor wheel, his own tube having been badly punctured, but he was quite certain lie did not buy an outer cover. He left the following week for Montgomery, where he purchased an outer cover to re-place one that had been worn out. He paid for the tube by means of a cheque. The Judge: Have you the cheque in court? It is important, because of the date. Mr Thomas: Xo, but we can produce it, if necessary. After some argument between the advocates, his Honour said it was necessary that lie should see the cheque bafore he gave judgment.
AN ANGLESEY LAND DISPUTE.
AN ANGLESEY LAND DISPUTE. DAMAGES CLAIMED FOR ALLEGED TRESPASS. At Holyhead County Court, on Tuesday week, his Honour Judge Moss gave judgment in a case in which Mr W. P. Williams, Caeronnen, Bangor, and Mr John Hnte, Hendrefawr, Newborough, claimed damages for alleged trespass against Mr Hugh Roberta. Treherbert. Mr Harold Evans (Bangor), for plaintiffs, 6aid Mr Williams was the owner of a tenement at Newborough called 'Hallt Gwta, which had been in his family for many generations, and Mr Hugho« was his tenant. The defendant's family had been tenants of the place for a great many years, and in the time of defcndallt." s grand- father an encroachment was made on the adjoin- ing waste land, anrl the piece of land enclosed had been occupied with 'Ral!t Gwta ever since. In June last the defendant pulled down some wire fencing, alleging that the enclosed plot never had formed part of 'Rallt Gwta, and had, been devised to his sister, Mrs Jane Jones, by the will of her mother. Mr Richard Roberts, for the defendant, sub- mitted that the land in question had been parish land, and had been enclosed by a person un- connected with either the plaintiff's or defendant'* family. and that he had let it to defendant's grandfather. The latter had not paid rent for it for a great many years, and had thus become the owner of it. His Honour held that t.Jre¡'e had been an enclosure by defendant's grandfather, who was at the time tenant of 'Rallt Gwta. and that where a tenant encloses on the adjoining waste the enclosure ultimately becomes the property of the landlord. Judgment was givcii for the plaintiffs for P,2 aiid costs. 1-- ——

MANCHESTER SHIP CANAL. I
MANCHESTER SHIP CANAL. I FIRST DIVIDEND. I For the. firet time in its history ae a working concern the Manchester Ship Canal Company is paying a dividend on its preference and ordinary shares. Moreover, the rate is higher than the expectation. Recently expressed hopes did not venture beyond 1 per cent, on the preference and 5 per cent, on the ordinary shares, but the di- rectors are happily able to recommend payment at the rate of 11 and i per cent, respectively, as well as the full 3A per cent, on the Corporation's preference share*. The latter payment consti- tutes a "record" also, for up to now the 24 per cent. paid for 1913 has been tho only dividend paid on the pro-preference sharee. The distribution on the preference and ordin- ary shares requires £ 90.000 and that on the pro- I preference ftharra £ 37,1-3, representing a total surplus of £ 127,143 after meeting debenture in- terest and the £ 160.000 interest on the Corpora- tion loan. The directors have, in addition, placed B15,0.30 to reserve for contingencies and repairs, and tfiere remains finally E-7,815 to be carried for- ward. The report which is to foUow diould dic- clo-,(, interesting facts as to the year's working. The December traffio receipts brought the year's total to £760,055, an increase of 1;103,818, upon which figures the ho-pee of a dividend were main- ly based. The canal tolls have been raised twice during the year, but the advance in November is too recent to have had much effect on the re- ceipts. The carry-forward is, of conr-e. small in comparison with the £ 29,7&0 brought into the accounts, but that fact need not minimise the satisfaction of the shareholders or the commercial importance of the event.

LONDON c- NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY…
LONDON c- NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. 6 PER CENT. FOR THE YEAR. The most important home railway dividend, that of the North-Western Company, i3 quite satisfactory, for while the distribution ie main- tained at 6 per cent. for the year (to which it was lowered a year ago from 7 per cent.), £ 65.000 more is carried forward, and the appro- priation to reserve is ;62M,COD, against ;ciw,.ooo. To pay 1 per cent. on the stock requires £ 429,000, fco that the Board could easily have paid i per cent. more, though this was scarcely worth while. The 7 per cent. pa.id for 1913 was the highest) dividend on North-Western in the last sixteen years, in which period it has varied at from that Jigure down to 51 per cent. The stock was on Friday quoted 102j, which includes roughly, Jb3 I ric'i' tt d e. i-oii g ii l 1;3 of dividend (allowing for tax deduction), and [ consequently the return to a purchaser i« just 6 per cent.. In the cheap money period of the nineties it wa. considered good enough to buy North-W est era Oil about a 32 1 per cent, basis.
CAMBRIAN RAILWAYS.
CAMBRIAN RAILWAYS. The accounts for 1915 provide for the payment 1 of the full intc>rctsfc of 4 per cent, OIl t.ho D debenture stock £10,000 liae been added to the general reserve fund and Lll,372 is carried for- ward, as compared with L15,054 in 1914, when a similar payment was made on the D debenture stock and a similar appropriation was made to re- serves. • The Daily Dispatch, commenting on. this highly satisfactory report, says:—"This Com- pany luts had a hard struggle, and iboitt ten years ago the earning* fell off considerably. At +he end of 1008 the interest on the 'D' de- benture got into amar, and the stock dropped to 35. A small payment was made in 1910, from which time—with one interval —the position has steadily improved. The Company has now paid fnc flLtt dividend for two running, and with its augmented re- servee may pr?bab!y be able to continue pay- mcnt? without a break. The line is a useful link to the 'heavkV serving the district, and may one day be absorbed into their system. Recently the .stock has changed hands nt 40. at which the yield is just over 8 per cent. We should not be surprised to &ee a 10 point risse in the quotation."

BETHESDA URBAN | COUNCIL.
BETHESDA URBAN | COUNCIL. PUBLIC LIGHTING RESTRICTIONS. j Mr David Llewelyn (chairman) presided at the monthly meeting of the Bethesda Urban Coun- cil, on Friday evening, when the following mem- bers were present ;MesH6 D. Pernant Evans, John Roberts, R. Benjamin Evans R. 0. Wil- liams, William Johes, Jeremiah Thomas, Evan Evans, John Hughes, Ellis Owen, Dr. W. G. Pritchard, together with the Clerk (Mr D. Grif- tith Davies) and Surveyor (Mr Hugh H. Davies). The Gas and Water Committee recommended the purchased of a new set of rods for cleaning the water and sewerage pipes. The Surveyor, in reply to questions, said that the rods were lent to ratepayers. Mr J. Thomas said that the rods would not be required until June, and the matter of pur- chasing new ones could be deferred until then. He would, at that time, propose that they be not lent to people who knew not how to use them, and thereby damaged them, but a Council em- ployee be in charge of the rods, and a reasonable hiring fee charged for same. The recommendation was deferred until June. A DEFECTIVE GAS METER. t The Gas Committee reported that the slot meter at a. house in Racliub recorded gas as having been u^ed in excess of the amount col- lected in the till. The committee recommended that the average for the three previous years be compared, and the parties be charged the aver- age per quarter. Mr R. B. Evans: My view of the law is to compare the corresponding quarter of the previous year, and not take an average on a three year basis. On the motion of Mr R. B. Evans, seconded by Mr R. (J. Williams, it was decided to charge the sum of fifteen.shillings as being the average and the value of the gas consumed. NOTIFICATION FEES. I It was decided, on the recommendation of the Highway and Finance Committees, to write to the Local Government Board urging that the fee of 2s 6d payable to doctors for notifying measles and German measles should bo reduced to one shilling, as they considered 2s 6d an exorbitant fee. BILLETING OF TROOPS. I Application having been made by the Council to have troops billeted at Bethesda. during the winter months, it was reported that the military authorities had written stating that at present the likelihood of any troops being located at Bethesda was exceedingly remote, but a note would be made of the desire of the inhabitants to have troops billeted on them. • WELFARE OF WELSH SOLDIERS. I A letter was read from Brigadier-General Owen Thomas explaining the Welsh national scheme for safeguarding the interests of Welsh soldiers and sailors and their dependents during and after the war. On the motion of Dr. Pritehard, seconded by Mr D. Pernant Evans, it was unanimously de- cided to give the Council's whole-hearted support to General Owen Thomas' scheme. Mr Jeremiah Thomas remarked that this move- ment by General Owen Thomas was the most manly yet initiated. MILITARY TRIBUNAL. r, I I I It. was decided to III crease tile meirioers (II tile local tribunal to include the old members as fol- lows to form the new Military Tribunal: -Messrs R. Benjamin Evans, John Jones, J.P., W. J. Parry, H. O. Williams, Jeremiah Thomas, with Messrs David Llewelyn and David Davies, 1, Penvbryn, as new members. RECRUITING CANVASS. A letter was read from Mr Isaac Edwards, secretary of the County Recruiting Committee, asking the Council to make another canvass of eligible men before the coming into operation of .th<* Military Service Act. Mr R. B. Evans: I propose that we tell .them we are not going to make another canvass. This was seconded by Mr Jeremiah Thomas, and carried. llr S I PUBLIC LIGHTING RESTRICTIONS. The Chairman stated that several complaints had been made to him that too much light was exhibited in and around the neighbourhood ,when the lighting restrictions were so rigid. He said that they as a Council were being condemned for not extinguishing the lights from an economical point of view. Mr E. Evans: I was in Liverpool recently, and if a. city of that- size can manage with so few lights, we certainly ought to do with less. Dr. Pritchard imid he felt that great responsi- bility rested with the Council in this matter.' Many complaints were being made of the lights exhibited there. Mr Ellis Owen: If a stranger came here with the 9.30 p.m. train, and the streets were un- lighted, he could never find his way about. I have heard that this proposition, not to light the neighbourhood, originated from a local ladies' society. By five votes to four against, the Council de- cided not to light, the lamps hereafter. A motion by Dr. Pritehard asking the various Churches and chapels to commence their services earlier, found no seconder.

I PROVISIONING SOLDIERS. I
I PROVISIONING SOLDIERS. I NEW DEPARTURE IN WELSH DIVISION. r APPLICATION OF CO-OPERATIVE I PRINCIPLE. A special cont,ributor to the Co-operative News points out what could be done by adjust- ing the co-operative system to the feeding of British soldiers now encamped in all parte of the Kingdom. A new departure hag been made in connection with an Army division, the 68th (N\ eleh) Division, numbering1 about- 12,000 men. Probably not satisfied with the ordinary provisioning of this large body of men, the aid of the Agricultural Organisation Society wassollght, with regard to supplies of fruit and vegetables. This society, having for its main object the organisation of farmers and smallholders into co-operative lSoci- eties, took up the matter, believing that the co- operative principle could be applied to providing the men with the named foodstuffs. Previously (M in all regiments) quartermaeters had been competing one against another in the purchasing of food for their respective units. The scheme was put iuto operation in all tho units comprising the division (by the notice of Major-General Sandbaeh) on December 18th, 1915. For tke purpose a store and office were acquired by the division near the Midland Railway goods station in Bedford. From this centre the sup- plies are issued to the units each Friday. The distributing store i-; In. charge of Captain E. S. Williams-Ellis, the Purchasing Department Offic- er. The system provides that each unit sends in an indent every Friday for the supplies to be drawn on the follow i ng Friday. Tins enables the dis- tributors to know at once the bulk that will be 'I h needed by the various unites. The growers, or farmers, or agricultural co-operutive societies, ectid in, eacal Friday, lists of the quantities they are in a position to supply. From the-.e lists Captain Wiiliams-Elli.> knows at once the quan- tities available; the prices being satisfactory, the orders arc immediately placed. A check Ollt all issues is properly provided 'for. Tho brigade transport is placed at the disposal of the depart- ment two afternoons a week to help to removo the good s from the .railway depot, and thua avoid demuirage. Concerning the supply of the articles to the units, each unit is responsible for its own transport arrangements. The plan works smooth- ly. Generally, it consists in the unit tran-porte drawing aheir etiipplie-s daily from the station yard; whilst HIllS engaged they pick up their allotted vegetables from the divisional store. Th i« forms part- of their morning's work. I It may be said that for the week ending Janu- ary 7th at leatsl 80 per cent, of the produce issued was obtained from local growers. Expenses of the scheme are met by the actual cost price of produce charged to the units, plus 2j percent, to cover management or other charges. The new system (says the Co-oPcrative Neivs) reduces co^t of food, improves the quality sup- ports local industry, and make" "unnecessary any competition between the quartermasters of the tinits, which competition had been a factor in helping to send up market, quotations! Farmers also can afford to sell at lower prices, and make more satisfactory profit, because the schema avoids the intervention of middlemen; it brings pr0dueer and consumep into direct touch. Be- sides preventing unconscious competition .among the quartermasters the scheme saves their tima for other work, and prevents over-lapping. The net saving in expenditure in each unit is large; this enables the quartermasters to spend mdlte I money on luxuries.
ISMARTING PILES CURED.I
SMARTING PILES CURED. I FARMER'S WIFE AND UNIQUE I POWER. Further convincing proof of Zaiii-li,Lik'.s grcat soothing and healing power is furnished by Mrs A. L. Burbage, of Taylor's Farm, Burton Green, near Chsistchuroh, Bournemouth. "I suffered terribly from itching, burning piles, said Mrs Burbage to a "Bournemouth reporter. "Ihev were £ 0 bad that I was away from work at the oairy about two and for a fortnight I had to stay in bed. Sleep was impossible, and the constant ir- ritation fairly wore illf, out. Having found Zam-Buk very useful for pain- ful cuts and bruiser, I now tried the balm for my piles. A few applications of soothing Zaiu-Buk convinced me that I had found the right remedy at last, for this her bid balm allayed the torturing pain. A6 1 kept up the treatment., the smarting piles went awav. I have been quite free from t-his distressing complaint for some time. "This is not the only time I have used Znm- Buk. Living opposite th« village school, 1 often have children brought to me when they hurt t1wlll,t'h-es. One little boy, when playing on the village green, w-ais out on the hiead by a slate. Zam-Buk quickly healed the place. A nurse ho saw the boy remarked how .splendidly the broken skin had knitted together. "A young woman fractured her leg in a cycle accident. Although treated by a doctor the limb, after being set, would not heal properly. I ad- vised her to u-:c Zam-Buk. Whilst treating her leg with Zam-Buk, some inplinters of loo.e bone that had prevented the wound hM)!n? came away on the bandaa?e?. The pjaoe was then quickly healed up by Zam-Buk. "In many other cases I have recommended Zam-Buk. and always with the be>i of results." B'e sure you get Zam-Buk. of imitations and u«elei.s substitutes.
