A large number of Cburahpeopla assembled at the Board Sohoolroom umler the presidency of Mr. Samuel Jones, Glanrtinorwie, and a oarefully-propsred programme of entertainment was gone through as a preliminary to the presentation. Tho Chairman, iu hia opening address, gave a ooooiae history of the, the Ohuroh in the district aud the very great success which had at'ended the labours of both-minister and people during the last years.

They firai started to hold a Sunday Sohool in the Board Schoolroom with only half a rioz-n comniuuieants, and within twelve months they h-id the satisfaction of seeing a beautiful mission church erected, whioh shortly after was fitted with a warming apparatus, the whole expense being upwards of eighteen hundred pounds. Mr Owen Lewii in presenting tha address in the name of the congregation gSTe a statement of the present strength of tbe Church whioh was very encouraging and satisfactory, and he also said that sixty children had been baptised in the churoh from the tima it waa opened for divine aarvioa eight years ago. Mr Trevor Hughes, Glasooed, also sddressed the meeting and ottered encouraging words, and exhorted tha laymen, both young and eld. to work heartily for the o.ansa in the future as they had done in tho pant. It should be stated that Mr Trevor Huahea has taken great interest in the ohuroh, not only by his pecuniary aaaistanoe when naoassary, bnt'by taking au active part in the spiritual work of the Church, for whioh purpose the late biehoo licensed him to tha office of lay-reader in the distriot.

Consecration oif a Owuroh. On Monday a uew Welsh ohurch, dedioatad to St. David, and reoently ereoted at Wrexham, w3 o'onseorated by the Bishop of St. Asaph, who, in the oourse of his sermon, urged all people to make- the best useB of their resouroea. It was uaeloaa to Righ for an impossible future or to brood over an irreparable past.

Lost opportunities had their bo doubt, and ought to stimulate them to better efforts, but theira wuld be a double loss if the-y wasted thought and power in yearning for the irrevocable past and in contemplating what might have been, As to the work of the Ohurch, it was a very erroneous view to tike that it wa3 chiefly coafipod to tbe work of Sunday. All that helped' to makefile socianifc of the people strong and wholesome was the Church's concern. It was the doty of the Church to provide for the religious and moral'welfare of the young, but it was also ita duty to attend to alt that wm likelv to conduce to their happiness in 'the way of providing healthy and irnoosnt reoreatiOB-for them.

PETTY: SESSION'S. sessions were, held son Friday, before Dr. Nicol (in the ohair), Dr. Daltrjn, and Mc-Elias Jones. The Pickpocket Nuisance.

Some of the light-fingered gentry have been paying Llandudno a visit. About a tortnight ago eight empty purses were found in a wateroloset at the pierhead, they having evidently been from passengers on the steamboats, as soma tickets and other artioles of no value lead to their identification subsequently. On tha 17ih July a boatman named Edward Hughes eaw a man put his hand twice in a lady's pocket on the Parade, and Hughes at onoe collared the fellow and managed to hold him until assistance arrived. The man made violent attempts to get away, bat Sergeant Rowland was soon on the spnt, and looked the delinqumit up. On Friday prisoner gave the' cam of James Stillivau, but ha had several aliases including Joseph Shields, Robert Singleton, He was charged on Friday witb attempting to pick pockets.

Superintendent Williams prosecuted and-Mr R. S. Chamberlain to the evidence of the boatman (Hughes) tbe prisoner wished to be aearohed, and when that was done after bia arrest no parse was found on him.but nearly 6 in oash. A. Mrs Williams, of Portdinorwio; stated she was in Llandudno that day, and-about the time-referred to missed her she swore that the prisoner waa near her at the time.

There was a woman near the prisoner at the time, and they were making signs to each other. In tbe result the Bench decided that there waa not sufficient evidence to commit the man of pocket picking, -Superintendent Williams then ptoceeded with the second oharge against the prisoner of being a rogue and vagaband, aud frequenting plaoea for an unlawful purpose. On this he was oonvicted and sentenced to three months' hard labour, Superintendent Williams having prodaoed a list of fifteen previous convictions for picking The prisoner's wife waa in oourt, anil applied for an order for tbe money found on him to be delivered to her, and this was done. THE TRIPPER QUESTION. Sib, Opinions are oft-times expresssd as to the folly of Bome people seeking relaxation abroad when there is such varied and beautiful' scenery, to be foun.d nearer Jiome.

Cau it be wondered at, however, if well-to-do folk go where the natives more pleasant- manrfers? One element of success care to ba the making of a -place like Llandudr.o ia quiet, but the noisy brawling of an unlimited number of "trippers" is sure to spoil this favourite resort. I have known those who made up their minds to take their families to such places as Scarboro' or Blackpool, now so persistently swamped by trippers, but soon found out their mistake, and fled from a spot where the exouraionist is so strongly in possession of the field. Under the auspices of a big railway company those who oan think only of their dividends are glad to remain and to care nothing about the havoc made wilhont. stint or stay at every charming spot in the Kingdom so long bb dividends are kept up to the mark. Tbe writer of a- letter signed A Fortiori in voar last issue tints on bis amazement, and I should aay he knows little about the objectionable behaviour of soma of these trippers.

If he and those belonging to his oooial circle pos- aeas much aelf-raspeot there abould be more hesitation about taking up the ouagela on behalf of mere rowdyism. i It is scareely worth while to notice this oorre-spsindent's aneer about the doctor and his confederates snoh personalities can we)! be paBSftd over with contemptuous indifference by a gentleman like tbe dootor, who so recently received overwhelming proof ot the esteem and confidence in whioh he ia held by the ratepayers, Here! may Btop at the trippers tp Bay that I for one have do objection to any reasonable quantity biog brought here so long as thoy (the trippers) conduct themselves rationally.
