HORFIELD RATEPAYERS' ASSOCIATION. Sir In your report of tho Sanitary Committee's meeting in to-dny's issue, it would appear that several petitions were read with regard to the tramways nnd paving questions. My association forwarded a petition, but from whom the others were 1 do not know.1 The chairman is reported as saying, They (the committee) had done all they could, and they (meaning the district) would have had wood paving but for associations like this, who hampered the committee and forced them to close with the company." Prom this remark the only inference to bo gathered is that my association so hampered the Sanitary Committee that they were bound to give way to the Tramways Company over tho recent controversy, nnd I at once hasten to most emphatically disclaim any such course of action on my association's part. When the tramways question was before the public it was a matter considered by us in committee, who felt strongly, having regard to the negotiations then pending, that it was notadvisable to express opinions one way or the other, and at a general meeting held on the 11th February my association passed the following resolution That this meeting most heartily welcomes tho proposed tramways extension in -tliis district and tho use of electric traction, and "nrties will do all in their power to arrive vi settlement of tho question." A copy 0 1 iv-WUon was forwarded to the city authorities and also 0 fhe tramway authorities. That the improvement for, a reasonable one is borne out by the statt-iM the Authority Engineer, and I have no doubt but business like spirit in which the matter was hy Ilr S.
Lloyd and Mr J. Boyd and other inemi.vrs Ot the Committee will ultimately prevail. Yours truly, Edwin Watts, Hon. Secretary. 1iEB 263 1iEB Midland detorr'd Nuath Sc preferred 122 124 112 preferred.

Involving, as it necessarily must if successfully carried out, tho settlement of international disputes by peaceful arbitration in substitution for tho terrible alternative of war which never in any way alters the rights or wrongs of the dispute it does ini'mite credit 0 the ruler of a great nation.
The declaration of tho Tsar that it is thfi supreme duty of all States to concentrate their ell'orts on securing the triumph of tho grand idea of universal peace over the elements of trouble and discord and that he is "convinced that this high aim agrees with the most essential interests nnd legitimate requirements of- all the Powers" allbrds to the British Government a unique opportunity to make a genuine and earnest attempt to como to some agreement with Russia, and the other Powers interested, for the preservation of the integrity of the Chinese Empire, and for securing to all nations equal rights to participate in the opening up and development and in the future trado of that Empire. To make it practicable to carry out the proposals of the Tsar, it is essential that tho political and commercial policy pursued by the various nations entering tho conference shall be on just and equitable lines. This would involve the abandonment on the part of each nation of any preferential rights it may have recently obtained in China. With regard to Russia, the fact must not be overlooked that, whilst a substantial reduction in the strength of her standing Army might be made, the striking power of her remaining forces will be multiplied iu the near future by the completion of her military and strategic railways. This applies not only to Northern China, but also to our Indian Empire, if tbe rumours are true that sho is not only extending her railway system close to the gates of Herat, but is also contemplating tho construction of railways through Asia Minor and Persia.
The relative strength of Russia, therefore, as a military power compared with this country will be in a very few years still greater than it now is without her contravening any agreement that may be come to as to disarmament. The use of railways as an instrument of war is well illustrated by tho statement of one of our generals that on a military line in India one train did with comparative ease in 1G hours what it would have taken 2500 camels a fortnight to accomplish. In the pursuance of such a preliminary policy as I have indicated her Majesty's Government would have a united nation at their back, and would clear the ground of some of the dilliculties which might prevent their giving the fullest and most generous support to the beneficent proposals of tho Tsar for the maintenance of universal peace by international agreement. 1 am, sir, your obedient servant, Walton.

DISASTER AT SEVERN BRIDGE. A trow belonging to Mr Field, of Framiiode, near Gloucester, was proceeding up the Severn toward Gloucester loaded with stone yesterday morning between o'clock, and on reaoning tho Severn bridge knocked against it, splitting her iu two, The only man on board was the captain, Samuel Buck, an old man, of Framilode, who was drowned, It appears that two men were rowing in a little boat, which was pulling the trow along, wben all at once they heard a crash, and on turning round saw that the trow was split in two and the captain gone. Some of tbe fishermen belonging to Gatcombe, near Severn bridge, launched boats and went out to help the others in their search for the body, but it was all in vain. One part of the ship floated a good distance np the river, but the other part stopped within 300 yards of the bridge. nvH f.ld..

Fortunately more propitious weather was experienced by the promoters of the-1898 Harvest Home than proved to bo tho case in regard to the yonture of the preceding year, with the result that the gathering held on Thursday was attended by a record' decree oi success.

At the Brewster Sessiou yesterday, the usual renewals having been granted, the Magistrates' Clerk read the annual report of tho Superintendent of tho PoMcc (Supt.
Balkwill), which There are 26 fully-licensed houses, 19 beerhouses (4 of which are oll'licenses), 10 houses licensed to retail beer in bottle, and 8 sweet and wine licenses, making a total of 63 licensed houses, One licensed person lias been proceeded against forpcnnittiug drunkenness; two persons have been convicted for drunkenness or disorderly conduct on licensed premises. The total convictions arc 79 males and 13 females, and after deducting the 42 males and 8 females who arc referred to as non-rcsidonts, it will readily be seen that only 23 males and 5 females of the resident population (estimated at 20,000) have been convicted, and this is, so far as -the residents aro concerned, a decrease in the number of convictions as compared with last year." Mr Mullins observed that the Bonch requested him to state that they were pleased to receive such a satisfactory report from the superintendent, and to llnd therefrom that the business 'of the liccused victuallers had been carried on in such an orderly and respectable manner. Mr J.L. Dickinson, on behalf of Messrs Lipfon and Co-applied for a license (grocer's) for the sale oi wines and spirits, The Bench granted tho license Mr B. R.
Vachell (barristor-at-law), on behalf Messrs George and ot the Belle Vue Restaurant, applied for a full license respect of the company's premises in High street. Mr Brice, on behalf ot the licensed victuallers, opposed tho application. Mr Vachell stated that he applied on bclialt of Mr Thomas Burt Woodard, the present manager, and a director of Georgo and Limited, for a mil license. At tho present time Mr Woodard held a temporary license for the sale of wine, beer, and cider to bo consumed on and off the premises, but held no license for the sale of spirits. There was no intention on behalf of tho proprietors, he said to erect a bar upon the premises, and hn was prepared to say that the premises should be closed at 10 p.m.
ana also that mo -prcimaos should bo closed on Sunday. Mr Vachell, in conclusion, put in ainemorial in support of the application winch had been signed by upwards of 100 persons. Mr Bnce said he case had been made out, and in his opinion it would be unfair to grant tho full license, seeing tho number Ol tully-licenscd houses within a vory short distance tram the promises. Ho also failed to see that Messrs Georgo Go. would add to the stability or respectability of their establishment by obtaining a license for spirits.
The Bench then retired to consider their decision, and upon returning into court Mr Mullins said that the license would bo granted upon conditions that it; be a six days license; that the cstablislunentshould be closed at 10 p.m., and that no bar be erected.

Mr Bevir appeared on behalf of the Brewery Company and Mr Tetlcy (Bath) represented the Rev Strong, rector of the parish, and a. number of residents who objected' to the Broivery Company's proposal. It was contended by Mr -'Crli Swell (Frome), on behalf of two license holders, that licensed premises wore needed in the neighbourhood, which was a growing one, but the objectors urged' time if-was -already well that a publichouse would tond to depreciate the value of property in the district. After a lengthy hearing, the Bench decided not to- grant a license, Henry Pcavco, of the Brewery Arms, Langley Burr-ell, also applied to the Bench to increase tho'licensc of tho house from that of a beerhouse to fully licensed premises. The Bench, after consideration, said they saw no reason why they should extend the license, DEAN FOREST.

There aro certain foods which wise people eschew at certain times, because-they are not good out of season. Such are pork and oysters. But overy day has its feeding seasons which it is also wise to observe, espeoialiy for children, Do not feed your toby at any odd times haphazard. Above all, be sure that its food is light and nutritions. The lightest arid most nutritious of all children's foods is Honr.icx's Malted Milk, It always cures indigestion and never produces it.
It removes the causes of aiairhiea and convulsions. It builds up bone, brain, and nerve. No added milk is required and no cooking. It is the easiest of all foods to prepare and tho most economical in use. Try it and prove what wo say.
