RAQUI BRIDGE. ---------- Police Swore That Two Automobiles Went Over Bridge At Rate of Twenty Miles An Hour. The police are out with a big stick after the owners of automobiles who exceed the speed limit going over Cataraqui bridge. Several fines were imposed at the Police Court on Thursday morning as the result of a visit Constables Samuel Arniel and James Mills paid to the bridge last Friday afternoon. Constable Arniel had his little stop watch with him, and as a car came along at what he j considered a pretty brisk rate, Con- stable Mills gave Constable Aruiel, who was stationed some distance away, the signal/dnd the time was kept. It was found that a couple of the cars made a speed over the bridge of twenty miles an hour, and in bath cases the Magistrate imposed a fine of $10 and costs. Some of the of- fenders stated they were not running the cars at the time, but the Magis- | trate pointed out that in each case {the owner was responsible. The speed of the cars showed all the way from fifteen to twenty miles an hour, while the by-law states that {miles an hour is the limit. Some pleaded gwfity, while others did not, and the evidence was taken. The | cases were disposed of as follows: - William H. Penwarden, $5 and costs; .dercy Ward, $3 and costs; Percy Chown, $5 and costs; John Lemmon, $10 and costs; Joseph Sin- | nott, $10 and costs; W. H. William- son, $3 and costs; Finkle & Co., $3 and costs; Gilmour McBroom (for exceeding thé limit and driving with- out license), $3 and costs en each charge. Dr. G. W. Bell was charged with exceeding the limit, but explained he was not the owner of the car, and the case was enlarged for a week. The price of everything is going up these days. Even police court fines are getting higher This is what Isaac Metcalfe thought when the Ma- | { gistrate imposed a fine of $2 and costs for driving on the wrong side of | the street when turning a corner. { "Some have only been fined $1 and costs for that," said Metcalfe. { "I know, but the price has gone { up," remarked the Magistrate with a smile. Napoleon Newell is on the "prohib- i ited list," but by all accounts he has been handling a great deal of the "strong stuff" the past few days. He {admitted being under the influence, {and when asked by the Magistrate (where he had secured the liquor, he {said that he met a man named | George Nelson, a friend with whom he had worked in a lead mine. George must have been a good friend all tright, for he bought a Wottle of li- i quor and the two emptied it. Then | Nelson bought another bottle, gave | it to Newell, bade him good-bye, say- {ing he was going to Barriefield Camp | to enlist for the front. | Newell could not locate Nelson, | however, and as he could not give all | the information desired by the Court {he was sent to jail to think it an over. { H. MeMillan admitted being drunk, {and was fined $3 and costs or one | month. | John Howard, a young man, was | charged with skipping out of the city {and leaving a board dill unpaid. He promised to pay up, and the case was enlarged for a day in order to give him time to make a settlement. RED CROSS WORK. | What the Society Has Done Since | War Began. The British Red Cross, early in { its work, established six hospitals in | France immediately around Boulogne i | The | {and three in and near Calais. voluntary hospitals offered to the | French by British donors were in- |spected and supervised.
