HALLIDAY ELECTRIC CO. THE DAILY BR - tm -- DRANK. ODT OF BOTTLE IN AN ALLEYWAY Tippler Was Asked to Have a Drink and Could Not . Refuse the Offer. People who happen to get a drop or so too much of liguor and land ir the police nets find that the On- tario Temperance Act pinches very hard. For instance a young man who was placed under arrest for be- ing intoxicated on Sunday, was on Wednesday morning in the police court given three months in jail, or until such time as he will disclose where he secured his liquor. The accused pleaded guilty to be- ing intoxicated, but stated that he did not know the name of a man who gave him a drink out of a bot- tle. Saturday night he had been drinking near beer in a Princess street hotel. About closing up time he started for home but on Princess street he met a couple of men. They were strangers and he was quite sur- prised when one fellow calied out to him: "Hey there! would you like a drink?" "Well, now, can a duck swim?" said the thirsty one to him- self. He accepted the kind hospita- lity extended to him. The fellow with the bottle led the way to a near by alleyway, and the accused hal two good drinks out of the bottle. After thanking the man who had the bottle, he then started for home, but "from that time on he declared that his mind was a blank, but he had been told that he spent the night at the home of a friend. He was plac- ed under arrest early on Sunday mor- ning shortly after leaving the home of his friend. Magistrate Farrell pressed the assuced for all the particulars re- garding how he secured the liquor, stating that it looked and appeared strange for the accused to be stopped by two strangers and given liquor in the way he had explained. "People don't stop me in that way when I go down the street," remark- ed the magistrate, \ INVITED TO JOIN.
