It was not because he lacked ability but merely 'because he had not interpreted the wants of the public correctly.

Fined $200 and Costs or Three Months. | { An example of just how hard the | O.T.A. pinches, was given in the! police court on Friday morning. when a man was fined $200 and costs, with the option of three months in jail, for "trafficking in liquor," the sald trafficking being that he had purchased a bottle of | liquor for a thirsty friend. But the story dates back to the | latter part of August, when straw J hats were in fashion, and a remind- er of the days of etraw hats occur red when a tippler went into the prisoners' box, with a straw "lid" in his hand. Said tippler was ar- rested the last day of August, for being intoxicated, and as he did not tell the court where he had se- cured his Hquor, there was no al- ternative for the magistrate, but to send Him to jail for three months, or until such time as he would dis- | close where he had secured his liq- | uor. : - After spending a month in jail, the used thought that it would be better for him to unburden himself of the "big secret" as to where he had secured his refreshments; ang | 80 he came down to Magistrate Far- rell's session on Friday morning. And he came direct from the jail, and had no time to go home and make any change, this accounts for his appearance before the Cad! with his straw hat. 'Well, when the fellow was call- ed to the box, to give all the im- portant evidence as to where he had secured his lquor, he announc- ed, much to the surprise of the 'magistrate and everyone in the fcourt, that he had secured his sup- ply at the home of a friend.
