Other Cases at Tuesda; Session of Police Court. There were only a few cases heard at police court here on Tuesday and only one case had any particular importance. That was the charge of indecent exâ€" posure against Alfred Gagne, and he was sentenced to three months imâ€" prisonment for his crime. Gagne pleadâ€" ed not guilty and conducted his own defence. . Neither his own evidence nor the questions he asked of the witnessâ€" es, however, weakened the evidence gainst him. Three of the young ladies gave evidence, and this evidence rcâ€" sulted in the conviction of the accused. The evidence was to the effect that they and another young lady were returning home after midnight on a recent Sawâ€" urday and when they were passing the old ball park the accused who was imâ€" properly exposing himself called to them. They were frightened and hurâ€" ried home. At home there was a reiwâ€" tive a soldier, who said that the proper thing was for them to return down town in the hopes of locating the culprit, as the fellow might be frightening other women in the same way. As a resuit of this advice three of them started up town with the soldier close behind them. Scon the man appeared again with the same idea, only this time he made a grab for one of the ladies. The soldier, however, was too quick for him and knocked him down, holding him until the police arrived. The evidence of the ladies, the soldier and the poâ€" lice was quite positive that this was the man. The police said that the acâ€" cused‘s clothing was not properly adâ€" justed when they arrived on the seence. The evidence of the accused failed to explain his actions other than as deâ€" scribed by the other witnesses and he was accordingly given the sentence of three months. "Couldn‘t I pay a fine?" he asked them. The magistrate said not. disorderly conduct on street, a c stable giving evidence to the effect t the young fellow has been shouting street after being warned not to do Three Months for Frightening Young Ladies on Street One common, ordinary everyâ€"day drunk was fined $10.00 and costs on Tuesday afternoon, and three others of the same kind paid the same fine and costs at court on Wednesday mornine. 122 K 6 e lost by one Cke hir that ble entleâ€" with conâ€" that g on 0 so.
