organization was illegal. He said that the accused still agreed that he was a member so the constable called Serâ€" geant Lepic in and asked the same question again. The answer was again question again. The answer was again in the affrmative. The literature that was found consisted of a number of quotations taken from the Bible and a number of notations regarding the Witnmesses of Jehovah made on them. A newspaper clipning referring to the death of Judge Rutherford, organizer of the sect, was also found among the nctes. Sergeant Lopic gave the same evidence and the accused crossâ€"exaâ€" mined each of them, putting the same questions to each. The that were asked in the crossâ€"examination were the same as questicns asked by several other perâ€" sons who were carged and convicted of the same offence here some time ago. He asked the witnesses if they had warned him before questioning him and they answered that they had not warned him as he had not yet been arrested. ‘He then asked if they could prove that he had ever publicly spoken in favour of the sect and they answered that thevy could not. He asked if they had ever seen him disâ€" tribute anyv of the sect‘s pamphlets and they had not. When the crown had completed its case the accused was asked if he had any defence to offer and he reached into another pocket and pulled out anâ€" other piece of paper on which more instructions were written. He started to tell the magistrate that he had the option of offering a defence if he so wished and started to pgoint out variâ€" ous parts of the law to prove it but Magistrate Atkinson told him that he wasn‘t arguing with him but simply wanted to know if a defence was going to be offered. The man then said that he had no defence to offer. Kector Samaur, 74 Windsor avenue, faced a charge cf being a member of the outlawed "Jehovah‘s Witnesses" sect on Tuesday afternoon and in the middle of the man‘s defence the maâ€" gistrate decided to make a conviction. At the conclusion when the accused started to stammer as he presented his defence in his own words, the magisâ€" trate fined him a hundred dollars and costs cr the alternative of three months in jail, The evidence was short and to the point while the acâ€" cused had his questions for crossâ€" examination of the witnesses written on a piece of paper and more instrucâ€" tions on another piece of paper. At this point the magistrate told the accused that he was proving that he was a member when he put those quesâ€" tions to the officers because it was plain that he had been instructed to ask the same questions as all the others had asked. He then started to sputter as he reâ€" viewed the previous evidence and told the magistrate that the police could not prove that he had distributed any of the literature or had ever spoken in public in favour of the sect., etc. but Magistrate Atkinson told him that he was simply being charged as being a member of the organization and fined iim a hundred dollars. ‘Jehovah‘s Witness‘ Given Heavy Fine or Jail Term in Police Court ThisWeek Freda Skolsky, facing a charge of being in possession of Oobscene literaâ€" ture, pleaded guilty and, through her attorney, Greg Evans, asked for a small fine.

A young man charged with the theft‘ | Constable Bert Braney of the Onâ€"| tario Provincial Police testified that he | had conducted a raid at the accused'si home and had located nothing during , his search,. The accused had entered as the search was about half finished and was indignant about the whole thing | but the constable said that he had , finally convinced her that he had a' search warrant for the house. then asked to see her purse and thc woman refused to give it to him. He: had to take it away from her and when | he looked inside he found her regisâ€" tration card and a small booklet of obscene literature. The booklet was entered as evidence. | The complainant, Matt Balinetski, told of going into a Fourth avenue pool room and of tossing a coin for fifty cents with a man inside. As he tossed his coin in the air the lights went out and the money that was at stake disappeared. The complainant said that was what started the fight as the accused had started to punch him for accusing him of taking the money. The pair then went outside and continued the fight on the sideâ€" walk and the final result was that Belinetski received a broken nose, a black eve, a laceration on the top of his head and a couple of cracked ribs. Balinetski said that the accused, Alâ€" fred Polonick, had struck him several times as he laid on the sidewalk. Baptiste Bigras faced a charge of assault on a female but the complainâ€" ant in the case asked the magistrate to withdraw the charge. She said that she now realized that her injuries had been sustained by an Her injuries consisted of a broken leg. It was pointed out by the defence that the defendant and complainant as well as several other persons had been on a party and were all "feeling good." They were sitting on a bench and the complainant had fallen off and broke her leg in the fall. Alfred Polonick was dismissed on a charge of assault causing actual bodily harm when the magistrate was unable to decide which of the two men had started the fight. There wasn‘t any doubt as to whom was the victor but it was a question as to who had started. it, as the complainant appeared in court with almost half his face hidden by bandages, while the defendant showed very little effect of the battle. a large one. ‘The magistrate disagreed, though, as he fined the woman fifty dollars and costs or the alternative of sixty days in jail. She paid the fine. The booklet that was found in her possession was ordered to be destroyed as well. The accused then said that she had found the booklet on the street and had put it in her purse intending to destroy it later. The magistrate then fined her and told her that she should be ashamed of herself for carrying such stuff around with her. Daniel O‘Shea was fined ten dollars and costs on a charge of common asâ€" sault when the complainant took the stand to testify that he accused had attacked him several times and apparâ€" ently for no reason. The accused did not appear in court. Polonick tock the stand and denied that he had struck the man as he laid on the sidewalk and contended that Ralinetski had started the fight and had struck him on both sides of the face and had torn his shirt. When they went outside both wanted to fight and Balinetski had received his injurâ€" ies when he was knocked down, the accused said. Magistrate Atkinson was unable to figure out who had started the fight so he dismissed the charge. Charles Baker paid five dollars and costs on a charge of disorderly conduct while Robert McGrath paid ten dolâ€" lars and costs on the same charge. Police said that the pair were fighting when they were arrested. Henri Chartier tried to stop the police from taking the two battlers to the police station and as a result he was assessed twentyâ€"five dollars and costs. The magistrate first fined him fifty dollars but later reduced it when he found that it was the man‘s first offence. A woman paid ten dollars and costs on a charge of being in possession of a quantity of beer while being an inâ€" terdicted person and three men paid fines of ten dollars and costs on charges of illegal possession of beer and wine. Four ordinary drunks paid the usual ten and costs. It is to be hoped that the following confused bit of conversation is not an example of the thinking being done on the subject of conscription in Canada at the present time. This conversation welled forth a few days ago from a lady who complained that her brother was wounded in the last war. "It was conscription tha she said. *‘My brother w in November of 1917.
