COMPULSORY PARADES.
CASE FOR THE PULL COURT. Some timo ago, Mr. W. 6, IMddeJLj S.M., dismissed certain informations laid by the Defence Department against persons who (a) had not attended the training onmp when ordered to <lo so, and (b) had foiled to nttend certain compulsory parades, on tho ground (1) that refusal to attend camp was an offeneft against military, not civil law, and therefore punishable only by a Military Court, and (2) that thcro was no menus of knowing whether a person had attended the specified number of compulsory parades until the end of the year. The military authorities appealed, and the appeal was heard recently before Mr. Justice Cooper, who reserved his decision, remarking that it might bo necessary te refer the points to tho Full Court.
