IDLE AND DISORDERLY

ENGINEER SENTENCED TO IMPRISONMENT. “Accused is regarded by the police as a man with a lazy disposition who does not want to work,” said ChiefDetective Ward in the Magistrate’s Court yesterday when referring to George Henry Archibald Horne, an engineer, aged 23, who pleaded guilty to being an idle and disorderly person with insufficient lawful means of support. Continuing, the chief-detective said that Horne had been knocking about the city doing no work for the past six weeks. During that time he had been seen in the company of convicted thieves. The detectives had told him to go and find employment, but he had taken no notice of them. Accused was sentenced to two months’ imprisonment with hard labour.
