William Evans was charged at the Police Court to-day with selling cider. The Magistrate said the burden of proof to show that cider was not alcoholic lay on the defendant. The percentage of alcohol in the sample was small, and as the defendant promised not to sell cider in future, the case would be dismissed with a caution.
