COURT DISTURBED
JUDGE OBJECTS TO GRAMOPHONE. HAMILTON, Foil. 28. The noise of a gramophone in a shop near the Courthouse disturbed the proceedings of the Supreme Court to-day. Mr Justice Blair: Get somebody to slip over and stop that noise. A constable left and returned. The noise persisted. A sergeant of police made bis way over tbe road. With his reappearance a new record was put on. Two sergeants then saw the music seller, but even their persuasions failed to effect tbe cessation of tbe music. Finally liis H'«iour instructed the sergeant-’li-tharge that if the gramophone was still playing in the afternoon to arrest the culprit and bring him before the Court. He would then deal with him. The hint was sufficient and peace reigned.
