LATE LOCALS.
“As a rule, Chinese are kind to animals, hut in this case a horse was being worked while it was quite unfit,” said Mr A. J. Mazengarb in the Magistrate’s Court, Wellington, when appearing for Kwoug, a Chinese, who pleaded not guilty to a charge of cruelly ill-treating a horse by driving it when in an unfit state.

Page), said that he must enter a conviction and ordered Kwong to pay Court costs, ,C2 15s.
