DISTURBING A PARADE.
Hamilton, November 12. At the Hamilton Magistrate’s Court to-day, two men were charged with disturbing a military parade. Evidence was given that the defendants used the upper floor of a building adjoining the parade ground as a joinery shop and on the evening of October 15, when a company of cadets were being dialled, mock orders were heard issuing from the room occupied by the defendants. As a result there was considerable laughter among the cadets and the parade was disturbed. Defendants denied the charge. One of them said he sang while at work but he did not give his attention to the cadets at all. The Magistrate, Mr H. A. Young, convicted Francis Murphy on the charge, and ordered him to pay £2 27costs. The information against his companion was dismissed.
