MAN SENT TO PRISON.
DOCTOR'S BAG STOLEN, (By Telegraph—Own Correspondent.) NEW PLYMOUTH, this day. A term of one month's imprisonment was imposed yesterday on Joseph Mischefski who was charged with stealing a bag of surgical instruments, the property of Dr. T. Thorpe. "This offence might have meant all the difference between life and death," commented the police prosecutor. Mischefski pleaded that he was drunk at the time, but the magistrate said he did not think he was so drunk that he did not know what he was doing.
