BARMAID'S REGISTRATION.
FAILURE OF PROSECUTION. The hearing of a case in which Ernest Page (Mr. Allan Moody), licensee of the ]ftoy*i Hotel, was charged with employling an unlicensed barmaid, and .Nellie Goifts (Mr. Index) was charged with aiding and abetting the offence, was concluded before Mr. J. W. Poynton, S.M., in the Police Court yesterday. The evidence showed that though Miss Goiss' name had been struck off the register, the cancellation had not been gazetted. The reason given for striking the name off the register had been that she had been out of the bar for more than two years, having been absent from New Zealand. ; This was denied by the defence. Defendant said that though she had been in Australia for some time she had not been out of the bar for a period of two years. After hearing further evidence, the magistrate dismissed both informations, remarking that one of the grounds for the cancellation of the license was that defendant had been absent from New Zealand for two years, but this was not so.
