THIRSTY O'BRIEN.
John O'B,rien, one of the principal supporters of the Wellington Magistrate's Court, nearly came a nasty bump this, week when he appeared for the fifth time, within sijc months, on a charge of drunkenness. "For goodness sake don't send me to the Island," he pleaded when it was suggested that a term of enforced sobriety would benefit him. ■ Magistrate Page, however, decided to give him another chance and thirsty O'Brien was accordingly fined £3 m default 14 days.
