An unusual case came before the Magistrate in the Ashburton Court the other morning, _ when two boys were charged with having wheeled their bicycles on the footpath in East street (reports the Guardian) This is a by-law that is not known to Ashburton people, and this was the first prosecution of its kind. The cases were brought up with the object of bringing the offence to the notice of the public, the pobco not pressing for a fine-. Both boys were admonished and discharged.
