JUDGE AND GRAMOPHONE.
A THREATENED ARREST. B r TeWrnph—Press Aaiociatlo*.. HAMILTON, February 28. The noise of a gramophone in a shop near the Courthouse disturbed the proceedings in the Supreme Court to-day, Mr Justice Blair said:—“Get somebody to slip over and stop that noise.” A constable left, and returned. The noise persisted. The Sergeant of Police made his way over the road. With his reappearance, a new record was* put on. Two sergeants then saw the music seller, but even their persuasion failed to effect a cessation of the music. Finally, His Honour instructed the Sergeant in charge, if the gramophone was still playing in the afternoon, to arrest the culprit, and bring him before tho Court. His Honour would then deal with him. The hint was sufficient, and peace reigned.
