were safely ensconced for the
week-end in the Hotel de Vickers

They appeared, together with two}

other Indians and an interpreter,
in the police court this morning
before Magistrate MeMullin.

Samson declared that he had
presented the white man, Ned
Williams, with the sum of 82,25
in current coin of the realm to
purchase withal a_ bottle of
“hooteh.”

Mr. Williams, in an agitated
and voluble manner, hastened to

show the fallacy of such a state-

ment, seeing that no money was |

found upon his person or whisky
in the possession of either him-
self or Samson. That is, of
course, in a commercial form,

True, two whisky bottles were
upon the person of Samson up-
on the arrival of the officers,
which the former, one after the
other, disposed of by hurling
them into space, they being sub-
sequently picked up undamaged
by the police. Bui here comes
the deep mystery.

Upon being opened the bottles
were found to contain nothing
but pure and innocent water.
The Indian was drunk, another
Indian supposed to have been
supplied by the former was
drunk, the white man was drunk,
the $2.25 had vanished and the
whisky bottles contained nothing
but water Was ever such an
inexplicable state of affairs
known before.

His Worship adjourned both
the cases until tomorrow to en-
able the detective department to
get busy and endeavor to un-
fathom the weird case

Two ordinary drunks of the
persistent variety were let off
with fines of 87 and &5 and &2
costs, respectively.
