POLICE COURT.
Thursday, 3rd September.
BEFORE MR. T. Sencoual SMITH (POLICE MAGISTRATE).
DARING ATTEMPT TO ROD.
On the 1st last, a Chiness ward-boy at the Government Civil Hospital was sent about his business, but on the following night he returned, without permission from anybody.and proceeded to put into operation what is believed to be a
doring scboxe of robbery. He arrayed himself in one of the flannel suits worn by patients, and in the dim light of the wards looked like an inmate taking a harmless stroll round the place. It is cupposed that his object was to get at the helongings of the patients, the repository of which he was of course familiar with. The ward-boy on duty saw him, but did not immedi. ately peastrate the disguise. The interloper, however, did not more about with the freedom of a man not bent on mischief; he displayed a suspicious desire to skulk in the dark, and brought about his own undoing. The ward-ter approached the flanzel-robed figure and saw at ence who it was: he asked what the other wanted there, got a halting reply that carried no satisfaction with it, and promptly called Sister Franklin, who was also on duty. The trespasser was eventually given into pólice anstedy, and was sentenced to two months' hard labour on a charge of being in the hospital for an unlawful purpose.
