The Magistrate enquired what was the result of a previous similar case.

Inspector Fox replied that in the previous case the defendant was con. victed of dynamiting fish and fined $100. Inspector Earner asked: the Magistrate to take a serious view of the case, as the defendant was trading the gun cotton.

The Magistrate: But can you prove that he was selling it?

Inspector Fox: I could, but the in- former refuses to come to Court.

The Magistrate imposed a fine of $150.
