A bill-posting coolie employed by the Majestic Theatre appeared be- fore Mr. Whyte Smith, at the Kow- loon Magistracy this morning, on a charge of posting a theatre notice in Chinese at Nga Chin Wai Road, Kowloon City, without bearing the chop of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs.

The defendant pleaded guilty Sergeant Macnamara told his Worship that the offence was mere- ly a technical one, as the posters did not contain anything seditious. They were advertisements of the Majestic Theatre.. When arrested, the defendant intimated that he knew it was necessary to have the posters passed by the S. C.

In reply to his Worship, the Sergeant said permission would have been given to the defendant to post the bills in that particular street if application had been made. His Worship warned the defen- dant and registered a caution.
