! One Of the most obstinate and nasty
prisoners Constable Giblon has had in custody
for some time was Adam Yushinski, who
was arraigned before Justice Toomey last
night on a charge made by Mrs Maggie
Wassaleyski. The woman said that when
she asked him for money due for board the
defendant assaulted aud attempted to kill
her. When before the Justice Wassalovski
acted like mad man. He first declared
that he didn't care if he should be given i'm
prisonment for fifteen years. Then he
changed his mind and said he did not want
to 90 to Jail, and there were not
enough police in the town to take him there.
Efforts to quiet the man had a contrary effect
and he wanted to whip the complainant, the
constable and the Justice. He wanted to
clean out the office OF course the man got
what he was looking for, and he now stands
committed in default of $500 bail. About
two years ago the same man almost caused
bloodshed in Justice Toomey's office and it
required the united efforts of eight men to
subdue him.

Of tho United States Embassy, were summoned
to court at Maidenhcnd to-day for riding tricy-
Giles on the footpath at WINFIELD. Neither

from London to tho magistrates claiming diplo-
matte privileges on behalf OF his son. The
Maideiihcad magistrates communicated with
the Home Office In regard TO the matter.
The Home Office tclcgraphod to tho Maiden

diplomatic privileges claimed apply in tho cases
OF the young men. Two similar cases have re-
Gently occurred involving persons under the

that of n clerk in tho employ of the embassy,
who was arrested for reckless bicycle riding,
and the other the case OF ono of the Ambns-

misdemeanor In both instances tho defendants
effectively used tho diplomatic privilege when
arraigned to answer the charge.

which would mean the overthrow of the rcgu-
