A warrant was issued yesterday morn
ing for the arrest OF Frank Lashua on the
charge OF intoxication, and Chief OF Police
E. S. Abbott proceeded to the Lashua
house in Lower Canada to take the cul-
prit. As the officer was reading the war;
rant to Mr.. Lashua, the latter found that
the document appealed less and less to his
literary taste the more he heard OF it, and
he suddenly interrupted the rhetorical
exercise by jumping to his feet, dashing
out of the door and plunging into the
river. He breasted the waves OF the roar
ing branch in gallant fashion, climbed the
opposite hank and was off before his pur-
suer could get around by way of the ford
to meet him. He is still enjoying the
sweets of liberty, tempered at first by
suit of damp clothes.
