Francis Boucher is a prisoner at the
police station awaiting hearing this
morning on the charge Of defrauding a
boarding house keeper. on which
charge he was arrested Friday morn
ing and should have had a hearing the
same morning had it not been for cir
cunstances. And had it not been for
those same circumstances Mr.. Boucher
might have been spared the inconven-
fences which he suffered because Of
passing the night in the station. He
was arrested Friday morning shortly
after the complaint had been sworn
and when on his arrival at the police
station he was taken into the judges
Office he was apparently as sober as
a man could be, but in the interval
between sending for the arrival of the
complainant the prisoner became sud-
denly intoxicated to the extent that it
was necessary to abandon all hopes of
hearing in the case until later. There
was no doubt in the minds of those
present that the symptoms manifested
by the prisoner were genuine, though
rather unusual in their sudden appear
ance, and he was accordingly taken to
the cell room to sleep Off the effects
Of whatever he had imbibed.
