A stranger was pinched by pickpock
ct in a First street restaurant to the tune
of $40. He reported the same to Officer
Fox who al once accompanied him to the
hash fake The pickpocket, finding he
was caught by clear act slipped the
pocket book back into the strangers over
coat pocket, where it was soon after found.
It not being clear which O. the
half dozen loafers on the step were guilty,
and it not being likely that charge
against any one would stick, no arrests
were made. When returned, however, only
SOL was left out of the $73 in the pocket
book.
William Armstrong, vindictive sort OF
a fellow, was arraigned before Judge
Cooley yesterday, charged with calling
Gertrude Hanson and her mother vile
names. He evidently was of the opinion
thot he had perfect right to say "any-
thing he could prove" and was
DESTROYS of introducing testimony to show
that the women we're bad characters. The
court informed him that that question was
not at issue in the cause. 1t made no diff
ference who nor what the women in the
case were. He had no right to use abusive
and insulting language. Armstrong was
obliged to pay fine of $15.O5 to save his
personal liberty.
At the joint meeting of the Hennepin
county members of the state legislature,
and the city council tomorrow evening,
for The purpose of deciding upon action
respecting the proposed amendments to
the city charter, it is quite probable that
it will be decided to recommend the election
of an additional judge upon the munich
pal bench. The business of the municipal
court has increased to such a magnitude
that it is absolutely impossible for one
Judge to discharge the business of
both criminal and civil cases. Attorneys
complain at the unavoidable delay in
getting hearing, and it not unfrequently
occasions an unwarrantable expense on
the part of the clients. Judges
Cooley and Bailey would make
a ''strong team" if the term may be al
lowed, and both should be placed in con-
slant work.
