VENTRIL0QUIsT DISCHARGED.
Showed Judge Sidener That He
Could Earn a Living.

Albert Jones's ability as a ventriloquist
Secured him his liberty in the First Dis
trict Police Court yesterday morning. For
a few minutes the spectators of the court
room were treated to an exhibition similar
TO those to be found under the sideshow-
tents of a circus. Dogs barked. birds sang
and rats sQuealed under the seats of the au-
dience. 1t created such confusion that the
bailiff had to call for order.
Jones is halfbreed, having an adnlixture
o. Indian and negro blood Several years
ago he discovered his ventriloquist powers
while hustling freight on the river front.
He forthwith quit work and obtained a
position with travelling show. The streak
of prosperity was too much for him. and
he lost his position because of his love of
drink. Since then he has been entertaining
crowds on the streets for the nickeis and
dimes they would drop into his hat.
For the last few days he has been using
the sidewalk at the corner of Third and
Marion streets for stage. 1t seems that
he has been making squeals of rats and
chirps of birds come from the ground over
which women were walking, frightening
some of them almost into Mysteries. Po-
liceman Stewart took him In custody Tues
day evening. He was locked up on a charge
OF drunkenness.
When brought into court he told Judge
Sidener his story. The Judge said that II
he would show his ability to earn a living
he would be released. The exhibition that
followed set the court In an uproar. Jones
was discharged.
