A Judicial Drama.

Z f
There We're happy times in.
Judge Reynolds court two even
:ings last week after our paper
had gone to press.
On Wednesday evening Attor-
8ney Bailey desired to read one of
his famous kilograms in his clos
ing address to the court In the
Burt Angel case. Attorney.
Street objected on the grounds
that twice before his Worthysop
ponent had introduced fake u |
kilograms To influence Judge and
jury aftss tlae evisl encs was i III. d
This Bailey denied, and q wordy
duel followed. Hot air and rank
names seethed and tum bled, and
the janitor had to open the win
dow and put sulphur on the
stove. No lives were lost.
Thursday evening Judge Reyn,
olds was to give his decision, and
it is said that printed invitations
were issued by Mr.. Bailey to his
chums, asking their presence to
a barbecue. They came, but as
Hamlet is no good with Hamlet
left out, they were disappointed.
Mr.. Street did not appear. Still,
Mr.. Bailey as a host is always
a liberal man, and the entertain
ment was not without merit.
When the decision was given
against him and court adj djourned,
he rose to the occasion and
accused the judge of being un-
duly influenced by the county
attorney (Mr. Bailey had read
the Beltrami County News.
+ Judge Reynolds doffed his
judicial robes, and in words that
raped like bare knuckles, called
Mr.. Bailey a liar; then seconded
his motion by declaring that no
body butsa coward would accept
"..
such a title. Then the curtain
fell, and to the tune of the dox-
ology the crowd dispersed. Oh!
the backwoods is full of sketches.
