NOT MUCH DOING
POLICE COURT SPECTATORS MEET
WITH DISAPPOINTMENT
CASES FEW AND FAR BETWEEN
Judge Boyle Spends Exactly Six Min
utes on the Bench, Hearing
Gases Against the Unfor-
tunatos.
CASES FEW AND FAR between

1t was disappointed crowd of NOR
bidly curious spectators that assembled
in Judge Boyles court this morning to
hear the woes and trials of the petty
offenders who go to make up the daily
grind of the police court wheels OF
justice.
1t was just such a crowd as assem-
bles every day-a crowd of idlers who
have nothing to do and apparently no
place to go, and who find their way into
the courtroom to get temporarily out OF
the cold and hear the tales of the less
fortunate who occupy seats in the DOCK.
The crowd had scarcely time to get
comfortably seated this morning when
court adjourned, there being so few
cases up that it required exactly six
minutes to transact the morning bust
ness.
Simply a Plain Drunk.
The first case was against Thomas
Grant. who was charged with being
plain drunk. His plea was guilty and
the fine imposed was IS.
John Kilbrighton, who was said to
have been disorderly at Park and Main
streets last night, answered guilty
before Clerk Winn had concluded read
ing the information. He was fined So
For the third time Thomas Moore
made his appearance within three days.
He is charged with assaulting Thomas
Suickels and with resisting arrest. His
plea was not guilty to each charge and
he was given until this evening to pre-
pare for trial.
When "Chic" Malone was called yes
terday the crowd expected something
out of the ordinary, but it did not ma
terialize.
Under Vagrancy Charge.
"Chic" was accused Of being a vagrant
and his case occupied considerable of
the courts time yesterday afternoon.
His attorney contended that in as
much as it had been shown that "Chic"
worked for living, he had visible means
of support and therefore he could not be
as alleged an idle person without WISH
BILE means of support
Judge Boyle took the matter under
consideration yesterday evening, and
this morning ordered Chic" discharged
from custody and the case against him
dismissed.
The larceny of two saws from Lechie
& Kuler, carpenters. was charged
against Thomas Thebold, also a car
penter. 1t was claimed that Thebold
took the saws from a tool chest at SUIT
toms new theater
The saws We're valued at So. Thebold
admitted that he took the saws and
asked the court to postpone sentence UNI
til he could see the complainants, in an
effort to get them ITO Withdraw the
Charge.

Stratton was man about 40 years old.
and he was suffering with mental
trouble amounting almost to imbecilty.
He refused to speak to any one, and
walked with his head down, as if under
the influence of melancholy.
Sheriff Kennedy said that Stratton
worked on the railroad as a iaborer at
Glendive, and that he INDUCED in some
unpleasant freaks before he was taken
into custody, the exposure Of his person
to small children being among them.
