|. The hearing now going on before the
superior civil tribunal, in Paris, of the
case of the Swedish Baron de Adelsward
and the Belgian Count de Warren, who are
accused of carrying on the practices of
devil worship in their apartments, where
they were caught in a raid, has reaWak-
ened public interest in this mysterious
body Of men and women, who worship, or
pretend to Worship I4ucifer.
It Is charged that the baron and count
dedicated a room as a temple to the devil,
and there initiated neophytes into the So
called mysteries Of the worship of his
Satanic majesty. Idols, skulls and cross
bones and symbols Of the devil were the
principal decorations of the temple. The
prisoners base their defense on the dec

Justices Of the Peace,
Their Uses and Functions.

Perhaps there is no other place in
the city of st. Paul. where SO much.
of sOrdid life is revealed as in the Of
fee of a justice of the peace.
There are four such offices in st.
Paul The signs of three of these are
to be found within the radius of one
block in st. Paurs business district.
Weatherbeaten and most unlOVely are
those signs, but they are reckoning
fingers to those poor who have, or
fancy they have, some legal claim upon
the property of their fellow men. Also
they are reckoning fingers to those
happy souls who, having procured
license to wed in the city hall not far
away, have not quite decided whether a
minister's knot or Justices knot will
make them one.
Come up and be united" such a
sign seems to invite. I'VE will per-
form the ceremony cheaply and well.
and (here If signs could wink this one
certainly would), should privacy be de-
sired. You will be disturbed by no
awkward questions nor will you be
embarrassed by the stares of gaping
Onlookers." So Cupid frequently floats
up the dingy stairs that lead to the
Justice of the peace's office. and for a
while at least glorifies it's uninviting
exterior.
The court presided over by a jus
tice of the peace is Il poor mans court,
and the furnishings emphasize this
fact. At one end of the room on a
raised platform are a desk and a chair
for the justice. The remainder of the
furnishing consists of chairs for wit
nesseS and for jurymen-for OCCASION
ally there is trial by jury-and
shelves for law books.
A justice of the peace may try any
civil case that does not involve an
amount larger than 500. All cases
that involve larger amounts up to $500
must be tried in the municipal court.
In some cities these justice courts have
criminal jurisdiction. There was a time
in st. Paul when such jurisdiction was
allowed them, and then the courts were
the scenes of busy life. Now garnish-
ment suits, writs of replevin. and other
legal actions that involve the collection
of debt are all that take up the. at
tention of the Justices court.
Need Not Know the Law.
1t is not necessary that justice of
the peace should be a lawyer. Few of
them are lawyers. The ideal justice is
