Nothing strange.

A Chicago judge, who is a great
stickler for decorum in court. also

the Judge finally singled out one man
as the cause of much of the disorder
Eying him severely. he said:

The man, who was confused and
frightened, blurted out that ne had
lost his overcoat in the courtroom, and

face took on look of sternness and
