There was a little black boy in the
police court on recent morning ans
wering to the charge OF vagrancy. He
had all the appearance of the common
vagrant, but exhibited a heart filed
with grief in responding to the stern
request of Judge Laurence Morrissey
to show why he should not serve thirty
days for violating the city ordinance
covering vagrancy. With tears trick
! ling down his cheeks, the pickaninny
who answered to the name of Earnest
Mitchell, told pitiful tale of work
| ing in Omaha, when he received word
from Keokuk that his mother was dy-
ing and that he was without the ne
cessary funds to pay his way across
the state of Iowa and had taken ad-
vantage of the hospitality of the Bur-
lington road as far as this city. He was
waiting to catch Rock Island freight
train to Keokuk, when the strong arm
of the law lit upon him and brough
him to Jail. The youngster was allowed
to continue on his way to the bedside
of his dying parent.

SHERIFF MUST PAY DEPUTY.
Where But One Is Employed County
Need Not Scar Expense.

Des Moines April l2-The sheriff
in a county in which but one deputy
sheriff is needed must pay that der
uty under the statute, which decta-ses
that the sheriff shall pay the salary
of the CHIEF deputy. SO rules the SUI
preme court.
sherin c. L. culver, of Fayette coun-
~, sued the county for three years
salary for his deputy sheriff on the
grounds that as he had but one deputy
chat one could not be considered the
chief deputy in the sight of the law,
and that therefore the county should
pay the deputy. The county resisted
and won out in the lower court. The
supreme court reversed this decision,
and the money for the deputy must
come from the pockets of the Sheriff.
