COMMISSIONERS PROCEEDINGS.

Stale OF Kansas, Barton County,
The St. Lucie County tribune. (Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, Fla.) 1905-1920, 1911-07-28

Another of those acts of which moth
ing was heard while the legislature was
in session and of whose very existence
the people were ignorant until the COM
plete lists of acts passed was published
was that extending the Jurisdiction of
mayors or municipal courts. The title
of this act is perhaps not very accurate
as the jurisdiction is extended in the
sense that the process of such courts
NAV hereafter be executed not only
within the limits of the municipality,
as heretofore, but anywhere within the
county. Under the provisions of this
act. if witness is desired who lives
anywhere in the county, outside OF the
city. subpoena may be served upon
him with just as much effect as if he
were found within the city, and his
attendance may be 'f,r.ed by attach
ment. So also if a. violator Of the law
escapes from the officer, and gets over
the line, he can not stand outside and
DEFY the officer, but the policeman may
pursue hinf any'distance beyond the city
| limits, So that it is within the county,
and make the arrest. 1t will no longer
be necessary for policeman to be
DEPUTY Sheriff so as to legally arrest
rugitiyeoutside the city, but he may
exercise, the same powers, as far as
violations of city ordinances are con-
cerned, Simply by virtue of his position
as policeman.

WALTON.

ing in Walton Tuesday.

for few days.
improvements are going on IN tbo
building of a nice wharf in front Of tbe
late W. c. C House.
Elwyn Thomas, of Eldred, F. G.
Saeger, of Ankona, and F.. s. Waters
visited the inlet last Wednesday.
Messrs. Walter Heller and L. R.
Jenkins, Of Fort Pierce, were visiting
here Sunday afternoon and evening
Where?
The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs. J.
i. Waters extend to them their sym.
paths, who are mourning the loss Of
their mother, Mrs. j. H. Callahan, of
Stockton, Maryland.
G. M, Bailey and H, U. Bonnet took
their departure Saturday morning for
an extended vacation. 1t is rumored
that on his return, Mr.. Bailey will
build fine bungalow to grace the riv-
er front of his plantation.
J.R. Waters who left last Wednesday
morning, and who confdentially told a
friend that he was going away to be
married, has been heard from as visit
ing his brother R. S. V. 7. Waters, at
Savannah, Ga. But no bride appears
on the scene. Strange, Russell always
tells the truth.
The passing on of Mrs. Elizabeth J.
Callahan at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. A. R. Sharply in Stockton, Nd,
was a shock to her Walton friends.
Yet knowing the fraility of her health
since the death of her husband, j. H.
Callahan, which occurred July 2, 1910,
it was not an unlocked for event. On
the 2lst she was laid to rest beside him
in Bethlehem. Mrs Callahan was
born in 1923 and from her girlhood had
been an active and valued member of
the Baptist denomination. Always
kind and pleasant, no favor ever re-
fused, her hand ever ready to help the
sick and needy, her presence will be
greatly missed, while pleasant memo
ries will be the portion of her surviv-
ing family who will rise up and call
her blessed. Six children survive, two
sons and four daughters, H. W. Gala
han, of Pocomoke City, Md, D. c. Cal
lahan and Mrs. A. W. Webb, of Gorde'
tree, Nd. Mrs. Frank Figgs, of Frank
lin City, Va, Mrs. A. r. Sharply, OF
Stockton, Md. and Mrs, J. 7. Waters,
of Walton, Florida.
