MAGISTRATE IS
IN A FUNNY FIX.
Police Court Boss Finds Himself
Waiting for Dismissed
Offender.
REMEMBERS HIS ACTION
William Brown, colored, Subject Of
Walt, Still Hangs Around
the Town.
REMEMBERS HIS ACTION

Magistrate Charles J. Smith found
in funny little predicament
this morning after he had waited for
an hour for deputies from Sheriff o.
l.. Burners office to bring along one
William Brown, colored, supposedly
held in the county Jail to await hear
ing before the police court justice.
The magistrate had William up for
hearing some few days ago after an
arrest had been made by Detective
Herman Sehnert. Brown was the
keeper of somewhat notorious negro
rooming house at 1905 Fourth avenue.
When his case was In court, the mag
istrate was asked to show leniency
and Brown would leave town. The
magistrate demurred, and then contin-
ued the case till today. A few min
utes later, he dismissed Brown but
made no record Of 1t. And so this
morning Brown was wanted.
STILL IN TOWN.
Deputies searched the county Jail
but found him not, nor was his name
on the records. Finally the magis,
trate came to and remembered that
he had dismissed the case. Be that
as It may, Brown Is still hanging
around Rock Island and is apparently
free from molestation. His promise
to leave town at once has gone by de,
fault thus far.
