ONE MAN APPEALED AND DIED

Some time ago Acting Police
Judge Britt established the rule that
all cases appealed from police court
to the district court would have to
be accompanied by filing fee. When
Judge Foster returned he continued
the practice.
The clerk OF the district court has
taken stand in refusing TO file the
transcripts Of thirty-one cases in which
the fee has not been paid. As a result.
Judge Foster Friday morning issued
thirty-one bench warrants for the Of
Tenders named by the clerk. These PEG
pie will be rearrested and held without
bond to await the action of the police
court.
Several Pay Fines.
Gus Abrlotes. who was fined S25 and
costs for keeping n disorderly house. was
the first 10 be brought into court He
was released when he paid his fine. As
the period to appeal had gone by he
could no nothing else but pay or go to
jail.

house, was also brought I'm Saturday

was fined $50 and costs for keeping a
disorderly establishment. was arrested
by Sergeant Wilson and recommltted.
Pays BOndsmen.
To show how strong the appeal bust
ness" was getting. an attache of police
court cited a statement that one of the
men made while awaiting his hearing.
He was fined $50 and costs when he was
first arraigned. He at first refused TO
pay his fine because 'he- had already
paid his bondsmen sl5 to take the case
entirely off his hands" That professional
pondsmen have been accepting small
fees to dispose of cases in which the
guilty parties had been fined consid-
cradle amount is a practice which is
causing this sudden effort to stop the
tide.
Leaves the City.
Many for whom pencn warrants have
been issued will not be apprehended and
the city will lose the amount of their
fine. Lena Adams. gypsy. who sometime
ago was fined $50 and costs and secured
her liberty by appealing without paying
a filing fee, has left the city.
Tony Papas, another fellow who was
fined in a disorderly house case, died
at the county poor farm some weeks ago.

British Headquarters, France
There are points along the British
front which see nothing but desultory
shell fire and sniping for weeks and
months on end; points where neither
side has made an attack through the
winter and spring. These are known
as quiet corners. A practical stale
mate exists. Neither Rriton nor Ger
man finds any object in trying for a
gain. Troops who have been in the
thick of it elsewhere are sometimes
sent to these regions for rest and a
change.
Other points-points which stick
out, as it were-are known as hot
corners" where the guns and rifles
seem always busy. Such has been
the La Bassee region.
A visitor may see about as much OF
what is going on in La Bassee as an

you destroy the house, you have de-
