CIRCUIT COURT !.
STARTS MONDAY
Judge Frank E. Everett Will Convene
Fall Term-Heavy Docket-Three
Weeks Term.

Judge Frank +. Everett, of India
nola, will convene Circuit Court here
Monday morning, being the regular
November term. : The term will last
three weeks and the docket is very
large. The first two weeks will be de.
voted to civil cases, the last to GRIM
inal.
There are ITO cases on the docket
and ia criminal cases. All of these
will not likely be tried.
Circuit Clerk Sharkey Pate has ev-
erything in readiness for the conven-
ing of court. He stated this morning
that Jail cases would be in addition
to the ones listed on the docket. These
cases will be tried first. The grand
jury will indict in the cases now in
Jail and immediate trial will be made.
The reason of this is to relieve the
county Of the expense Of keeping the
prisoners. After trial they are eth
er free, or can be sent to the roads.
Some few are bailed out.
There is little probability that bail
cases will be tried at this term of
court because Of the congestion of the
docket. In most of the cases bail will
be continued.
Judge Everett will arrive Monday
morning, if nothing happens to pre-
vent, and will open court immediate
