DEPUTY READS
INFORMATION TO
WRONG PRISONER
"Whoap! Wrong defendant

"Whoapl Wrong defendant
So said D. H. Wolford. deputy dis
trict attorney, yesterday after
he had finished rapid reading of
the information charging Silvi Bisi
with non-support of his wife into
the ears of Joseph Sneed, charged
with an attempt to commit burg
larry.
Sneed had answered beckoning
finger. and stood before Judge A. C.
Finney while Wolford read the in
formation, as required by court pro-
ceeding. When Wolford turned to
hand a copy of the information to
the defendant he found that he had
been reading to the wrong man.
The mistake was soon rectified,
and Bisi stood before the court.
Haven't you been before me on
this same charge before?" asked
Judge Finney.
About a dozen times Bisi re-
piled.
The defendant entered a plea of
not guilty. Judge Finney continued
the case for one month. releasing
Bisi on his own recogniZance with
instructions to pay his wife So a
week during the month. Should the
defendant follow the courts in
structions the charge will probably
be dismissed at the end of the
month.
Sneed afterwards entered a plea
of not guilty to the charge Of at
tempted burglary. Trial was set for
March 2.
E. O. Chamberlain and w L. Pal
vado pleaded guilty to grand theft,
and entered applications for pro-
baton.
Judge Finney refused to issue a
bench warrant for the arrest of
Roy Mclaughlin, charged with
failure to provide for his minor
child. Finney ruled that McLaugh-
lin had apparently done all in his
power to provide for the child.
Attorney Ernest r. Utley gave no.
tice of his intention to file an ap-
plication to have C. D. Cannon,
charged with forgery, certified to
the juvenile court for trial there.
