can't go to the wedding - but what can he
do? He goes to get his prisoner.
One look at Sir Roderick and he knows why
they want to get rid of him. He is in his cell
singing Pagliacci in high cracked tenor
and giving himself a manicure He is just
about the fanciest prisoner Dan has ever seen.
He has striped pants, short dark coat,
a high bat-wing collar and dark tie, pearl
gray spats, and a cane hanging over his arm.
He isn't so young, because his hair is silver
ing, but his eyebrows are coal black; his skin
is tanned and his eyes deep blue. He flashes
a smile at Dan and says in one OF those
throaty. far-away voices, Mice of you to
come, old boy"
Use your bracelets" says the jailer Hes
slippery" Dan pulls out his irons.
Sir Roderick signs and shrugs his shoulders.
'Beasty nuisance" he says. But whatever
you say, old boy"
Dan slips on the handouts and gives a
yank Sir Roderck ambles alongside, twirling
his cane with his free hand and whistling
Carmen. There is taxi outside. Dan pushes
Roderck inside and gives the name of hotel
near the station. He is going to spend lot
of time sitting around looking at Roderick
until train time so he might as we'll be COM
Portable in hotel room. Besides, he has to
phone Kitty and break the sad news that he
can't get to the wedding after all.
hITTY is staying at the Edgar estate with
the rest of the bridal squad, and when Dan
gets her on the phone she lets out happy
suueal She asks was the train late and will
he have plenty of time to dress and get to
church? And she says she is so happy he is
here because Maybelle has been making cracks
about him being such roughneck that Kitty
is afraid to bring him out in the open, and
even now this Maybelle won't believe Dan
will show So will he please be on time, es-
pecially for the reception afterwards, and
dress carefully, and be sure his pants are
pressed, and remember all he's learned about
etiquette, and be nice to everybody, and only
take one sandwich at time?
She goes on like this; at first Dan can't
get in a word; then he doesn't want to, be-
cause she is so excited and happy he hash I
the heart to let her down. After about three
minutes she takes deep breath and starts
all over again. We'll show herr" she says,

This development means that all

Must Reassign Cases.
It is impossible for a single Judge
to dispose of that many cases in a
day, officials said. AS notices for
Jury trials are sent out two weeks in
advance, however, it was felt that
the only way of handling the cases
temporarily will be to reasslgn those
which are ready for trial, but cannot
be reached. This will mean that
scores of witnesses who go to court
will have to return later, Guilty
pleas are expected to be received in
a number of cases. however. while
some probably will be nolle pressed,
it was said.

that Judge Newman is under a
physicians orders to remain at home
this week.
Because of the large number OF
non-jury cases that come up each
Monday. only one jury court is to
be conducted on that day, it was
announced.
Two Judges Handle Others.
On days other than Mondays 1t
was felt that two judges. Judge
George D. Nelson and Judge John
P. Mcmahon, would be able to
handle all the non-jury cases. Satur-
days are to be given over to nearing
motions and sentences in the jury
branches.
As an illustration of the heavy
burden of non-jury cases placed on
Police Court on Mondays, Mr.. Bram-
hall said that there were this
morning 142 lookup cases scheduled
to come up in the District branch
of the court, '18 in the United States
branch and 7 in the traffic branch
in addition to many other persons
particularly in Traffic Court, who
were ordered to appear.
