'-.Fur the past week 01 two the case of Spanish Fork City or, possibly more properly, Police Justice John F. J . " . Jones vs. Jas. iiuienison, nas oeeu t providing amusement for the good T , citizens of that citv. In the police I ' coun or mat city nas oeen seen me 1 spectacle of a judge also acting as t proscating attorney and prosecuting a I casehefore himself. The matter is, I bfiefly, as follows: '. Spanish Fork has as a police justice . a fossilized relic of the past by the i' name of John P. Jones. Justice Jones has a son, one Thos. O., who , took a leading part in this legal farce. ' ' Another of Spauisli Fork's citizens is a auotsiuan by the name of Jas. Hutchison. "Hutch," as he is familiarly famil-iarly called, has been endowed by Nature with a tongue whose keenness keen-ness vies with that of a razor which has never trimmed a corn. Hut Nature, in providing the gentleman with a nimble tongue and a keen wit, was compelled to leave him a little short in discretion. Once upon a tune, not long since, Messrs Police Justice Jones, Hutchison Hutchi-son and Thos. O Jones became involved in-volved in a political discussion which resulted in all three, at the behest of Police Justice Jones, depositing their mites with the minions of the law. The venerable justice remitted his own tine during good behavior. A few days later Thos. O. Jones, thinking think-ing he had reason therefore, had a warrant issued from the court of his father charging the valuable and 6omewbat indiscreet "Hutch"' with usirjir towacds himself, (the aforesaid Thos. O.) abusive, profane and slanderous slan-derous language, Hutchison appeared CTi utTffati til' SmrNfti'iife "g i 'it for the' ponderous mill of Spanish ork justice, jus-tice, as incarnated in the pers- n of J. P. Jones. City Attorney William Creer, when the case came to trial, quoted the law of, kinship which forbids a trial where the judge is father to the complaining com-plaining witness, and moved for the dismissal-Of the case. His honor denied the motion, whereupon the city's legal luminary shook the police court dust from his feet and jumped the Job. His honor declared he would go it alone, which he did. - The nimble and obstinate Hutchison Hutchi-son then demanded a change of venue which he didn't get, and the trial adjourned for a few days to get w itnesses it-nesses and other necessaries. ;. . In the' meantime Justice Jones 4 petitioned the City Council for the : uppointinent of a prosecuting attorney, attor-ney, but that body thought Mr. Creer's services were good enough for them, and saiS so. Then they took up a labor with the refractory justice, but at 2 o'clock a. m. gave it up as a hopeless hope-less task. The next day the hapless "Hutch" -was loaded into the hopper of Justice Jones' Justice mill and the tllyrt made torun him through the machine and into the barred and grated re-. 1 i,' frigeratr at the other end for such ''X.'nuJ'pose made and provided. Hutch-1 i j . v isou 'as obstinate and proceeded to r ; adjust himself crossways in the spouts at eyey turn, but resourceful Justice JoDes;-.-fallroadod him successfully xilong until the jury box was reached, Z- fvhich receptacle, by a verdict .if unt .'guilty, -compelled the machine to ...tbrow him out unreduced. Justice Jone then no doubt wished he hud not reconsidered his denial of Hutchison's Hutchi-son's motion for a Jury trial. The trial throughout was intensely amusing, and the fun-kiving citizens , thronged the court room, intent on getting the worth of thi money they would have to put up it taxes to pav Oie bill. The final scene of the trial was a fit conclusiift when the inar- l Ahai,-having .Jf'Hhe jury in their 8 nJrity1T T: i i un ed i n t h e 1 oc k . wdT I hopies he has Os smuggled in to tant when of which they bond or goo t out, bringing and teachers, JT,. fkA, which released er gentlemen much better ior it.

The company hails from Santatiuin. The Independent man saw this play at Spanhh Fork last winter, where it was presented by the home company under Mr. Graham's management, and it was, in his opinion, most excellently ex-cellently rendered.
