Edwards in the Ames Case. -Mis. Annie Ames wilt mii have to face ii jury at this term of court. She is charged with unlawful lelations with !r. C. 15. Knapp. of Finest City, in a hotel in this city. Dr. Knapp is now f.erving n, term in the county Jail for his sluiro In tho offense. When tho parties were arrested II was at the instance of Airs, Ames' hus band, but. aflor the conviction of Dr. Knapp Ames desired to be lenient with Ids wife and at his suggestion tho toiirt allowed a nolle piosoitii to bo entered in her ease. Alis. Klizabeth Knapp, tlio wife ot tlio doctor, did not like tills turn of af fairs, for slie believes that Airs. Ames is moi'o guilty than tho doctor and, desiring to so- ber dealt with as the doctor was. had Airs, Amos re-arrested. When, the case was called for trial yesterday morning, Attorney Joseph O'lirien. who appeared for .Mis. Ames, moved to quash tho indictment. This was not allowed by Judge l-Mwards, but tho case was permitted to go over until tlia afternoon on account of the absence of witnest-es. "When it was again called ATr. O'Drien addressed the court and said tlio ease ought to bo l.eld in abeyance i-r a nolle prosequi granted. "This is a most peculiar case." said Air. O'lirli-u. "and becaus-e of thai I am in doubt as to just what order to ask your honor for. By permission of this court a rule of nolle prosequi was enfeivl in this very enmo ease after all the facts had been rnnvnsscd and made known. The court decided that the best thing' to do under the cir cumstances was lo granf a nolle prosequi. ;uid tills was done. There has been no change in tho facts since, no newly discovered evidence and no no hint fhat any misrepresentations were made to tlta court. It Is a novel and unheard of proceeding to come In here with another indictment based on precisely Hie same offense and com pel this defendant to go to trial merely to gratify the spite and malice of tho prosecutrix. As I view it. this matter comes close to contempt of court." Judge Kdwards said that the matter whs of siiificiont importance to bnvi it decided in tlio interest of donning the proper practice in such ease and granted a rule to show cause why the indictment should nnt be quashed. TTe made it returnable novt Wednesday. The case was continued pending the disposition of the rule to quash.

Sturges against the light sentences Imposed on the men prosecuted by the Municipal league for having gambling machines In their saloons. Monday, Ulchard AI. Owens, or Oly pliant, In whose place; a machine was found, plead guilty and a fine ot $10 and costs was imposed. Yesterday morning Thomas Foley anil tyron Fallon plea-d guilty to like charges, and received a similar sentence. When K. Menzel was called and pleaded guilty, 12. Ji. Sturges arose and ad dressed the court. "What T have to say," said Air. Sturges. "applies not only to this man, but to all of the other men accused as he is. We do not care to either perse cute or prosecute them. Our motive is to honor and dignify this county and this court, and to purify this commun ity. We would purge it of Its outlawry. We would protect, the peace and dig nity of the county and our homes by inculcating In these men a. higher re spect for the luws of the state. 1 sub mit to tho court that this fine of $10 is not commensurate with tho offense. It costs us many times $10 to secure the evidence against these men and to se cure their conviction. T also submit to tho court that it Is encouraging to these men to continue in their wrongdoing and discouraging to us in the work wc have undertaken." , Judge H. M. Kdwards, who is on the bench In the main court, room this week, consulted with Judge J. P. Kelly, who was also on tho bench at the time, and at its conclusion Judge Kdwards said: "Tho court is always glad to hear from both sides regarding the imposi tion of punishment. However, the en tire responsibility rests with the court and not with the counsel. Judge Kelly and f, after consultation, decided that the object of this crusade aga.inst the slot machines up the valley lias ac complished its purpose. "IL has been the policy to be lenient with first offenders. If any one re peats his offense after once having en joyed tho leniency ot the court, we will bn Inclined to impose the full penalty of the law. Wo think, however, that tho lino of $10 and costs, with the de struction of the machines, is suflicient at present. We will therefore impose a line of $10 unci costs." FRIDAY NIGHT'S KECITAL.
