Court. Up to Tuesday night 3,7 bond*
traveled that . route. -These xanaed,
from $100 to $1,000, averaging nlwK,,
$200. It has been the experienro cd;.
the past that about onnhalf of ttHw
forfeited bonds have been cullecteA
Still that would turn quite, a wariS;
sum into the treasury of the camwta?.
It would appear at first thnm®hfi
that it would be cheaper to s£»»d,
trial ami pay a fine of $25 or $Ws.
than to pay a bond of hundred or fine* ,
hundred dollars. But* the .definwfaffllfe,

among the lawyers aa the “dsaptoirSfv
a incidents.” Hd fcaknintes that
some hook or crook he may avoid th*
payment of the bond, wte* would
clear profit and save the fme imtagf--:
and the lawyer’s fee.
