JUDGEMENT GIVEN AGAINST THE JUNIOR LAW

His Landlady Is Also After Him, Seeking How to Get Twenty-three Dollars

F. G. Glenn, the State street tailor, got a judgment in Justice Gibson's court Wednesday afternoon against James A. O'Neill, for $23.

O'Neill is a junior law. It appears that last summer he ordered the clothes from Glenn and when they were made paid the tailor $5 on account. He later discovered that the suit had been made in Chicago and on the claim that it was a "hand-me-down" refused to pay Glenn the balance of the account due.

Miss Catherine Laughlin, of 313 N. Thayer street, is another person who has a grievance against O'Neill  She was in Justice Gibson's court this morning and wanted to know how she should proceed to force O'Neill to pay $23 that she says he owes her for room rent. She also claims that he owes his boarding house keeper over $23 and is going to make an effort to join her fortunes with the latter, thinking that if both women proceed against O'Neill at the same time he may be made to settle more quickly.

When O'Neill had his hearing yesterday he endeavored to make an argument before Justice Gibson. It did not succeed, however, and his tailor was given judgement against him, which, it is said, is very uncertain of collection.
