The Auto Court.

County Judge Smith established a precedent in Mineola when he held a term of the county court in his automobile. Dunn Steele, an aviator, was charged with culpable carelessness in having run down an officer with hisairplane at Belmont park and was held by Justice of the Peace New for the grand' jury. Judge Smith was just leaving when the defendant, accompanied by A. L. Garr of a bonding company stopped him. He obligingly opened court from his automobile, arraigned the defendant, held him in $2,000 bail, signed the bond, adjourned court and sped away for Oyster Bay. —New York Sun. ? -
