shall have jurisdiction, original and concurrent, with the Circuit Court
for the said Wicomico county, and the said justice shall have power to
issue all process, and to do all acts which may be necessary to the exercise
of his said jurisdiction, and may try and determine all cases whereof he
may have jurisdiction, and may pronounce judgment and sentence therein
in the same manner and to the same extent as the Circuit Court for the
said county could do in such cases if such cases were tried before said
court without the intervention of a jury; provided, however, that if any
person, when brought before any justice having jurisdiction of the case,
shall, before trial for the alleged offense pray a jury trial, or if the State's
Attorney for said county shall, before trial of such alleged offense, pray
a trial by jury on the part of the State, it shall be the duty of such jus-
tice to commit such alleged offender for trial, or to hold him to bail to
appear for trial in the Circuit Court of the said county if it be in session,
or at its next session if it be not in session, and to return said commitment
or recognizance with the names and residences of witnesses for the prose-
cution endorsed thereon, forthwith, to the clerk of said court, and the
