house of correction, all of which acts or omissions are hereby
declared to be criminal offenses; and the said justice shall have
power to issue all processes, and to do all acts which may be
necessary to the exercise of their said jurisdiction; may try and
determine all cases whereof they may have jurisdiction, and may
pronounce judgment and sentence therein, in the same manner
and to the same extent as the circuit courts for said counties
could, in such cases, if said cases were tried before said circuit
courts without the investigation of a jury; provided, however,
that if any person when brought before any such 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 the trial of such alleged offense pray a jury trial on the
part of the State, it shall be the duty of any such justice to
commit such alleged offender for trial in the circuit court for the
county in which the offense which was committed at its then ses-
sion, if it be then in session, or at the next session, if it be not
then in session, and to return said commitment or recognizance,
with the name and residence of the witnesses for the prosecution
endorsed thereon, forthwith to the clerk of said court, and the
justice before whom the case is tried shall inform the person
charged of his right to a jury trial, and on receiving recognizance
sent up by the justice, the clerk shall place the same on the
appeal docket, and issue subpoenas for the witnesses named by the
justice, and the case shall be tried on the information or the
warrant, as if on appeal, and if on waiver of jury trial before the
justice, and trial before him, either party shall feel aggrieved,
there shall be a right of appeal to the circuit court for the county
in which the alleged offense is charged to have been committed.
In case the judgment of the justice of the peace is against the
accused and he shall appeal, he shall enter into recognizance,
with security to be approved by the justice of the peace; and
in every such case the appeal shall be taken within ten days
after judgment entered.
