appear that the offender is intoxicated, may confine said of-
fender in some secure place until he is sober and may provide
further for the confinement of any person arrested, if the
time be reasonable, as in the night, whereby he cannot attend
the justice until a reasonable hour of the succeeding morning,
when he shall be taken before a Justice of the Peace, and dealt
with according to the nature of the offense, provided that the
Mayor and Common Council may by ordinance provide that
such person so arrested may deposit with the bailiff a sum of
money to cover any fine that may be assessed against him, ac-
ceptable to said bailiff.

36. Justices of the Peace for Prince George's County, res-
idents in the town, are hereby declared to be conservators of
the peace of the town, and it shall be their duty to order the
arrest of any person found by them breaking the peace or
disturbing the quiet and order of the town, or violating any
of the ordinances made by the Mayor and Common Council,
and upon conviction to fine or imprison such offender as pro-
vided in said ordinance. The fees of the Justice shall be the
same as are allowed for similar service by the laws of this State.

37. In the event of a vacancy in the office of the Justices
of the Peace, residents of the town, or in the case of sickness,
absence or disability of the said justices, the hearing of the
case or the transaction of the business assigned to the said jus-
tices by the charter, may be had before any other Justice of
the Peace in and for Prince George's County; and the Mayor
and Common Council of Capitol Heights may provide for the
expense so incurred.
