On appeal from an order of the Circuit Court dismissing for want of jurisdiction an appeal thereto from the judgment of a police magistrate, in an action by a village against a railroad company to recover for the violation of an ordinance of the village, it must be presumed, where there is nothing in the record to indicate that such case was a quasi criminal case so as to deprive the Circuit Court of jurisdiction, that such court did not err in dismissing the appeal.
