City Coirt ;
o Happenings I

In the Recorder's court this morning
Geo. Berryhill, an old negro, was up'
charged with obtaining money under
false pretense. Berryhill has a way of
going over the city asking for money
to bury some one. Yesterday, his
friend, George Green was dead and he
was very anxious to see . that George
was properly put away. He tackled a
man on Tryon street last night and the
man recognized Berryhill as an old of
fender and called the police. Officer
Summerrow, who was standing; near
by, arrested Berryhill and took im to
the tombs. Acting Recorder Hilton
sent the old man to the chaingang for
thirty days. Only yesterday Berryhill
completed a sentence of 30 days on the
gong for the same offense. -
Abe Withers, colored, charged with
being drunk rncl using profanity on-the
streets, was sent to tho gang for 30
days.
Marshall Bailey and Joe Harris were
each taxed with the costs for trotting
their teams through the square.
SOME HOTEL TALK.
Central to be Rebuilt The Winter
Resort Hotel and Others.
The Central hotel, known far and
wide as one of the best hotels in the
South, is to be rebuilt. Mr. P. P. Mil
burn, the well-known architect, is . to
draw plans for the New Central.
For some time it has been, known
that a decided change was to be made
in the present building. There has been
some talk of forming a stock company
looking to such improvements. Yes
terday afternoon the present owners
of the building, Mrs. R. M. Oates and
Mrs. M. E. Wriston, "decided to re
build the hotel.
The walls of the building both on
Tryon and Trade streets are to be torn
down .and, in fact, the New Central
will be all that the name implies. The
interior of the -building will also be
new throughout, and there will be add
ed about 50 or 60 additional rooms.
Elegant rooms with baths attached
something Charlotte hotels have long
needed will be one of the special at
tractions of the new building. In ad
dition to these the hotel will be equip
ped with all the modern conveniences
of the up-to-date metropolitan hotels.
Mr. Milburn, the architect, thinks he
can manage to conduct the improve
ments without seriously interfering
with the business of the hotel or of
those who have store rooms rented in
the building. To do this he will have
to build "blind walls."
It is generally understood that the
work of re-building will commence at
once. Mr. Milburn. will have his men
here next week to take measurements
and arrange other details preparatory
to making plans for the new building.
To the News man last night, he stated
that he hoped to begin tearing down
the walls in a few weeks.
Manager Charles E. Hooper, the clev
er and affable hotellist, who has a lease
on the building, has been receiving
congratulations today. Mr. Hooper is
one of the best hotel managers in the
South and his only handicap has been
the present state of the building. That
he is to have practically a new house
through and through is something his
friends feel exceedingly proud of.
With the completion of the New
Central, Charlotte will have a hotel
building that she can justly feel proud
to point strangers to.
The news of the rebuilding of the
Central has put more hotel talk in the
air. A prominent hotel man today in
formed the News that the big winter
resort hotel that the papers have talk
ed so much of, is now practically a
certainty. The News informant thinks
that it will be located on the Cramer
lot on South Tryon street.
And, while talking of hotels, it will
be well to remember that Mr. Scoville,
of Atlanta, is seriously considering the
purchase of the old Mansion House
property, with no other idea in view
but to build a modern hotel building.
In fact a Charlotte contractor is now
in correspondence with Mr. Scoville in
regard to this.
And, Dr. C. G. . "McManaway is to
shortly begin the 'erection of a beauti
ful hotel building on the Rintels' lot
on West Trade street. Dr. McMana
way says he is going to build and Dr.
McManaway will do that very thing.
So, after all, Charlotte will not be
very short of comfortable and good
hotels. At an rate, we will try and en
tertain, well, all who come this way.
