This morning being Monday the Re. corder was greeted with the ' usual large, number of Monday offenders and the court was in session for quite a wMle before the "docket" could- be cleared. Mack Williams started th ball roll ing "by getting drunk and using pro ifne language, according to the charge Against him, the affair occurring last 'Christmas eve. Williams is the man who walked out of the court room on Christmas day, he claiming that he thought that the court was done with him when his case had not been tried. Williams was charged with cursing a colored woman and treading on her foot on East Trade street. When he was arrested he gave the officers con siderable trouble and had to be club bed by Officer Summerrow before he was-caried to the station. The negro wa'j fined $3 and costs. Lou Perry, was before the court to answer to a charge of using profane language and being disorderly. The woman admitted that she made a stroke at one "lb" King with her foot but missed the mark after some words had passed between them. The case was discharged. . F. B. Smith, was before the court to 'explain why. he was drunk Saturday slight at the Southern depot. Smith ac cording to; the statement of Officer Hunter was rambling about unable to locate hAinself and came near walking into ay. out-going train before he was arrested. He was charged with the cost's. Ed Tull ywas up on a charge of be ing drunk and disorderly and running away from the lock-up. Tulley was arrested some days ago and asked to be allowed to use the telephone at the police station, and while Night Turn key Cochrane was engaged in another matter Tulley made his escape. Tully was charged-by J. W. Rice, who runs a restaurant, with ordering a lunch and starting, 'out without paying for : it. Rice took Tulley's hat to settle the Mil, ."and some trouble followed. The i Recorder fined each with the costs. "Ben Campbell, a colored youth, was overheard Saturday night by Officer Youngblood amusing himself by gently swearing as he sat in a carriage on East Trade street. The negro was arrested and today was fined $5 and the- costs. : Sis Brundy was before the court on a charge of assaulting Andy Hall. The evidence tended to show that there were some words between the parties on Saturday and on Sunday the wo man returned to Hall's and he had her arrested. The case was discharged by the Recorder. i HOBSON NOT COMING. TO SEND OUT SCHOOL MONEY. Committees of Districts to be Notified of Available Amounts Shortly. County Superintendent of Education j Big Payment in Mecklenburg County by the Mutual Life Snsurance Company of New York. .The present session of the Convoca tion of Charlotte came to an auspicious close with the services announced fcr yesterday. At 11 o'clock Morning Pray e'r was said, followed by a celebration of the Holy Communion. At this ser vice the Rev. Harris Mallinckrodt, of Winston, ; was the preacher. He had for his subject, "Footsteps Upon the Mountains," and the sermon was one of the finest which has ever been heard in this parish. Mr. Mallinckrodt has marlo a most nleasinr impression in Charlotte, and the sincere ring his sermons have to them, combined with a vigorous delivery, gives them an interest which never lags.. At 3:30 the teachers and scholars of the parish and missions combined in a service, which was one of a similar series of services held all over the country in Episcopal churches for that day in the interest of missions. Mr. Mallinckrodt was again the preacher for this service, and de lighted the large congregation with his many apt illustrations of Christian truths which, while they were simple enough to reach the minds of his 3'outhful hearers, were of such strength as to command the interest of the older ones also. This was a very beautiful service, the choir being composed al most entirely of children, who sang the vespers hymnsand chants with much sweetness. Promptly at 3:30 they marrhpfl down the side aisle of the church, all vested, and preceded by two crucifers carrying 'elegant crimson silk banners with white silk crosses. Turn ing to the right as they reached the front of the church they filed slowly up the centre aisle to enter the chan cel, their fresh sweet faces and child, ish voices, together with the back ground of colors and lights in the chancel, combining to make the occa sion one of intense interest to the chil dren and their friends. At the evening service, which was particularly under the auspices of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, Hon. J. C. Buxton, of Winston, made a fine ad dress on the subject of "Christian Manhood." In calling attention to the fact that Mr. Buxton would "address the Brotherhood, the archdeacon of the ? Convocation, the Ven. E. A. Osborne, made a few prefactory remarks con cerning the Brotherhood. He stated that the order originated some 16 years Sgo, and that it was not intended at the time to have it more than a local organization, but so unique and origi- j nai was tne mea ana so vaiuaDie was the organization to the parish, in which it began that it soon began to spread, and now wherever the English and American Churches unfold the banner of the cress, this order can be found Cochrane js busy today entering on his i , Flo!

Tne apportionments to tne ais- i tricts were made by the county super intendent himself, this work being left to him by the board. Mr. Cochrane states that he will like ly have the money ready for distribu tion in a week's time and he will send out notices to the various district school committees about the last of the j present week. The available school funds as previously stated, are larger than ever before and the work of the , , , county superintendent has borne good year. Death of Mrs. Carr. A telegram was received in Char- ! lotte yesterday evening announcing the death at Rose Hill. N. C, of Mrs. Tate Carr, mother of Mrs. A. S. Cheek, of this city. The end came yesterday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, after an illness of several weeks. Mrs. Carr was 6Syears old and was one of the best of women. Mrs. Cheek hai been at her mother's bedside for the past week or ten days. Carried to Belmont Today. Elwood Bates, the young man from Pittsburg, who was sent South by his parents to enter St. Mary's School at Belmont. N. C, and who was found at the Academy of. Music with the Knowles last week, was carried to Bel mont this morning to be placed in school there. The youth was accompanied by Father Francis, of St. Peter's Catholic church, here.

It is impossible to give the complete address at this time, but the introduction, which was beautiful, follows: "It is not only to those who have reached the high noon cf life, nor to those who walk in the sombre of its autumnal afternoon, nor to those who stand where the shadows lengthen and grow, that I come commissioned to ; Leave orders or 'phone Charlotte 367. speak, but more especially ' to. the i CHARLOTTE TRANSFER CO., 7 young man standing upon the thres- East Fifth street. hold of his career.
