A DAT IN RECORDER'S COURT
Smith Has an Unnaually Busy
With a large crowd present Thors
day morning BoconlsrV coart was
called to order promptly at 1U o’
clock. None of the usual offenders
were present; this bring a kind of
off eaaeon for that pleasing di
version known as gittin ginned up.
M. C. Ivey was tho first to claim
the court’s attention. His offense
was that he had nuned up the par
son of a friend in a manner contrary
to tho poacc and dignity of the com
monwealth; but the provocation ap
pealed to the Judge’s liniont na
tur* and was eased off with the costs
which, in this instance amounted to
*7 AO.
Joe Riley Jackson, a youngster
hailing from over about Duke way,
! occupied the star role in the day’s
! proceedings. He was charged with
having bombarded the house of res
of hi* naighbors; a shot gun being
the artillery said to have hern used.
Many witnesses were present to tes
tify for or against Jo* and his rase
consumed several hours Finally
though it was proven that he did not
do it - so be went his way rejoicing
and with his bank-mil intact; rt
cept, of count, the little amount re
quired by the lawyers.
For real criminality, Cha-lie
Brown, a sporty coon with the fare
of a gargoyle, was easily the claea
of the occasion, Charles has an a
rernon to work and had adopted for
hia vocation the art of dlsno-irr of
cocaine to lb* negm** of thin local
I lly. For that he wti permitted to
sire* on th* rood* for a period of
30 day*; and for another me diary
iny for vagrancy he waa given an ml
-nuonal 30 day* and rvqumtort to pay
the emit* in th* tern action*-- the
*um of $14 50.
WUli* Bam**, a negro fanner, wai
th* next to face th* Judge, and he
waa charged with diapoeing with a
crop grown upon the Unde of 1-Ge
nt* Sorrell in on* cane, and with da
(troying fence belonging to Mr. Sor
