It is a very attentive, . ctrul gathering. Not only negroes l a a jrenerous sprinkling or white people listen eagerly for the scraps which fall front the intellectual bat tles fought out witain the sacred pre cinct around the bar. Each ludi crous remark which falls . from the lips of . the excited witness, each ten-stroke scored by alert lawyers, each witty remark which emanates from the quiet anJ business-like judge who has never theless, the Alexander gift of -humor, Js noted and. laughed at. But If the crowd glories In humor, it Is not lack ing In appreciation of the melo dramatic end long experience has not dulled but rather sharpened its per ceptive powers.'--The court yesterday wns distinguished by Us lengthlness, though the financial results of tho season of court were not inconsid erable, and one or two of the cases were interesting. - - Among these was the trial of Mr. W. B. Starnes on the charge of com mitting an " assault on his daughter. ' He was found not guilty, it being al leged and conteded that there existed a conspiracy against him. The young woman denied th charge. Mr. Joim A. McRae defended the accused and did effexltlve work. The witnesses were not allowed In the room, save " only when each was being examined, it being thought that in this way it could be best ascertained w.iether or ; not a conspiracy was being brought into piy. 'There was little evidence nave hearsay and the defendant was discharged. Another case of Interest was a diffi culty between Messrs. F. H. White, a Charlotte produce . merchant, and W. M. 'Branner, w ho "Is proprietor of Branner'a Moving and Storage Com- ' pany. Mr. White was iadlcted on the rharges of disorderly conduct and assault with deadly weapon, while Mr. Branner bore witness against him. - Mr. Branner, who lives next door on East Fourth, said that the defendant had come home intoxicated Saturday night and had sworn at ev erything In sli'it, including the wit ness, who was on his own front porcn. v Both men went for fselr guns, but Mrs. Branner took the pis tol from her husband. Mr. White de nied drinking to an excess, said that he was conscious all the time and did none of the things alleged. He was fined (15 and costs on the disorderly conduct charge and bound over on the otner. There were no other cases of spec- . lal Interest, but there were tfrany of : them such as they were. The total receipts amounted to 1189 not a bad income for three hours' work. DEATH OF MR, T. L. RJTCH. .

A Terrier That Took Hie Odoon's Pic hires Literally. A striking tribute to the llfelike f ness of the Odeon's pictures was un- consciously paid yesterday afternoon by a little black and tan terrier, who. having nothing else particularly to do, diifted in to view the pictures and to gJise at the lovemaking scenes ac- companying the Illustrated song. No sooner did the machine get busy than the canine did likewise. He rushed from his obscure place to the front, ' barking furiously at the human fig ures who tumbled over bicycles and . tabla. is they drew nearer, each . tima hlB courage weakened and he re treated almost to the door, still bark Ji.g fsverlshly. He was removed, still making a noise three times as big as his body. The pictures are "hstker Does the Impossible," a humorous picture, and "Saved from the Wreck," a thrilling 1 drama of the sea.

The Charlotte Man is Humiliated He Cannot Account . For His Iis takc. That was a pretty little story you reporters spoiled for we in this morn ing's paper," said the Charlotte man who saw a one-armed Ashley Home as he seated himself in an easy chair, "but there is one thing 1 want to thank you for, and that Is you were kind enough not to call my name, af ter finding I had treed the wrong man. But what hurts so bad about this thing is, I am such a stickier tor truth, and have gone and told tt.e worst one of the season. M feel like the negro did when the parrot spoke to him." "How was that?" asked the report er. "It was this way," said the caller, "a negro man went into a business office where a parrot had the run of the room, and most generally sat upon the back of a chair near the door, and was there the day In ques tion, The negro ventured in, and at that moment the man was In the back room, and seeing no one, the man naturally hesltated to move farther in; when the parrot In a nice smooth tone said; 'Have a seat.' Turning suddenly and politely around the ne gro exclaimed: 'Fore God, I thought you wus a burd.' The only way I can account for my mistake except that there was a one-armed man in the party and he told the story and I was told that that one was Mr. Home, and .fore God,. I thought It was Mr. Home, and have thought so all these years. But the tale I told. Intending to help some one discouraged, Is nil spoiled now. yet I want to repeat that I am glad mv name was not called, and the first man that wants to know who, tell him the fellow that wrote the utory Is out, and that you cannot recall the name."

I'nprevdcntei Slump in Price of the Most ArWocratlc Flower. Xew York Kun. In New York the niost aristocratic of all flowers Is the gardenia. Strang ers here have Wen known to form mistaken Impressions of women who were not In the least fashionable merely because they happened to be wearing gardenia. Men who wear gardenias with evening dress are said to take on a distinction that no other buttonhole flowr can Impart. This quantity Is, of course, expen slve and the gardenia costs In the winter usually 11. a0. When the del icate flowers are acarce and the stems are long and the leaves green and waxy the most expensive florists wet as much as 12 for them. They are so fragile that they last only a short time. A touch turns the ! pP,al brown and the flowers never survive. th. night. This sprlnir the gardenia has foe the first time become demoer&thj and taken its place In the baskets carried by tne street sellers of flowers. It can be bougt at 10 cents. Nevr be fore waa It to be acquired la this way snd at such a price. The reason was explained by a florist to The Sun re porter, "Fresh gardenias are in such de mand in New York during the sea son that they are very profitable," ne au. consequently an the grow rs are devoting a great deal of time to them. ' "When the spring tame all the greenhouses were full of gardenia plants sun blooming and likely to M,.m nr (there was the spring crop to be sent I awsv to the tnmmop rvanrfa .tnr which there has been so far no tie mand this year. , "This combination of circumstances and the fact that the persons who buy gardenias are out of town and the occasions for wearing them are alftd past left the large supply with no demand. 80 after they had been for a short ttnve In the flower shops they were handed over to th street dea4 era, and for the first time these high priced blossoms were sold on the streets for 18 cents. -The growers will see to It, how- pens aialn.20thlnf UHOJaOWr t Washington Post. "The locomotive w:-i3 to the hind what the steamboat wis to the river," said a veteran railroad manager. Some one had asked him If he was not glad to see electricity taking the place of steam In the operation of railroads. . ' "The business has had to come to it." die said with a sort of lamentation in the confession. . "So commerce had to give up steambbating and come to the railroad when etearn was the power on land. ' "But personally it fills me with re gret to see the locomotive going to the dead yard. , There was always soir.ithing human to my mind in the Iron horse. "It completed the picture of a land scape. If a man bad been rambling in a wilderness all day, and suddenly came upon a bit of view in iwhlch a locomotive waa making a whirl with a long train of cars, the scene was in spiring, , It made the observer feel as If he were on the rim of civilisation. "The iong. poll of smoke or the white cloud of steam against, the aky added to the picture. The electric engine can never make such a scene. - "Have you ever atood on tho plat form of a station when a locomotive thundered In with Its train that was an hour- or two behind . time? A It had the animated nature of a great horse that had Just come to the wire after a hard . and close race. It breathed like a sprinter after a long run. It trembled in its iron harness like something alive. "The electric motor comes to a standstill in an instant. It looks like something decapitated, anyway, "Do you remember a picture that was painted a ' long time ago called 'Flight of the Fast Mall?' , It was copied and brought down to the 4evel of a chrpmo, and then It was reduced to a cut, and used as an advertise ment. But It always had motion. It was a combination of power and speed, and It was as graceful' as a swallow on the wing. " "For many years In the offices of hotels and on the walls of barrooms In towns remote from the big cities there used to be seen pictures, of midnight races on the Mississippi or scenes of steamboats wooding up by moonlight. People from the back settlements gazed at those old -tlmjc pictures with as much Interest as the new generation visit the art galleries. "Gradually these pictures were tak en down. Railroad scenery took their places. The locomotive was the centrepiece. "Then poets sang the praises of the Iron horse. Ever notice how a crowd In a city will look at a moving picture .on a eanvas of a railroad train drawn by a locomotive The vltascope made It possible. You felt like getting out of th way when you saw It coming. "With all of its speed, with all of Its power hidden from the sight, no electric engine or motor will ever sat isfy the eye. And as for the feeling of safety, I shall never He down In a sleeping car, no matter 'how luxuri ous It may be. knowing It Is being liauled by nn electric engine, and feel (inlte as secure as T have always felt when I knew the locomotive was t work un I" front. Me for the old iron horse," JAPANESE BEER. The Chinese) In Manchuria Acquiring a Thirst for, It. The market for Japanese beer in Manchuria Is steadily growing. Its sale, however, Is as yet largely con fined to the Japanese and Russians, although the Chinese are gradually acquiring a thirst. The Journal of the American Asi atic Association says that the im-i portatlon through Dalny last year consisted of about 16,000 cases (forty-eight quart bottles) of Asahl and 12,000 cases of Sapporo beer, valued at 300,000 yen ($150,000). Of this amount about two-fifths was sold to the "Russians In Harbin and other people in northern Man churia, while considerable Importa tions into this region as well as Siberia were also made by way of Vladivostok. Japanese beers are nractlcallv all lagers, of which the two named most popular brands supply practically the whole of the Manchurlan mar ket at present. While the prices last year were irregular, owing to the unsettiea condition of the market, sale being made at the highest fig ures obtainable, sometimes as much as 50 sen (5 cents) a bottle, the present wholesale price Is about 25 sen (12 1-2 cents). Importers of Japanese beer expect that their sales during the present year will be fully double those of last. If Ameri can beer could be placed on the maraer nere as cheaply as the Japanese product, or even sllirhtiv nisnpr, u wouia undoubtedly sell wen, espociany in northern Man churia, t !llliH!iinrnTTTtrtttr H Our line of Loose and Mounted Diamonds is the largest in the State.
