rCHASLOYTE JANUARY 1 3, 19 f 2 1 ts , I ix Lots at Elizabeth Heights W tSsZiUl II nt iastest growing. mOBia.ti i uv:wv Talb on Trust Business T-et no on think that because his or h?r estat is small the American Trnst Companv would not car to be bothered with the handling of It. While It is pleasant ,t6 handle large estates, yet our most important work is in the smaller estates.. It is caring for the slim fund of the widow and the orphan, for the life insurance money that mar constitute the whole of the support of the remaining fami ly, the hope of the education of the boy or girl. . It is a real joy to use in this work our very best endeavor to safely keep and sa credly guard these funds, at the same time endeavoring to secure the hiehest income that safely permits, in order that they may be made to go as far as possible in accomplishing the serious purpose of supporting, maintaining and educating those dependent upon them. There is really a deep satisfaction in this department of our work, beyond the mere business side of it a feeling that we are filling in a measure the place of those who have had to lay down life's work before they would have done so and leave others to do for their loved ones what they themselves would gladly have continued to do: and that in conservine the small funds of the widow and orphan and aid ing them in the too sharp struggle for existence we are tiding a worthy and a noble work. mm ncan rusiio.

That was the point the impor tant question orgued before Recorder Smith this morning by Messrs. Plum mer Stewart and P. Marion Redd. The point at issue rose from the case of George Copens, a Greek res-v taurant keeper, who was tried before Squire W. D. Alexander for the viola tion of a city ordinance. Mr. Redd, who represented the Greek, appealed the case to the recarder. Solicitor Parker agreed to take a nol pros in the case, but Mr. Stewart interrupted to say that he represented the state in the case and that, according to the best authorities he could come across, the magistrate had jurisdiction in the matter. This brought on a lengthy argument between the two attorneys and numer ous citations of legal authority. Mr. Stewart held that the supreme court had passed on an exactly similar case and agreed that the magistrate had jurisdiction. Mr. Redd contended that the legislature in writing the statute, and in creating the office of recorder, had the clearest intention in the world of giving the recorder jurisdiction and recorder Smith was disposed to take that view of the matter. Mr. Stewart cited the recent famous case of the representatives of the Order of Owls, who were tried here and whose case was carried to th supreme court, in support of his contentions. The recorder agreed to continue the cr.se till next Tuesday or until he should have time to investigate the authorities on such matters. "I think, however, Mr. Stewart, that I will decide against you," said the re corder, "for I believe the intention of the law-makers was to give the record er the jurisdiction. It is an absurdity that the magistrates, say in Piceville township, for example, should have authority to pass on violations of the city of Charlotte, and I don't intend to turn such cases to a set of magis trates and constables until I am con vinced that the law-makers intended that." Pistol-Toter Fined. Walter Taylor, a negro who says he is from Winnsboro. S. C. was fined $50 for carrying a concealed weapon, a pistol, and was found not guilty of as sault with a pistol on Ivela Jones, colored. Shivering In . the Cold. Owing to the inclemency of the weather and the fact ;that there is only one stove in the city court room, it was decided that he court this morn ing should be held In the lobby of the old court room. . As a consequence several attorneys and witnesses stood for quite a while at the entrance to the court drumming on the court room door for admission. An officer had been sent up to advise all comers of the change of plan, but he missed them and the waiters at the door discoursed warmly upon the fact that, they were kept shivering in the cold without no tice that court was to be held downstairs.

While the govern ing boards of various leading Atlanta social clubs have been debating on whether or not to bar the Turkey Trot and the Grizzly Ber from future dances, along -comes Recorder Broyles and saves them from the trouble. "It's too tough for the Bowery dance halls," he says, and "It is cer tainly too swift for the respectable young people of Altanta." How the police will be able to stop it, however, unless the .clubs decide for themselves that the fancy dances ought, to be barred, is a problem that hasn't yet been figured out. ...

When Atlantians awoke this morning and poked their noses out of doors they were more in clined to believe in the weather man's prediction that the mercury was on its way to the bottom of the bulb.
