Tired of Social Whirl; Seek Quiet In Europe SYRACUSE, N. Y.?On a strange quest Charles Hope Schentzer and his two brothers, Paul and William, of this city, have gone to Europe. Tired of the hectic life of the fast social whirl of the millionaire set, the brothers have decided to retire to a monastery. Thirty years ago their father was poleaxing cattle in the packing yards of Chicago. A rough old chap, he had no pretentions to society of the "boiled shirt front" clubs. But he had ambition for his new-! born son. At the time the infant was born the famous Hope Diamond was in the news, and Schentzer christened his son Charles Hope and went to England to buy the stone, which he intended to give the infant as a "christening present." ' | He failed, came back home, and devoted his life to his boy. Two other sons were born, and all three were given the advantage of education. A few years ago he died and left th three boys around $15,000,000. "Yes, we are sick of it all," Charles Schentzer says. "And we are trying to buy a monastery in Europe." Disorderly Conduct Lands Three In Court Disorderly conduct at a church gathering was responsible for three negroes being brought before Magistrate Ed Petar here on Tuesday. Magistrate John Allen sat with Magistrate Petar during the trial which terminated with Frank Durham and Percy Bullock being fined $5.00 and costs and $2.50 and costs, respectively, for an affray, and with Jasper Alexander being bound over to Recorder's court on "a liquor and concealed weapon charge.

In the back of the same book was given the boundaries of St. John's Parish, which was locat- t] ed on the lawn of Jones' Springs, B and the contributors to its support. a St. John's was the Established a Church and it was the duty of n church vestrymen to pee that it b was receiving the support of all tax n payers. ]'( Another interesting relic of the t] old days picked up was Branson's s' directory, dated 1877-78, and con- f< taining the names of farmers, the ii county physicians, merchants, si manufacturing industries and coun- ci ty officials. The record of the beginning of the Warrenton railroad p was picked up by one of the scrap g pile searchers and turned over to tl r? Dn^nrAll 13 V, IV, IVVUVYCU. Desire for more space in the court A house was responsible for these h books and records being thrown ti away. Miss Lucy I. Leach, county ei welfare officer, appeared before the P board of county commissioners at ci their last regular session and jasked d if arrangements could not be made ti whereby she would have more room d for carrying on her welfare work, g suggesting that the old books in her fi present office be removed to some w other place. After it had been point, b: ed out that most of the books were f< obsolete law books and old tax re- o ceipts, the commissioners told Miss Leach that they would endeavor to J give her more space by having some one to go over the old books and papers and separate the valuable from the invaluable, and destroy those which were no good. ] d Warrenton Gridmen 11 Plays Norlina Today ? * h Warrenton and Norlina will play o: foot ball this afternoon.
