' ,At the 01 ening of yesterday mornings
session of Superior Court the jury which'
had been out ail of thepreyipus . night
on the case of Brinstfrvwho waschasfed
ith-eelling whiskey returned a verdict
of gtfflty. .. - ' ' i
The first case called was that of the
State V8 Jame NeajLcolored, who.was
charged with selling whiskey. In this
case policeman Fred Rowe was' the star
(-witness. - He told of passing by Neal'a
cafe near Five Points and of seeing
Neal sell O. Crispin, another negro a
pint of whiskey and hts subsequent ar
rest.' Several witnesses were put on the
stand by the defense to show that the
whiskey teen by the officer had been
left there by ' one of the defendant's
friends to be kept until he called for it
The case was - given to- the jury at 11
o'clock who after several hours deliber
ation returned a verdict of not guilty
and the defendent was released from
custody. , j
The next case called was that of the
State vs J. D. Perry of, the firm of
Perry Owens Shoe Company who was,
charged with conducting a lottery by
running a suitdub. Tne contention in
this case was that the defendant had
organized what is known as a suit club;
of which the members hai a chance of
winning a suit of clothe r by paying the
sum of $2 per week. The counsel for
li e defense, contended that by operat
ing a tuit club the defendant was not
operating -a lottery and that each mem"
ber of the said club was given the f UH
value for the money he had paid to the
company. Tne case was given to th
jury just before court adjourned pr
dinner and after several hours deliber
ation they returned a verdict of guilty.
Sentence has not yet been passed.
In the case of the State vo Lon Bell1,
charged with retailing the case wis
continued on account of I he defendant
who is now confined to the hospital.
The case of the State vs. Gerry
Hawk, charged with retailing took up
the entire afternoon session. The evi
dence in this case was practically the
same as that in the case of the State,
vs B. Brinson and which was published
in yesterday morning's Journal f hip
case will be concluded today.
No sentence has yet been passed on
the defendant Ben Brinson,
To The Public.
Having been succeeded by Mr. 3,
Leon Williams as Secretary , of the
Chamber of Commerce, I wish' to ; ask
in behalf of that. -organization , the
support of every business runn in Nth
twvn. There i a great future in store
(or this place and if v the Chamber of
Commerce is given the support of the
business men of the Jbwn, -there is no
telling how vast the benefice derived
there from would be.?
