WILL MAKE APPORTIONMENT
Board OF Education Will Meet Monday
Night.

The county board Of education will
meet tomorrow night, at which time
they will make the apportionment for
public schools in New Hanover for the
ensuing six months. They will derive
some three or four thousand dollars
more from the county this year than
last and this VIII aid them cGnsidera-
bly,. The city has agreed to give $1,000
per year, payable in installments of
$500 per month, but not to begin be-
fore next June, as that is the time the
new fiscal year begins.
1t is always a serious problem with
the board of education to plan how to
run the schools with the small amount
Of cash in the treasury. Each year
people are beginning to believe more
and more in education which means
that the attendance at the schools is
rapidly increasing. This increase has
not been cared for by all adequate in
crease in the appropriations to the
schools and consequently it is almost
impossible to maintain the schools as
they should be. This fact is especial
ly true of the city schools. When the
city's appropriation becomes available
it will aid materially.

APPEAL OF THE MUTINEERS
TRANSCRIPT of Record Sen to Attorney
CeneraI-COvers 1913 Typewriter
Pages.

The transcript of record in the NUT
my trial was forwarded to the attorney
general in Washington yesterday by
Mr.. S. P. Collier. clerk Of the United
States court at Wilmington. There are
153 typewriter pages of the record
and the work is neatly done.
The appeal is only as to Robert
Sawyer and Arthur Adams, and the
hearing before the United States SUI
preme court is set for January 18th.
1t is very likely that the case will be
heard on this date but it may be con-
tinued. The date of execution is Jan
uary Goth, and the hearing could not
be continued long without the Presi-
dents granting a respite of a few days.
The mutineers are represented by
Mr.. George ROuntree and Mr.. Geo. l..
Peschau. District Attorney Harry
Skinner will appear before the supreme
court on behalf of the government. In
an appeal of this nature the attorneys
are given but a few minutes to address
the court as the findings are on the
record and argument on the subject is
useless.
The mutiny trial was begun in the
United States court in this city or No
vember 4th and consumed about a
week. A full account of the trial was
given in The Messenger so the readers
of this paper are familiar with every
phase of the ase.

on January 18th.

E. Jaminski & Son, of New York, on
yesterday brought suit against Elias
Boufarah, an Assyrian who conducts
q store on Front street. to recover
$3.50 which was claimed for goods
purchased. The case was heard before
Justice Furlong who gave judgment
for the amount asked, and Mr.. Louis
Goodman, attorney for the New York
firm, at once asked for an execution.
Boufarah stated that he wished to
exempt what was allowed him under
the law and a board of appraisers con
sisting of Messrs. S. Seigler, Fl. W.
Howell and ". T. Penny were ap-
pointed. They placed the value of the
goods at BOufarah's place Of business
at S673.15, S17315 more than the ex-
emptiOn. The goods have been adver-
tised and will be sold at public auction
on January 10th, unles a settlement is
effected in the meantime.

NEW DREDGE FOR THE BAR
Is of the Very Latest Model n Far
Larger Than Other Cape Fear
Dfedge.

The dredge Delaware is expected to
arrive at Southport either this after
noon or Monday from Sparrow's Point.
The Delaware will be stationed at
Southport for work on the Cape Fear
bar and takes the place OF the dredge
Cape Fear which 1t the present time
is at work on the Beaufort bar.
The dredge Delaware was built un-
der the supervision of those in change
of the Philadelphia district and vas
intended to be used in that district
but the war department decided that it
would be advisable To place her at the
Cape Fear BAR This will be the first
work done by the Delaware and she
is perfectly new. The dredge is of the
very best model used by the govern
ment and is far larger than any dredge
heretofore stationed on the Cape Fear.
The work at the bar will be greatly
facilitated by having an improved
dredge to work with.
The dredge On the portion of the
river above Southport is the Ajax,
which has been on the river for some
time.
Work Of repairing New Inlet and
Swash defense dams is going on stead
lily but with the exception of this no
new work IS being done on the river
other than the regular work dredging
the channel.

One OF the veteran lawyers OF Bur-

F. II. Kelsey OF Lowell. in the Boston

case in the Chittenden county court
he called as a witness a stylishly
dressed young man who parted his
hair in the middle. practice that
used 10 be regarded as Indicative OF
a dude" The young man, however,
gave his testimony in plain, straight
forward manner and resumed his seat.
When the argument came TO be
made by the counsel opposed 70 Mr.
Spalding, reference was made in q
peculiarly cutting manner TO the fop-
pish looking witness who parted his
hair ,n the middle.
on rising TO reply. Mr.. Spaldinl
said: Il fail to see how the fact thai
this young man parts his hair in The
middle has any bearing in this case
He certainly has a right to part hi
hair in the middle, and he parts it ex
actly as my brother on the other sid
does his. only" he added. pointing 4
the perfectly bald head of the oppos
ing lawyer, che doesn't part 1t quit
