With the Recorder
There waa a full docket at the re
, corder's court thla morning. Most of
the cases were violations of the 460tb
section. The first case called was An
drew Valentine and William Lanier,
; both negroes. It seems that the men
had a quarrel while at work and
j Lanier struck Valentine with a one
pound hammer, Valentine retaliated
by rutting l/inier across the head.
The recorder considered that they
were punished enough and dismissed
| the case.
j James Meyer, a negro, was charged
with violating the 460th seetion. Sat
urday night James got on a jag. He
was given $5 or 10 days.
Rena Hobbs, a negress, was charg
ed with violating the 4Gotb section,
i The woman was cursing on the street,
Sho was given sls or 30 days.
Millie Holmes was brought In Sat
urday night In a drunken condition.
.She received sls or 30 days.
Kelly Baker and Appling Jones were
'■ arrested for fighting Saturday. The
case was dismissed.
B. K. Gardner was charged with a
plain drunk He plead guilty and was
given $2.50 or 5 days. The fine was
paid.
Alex Allbrlght was charged with
breaking the 160th and the tilth. Of
ficer Aiken arrested Allbrlght Satur
day night and started to walk him
to the barrack*. When they reached
No. 2 engine house the negro refused
to come any further and tried to
get away. The recorder fined him $5
ior 10 days for being drunk and dls
-1 missed the other case.
Frank Shinall was accused of
breaking the 460th section. It seems
that Frank started a rough house with
a woman and drew a knife on her.
She found an officer and Frank was
arrested. The recorder gave him $45
or SO days for disorderly conduct and
hound him over to the city court for
carrying a concealed weapon. Bond
was fixed at $l5O,
Walter Smith, a white man, was
charged with the 460th. The recorder
dismissed the case.

PEACHES SOARING
SKIAfID IN
AUGUSTA
. r: ■"
Georgia peaches have gone skyward
in the local market. An uninitiated
customer asked a fruit dealer Sat
urday afternoon the prices. “The
Georgia peaches are 50 cents for the
small basket," he said, "and the Cal
ifornia 40 cents the dozen.”
Dreams of an intended gift van
ished. The idea of peaches—Geor
gia peaches at that—selling at about
$5.00 per bushel. Grown up here
around Thrrison, and in a few other
places around Augusta, it seemed as
if the prices were too high, but the
dealer stated that they went faster
tnan they could be bought, meaning
that the supply didn’t equal the de
mand. The poaches exhibited for sale
were excellent specimens of some old
fashioned kind and a few of the late
Crawford variety. It is stated on re
liable autflbrity that these can be
grown easily around the city and at
great profit, of course.
But under the present system of
peach growing mostly just one or
two varieties—there is not much
hope for the late peach demand to
be supplied. The season is about
over and the watermelons are also
going, but the scuppernong is here
and apples and pears galore. All
are bringing good prices and there
is also a fair demand for figs.
Georgia is now regarded as a land
of fruit and the people of the terri
tory around this' city are beginning
to recognize the many opportunities
in this line of work. From early
spring until late in the winter frui*
and flowers prosper around Augusta
and year by year interest seems to
be increasing in this work.

introduced in the legislature by Hon.
George Glenn for the protection of in

would like to make a few suggestions
for a counter bill for the protection
o. innocent young women, namely:
If any man, young or old, bachelor
or widower, shall persuade into mat
rimony any unsuspecting female sub
ject of the state, by wearing wigs or
false mustache or dying either; cut
ting hair, using hair oils or waxing
end of mustache, shaving or using
bayrum or powder on face for com
fort, wearing artificial teeth, glass
eyes, cork legs, arms or hands, pad
ding shoulders of coat to appear broad
shouldered, or padding inside of trous
er legs when bow-lee-wd to mak*
them straight—from wearing stays.
fancy waistcoats, dropstitch, variegat
ed or rainbow half hosiery, tan or
white shoes, highly colored shirts,
ties, or colored border handkerchiefs,
smoking cigars, cigarettes or pipe,
chewing touacco or any
kind of liquors or beer, or gambling
in any shape or form; eating onions
or cheese, or by any other deceitful
means, as most of the foregoing men
tioned are objectionable to the ma
jority of women, especially when not
found out until after marriage, and
in such cases upon conviction the
marriage shall become null and void.
