CAPT. SHIPP’S FLOOD FISH STORY
A curious Incident of the flood is told by Capt Shipp, of No. 1 en
gine homo Capt, Shipp says; Thursday morning when the water was
at Its highest point, I was swimming down Elbert street on my way
home when I saw a large bream swimming ahead of me. I swam faster
and overtook the bah and captured it. I carried it home and it was a
welcome addition to the supper table. ’

Improved Apparatus For Fire
Fighting Shown At Convention
Chief Reynolds Back From
Meeting of Firemen Tells
Of Features of Great
Gathering of Heroes of
Conflagrations.
Chief Prank G. Reynolds, of the Au
j gusta fire department, is home again
! from Columbus, Ohio, where ho at
; tended the annual convention of the
National Association of American
1 Chiefs. He reports a most pleasant,
I interesting and helpful visit, marred
I only by the first exaggerated reports
jof the Augusta flood. He found ic
neeossary to return via. New York
to get home.
Chief Reynolds said the internat
ional association of fire underwriters
sent a delegation, to lay before the
convention the particulars of their
movement to persuade duty councils
in all large cities to enact rigid build
ing laws, for the more perfect fire
protection. The fire damage sustain
ed by insurance companies in the last
two or three years has been so great
that It has come to the question where
something will either have to be done
to cut down the extent of fire or
insurance companies are to be forced ;
cut of business.
One of the features of the conven-1
tion was the demonstration made by
a manufacturer of the new auto fire
engine, which drives Itself and fire
men to a Are, shifts its power to tbo \
pump appartus and operates the regu
lar steamer. It generates power as |
effective as a regular second grade j
fier engine. Chief Reynolds says in
his opinion these auto fire apparatus
will eventaully be adopted in every
city. They are already in use In the j
big cities of America.
Tlie new hydraulic aerial truck 1s ,
another wonderful Improvement in
fire fighting apparatus. One man is
able to elevate, turn and lower an 85-
foot ladder that formerly required the
attention of six or eight firemen, and
one of the trucks can lie run up in
12 seconds. Conclusive tests of its
ability were made by the manufac
turers.
In the larger cities of America, dur
ing th" pagt 12 months, new systems
of high pressure water power have
been installed. These special mains
furnish a pressure of 300 to 350
pounds, without the additional power
of steamer engines. The pipes are
specially constructed, hose are tested
to a pressure of 500 pounds, and a
special alarm system is connected
with the waterworks headquarters, so
the pressure can be turned on aud
maintained during a fire. With a
pressure of 350 pounds rushing
through a hose nozzle, no man could
handle it. Therefore, specially con
structed straps and braces are used.
Chief Reynolds says a fairly good
pressure is obtainable now, since the
Hood, by turning on the water dur
ing a fire. He says every man in
the department Is doing his duty
welt, and he is able to cope with any
ordinary situation.
REV. DIXON’S TALK
SUNDAY NIGRT
His Subject Was “Hidden
Treasures,” Well Handl
ed and was Appreciated.
On thn eve of the fall revival at St.
Luke church. Rev. R M. DUuu last
night preached a splendid sermon,
using for his subject “Hidden Treas
ures." After reading several parables
uttered by Christ, he began by using
the gold fever of the forties to show
to what extent man will go for the
wealth and comfort of this world, fac
ing alt kinds of dangers and priva
tions to secure the treasures hidden
by nature that they may have peace
and comfort in later life. So few will
seek that priceless treasure that not
only gives peace, comfort and pleas
ure here on earth, and an eternal
home of happiness and peace and joy
in th 0 world to come.
People usually Judge as they see,
and too often feel secure because
they are members of the church, but
it i* no hard to get them to see them
selves as others see them, or rather
as (lod sees them. Several apt illus
trations were used to round off the
discourse which wcr 0 well put In.
AUGUSTA CHAPTER
OF RED GROSS
PLANNED
The Augusta chapter of the Red
Cross will probably be organized
within the next two or three .lays as
the result of the Georgia Red Cross
and the National Red Cross societies
working for the aid of the flood suf
ferers during the past week. Mr. T.
I. Hickman has been asked to serve
t* president of the local organization
and It Is quite probable that he will
actively engage In the work without
delay.
Judge Henry McAtpin, of Savannah,
who is president of the Georgia or*
anization. has been authorized to
draw on the national association for
i2<X> to bp used for the re’.ef of Au
gusta sufT. rers from the disaster.
The systematic manner In which
he Red Cress handh » such work w ill
“o doubt add greatly to helping the

lias of an active nature.
HUNDREDS IT
GAMP MEETING
——
Dr. J. W. Hcidt Preached
On Child Membership—
Miss Emma Gary on
Chinese Missions.
There were several hundred Augus
| tans present at the services at the
| Richmond camp grounds Sunday. The
day was ideal and the meetings were ;
j enjoyed by all who attended. Rev. 1
A. M. Pierce preached ,at the mom- ,
ing service. The subject of his text
was; “Isaiah’s Vision." The text was |
well chosen and Mr. Pierce delivered 1
the sermon in his usual impressive l
style.
Dr. J. W. Heidt, presiding elder of
the Augusta district, preached the 11 j
o’clock sermon. The subject was:
"The Influence of Child Membership." [
This was one of the most forcible I
j sermons heard in this section for
. some time and it impressed on the!
' congregation the importance of hav
ing the children baptized. Dr. Heidt
showed this in be one of the funda-j
, mental principles of the church.
Missions in China.
At the 3 o’clock service Miss Emma
■ Gary, a missionary, who has just re- i
turned from China, spoke. Miss Gary
has been in China for ten years and
a half, and during that time she has
been a teacher in the University of j
Sou Chow in this school the chit
dren of the best people of the land '
are educated. Sim was also teacher
in the families of the officials of the
empire. Miss Gary gave one of the
best lectures on China that has ever
been heard in this section. Her lec- '
ture was different from the usual
run of lectures and was therefore
more interesting. Miss Gary s aid the
Chinese had four great virtues: "They
are a peaceable, industrious, economi
cal, and learned people.’’ The stu
dents of China are some of the great
est in the world. They learn by heart
books that are as large as our Bible.
Miss Gary said: “The people are
looking to the United States to save
them. They respect and believe in
the United States where they do In
no other country. One of the great
officials of the empire told me the
cause. He said: ‘At the time of the
advance of the allied army on Pekin, j
the great nations of the world had
decided to cut fhina in parts and to
have the parts for their territories.
The United States put a stop to this i
and refused to accept any portion of
the proposed division, and this, with
our other dealings with your country, j
has learned us to place confidence in
it.' ’’
Miss Gary has a pair of shoes that
arc about 4 inches long and about an
inch wide. She said: “These shoes
were given to me by their owner:
she is a woman about 35 years old
and is the mother of two children.’’
An Epworth Banner.
Miss Gary showed a large satin
banner with Chinese writing on it.
She said that it was the banner of
an Epworth League in Chica. Miss
Gary spoke of the silks and satins of
China: "They are the finest in the
world and are washable. The goods
are so durable that the clothes can be
worn for several years. The people
of China can be told by the way they
dress. The upper classes have silk
and saiiu garments. Tho middle
classes wear wool garments, and the
poor wear cotton. All classes wear
cotton in the winter. The Chinese
do not have fires In winter they wear
seven skirts.
These garments ar e heavily padded
with cotton and the wearer seems as
broad as he is tali. There has been
talk of, in case of war with the Jap
anese. giving up the Philippines, I
say. ‘No.’ China is on good terms
with this country and when the gates
are really open to the commerce of
the world she will use our cotton bv
the million bales and our rire and
other necessities they are obliged to
have, in lik, quantities. The Philip
pine Islands will be our station in the
East, and from there we can send our
goods into China.”
China’s Two Curses.
Miss Gary also has some pictures
that were taken in China and an Idol.
The idol Is a representation of Bud
dha. It is about 12 inches high an.l
is made of a white substance.
"Polygamy and opium are two of
the curses of China. The Chinese
children are mated sometimes at birth
A rich man marries and is noi blessed
with a male heir, he marries again,
and sometimes the third time to get
a wife, who will give him a male
heir. The poor classer are unable to
do this as the bride must be boueht
front her father. The Chinese wor
ship their ancestors and as the male
children preserve the family line the,-
are always wished for. I had a cook
once who told me she had done awa
with two or three girls. I was hor
rifled and asked h?r why. Phe said
they were no good I explained to
her and she said- “Well. 1 might as
well strangle them r.s to let them
starve later on; k Is merciful to
them."
