What Real Estate Men Think of
the Bond Issue
It is probably of a good deal of inter
est to the public generally to know
what the. real estate men think of a
$750,000 bond issue.
The real estate men realize to a
greater extent than any other class of
business men just what the proposed
bond issue means to Augusta. Be
cause they come in contact with prac
tically every projective buyer of real
estate and because they feel the pulse
of the people generally on matters af
fecting real estate their hearty en
dorsement should have some weight
with every person who is interested
in the upbuilding of Augusta. Every
real estate i at, seen yesterday was
eloquent in h.a appeal for the bond
issue. There are several big deals
affecting the future prosperity and de
velopment of Augusta that are being
held up until the the resut of the elec
tion is known and should the election
not be carried many people of means
who have money to invest and want
to invest it in Augusta will probably
be influenced to invest elsewhere.
Mr. William Martin, chairman of the
finance committee of council express
ed the sentiments of practically every
real estate man yesterday when he
said: “I regard the building of the
levee as the turning point in the life
of our city, and every interest of our
people will be subserved thereby
from the least to the geatest. It is
a mighty undertaking that not only

the only- fair and proper way in my
judgment is to to divide this sum and
permit the present citizens and those
of thirty y-ears to come, to each bear
their proportionate part. This can only
be done by a bond issue.
The enhancement of values and in*
creased growth of the city under the
influence of this great improvement
(the levee) will represent a sum in
excess of the bond issue long before
the bonds fall due.
A tremendous impetus has already
been given to new enterprises in our

For days there has been a hue and
cry from the Police Department for a
woman. Don’t misunderstand; they
want a woman prisoner. Pressure is
being brought to bear on Judge Irvin
for heaven's sake to convict two or
three women.
They want somebody to clean up
the barracks. (Certain trustworthy
woinen-prisoners are always allowed
to live at home and serve out their
time by working at the barracks every
morning Instead of going to the stock
ade. In this capacity they have to
serve double time, but It is so much
easier on them (hat they would rather
serve sixty days at the barracks than
twenty at the stockade.) The women
have been behaving so well of late that
there Is only one woman prisoner at
the present moment, and dust is ac
cumulating in tho corners.
It looked this morning as though the
Headquarters would have a thorough
cleaning before another sunset, when
Charlotte White and Salome Brunson
stepped up for trial.
Charlotte' was a sturdy young wo
man, a cook of long and high stand
ing; Salome a wiry , fiery siren, not
unworthy of her much maligned name
sake, the late Princess of Judea.
They lived In the two sides of a
double tenement. (The same old set
ting.) Distance certainly lends en
chantment.
They were fighting about a man.
Charlotte told the court It was her
husband; Salome said he was not.
But, whatever ceremonies hpd been
gone through, he was at any rate full
of trickery an chicane.
Charlotte undoubtedly had the prior
claim to him. He seems to have been
loyal to her whenever any difference
between the two women came up, but,
nevertheless, he used Salome for his
own occasion. This was always when
Charlotte's back was turned.

MORNING WITH THE RECORDER
MISSIONARY AT
FIRST CHRISTIAN
Dr, D. O. Cunningham, Who
Represents Church in India,
Will Make Last Visit Here
Sunday.
The members of the Christian
Church at Seventh and Greene Streets
are anticipating a very happy occa
sion on Sunday, when Dr. D, O. Cun
ningham, who is their missionary to
India and supported by this congre
gation will make his last, visit prior
to his departure in a few weeks to
India, where, for seven years he lias
been the principal of a large boys’
school and has been an influential
factor in determining many lives of
the high-class Hindus.
Dr. Cunningham made his first visit
to Augusta about one year ago in
connection with the Million Dollar
Campaign Team, which succeeded in
raising one million dollars for foreign
missions among the Disciples of
Christ. The congregation was so well
pleased with him that immediate
steps were taken to secure him :ih the
representative of the Augusta church
on the foreign field. During the year
he lias been a student at Yale Uni
versity taking some work in philoso
phy, but very soon leaves to take up
his work in India.
Rev. Howard T. Cree, the pastor of
(lie church, has received a telegram
from him stating lie will be here on
Sunday and has arranged lor him to
speak at the morning and the even
ing services. Tills will 1m welcome
news to many who were so well pleas
ed with his personality a year ago
and the public is cordially invited to
attend the services. No special of
fering will he taken as the visit Is
pure lyan educational one.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank C. Battey and
Miss Jessie Anderson, of Savannah,
motored from Savannah yesterday
and will bo with Mr. and Mrs. Job
Clark for a few days.

from a very plasant trip up through
Lincoln County, where she visited her
brothers, Messrs. Claud and DeWitt
Fuller, and the family of Mr. Wyart
Chamberlain.
$25.00 and up, suits to order, of the

At length, however, he must have
discovered the danger lurking in tho
situation, and decided to rid liiitiHclf
of S;ilonic, for yesterday afternoon
Salome said she found under her door
a note from him, which she produced
in court, ant which is reproduced be
low:
old selone fool Yas i tolld that lady
and no help for It. better leevo an -
gusta dont i ant gont to beet hell outa
you.
(Signed) Mr and Mrs.
No name was signed to this stirring
epistle, and the Mr. and Mrs. was
scratched out.
Salome, of course, as soon as she
received the missive, penned a spirited
answer and thrust It under her neigh
bor’s door. Charlotte took exception
to this and tore the note up In front
of Salopie's door. Salome retaliated
by tearing up an even larger pieee of
paper before Charlotte’s door. Then
Charlotte, after a few biting remarks,
armed herself with a large Sea-shell
and went for Salome. They were part
ed before any damage was done.
All this information was gleaned
from the statement of Salome.
Then It came out, amazing disclos
ure. that the man, the cause of It all,
didn’t know how to write. He couldn't
have written the note. Salome was In
the habit of writing his letters for
him.
What in the world would you make
of ttiat? Perhaps Salome had written
the note to herself. She was made to
write before the court, but her hand
writing was not very similar, though
not unlike.
It would have taken all day, with the
aid of experts, to unriddle tho case.
The Judge suspended sentence on both
of them, with Injunctions to keep
away from each other, and above all,
to stay away from him.
