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.

GA. makes staple our present property val ues and inspires with confidence for the the future, our own citizens, but likewise commands the admiration of (ho stranger and causes him to have conttdence in a community of such resolute and determined people. There is no city that I know of rich enough to make the tremendous out lay' of cash from its current income as is required for this extensive con struction work; nor would it he good business if they were, for posterity is to derive a large measure of the benefit, and should he made to bear its share of the expense; therefore 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 city- and the determination to build the levee no doubt did much to get two skyscrapers for Augusta which are now In process of erection, and other very material and very much desired developments will he seen in Augusta in the near future, povided, of course the bond issue passes.” esting features will folow this address and every member of the Reid Me morial Sunday School and all who have ever been with it, are expected to bo present.

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. SPECIAL BARGAINS 7-room two-story house, on large lot, 1500 block Walton Way. Price $4,500 7-room cottage, on 1600 block Walton Way.

JOSEPH IV BEASLEY 215 Dyer Building. Phono CS6B-W. Real Estate 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. —Mrs. Eula McCord has returned 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 finest woolens, made with snap and style. See ns, F. G. Merlins. 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.
