Last night, or rather this morning,
at about 1 o’clock, one of the Ser
geants, riding along Delaigle Avenue,
was frozen in his saddle by a shriek,,
so loud and so terrible that a shiver
ran through the length of the street.
It proceeded from one of he houses
close by, and was followed by a quick
succession of screams, keen and ear
splitting—the kind that would turn
an ordinary listener's blood to curds
and whey. But to a Sergeant of Po
lice the sound of most dreadful cries
is the sound of music to a. circu3
horse, or the sound of a dinner bell
to famished boarders. He leaped from
his trembling steed and dished into
the house to find a mulatto woman
flinging herself about the floor and
beating her head against the wall —
all the while giving vent to strenu
ous. vital shrieks that made the soot
fall gently down the chimney. A man
was in the room with her, looking on,
dazed.
“Wife-beating!” flashed through
the Sergeant’s mind.
He immediately arrested the cou
ple.
A few intrepid neighbors had come
over to the house to see what in
heaven's name was the matter. One
of these was sent to telephone for
the Patrol Wagon. It took them all
to hold the woman till the wagon
came. She wag like a maniac, fight
ing and weeping, with the strength
of five men.
Finally, when she came up before
Opportunity Period in The Her

Opportunity period in the "Shower
of Gold For Babies’’ contest, closes
next Tuesday nisht at ten o’clock, af
ter which there will be a material re
duction in- the votes issued to candi
dates on subscriptions to the Au
gusta Daily Herald. Now is the time
to get the very largest number of votes
for subscriptions. You can enter your
baby and win if yqp try.
More interest has been and is being
manifested in this event than anything
since the flood. Every mother and
father of the candidates entered are
becoming worked up to the fever point
by their little ones’ progress In the
race, and the Contest Editor’s tele
phone is kept constantly busy answer
ing inquiries as to how the youngsters
stand. The little ones themselves are,
of course, largely responsible for this
condition as they have all selected the
prizes they Want to win and are after
their parents and friends to help them
secure votes from early moon ’till bed
time.
That bonus ballot of 450,000 votes for
every club of $30.00 on subscriptions
is keeping them hustling early and
late for business. 450,000 votes are not
to be treated lightly either. That num
ber of votes may mean that $500.00 in
gold to some candidate at the close of
the contest, and everyone interested in
the babies’ welfare should try to get
in every club possible before the close
of this period Tuesday night.

the Recorder this morning, it was ex
pected that some brutal light would
be thrown on he_r husband's conduct,
which had caused her awful condi
tion.
But it seems that he had not
struck her, or even threatened her.
It was merely the culmination of an
argument they had had, which had
begun at 9 o’clock that night and en
dured Tour hours. She had asked him
for a dollar to buy a ticket, she had
begged and plead, cajoled, wheedled
and coaxed, implored and besought,
and finally gone into a fit of the most
unparalleled hysteria.
He didn’t have the dollar, he assur
ed the court, or he would have given
it to her. He explained it to her
over and over again last night. But
she would brook no refusal. She
couldn’t bear the thought of not go
ing. She had set her heart on it and
go she would.
So you see What will happen if you
don’t let your wife go to the “Society
Vaudeville” at the Opera House next
Wednesday night.
And ladies, you now see how you
can get that dollar, just keep this
clipping and pin it on the wall. You
will have to go to the Vaudeville, of
course; nobody in town would be so
behind the times as to miss it. Be
cause things are going to happen at
that show. Desperate measures are
being taken. It will be an "Eye-
Opener.”

not only moulded us Into an almost per
fect military organization, hut he has
drawn us closely together and bound us
firmly with the chain of brotherly love,
forged from that indestructible ma
terial —friendship.
“And. now, Sir Knight Captain, in
recognition of these sterling qualities,
which I have but in a feeble wav tried
to express, in recognition of your loyal
ty, your enthusiasm and untiring efforts
in behalf of Company No. G, wo present
to you this token of love and esteem,
and in presenting to you tills memorial
of affection, it is our earnest wish that
you accept it, not for the intrinsic value
of the gift, but we would have you feel
that it carries with it the deepest feel
ing of love and respect, that one man
can inspire in another. And when your
brow, now flushed with youthful ambi
tion, shall become withered by the ad
vance of age, We would have you look
back, as to a bright sunbeam in the
shadows of the past, to this occasion,
and may tile memories that pass in re
view, be only those that will bring to
you pleasure and comfort."
Captain Cozart then spoke expressing
his deep appreciation of the gift In words
that were scarcely audible, owing to the
fullness of his heart.
Other short talks which proved of very
much interest were made by I,lent. W.

principles upon which the order is
founded.
