MONDAY, OCTOBER 5 WHAT A JMIAM WILL 1© W AUGUSTA IN A DAT "DEBT PAYING DAY” IN AUGUSTA STIES A POPULAR CHORD Plan to Make Saturday, October Tenth, a Day on Which Every One Will Pay Some of His Debts, Meets With Ap proval. The Stories of What Three Dollars Did in Au gusta Monday Morning. A Prize of $5.00 to the Person Who Makes One Dollar Purchase the Greatest Number of Articles in a Day. The announcement in The Herald Sunday of the plan to have Satur day, October 10th, as “Debt Paying Day" in Augusta met with popular favor. If every one on that day will pay a portion of his debts with the understanding that each person he pays pays some one else, and so on, there will be an enormous amount of money paid and everyone will be the happier for it. In this manner $5,000 could be made to pay $50,000 of debts and $50,000 could be made to pay SIOO,OOO of debts. The Rotary Club will take up the Idea at its regular weekly meeting on Wednesday and it is believed will give the plan hearty endorsement. It would be well for each business man to have a placard on his desk next Saturday to this effect: “Every dollar paid to me today will be paid out by me to those I owe.” It is really astonishing what a dollar will do in a few hours in the way of buying articles. Herald reporters started out Monday morning with one dollar each to make purchases from Augusta merchants with the understanding that each one from whom a purchase was made was to pur chase something for not less than a dollar from some one else. The de tailed accounts of the progress of those dollars will be found below and it !• really wonderful what was accomplished. $5.00 PRIZE FOR WINNER. Now, in order to get up enthusiasm in the plan, The Herald offers a prize of $5.00 to the person who makes a dollar buy the greatest number of articles in a single day. Start out Tuesday morning with a dollar and see how many articles can be pur-chased from the time the stores open until they close. The cash sales that will be made by the merchants with that one dollar will be found amazing. And if SI.OO can do so much in purchasing articles just think what it can do in the way of paying debts. If on next Saturday every man to whom debts are paid turns right around and pays some ol’ his debts the debts liquidated will be tremendous and every person who pays and every one who is paid will be feeling good. Try to pay at least a portion of your debts on next Saturday and when you pay a man insist that he pay some one else. Almost every one owes money and if every one would pay just half what he owes on next Saturday lie will feel much pleased with himself and with the world when he goes to church Sunday morning. Be sure not to forget to pay some debts Saturday, October tenth, which will be known as “Debt Paying Day” in Augusta. What One Dollar Did. Here is what one dollar did in an hour and three quarters’ time Monday morning: A Herald reporter went to J. B. White and Company and enlisted Mr. Gracey's support in the plan. The re porter purchased a hat and let the SI.OO apply on it. Manager Claude Garrett of the White clothing department went to Stovall-Pace Company and bought some men’s garters, letting the SI.OO apply. Mr. Daniel of Stovall-Pace went to J. B. White and Company’s grocery de partment and bought SI.OO worth of groceries. Manager Peter Drost of the grocery department bought -1.00 worth of chewing gum from the Verdery-Clark Candy Company. Mr. Van Dyke of the Verdery-Clark Company- went to John J. Evans and bought a box opener. Mr. Walter Smith of John J. Evans’ store went to L. Sylvester & Sons and bought some ties and socks. Mr. Sym Sylvester bought some fresh eggs from Castleberry & Wilcox with that dollar. Mr. Wilcox went to Goetchius Bros, and bought SI.OO worth of drugs. Mr. Joe Goetchius bought SI.OO worth of socks from McCreary and Company. Manager George Robinson of Mc- Creary and Company will purchase an article from some other store with that dollar. The reporter had to stop with McCreary and Company to get the story of the progress of that dollar properly recorded in Monday’s paper. The story will be continued. What Another Dollar Did. Another Herald reporter was given a dollar and told to go.forth into the world and seek his fortune, on the 900 block. He went first to Maxwell Bros, fur niture establishment and entered gin gerly and made his proposition. Mr. Maxwell at once took the dollar in ex change for a BRASS JARDINIERE, intended to hold a flower pot (see foot note), and immediately sent across the street and purchased one shirt from Dietz Bros. The reporter traced the dollar thus far without much difficulty. Dr. Dietz forthwith bought a bottle of something (price $1.00) from his brother, Harry Dietz, the proprietor of the Buffalo Case, next door. Mr. Harry Dietz at length decided lo send up to Band’s drug store and get twenty Santaella cigars. Dr. Land entered into the spirit of the scheme with zest and intrusted the dollar to the reporter to buy col lars for him at Swan-Edwardg ( a lit tle matter of three blocks). These duly paid for and sent up to Dr. Land. Mr. A. S. Edwards had to rack his brain to think of what he wanted for a dollar. Three pounds of coffee from the At lantic and Pacific Tea and Coffee Com pany was what he determined on, and the dollar, worn and frazzled by this time, was passed on to Mr. R. B. Vin son of the said firm, in return for said commodity. Mr. Vinson therefore sent for a dol lar’s worth of socks from Karr-Seigler Company, on the 1000 block. (It will be seen that it was impossible to stick to the 900 block.) Mr. Selgler then paid it on account to Marks Grocery Company, who in stantly sent it to Lonnie Stothart in payment for some cakes bought through him from the Chesapeake Baking Company of Baltimore. But the dollar never got to Baltimore It was combined with four other dollars like unto itself and sent around to Mulherln, Marks Company to reim burse them for a pair of shoes. It Is there now, In the cash register. The reporter is going to get on Its trail again Monday afternoon after dinner and see what further adven tures befall. That dollar did a lot of good this morning Through its alngle agency a lot of people have things that they want Instead of things which they did not want. (Foot-note: For sale, one brass jar diniere. Price SI.OO. On exhibition at The Herald office.) The Third Dollar. Another reporter with one dollar found that everywhere he went peo ple didn't seem to know on the spur i of the moment what they needed a dollar’s worth of. Hundreds of things, more or less, were suggested by the impatient reporter, but they had plen ty- of them all. Sometimes he would have to bid the first place he tried a fond good-bye and race over to some other store with the clerk and the dollar from the place where the las# purchase was made. Maybe he would experience the same vexing conditions at this second store and would have to try a third before he could find the place that knew right off the reel where they could spend a dollar and what they could inextravagantly spend it for. He got a late start, but here’s what he did: The Wise Dry Goods Company was the beginning point. There he bough: for himself a dollar shirt, size fifteen, and from there, in company with one of the clerks, he traveled down the line to Murphy & Farrar, where the dollar was spent for a big bottle of ink for the dry goods company. The dollar spent at Murphy & Far rar’s was taken to the Trowbridge Hardware Company on the other side of the street, where a dollar lock was bought by Mr. Farrar for the new stand into which they are now mov ing. The dollar spent at Trowbridges was handed to an employe of the store who went with The Herald man to Rice & O’Connor shoe store to buy four pairs of 25 cent socks, not to put in stock, of course. A man from Rice & O’Connor’s was sent In company with this reporter to McElwee & Thomas dry goods store, where socks again were bought, this time a dollar’s worth wholesale. McElwee & Thomas sent one of their clerks with the reporter out to pur chase two dozen spools of cotton, and here a little trouble was encounteroi. Some had the cotton but couldn’t pos sibly think of a way of spending the dollar, while others were “just out” of the article desired. Finally, after many wanderings and about thirty minutes’ time consumed the spool cot ton w-as located at the J. A. Mullarky dry goods store and there purchased. Mullarky’s agreed to spend the dollar with someone else and the money was left to he called for when the reporter was to resume his dollar-buylng Jaunt at 3 p. in.

Will Ergle and Percy Simp kinson Had Narrow Escape From Over-Turned Batteau. John Blackmond, a white man of about 28 years of age, of Brown’s Hill, S. C., and Buck Warren, aged 27 yenrs, the negro ferryman at San Bar Ferry, were drowned in the Savannah river Sunday while the latter was paddling a batteau, containing Blackmond anil J. W. Ergle, a barber of this city, and Percy Simpldnson, of Beech Island. Ergle and Simpldnson were saved. The ferryman. It is said, was en gaged In taking the three men from the Georgia side of the river to the Carolina side, when in midstream Blackmond, it is claimed, rocked the boat until it was sufficiently flooded with water to sink. It is alleged that he had been drinking. Mr. Ergle states that the account of the drowning as printed in the morning paper is misleading: that lie walked alone to Riverside Park, down the river just this side of the ferry, and from there to the ferry, where be for the first time met Blackmond and Slmpkinscn. He says they were brought over by the ferryman from the Carolina side and for some reason went back in the batteau with him. He states that he doesn't know them and did not speak to either of them the entire time. Mr. Ergle is game warden for Aiken county and his mission down the river Sunday, he says, was in that capacity. He says he had information that the law was being violated and that when he got to the ferry ho hoard shots on the other side, which he believed to be hunters shooting. Blackmond was an employe of Mr. Broom at Brown’s Hill, and is said to have been spending Sunday on Beech Island. Simpkinson works for Mr. J. E. Andrews on Beech Island. cur COUNCIL HOLDS SESSION ON MONDAY P.M. Dog Ordinance and Gasoline Ordinance Two Matters Be fore Council at Monthly Meeting.

SCHMIDT WAR AN AWFUL CHUMP IN Of His Baseball Career in tho Big Leagues, Thought Fred Tenny. However, Stallings Didn’t Think So. Now York.—"He enn’t get out of his own way.” The speaker was Fred Tenney, his subject a big awkward chump of a fellow named Schmidt and the listener eno George Tecutnseh Stallings. The time was last spring and tHo place, National League Park, in Boston. "This big boob never will never learn to be a ball player,” said Tenney to the manager of the Boston Braves. ’’Get somebody else who Ims a little chance to develop. It'll be wasted time if I try to imake this elephant a fir.st baseman.” Stallings told Tenney to do the best lie could, and said he was confident Schmidt would turn out all right if he only had plenty of the proper kind of opportunity. Big Schmidt -Charles J. is the first part of ids check signa ture—-was 27 years old last July, lie Is a Baltimore boy but never lias played professional bull in ills homo town. When Stallings was manager of the New York Yankees, hack In 1910, Schmidt was one of ids recruits, lie was noted for Ids bull strength -one of ills tricks was to hold out ills arm horizontally and lot little Jack War hop “chin up" on it—but the fans got to know him as more of a bullhead, or rather a bonehoad, from glimpses they got of him whilo subbing for Hall Chase at first base during a short ternn while Cluise was on tlie Injured list. As s Minor Manager. It will bo recalled how Htnllings lost hts job with the Yanks and then got lined up as a minor league manager in Buffalo. He took Schmidt along with him when tho latter wuh uncon ditionally released. Stallings landed Ids position as manager of tho Boston Braves a year ago last spring. He tried to get .Schmidt from Buffalo but was unable to until near the close of the 191.7 season. When he did get tho opportunity ho called Bchmldt to Bos ton. lie supplanted weak armed Hap Myers at the first sack and lumbered through the remaining games of tho schedule. Stallings was assigned to train Schmldy. Ho did not like his Job, however he undertook to do so in or der to assist Stallings. Tenney thought Schmidt was too old to learn any more—27 Is a pretty ripe ago for a ball player—and he al so balked because of the apparent natural physical clumsiness of the gi gantic German. He wanted Stallings to give hPm Homebody else to make Into a first baseman, which Stallings would not do. Worst Yet. We remember Schmidt on his very first visit to tho Polo grounds tlsiH year. Tho concensus of opinion was that Schmidt was about the worst, ball player ever seen In tho big leagues. Ho couldn’t catch thrown balls very weil, was a poor thrower himself, was Blow to shift around In the field, couldn't handle hatted balls, was a clumsy and blundering base runner, and was a weak hitter. The last views of Schmidt hero pre sented him oa a star of the calibre In the games against the Giants. Those who saw him could not boilevo he was tho same Schmidt that cluttered up (tret base earlier In the season. Schmidt has become a fine hitter, a keen and Intelligent liiiho runner, a good man on both thrown and batted balls, a good thrower himself, and best of all, a noisy, peppery, hard working rascal who Is constantly helping tho rest of the men to keep their "heads up.” A Stsr Now. Schmidt is a star now. Fred Tenny has made him one. But who shall say that George Stallings does not deserve as much credit ns Tenney for this big fellow’s advance? Tenney developed him, yes, but iie would not started on the task If Stallings had given In to Tenney's Judgment. Tenney brought out the possibilities In Rchmldt, but mailings "saw them first.” Hebrnldt’s chief virtue now Is hIH pretty good performance every task that comes his way, Ills making of practically no mistakes. He does not break Into headlines often as tho hero of a game, yet who can remember hav ing read of a game being lost by the BraveM because of Schmidt’s failure In anything? Hardly any fans outside of Boston even know that his first first name Is Charley. It Is not so much his fine work as his lack of bad work that makes Schmidt a great player —which he Is. He will be con ceded to be such by all hands before another season goes by, unless per chance, the coming world’s series makes the baseball world sit up und lake notice of tho fact before that time. We met Tenney during a recent vis it to Boston and spoke to him about Schmidt. He takes a grest pride In ills pupil now. "Schmidt la still In Ills own way,” said Teriney. “He Is & great first baseman In his own way.” CHICAGO GRAiFmARKET Chicago, Ilia. Wheat advanced on a rise at Uvnrpool.
