MONDAY, OCTOBER 19.
CETI COUCH, T© COMSEDE! SELL®© MMDS
SPECIAL MEETING OF CITY FATHERS TO
CONSIDER SELLING $250,000 OF BONDS
Want to Purchase Bay Street Property and Continue the
Levee Work. River & Canal Commission Wants Funds
So That Protection Work May go on.
There will he a special meeting of
the city council of Augusta held at
noon Tuesday when the question of
selling $250,000 of the $750,000 flood
protection bonds, which were voted
last spring, will be decided. At a re
cent meeting of the River and Canal
Commission council was urged to pro
vide ways and means for continuing
the levee work below Sixth street and
selling the bonds is believed to be the
best solution.
However, Mayor Hayne has had un
der consideration recently other plans
for raising the money because the
bond market, in view of the European
war and the lack of a good market for
securities, may not be very strong and
Augusta does not care to sell her
bonds at a figure much below par.
Yet, there are some who think that a
good price can be obtained for the
$250,000 of bonds.
CHARGE TO THE
GRAND JURY
Judge Henry C. Hammond Lays
Especial Stress on Out of
Town Negro Dives.
Judge Henry C. Hammond issued a
brief charge to the grand jury on Mon
day morning at 10 o’clock in reference
to their duties in investigating county
matters. The grand jury was assem
bled a month ago when a number of
criminal cases which were disposed of,
and the present charge was supple
mentary to the one issued at that
time.
The judge called the jury’s attention
to the enforcement of the game laws
as well as those prohibiting the sale of
liquor.
He remarked upon the number of
homicides which have happened of
Jate, saying that Richmond county was
suffering from a great deal of lawless
violence, due, apparently, to the wave
of unrestraint and passion which has
taken hold of the population.
The feature of his charge was the
stress which he laid on the places
outside the city limits where the sale
of liquor to negroes is carried on il
legally. He said that the evils of the
liquor traffic increase enormously
when it is carried on beyond the reach
of police protection such as we have
in the city; that a number of the
places referred to were operated with
out the shadow of a license; and he
especially called attention to the law
lessness which goes on in these places.
In conclusion the judge spoke of the
evil effects of the European war,
which, he said, were felt here in the
South more than In any other non
combatant part of the world, and that
they very likely would be felt for
n long time to come. “It is a distress
ful condition,’’ he said, "which affects
us all.” He pointed out in this con
nection the necessity for economy at
this time and urged the jury to do
their work as briefly as possible anl
at the minimum of expense to the
county compatible with a thorough and
conscientious discharge of their duty.
The grand jury at once retired to
their room in the court house and
began on the long list of cases which
will occupy their attention for the
next week or ten days.

A Pertinent Question.
The question has been asked, “In
what way are Chamberlain’s Tablets
superior to pills?” The answer is,
“They are more mild and gentle in ef
fect and more reliable. Besides they
improve the appetite, cleanse and in
vigorate the stomach, correct disor
ders of the liver and leave the bowels
in a natural and healthy condition,
while the use of pills, owing to their
drastic effect, is often followed by
constipation. For sale by all dealers.

HALLOWE’EN MUST
BE SAEE AND SANE
Must be no Carting Away of
Gates or of Doorsteps, Al
though the Kiddies in Augus
ta May Have a Good Time.
Augusta must have a safe and sane
Halloween. This is the proclamation
laid down today by Mayor Hayne.
And he means it with honest-to-good
ness faith.
In less than two weeks from today
the ghosts, goblins, imps and gods
will re-appear for a night of hilarity,
dance, popcorn eating and other
unique affairs.
There will he the same quaint old
parties for which the night of Octo
ber 31st is noted. Apple dipping con
tests, card parties with unique pro
grams and other festivities for which
Halloween is noted, will be in order.
Young America will be allowed to
have its fun, all right. But there is
a limit. Such business as carting
away gates, doorsteps or destroying
property, might get the youngsters
in trouble.
Halloween must be safely and sane
ly observed. Outside of that juvenile
funmakers can do as they please.

'DOLLAR DINNER'
MEET AT M. &M.
One of Largest Gatherings
Ever Had by Association is
Expected Tonight of Stallings
Friends.
“There's baseball In tlie air,
“There’s baseball everywhere.”
Enthusiasm abounds everywhere in
Augusta, in a baseball way, regardless
of the fact that baseball has now be
come a thing of the past. The gen
eral line of conversation being preval
ent: “A dollar dinner" for George
Stallings, why of course, there could
he no better idea. “A meeting tonight
of the citizens—all who are interested
—and his old school-mates, to talk over
the financial end of the affair?" “Good,
chalk me down, I’l be there.”
In spite of the fair being the center
of attraction tonight, all of Stallings’
friends are going to spare a few hours
away from the midway, and those few
hours are going to be spent in the
rooms of the Merchants and Manufac
turers Association. As the prospects
are, there will be one of the largest
crowds, and the most enthusiastic one,
yet gathered in the rooms.
Captain P. H. Rice, president of the
M. & M. will preside over the meeting
tonight, in place of Dr. T. E. Oertel,
chairman, who is away, being in
Washington or New York.
An answer is expected from Stallings
at any moment, stating as to when he
will arrive in Augusta. George is in
New York, collecting his many hats
and. etc., which were, won from the
Connie Mack enthusiasts.
B’NAI B'MTH DAY
CELEBRATED SUNDAY
Splendid Address on Conse
quences of the Present War
on the Jew Delivered by Mr.
C. N. Peidelson, of Savannah
B’Nai'B'rith Day was observed Sun
day in Augusta as throughout the
whole country.
Mr. C. N. Feldelson, of Savannah,
was the principal speaker. MaJ. A.
Levy and Dr. Leo Reisch also made ad
dresses and there was delightful music
rendered. The exercises were held
Sunday night in the Knights of Py
thias hall on Jackson street and there
were a goodly number of people in at
tendance.
Mr. Feidelson’s address was on
“Jews and the War.” There are half
a million Jews under arms in the great
conflict, mostly subjects of Russia, and
their splendid discipline has removed
the barrier which heretofore has pre
vented them from becoming anything
higher than just a private in the army.
In part, the speaker, said:
"To us as Jews, this great upheaval
of passion is peculiarly painful. We
have been taught to confer on help
lessness and terror the tenderness of
a higher law, but we see instead
slaughter and pillage and the use of
the iron heel. We were commissioned
aforetime to pour forth justice as a
never-failing stream, but we see in
stead the men governed by “the heath
en heart that puts its trust in reeking
tube and iron shard.” We had grown
convinced that, for nations as for men,
true greatness can not spring from the
degradation of others, but we behold
neertheless a world trembling at the
sight of brutal power, which has no
measure save the size of armies and no
outlook save increase of power.
"And we have the more intimate
pang of knowing that nearly a half
million of our brethren are under arms
The horrors of war are thus heighten
ed by the realization that Jew is ar
rayed against Jew, that conflicting
calls have torn natural ties apart, have
set Kinsmen at odds, and have placed
fathers and sons in hostile forces. It
Is one of the many ironies with which
this contest is fraught—a cosmic Jest
of the sort which Heine must have had
in mind when he spoke of God as the
Aristophanes of the heavens. The
starving Jew of Eastern Europe, as
though life already were not misery
enough, must feel the immediate shock
of invasion and find among the dis
turbers his fellow* of the tribe. And
a people, almost iramemorially dedi
cated to the pursuit of-peace must see
its youth. Its hope and its strength
perish to feed the ambition of kings or
to Justify the intrigues of diplomacy."

“FOOTBALL DAY” AT THE FAIR
IS BEING LOOKED FOR EAGERLY
Great Crowd Will Gather on Thursday, When the Academy
Tackles Riverside.
“Football Day” is being eageTly
looked forward to by the many local
followers of the game and the hun
dreds of others whose chief interest
lies in the fact that the Richmond
Academy eleven is one of the contest
ants. Then, too, there are a great
number who have watched with inter
est the career of Sandy Beaver since
ho went away from this, his home
town, and the fact that the visiting
team represents the school of which
he is now president, lends additional
local interest to the game. Mr. Beav
er is a graduate of Richmond Academy
and often takes occasion to claim, with
pride, the local institution ns his alma
muter.
Records of the Teams.
Roth the Academy and the River
side teams have played three games to
date. The locals lost to G. M. C. 25
to 0, and won from Warrenton High
by scores of 37-0 and 59-0. Riverside
tied Wofford 0-0, won from Hoys' High
20-0, and lost to Clemson Freshmen
6-0. This affords practically no
means of comparison ns none of the
teams played have battled with any of
the other teams. The Academy ad
herents base their confidence chiefly
on the poor showing made by the
Gainesville bunch against Boys’ High,
a team that returned only two of last
year’s regulars and was not consider
ed a formidable antagonist last year.
The Riverside team will have a great
advantage in weight, about 20 pounds to
“NO PERSON SHALL USE A BARBER SHOP
AS A DORMITORY" SAYS RECENT RULING
Has Been Considerable Duscussion Over Rules as Passed by
Board of Health at Last Meeting. Every Barber Must be
Free of Any Communicable Disease.
There has been a good deal of “Bar
bershop Talk” since the passage at
the last meeting of the Board of
Health of Augusta of certain rules,
laid down in a city ordinance, regu
lating barbers and barbershops.
Here are those rules, as passed,
which apply specifically to barbers
and barbershops:
No owners or manager of a ba--
bershop shall knowingly permit any
person suffering from a communica
ble disease or form of venereal dis
ease in a communicable stage, to act
as a barber in said shop.
No pers' n who, to his own knowl
edge, is suffering from a communi
cable stage which might be conveyed
to another person by contact, shall act
as a barber.
All barbershops, together with all
furniture, shall tie kept in a clean and
sanitary condition.
a. Mugs, shaving brushes, razors,
scissors, clipping machines, pincers,
needles, and other steel instru

“The Unwelcome Mrs. Hatch” at
THE STRAND Monday and Tuesday
One of the best pictures that has
come to The Htrand since Its brilliant
opening last week Is “The Unwelcome
Mrs. Hatch,” which Is being shown
today, tonight, tomorrow and tomor
row night.
Think of 6 and 10 cent matinees for
a photo production of this character!
Remember, after 7:30 p. m., a five
piece orchestra at The Htrand.
Miss Henrietta Croesman is scoring
a great hit in the leading role in this
picture, the first In which she ap
pears. But her long experience as an
emotional actress fits her eminently
to delineate the character of the wife
who Is divorced and comes back to
see the daughter that has been taken
away from her.
She Is really superb In the quiet re
straint and the calm dignity with
which she plays a part that a leaser
actress would have been sorely tempt
ed to clothe with fierce and fiery out
bursts of Indignation and tears of
righteous sorrow. But Miss Cross
man's understanding is too fine to give
vent to such melo-dramaMo methods,
and she Is Justified because she suc
ceeds In making the character per
fectly Intelligible.
, Following Miss Crossman’s lead, the

which there are a great number. The
Deoil Washburn shows have a splen
did aggregation of animal and other
kinds of shows that will appeal par
ticularly to children.
Every incoming (rain tomorrow will
have a load of children and they are
going to have the best times of their
young lives. The kids will see Just
lots of things that will interest them,
so do not disappoint your children,
bring them to the fair.
