SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25.
Big Negro Fair to Open Tuesday A.M.
Dr. Walker Makes Opening Address
There Will Be Some Excellent Races, High Class Agricul
tural and Other Exhibits and the Fair is Expected to Be a
Splendid Success.
Off with one fair, on with another.
The white fair ends, the negro fair
begins.
Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock the
gates will open for the seventh annual
negro fair; and at 12 o’clock, noon, on
Tuesday the opening exercises will
take place in the grandstand.
Walker's Address.
Rev. G. W. Harrison, one of the
vice-presidents, will preside during
the opening exercises and will intro
duce Dr. C. T. Walker, the orator of
the day. Dr. Walker has been the
president of the negro fair association
from the beginning, and under his di
rection from year to year the organ
ization has marched from .one success
to ’ another. The addresses of Dr.
Walker on opening day at the negro
fair are always looked forward to with
eager expectations and they never fail
to draw large crowds of both city
and country folk, white and colored.
Everything stops when Dr. Walker
speaks, and all roads lead to the
grandstand. This year, it is antici
pated that his address will be. along
practical lines, dealing especially with
the depressed conditions in this coun
try consequent upon the European
war. I want to urge as strongly as I
can all who happen to see these lines
to make it a point to be at the fair
grounds on opening day and hear Dr.
Walker’s speech. It will be well worth
your while. Special provision will be
made for the white people.
Races First Day,
Following the opening address will
come the horse show, which will con
sume only about a half hour. At 2 p.
m., on opening day, a splendid series
of trotting races will be put on. This
is the first year that the negro fair
has put on races on the opening day,
and i wish to call the especial atten
tion of the so-called “sporting ele
ment" to the fact that there will be
three days racing a*, the negro fair
this year instead of two. The races
will begin the first day, and the races
will begin every day at 2 p. m. sharp,
so that the racing card can be com
pleted in time to give the folks some
little time on the midway before dark,
as a great many of our patrons will
not have time to stay and take in the
midway at night.
The Week's Program.
Wednesday morning at 11 a. m., the
grand K. of P. prize drill will take
place. Wednesday at 2 p. m., horse
races will begin. Wednesday after
noon at 4 p. rn., the Baby Show will
take place in the woman's depart
ment. Thursday is football day, and
the game this year will be between
Paine and Haines, the same teams
which have played such scientific
games for the negro fair in the past.
Friday is children's day, and there
will be a junior football game in the
morning together with other outdoor
sports, and in the afternoon at 2
o’clock the third and last day’s races
will take place. There will be racing
ev,ery day at the negro fair, excepting
ajgrsday only.
Prices, Etc.
Regular admission will be 25 cents
each day for adults, and 15 cents for
children under 14 years. After 6 p.
m„ each day, everybody will be ad
mitted for 10 cents. The -gates will
open at 10 a. m„ each day and close
at 10 p. m. On opening day, Tuesday,
all children will be admitted free.
The same rule will hold good on Fri
day, which will be children’s day,.
Special provision will be made for
school children who are more than 14

Judge Hammond Gave Reasons For
Not Granting Mrs. Godbee New Trial
In Overruling Motion For New Trial, Court Stated That
Juror Durden, if He Made Remarks Attributed to Him, Did
Not Do So Through Prejudice to Defendant.
The motion for a new trial In the
Godbee case, which was continued from
last week for the securing of further
evidence by the defense in attempting
to prove the incompetence of Juror R.
R. Durden, was taken up again on Sat
urday morning at 10 o'clock, and after
two hours of discussion was overruled
by Judge Hammond.
Mr. E. K. Overstreet, council for Mrs.
Godbee brought frvrward affidavits to
prove that Mr. Durden, after having
been drawn in the list of Jurors to be
seeded from, made the remark:
"if I get on the Jury that tries her.
I'll sit there a week, or convict her. She
is guilty and ought to be hung.”
The present motion for a new trial Is
the third which has been made since the
conviction of Mrs. Godbee. The defence
has attempted by affidavits to establish
the 1... unpetence of three Jurors alto
gether. Including the foreman of the
jury which tried the case. The two
former appeals have been overruled.
Judge Hammond explained to the
members of the Bar present that in the
event of a juror being proved to have
personal animosity toward the defendant
he would not hesitate to grant a new
trial. Hut the above remark, be said,
allowed no ucl, personal prejudice. It
was the natural expression of a man
whose mind was shocked by the tragedy
rather than by the possible crime. It
was a remark made on Impulse. It Is
Impossible, the Judge pointed out, for
such a horrible tragedy to occur In a
community without creating In every
body's mind sensations of horror and
disgust. Primarily the tragedy presents
feelings of revulsion, and the mind
reaches conclusions in spite of Itself. It
Is natural t<lr a person, under impulse
to give expression to those conclusions,
and state them as positive convictions of
guilt nr Innocence, when In reality the
conclusions are only based on a first
impression which was Itself reached In
a moment of shock and emotional ex
citement. ,
Mr. Durden had no reason to wish

duced prices will have to be pur
chased at the schools and not at the
fair grounds. The public schools will
close at 1 p. m. on Friday, October
30th, in honor of children’s day at the
negro fair. Exhibitors are not ad
mitted free, but season tickets will
be sold to them at the grounds by A.
B. Berrien, assistant secretary, at re
duced rates.
A Word t.o Exhibitors.
All local exhibitors, Including near
by farmers in Georgia and South Car
olina, are urged to get their exhibits
to the grounds so that they can be
properly handled and properly placed
in time for day. Exhibit
ors in the woman’s department are
warned that positively nothing w'ill be.
entered for competition after 12
o’clock, noon, on Tuesday. If articles
arrive after that time, they may be
placed on exhibition, but the judges
will not be asked to consider them in
the competitive classes. It is abso
lutely necessary to make some such
rule as this for the protection of our
patrons and also to facilitate the
handling of exhibits and the getting
of them placed in time.
Additional Donations.
During the past week, the follow
ing white citizens have contributed
towards the prizes in the corn show
and agricultural department, giving
either money or merchandise: Mr. W.
P. White, of the Augusta Stock Yards
Company; Mr. Landon A. Thomas,
Mr. T. S. Raworth, Swan-Edwards
Co., F. G. Mertins, Maxwell Brothers,
Mr. T. I. Hickman, Hon. Geo. R.
Bombard, Mr. Warren Walker and Mr.
H. H. Alexander. The city officials
and the police department have also
agreed to render our association the
same invaluable help we have always
received at their hands. We are grate
ful always for the continued help and
co-operation of the leading white
business men and city officials in Au
gusta. Augusta is the best town in
the world for colored people. The
good white people here show their in
terest in and sympathy for the negroes
in all that concerns their moral, mate
rial and educational betterment. I
have been living here for 45 years, and
I would not live anywhere else. Au
gusta is the best place on the globe
for colored people.
Ready to Begin.
The Second Regiment Band in
charge of Noble P. Willis will render
the music for us this year as here
tofore. Tuesday morning they will
parade in Campbell to Broad and
down Broad to the Confederate mon
ument where a half hour's band con
cert will he given, prior to the de
parture of the special car for the fair
grounds. The special car furnished
by the Augusta-Aiken Railway and
Electric Corporation will leave the
monument promptly at 12 o'clock,
noon. The ministers of the city will
accompany the negro fair board on
the trip to the fair grounds and will
be the guests of the association dur
ing the day. Best any one of the ne
gro poachers may have been omitted
in the invitations extended through
the mails, I beg to say now that every
coloed minister in the city of every
denomination is included in this no
tice, and we hope all will join us.
Look out for the crowd Tuesday
morning when the band begins to
play.
Off with one fair, on with another.
The white fair ended yesterday, the
negro fair begins Tuesday.
Follow the crowd!
Airs. Godbee hanged If she were inno
cent of tue murder, and the defence had
ample opportunity of demonstrating to
Mr. Durden the fact of her Innocence.
His remark was made at a time when
he knew nothing of the evidence In the
cise, and was the expression of a con
clusion leaped at before he had ever had
an opportunity of finding out Mrs. God
bee’s side of the case. To say that Mr.
Durden was predetermined to convict
Mrs. Godbee. and in spite of any and alt
evidence, would be to say that Mr. Dur
den was a murderer. There was no
evidence to establish any such bias in
the Juror’s mind.
The Judge's remarks were addressed
Informally to the attorneys.
He said he would be reluctant to set
aside the former verdict, and authorised
the clerk to take an order overruling the
mutlon for a new trial.

Augusta’s Stock of Cotton is Rapidly
Approaching 1110,000 Bale Mark
There is Room Here For Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Bales of “Soft” Cotton and a Half Million Bales of Com
pressed Cotton---Farmers Urged Not to Let Cotton Stay in
Weather and Get Damaged.
Augusta’s stock, of cotton is rapidly
approaching the 100,000-bale mark.
Within a day or two it will reach that
figure and soon will pass it. There
have been over 30,000 bales sold here
already and Augusta’s total receipts
since the first of September have
been over 135.000 bales.
The re-assuring news comes from
Augusta cotton men that 250,000 bales
of soft, or uncompressed cotton, can
be taken care of in this eity and a
half million bales of compressed cot
ton. A bale, when compressed, takes
up about half the space that it does
when soft.
The Augusta cotton men believe
that the farmers who owe money
should lose no time in shipping their
cotton to their creditors to hold for
them, that is if the farmers do not
wish to sell it. The cotton men point
out that they must make a showing to
the banks that have loaned them
money and that the farmers leaves
them in an embarrassing position
when he owes money to them and per
sists in keeping the cotton on the
farm.
The farmers who owe no money
Contest For Naming the New Steel
Barges Closes at Noon Tomorrow
Hundreds of Names Continue to Pour in---Judges Will Have
a Task to Select the Most Appropriate Two Names For Au
gusta’s Handsome New River Boats---Liberal Prizes.
That the three judges who are to
choose tile names for the two big boats
which the Augusla-SaviannaU Naviga
tion Company will soon put into service,
and who will award the fifteen and ten
doliar prizes offered by thf company for
the winning names, will have no easy
time in making their selections, became
evident in the first few days of the
contest. In fact ever since the prizes
were first announced in this paper the
contest manager's desk at the M. & M.
Association has been fairly buried un
der piles of envelopes, each one having
a suggested name written on it while
sealed inside was the name and address
of the contestant.
Now, with one more day left before
tile close of the contest, over one thou
sand names have been submitted, and so
excellent are most of the suggestions
that the problem of selecting the best
two will be a hard one to solve.
Richmond a Favorite.
If it had been made a voting contest
the winning names would undoubtedly
be those of the two counties in which
tiie two terminal cities of the line are
located, Richmond and Chatham. In
fact the name Richmond has been sug
gested by no less Ilian twenty-six con
testants so far, while fourteen suggest
the nairie of Chatham. Evidently those
who have suggested these names have
had in mind the naming of future boats
for the other rountles bordering the riv
er, and in fact several contestants have
handed In the names of Burke and
Scriven.
The names of most of the Southern
States have been suggested, and even
some of the Western States, but nat
urally, with those who have worked on
the state Idea. Georgia Is the most
popular, with twenty-thvee sponsors up
to the last counting, while Carolina is
suggested by eleven contestants and
South Carolina by five. But In addi
tion to those suggesting Georgia are a
number of interesting variations such
as Georgian, Georgina, Georgeannah,
George. Anne, Georgette, and even Geor
gia Cane. Georgia Booster and Georgia
Duck The names Empire, Empire State
and Palmetto State have several en
thusiastic backers, and Dixie Is nat
urally a favorite with Southern Bell
Soubell and Southland running almost
neck and neck.
“Augusta” Ruled Out.
The name Augusta was ruled out on
account of the steamer already bearing
♦ hat name, but Electric City has been
proposed as a substitute, and Columbia
has a number of proponents, while sev
eral contestants have paid a neat com
pliment to a sister city which Is also In
terested in arranging a modern river
navigation service by naming Macon.
That the barge line is expected to do
much for Augusta Is Indicated by such
names as New Era, Progress, Relief,
Prosperity. Reality. Success. Welcome,
Victory, Hustler and Reliance, while Au
gusta's future Importance in a broad
commercial field Is suggested In the
name Panama which six aspirants for
the prize have given as their choice.
The commercial idea is contained also
In such names as Merchant. Manufac
turer, and M & M. while the Import
ance of the Augusta cotton mills has
lead to the submitting of such names us
Enterprise. Riverside, King, and Sibley.
In fact the great Southern staple Is up
permost in the minds of many contest
ants and finds expression In such pro
posals as C'ottoneer, Cottonian, Cot
tonola, King Cotton and Cotton Ex
change, while some rooter trfr the buy
a-ha|e movement urges the name of
Ten Cent.
“Oglethorpe."
The rule permitting consider.! tlon of
names of historical personages has nat
urally brought In quit*? a number of
proposa s, the name of Oglethorpe lead
ing with fourteen sponsors so fav and
Robert E. I.ee second with twelve,
while Patrick Walsh, Stonewall Jack
son, Joe Wheeler. George Washington,
Ell Whitney, George Walton, l-ong
street. Franklin Ftilton and Jefferson
are almost equally popular. Nor Is Ail
xusta's modern hero Archibald Butt be
gotten.
The Annette Kellerman fi m recently
seen In Augusta is evidently responsible
for such names as Neptune, Merman,
Marmald. and Manlllus, and possibly
also for some of the names of fishes,
though hardly for the suggestion that
one of the boats be called Shad. Per
haps It was some rheumatic dweller of
the Savannah rivet- swamps who sug
gested the name Huchu ami maybe It
was a visit to the Georgia-Carolina Fair
which produced the peculiar psycholo
gical effect that led some one to propose
Chicken,
The Herald and the Chronicle both
have a tiost of support era a a names for
tba big boata, who. In their enthuslaam
Ufr their favorite local pour rial a have
forgotten that altho more boats will
probably soon be needed for th«
river these two excellent papeprs will
b* side to satisfy Augustas craving
for news for many years to come, so
that only these first two boats could
be named for the city's dailies.
Of those who hsve shown much In
genuity In suggesting names, one well
wisher of the new enterprise thinks it
would be a good Idea to ceil it the Bee
Line, and ps-oposes as names King Bee,
Queen Bee and Busy Bee
Hard to Pronounce.
That the names Augusta, Savannah,
Georgia, Richmond and Oatham can be
worked up into an almost Indefinite
number of proriouncable or unproriounc
able combination* is shown t>y the
dozens of such inventions submitted, In
cluding such games as Au, Sav, Bichat
THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA,
can, of course, do as they please.
However, a note of warning is issued
for them not to leave the cotton ex
posed to tlio weather. There have
been large numbers of bales of cot
ton shipped to Augusta already that
were damaged to such extent by hav
ing been placed on the ground and
exposed to the rain, taht they brought
far less than what they should have.
If a farmer Ims a dry place to store
his cotton and will keep it off the
ground he can, of course, keep it at
home. However, he must Insure it
and pay a much higher rate than he
would have to pay if it was stored In
a warehouse.
Then, too, the average farmer has
all of his barns filled with corn, oats
and hay and has no room for cotton.
Of course, the farmer who owes no
one can do as lie pleases with liis
cotton and keep it at home as long
as he wants to, but he should guard
against damage from the weather.
In the meantime Augusta is able to
accommodate a great deal more cot
ton and she will unquestionably con-
I tinue to receive It in large quantities
and Richgeorge, Saugus, Gusavannah,
Savchat and Savgeorgo while the re
versing of the letters In the two ter
minal cities’ names has given Augusta
and Hannavas, and at least two students
of nomenclature have discovered the
posslbilit' of compressing the phraste
Augusta-Savannah Navigation Company
Into the euphonies. Ausanaco.
Altho the possibllttlea in the way of
names might be thought to have been
well nigh exhausted. t lie suggestions
are still coming in at the rate of fifty
to a hundred a day and possibly the
winning names will be among the last
received. The contest closes tomorrow.
Monday, October 261 h, and only sugges
tions handed in at room 401, lfarlson
building by noon that day or postmark
ed at or before that time can be
considered by the Judges.
If the Judges can canvass the lists In

cessful contestants will lie announced la
