After the Disaster, Com
pliments Augusta’s Work
Mr. E, M. Glddell, a travelling man
who I* at the Albion hotel was at
! Rgn Francisco and at Galveston a
! tew day* after the disasters that came
upon those cities. Mr. Glddell said
i that th*- conditions at San Francisco
I were entirely different from what
I they ar e here, a* the tpiake broke all
| the water mainit and It was impo»-
slbie to fight the fire.
At Galveston he said the water
| came In *uch a volume that the peo
ple did not have the time to prepare
that the Augustan* did. Speaking
further he »atd: "Taking the size of
the cities Into consideration and the
amount of damage done, the city of
AngUKta has recovered faster from the
effects of the flood than either of the
two citle* that I had seen before. To
a person coming to the city, unless he
came over the bridge, he couldn't toll
there had ever been a flood here.
A person who comes here finds It
almost Impossible to believe that the
people here have recovered so quickly
from the demoralized state that Is
bound to follow dlaaeters of that
kind.
"B Ih almost Impossible to realize
the .amount of work that has been
done on the street* and the canal.
From the post cards and newspaper
account* that I read before coming
to the City, I believed that the cltv
was a complete ruin, r thinl: that
great credit Is due to the city offi
clals on the way they have coped with
the situation.”

Prof. W. /. Thomas Expresses
His Views Of Modern Women
CHICAGO—Prof. W. I Thomas, of
the Unlveralty of Chicago la likely
to rwclvi* mou of the sharp criticism
ami censure which was visited on
him sisrerat months ago when his
book Sex and Society appeared. Ills
views of women, us expressed in that
book, aroused the Indignation of
many prominent women who dcclar
ed hts reputation a* a sociologist did
not prevent him from being unjust
to women.
In October issue of American Mag
azine, Prof Thomas has an arttete
entitled The Adventitious Character
of Woman," tn which he handles the
(atr acx without gloves and pole*
out th,- origin and cause of what an*
generally considered thetr foibles,
weaknesses and blandishments.
“There ts a basis of truth" he says
"In Pope* hard saying that women
have no character* st all" Because
thetr problem ts not to accommodate
them selves to the solid realities of
the werld ot experience and sense,
but to adjust themselves to the per
sentUty of men. It t* not surprising
thst they should assume protean
shapes ‘
lie points ou* thn primitive wo
man was practically a slave and beast
of burden, hut with the growth of
otvtttjv ton she gained eontrot over
man by coquetry.
Moreover * he asserts, "Man is so
affected h\ the charms of woman and
offers »o easy a mark for her maeh
(nations as te Invite exploitation ”
As (or the normal character of wo
men. the professor considers It mere
expediency rather than an Innate vtr
tug In fact, he asserts her morality
ts not her own. but was made for her
bi man This moral code which man
has Invented tor her, he says, has
brought to the front elemtntal trait,
which, under our moral code, are not
reckoned the host.
"Her morality ts a morality ot the

WIFE-BEATER
W. W. Mill*, a white man was be
fore the recorder Monday morning,
charged with violating the 460th. sec
tion. During the trial It developed
that he bad beaten hi* wife and that
she was In a serious condition. A
lady who was a witness said she was
at, home unable to appear at court as
she could hardly see and her throat
was swelled up where he had choked
her.
When the Judge asked him what,
he had to *ay about it he said, "Noth
ing, I did it." The recorder gave
him SIOO or 90 day* for violating the
460th. and bound him over to the city
court for wife-beating. His bond was
fixed at SSOO.
NEGRO UNDER ARREST
FOR BLOCKING ROAD
County Officer Gay arrested Gil
bert Griffin, Saturday afternoon for
being drunk and dlßordely on the pub
lic high-way. The negro wan on the
old Savannah road and had his wa
gon turned across it and when the
officer told him to move it he re
fused. Mr. Gay found it necessary to
club him severely before he would
come with him. He will be tried be
fore Judge Eve. for a misdemeanor.
It Can’t Be Beat.
The best of all teachers is experi
ence. C. M. Harden, of Silver City,
North Carolina, says: “I find Elec
tric Bitters does all that’s claimed for
It. For Stomach, Liver and Kidney
troubles it can tbe beat. I have tried
it and fine it a most excellent medi
cine." Mr. Harden is right; it’s the
best of ail medicines also for weak
ness, lame hack and all run down con
ditions Best too for chills and ma
laria. Sold under guarantee at all
druggists, 50c.
1 flatter the male,"
Like Bernard Shaw In “The Super
man." Prof. Thomas contends that It
Is really the woman and not the man
who does the courting.
Here is his opinion of the modern
club woman: The American Woman
of the better classes has superior
rights and no duties, and yet she is
worrying herself to death—not over
specific troubles, bu; because of her
connection with reality. Many wo
men more Intelligent and energetic
thnn thetr husbands and brothers,
have no more serious occupation than
to ptttj the house cat with or without
ornament. It ts a wonder that more of
them don’t lose their minds"

Concerning Charity.
The old woman lived in the second
alley in Greggtown. She was 79 years
old, her daughter on whom she relied
for support died Just two months ago,
j Once since the freshet she has re
| ceived provisions from the Associat-
I ed Charities.
On Friday, her daughter, the moth
!er of a large family, herself, unable
to help the poor old mother, walked
from her home in an adjoining house
down to the Mclntosh St. station, and
, applied for help for the mother—not
for herself. She was told that her
mother must come in person. Not
having car fare, the old woman walk
ed down to the station and w*as then
refused—until investigation, which
would be on Monday.
The tired old body, weary in mind
and hungry, it may be, wended her
way back to Greggtown and then
sought out the Deaconess, who had
, sent her and recommended her to
I the Associated Charities for help.
, The Deaconess, by the way is giving
her whole life, is working her homes
among th e mill people, trying to lift
them up—who can investigate them
better than she?
Finding that no aid could be gotten
from the Relief Committee, the Dea
coness secured private help, groceries
were bought and' tonight the old
grandmother does not go to bed un
l provided for or hungry.
| This Is only one case—many ohters
| might be cited, and makes us wonder
if Christian charity is not a rarity—
where too much investigation has to
,be done.
Hence is it. not better than some un
worthy should get food than that
one really in need should go hungry?
In the effort a truly noble, one
which the Associated Charities has
made and is making to meet the sit-1
uation, they are carrying the investi
gation so far that they are defeating
their own ends. In this particular
case and in many, many others spe- 1
eifle private aids Is given that ought,
to come from the public purse.
This question arises cannot thoae I
who do relief work out of flood sea-1
son be trusted to do it In flood sea- '
son? Cannot the volunteer home j
mission workers of every denomina- j
tion in the city tell who are worthy
and who are unworthy without going !
to the expense of prying “investiga- I
tors" who cannot judge from casual
I visits what the real situation is?
| " The Holy Supper is kept, indeed.
In whatso we share with another’s
need;
I ot wha t w e give, but what we share
For the gift without the giver is
hare.
Who gives himself with his alms
feeds three.
Himself, his hungering neighbor,
and me."

Editors Herald, Sir: An article
a pea red in Saturdays issue of The
Herald, that is somewhat misleading
m its tendency. I refer to that con
cerning Mr. W. J. Davis and the clos
ing of tile South Eastern Business col
lege While Ido not feel it incum
bent upon me lo write this article it
being no affair of mine, still I feel it
, “ e . 1 Davis to make explanations
hat touch certain arrangements made
between Mr. Davis and myself con
cerning the transfer of some 8 or
.» of his students to my college.
The article stated that certain stu
dents had complained that they had
pan! Mr. Davis in full for a course
and had been left them "high and
dr> as it were withoi* iris making
any provisions whatever for them. I
want to state here that I do not
know any ihing ot outside arrange
ments by Mr. Davis touching the dis
position of his cholars, but so far
as his contract with me is concerned
i lies** are ihe plain facts written out
and signed by each of us, now in my
ties* subject to any one’s inspection.
Those single U month-1 course stu
dents win, h d gon- —at 2 month*
lo his school v ere to in* given full
two months additional instruction in
my coll, g . free ol tuition; those hav
l;i;: gone It* months were to get 2U
months more, and thoae of 1 month
from 3 to 4 moths more free of tui
tion These conditions are neing
strictly carried out, and the young
ladies will bear me out in saying that
they have not pa id nte one cent fo*
this additional 2, 2>4 or 3Vi months.
There ar, three or four others who
wen* paying Mr. Davis so much per
month tuition, that were simply Dans
for red to m> college at exactly sane
figures In :n . charged in fall and w in
ter months by Mr. Davit; at his
school. Now in ju.-'ice to Mr. IJavls
1 want to state plainly that 1 haven'*
a single student, bo far as I ant
aware, from hi; school, that had paid
him up in full, in advance, for u.i
unlimited course w*ho is payin'.' nn
one cm tuition.
It glv.s me pleasure to make th
above -tnten.i nt eat put in a kind
work for Mr. Davis.
