Where did Columbus Land?

H4rtcr's for November, has IL
clever article On The Bahamas which
says:
In all probability it was not Cat
island which C0lumbia named San
Salvador, but WatIing's island-a
smaller isle a little more TO the
southwark. The facts in the case
ate these: Contrary, probably, to the
general opinion, it has never been
definitely known which was the island
entitled to the honor: bnt about fifty
years ago, when historians we're busy
Sith the history OF Columbus, they
undertook to settle tie question 10y
comparing his journal with the i'm
perfect charts o. the Bahamas then
existing. Navarette fixed on Turks
island, which later iuvcs,ig at;on has
prov, TO be erroneous, wIrle Irving,
supported by the strong authority o
II mbodt, argued for Cat island ,'and
since then this has been general ~ ac>
cepted as San Salvador, and it is so
designated on our charts TO this day.
Bet the EngliShreverse,l their opinion
some time ago. and transferred the
name Of San Salvador TO Watling'S
island. and it will be 81 fOuud on
their latest charts, The reason for
this Change SENS conclusive. Lieu
tenant Beecher, Of the English navy,
proves conc!u,ively that Cat island
cannot be San Salvador, and that
WaIting's island answers the con
ditions required better than any other
island lying in the tack OfColumbus.
His two strongest reasons against Cat
island are that Columbus states that
he rowed around the Eorth ern end in
one day The size Of Cat island
maks this physically impossible
there, while it is quite feasible at the
other island. lie also speaks OF
large lake in the interior There is
no srch water on Cat island, while
such a lake does exist on Waitlng<

Last Thursday morning as John

skeleton Of grown Raar, covered
Ly some two feet of stone which had
been thrown in upon the body to keep
1t under the water. One Of the stones
Was so large that it was difficult 70 re-
move it. Evidently these are tue re-
mains Of some one foully murdered
The well is very deep aud has not been
used since October 1872, at which time
the property vas purchased by the
Town Of Goodson as a Small Pox Hos
pitai. How long since this dark deed
WAS committed cannot be told save
that it must have been done within
two years. The bones are bare but
the brains are yet within the skull
The remains Of the clothing indicate
that the victim was a man, and the
shape of the skull is that of negro.
30 one has been missed that we can
hear of, and the matter is yet dark
