Want to Be Let, Alone.

The Dominion government is putting
on great pressure just now in the en-
deayor to force the Manitoba govern
ment into compromise on the school
law. Principal Grant, the leading Pres
byterian divine in Canada, has visited
the province to study the situation and
has written series Of letters on the
subject, which are evidently designed
to influence public opinion in the East
in favor of the attitude Of the federal
executive. He has written SO strongly
that the provincial government organ
here has been inspired to give utterance
to the following warning: :....
1--WE alone can settle the question; we
alone know the circumstances; we alone
are concerned with the result. Then
must the Dominion keep it's hands off.
We are here to live and to prosper. We
have clearly in our minds the first con-
dition of prosperity. We are right as
regards that condition, we must fashion
our own destiny. Let us alone. In the
free air of this Western land we would
have free, happy people. Never must
we permit the existence OF that dual
headed monster that has forced all laws
in the east to be based on compromise
rather than on justice. Let Us alone.
Let us be a united people; let us assert
with all our might and yet with all
kindness, the principle Of equality of
opportunity

Had Altered the Diary

The pages in his diary where refer
ence is made to these important Incl
dents on which he gave testimony have
been altered, it is alleged, to agree with
his testimony. This is SO palpable that
the writer Of the pamphlet had photo
graphs taken Of the pages in question,
and he promises that they will create a
sensation when published. This is cited
as another instance Of the extremes to
which the anti national school faction
have gone in their attempt to prove that
they were deprived of a constitutional
right by the abolition OF separate
schools - i.

WINNIPEG, Man, Sept. "a "A prom
inent lawyer and politician Of this city
has just completed a pamphlet on the
school question, dealing with the whole
phase Of the controversy from the time
of the union Of Manitoba with the con
federated provinces. In searching for
historical material, he was given ac-
cess to papers and documents at the
Catholic archbishop palace at st. Bon
iface. There he came across the diary
Of one of the chief witnesses for the
Catholics in the litigation Of the past
few years Certain statements were
made by this witness that We're not con
sidered to be consistent with the true
facts, and evidence was subsequently
adduced to show that he was, to say the.
least, very much mistaken.

THE WORK AT THE THEATER.
Supt. KessIer Demonstrates That He
Is Not Afraid of the SpOOks.


Is Not Afraid of the spOOks.
The work of tearing out the old theater
is progressing very favorably and it is
expected that the property will be ready
in a day or two for the work of construc-
ton to begin.
Supt. George Kessler has kept a force
of about twenty hands at work on the
dismantling during the last week, and
Architect Frank Cox is expected down
within day or two to start the work of
construction off
Supt. Kessler spends his nights in the
old building using the up stairs dressing
room on the Hull and Drayton street cor
ner This is mentioned as a matter of in
terest, because Manager Johnson said
sometime ago that he had never been able
to get anyone to sleep in the building on
account of its ghoulish reputation. He
said he tried time and again to get some
one to sleep there, but an effort was all he
ever got out Of anyone. All of those who
had anything to do with the old building
persisted in the statement that 1t was
haunted and none of them wanted to
stay there.
Every now and then an old programme
OF some play winch TOOK place place at
the theater some fifteen, twenty or thirty
years ago comes to light. In the season
of 1S74-75 the programmes were published
in a small paper called Every Evening"
One of the programmes is dated Thurs
day, Dec. II, 1874, and gives an account
of the production of the Marble Heart"
by E. b. Browns dramatic company. The
principal actor was J. II. Huntley, but In
the entire list there are none of any par
tlcular reputation to-day.
Those were days when travelling was not
as easy as 1t is now and a company usual
ly made from three days to weeks stand
in a town. The other programme is in
the same publication dated Thursday, Feb.
4, 1873, and gives an account of Edwin
Adams dramatization of Tennysons beau
tiful Enoch Arden, in which Adams was
the star. Beneath the cast of characters
is given a synopsis of the play. The Ev-
cry Evening was published at the office of

e. p. DAVIS LOSES A LEG.
He Fell While Trying TO Jump on "A
Moving Train at Tybee.

Mr.. T. p. Davis, a well-known young
man employed at the Office of Agent r. G.
Trezevant on the Central railroad wharves,
met with serious and painful accident
about 1880 o'clock last night as the Tybee
train was leaving the island.
He went down with one or two friends
on the afternoon train, and was standing
on the platform in the rear of the Hotel
Tybee, waiting to take the up-coming
train. One of his friends with him
jumped on the train as it came up to the
platform without waiting for it to stop.
Mr. Davis thought to do likewise and
reached out for the railing on the other
end of the car as it came along.
The train moves rather rapidly up to
the platform and stops by the means of
air brakes. Davis caught the railing with
one hand, but missed the other hold and
fell down between the platform and the
railroad track. A crowd was standing
around at the time, and Charley Won
Camp, who was nearby, caught hold of
his arm to pull him out of the way
of the car wheels. This undoubtedly
saved Davis life though his right leg
was caught under the wheel and almost
severed just above the ankle.
Davis was taken upon the platform I'M
til a stretcher could be brought. DR.. T..
II. Nichols was called to attend him and
administered opiates to relieve the pain
until he could be brought to the city for
treatment. Davis retained his conscious
ness, and though the wound was a very
painful one, he stood it well.
The train was held until the injury
could be temporarily fixed, when he was
brought up to the city and taken to the
Savannah hospital for treatment. The
opinion last night was that he would lose
his leg between the ankle and the knee
His effort to get on the moving train seems
to have been the cause of the accident
Davis is about "a years old. He is from
Montgomery, Ala, and has been in this
city about two years in the employment
of the Central railroad, first in the billing
| office and later on the wharves.

cuYLER swAMP.s MONSTERS.
Gigantic Beasts ard Reptiles That
Once Inhabited IL.

The finding Of the molar tooth Of a mas
todOn OF some such antedfluvian animal in
the Blandford canal in Estiil park has led
TO considerable speculation among those
who have geological turn. and the fur
tier digging Of the canal will. no dosbt,
be watched with interest to see il any
other parts of the animals Of aeons Of ages
ago are unearthed.
The tooth, a description of which has
been given by the Morning News, was
found alone, which has led Maj. Blandford
TO the conclusion that it was lost in a COM
bat between a couple of those Old-time
beasts, which might have been mortal
one, for about a mile and a half further
up the canal, he found a short time ago
an enormous vertebra. II was only imper-
sectly fossilized. but its form was well re-
tained, and ii was more than eight inches
across. This he has on exhibition at his
Office. 1t is supposed that after the fight
in which his mastodonic highness lost his
tooth further down the canal, he walked
up through the swamp, and died there
about 1900 year ago, the single Yertebra
being all that was left to tell the story.
1t was in the latter part of the quarter
nary period, sometime after this memora-
bic event that the mastodOn came on and
took up his quarters in Cuyler swamp
Scientists would say perhaps that 1t was
about 200 or 1900 years later, cot mind
ing the addition OF few thousand years
when it comes to estimating a geological
period. They cut hole in the ground
get out a cross section of the earth, and
how long ago the animal lived depends to
a certain extent on how far down they
find the fossil. Cuyler swamp being
nearly down TO the sea level may be in
this way considered below the surface of
the earth as compared with higher alti-
tudes. Along with the mastodon or about
that time are said to have come the me-
gatherium and the megalosaurus, the
pterodactylus, or flying reptiles, a picture
of which the scientists have drawn al
though they have never found anything
but one or two bones that they couldn't
do anything else with, so they decided IL
must belong to a different animal from
those already discovered. With that sup
position at hand some bright scientist
went ahead and drew the picture. If he
has made a mistake he stands in no danger
of being corrected.
Cuyler swamp is a great place for birds,
and it must be that 1t had it's share of the
ante-diluvian variety along with the ant
eating megatherlum. Probably the ire
mendous icthyornis victor with his long
sharp teeth fiourished there, and made a
sport of catching sharks for dainty bits,
when he was not on a hunt for bigger
game. There is no telling what may not
yet be found in the old swamp. 1t always
was considered a curious place, and 1t
may be that some old fossilized animal as
yet unknown to science will be unearthed.

TO Savannah.

The Meeting To-day to Invite Him
TO Savannah.
Business men should not forget the
meeting al the city exchange at noon to-
day to consider the ACCESSIBILITY of ex-
tending an invitation to Hon. Josiah Pat
terson of Tennessee to speak in Savan-
nah upon the question of sound money.
Mr. j. S. Collins. one of the delegates
who attended the sound money convention
at Memphis. said yesterday that he was
even more pleased with the address of
Congressman Patterson to the conven-
ton than he was with that of Secretary
Carlisle. Mr. Patterson's exposition of the
subject, he said, was so clear and so
simple that even a child could understand
it.
The majority of business men in Savan-
nah. while favoring sound money as a
principle, win readily confess that they
do not pretend to understand the subject
in its details 1t would be a great advan-
tage to all who favor sound money to be
able to listen to the views of a man so
thoroughly acquainted with the subject
as Congressman Patterson, and the effect
would also be good upon those who are
wavering and in doubt on the subject

FIVE YEARS ron RUNNING AWAY
A Convict With n Record as a Fugi-
tive From the Gang.


The case of Tom Young, who was sent
up from the city court for escaping from
the chain-gang, receiving a six months
addition to his former sentence, is inter-
esting.
Young's original sentence was twelve
months, but he has already served nearly
five years on the gang for no other crime
than escaping. He was sent up from the
superior court in 1890 on conviction of lar
ceny from the house. lie escaped before
his sentence had expired, and was given
six months more. He escaped again and
pretty soon began getting twelve months
at a clip for running away. He escaped
a few days ago from the gang which was
at work on Tybee island. was arrested
shortly afterwards, and given six months
more by Judge NIacDonell.
YOungs term of twelve months for his
previous escape would have expired in
July, but it seems he was impatient and
could not wait for it. He will conse-
quently have the pleasure of spending six
months more on the gang, in addition to
his former sentence.

Chief McDermott does not know what the
society is willing to do in the way of bring
ing Masters back.
He will not know until this afternoon
whether the county is willing to pay the
expense of bringing him back here. Chief
McDermott is beginning to regret now
that he took any steps to secure Masters
arrest as if Masters is not brought back

No More Religious Services in the
Police Barracks


Mrs. Richard Webb did not hold reli 81
Gus services at the police lookup yester-
day. A rule was recently adopted by the
police committee that no one shall be al
lowed admission in the lookup except
attorneys and newspaper reporters.
This is to put a stop to the constant
stream of relatives, friends and chance
acquaintance who have worried the po-
lice officials no little by continued re-
quests to see prisoners confined in the
station house. No exception was made
in favor of those bound on religious mts-
sions or anybody else, even attorneys
and reporters are required to get special
permission from the officer in charge ut
the barracks on the occasion of each visit.
Mrs. Webb called at the barracks at 1
o'clock as usual for the purpose of holding
religious services with the prisoners. She
was disappointed when informed of the
new rule and endeavored to prevail upon
Grief McDermott to make an exception
in her favor, but the chief was memorable

WHAT THE "No FENCE" LAW MEANS
1t Means Better Drainage and Good
Health for the County

The report of the Dry Culture commit
tee to city council, dated Jan. 29,1S24, and
published in the Savannah Republican of
July 4, 1924. furnishes unequivocal evil
dences of the beneficial influence the dry
culture system and drainage exerted upon
the sanitary condition of the city after an
operation of three years. Previous TO that
time the humidity of the atmosphere was
so great that during the long flow upon
the rice a person, after being exposed for
a short time at night, could wiring water
from his locks of hair hanging below his
hat The average mortality of the white
population for the three last years of wet
culture, 1915, 1916, 1917, was one in 142,
whereas the average for the three years
of dry culture 1921 1892, 1923, was one in
34.5.
The continued sanitary improvement.
and the resulting rise in the property of
the city Is, therefore, to be ascribed to drv
culture and drainage, by which the hu-
mildly of our climate was reduced The
county commissioners are now seeking to
perfect a system of drainage which will in
evitably be followed by similar results.
Moisture is greatest in the river valleys.
and cities located in them are the most
unhealthy particularly those on the sea
coast. These suffer most frequently from
visitations of yellow fever Savannah Is
so situated, and, therefore, Chatham
county, above all others, requires per-
feet drainage. Nothing should be per
mitted to hinder its realization, hence
away with the present fence law, with
its roaming cattle, which destroy the
efficiency of the drains! Not one of the

THE DRAINAGE OF TYBEE.
The Convicts Have Been There Two
Months Already

The work on the Tybee Island drainage
is progressing very favorably, though it
is taking much longer to do the work
than was first supposed would be the
case.
The property owners on the island asked
for force of % conviets for one month.
Gang No. was sent down, and has now
been at work on the drainage for two
months. 1t is likely that it will be kept
there another month before the necessary
work is completed.
There are now twenty-nine men in the
camp, and the work done appears so far
to have been quite effective. Many of tho
pools of stagnant water have been drained
off, and the island is said to be In a more
healthy condition than it has been in
some time.
