SENTINEL FIRED ON THEM.
Sailors Trying to Escape From the
Dixie Were Held Up.


Dixie Were Held Up.
A sentinel posted at the transport Dixie
at the Gordon wharf TO prevent any of the
crew leaving the vessel fired at three sail
ors who were trying TO get ashore yester-
day afternoon at about 6 O'clock. The bull
let did not take effect, but it made the
seamen give over their purpose and hastily
return to their vessel.
The Dixie is sort of camp of detention
in herself. She was fumigated at Sapelo,
but the five days since then have not
elapsed. Therefore it would be against the
quarantine regulations for anyone to leave
the ship ana mingle with the population.
Ii was known that there would be the
usual desire among seamen and others of
the crew 10 get ashore on reaching port,
and for that reason a guard was posted at
The vessel A man was placed near the
stem, another near the stern and another
amidships, and they paced the wharf TO
see that no sailors escaped from the YES
SCI.
The three who were apprehended in their
effort to get away thought there were
other methods than going on the wharf,
so they hailed a couple OF negro boat

vessel on the river side. The sailors
were then all right and were making their
escape, but the guard saw them and open
ed fire.
The guard has now been increased, two
or three men having been established on
the vessel on the river side. The three
sailors who tried 20 get away will be
sent down to Daufuskie this morning and
detained there under orders and possibly
guard until the five days are up. 1t
would have Jared better with them had
they waited to go out with their trans
port, which is expected to sail this after
noon at 4 o'clock with fresh beef and
supplies for Havana, where she will take
aboard the Ninth Illinois and bring the
regiment to Savannah.
The boatmen were apprehended, and will
be tried before the Recorder to-day for
violating the city ordinance regarding
quarantine.

slayer Arrested and Held Pending
the CorOner's Inquest.
William Sawyer, a colored boy, was
struck i'm the back of the neck by a rock
thrown by Arthur Jones, at 6 O'Clock last
night and killed. Sawyer was about 10
years of age, and his slayer is about as
old. The killing occurred at the Central
Railway coal chute, Just west Of the pas
senger shed.
The killing was the result of a row in
which the Two boys became engaged, and
while the blow was intended to do injury,
if is probable that the death of Sawyer
was neither expected nor desired by Jones.
Savers neck was broken by the force of
the blow and he was instantly killed. Soon
alter the affair, Jones was arrested by Po-
liceman Connolly and taken to the station
house, where he is now confined.
The coroner was notified of the killing,
and made an investigation. 1t is possible
that an inquest will be held to-day From
the best evidence obtainable, the occur

the rock thrown by Jones was intended to
avenee minor wrong. The pair were

the missiles hurled by Jones took effect,
with fatal consequences.

ABSOlUTENP Pure
aom. saxmo eoxosa cor NEW rosx

Montreal, the holder of more decora-
tions than any other physician in
America, who died a year ago, was the
great writer Of Canada, and DR.. Alex
ander Wilder. of Newark. n. j., ii
New York college professor, for years
secretary of a nationalmedical society,
leads Il worthy band in this country.
While these are only Il few, they are
the leaders of the force that finally
caused the appointments of the English
Royal Vaccination Commission, COM
mission, composed of fifteen of the
best men in England, statesmen, law
yers, doctors, and scientists, charged
with the thorough Investigation of
the whole subject, who worked six or
seven years, making annual reports,
and finally reported year ago unani-
mously against any further enforce
ment of the compulsory vaccination
law: a law practically just repealed or
emasculated by Parliament, so short
slightly mourned by you as some thing
disheartening.
~ You say: "To the non-medcal
man the fact that smallpox epidemics
are unknown where compulsory vacci-
nation is in force is sufficient demon
stration of the bene ticence of the law"
Now, the "fact' stated is not a fact.
England's IS law was first passed in 1858
mot in 1867, us you intimately and she
has had three great smallpox epidem-
les since, one the greatest in her his
tory, in lS10-l, when 42,200 died, the
disease being no respecter of yaccinat-
ed persons. 1t was worse this same
year in Prussia, l24,94S dying, though
the vaccination law had been enforced
there since 1885. Indeed, the most
ardent supporters of vaccination in
the medical ranks long ago abandoned
the preventive clause (as the insur-
ance men would say) and the conten-
tion now is that vaccination mitigates
the severity of the attack. AS Will
lam Cobbett long ago put it, this only
shows that 'squackery always has a
shuttle left, for this later position is
ias untena bic ;is the original one.
The newspapers owe the public far
more on this subject tina it gets.
They almost invariably squelch all an
ii writing, even to denying answer to
erroneous items and edito rials. Open
up your columns to this subject aud
you will probably find that there is in
telligence enough on the anti side to
teach the general public, if not the ed
itors, regarding the matters at issue.
Believe6 in vaccination should court
| tue fullest Investigation in this way,
for if theiI~pet emerges unsullied it
| will shine all the brighter before the
world. 1T cannot stand such investi-
| CATION and SO shrinks from it. Vacci-
| nation must go. is going, and is almost
gone: and there is not, as your open

heartening" in the successful opposi-
| tion to it. 1t is difficult to dislodge
idols, but when they totter and fall

stitiously ignorant mourn over their
