A Tale of Tybee.
How Jack saunder Proved Himself
Hero.
BY LAFAYETTE BYLAWS.

It was as brave deed as ever fellow
did and II makes my flesh Jingle even now
when 1 think of Jack Saunders. We be-
gan our college life on the same day at
the University of Georgia. and although
he first entered the class rooms 1t was
weeks, or perhaps months, before l even
learned his name.
In those days Franklin College, or the
University of Georgia, as it is now
known, was divided into two departments
The agricultural, in which tuition was
free, as II was supported by the state,
and the university in which there was
tuition charged. The boys who attended
the university were dubbed rich mems
sons" while the men in the state de-
partment were called poo folks" Jack
Saunders, / soon came to know, was the
poorest of all the POO folks" He could
not afford to live even in the cheap DORM
itories of the agricultural college, but
hired a room on the outskirts Of Athens
and was his own cook and washerwoman.
But he was not biz ashamed of his pow
erty nor of doing any work by which he
could earn an honest dollar.
AT HTSt, 1 must lutiS WSAS lcf-
lows who were mean enough to try to
snub him. If their scorn hurt he did not
show it. He was a Woodworking, indie
pendent fellow who respecting himself
forced the respect of all with whom he
came in contact.
That summer when | went with lot of
other university men to Tybee Island for
a dip in the surf and a few days Of sea
air, whom should we discover on our first
evening but Jack Saunders acting as SUI
perintendent of the dining room--a sort
of head waiter-in the hotel where We
were stopping. 1t was the hight of the
Tybee season, and the hotel and cottages
were packed to overlooking with the most
fashionable and aristocratic people in the
South. / was young and with my full
share of conceit, and / must say 1t was
somewhat of a shock when recognized
Jack and realized his position. But l am
thankful to say 1 had sufficient manhood
to act the gentleman when one OF my
companions brought me to my senses by
exclaimng:
II say, If yonder amt that pauper,
Jack Saunders, acting as head waiter
suppose hen expect us to take him up
because we were fools enough to elect him

cost the lives of those people out there.
"And your own life, Jack, l question:
ed, sis it not worth considering
II will do my best, Dick, but must try
for those people"
He stood for a moment watching the
sea. Then following a retreating wave,
plunged into the wall of water. There
was a moments suspense, then we saw
his body lifted up and brought back on
the top of the next wave. There was
sigh of relief from the crowd as we real
lied he was unhurt But he was I'M
daunted. After recovering his breath he
plunged in again and disappeared in the
bank of foaming water The people held
their breath in suspense. The wave rolled
in and broke, but there was no sign Of

There he is" some one farther down
the beach shouted, as Jacks head appear
ed above the surface of the incoming
wave. His dive had not been long enough
and as he came to the surface he was
caught by the next wave and dashed upon
the beach.
Surely he will not try again." some
one said, as he lay upon the sand appar-

hausted and cruely bruised by the wsve,
but after a few days rest he was up and
at his work again. Not as superintendent
of the dining room, however, but as first
assistant to the proprietor of the hotel.
There were wealthy people at the reswt
and among the passengers who were only
too anxious to subscribe to a fund for NJ
benefit, but Saunders refused, saying.
courteously:

age when she became 16 to II years old.
II she married then, or shortly afterward,
1t was not such an unusual thing. Twen-
ty-five years ago girls generally married
at 10, while to-day the average is closer
to %. The marriage of a girl in her
teens causes actual surprise in these days.
Out of a list of 1000 marriages recently
compiled, Just one-half the brides were
between % and Is; 200 were between .25
and 30. Still, there were 300 under 20
years of age. And nearly all these young
girls married men under 22-mere boys.

part of girls marriage at too early an

husband she is very apt to choose boy"
There is much in the way a thing is

Aunt Flora, when Lois come in from a

EFFECT OF FOREST FIRES.
Considerable Falling OFF In the
Water supply.

The destruction Of forests by fires has
caused n considerable falling off in water
s,,pply in some portions of the country.
esuecially in southern California. The COM
missioner of the general land office consid-
ers this subject of so much Importance that
he has initiated a policy of reforeSting the
burned areas of reservations. He has In
structed the superintendent of forests in
California to examine lands at heads of
streams and along water courses, with
view to ascertaining what tree growth
is indigenous TO such places. When this has
been done seeds and young trees will be
nlanted in these denuded localities, and it
is thought that within two years the result
ing growth will have appreciate effect
in preventing the rapid evaporation of
water The present force of forest rangers
will be employed in replanting the burned
areas. In order to prevent the spread of
forest fires telephone systems will be ar
ranged in a number of reserves as a means
of rapid communication between those in
charge of the forests. Many serious fires it
is said could have been prevented had this
system been in use previously.
The Secretary of the Interior has been in
formed that Gen. Shafter in command of
the Department of California, will detail
Mai l.. H. Rucker, 9Th Cavalry as super
intendent of Yosemite Park, and Capt
West, 9th Cavalry, as superintendent of
Sequoia and General Grant parks.
