SHOULD CONNECT
HOUSE DRAINAGE
SAYS DR.. ]. C. LEHARDY.
nILBo CANAL WOULD THEN BE ALL
RIGHT, HE SAYS.

Either Cover Canal or Make All
House Drainage System, He Ar
rues-Few Hundred Houses Stin
Unconnected Endanger Health ut
Entire City-Timely Suggestion
from Former Health Officer.
THE entire house drainage system
of Savannah should be emptied into
the new system and storm water only
into the Bilbo canal
only few hundred houses are still
connected with the old system, dis
charging into the BiFbo canal and
keeping it a nuisance. If the house
drainage is removed the water will be
sweet and wholesome. Otherwise, the
canal should be covered"
Such is the view taken by DR.. ]. c.
LeHardy, former health officer of Sa-
vannah, who since 1850 has been ac-
lively engaged in the interest of Sa-
vannah's sanitary condition. He says
unhesitatingly that the canal under
present conditions is not only a nui-
sance, but is a menace to health.
But he insists that the canal would
be robbed of its dangers should the
city force the few hundred house own
ers, who have not done so. to connect
their property with the new house
drainage system. If this were done
there would be no necessity for cover
ing the canal, he says.
Few Endanger the Many.
Dr. LeHardy was one of the local
physicians. who in 1876 during the
yellow fever scourge, worked so hard
for proper drainage. He recalls the
times, when he drove up to the hubs
of his carriage wheels in the place that
is now the site of the First Baptist
Church. This place was once a marsh
and the drainage system from Whit
aker street towards East Broad was
started at this point, he says
This system that was inaugurated
50 many years. ago is still a part of
the city's system. The fact that a
few hundred people are allowed to
still use the old system, while parallel
TO il is the pipe of the new system,
that most of the citizens have been
made to connect with, is in the opinion
of the physician a serious menace to
the health of the community.
Germs in the Milk.
Because cows have access to the
Bilbo canal, there is great danger of
germs being transmitted to people
through the milk, DR.. LeHardy says.
A disease in a house connected with
the old system could be transmitted
through the milk of cows drinking
from the canal, he says.
On Duffy, Anderson and Abercorn
streets the old brick sewers were first
laid. Later the modern closed pipe
system was inaugurated and though
a majority of the houses have been
connected with the new system, there
are several hundred still connected
with the old system and endangering
the health of the city, he states.
TT remains for Savannah to say
what it will do about it, DIR. Lee
Hardy concluded.

Lily Langtry's Husband.

Evidently Lily Langtry had a profit
able visit to America last winter, be-
cause she bought for her husband,
Gerald de Battle, some shirt studs that
a duke might envy. These are cabo-
chon rubies of good size, and each Is
surrounded by rim of diamonds. The
studs We're purchased from a Fifth
avenue jeweler and the price was more
than $1,000 Gerald de Battle is known
in London as one of the best dressed
men in England. He affects conspicu-
Gus clothes, but there is a certain dis
tinction about his appearance that
counteracts the effect of his loud"
clothes. To his friends he is known as
"Jiggy' de Battle. The Jersey Lily re-
fers to him as "Jiggy." They see little
of one another. "Jiggy" counts the
king among his friends, but he has
never entered the set in which his wife
moves. He loathes anything that APP
proaches society, but is something of
clubman.
