Savannah to Save
On Street Sweeping
City Engineer Declares Atlanta Gets
BroOms $40 Each Cheaper Than
He Has Been Paying.

SAVANNAH, July 12.-As a result
OF the recent inspection by City En-
glneer +. X. Conant of street paving
in other cities, a saving of about $500
annually will be effected in Savan-

brOOms.
Atlanta, Conant found. is paying =
little more than 81 apiece for its
brooms, while Savannah has for years
been buying them at $14. In Atlanta
a laborer is employed by the city to
make the brooms, the city purchasing
the necessary materials. The laborer
gets $3.50 a day.
Arrangements will at once be made
to have these brOoms made in Savan-
nah as they are in Atlanta.

be an exception-and worthier Amer

Looked Down on BY All.
Some of the criticisms of Mr.. Page
in the review of his book follow:
I'VE found that Nicholas Worth,
the professed author of the book, was
man whose environment in the
South had evidently been among per
sons who were not recognized in that
section as typiCal-in fact, who had
no social recognition whatever. but
who lived to themselves and We're
looked down upon by whites and
blacks alike.
There are scenes in this book that
are so coarse that we will not bring
them into this review. 1t is sufficient
to say that they were used to Vilify
the white race
Nicholas Worth and his kind new
er stood socially high in the South:
ne was no gentleman; his associates
We're not gentlemen; his antecedents
had defective sense Of the differ
ence that exists between right and
wrong.
Nicholas Worth holds Confederate
NDtNl t1Al0 III ulLtI contempt, ana
throughout his book Confederates are
roundly abused, and he also abuses
their organization and other Southern
patriotic bodies, such as the Daugh-
ters Of the Confederacy. Nicholas
Worth denies that there was any in
tellectuality among the women Of the
South. He frequently speaks of the
lack of culture Of all the people
among whom he was reared.
Ashamed of Section.
Nicholas Worth, the Southerner,
Is ashamed of being a Southerner. He
holds that there is no negro social
problem. He does not find objection
able the marriage of a mulatto girl TO
white man. He meets the negro
woman on the terms Of equality.
The book now becomes important
because of Mr. Pages position as the
Ambassador of all the American peo-
pie to Great Britain. In London the
book is being hailed as a true express
sion of the South, for Mr.. Page was
born in the South, and they naturally
suppose that a Southern President
appointing a man of Southern birth
has appointed a representative
Southerner."

habeas corpus proceedings at White
Plains, July, 1912, declared today
that there was no doubt but that
Harry K. Thaw would return to all
the vices to which he was addicted
before he was locked up at Matte
wan.
"UnquestiOnbly," he said, Harry
ThaW will return to the use of drink
and drugs and to moral perversiOns.
Thaw is incurably insane. His dis
ease is progressive. The moment he
takes drink of whisky or wine he
will at once become irresponsible
again and his diseased mind will re-
vert to the decisions of persecution
which he cherished before he slew
White. He is likely at any time, in
such a state, to single out one of
those persons who he believes has
wrOnged him and attempt violence"
