Gives $4,000 Manse
For Love of Pastor
Donation Made by Savannah Man to
Westminster Presbyterian
Church.

SAVANNAH, Sept. 2o.-On the eve
OF the completion of the handsome
Memorial Westminster Church, it is
just becoming known that a benefi-
cent admirer of the pastor of this
congregation has pledged the dona-
ton of a $4,000 manse. The name of
the donor of the $4,000 for the cree
ton of the church building has never
been made public. because it was his
wish that the fact be not exploited,
and the giver of the manse seems
destined to have the same secrecy as
to his identity preserved. 1t is said
on good authority that there is no re-
lation between the two donors.
The church was erected as me-
mortal to the mother of the man who
gave of his wealth for it.
It has not been determined where
the manse is to be erected. Those
who have the matter in hand are
naturally inclined to build II as near
as possible to the church.

Turning Basin in
Savannah Harbor
That Portion Of Fig Island Owned
by City of Savannah
To Be Used.

SAVANNAH, Sept. 2O.-While no
definite arrangements have beer
made regarding the construction OF
the proposed turning basin in Savan-
nah Harbor off Fig Island, sugges-
ton has been made to Colonel Dan c..
Kingman, United States engineer, in
charge Of the Savannah district, by
the city officials, that the basin be
made off that portion of the island
owned entirely by the city.
If the basin is built at the point
originally planned it will be necessary
to eXcavate a part of Fig Island
owned by private individuals. These
owners, it is understood, want $4,000
for the land. The Government made
a tentative suggestion, through Colo
mel Kingman, that this land be coded
for the basin. and in return offered to
raise the balance of the island muCn
higher above the sea level, thereby
enhancing the value of the property.

GUN DRAWN AND
CURSING HEARD
IN COURTROOM
Liquor Seller Defes Sheriff While
Convicted Slayer Feigns
Sudden Violent Insanity.

ATHENS, Sept 20.-In the Banks
County Superior Court at Conner,
yesterday Judge Brand was given an
other fine opportunity to further his
crusade against the pistol toter. He
was called upon to pass sentence on
an offender who pulled his gun in the
presence of the court and juries, law
yers and attendants.
A man named Saey, up for selling
whisky, on being asked to remain in
an anterOom while a bOndsman was
looked up, insisted on following the
Sheriff. When the officer sought to
put him back in the room by force
he drew his pistol right in the court
room. He was promptly given six
months on the gang by Judge Brand.
Another interesting case was that
against Pink Haywood. who is rather
an unique character. His father was
a one-legged beggar. one brother was
hanged for murder, another is serv-
ing life sentence for participation in
the killing and now Pink is up for
the second time in a murder case.
Some time ago he was convicted of
murder and sentenced to life, but on
motion for a new trial the Su-
preme Court said there were no
grounds for manslaughter and recon-
mended that he be found guilty in the
first degree.
When Pink heard of this he sud
denly went crazy in the Jail and raved
like a maniac. He was tried this
week for lunacy and the jury return
ed a verdict that he was taking, and
when the new trial was brought up
il was found that the main witness
was dead and that another could not
be present. The trial could not be
heard, but the prisoner was so We
hement in his Guessing" and raving
that the judge sentenced him to six
months in the gang for CurSing before
ladies in the courtroom.
