GRAND JURY coMMENDs
C0LQUITT DRY OFFICER


M0ULTRIE, jan. 31.-The sensa-
stioanl charges brought against J. o.
Stewart, chief of the Colquitt coun-
ty police force, by certain tax pay
ers VINO called upon the county COM
missionefs to dismiss him from Of
flee, apparently have been dropped
altogether and the dry sleuth seems
to be as strongly eptrenched as ever.
In fact the grand jury which served
at the term of court which has just
adjourned not only urged that he be
kept on duty, but gave it as their
opinion that she is a conscientious
officer and no respector of persons.
The petitioners who filed their
complaint with the commissioners
urging that Stewart be ousted be-
cause of his alleged active part in
the Snching of John Hery Williams,
a negro who was burned to death fol-
lowing his conviction for the murder
of white girl last summer, insisted
Immediately after making their
charges that they would appear be
fore the grand jury with what evil
dence they claimed to have to sup
port their contentious. Nor did the
grand jury summons them, although
their names appeared on the doeu-
ment and was on file with the COM
misisoners. Besides alleging that
Stewart was member of the mob
that burned the negro, the petitioners
contended that he swore falsely in
the trial of two cases at which he was
the states chief witness.

Massive scenes, the pon1p and eere-
mony of days gone BY, sensational
chariot races, dancing girls at the
Feast of Belshazzard-all are a part
of David Wark Giffith's tremendous
production, THE Fall of Babylon, /"
coming to the Ryfandef Friday and
Saturday.
No more vivid and romantic pic
ture of life, exists than that reflect
ed in the pre-Christian era, when
Babylon's walls were the boundary
of life of passionate and mystic
splendor Humanity has outgrown
Babylon's manners and garb, but in
patriotism, love and loyalty, the
hearts of men and women have not
Changed. Mr.. Griffith. whose re-
gard for the dramatic and unusual
was so admirably expressed in his
two former master works, "The
Birth of a Nation" and Hearts of
The World" has turned to the deep
PHILOSOPHERS and spectacular bril-
lance of the days of Babylon for his
Inspiration, with the result that "The
Fall of Babylon" is a simple love
story against background of colos-
sal scenes of grandeur wherein slave
dealers, knaves, soldiers, court beau
ties and ladies of the harem become
the contrasting elements. The smoke
of battle and the thunder of giant
turrets pause to reveal glimpses of
those fragile beauties who lent life
and joy to the court. Doves bearing
Curids messages fit about the great
halls and banquet rooms of Bel
shazzar's palace, fountains of wine
splash forth amid a myriad of var
colored lights in this powerful drama
Of crimson conflict and golden love.
''fhe Fall of Babylon" undoubted-
fy will show Griffith at his best, for
it has given this wizard of the drama
an opportunity to express that pecul-
lar genius so wildly revealed in all
his past super-pictures, wherein prod
igious, throbbing scenes of grandeur
are made by the background for the
unfolding of love story of tender
appeal and charming simplicity.
A special MUSICAL Accompaniment
has been provided for the further en-
joyment of the production.

sentatives to the fifth relay carni-
val in the huge armory of the Uni
versity of Illinois March 4, in re-
Spouse to ESQ invitations which
have just been sent to the most
prominent colleges and universities
in the country.
Last year Il teams We're entered
in the carnival, which is the only
big indoor event of the kind and
which ranks with the Penn and
Drake relays in Importance. A great
number of inquiries have already
been received about the meet, ac-
cording to Coach Harry Gill, the
creator of the event, and he is ex-
pecting the 1922 meet to be the
most successful of the series so
far.
Many southern teams, which have
not heretofore journeyed into the
north, are planning to come to the
Illinois meet this year. One of the
big attractions to athletic teams to
attend the Illinois relay is that all
profits of the event are prorated to
the attending teams, according to
the ramber of men and the distance
travelled. Last year more than
$4,000 was divided among the en-
tries.

he is feeling better satisfied with
the situation now and is going
ahead with plans for the 1922 sea-
son. He has letter from Mana

general says he has secured the
services of a catcher gratis. His
name is Ollie Thurman and he is
