l>y AY reeking; Machine.
A story was brought In by a local
automobile dealer, who also does a
general wrecking business, rescuing dis
abled autos on the road, last night, in
which a number of prominent gentle
men and two companions figured.
Shortly after 9 o'clock the party left
the city for a ride through the moon
light to Thunderbolt. The trip to the
popular resort was attended by no
further incident than the frequent
stops for the proper enjoyment of re
freshments. The owner of the ma
chine was acting as “shover," and
piloted the party safely.
After an hour's enjoyment at the
Casino, the party started on the re
turn trip. The night was made merry
by the songs and jests of the elated
quintette. The whirring wheels and
regular “chug, chug' 1 of the motor kept
accompanyment to the song, &nd the
throaty notes of the signal horn punctu
ated, as with laughter, the funny
stories. Indeed, it was “awfully jol
ly.”
Shadow Frightened Driver.
Suddenly across the road ahead
there appeared a shadow, resembling
through the wine mist which ob
scured the “shovel's” view, a fallen
tree. It was nothing more than a
depression in the road. Just as the
machine got to the spot the driver
threw on the emergency brake, clamp
ing it down so hard that the lever
broke. This accident, however, es
caped the notice of the driver, and all
members of the party who were not
thrown from the machine piled out to
see what was the matter. It was
discovered that the driver had be
come frightened and thought he was
about to run over a fallen tree. All
laughed merrily and there was much
joking.
When all had clambered aboard and
the engines had started, the driver
put on the clutch. The machine re
fused to budge. Again and again an
effort was made to get the machine in
motion, but when the clutch was
Jammed on the engines stopped and
someone suggested that the gasoline
had given out. A consultation was
held, and a searching party was sent
out to get gasoline. No gasoline was
to be found, but several gallons of
kerosene were secured at a negro's
house and hastily poured into the
tanks. More efforts were made to
get the machine in motion, without
avail.
In the befuddled brain of one of the
members of the party, a happy Idea
took birth—to telephone for a wreck
ing outfit. The rescuing car arrived
in due time, and the attendant at
once saw what the difficulty tvas.
There was kerosene mixed with the
gasoline in the tanks. He quickly
emptied the tanks, to put in more un
adulterated gasoline. The adulterated
contents of the tanks had been spilled
all over the ground immediately un
der the machine.
OH Burned Fiercely.
Someone struck a light that the
work of the expert might be conducted
with due expediteness. The match
burned short, and was hastily thrown
to the ground. In a moment that por
tion of the ground underneath the ma
chine resembled, in mild form, the
eruption of Mt. Pelee. The rescuing
machinist had his eyebrows singed off,
and hastily scrambled from under the
machine.
It was apparent in a moment that
the machine would be burned If It
was not moved. Every member of the
party put a shoulder to the wheel, fig
uratively, and commenced shoving. The
machine would not budge. The wheels
were locked by the emergency brake.
The situation was gnowing serious.
What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease,
The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave us
our daily dose of sulphur and molasses
every spring and fall.
It was the universal spring and
fall "blood purifier,” tonic and cure
all, and mind you, this old-fashioned
remedy was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in a palatable, con
centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than a table-
Bpoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent, years, research and ex
periment have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that ob
tained from Calcium (Calcium Sul
phide) and sold in drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Calcium Wafers.
They are small chocolate coated pel
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in a highly con
centrated. effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur In restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health; sulphur acts directly on the
liver, and excretory organs and puri
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo
lasses every spring and full, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary
flowers of sulphur were often worse
than the disease, and cannot com
pare with the modern concentrated
preparations of sulphur, of which
Etuart’s Calcium Wafers is undoubt
edly the best and most widely used.
They nre the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood In a
way that oft"n surprises patient und
physician alike.
Dr. R, M. Wilkins while experi
menting with sulphur remedies soon

Personal abuse don’t answer it. Let
us see.
“Speaking of the charge of corporate
domination, the Atlanta Journal edi
torially says; 'But true in the sense
that the little inner ring, which by
hook and crook has managed to keep
on top so long, is absolutely under
the influence of such corporate domi
nation, and is evidently under agree
ment to whip the rank and file of the
popular representatives into line for
the corporations whenever possible.”
“In the Savannah Press of Dec. 21,
in an editorial upon my interview', we
find this language; 'The farts are,
however, about as Mr. Osborne has
stated them at the opening of the last
Legislature.’
“I believe to-day that Democracy's
sole danger is from the inside —from
the mercenaries who by their acts make
possible to-day a division of the white
people of the state as a protest
against their selfish manipulation.

“Is not the harm incalculable that
attends the presence in party lines of
one who, if public opinion would per
mit an advertisement of his business,
would send out a card reading like
this:
“Bill Jones—Mercenary—
“Legislative bills drawn, pigeon
holed. amended out of all semblance,
delayed, strangled or killed.
"Democracy fooled, bam-boozled,
teased, betrayed or steered up Salt

“Terms: Annual salary preferred,
but will work by the job.”
“The thing horrifies when one is
plain-spoken. Don’t it?
“So far this is as far as I have gone.
But I am prepared to go further. I
purpose to take the people into my
confidence and reason it out with
them. I say now that the question
asked me by Morris relative to the
conference in Mr. West's interest is
pertinent and material.
That Midsummer Conference.
“But the story never excites inter
est when you commence In the middle
of the book. In a spirit of perfect
fairness to the public. I suggest to Mr.
Morris that we commence at the be
ginning. and publish the whole story
as a serial.
“This story properly commences at
a mid-summer conference in the year
1902. Mr. Morris will doubtless recall
it very promptly when I remind him
it was the conference w r hich resulted
in the retirement of Mr. Steed from
the speakership race, and the concen
tration behind him of the forces that
made his election possible. An in
cident of this conference, I am relia
bly informed, was the apportionment
of certain high offices for years thence
next ensuing.
“Let us start the story here and I
assign Mr. Morris to write the first
chapter. I assign him to the task,
because I was not present at the con
ference. He was. The public is en
titled to have the story first hand. I
will then edit his remarks, take it up
where he left off and bring it dow r n
to the present time.
“The first chapter should contain:
First. The names of those present at
the conference if it is deemed advisa
ble, but the interests represented will
answer Just as well. Second: The
reasons advanced at this conference
why Mitchell should be beaten. Third:
The promises made Mr. Steed to pro
cure his retirement. The article
should be written in an open, frank
dignified manner, and be free from
abuse, in ordef to command respect
and attention.
Make It Lingering Death.
"I shall not hurry Mr. Morris In his
literary effort. I Intend to take a
couple of short trips off during the
holidays and will be otherwise engaged
until the middle of next month. So I
give him until JAn. 15, 1905, 'to do his
part.
“If he does not do so by that time,
in the full acknowledgement that the
great jury is to pass upon this ques
tion is entitled to the facts, I shall
myself write the chapter from in
formation that has leaked out. I am
in no hurry for a further reason. I
don’t want the mercenaries put out of
their misery too quickly. Let the
punishment fit the crime. Make it a
lingering death.
“It will be observed that in this in
terview I do not attempt to correct the
many grave Inaccuracies which go to
make up Mr. Morris’ tirade of personal
abuse. The sole excuse is that this
Interview is already too long. I must
not tire nor becloud the issue with
collateral matter.
“I am waging an offensive warfare.
Mr. Morris is not strong enough to put
me on the defensive.
“I content myself for the present
with the statement that never at any
time have I ever received a penny as
a reward for political influence. This
for my own satisfaction only. With
the recognition tWat It does not ab
solve me from my duty to the public
and to myself to answer specifically at
a later day.
Truth Will Leak Oat.
“Any matter personal to myself Is
at present of minor consideration.
When the shrill cry of the sentinel Is
heard upon the still night air, warning
the sleepers of the danger that
menaces. It is not necessary
nor is It safe to stop and
eye critically the one that warns. If
the danger impends, safety steps are
the first consideration.
“For the purposes of this controver
sy It Is sufficient, if it be admitted, for
the sake of the argument that all Mor
ris has said about me be true, and all
that has been said about Morris In the
last year be true. If two such get to
lighting it at once becomes interest
ing to the honest country folks, for
if the adage is true they are near com
ing unto their portion. That is all they
really care about.
‘T like Morris’ comments upon turn
ing states’ evidence, thy ugh there is
nothing forceful In his application.
When a stink smells to the highest
heavens, so as to become a common
nuisance, It is not 'turning state's
evidence’ to make a eusuVil comment

SHALL BILBO CANAL
REMAIN AN OPEN DITCH?
Editor Morning News: I read with
considerable interest Dr. LeHardy’s let
ter relating to Bilbo canal, and I Have
also read your editorial in this morn
ing’s News, upon the same subject.
Both Dr. LeHardy’s letter and your
editorial would be on the proper line,
provided your basis of argument were
sound, but as a rrfatter of fact neither
of you seem to have taken into con
sideration that there is a large por
tion of the city of Savannah without
house drainage which must of neces
sity use Bilbo canal.
Take all of the southeastern portion
of the city of Savannah lying east of
the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad tracks
and there is no house drainage, except
what leads Into Bilbo canal, and this
would be sufficient to maintain a nuis
ance and a menace to health, which
Has been so often discussed. The great
difficulty about a mktter of this kind
is that the average citizen does not
inform himself before giving expression
upon so important a subject.
Many years ago a committee of citi
zens was appointed by the Mayor and
Aldermen to act with a committee from
Council looking to a means of getting
rid of Bilbo canal. The committee met
from time to time, made a very
thorough investigation and submitted
its report. The report is no doubt to
day in the files of the clerk of Council.
I was a member of that committee, and
I am quite well informed as to what
i\As done. When the city provided for
house drainage it left out the south
eastern portion, upon the theory that
it would be necessary to use a pump
ing station if that section were in
cluded; hence we go on from year to
year and nothing IS done, and every
time the subject is mentioned or brought
to the attention of the citizens, some
one attempts to deal wit.i the matter
but faiiS to base his aiguuients upon
conditions as they exist; hence people
are In almost every agitation of the
question unintentionally misled.
There is a wide difference of opinion
as to whether Bilbo canal is more
dangerous open than closed, but let this
be as it may, it is a disgrace to any
city of the importance of Savannah to
allow an open sewer such as Bilbo
canal flow through a section of the
city over which nearly every man,
woman and child passes sometime dur
ing the year. Nearly all the suburban
resorts are reached via Savannah
Electric Company, which crosses the
most objectionable point of this open
sbwer, and unless Council takes some
notice of the matter and makes a sub
stantial move to remove the nuisance
by closing or otherwise, It will of ne
cessity do in the future what it has in
the past—deter the growth and up
building of the southeastern portion of
Savannah, to say nothing of the effect
w’hich it has upon the entire com
munity.
The danger from Bilbo canal as far
as health is concerned effects in a very
slight degree the health of Collinsville
and the Meadows, or any portion of
the city lying east of the canal, for
the reason that In warm weather, when
the danger Is greatest, the winds are
from the southeast and drives the
odor which Is so objectionable west of
the canal; hence a very large portion
of the city, and especially the eaatern
portion, west of the tracks of the At
lantic Coast Line, suffers much more
limn that portion lying east of the
tracks. It Is a crying shame nnd dis
grace to permit thla open sewer to re
main open longer.
I fully appreciate the fact that It
takes a considerable outlay to do the
work; hence the Mayor end Aldermen
hesitate to make the expenditure. Slid

MUSINGS OF A BARBER.
“I suppose I have shaved about
twelve acres of face," remarked a
Bull street barber to a customer a
day or two ago. “I have been shav
ing ten years and I base my calcula
tion on an average of a little over an
acre of face a year.
“Yes. that may seem a peculiar way
to count what I've accomplished in
the shaving line. Now, as to the com
bined length of neck I’ve shaved and
trimmed I reckon if stretched out in
a straight line they would make about
twenty-five miles. I do not mean to
say that a man with twelve acres of
face would necessarily have twenty
five miles of neck. Necks are as dif
ferent as can be imagined.
“The amount of hair that has fallen

measured by horsepower. One mas
sage, not electrical, which would be
counted by the watt the resistance of
one ohm, I reckon, as representing
one-tenth of one horsepower.”
“If a face as large as the compo

C H RISTMAS DINNER Tor
POLICE PRISONERS.
Quartermaster Sergeant P. J. Kelly
has arranged a tempting bill of fare
for the trusty prisoners at police head
quarters for to-day. The dinner will

coffee.
looked Into, and then, about the time
that some member of Council sees
proper to deal with this Important
matter the time arrives for another
change In the municipality.
.At present the city fathers appear to
have about all they can attend to, and
about all they can pay for—the City
Hall being built and to be paid for;
the subway being built, and to be paid
for; paving to be done, which is also
important, and to be paid for; hence,
any scheme or plan to have this im
portant work done at any one time
appears to any -reasonable man as be
ing impracticable. But it is perfectly
feasible, and I think proper for Coun
cil to provide for doing this work by
degrees. Let it have plans prepared
for the covering of this canal and do
a part of the work each year until
it is finished. In this way the work
can be paid for without any increase
in taxation and ultimately would get
rid of what I consider a disgrace and
nuisance, If not a menace to -health.
I have hesitated to write upon this
subject for the reason that it is a weli
known fact that I am personally in
terested in the southeastern portion
of the city and have not wished to
be placed in the position of advocating
any public work, and have my acts
misconstrued to mean that my efforts
were simply in the' interest of the
property which I own east of the Bil
bo canal; but one thing is certain,
the taxpayers and citizens living east
of the Atlantic Coast Line tracks are
entitled to some consideration at the
hands of the city fathers.
If the cost of a house drainage sys
tem is greater than that of covering
Bilbo canal, then the city authorities
should not hesitate to cover the ca
nal and thus give a safe method of
sewerage, else they should proceed
without delay to give to the people
living east of the Atlantic Coast Line
tracks a house drainage system. At
present about the only house drainage
In that section of the city is that which
I. as president of the real estate com
pany, put down and paid for and that
when I sold the streets and lanes to
the city of Savannah, passed into the
control of the city. Other than this
there is no drainage of any character,
so that you will see that when Dr.
LeHardy or yourself touch upon some
of the important points connected
with this agitation for the covering
of Bilbo canal you have failed to note
the most Important condition.
I am in no sense disposed to com
plain of the city authorities for not
having dealt with this matter long
ago. because I am well aware of the
fact that there is no one alderman in
a dozen who ever gives this matter
more than very little thought. The
fact is they know nothing about It ex
cept in a passing way, but as I am
confident that It Is your purpose to
present every public matter In the
proper light, I determined to give you
the facts as they exist, and trust that
you will give space to this commu
nication, Jacob S. Collins.
