Treatment Of Modern Bullet WOUNDS.

A most interesting and far.reaching
experiment on large scale was per-
formed at the battlefield of Mukden,
says the POSTGRADUATE. Several sani-
tary officers with good surgical train
ing being present, out Of 100 soldiers
wounded in the abdomen, SO were
soperateds upona by Slaparotomy. the SO
others left alone. the only treatment
consisting in absolute rest and in
keeping the external wound opening
clean. OF the so soldiers operated
upon 40 died, Of the incorporated 40
survived. This striking result indi-
Gated the manner Of treatment of
abdominal wounds throughout the
whole war. Laparotomy on or in the
rear of the battlefield was afterward
hardly ever performed, but strict care
was taken that all soldiers wounded
in the abdomen had absolute rest for
the first three days.

SUMTER IS
THE WINNER
Branch Agricultural College of Third Congress
sIonaI District to be Located Here
Sumter Wins in Close Contest With Pulaski
County-Our People ruch EIated

Sumter county won out in the con-
test for the Third district agricultural
college, and that great educational in
stitution is TO be located here. The bat
tie was hard fought against a valiant
foe' and the victory, therefore, is the
more appreciated.
And the victory is far-reaching in its
effect, as the location of this college
here is the greatest triumph achieved
by Sumter in many years. It's value is
really inestimable.
And an entire people will rejoice in
the success thus achieved.
Sumter county, through her board of
county commissioners, pledged a cash
subscription of forty thousand dollars;
three hundred acres land, together with
complete sanitary sewerage system
and water supply.
This, in reality, amounts to bid of
perhaps $50, 200.
Pulaski county, the only opponent in
the field against Sumter, made game
fight for the prize,
Her bid was 1925, 200 cash; 36l acres
land near Cochran, with buildings, es-
timated to be worth about S35, 900, to-
gether with free water, lights and sew
erage for term of ten years, thus put
ting a time limit ON these utilities.
Sumter's offer, as to utilities, is to be
fer all time.
These offers were made by Mr.. Grice,
representing Pulaski, and Mr. w. p.
Wallis, representing Sumter.
a great audience filled the auditori
um of the courthouse, where the pro-
ceedings were held, and rarely has "a
case on trial" there aroused greater or
more absorbing interest.
After hearing fully from representa-
tives of the two contesting counties,
Governor Terrell and the board of trus-
tees retired to an ante-room to consider
the two propositions. And after an
anxious hour the verdict was given in
favor of Sumter.
The decision of the trustees was re-

asking II Mr.. ROOSeYe1U not suspend
action in regard to the negro soldiers
until he got home. The reply says
that the presidents views are "clear
and unchanged, " that the disband-
ment is due to him and that the pres
ident's view is that the negro SOL
diers, in refusing information neces-
sary to the apprehension of the men
who committed criminal acts at the
town of Brownsville, Tex, struck
at the very heart of military justice
and discipline. Had the white troops
done this same thing, the reply says,
they would have suffered the same
penalty. In conclusion, the reply
says:
BE the offenders white or black,
the president proposes to combat race
antagonism. His action in the
Brownsville matter was taken in the
face of much adverse influence and
advice before he left. There can be
no amelioriation of the penalty until
the men concerned show their sense
of duty as citizens and soldiers by
giving up the offenders to Justice"

| RUOPS REPRIEVED
FROM DISGRACE
Taft Orders That Further Dis
charges be Suspended.
ADvlcEs WAITED FROM TEDDY
War Department Has Been Deluged
With Protests Against the Ord.sr Di-
recting the Discharge Of the Negro
Soldiers.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Acting un-
der orders of Secretary Taft, Major
General Ainsworth, military secretary
has directed that further discharges
of the men of the three negro COM
panies of the Twenty fifth infantry
on account of of the shooting at
Brownsville, Tex, be suspended
pending further orders.
The action, it is stated, Is in, Or
der to await the return of Secretary
Taft to Washigtion and is pending
further advices from President Roose-
welt, who has been communicated
with on the subject.
The war department has been del
uged with protests against the order
directing the discharge OF the three
companies. 1t is reported that fur
their Investigation will be made, and
that certain officers may be called on
for an explanation of the movement
of these men at the time the Browns
vile incident occurred.
'"The three companies of the Twen-
ty-fifth infantry were ordered dis
charged because it is not safe to have
them in the army. They cannot
be trusted, and for the protection of
the public and the preservation of the
discipline of the army their discharge
is necessary, acting Secretary Oil
yer of the war department said Mon
day.
The idea SENS to prevail that the
men were ordered discharged because
they refused to tell on their compan-
ions and because they are black
Nothing could be further from the
truth. These soldiers shot up a town.
All Of them refuse to tell anything
about the disgraceful affair at Browns
Vile, which resulted in murder. The
companies are shielding murderers
who are criminals of the worst sort
Every effort possible has been made
by the war department to find the
guilty men, but without avail II
these companies were permitted to
remain in the service and were to
shoot upon another town and again
endanger the lives of citizens, the war
department would be in an inde-
fensible position. 1t is impossible to
courtmartial each of the men in these
companies, for a charge cannot be
preferred against every one of the
members of the companies. The gov
ernment has no means of Furnishing
the crime except by discharging all
the men"

And while congratulating the coun-
