HOSPITAL WORK
ENORMOUS TASK
MEN BEING CARED FOR UNDER
DIFFICULTiEs-MANY WOUNDS
BECOME INFECTED.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

| Gleiwitz, Germany, Dec. 12.-The
| hospitals of Gleiwitz and Cosel, filed
mainly with wounded from the battles
before Ivangorod and Warsaw, pre-
sent striking contrasts to those farther
from the front, which are not so un-
attra ctive.
Here are gathered men who were
worn, haggard and suffering long be-
fore they were wounded. Many of
them had not removed their clothing
for four or five weeks, and had slept
and food scarcer. A large number lay
on the fields for a day or two after
being injured before receiving medical
attention. Followed then by journeys
of a day or more in jolting peasants
carts and three or four days nerve
racking riding on railway trains until
the base hospitals finally were reached.
These delays caused at least ninety
per cent of the wounds to become In
fected, making the problems of the
surgeons more difficult. Every effort
is made in the American hospitals to
save as many limbs as possible re-
CARELESS of the length of time the pa
tients must be kept. To the CORE
spondent of The Associated Press were

days before II amputation had been
resorted to. But bone and skin graft
ing is thought to be more humane,
even though it takes longer.
It is no reflection upon the German
sanitary arrangements that the
wounded suffer as they do. On the
western front conditions are better.
The wounded in France and Belgium
come back rapidly to comfortable
beds in field and base hospitals and
receive speedy treatment which heads
off injection. The wounded who are
expected today or tomorrow from the
battlefields just across the Russian
frontier will be in far better shape
than their predecessors because they
have been wounded but few miles
from good German roads and few
hours from clean hospital beds and
adequate medical care
Only a few of the wounded will
die Nearly all will recover even
tually, although recovery can not pro-
coed, nor broken bones knit, until
suppuration ceases. Many of them
will spend Christmas in the hospitals.
Some can write postcards, read the
daily war bulletins, play checkers or
even shuttle about the wards and cor
ridors Almost all can eat and the
dietary prescribed for these seriously
wounded soldiers would make many
an American physician gasp.

TO
SEND HORSES
THROUGH PORT
REPORTED THAT MANY OF THEM
SHIPPED TO ENGLISH PORTS.

From what are considered reliable
sources it is learned that Pensacola
will be a shipping point for large
numbers of horses and mules which
have been purchased in the south by
agents for the British government,
and preparations are now being made
by the Louisville & Nashville to han
die all live stock from Louisville south
to Pensacola.
1t is reported that the steamer
Kentra, which recently sailed from
Pernambuco for Pensacola, is to be

this live stock and as soon as she ar
rives the work OF making her ready
will be started.

DO YOU SUFFER
FROM BACKACHE?

When your kidneys are weak and
torpid they do not properly perform
their functions: your back aches and
you do not feel like doing much of

bc & victim any longer.

Sarsapariua gives strength and tone

Richmond has witnessed the growth
OF many Industries within her confines.
but probably tho phenomenal growth
and success of tho firm of L. p. Muir
ply & Son, Inc, wholesale and retail
coal dealers, has been tho most re-
markable example of successful bust
ness expansion in Richmond in half q
century.
Starting in the coal business in
Richmond In a small way almost forty
years ago. Mr.. e. p. Murphy laid the
| foundation and tuilt up q business that
to-day stands as monument to him,
and one that can be we'll Viewed with
pride. the small business OF forty years
ago has developed into tho largest re-
tail coal business In the South, and
| compares I'm more than favorable
manner with the largo Industries Of
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
In carly 1913 Z. p. Murphy G. Son,
| Inc, took over the entire retail bust
ness in Richmond of the White Oak
Coal Company. the largest coal mining
company in West Virginia, and the ad-
uition OF their enormous tonnage and
immense 1O,000-ton terminal at Twelfth
and Byrd Streets. the most modern
coal terminal in the South, to the al
ready large business of this firm, in
creased their tonnage to such an OK
tent that a. present they nre supply
ing fully 20 per cent of all tho steam

During this Same year, e. p. Muir,
ply & Son, Inc, acquired the Seaboard
f'uel Company, wholesale and retail,
and in June of 1913 were mado the
general sales agents of the Virginia
Coal Briquetting Company, having en-
tire charge of the sales OF anthracite
coal briquetteS manufactured in Rich
mond by the above company, under the
"liite Patent" the only successful coal
binder in the world, and the briquettes
manufactured under this patent are
Iast becoming big factor in the coal
trade of Richmond. and are solving tho
problem of high cost of coal" by the
discovery OF a better fuel at less

The smokeless and. splint coal mines

the very heart OF the smokelcss and
kanawha districts of West Virginia,

Their anthracite mines arc in the
famous Schuylkill region of Pennsyl-
vania, from which comes the highest
quality of anthracite coal in tho coun-
try.

AS TO HARNESS MAKING
Benjamin r. Crump CO., Inc, Has Made
Richmond Harness Headquarters
for the South.

a large part of the credit for MAX
ing Richmond the harness centre Of the
South and bringing to this city n big
slice of the business which formerly
went to the cities OF tho North and
the West, belongs TO Benjamin T.
Crump Co., Inc.
| 1t is relatively young company,
only twelve years old. In July, 1910.
the company was rcorganized after the
death of Benjamin T. Crump. and the
business taken over by the new con-
Germ with the following officers: John
NJ Wyatt, president; L. A. Stanford,
vice president; p. a. Seaton, secretary
treasurer.
/ The Crump Company operates a
splendidly equipped plant for produc-
Ing quality harness, saddles and all
strap work pertaining to the horse.
They are also one of the largest job
bers In saddlery hardware, robes and
| blankets
During g. past five years the sales
OF the Benjamin T. Crump Co. have
more than tripled. and their gains in
Inc last three years have been greater
| than those OF any manufacturer In the
south. The territory covered by this
company includes the States of Vir
GINA. North and South Carolina.
Georgia, Florida and Alabama.
| They report splendid business this
season, in the face OF the fact that the

port dizziness in the harness line.
Richmond has good reason TO be
proud OF concerns like the above, which
are building big success OH the firm
foundation OF quality. service and pro-
gressiveness.
