FIGHTING TUBERCULOSIS.
State Health Officer Wants Every
County to Have Hospital.

Three hundred and eighty cases Of
tuberculosis have been reported to
the State board of health this year
from 81 of the "A counties in the
State. Orangeburg county had IA re-
ported, being fourth in the counties
of the State rated according to the
number reported.
A STEP h<wever, toward its control
was taken last year by the legislature
through its appropriation of $4,000
for the erection of a tuberculosis hos
pital, which is to be located at State
Park, near Columbia. The founda-
tons and framework OF the ward
have been finished, and it is thought
that it will be ready for occupancy by
the end of February. The building
Of the hospital was placed in the
hands of the State board of health.
"This hospital" writes James A.
Hayne, N. D., State health officer, "is
small beginning, but one that we
believe the State will foster. We be-
lieye that the time is coming when
tuberculosis viii; not be the scourge
it now is to humanity, but that day
is yet far in the future We believe
that each county should have hos
pital for the care of advanced cases
Of tuberculosis and that the central
hospital, of which we have a begin
ming at State park, should be school
Of instruction to all threatened by !
this disease. The trio of fresh air, !
sunshine and good food is the only
cure, but these must be intelligently /!
applied"

WHAT FRANCE WANTS.
Premier Viyiani Tells When Nation

Premier yiviani in his declaration
at the opening of the French parlia-
ment Tuesday, outlined the policy OF
France as embracing but a single
tenet-"prosecu Of the war with
out mercy until such time as we can
accomplish the definite liberation Of
Europe"
The ministerial declaration was
loudly cheered and no opposition to
any of the governments acts devel-
oped during the short sitting. Par
ticular enthusiasm greeted tributes TO
allies of France and declarations that
the war must be pushed to Success
full end. no matter what its severity
or duration.
France, acting in accord with her
allies, Will not sheath the sword un-
til she has taken vengeance for out
ragged right; until she has annexed

HAD NO WIRELESS.
British Embassy Gives Out Informa'
tion About Canal Neutrality.

Col. Goethals, governor Of the
Canal Zone, according to informa-
ton to the British embassy Saturday,
which WIS communicated to the state
department, has found that the Brit
ish collier, which was thought to
have violated the neutrality of Pana-
ma zone waters by sending wireless
message, actually had no wireless
equipment. It is understood the mes
sage was sent by another British
ship, which, however, was outside the
three-mile limit. Al the embassy. this
statement was issued:
According to a telegram received
from the British minister at Panama,
a British ship employed as collier of
the British government. arrived at
Panama without bill Of health and
was indicted for violation of quar-
antine regulations and was condemn
ed by the court to pay - nominal fine
of $50. At Balboa she received Or
ders to leave at once and being gov
erment ship had to choose between
violation Of neutrality rules or vio-
.lation of custom laws, by leaving
without clearance papers, which she
had not received. She left at once.
The clearance papers were ready, but
she had not time to wait for them.
''She was also accused of having
used her wireless in Canal Zone
limits. AS she had no wireless teie-
graphy installation the governor Of
the zone IN a written communication
admitted that he had been misinform-
ed"

Jemtchug had right to expect. Here
they lay in a harbor with fully ten
minutes warning that hostile ship
was approaching, yet they allowed
that ship to enter the harbor, steam
round 1t, turn, and make her escape
without so much as firing a shot,
when, il the had gone into action,
the Emden could hardly have escap-
ed. The range was everything they
could have desired.
What vas the matter? Why did
they remain silent? The answer Is
this: Although it was time Of war
a large percentage of tlG officers OF
these ships had been allowed TO re-
main ashore over night. Not one OF
the ships had steam up. Their decks
were not even cleared for action. Yet
even taking this into consideration 1t
is inexplicable that when two or three
torpedoes from any one of them
would have saved the day, none was
fired. The ships need not have moved
an inch to have done so. The range
was ridiculously short-less than 200
yards at one time. But surprise, lack
of discipline, and general ineficiency
seemed to hold them paralyzed.
The prevailing opinion here is that
they did not wish to draw the En-
den's fire on themselves-although
one did use her machine gun toward
the end of the engagement. What
ever is said, however, it is impos-
sible to get away from the fact that
the French navy yesterday sustained
a blow to it's efficiency that it will
take long time to wipe out. Theirs
was "masterly inaction' caused by
something which they do not attempt
themselves to define. Both army and
navy commanders here are one in
their contemptuous condemnation OF
such e. spectacle.

DIR. DUNCAN's WORK.
orangeburg Pastor Tolls IN Literary
Field.

2
The many friends Of the Rev. Wat
son 3. Duncan, D. D., pastor OF st.
Paups church of ;Orangeburg, are
gratifed at the recognition that has,
come to- his literary work recently.
During this year two additional books
have appeared from his pen and both
have received much attention and
praise. One book is the revised edi-
ton of his Twentieth Century
Sketches" recently issued by The
State company as publishers. This
volume was brought out at the re-
quest of the South Carolina confer
ence, Methodist Episcopal church,
South, and at the recent session the.
conference unanimously recommend
ed the book and paid high comph-
ment to its merits. One intelligent
Iayman made the remark that he
would not be without his copy for
SO. Several hundred copies OF the
book were sold within about ten days
after it came from the press. The.
publishers did a splendid piece OF
work on the book. It Is almost IN
eyitabie to the intelligent laymen oe
the State who wish to know the mem-
bers Of the Sc nth Carolina confer
ence.
The other book from the pen Of Dr..
Duncan is t'Studies in Methodist Lit
erature," just issued by the publish,
ing house of the church at Nashville,
Tenn. The book has been adopted as
a study course book for the Epworth
leagues of the Methodist Episcopal,
church, South. This Is high conn
mendation for the merits Of the book
and will insure large circulation
for it.
DR.. Duncan has wonderful capacity
for work. He has what is perhaps
the heaviest charge in the South Car
olina conference and does not neglect
any department Of the work, and yet
some how or other finds time to- do
considerable literary work. The in
PRODUCTION to Studies in Methodist
Literature was written by DR.. II. y.
Snyder of Wofford college and in this
introduction DR.. Duncan's work Is
very. highly commended.
DR.. Duncan book, Immortality
and Modern Thought" which was is
sued while he was pastor OF Bethel
church, Charleston. is having a good
sale. It was published by the pub
fishers of The Hilbert Journal, Bos-
ton, Mass.

WANTS CAPTURED LANDS
JAPANESE WANT TO COLONIZE
THE GERMAN ISLANDS.
London Morning Post Prints Interest
Ing Correspondence From Toxic
lingo Press Assails United States.

That there is a strong feeling in
Japan for the retention Of captured
territory which has cost them much
blood and treasure is evidenced by q
mail dispatch from the London Morn
ing Posts Toxic correspondent. He
writes that ships have already set out
for the South Sea Islands to inves-
tigate colonization possibilities. In
view of this sentiment, the interests
Of Japan and Australia assume i'm
portance.
Under date of November 10 the
Morning Posts correspondent, dis
cussing Japan's attitude on Using Tau
and the islands in the Pacific, says:
''In order to appreciate the Japa-
nese point of view, the whole OF the
circumstances must be fully consid-
cred. In western countries empha-
sis appears to be laic on the terms OF
Japan's ultimatum to Germany,
promising to return the territory to
China on condition that Germany re-
linquished her hold without force.
But Germany did not surrender with
out much cost to Japan. Thus the
circumstances from the japanese
point of view are entirely altered.
"The reduction of Tsingtau has
cost Japan good deal in blood and
money. There is also the further out
lay Of policing the Pacific with a
widely scattered feet.
From all that has been said it is
clear tina. the genera, feeling IN
Japan is that none Of the German
possessions captured can be lightly
released. In any case Japan can not
relinquish them without a Quid pro
quo.
"But, owing to the tendency to.
! ward apprehension in the United
States, such questions are not yet
open to discussion, though the jingo
press has not hesitated to parade its
views, even to a sensational degree
The one thing the vernacular press
