AHies' Wounded Suffering
TOR Want of Hospitals

London - The hospital accommoda-
lions In Northern France are INSULT
cient TO cope with the number ~
wounded being received, according to
medical correspondent Of the Times.
Writing from BouIogne the corres-
pondent says:
The hospitals are full but the
stream Of wounded continues and will
continue The plain facts are that the
hospital accommodations In Northern
France are insufficient. The policy of
shipping as many wounded as possible
to England is being pushed to dan
gerous extreme.
There Is great and serious lack
OF efficient and experienced surgeons
and nurses. A great majority of the
wounds are caused by shrapnel. They
become infected quickly and demand
surgical treatment of the most thor
ough character. With these cases
time is a big factor. It is dangerous
In most cases to subject the patient to
a long trip TO England.
Many more hospitals must be es-
tablished in hotels, casinos and houses
behind the firing line. Surgeons of
long experience must be sent. Finally.
antiseptic surgery must be practiced
and not aseptic surgery. The latter.
which aims at cleanliness without the
use OF germ-killing substances, is use
less where infected wounds are con-
cerned. Yet there are good reasons
Tor believing 1t to be widely practiced.
Here Is where surgeons of wide
experience are needed rather than
young hedglings. The same holds true
Of numerous delicate operations.

Poor But Proud.

A lady who is a district visitor
became much interested in the very
poor but apparently respectable
Irish family named Curran, living in
slum district of her parish.
Every time she visited the Currans
she was annoyed blythe staring and
the whispering of the other women
living in the building. One day she
said to Mrs. Curran:
Your neighbors seem to be very
curious to know who I am, and the
nature of my business with YOU"
They do," asquiesced Mrs. Cur
ran.
do they ask you about it?''
"Indade they do, ma'am.'
And do you tell them?'

What do you tell them?"
"Oi, just tell them," was the calm
reply, that you are me dressmaker:

DR.. Brabham to Move.

Cope, Feb. 16.-The members OF
Union Sunday-school were very
much surprised, yesterday afternoon
when DR.. V. w. Brabham, their
beloved superintendent, announced
that he had handed in his resigna-
ton and would have to give up con-
nection with the school on account
of going elsewhere. The doctor
thanked the school for their hearty
cooperation and told them that his
connection witty it had been one OF
the most enjoyable periods of his life.
DR.. Brabham has, by his faithful
ness and executive ability, brought
the school up to a high state of eff
cheney, and he is going to be great
ly missed, and his place is going to
be hard to fill.
DR.. V. w. Brabham will in the
near future leave Cope for Orange
burg, where he goes to follow his
profession as a practicing physician.
1t is understood that DR.. Ed. Kirk
land, of Bamberg, will come over and
work in the field vacated by Dr.
Brabham.
The Cope Pharmacy Co., incorpo-
rated, will do business here in the
future. instead of the Cope Phar-
macy, as heretofore. The promoters
of the new company are DR.. '. w.
Brabham, Dr.. Ed. Kirkland, and Mr..
Joe L. HERS, formerly of Ehrhardt.
Little Lynn Brabham came near
being seriously or badly burned on
yesterday morning. He was standing
before the fire warming when his
gown caught fire. His older brother,
Lovelace, who was lying in bed, but
was awake, ran to his assistance, and
smothered the flames before they ran
up on his body He was slightly
burned about the legs. y

Ehrhardt Etchings.--,

Ehrhardt, February 23.-Ehr-
hardt added one more to the list of
homicides for Bamberg county on
last Friday. In row between Lucky
Williams and J. D. Pauls, two ne
groes employed by the Hacker Man
ufacturing Co., Pauls stabbed Will
iiams to the heart with a pocket
knife. From the evidence it seems
that Pauls struck the first blow at
Williams back. After the killing
Pauls walked calmly down Main
street. To look at him one would
have thought that nothing at all had
happened. But he didn't go far be-
fore Chief Priester had nabbed him.
Sheriff Ray came over Friday after
noon and took Pauls to the county
Jail.
Mr.. G. H. C. Park, student at the
Lutheran Theological Seminary,
preached here Sunday morning. He
delivered a most excellent sermon.
Mr. Park has been here before and
he has certainly made lot Of friends.
The two churches, Ehrhardt, and Mt.
Pleasant, are seriously contemplating
calling him here when he finishes at
the seminary.
Mr.. W. F. HERS, wife and child,
of Florence, are visiting relatives in
town.
Mrs. J. A. Chassereau had very
painful accident last Sunday night
as she was on her way to church.
She stepped off the sidewalk and in
falling she shattered her leg just

protruding from the flesh. She was
carried to Charleston to-day to the
hospital for an operation.
Several of our townsfolk went to

ROBBERS HOLD UP TRAIN.
Three Men Rob Passengers Near
Birmingham.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 1e.--
Queen & Crescent passenger train
No. 1, New York to New Orleans,
running 40 minutes late, was held up
tonight at 1O45 o'clock, about 2
miles north of here by three masked
robbers, who secured four sacks Of
registered mail, said to have contain
ed about $4,000.
At Alfalfa three men boarded the
engine, and one and one-half miles
south of Alfalfa held up the engine
crew at the point of revolvers. They
then ran the train to within five
miles Of Irondale, where they forced
the crew to uncouple the mail and ex-
press cars.
They ran the express car down the
tracks for mile and then forced the
crew to uncouple the mail car. The
engine was taken further south and
derailed. The robbers then entered
the mail car and covered the five
clerks. They asked for the chief
clerk and demanded the registered
mail. The clerk replied that he had
none. He was slightly cut on the left
shoulder, upon attempting resistance.
The robbers ransacked the car and
secured the registered mail books.
They then took the New York, New
Orleans registered mail and decamp-
ed, leaving one sack containing S1O,-
900 behind. The express car was
not molested.
Birmingham officials of the road
were notified of the hold up and a
special train rushed officers and
bloodhounds to the scene. No trace
of the robbers was found and the Of
ficers are now in pursuit.

WOULD GUST CUURLEY
Says it is Impossible to be Mayor Of,
Boston and Representative.

Washington, Feb. 23.-Wheth-
James NJ. Curley, mayor of Boston,
and on the rolls of congress as
representative from the 18th Mas
sachusetts district, shall be permit
ted to hold both offices, was to-day
put squarely up to congress by Re-
publican Leader Mann. A resolution
introduced by Mr.. Mann set forth
that 1.-The Offices of mayor and re-
preventative in congress are incom-
patible, and it is impossible for one
man to perform the duties of both,
and proposed that Mr.. Curley's seat
be declared vacant.
At the suggestion Of Democratic
Leader Underwood, Representative
Mann agreed that the resolution
should go to the judiciary commit
tee without debate.
The Curley case has been discussed
for weeks about the sapitol. Mr.. Cur
ley drew his monthly salary as q
congressman on February 4, two
days after he took the oath of office
as mayor of Boston.
It was said that he indicated at
the time his intention of holding
both Offices until the end of the pre-
sent session of congress to redeem
pledges made to the people of his
district and to save Boston the ex-
pense of special election to name
his successor.
1t was recalled to-day that Re
preventative Lilley, after being
elected governor of Connecticut some
years ago, and Gen. Joseph Wheeler,
of Alabama, after being commission
ed a major general of volunteers IN
the Spanish war, tried unsuccess-
fully to hold their seats in congress.
