the Columbia plant is under the

who has been in Columbia about five
years, coming here from New York.
II" is native OF Germany, and has
been in this country about fifteen
years. Highly educated and with
thorough knowledge OF the business.
Mr. Schultz has met with wonderful
success in his management of the
Columbia plant and from all reports
II is a very profitable proposition.
Mr.. Schultz knows nothing of where
the product OF the plant goes-he
sells it to his New York representa-
tive, and that agent dispoScs of it to
the most profitable buyer, whether it
be Germany, England, France, Rus
sia or the United States. OF course,
Mr.. Schultz is a strong sympathizer
with his people, but he does not force
his opinions on other peOple-in fact,
he is a fine citizen and South Caro-

COLUMBIA MAKING MATERIALS
For War Operations---AIso Good

mammoth guns, which are so effect
i've in battering down fortifications,
and absorbent cotton, which is used
by doctors and nurses in the hos
pitfalls and on the battlcfields OF Eu-
rope in caring for the wounded sol
diers, are being manufactured in
Columbia. An order 5000. 900
pounds Of gun cotton was received
by a Columbia concern from the
New York representative of Great
Britain a few days ago, but the or
der had to be declined, for the plant
has a capacity Of only little over
100000 pounds per year
Comparatively few people in
South Carolina, and not very many
in Columbia know of the plant
which is turning out products which
are being used on the battleficlds in
Europe. This is the Southern Asep-
tic Laboratories, located within few
ards Of the peaceful Congarec river
and within a few blocks of the State
House. This plant is running day
and night and could sell many times
more products than its capacity. for
the European war has caused trc-
mcndOus activity in the manufacture
Of absorbent and gun cotton. This
is the only plant of its kind in the
South. There was little one in
Chattanooga, but it is not thought to
be running. There are only few
in the whole country.
Strictly speaking. it is not gun cot
ron than the plant turns out, bu) the
cotton bale, 800 pounds, which they
put up is bought by the governments
and then put through simple pro-
cess Of acid solution and chemicals
which give it the explosive qualities
Every time the Germans fire one Of
their i-centimctcr guns q bale of
this cotton is used, and every time
the English battleShip Queen Eliza
beth, now operating in the Darda-
nellcS, discharges one of her big guns
at the Turks. n bale Of this cotton is
consumed. 1t can easily be under
stood why there is so great a demand
for the cotton and why the Columbia
concern is bending all of its energies
to fill orders.
Made from LintcrS.
Gun cotton is made from linters,
which costs about four cents per
pound. The stained remnants are
bought by the Southern Aseptic Lab
oratOries and put through a cleaning
process. First it is boiled and
then passed through the cleaner, dry
ing and separating departments,
treated with an acid solution and
then comes out pretty and white and
is packed into bales of 500 pounds
each. \ 5O0-pound bale OF linters
will lose from 10 to % per cent when
made into 50O-pound bale of gun
cotton.
This same process is gone through
WI" III "N'''S ""o"ipNH' 'oUIoh' SA-
cept that 1t requires more treating
and more machinery, and hence costs
more to make it into absorbent cot
ton. The Columbia plant sells alb
"orhcAt cotton to hospitals through
ont the United States, and also sup
plies several big concerns, such as
the United Cigar stores and +. w.

BURNED TO DEATH IN HOME
MRS. EMMA EGGI.ESTON OF NE
HALEM, ORE, FORMERLY OF
RIPLEY, THE VICTIM

Word has been received by Mrs. Ar
lnenie Patnaude of Ripley Of the
accidental death of her daughter, Mrs.
Emma Eggleston of Nehalem, Ore, on
September %, when her home was de-
stroyed by fire and she was trapped in
the burning building. Mrs. Patnaude
received only a telegram relating the
bare facts and the exact cause is not
known: She was 30 years Of age.
Mrs. Eggleston was before her mar
riege Emma Patnaude. She lived with
her parents until she was married to
Fred Eggleston of Brainerd in 1898,
when she moved there. They moved to
Terry, Mont, 5 years ago and from
there they moved to Nehalem, Ore.
about two years ago.
It is not known whether three chill
dren in the family also met this fate
but it is not thought likely as the acc!'
~dent occurred during the day and the
,children were probably at school. The
children are Percy, aged II years, Ger
aid, aged 10 and Eva, aged 5. Besides
her husband and children the deceased
leaves her mother, Mrs. Armenie Pat

TRIED TO PASS A BAD CHECK
SUSPECT Is ARRESTED AT ST.
= CLOUD AND BOUGHT HERE
ID" FOR TRIAL

A man named James Smith was
hailed before Justice Randall yesterday
afternoon, charged with attempting to
pass bogus checks. He was brought
here Tuesday evening by Special Agent
Hubert Friesinger, who captured him
on the Winnipeg Flyer. County At
torney Rosenmeier was at Foley on le-
gal business yesterday and the case
was therefore continued until 'clock
last night. The county attorney had
not returned at the time Of going to
press and it is not likely that the hear
ing was held yesterday.
Smith was arrested on the east bound
Winnipeg Flyer Tuesday evening at
st. Cloud by N. P. Special Agent HUI
bert Friesinger, charged with attempt
ing to pass worthless checks. On the
morning train from the west Smith
tried to sell to farmer residing near
Wadena, check made out for several
hundred dollars, for $50.
After getting off the train at St.
Cloud Smith went to the Zapp State
bank, where he secured number of
blank checks. He returned here in the
afternoon. Detective Friesinger
watched for him and when the man
boarded the Winnipeg Flyer again on
Tuesday evening Friesinger suspected
him and arrested him at St. Cloud.
$Smith was identified by tn, brakeman
VINO was on the train at the time Of
the attempted swindle.
He was brought back here and lock-
Led up in the county Jail, but when con-
fronted the next morning was smooth
shaven. Friesinger was about to re-
lease the man, thinking tat he had
made mistake, but a search disclosed
a pocket knife which he had missed
when the man was searched. He said
