) BATTLEFIELD FATALITIES I
Erom the New York Sun

From the New York Sun.
DIR. Simon Baruch, who was a surgeon
attached to Il confederate regiment during
the civil war. and who has made a study
of wounds and diseases common to the
gle. records some impressions about the
comparative dangers of war AS 1t was
waged so years ago and as il is age to-
day. He recalls that after the battle of
Gettysburg he had six fatal cases OF te-
tanus and many cases of gangrene. Those
diseases are still the cause of much loss of
life among soldiers. He believes also the
modern rifle bali is as frequently fatal AS
the ball used during the civil war. The
mimic ball. which was used 30 years ago.
victim. The modern bali is small and
pointed, makes Il small. clean hole. and is
said to be far less likely to result fatally.
modern method of fighting makes the
pointed ball as dangerous as the MIME
ball. In the trenches most soldiers are
struck on the head, because this is the
likely to be fatal, for next to the small
area over the heart. this is the most vul-
ing. such as was the rule during the civil
war. soldiers We're more often struck
about the legs or arms.
The modern bayonet is a cruel instru-
ment. 1t is larger than the old bayonet.
and while during the civil war many sol
diers who had been run clean through the
chest. survived, a thrust from the bayonet
used today is generally fatal. The mod
ern war surgeon has one advantage over
his predecessor which is OF inestimable
value. During the civil war. for instance,
methods of probing for bullets were very
primitive. The surgeon could no nothing
but fish blindly for the bullet. and often
he had no instrument hut his fingers. The
modern surgeon brings the X-ray into
play and. after locating the bullet, goes
straight for 1T. In the civil war hundreds
Of soldiers were lost during the search for
bullets imbelded In them. In fact, DIR.
Baruch says the old method OF examining
wounds was quite often more fatal to
the patient than the wounds themselves.
During the civil war pneumonia vas

that patients in tents did better than those

had been Communicated for hospital pur-
poses. This open air treatment is still in
vogue, and the proportion of soldiers who
succumb to pneumonia is no larger than
during the last years of the civil war. In
the case of typhoid fever. which. accord

wonderful Improvement. Preventive moe
ulation has practically conquered this

NO BUREAU OF INFORMATION
Stranger Possibly Resented Fact That
He Had Been Caused Some In
convenience to Ascertain Time.

On one Of the recent stormy nights
a man was fastening home with his
overcoat buttoned up to his neck. He
was rather anxious to know what time
it was, but he was too lazy to unbut-
ton his coat in order to get at his
watch.
Just then he saw a man of we'll
dressed appearance coming in the
distance, and remarked to himself:
I'll ask this gentleman the hour OF
the night, and so save myself the
trouble of unbuttoning my coat"
He perceived that the stranger was
buttoned up just as he was. When he
came up, the nan who wanted to know
the time touched his hat politely and
said:
Sir, do you know what time it is?"
The stranger paused, removed his
right glove, unbuttoned his ccat from
top to bottom, unbuttoned his under
coat, and finally pulled out his watch.
while the cold wind beat against his
unprotected chest.
Holding up the watch SO that the
light would shine upon it. he scrutin-
lied it an instant, aud said:
"Yes!"
Then he passed on without another
word.

dog down, II of the men let it fall
into the water.
When the captain entered the boat
he saw the dog swimming toward the
submarine. Without hesitation he
jumped overheard and swan almost a
quarter of a mile before he could over

he placed him on his shoulders, and
as the submarine had by this time
