VIII Show Film Thursday.

The moving picture film. indicating
methods of preventing intantile para
lysis which the State board of health
has leased from New York, will be
shown at the Ideal theatre Thursday.
After it has been used in the theatres
for white people, it will be thrown
on the screen for negroes in theatres
operated by this race. DR.. Coward is
making efforts through the county
and city boards of health to have the
nlm screened in strategical points
throughout the State, so that the in
formation provided may be generally
disseminated. 1t is probable that the
picture will be, exhibited for several
days in Columbia

DIR. FiShburne Writes.

Answering an inquiry from The
State, Skottowe B. Fishburne, M. D,
city health officer of Columbi" writes
as follows from New York, wuere he
went to study methods used there
against the epidemic:
"The situation in regard to infan-
tile paralysis seems unchanged. There
seems to be about the same number Of
new cases and deaths each day. There
are so very many cases Of so exceed
fngly mild type, almost entire obscure
of prominent symptoms, that it is
necessarily hard to check the spread.
Cases are frequently 4S to 72 hours
i'll before they are recognized or even
seen.
There is to be a conference OF
leading men from various parts of
the country next Thursday. That
may help some. If it were possible
to give preventative vaccine or
serum the problem would be easy.
Home next Thursday night"

"DUTCH NEATHER PROPHET"
CELEBRATED G&TH BIRTHDAY
The State, July 81.

The State, July 81.
William Preston HoUseal. alias the
Dutch Nealaer Prophet was 10
years Old Yesterday celebrating the
anniversary BY going 10 church. Mr..
Houseal was born in 1896, the same
year the cornerstone of the state CAPT
TO! was laid. Work had begun on
this building six years previously, bu.
insecure foundations compelled aban
d0nment. and reconstruction Of base
ments was undertaken in 1853. The
building was incomplete With the ad-
vent of the War Between the Sections,
it being without roof or floor when
Sherman marched upon Columbia.
Marks may yet be seen on the west
ern walls from shells thrown from
the Brookland side Of the river. Only
ore building is slid to have graced
the western bank of the Congaree at
tha- time This is said to have been
destroyed by Sherman. The reason
ascribed that the bombardment Of the
capitol walls was not continued until
they crumbled was that Sherman
didn't have the powder to spare. The
roof Of the state house was lifted by
a severe windstorm April l, 1854.
Mr.. Houseal was named for Pres
ton Brooks. who caned Charles Sum-
ner in the United States senate cham
Der in 1856.
Newberry college, which institu-
ton has always been closely linked
with the life of rNr. Houseal, was es-
tablished the year Mr.. Houseal was
born.

Johnson. president o. the Johnson
Lighcerage company, owner OF the
munition barge Both declared the
fire originated in TWO Lehigh Valley
railrod freight cars laden With eX-
plosives.
Johnson. who was arrested on a
warrant charging manslaushter, as
were Albert NJ. Bickman. Black Tom
agent of the Lehigh Valley, and Alex
ander Davidson, superintendent OF the
National Storage company, denied all
responsibility for the confagration.
He mtimated that the fire was of in
cendiary origin.
Prosecutor Huisperth corroborated
Johnson's story He said he had OBJ
tanned an affidavit from the command
er Of the Tug Geneva which gave a
comprehensive story of the disaster.
According to the affidavit and 9TH
er evidence said the prosecutor, the
fire started two hours before the
Johnson barge was destroyed and it
was not this barge that caused the
great explosion. The fire spread from
freight cars to warehouses and the
barge. The captain of the Geneva
was towing away another barge, said
to have been loaded with a tremen
dously high explosive, acting upon
orders of a Lehigh Valley official,
when the barge, which had shown no
sign of being afre, exploded This
was the first explosion and the ons
that was most severe"
Later in the day a warrant was is
sued for the arrest on charge Of
manslaughter of Edmund L. Macken-
zie of Plainfeld, N. j., president Of
the National Storage company, whose
plant on Black Tom was destroyed.
Plate glass insurance underwriters
voted at a meeting here today to re-
place at once all windows shattered
by the explosion. It is estimated that
the plate glass loss in Manhattan,
Brooklyn and New Jersey was $1OOO,-
600.

In Clash With Bandits Near
Fort Hancock.

San Antonio, July 31.-CarranEa
and United States troops fought side
by side in an engagement with Mexi-
can bandits south of Fort Hancock,
Texas, early today, according to tue
official report from Brig. Gen. Bell,
Jr., at Ell Paso, to Major Gen. Fun
ston tonight. The incident marked
the first time Carranza troops have
cooperated in pursuit of bandits on
American soil.
After the bandits had been sun,
rounded in ranch house on the
American side of the Rio Grande
River and an American customs guard
had been killed, another customs
guard, named Beane, ran down to the
river bank and called to a detachment
OF Carranza soldiers on the Mexican
side to come over and assist the
american troops.
A captain and eight soldiers re-
sponded. They joined in the fighting,
which soon became general. so,.,,
the report says, the bandits fed the
ranch house and retreated over the
river, leaving behind four dead.

Private John Twoney, F. Troop, Sth
United States Cavalry, and Robert
Wood, customs guard Sergt Lewis
Thompson, F. Troop, Sth United States
cavalry, was seriously wounded. He
was made the target of three bullets.
The report to Gen. Funston does not
make clear the manner in which the
fight, which took place about 1:3O
a. M, began, nor does it indicate the
object of the bandits in crossing to
the American side Gen. Funston said
it was possible, however, that the
bandits, when surprised by the Amer
leans. were attempting to escape from
the Carranza troops, who later en-
gagged in the battle
The latter had been in pursuit of
the marauders for several days.
