Some Sidelghts on Omaha's
" Lnvasion of the Twin Cities

The entire Gross Brothers team
was on the job to root for the Muir
phys. When the Gross Brothers
originally scheduled to battle the
Omahans, were given the gate at the
last moment so the Class A team
could play the Class B lads,
the Gross crew became peeved and
promptly lined up with Omaha.
George Kennedy, Armour manager,
played first with split digit. He had
it all bandaged up. Kennedy tried
Miller out at first during the prac-
tice, but Miller had never played first
in his life and he didn't learn any
more about it during the practice SO
Kennedy took the job himself and
played bangup game. -
Weiss Corcoran lived up to expec-
tations by lacing out three hits. Weiss
has hit safely in every game he has
played this year. Some record.
A gent named Portal umpired be-
hind the bat in both games. Graves
and Mccoy both had to split the GEN.

Bill Fox, who played second base
and managed the Rourkes decade
ago, was one of the speakers at the
banquet at the Athletic club. Bill is
working for the telephone company
in the twin cities. Five-minute talks
was the program so Bill tried to make
speech and it took him half an hour
to sit down again. Evidently Bill had
practiced the Hugo because he dis
charged some beautifulNwords.
Roland Peterson, the cerubic mas
cot for the Murphys, was the hit OF
the Athletic club banquet. He gave a

CANADA TEARS UP RAILS FOR
ALLIES USE.

One of the numerous ways in
which Canada has shown its readi-
ness to meet emergencies created by
the war, Is in tearing up long sect
ions of railway track in the Domin-
ion, to provide the allied forces on
the western front in Europe with
needed transportation lines, accord
ing to the March Popular Mechanics
Magazine. The plan for collecting
the rails, as reported from Ottowa,
contemplated the removal of some
800 miles of railroad
sidings in the East and also along
stretches of track between Edmon-
ton and the Pacific coast where two
railways run parallel, the traffic Of
both lines to be accommodated on
the remaining route. The plan, il
was said, owed its origin to the Bril-
fish government. which intimated
that prompt action of this kind
would probably save thousands of
lives, and that new rails could not be
obtained because of the demand for
steel in making munitions. 1t was
estimated in Ottowa that over 1000
miles of Canadian track would be
torn up in response to the appeal.

HEALING WOUNDS BY WASH
ING AND BY MATHEMATICS

Undoubtedly the most important
medical discovery made during the
war is that of Doctor. Carrel, Of the
Rockefeller Institute, who, working
at hospital maintained by the in
stitute at Compiegne-iust behind
the battle line in northern France
has perfected a method Of steriliz-
ing wounds. so effacious that. Of the
hundreds Of patents that have SO far
been treated by 1t, only one has died.
And this one, 1t is interesting to
!, know, did not succumb to original
shell wound in the back of which
he was brought to the hospital. but
to a violent attack OF pneumonia in
duced by his exposing himself to an
open window in the absence Of his
attendant.
To effect the complete sterilization
of wound Doctor Carrel came to
the conclusion that 1t would be nee
essary to carry the antiseptic to all
parts, rather than only to the sur
face, as has been the case with the
practices hitherto followed. For this
purpose an apparatus was perfected,
consisting Of a glass receptacle, Of
about 2-quart capacity, to be sus-
pending several feet above the bed on
which the patient under treatment
is lying. and q rubber tube to carry
the solution to the wound. On
reaching the wound this tube divides
and subdivides--by means Of glass
joints and elbows--into smaller
tubes. which are buried in the torn
and lacerated flesh under treatment.
The small tubes are closed at the
ends and perforated at intervals of
every half inch or so with small
round holes. so that whenever the
solution IL allowed to enter them the
slight pressure which II 10 under
from the elevation Of the receptacle
above the bed forces II out into and
through ell parts of the wound. Any
excess OF the solution drains off

ton, and Is absorbed by bandages.
which are changed every time the
wound Is Enthusiastically about
every two hours.
The decrease OF the bacteria OF In

under treatment by this flushing"
method astonished even Doctor Car
rel and his assistants until they came
to take its continued success as
matter OF course. The bacteria are
simply killed and washed away,

American Ship Sunk
Without Warning

London, March, 14.-American
steamship Algonquin has been sunk
without warning by German sub
marine. The crew was saved.
The Algonquin was torpedoed at 6
o'clock on the morning of March IL.
The submarine refused assistance, ac-
cording to the report of the consul
at Plymouth. Twenty-seven men
have been landed.
According to later report from j..
G.. Stephens, American consul at Ply
mouth, the captain of the Algoquin
stated that his ship was sunk by
shellfre without warning.
According to later advices from
Plymouth, the German submarine
opened fire upon the Algonquin from
a distance OF 1000 yards, firing about
twenty shells. These were not suf-
ficient to sink the steamer, so she
was boarded by men from the sub
marines, who placed four bombs, and
the Algonquin was then blown up.
The crew was given plenty of time
to leave the vessel.
No Warning Given.
ut was just after daylight on Mon
day when we were attacked" said
the captain Of the Algonquin. as
quoted by the press association.
There was no warning. The sub
marines started to fire at a range of
three miles. When about twenty
five shells had been fired at the Al
gonquin, OF which four hit her for
