Ar j riving as it did on November 1, 1017 i it was one of the first of our com-: , bat divisions to participate in active j operations. After a period of. train ling which lasted through the middle I of February, 1018; it entered the* i Luneville sector in Lorraine and I shortly afterwards took up a posi tion in that part ot the line near , IJaccarat. In July it magnificently showed its fighting ability in the Champagne-Marne defensive at which time units from the 42nd Division aided the French in completely re-! i pulsing the German attack. Follow-!

A STUOENT Kl)K<il.AK Held for Knterinjc Homo of Hanker j at St. (ivurKf St. George, May 17.? Confessing that he entered the home of C. D, Dukes, cashier of the First National hank, for the purpose of robbery, A, II. Caldwell, a student in the law de partment of the University of South < arolina, giving Florida originally an his home, is in the county ja-i! chapp ed with the crime. Attracted by a noido which she be lieved was due to tho falling of somo object in tho home, Mrs. C. 1). Dukes arose shortly after midnight this morning to determine the eause of tho wound ami was confronted by a mask ed man at ono of the rear windows flourishing a revolved of largo Cali ber. Tho man ordered her U> keep quiet. Mrs. Dukes had not awaken ed .Mr. Dukes when she got up as she did not feel that the noise indi cated anything serious but foiling to heed >he warning of the intruder, screamed. Her calls brought tho .banker to Uhe assistance of his wife. ?Mr. Dukes, after seizing. his revolve? v, started in pursuit of the masked man, ?who by tfypt time had left. the win dow where he was first seen by Mrs. Dukes, and was attempting to enter the front door. There he was con fionted by Mr. Dukes, a pistol, duel followed, Mr. Dukes firing twice and his assailant tihree or four shots. Tho front of tho house bears definite tes timony to the exchange of shots, the glass front of the door being shat tered. The mark of another bullet j was found just above the door. As son as the alarm had been given a number of citizens under the direction of Deputy Sheriff ,T. L. pint^t instituted a search for tho guilty party: George W. Lindstedt, inspec tor of the state highway department, was one of the first to reach the scene' and rendered great assistance in ap-l prehending the man charged with the crime. Sheriff (). B. Umehouse, al though confined to his bod on account of illness, got in touch with the situa" tfon from his home in Sumntefville land immediately sent special officers I Clayton, Pointcl and ?), W. Mosso'vv to the assistance of Deputv Sheriff PJfttt. Bloodhounds in charge of officers Forbes and Chandler df Sumter reach ed here shortly after the crime had been committed, but CaldweLl had ?been apprehended before their ar-j rival. They wore, however, put on j the trail which led through' different 1 [streets und ended at the rear of the] | .First National Bank where Caldwell I had parked his car. The starting of! 'the ear at the rear of the bank had ' attracted attention of searchers and j resulted in the capture of Caldwell, ! who was overtaken on Main street. ' When- first questioned the student | denied any connection with the crime; 1 later, however, he made' a full confes- j sion, officer^ reported, in the presence \ of Deputy Sheriff Piatt and the of ficers from Sumter. Ho was persuad ed, he said, to commit the deed by an j accomplice, whose name he did not < know. The shooting, he claimed, was j done by the other person. Officers, however, are not disposed to accept his statement that he had assistance. When apprehended Cald well had a red handkerchief tied about his wrirft and at that time it was not thought that he had been wounded. An examination by physicians after he had been piaced in jail showed, however, that he had received a slight bullet wound in Che arm. In addition) to the revolver and handkerchief he j bad a pair of scissors, a mirror, a j ball of stout cord and about 2f> car- j fridges. There were several pieces, t of the cord of different lengths which had been looped in such a way as tot indicate that it was intended to be j used in haste. Caldwell, taken before Mr. Dukes, was identified as the person attempt ing; to enter his house. The intruder at t.he time of the attempted robbery wore a moustache and as a mask a red handkerchief, such as that found in Caldwell's borrowed ear. Early this morning a set of false moustaches was found in the Pukes yard. When returned to the Dukes home it was noticed that he was dropping car tridges to the ground and attempting to bury them with his feet. In hit confession the man stated that his father had recently killed ills son-in-law and seriously wounded his daughter in Florida and a news paper clipping in the man's grip, which was found near the intersection of the Waltertxyro and Orangeburg roads, about six miles from St. George, bears out this statement. The 1 H r -Wr V RCFFIANS INJURE WOMAN I ?!> Affair on Road Between Char* lotto iiikI Rook Hill Rook Hill, May 20.-? Mrs. H. I* Simpson, wife of a prominent farmer of this section, lies seriously and per haps fatally injured her skull frac tured in two places as the result of having he on struck by a large atone alleged to have been hurled through the windshield of the automobile in whieh she and her husband wore rid ing about 1 o'clock Wednesday morn ing, according to the report of eity and police officers, who are conduct ing an investigation. The affair occurred at a point about one mile from the eity on the Rock Hill-Charlotte highway, as Mr. and Mrs. Simpson with their small child were returning to their home from Charlotte. A crowd of perhaps a dozen men, alleged by officers to have been drunk, were said by the investigators to have been engaged in a drunken brawl and to have hurled the rooks as the ear passed. Mr. Simpson escaped injury but fclass from the broken windshield painfully lacerated the child's face, it was said. One arrest has already been made, officers said, and addition al arrests are expected. 'The large rock, bloodstained and weighing more than two pounds, ?s held as evidence. Public Health Notes During the mouth of April l(jr> visits were "made. At this time much of the work is toward trying to pre vent sickness among the babies and young children. Carelesseness re 'garding feeding of young children and lack of right care when sick help to (raise the already high death rate. At present the Public Health Nurse will be In ?e town of Kershaw every Friday, anu in Bethuno every Wednes day. This gives the people of these communities an opportunity to know a definite time when they can consult -her. Another child has been taken to Columbia and is under the care of Dr. Boyd. It is interesting to know i that 35 crippled children have had the opportunity during the past few I years of receiving orthopedic treat ment. Anyone who has a crippled child can have him examined or treat ed if necessary through Dr. Boyd's j clinic. j Special nourishment Cor some of ! our sick has been furnished through | the co-operation of the ladies of our j local churches. This summer we are to have both a tuberculosis clinic and a child hy giene clinic, the dates of which will be published later. MRS. LOUISE M. BROWN, Public .Health Nurse. 1 General Walker Seeks Data 1 Gen. C. Irvine Walker, GO Tradd ! street, Charleston, engaged by the I general ussembly to compile data re ! garding South Carolina troops in the ^Confederate army, requests that per sons having information relating to ?the following commands eommuni with, him by mail: Palmetto Light Artillery, Captain Hugh Garden, which had a most dis tinguished career.

He stated that he was i without funds and was trying to get money with whic'h to get to his home in Florida on account of the tragedy referred to in the newspaper clip pings. He had about $3 when appre hended. Caldwell ?avo evidence of being ill in the jail. Early this morning phy sicians were summoned but there is 1 no indication that hTs condtilon Is se rious. Early this evening ho was ap parently in a comwroRC state. He re fused to recognize anyone but wheth er this condition is feigned or genu ine has not been determined. Caldwell came to St. George about a year ago, giving his home as Flor ida and, after staying here several months and creating the impression that he was well supplied with money, entered the University of South Car olina as a special law student. I? a ?Columbia newspaper story a ' few months ago, he was heralded us the thousandth student to enter the uni versity this year. He is about 2d yeai'g old and of rather pleasing: ad dress. Since his ear was parked at thn rear of the bank it i* thought thai the purpose of the intruder was to force Wt. Dnkes to accompany him to the hank and turn over to him such money as was available. Even though this had been done, he could not have accomplished such purpose, as all the cash wfcs in (the vault, which la provided with a time !o$k and *ven Mr. Duke* himself conk! not open it until th? time ^rrWed tor t* t* open.
