1 MARVELOUS OPERATION AT ROPER HOSPITAL, SURGEONS SEW UP GASH IN NE* /I *1 * C UITADT..P/ITIF.NT URV itiniH i-* Ubrina - DOING WELL. Five stitches were taken in the heart of Richard Bailey, colored,Saturday night at the Roper Hospital, the extraordinary operation being performed by Drs B Kater Mclnnes, Kivy Pearlstine and N B Edgerton. The wounded man was Sunday night reported to be doing very nicely, with excellent prospects for his recovery. Bailey was stabbed in the left breast by James Waring at Calhoun and Washington streets at about 7 o'clock Saturday night. A large pocket knife inflicted a very ugly wound, the heart being injured j by the point of the blade. A hurry j call for an ambulance was made and Bailey was rushed over to the hos pital, where the surgeons h&stened; preparations to operate on him. Waring made his escape and is being sought by the police. The wound was in Bailey's left centricle. It was about an inch in extent. The man was unconscious from the shock and from the loss of blood before reaching the hospital. An examination showed the grave nature of the wound and the surgeons decided that the only way to save his life was to sew up the nasty gash in the heart. This difficult operation was performed within half an hour after the man reached the hospital. It was stated that Bailey would recover, it being expected that his progress will be quite swift considering the nature of his wound. Because of the great amount of blood which the patient had lost and the resultant weakness, Dr Mclnnes decided to inject, through the man's vpins a nuantitv of normal salt solu tion.to replace the lost blood. After this was done and the man was made ready for the'' operation, the work done by Drs Mclnnes, Pearlstine and Edgerton was of the swiftest sort conceivable. One of them held his finger in the hole of the man's heart while the stitches were being taken, in order that the blood might not flow at each pulsation in the arteries. The operation is the first of its kind ever to have been performed successfully in Charleston and one of a very small number that have been performed successfully in the world. The surgeons did not care to discuss the operation, though they ad mitted that it was an extraordinary one. Unless complications set in? and none are anticipated?Bailey will leave the hospital as strong and vigorous as when he entered it on a stretcher Saturday night. The fact that the man is alive after an operation on his heart is considered most * remarkable and their colleagues congratulated the three young surgeons on the success of the delicate and dangerous operation. When the -i A.?i SUtcnes were miteii Daucy woa vcrjf | weak from the great loss of blood due to the break in his heart, but in order to save his life it was necessary to proceed immediately, every minute counting in the fight against death. ' Bailey and Waring had an altercation over a trifling matter, it is reported, and Waring tVrust the knife into Bailej's breast with evident intent to kill. The police were notified that a serious cutting affray had oc curred and, on arrival, found Bailey apparently dying. ?News & Courier. Changes in Parcel Post System. On Tuesday, July 1, two important changes went into effect at all postoffices. One of the new rules permits the sending of parcels COD. The other and most popular order is that regarding the interchanging of stamps. This order is to the effect that Darcel post stamps and regular letter stamps may be used inter-' changeably. In other words, one may use parcel post stamps on letters and letter stamps on parcels, a thing which has heretofore been prohibited.

I In your issue of June 26 appears an article designated "A Timely Admonition," and signed by "M C M." This article treats the observance of the Sabbath day, and in the cor- I rect observance of that day we are with him heart and soul. Six days shalt thou labor, is the command. The idler, be he pauper or millionaire, that don't labor is as 1 much guilty under the command- ^ ments as the murderer or thief, for t God says the violation of one of t these commands violates them all. The Sabbath is a day of rest for s man and beast, and he who puts his horse or mule in harness on the Sab- c bath dav and drives him, that is, \ works him, disobeys the command 1 a to honor the Sabbath day. Now, our Savior, forecasting what was to t come in our day, for He knew all j a. - ??\nol'irifT nf F tnat was 10 napprii, ojjcatvjjjft ui |. man in and out of the church, for' the church is the foundation of all | * our morality and religion, said. I ^ "They strain at a gnat and swallow * a camel." Again, "They teach for * doctrine the traditions of man." j Can't we see this in our day? What j, about the faith of the Presbyterian j church? Christ established no church. He gave only the doctrine Aj of religion. But one John Calvin ' established the Presbyterian church. ! He was simply a man, and yet got a following second to none, and today the doctrine of predestination is in- I vogue in our land. If this doctrine i is true then God is neither just or ( nnH we. as mortals, are < not responsible for our actions. v Now comes the Baptist with their 1 doctrine of immersion as the only 1 form of baptism. Who promulgat- F ed this doctrine we have no record. J No one seems to stand as father to | ^ that doctrine. Now, to what does it amount? Either baptism by immersion or sprinkling or pouring is 1 accepted by all denominations ex- v cept the Baptist. They may be 7 right or wrong, but they are in op- c position to the Christian world and I _ can't establish their doctrine from * the Bible. The Wal^enses adopted * that form and they have followed it. v John Wesley established the Meth- l odist church. He was of the opinion that the church of England or 1 Episcopal church was corrupt. Per- y haps he was right, but even his f church has degenerated, and as we infer, the ten commandments have been reduced to three, to wit,"Thou shalt not play cards, thou shalt not dance and thou shalt not drink ^ any liquor." This seems the Metnodist propoganda at present. Now come the Episcopalians with their doctrine of Apostolic succession in other words, that they have a monopoly of the doctrine of salvation. Christ states that those who were not opposed to Him were on His side,so this theory won't prevail. Now come the Catholics claiming ] that their priests can forgive sins, i This may be denied by the priest, ( but the rank and file of the church 1 believes it, and as a consequence the average Catholic looks to the priest t instead of God to forgive his sins. 1 Now, in this state of affairs what is a man or woman to do? After consulting all of these doctrines ^ what is her remedy, or is he or she j in a maze as to what faith she or he ] can pursue to get salvation? All are against each other. What is she ' or he to do? This predicated upon 1 the fact that the party does not en- ' ter the church until he or she ar- 1 rives at maturity. The consequence J is that in this divergency of ideas as to what constitutes' true religion - - * - ? /* I they become either skeptics 01 inndels. But, we are off our subject, the observance 'of the Sabbath day. * Why is it that the church,Methodist, * Baptist and Presbyterian, fight liquor so hard and neglect to fight the railroads for work on the Sabbath day. The Bible teaches temperance r in everything, but in no part of it * can be found the doctrine of prohi- * bition. Now, I am with you when t you want to eradicate liquor, but I 1 am not to stop with you there. The s observance of the Sabbath is of par- ? amount consideration. Then why t stop at liquor and allow railroad e trains to run on Sunday in violation r of the Sabbath. ? When you answer this question p satisfactorily I will then agree d with you on the liquor question. * W F Clayton Florence, June 30. 7 NOW HER FRIENDS HARDLY KNOW HER __ Jut This Does Not Bother Mrs. Burton, Under the i Circumstances.
