SIXTEEN DIE IN
ASYLUM FIRE-TRAP
x> .
Columbia, S. C.?Sixteen white
^ male patients at the South Carolina
Hospital for the Insane here perished
in a fire which destroyed a cno
story frame structure on the ho; pit I
irrounds Wednesday moraine: shortly
after o'clock. Fifteen of the number
were burned to death in the
building, having run hack into the
burning structure after they had
been taken to a place of safety by
rescuers. The other dead man was
rescued from the building a second
time but not until after he had received
injuries from which he died a
few hours later. Four other pa'icnts
aTe more or less seriously injured.
There were 45 patients sleeping in
the ward and the greatest difficult '
was experienced" in saving thdtvi. Thr
building was a very old one n
proved an easy prey to the flamewhich
spread so rapidly that by th
time the fire department reached t'u
scene the building was doomed.
Hospital authorities state that ev
cry patient in the ward was rcmov
cd, but that most of them ran baY
into the burning building. Elfor's
of the nurses and attendants to hole
\ an of them back proved unavailing.
The origin of the fire is unknown
The only explanation advanced thus
far is that the building was a veii
table fire trap. It adjoined one o:
the main buildings of the asylum ii
which there were several hundre<
patients. These were all removed a
this building was at one time en
<langered.

Withdrawal From . Soissons
Carried Out Methodically
and Slowly
QUIET CONFIDENCE
IN OUTCOME OF FIGHT
?
Allied Reserves Massing in
Perfect Arrangement Without
Confusion.
Pari.-..?Increasing violence marked
the progress of the fighting south
of the Aisne. The Germans are fight
ing against time and arc throwing
every ounce of weight of manpow 1
into the struggle.
On the center, the enemy ha ; rgai t
pushed forward, but his efforts t)
broaden his advancing front have m t
with less success. The Allied wings
. ave been oblgiod to give ronte
ground. This action was carried out
slowly and the full price was exacted
from the enemy.
Soissons has gone and the British
have fallen back toward Rheims, but
in either case the enemy has only
won a couple of miles ot territory.
In competent circles there is quiet
confidence in the outcome and signs
are not lacking that the advancing
waves shortly will be stemmed. Unity
of command puts 'the Allies in a better
position than they were in the
March offensive. On that occasion
French reinforcements came into action
on the third day and on the
eighth the Germans were stopped
definitely. Today things should go
more quickly.
The Germans have been obliged to
leave their guns on the northren side
of the original line, which can be
crossed only at a certain number of
' points which are highly vulnerable to
: Allied airplanes.
j The onemy is thus prevented from
reaping the full benefits of his rapid j
advance. Meanwhile, the Allied re-!
' serves are massing at certain points
without any of the confusion that atj.
tended the similar movement in
March. So well perfected are the
j arrangements that an entire division
can be moved by motor truck from
the Somme to Rheims in 48 hours
and a drive without a button miss^

ODD FELLOWS ASKED TO

Columbia. Lo4cm of Odd Fallows
throughout South Carolina and the
individual members of this great organisation
have been called upon by
the officers of the Sovereign Grand
Lodge for support of the program of
the Food Administration to save
wheat. All Odd Fellows are urged
through the Sovereign Grand Lodge
to voluntarily abstain from the use of
wheat foods until after the next harvest.
There are in the United States
about 2,300,000 Odd Fellows. The
membership of this order in South
Carolina is very large, and there will
no doubt be a generous and a patriotic
response to the appto&l to save
wheat to help feed the fighting forces
of America and the allies and the {
people of the allied countries.

It was a monotonous stretch of ugly
rench, wire entanglements, gaping
thell holes, accented bj the blackened
skeleton of shell killed forests sllhouetp
ed against a dull, hopeless sky.
This had once been beautiful rolling
and like our own Ohio and Indiana * i
rich In grain fields, or*hards and gar- j
lens. Now it was desolation nothing I
'ould live there seemingly nothing <
lid.
We had cotne on some rising ground,
and as we climbed we reached the
brow ot tlie slope, and of a sudden it i
seemed that some slant had suddenly
twisted the old world under our feet
and we were hack home, lor of a sudden
the sounds of life came up to us
out of a hustling center of Industry.
That satisfying chug of an honest hammer
head sinking willing nail into
sound wood, and before us was a pauoruma
of new building, with piles of
lean lumber stacked bere und there,
and the framing of many new buildings
told where the wood was going.
Then we heard the voice of a man
who talked real "United States"?telling
27 other carpenters what to do?
out In this foreign land thousands of
miles from home.
We inquired of the boss as to who
he was. and with true sense of humor
he said: "1 am a Red Cross nurse.
My Job la bandaging wounded houses."
Putting Village# Back en Map.
"This was once a French village." he
went on to say. "in the center of due
sugar beet country. We are living
now on the site of the sugar mill," he
said, pointing to a long, low barracks,
which plainly had been recently built.
"We are working for the American
fled Cross?putting villages back en the
map. In four tnore weeks we'll be out
of here and on our way to the next
ruin, for there are many villages that
need us. We go from place to place,
always finding that our lumber has
reached there first, so we can get right
to work, clean up and move on again."
It Is just like pioneering, this rebuilding
work of our Red Cross?only
more Important?more important because
It Is vltalvto the winning of the
war that these people come hack to
their soil and plant new crops?for ful
ture years of war or peace.
And so the tide of war sweeps hack
| from whence it came, a Red Cross
army follows close behind In uniforms
of overalls, armed with Yankee hami
mors and nails to coax hack the foundlings
fhgt have heen brushed Inio
squalid helplessness In the south and
east.
They are coming back home now,
just a few days behind these carpenters?back
to the beet fields, the gardens
and the farms. Soon they wll? be
feeding themselves and thousands of
others.

WHITE PLAGUE KILLS
MORE MEN THAN BULLETS
It seems longer, but !t was less thnn
four years ago that the nations had
not yet started In to wipe each other
off the map and that the only times
when one heard of the Red Cross wera
times of flood or disaster and at
Christmas time, when the peaceful little
Red Cross tuberculosis seals muds
their annual appearance.
Perhaps, in fact, it was the long, ardent
tight in America age Ins' the White
Plague which, in spite of the ware
enormous new demands, Is responsible
for the especial Interest being taken Ly
the American Red Cross in Prance's
frightful struggle against consumption.
This scourge seems to mark the
trench tighter for its own. It kills
more men than do bullets and poison
gas combined. Until tire American
Red Cross was perndtteo bv the
French government to start Its drive
against tuberculosis It looked as If,
even with a victory over the Hun.
France might eventually be conquered
by this deadlier foe.
Already things are looking brighter.
The Red Cross has taken over old hospitals
and built new ones. Mora than
300 tuberculosis dispensaries are to be
opened throughout the country, and
Red Cross doctors and nursea?scores
of them?are devoting themselves ex>
clusively to this tight, doing over there
exactly the same kind of work which
Is financed in America by the little
Christmas seals. It Is one of the wayi
In which by our contributions to the
Red Cross America can repay her debt

Washington.?Reports of success
mi upenaions oy American sokiciis
lire coming- to the War Departments
Secretary Baker said today. Details
of the action were received in the
regular official communiques from
General Pershing.
The secretary made this statement
when asked to comment on the situation
in Europe:
"I cannot comment on the general
situation," he said. "We are constantly
receiving reports of splendid
valor and successful operations by
our American soldiers and I am very
proud of the part they are playing.
The details of these actions will appear
in the communiques from Gen.
dl iVi'Suing.*'
War Department officials are high
!y pleased at the conduct of the Am'riean
troops in Picardy. The attack
hat brought the capture of Cantign.v,
they pointed out today, was deivered
with speed and precision,
testifying to the hard-hitting quality
of the Americans.
"The quick consolidation of the
ground won, noted by both foreign
and American correspondents," officers
said, "gives satisfactory proof
VI tuv apiiium- Wl /villt'l ICitll UUHXrv
and men in learning the method of
modern warfare."
Some officers believe the Amtttean
attack may forecast the launch*
ing of a counter offensive of large*
scope by General Foch. They regard
the time and place of the operations
is right for a feeling-out thrust as a
preliminary to a counter-a: sault he
force.
The German claim of 13,000 prisoners
in the new thrust on the Ak-ae
ront did not strike observers here as
unusual, should it prove to be true.
British official statements have
shown that the front line trench system
in this sector was overrun in the
enemy rush, which appears to have
penetrated to a maximum depth of
about ten miles. It is believed here
that rear guard actions account Cor
many captures.
Most observers here are still convinced
that the Germans have no*
yet struck at the point where their
I real offensive is planned.
NATION URGED
1 TO SAVE WHEAT
Washington. The nation waa
warned again today by the food administration
that there must be no re
taxing in the conservation of wheat
if the necessary shipment; are to be
made to the American fighters overseas
and the allied peoples.
"Every prospect of the wheat situation,
both present and future," said
the warning, "intensifies the need for
the greatest possible limitation in the
American consumption of wheat and
wheat products. If present restrictions
should in the slightest degree
be relaxed, it would result in serious
want for the people of Europe before
the new crop can reach the market.
"The food administration's estimate
of the position on June 1 indfj
cates a total available supply until
the new harvest of about 56,000,000
bushels. Of this 1*0,000,000 bushels
must be exported before new wheat
is available for export if we are to
maintain the necessary shipments to
our army and the allies,
i "State administrators meeting here
this week were unanimous in the
view that even if the coming harvest
does prove abundant it will be the
first duty of the American people to
place every grain they can save into
I storage to build up a reserve against
possible bad years ahead. In causei
quence there should be no antkip*I
tion of unlimited wheat bread unti
