Bethea, lieutenant gov kd ernor, who is president of the board o ' trustees, pays high tribute to the e present superintendent, Louis J. Brie tow, as well as to the surgeons anc physicians, and, in addition, show that progressive strides have been made in the past year. "At the time Louis J. Bristow assumed charge of the hospital 16 months ago," the re port says, "there was an accumulated debt of over $16,000, and at the close of the fiscal year the debt is only slightly over $2,000. Many improvements have been made In the hospital during the year and the report enumerates the follow ing: Entire building painted, a mod ern and extensive X-Ray machine pur chased; heating plant renovated; new t dumb waiter installed in south build. ing; a cystoscopic room fitted out; a new telephone system installed and f many beds added. t The extrenely low death rate was pointed out in strong terms by the re port, which said that out of 1,597 per sons admitted for treatment, which is an increase of 349 over last year, only 32. or about 2 per cent, died. The total volume of business tranacted by the hospital for the year was over $63,000, of which amount about $54.000 was "paid" work and about $7,000 free. "The Baptist hospital is 'Baptist' in name only," the report said. "It is Baptist in management only, and not denominational in benefits and blessings for the persons admitted for treatment represented 12 denomina. tions and this does not include those represented by the some 200 or 300 patients who did not indciate their re ligious affiliations. Less than one third of the 1.500 patients were of the Baptist church." The report says that the Baptist hospital has been placed on the regu. lar benevolence schedule of nearly all ; the Baptist associations in the state r and that the 1.100 Baptist churche.: in the state are now contributing regular ly to the support of the institution. There are now 30 nurses in the train. ing school. Reference is made to the need of a maternity ward. for which purpose C. K. Henderson, of Aiken, has con. tributed $1,000 as a starting fund. Few Violations Reported. Columbia.-A. A. Richardson, state chief game warden. said a few dayq ago that reports he had received fron game wardens throughout the stati indicated that violations and accident: Thanksgiving day were few. Twenty three violations were reported, all o which were minor offenses. Accord ing to these reports, there were onl two accidents: James Howe, a smal d boy of Pickens county, was accident I ally shot in the leg and J. Acy Tod was also accidentally wounded. s, a Progress on Carhartt Mill. eRock Hill.--The work of construct lng the new I lamnilton Carhartt cot eton mill, on the (Carhar-tt plantation t-four miles from Rock 1H1l1, is progree It sing rapidly.
