Rural Policeman Arrests Latin Man
I 'for Attempting Theft of Cotton.
Latta, Oct. 19.?It seems that the
high price of cotton has created a
desire on the part of some around
Latta to raise some very hurriedly.
Several bales of the costly staple
have been missed from the platforms
here so that a diligent watch has/
?been kept 'by Rural Policeman Pwy

o'clock while Mr. Paysinger and his

approached the Latta gin pTatf?fm
and loaded four bales of cotton. When
?the load was driven out a certain
road Mr. Paysinger and his men are
cstgfl to have gone out beyond Cat?
fish swamp, about one mile from
Latta, and waited. In due time the
tcnVn came up with the four bales
'of cotton and three men thereon. It

NEW SYSTEM OF STERILIZING. !
American Doctors' IMun Likely to be
Adopted by Entente Allies Every
WheBe- ....
Paris, Oct. 22.?A system of steril?
izing wounds which has been suc?
cessfully applied at the hospital at
Cohipigne under the direction of Dr.
Alexis Carrell, of New York, has been
extended to the American hospital at
Neully, the American and Belgian hos?
pitals in Belgium and probably will
be adopted in all the war hospitals of
tho Entente Allies.
Hughes LcHoux, editor of The Ma?
tin describing at visit to the Com
piegne hospital, quotes Dr. Carrel as
saying: 1
"Beginning in September, 1915, it
would have been possible to suppress
Completely the suppuration of "wounds
in the hospitals, hut our process en?
countered such resistance from the
heads of the profession that it was, so
to speak, applied nowhere, though the
lives of a great number of wounded
would have been saved by this means.
The savants would not believe in the
possibility of the complete sterilisa?
tion of deep wounds hut we have suc?
ceeded in doing it"
The process, as described by Mr. Le
Hou.v, consists tn complete irrigation
of the wounds by means of a rubber
tube with numerous branches, per?
forated with many small holes. The
sterilising solution was perfected af?
ter experiments with 200 or more dif?
ferent substances in various combina?
tions. The wound is thus rid of all
foreign substances and every corner
or possible pocket is thoroughly clean?
ed, i Lf
When examination shows that the
wound is aseptic, the wound is closed.
"Experience shows," said Dr. Carrel,
that 1 na sterilised cavity thus clos?
ed, nature's healing process goes on
with a rapidity hitherto unknown.
The duration of the treatment is
abridged about two-thirds and the
number of amputations diminished
fifty per cent.

Much Interest Elicited in Outcome of
Annual Fair (Ground 4?me*t;
Columbia, Oct. 19.?The football
classic of South Carolina will be play?
ed at the fair grounds at noon Thurs?
day, when the University oi South
Carolina and Clemson college meet "n
their annual historv making game.
This year's game should furnish one
of the most exciting contests of re?
cent years.
From all available forecasts, made
possible by early games, the two
teams are fairly evenly matehed. Both
are going through the experience of
worrying along without first year men,
no freshmen being" eligible for the
varsity teams at either institution, and
a separate clash will be furnished by
the classes of 1920 of both colleges
meeting Friday.
New coaches hold sway at Carolina
and Clemson. Or. Rice Warren of
the University of Virginia is head
coach at Carolina, . assisted by John
Mills and Luke Hill, both former
captains of Carolina teams. Wayne
Hart of Georgetown is head coach at
Clemson, succeeding the veteran Bo'j
Williams. W. G. Morris of Maryland
AgricUlfuial college is ClemsotVs as?
sistant coach.
??Bullet" McMillan of Mullins. play?
ing left tackle, is captain of the Car?
olina' team. The Tigers are led by
"Dopey" Major of Anderson, whose
position is full hack.
The game win begin at noon on the
athletic field at the fair grounds. The
officials have not yet been selected,
but it is probable that Bill Streit,
former Washington and Lee and Au?
burn st?r, will be either' referee or
umpire, wlllle Pat Barry bf George?
town, who has appeared in many fkir
week fedmes as referee or Umpire, may
also have a place.
