La Grande TO NIGHT te ward's Qpera House (Scrlpp News Association) London, May 1 9 The British military authorities art seriously considering the suggestion. instructing the soldiers of the British ' army in ' tha-- elements' of "first aid to the injured". A strong appeal based upon the observations during the Russia-Japanese war, has been made, to bring about some much needed reform in the hospital service of the army and the plan has been warmly supported by many high medical authorities. At the recent thirty-fifth congress of the German Association of Surgeons, held in Berlin, several interesting details were discussed relating to war surgery. It is generally recognized that modesn conditions of war are rendering it more and more difficult for military surgeons to pursue their duties connected with first aid. It is said that the most efficient medical services rendered during the Manchurian campaign were those per formed by means of field hospitals erected along the line of various authorities were unanimous In declaring that wounds re sulting from shells uncommon for one doctor to attend to one hundred and twenty or rrore cases. ' . : It is stated that seventy per cent of the soldiers wounded at Mukden had recover ed and again resumed duty withm three months of the action. - (This, of course, owing to the comparatively hygienic effects of the unusually small projectile used by the hostile armies' Dr. Schaefer who obtained considerable experience in Manchuria, states that no less than 2,000 wounded were treated in one field hos pital, and only ten of these required to undergo operations. It appears to be unanimously agreed by medical authorities throughout the world that the system 0 f first aid instruction now imparted to sold iers has been responsible for saving an enormous number of lives. Formerly many of the wounded were quietly per mitted to bleed to death when even a; elementary.knowledge of anatomy and extemporized surgical appliances would have enabled tneir comrades to uia them. ' ,v- :S P OR TS i LA GRANDji VERSUS ELGIN Tomorrow is the day when our sister 'city Elgin, will try conclusions at the ball park. Rumors have been making the rounds that Elgin has captured Osburne of the Yellow Kids, and in mentioning the coming game the Elgin Recorder stated last night that their line-up could not be given and prophesied a dark horse would loom up on Sunday. The only plausible inference is that Osborne will pitch. If he does there will be some ball playing as he demonstrated whil here with the Yellow Kids that he knsw how to throw. The excursion will no doubt bring many rooters from Elgin The La Grande aggregation has pract iced hard and will be ready for nine dark horses if necessary. : The La Grande team will line up about as 'follows: Betzel. p;' Klebs, c: Sieg rist, 1st; Crawford, 2nd; Collins, .ss; Childers, 3rd; Kooser, If; Cotner; ef ; Van Buren, rf.
