A WhdIe Man Charged With Grand I.arceny is Brought In by sheriff Buford. Sheriff M. M. Buford for some time has been on the look-out for Edward Butler, a white man, who is charged with grand larceny, having been ac cused of appropriating to his own, use several articles of jewelry, etc., to the value of sover p20, belonging to persons living in West End, this.city. The warrant was placed in the Sheriff's bands and he has been persistent in his fforts to capture his man. He had a detective in Augusta to help him and n the 26th the fllowing was received: Augusta, Ga., Nov. 26, 1902. Sheriff M. M. Buford, Newberry, S. C. Come on at pnce. Got your man lo cated.

When the sheriff arrived in Augusta the authorities were in the act of try ing the prisoner for some offense com mitted there, but his requisition papers were honored and Butler is now in jail here awaiting trial. When Sheriff Buford gets behind a man he leaves no stone unturned to catch him, and he generally succeeds. The Editor Sick. The editor of The Herald and News has been sick and confined to his bed for the past ten days. He was at the office for a few minutes yesterday. It is hoped that he will be completely re covered in a few days. A False Alarm. Yesterday at noon the fire alarm was sounded and the fire laddies respondet promptly and went in the direction the fire was reported. but it proved to be a false alarm. Persons should be very particular in sending in alarms-i means a lot of lost time and hard worn to the fremen to be called out for noth FARWEELL TO HIS CONGREGATION. Rev. W. I. Herbert Preaches His Last Ser mon as Pastor of Central Methodist Church. Although the weather was very disa greeable, a large congregation attend ed the evening services in the Central Methodist church on Sunday. It was the first evening service held in this church, and it was the occasion of Rev. Mr. Herbert's last sermon as pastor. Mr. Herbert has served this congrega tion for the past four years and will be assigned other work by the Conference which convenes in this church tomor row. That he has been acceptable to his people and that he holds a warm place in their hearts is evidenced by the expressions of deep and genuine re gret at his approaching departure heard on every side. The handsome new church building in which he preached his last sermon, and the church roll stand as monuments to his ability and his faithfulness. These are the results that can be seen with human eyes. But these are small indeed com pared to the greatness of the work which he has done-work whose results can only be seen with the eye of Om niscience-in strengthening hands in the Lord. That was the subject of his sermon on Sunday evening; the strengthening of hands in the Lord. He chose his text from Samuel 23:16: "And Jona than Saul's son arose, and went to David in the wood, and strengthened his hand in God." The main thought which Mr. Herbert sought to impress was that every life has an untold in fluence either for good or for evil, and that the influence of every life should be so directed that it will do its part, however feeble, in the uplifting of mankind. He had come to the conclu sion that there was only one thing in life worth while, and that was to learn to strengthen hands in the Lord; to sit at the feet of the Great Teacher and to receive that wisdom which comes only from on high- that wisdom which enables one to make his life a blessing to all with whom he comes in contact in the earth life. This was the fourth or fifth time that he had come to this point in his life, when to a congregation he must say farewell. He had had one purpose during the last four years, and God be ing his judge, only one, and that was to strengthen hands in God. If he had failed in that th'e woi-k of four years was a failure. 'There was nothing that could possi bly take the place of that work. The Apostle Paul writing one,.his epistles said, "Ye are my joy." Paul meant that his highest joy was the uplifting of .his people. If any joy was to come into the speaker's life from his four years in Newberry, it was when some one came to him and said, "Bro. Her bert, you have strengthened my hand While he rejoiced in the belief that some had been uplifted during these four years, he believed the truth was that some were further from the light than ever before. This after his four years of preaching. He did not un derstand it, perhaps he never would understand it, but before God and be fore man he was here to say that his only purpose had been to help. And no higher joy had ever come into his liethat when members of his congre gation had come to him and told him he had really helped them. He prayed God's richest blessings upon tht congregation and expressed the earnest and sincere wish that the next four years would be the brightest in the history of the Newberry church. -He closed with an exhortation to go forward in the work of strengthening hands in the Lord-the greatest work in the world, and the only work that is truly great. Mr. Herbert will probably preach in Newberry again the second Sunday morning and evening in December. Fine Cabbage. A fine crop of cabbage was raised in this part of the State this year. The North Carolina cabbage dealers made failures this year in comparison with some of the South Carolina amatuers. Mr. J. W. L. Arthur, of Helena, weighed one Saturday that he raised in his garden that weighed 164 pounds. Who can beat it? Conference Visitors Arriving. Quite a number of the members of Conference arrived in the city yester day in order to. prepare for the prelimi nary and committee work of today, and also to attend the meeting of the His torical Society tonight. Some of the members will not arrive until tomorrow morning in time to be present at the opening of conference at 10 o'clock to morrow. Death of Mir. Ed Dukes. Mr. Ed Dukes, who has been ill with consumption for several months, at his home in West End, died Saturday even ing at 8 o'clock. He leaves a widow and three small children and a host of friends to mourn his death. His re mains were buried Sunday afternoon at Rosemont Cemetery, appropriate ser vices being held by Pulaski Lodge, No. 20, I. 0. 0. F., of wvhich he was a member in good standing.
