RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.

Last Sunday the morning ant
evening services at the lst Presbyte
ran church were peculiarly impress
siVe to both parents and children
The morning sermon was addressed
TO children, and the text was, "Chii
dren obey your parents, for this ii
right in the LORD" Many " holesomt
truths were elucidated, and the ap
plication was made i'll language 81
| plain that the smallest child could
easily understand it. The parents
duty to the child was also made Sc
plain that further erring in this re-
| spect is improbable. The evening
address was delivered to the youths
of Is and upwards, the text being
1.-The glory of the young men is theiI
! strength" The nearer was plainly
told that physical strength Was not
what was indicated by the text, but
mental, moral and spiritual strength
| that which will enable them to re-
sist the evil tendencies or the times,
was wEat he desired them to seek for
and possess. While physical eXer-
else was not advised against, Iut
| mere purpose of muscular deVeiJp-
menL was deplored, and was unable
to make man a hero. The ability
to say no, and the moral strength to
adhere to that decision, was the
strength constituting the glory of all.

One of the strongest evidences Of
Columbia's prosperity, is the activity
of business in her numerous factories.
This is particularly the case at the
Columbia Pump Factory. About
sixty men are regularly employed in
the manufacture of pumps in the
rough, and this company will within
a few weeks probably employ twice
Il at number. The management Of
the plant is in the hands of Mr.. Bish-
Oh, and he informed us few days
ago that as soon as they succeeded in
making the necessary changes in the
old Pearl mill, they would put in the
necessary machinery aud finish up
the pumps, so that they could be
! thrown upon the market from this
point. The HERALD wishes them
unbounded success.

l am a candidate for reelection to
the office of County Trustee, subject
strictly to the Democratic Primary to
be held on Saturday, March 5th, and
trust that my conduct in office for the
last two years, has beeu such as to
merit the confidence of the people,
and that they will see proper to elect
me for the SECOND TERM. To this
time it has been impossible for me to
make an active canvass on account
of being confined to my office attend
ing to my official duty, as you all
know the time for payment of taxes
has just expired and people coming
in to pay their taxes kept me at my
office. / did not think 1t right for me
to leave my office to canvass when
the duties of the office and the cOnVe-
uience of the people required me at
the office. For this reason l have
been unable to canvass the county.
Respect fully, NJ. S. KUHN.

Do Ye also Likewise.

There are moments in the life of a
newspaper man, that serve to make
him feel that his labor for the ad-
vancement of ourfc6mmon country,
it's business, it's thought, and its
moral excellence are appreciated ;
and he is given cause to feel that
swelling of the heart that indicates a
pleasurable, if not happy emotion
Such was our feeling last week when
one OF the HERALD'S subscribers,
and true friends, a gentleman OF
business sagscity and mental and
moral worth, came forward and paid
up his subscription to the year 1900;
thereby showing his appreciation OF
the HERALD'S course in the past and
displaying confidence in its course
for the future. The editorial and
business management of the ii ERALD
extend to him their sincere thanks,
and best wishes for his future success.
The gentleman is too modest to per
NIT the use OF his name.

never seen before. lie explained, how
ever, TO the stranger, that he suited a
description he had i'm his pocket. The
party arrested was one Frank Carter,
colored, and sure enough he was the
man wanted by tho Nashville authori-

! battery, for gambling, for selling
| whiskey without license and for sell
ing whisky on Sunday. Sheriff Hill
came out yesterday and gave Frank
a free ride back to Nashville.
