use-not in Grand Rapids, thank Heaven
in opening the eyes of some commun-

children in one room to be taught by
one teacher is crime, and when the
children are between the ages of FIVE

are broken.'

Another Haul.

About O'Clock Saturday morning
State Constables Langston, Foster and
Floyd halted a man i'm a buggy near
Abbey Creek church cemetery, about
fifteen miles below the city, and cap
tured thirty-two gallons of corn
Whlskey. The man was also captured.
The constables have beer warned for
some time that persons have been car
rying whiskey along this route con-
tinually and they have Deer laying
low an, watching for several days past,
and at last their vigilance was re-
wardeI by this haul.
TIE novelty Of the affair is the fact
That the party having in his possession
the whiskey is a formor State consta-
Die, who used to frequently visit this
city to suppress illicit traffic Of the
bug juice, but this was a long time ago
when the constabulary was first or
gained. The mans name is Pink III.
Martin, and he is n well known citizen
or Laurens county. The buggy in which
the whiskey was slowed and the horse
he was driving are said to belong to a
citizen of Laurens, but this may be
mere rumOr.
The constables had watched the road
closely for several days and had about
given up all hope of getting any booze,
when on yesterday morning directly
after midnight, as they were reclining
on the ground near the church, one of
the number detected a noise of some
one coming with n vehicle. They in
stantly prepared to hail the comer.
He halted at their demand and was at
once surrounded. Resistance was use
less, and it was well for the constablcs
That Martin was unacCompanied, for
he is dead game and was never known
to show the white feather. His record
as a police officer will corroborate this.
One of the constables who assisted in
the capture informed a Herald man
that of all the men they have dealt
with, Martin was the bravest and
most dangerous.
There being no alternative, Martin
quietly gave up and was taken in
charge by these men, who also on
fscated the whiskey, The whiskcy
was in large tin cans and had beer
placed in the buggy with much skill
and Judgment.
Mr.. Martin was brought before Mag
istrate Kirby yesterday and gave bond.
