\ writer in the Laurensville Herald
paws the following tribute to the
memory of Mr.. James Y. Culbreath:
In the death of James Y. Cul-
breath. Esq, which occurred on the
Sd instant, Newberry has lost one OF
her very best citizens, man OF no
Bile and generous impulses. with a
mind bright ard pure and heart as
tender and true as woman's. Every
one. and they were many, who
knew him loved him, loved
him deeply. constantly. The men,
be7s of the bar to which ne
belonged were strongly attached to
him, and all classes respected and
honored him, and Newberry mourns
the absence OF the golden hearted
S,1lbreath and misses the gentle touch
OF his hand. the sunshine OF his
smile the warmth and inspiration OF
his presence. Never yet lived a more
genial and loyal man or more sincere
and faithful friend than James Y.
Culbreath. There was no uncharlta-
bleness in the heart OF Our departed
friend, nothing but love and good
will and this unselhshness reached
ont from the adepthS OF that great
near. and embraced all, to the hum
blest OF his fellow-men. 1t was not
alone the high mental qualities and
a,,aiuments OF Mr.. Culbreath, not
alone his ability and power as pub
lie speaker. that endcared HIM to. MS
neiehbors, companions. friends; but
the secret OF his universal popularity
was the love in his heart, the love
that never died until death itself
stopped the beating pulsatlonS ana
forever closed the eyes that looked

SUSPECTED OF
STEALING CATTLE
Cornelius Callahan Arrested By Deputy Sher.
iff Huber for Alleged Completely
in Raids.

This morning Deputy Sheriff R. c.
Huber secured warrant for the arrest
of Cornelius Callahan, who has for some
time past been employed by 10 al
butchers, and at noon arrested him at
his home about two miles south of the
city. He is now in the county iai
awaiting hearing on charges of catt.
stealing. Deputy Huber this afternoon
secured two other warrants, the names
on which were not made public, also for
completely in raids on nearby ranches,
and will attempt to arrest the parties
this evening.
The charge on which Callahan was
arrested was the stealing of two head
of cattle from the ranch Of 7. w Hanna1
near Lamy. The attempt was discov-
cred by the presence in the herd of a
COW which had been wounded by rifle
bullet. On investigation, 1t was found
that Callahan had been seen in the
vicinity, and had later, it is alleged, at
tempted to sell meat from the supposed
stolen cattle to families residing near
Sunmount.
Other ranchmen residing south of the
city have been reporting losses recently,
among whom is Anastaco Martinez and
the officers have been quietly investi-
eating. Deputy Huber is certain that
he has one of the men and expects to
roundup the entire gang.
