EVANGELISTIC MOVEMENT.
The Baptists of the South Inaugurate
a Forward Movement.

Revs. George A. Wright and B. P.
Mitchell returned Oh Saturday from
attending the BaBptist Institute Of
Evangelism held at Greenville last
week.
This institute marks the beginning
Of new era in the aggressive work
of the church in South Carolina.
Between rs and 100 Of the most ac-
tive pastors of the state were present
at the institute and great interest was
manifested by all. For five days the
First Baptist church Of Greenville
was crowded by those who came to
hear the discussion of various sub
jects pertaining to the work of evan
gelism. Rev. DR.. L. NJ. Broughton Of
Atlanta preached every night and at
many of the, sessions, gave practical
advice as to the best methods of evan
gehstic work. 1t is probable that 9TH
er. Institutes Of similar character will
be held by groups Of counties in the
near future.

HAS HE RELAT1vEs7.
Trying to Locate Josef Metzner Ol
His DESCENDANTS /,

u The following letter explains itself.
1t was sent as will be seen to the
chief Of police at Belfast in Newberry
county and as, the postoffice at Bel
fast has been discontinued the post
master at Kinards opened it and has
sent it to The Herald and News for
publication. 1t seems that the moth
er Of Josef Metzner was a. Ringer.
There are several Ringers still in this
county and while, SO far as we know,
none Of them ever lived near Belfast,
but in another section of the county,
they may be related to Josef Metzner.
The name of Metzner does not ap-
pear in the Annals of Newberry.
The following is the letter:
Cincinnati, O., U. S. A., Dec. 27, 1906.
Hon. Chief of Police of Belfast New
berry Co., S. G. ., ..
Honorable sir: Having been re-
quested by Probate Court to locate
JOSEF Metznea', born April 3Oth, 1924,
son of Ulrich Metzner and Anna
Margaretha, nee Ringer, who, when
last heard of, was residing on farm
called Tippekenu (Tippecanoe), I
would thank You for any assistance,
respective information you are able
to give in regard to said party s
whereabouts.
Josef Metzner, or in case of his
death, his legal heirs are entitled to
share of an estate, and if they are
not represented when the case is call
ed, they will be excluded, and their
share goes to those proving their
claim.
Trusting you may be able to give
me some information, I remain,
Honorable sir,
Very thankful yours,

Mr.. Johnstone has introduced a
bill to provide for the election of the

the duty of the city council. The

JUDGE WILSON'S SUCCESSOR.
Special Election Will be Ordered to
Fill the Vacancy-Several Men

Governor Ansel will in the next
several days order special cleo
iton to be held in this county to fill
the vancancy created by the recent
death of Col. Jno. c. Wilson, who
held the Office Of probate judge. The
law provides that where a county Of
ficial dies, if his unexpired term is
more than one year, an election shall
be held to choose his successor.
There has been considerable specu-
lation as to who will be in the race.
Among those whose names have been
mentioned by their friends are the
Rev. j. A. Sigh, Messrs. Rufus
Counts, F. M. Schumpert, L. w.
Jones, S. S. Cunningham, Cannon g.

GOES TO ATLANTA.
NJ. O..E. Bell Will Become Chief
Clerk of Freight Otfice-Effec-
tive February First.

The many friends Of Mr.. Charles
L. Bell in Newberry, where is very
popular, are greatly pleased to learn
of his deserved promotion. Mr.. Bell
is the son-in-law of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred. A. Schumpert.
The Augusta Chronicle says:
Mr. Charles e. Bell, commercial
agent here for the Southern Railway
will leave Augusta February 1st to
accept the position Of chief clerk in
the general freight agents office in
Atlanta. The freight traffic opera
tions of the entire Southern system
are handled from the Atlanta Office,
and the position to which Mr.. Bell
attains is consequently one of author
ity and Importance. He will assist
General Freight Agent G. R. Browder
in handling the afafrs of the Office.
Mr.. Bell leaves Augusta wide
circle Of devoted friends with whom
his relations, both business and per-
sonal, have been always most pleas
ant. "Charles Bell" has grown to be
part of Augusta, and Augusta is sor-
ry to see him 60.
His departure to Atlanta, however,
will be somewhat in the nature of a
home going, as a great part of his
personal and railroad life was spent
in that city, and many of his old as
sociates are still located there.

Meeting For Men,

The first of the meetings for men
to be held on the fourth Sunday in
each month was held at the Lutheran
church Of the Redeemer on Sunday
afternoon. -> .s
The meeting was in every way a
success. The attendance Of the men
Of Newberry was very gratifying.
The singing under the direction Of
the choir Of the Newberry College
Y. M. G. A., assisted by Rev. Geo. A,
Wright, with Mr.. j. D. Cappleman at
the organ was inspiring. The mes
Rage Of Rev. w. i. Seabrook, who
conducted the service, was truly
forceful and uplifting. His theme
wa "The Gospel Of Christ, the Pow
or Of God unto Salvation" and the
power Of that Gospel to move mems
hearts was manifested in its effect
on all present.

Saluting Debutantes in Disfavor.


The proposition to abolish the GUS
tom Of kissing the debutantcs, which
is maintained at the Irish Court, has
again been brought forward. The idea
will probably be soon dropped, Tor to
do away with the custom would in
volve a lot Of red tape and necessitate
special permission from the King. The
custom was introduced by sovereign

His friends still tell a good story re-

Irish girl who was being presented.
After she had received her salute on
one cheek she deliberately. turned the
other. Lord Crewe was, however, equal
