Wagon and Fell.-Accident Near
Jalapa.

Johnnie Dudley, a little four-year-

manner on Saturday afternoon. He
was playing in front Of the home OF

to Mr.. Henry L. PARIS saw mill for
lumber. The little negro ran and
jumped on the wagon and fell off,
breaking his neck.
The wagon was driven by Tom hutf,
colored. Tom did not see the little
negro at all, and did not know OF the
accident until told Of it on his re-
turn.
The little negro was the son OF
Lawrence Dudley, who lives near ia
lapa on the road between Newberry

The accident happened between II
and l o'clock. Coroner W. E. Felker
was notified and went to the scene
and empanelled a jury. DR.. J. W.
Folk examined the body, and after
hearing the testimony verdict was
rendered in accordance with the facts

MAYOR OF SANFORD.
Forrest Lake, a Newberry Boy, Elect
ed Again after an Absence Of
Ten Years.-No Opposition.

The Herald and News takes great
pleasure in mentioning the success OF
its young men and women who have
made their homes in other places.
Some of the older people in Newber-
ry will remember young Forrest Lake
when he left here to grow up with
Florida. He was then a mere STRIPPING
of a boy, for that has been nearly
twenty years ago. He went to San
ford and went to work and succeeded
in business and became mayor Of the
city.
Some years ago he decided to go tc
Cuba and for number of years was
at Santiago. He has recently returned
to his old home at Sanford. In fact
came back in May, 1907, after an ab.
sence of ten years. He was again
elected mayor of Sanford for 1908
just seven months after his return.
He was reelected in December, 1908
and is a candidate for the third term
without opposition.
The Herald and News is pleased to
know that be is succeeding so we'll.
His mother is now with him in San
ford and in letter from him to The
Herald amid News she joined with him
in best wishes and kind regards to her
friends in Newberry. +.

PET MICE CAUSE DEATH.
Blood Poison Followed by Woundlng
of Babe in Barnwel by the
Rodents.

Barnwell, Nov. ia sad death
occurred in town this afternoon when
the 6-weeks-old infant Of Mr.. and
Mrs. E. W. Holman passed away.
The causes leading to the death
make teh death a most pathetic one.
Last Friday afternoon the little IN
fant Of Mr.. and Mrs. Holman was
left in a room on the bed while Mrs.
Holman went to another part OF the
house. There were some pet white
mice in the house, the pets OF an eld-
er sister. While there was no one
in the room the mice got upon the
bed with The baby and began gnaW-
ing at her fingers. Her cries were
heard after a time by her mother and
when the latter came in the room she
found that the ra:s had bitten the
little child on the hands several times
and had gnawed off one Of her finger
nails. Medical assistance was called
in and everything possible was done
to prevent any further trouble from
rhe wounds. Unfortunately blood
.'"g set in and, despite the ef-
." re 10 ~h :sie1ans to save her,
she died at 80 this afternoon.

MORNING TONIC.
(Phillips BrookS.)

Slowly, through all the universe,
that temple of God is being built.
Wherever, in any world, a soul, by
free-willed obedience, catches the fire
Of Gods likeness, it is set into the
growing walls, a living stone. When,
in our fight, in your tireSOme druid
gerry, or in your terrible temptation,
You catch the purpose Of your being
and give yourself to God, and so give
Him the chance to give Himself to
you, your life, a living stone is taken
up and set into that growing wall.
Wherever souls are being tried and
ripened, in whatever commonplace
and homely ways-there God is heW-
ing out the pillars for his temple. Oh,
if the stone can only have some vision
of the temple of which it is to be a
part forever, what patience must I'LL
it as it feels the blows of the ham
mer, and knows that success for it
is simply to let itself be into
what shape the Master wills.
