NEWS OF INTEREST HERE.
Rev. w. t. Capers Elected as Mis-
sionary Bishop of Spokane.

Greenville News.
News has been received in the city
of the election of Rev. W. T. Capers
as missionary bishop of Spokane oy
the house of bishops in session at the
general convention OF the Episcopal
church in New York. The news was
received here with much pleasure by
the many friends Of Mr.. Capers.
Mr.. Capers is a son Of the late be-
loved Bishop Ellison Capers, OF the
diocese. of South Carolina, ard spent
his boyhood days in this city, where
for twenty years his father was rec
tor of Christ church For a number
of years, the Rev. Mr.. Capers has been
rector of the church of the Holy
Apostle at Philadelphia.
The first announcement from New
York as to the appointment gave the
information that Rev W. B. Capers
of Columbia, Tenn, was to be bishop
of Spokane, it now develops that a
similarity in the initials of the two
brothers probably caused the error.

If the Newberry people really want

a good house. Of course, the manager
could not be expected to play these
high class operas at personal loss,
and when he does take the risk TO
bring one to the town it is then up
to the opera loving people of the COM
munity to show by their presence
whether or not they really want flrst
class opera to come to town. The
manager will not keep on bringing
these troops at a personal loss.
The prices will range from fifty

Death of Mr.. D. r. Lavender.

Mr.. George SWittenberg, Mr. Lavsn-
der's manager of the Newberry Thea
to moving picture show at t1e old
court house, received a telegram We'd
nesday morning telling him of the
death of Mr.. D. R. Lavender, which
had occurred at his home in Gaffney
on Tuesday night. Mr. Lavender had
oSb:en i'll with typhoid fever for the past
Five or six weeks. 1t was thought sew
eral weeks ago that he was getting
better, but it was only for little
while that the hope was held out.
The death of Mr. Lavender was
heard in Newberry with genuine sor-
row. When he came here to open his
moving picture show ne came as
stranger, but at once he made himself
at home and became very popular
with all classes. He showed that he
liked Newberry, and Newbsrry IN re-
turn showed that her people general
ly liked him. He was successful IN
&his business here, and contributed to-
wards giving the public pleasure,
amusement and benefit in the line OF
mis- work. The secret Of his success
and popularity lay in the fact that Mr..
Lavender had a good heart and
broad mind. He was generous and
friendly, and such traits Of character
win friendship that is worth more
.Sthan gold and that gold cannot buy,
kNeWberry will miss Mr., Lavender.

WANT FARMERS TO BUY ROAD.
Atlantic People Are Uurging the Orig
nal 6ackers of A., N. g. S. to
Bid 1t in.

Atlantic, Jan 2S--Undismayed by
their previous losses and failure as
railroad promoters, the farmers living
along the north end of the Atlantic
Northern & Southern railway, may
purchase the road when it is offered
for sale. This refers to the people in
the kimballton and Elk Horn vicinity.
Meetings have been held in the two
towns and strong effort will be
made to finance the proposition to the
end that on the 25th Of February, the
date on which the road is to be again
sold, the north end people will be in
shape to bid it in.
The effort was inaugurated largely
for the protection of the first, second
and third mortgage bond holders on
the north end, who stand to lose if
the whole road goes for the price it is
likely to bring at the SALE The pur'
chase of it by the people along the
line, if it is brought about, will put
them in the clear.
Atlantic people are hoping the Chi
cago, Burlington &, Quincy will buy the
south end and the north end people
their end of the road.

The meeting took up the greater

the road leading out of town to the
west. Every phase of the proposition
was taken up and discussed by those
present. Various plans were brought
up during the meeting, but none of
them met with so much favor as the
one of running highway on the north
side of the right of way, which does
away with the crossing of the tracks
twice. 1t was practically decided to
carry out this plan and the officials of
the North Western were of the opin-

Mr.. Frank Grimes, of this city.
Mr. Grimes is employed by Huett-
man Brothers of this city, as sales
man, and recently his family came to
Denison and for the past week they
have been moving into the kalb prop
erty in the Garrison block. From the
testimony brought out at the trial in
Justice Rollins court on Tuesday
morning it seems that Mr.. and Mrs.
Grimes employed Baxter to help them
move their furniture into their new
home. While working about the house
Mrs. Grimes removed her rings and
placed them in grip, hanging the
grip in closet. The only person who
was in the house at the time was BaX-
ter, and Monday when Mrs. Grimes
had occasion to go to the grip to get
some of her things she found that her
five rings were missing. She at once
notified the officers who found Baxter
and brought him before Justice Rol-
Inns. At this time Baxter claimed
that he knew the man who had taken
the rings as he had seen the party
leaving the house, and promised the
court he would bring the rings back
if allowed to do so. He was allowed
to leave, but was shadowed and in due
