THE MAN-BEAR.


A strange Freak of Nature Pays Winston
q Visit.
For two or three days past our citizens
have thronged to see the "man-bear," which
has been on exhibition in the Armory of
the Forsyth Rifemen and has attracted no
little attention. 1t Is indeed strange freak
of nature and a curiosity such as has never
before been seen in these parts. 1t has been
proved by many leading physicians to be a
genuine human being in the form of q bear
This strange being is French Canadian and
was born in the rural district of Queens
county New Brunswick, Is twenty-six years
of age is about four and one-haf feet in
height and walks on his all-four, as that of
bear, yet in other respects repre-
sents a human being. Has never had any
educational advantages, therefore is very
ignorant, having learned nothing except
that taught by travel. 1t has great muscu-
lar strength in both hands and legs.
Mr. Sanderson, who has him in charge,
informed SENTINEL reporter that at times
he became ferocious and was difficult to
control. A cage of rats are kept near and
from which he will not be separated.

Political Pull

Is a rather uncertain thing to depend upon as a
the frequent changes of party somebody is sure
to get left, SO that on the whole any man of
brains and ability is really fortunate if, by
missing fat public job, he is compelled to take
up some such business as an agency for DR..
Foote'S "Plain Home Talk which is sure to
be good paying business as long as he will de-
vote himself to it. really popular medical
book such "Plain Home Talk" sells at all
times and in all places, and often the best
ground for an agency is that which has already
been ploughed over once or twice by an agent.
There is room for all who apply to the Murray
Hill Publishing Co., 129 East 18th street, New
York City, and "frst come, first served"

Special Correspondence Of the Sentinel
DURHAM, Aug. 17.-so much has been
written and said about Durham that the
average newspaper reader has all the big
factories and warehouses of our town stereo-
typed on his brain. We do not propose to
puff Durham, are content to let her well de-
veloped interests stand as a monument to
her energy and progress, but shall from time
to time give such items of interest as will
interest the readers of The SENTINEL, not
a small number of whom find in our own
city and county.
Considerable excitement was manifested
during the recent Congressional Convention
for this District. The Durham delegation
adopted
MAI. JOHN ". GRAHAM
as its standard bearer and rallied nobly and
solidly around the flag during the entire
fight. Many democrats in Mr.. Graham's
own town and county say they will not sup.
port him. Your reporter anxious to know
the reasons alleged against him, interrogat-

II think he meets all the requirements
you have mentioned
"Why then are you opposed to him -
Because he belongs to the aristrocracy
of Hillsboro."
Those who oppose Maj. Graham on this
platform should remember that any man,
woman or child within the broad limits of
the Republic is an aristocrat if he leads an
honorable and upright life and listens not
to the delusive voice of avarice calling for
the silver.f footed touches, purple coverlets,
and gold and silver plates, nor hears the
knock of fraud and corruption at his front
gate.
