COLONEL SANDERS STORY.

HOW BLUE GRASS HERO ESCAPED THE
 CRUEL CLUTCHES OF CHRONIC MALARIA.
 Col. John Sanders of the old state of Kentucky, while visiting in New Orleans the other day, told the following remark able story:
 .During the late war, while serving in tue Confederate army, acquired fever and ague. The doctors succeeded in breaking the chills partially, but I continued to lose flesh until weighed sixty pounds less than l did when l was first attacked. Oh! but was miserable. l had no appetite, tongue coated, nasty taste in my mouth all the time, bowels out of order, salow skin and as cross as hungry wolf. Sometimes would get q little benefit from the doctors, but most of every season was spent in wretchedness and despair so bitter that death would have been welcome. This state of things continued until about six years ago. friend of mine from the west, who was visiting me at my stock farm in Kentucky, induced me to quit all other medicines and try Pe-ru-na. did so, and, to my astonishment and joy, soon fonnd myself improving. l have regained my health entirely. weigh as much as ever did, and there ism a stronger or happier man in the state of Kentucky We think up our way there's no medicine like Pe-ru-na for old malarial affections. l would advise everybody to send to the Pe-ru-na Drug MRnufacturing company of Columbus, Ohio, for one of their free illustrated books on malaria" Q

 think MT. Taylor shows that the execn- tion of Maximilian was not an act of revenge on the part of republican leaders, though the Mexicans demanded his life as the pen- atty. Mir. Romero, the Mexican minister, wrote to friend: "If Maximilian should receive pardon and return to Europe he would be a standing menace to the peace of Mexico; he would call himself emperor and have court at Miramar, the rallying point of all dissatisfied Mexicans, who would 1n- trique with him; the powers ould recog- nize him In the event of a return to Mex ico, following the example of Sturbides, and thereafter the country with complca- tions, as also when the devoted and heroic Princess Salm- Salm, with tear stained eyes, pleaded mercy at the hands of Juarez, his final answer was: "l am grleved, madam, to see you thus on your knees be- fore me; but If all the kings and queens in Europe were in your place could not spare that life.
 "It is not who take it, it is the people and the law, and if l should not do its will the people would take 1t and write also:' "Home there came stately fleet, with the
 prince in winding sheet;
 And they laid him in the vaults beside Lis

 Yet, if he could but have said, where he wished

 'Twould have been within that valley, where

Horace Greeiv,s wife

The Washington Postrecently con
tanned a very interesting account OF
Horace Greely's trip to North Caro-
lima for wife. He was married at
Warrenton. A North Carolinian
adds the "reminiscences to the Posts
article: "Mr Greedy married Miss
Cheney, but it was in 1886 instead
OF 1912. Miss Cheney was a native
OF New Hampshire. She had never
seen a negro until she went South,
and her first sight of one caused her
sew. re fright. She lived at the
home of the father of Gen. Braxton
Bragg and his brother, who became
Governor OF the State and afterward
United States Senator. Old Bill
Yancey referred to in the Post acted
as Mr. Greeley's groomsman on the
occasion of the wedding, and the
young women of the Bragg house
hold, the sister of Gen. Bragg,
were the bridesmaids Miss Cheney
must have been an excellent school
teacher, for William A Jenkins was
one of her pupils He became Attor-
ney General oil the State and a dis
tiuguished man, and never spoke OF
his success without referring in CRATE
tut terms to tie influence that Miss
Cheney's personality and teachings
had upon his life.

THAT POLITICAL BEE
1t il BuzzinG in tho Bonnet Of Co
Carr.

To the Editor of the Sentinel
From the Durham Sun you pub
lished yesterday Mr.. Carr's letter, adj
dressed to Mr.. J. T. Pinnix, which in
dictates that political bee of some
kind was buzzing in his bonnet while
he wrote. He seems to be quite on
his metal and loses his temper. That
old (?) bee must have stung the gal
liant (?) Colonel on the nape of the
neck again (?) as he exhibits symp-
toms similar to those exhibited during
his last previous (?) violent attack
in 1892.
The Colonel will find an uphill job
on his hands to make North Carroll
mans believe an increase OF oax ON to-
bacco will benefit them. He could
easier make them believe he is a gal
laLt (?) fellow. They believe that
already. There are no recent rumors
to the contrary.
Perhaps the Colonel sees that. with
the tobacco tax increased, the small
manufacturers of smoking tobacco will
Oe driven out Of the business, and he
again can have the whole thing to him
self without competition as he once
did. Such a thing any lover of riches
might covet, as doubtless the Colonel
does, but it is not good for the people
and the Colonel knows it.
He suggests that leaf tobacco was
higher wneu the tax was higher. So
was corn, wheat, pork, lard, bacon,
potatoes peas, ground peas and in
fact every thing else, without regard
to tax high or Iow-or no tax at all
And no one knows better than Mr..
Carr that the reduction of the tobac-
co tax has had nothing to do with
lowering prices Of leaf tobacco or any
thing else.
The prices of every product of our
country have tumbled under the gen
eral financial depression that has
been approaching fer three or four
years and which reached low water
mark during the past year and from
which nothing has yet rallied to any
appreciabIe extent.
The gallant ~ Colonel has exhibited
a spirit CT unfairness and deception in
his plan of argument as well as bad
temper.
