FOOTBALL THANKSGIVING.
Our University Will Play the Georgia
University Team at Atlanta.

Atlanta, Ga. Nov. 25.-(Special.l- ~
Owing to the differences existing be-
tween the Athletic Associations of Yir-
ginia and the University of North Caro-
lima, the Thanksgiving game of the foot
ball team OF Carolinas Varsity will be
played this year iii Atlanta with the
University of Georgia eleven.
Football enthusiasts all over the
South are watching with interest the
coming struggle for the championship
of the South. of which this game with
the University of Georgia is a part.
North Cardinals record is familiar TO
all Tar Heels interested in ath-
letic sports, hut as vet they
know little or nothing of the
Georgia eleven, and it may not be
amiss at the present time, owing to the
close approach of Thanksgiving 30 to
look somewhat into the record Of the
claimants to football honors from
Georgia.
Georgia opened up her grid-iron cam
paign this season, under the able
coaching of Saussy, well known Cor
nell fo0tbalist, who has labored incess-
antly to bring out a winning team, but
has been confronted with many OBJ
stacles-raw material, slow runners and
various other minor defects that have
rendered his position anything but an
enviable one. Thus far, Georgia has
been engaged in grid-iron struggles with
five Southern college teams with the
following results:
Georgia VS.. Clemson College. = 10 to o
Georgia VS.. Ga. Tech. College .33 to 0
Georgia vs.. Univ. of the South. o to u
Georgia VS.. Univ. Tennessee. -. 0 to 3
Georgia VS.. Auburn (Ala). to IL
The game with the Auburn (Ala.)
team was called on account of darkness
game, but it is generally conceded to
be Alabama's game by GeOrgia's most
ardent supporters. Since her game with
the University of the South (Sewanee)
the Georgia boys have shown wonderful
development and are working hard TO
make the North Carolina boys feel
that if they win they must put up ''the
best they have in the shop"
The Thanksgiving game in Atlanta
will be a pleasant relief to the North
arrangements which have always exist
ed at Richmond and old U. n. C.'s
many loyal supporters in Georgias
cdplldi VIII iHdhe lHcLu leel iHdL they
are, at least, in the hands of their
friends.
The final game of the football year,
for the championship of the South, WIZ
also be played in Atlanta on December
ID, between the University of the South
and the University Of North Carolina,
and promises to be one Of the most in
teresting and exciting games ever play
ed on the grid-iron.

THANKFULNESS

Thursday of this week being Thanks
giving Day, the News and Observer, as
is its wont, prints this morning mat
ter appropriate to the season, from
the pens of men whom all North Caro-
lima knows. We can not % letter
than recommend it to the consideration
Of our readers.
1t is worth while to remember that
Thanksgiving Day is not alone time
set apart when we should return thanks
to Supreme Power for the good things
of life that have fallen to our lot and
for the evils that we have escaped, bur
Il time when, in all kindness and char.
ity, we should remember the less fortr-
nate that they too may have cause to
give thanks. In other words it is an oc-
casion not for the display Of a solitary
and pharisaic gratitude. but rather one
when he is doubly blest who shall see to
ii that his gratitude is shared by others.
This is the view of Thanksgiving Day
that is coming, year by year, to prevail!
more largely as man understands more
and more that in wide sense he is his
''brothers keeper The struggle for
existence grows sharper we are told
it is perhaps true. But let it not be for
gotten that it is also true that the num-
her who are ever ready to extend
helping hand to the weak who have fall
len in a too strenuous conflict increases
with the process of the suns" This. -
a correspondent says, is in itself mat
ter of thanksgiving among men.
May the good cheer of each ne I'm
bounded and may the gratitude Of each
be no less than the occasion FOR it.

Mans Heritage.
A Peculiar Blessing Handed Down
From Heaven to the Children
of Men.

In the beginning before God created
mankind, He prepared for his coming.
Natures storehOuse was abundantly
filled with all mans needs--in sickness
and in health<for God knew to what
his fall would lead, and accordingly pre-
pared, in mercy, the herbs, roots and
banks, after several kinds and endowed
Man with wisdom to find therein a boon
for all the ills to which the human flesh
might fall heir, through transgression.
In after years man went forth TO
search and God rewarded his efforts by
revealing to him the ingredients to pre-
pare the formula of what today stands
pre-eminently at the head of all other
remedies in its class; hereditary blood
diseases-scrofula, eczema, etc, vanishes
before the sweep of its mastery curative
properties; Indigestion, chills, fever, ma
larial poison, rheumatism, govt, and
similar diseases likewise perish and re-
turn no more to the system when this
great remedy is used. Then too it never
fails to cure cancer in its worst form.
You will agree with us when we tell
you to what we refer, for like the writer,
the map of the civilized world is dotted
here and there with grateful humanity
who are ever ready to sing its praise and
attest to its merits: we speak of Natures
gift to humanity-Mrs. Joe Persons
Remedy. Hark! the refrain. Amen!
Amen. $1.00 per bottle at all drug

and that he was the chief agent in the
renewal of her inward and spiritual life.
An agnostic Whiggism had degraded the
church from a spiritual organization into
a mere political mechanism; it had, as
Cowper later on put it, made
The symbols of atoning grace
An office-key, picl1lock to place
The hungry sheep looked up and We're
not fed; half the parishes in England
were void of spiritual life, many were
sunk in the lowest vice without restraint
or reproof. The governing classes were
perhaps even feebler and more corrupt
than in the reign of the second Charles"
This is not new to careful students of
eighteenth century history. There is
abundant contemporary evidence to es-
tabhSh its truth The Spectator says
that 1T seemed as though English so
ciety We're doomed to decadence," and
that humanity speaking, it would have
ensued had it not been for the new
movement of which Wesley was the
leading religious and moral expression.
There are several passages, We
marked, it would be instructive to copy,
but we give but the closing sentence:
May the country which bore him
and the University Oxford which
reared him give us in the coming cen
tury such another religious leader to
aid us, in the spirit of sobriety and
truth, in the eternal contest with the
evils and sins which grow like weeds in
our human soil"

Spirit of the Press
WESLEY AND HIS WORKS.

Wilmington Messenger.
We mentioned that there was fresh
interest gathering about the name OF
John Wesley in his native country
England Literary men and others dis
cuss him. Lord Macaulay was the first
great writer to recognize the distinguish
ed gifts and services of the very eminent
ecclesiastical statesman. Mr. Lecky, the
very able historian, whose History of
England in the Eighteenth Century" is
monumental and extended, filing eight
oCtavos, called particular attention to
the work and influence Of Mr.. Wesley.
1t has been some fifteen years perhaps
since we read it but we distinctly re-
call that he discussed the wesleyan
Movement" through many pages, we
think quite twelve or thirteen. He said
but for Mr.. Wesley's work among the
middle and lower classes the bloody
scenes and wild fanaticism that rushed
over France during the Revolution" be-
ginning in 1889, would have crossed the
narrow channel and swept over England
that Mr. Wesley saved England from
such stupendous calamity and curse.
We are not reporting him, but use our
own language and state conclusions as.
we remember them. In the London
Spectator Of some two months ago there
appeared an interesting paper discussing
"Wesley's Services to England" The
Spectator is of high rank among Eng
lands most famous literary journals.
Since then, the distinguished w. Il. Hen
ley, essayist and poet, has written
paper on Wesley. but which we have not
seen. As we are not writing for de-
nominational organ, we do not go into
the subject here as we otherwise would
We merely treat Wesley as we would

MUS or Cramner or Knox or any other

recalling great events and prominent re-
ligious leaders, says this: but when
all is said and done, john Wesley re-
mains the one supreme and towering fig
ure, a characteristic product Of England
and one of the noblest and most sainted
of her sons" Not one of these writer's
who recognize the great parts and emf
nent usefulness Of John Wesley was
Methodist. Here is the testimony of
the Spectator:
IF it be asked what is Wesley's su
preme title to fame, the answer, we
think, would be that he arrested the
moral and spiritual decline of England,

pEwEY,s OPINION or orls

DEWEY'S OPINION OF OTIS.
Springfield Republican.
Admiral Dewey was quoted on Tues
day by the Washington Star the chief
administration paper at the national
capital, as having said
If Leonard Wood (tha. is Gen.
Wood, i'll command mt Santiago,
had been in command OF the forces
ut Manila there would have been no
war; or, if there had been, it would
not have lasted more than six weeks.
You are the 26th man / have SAID
this tos | am going to say it to
81 The 9th will be the President"
The admiral did then CO. adds the
Star. land make the same statement 20
the President"
1t was after the admiral had exp,ess
ed that opinion to the 9th man thai the
President, on the eve Of the elections,
asked his Philippine commission for a
preliminary" report. Says the Star:
This preliminary report was made
at the request of the President, 10
cover only certain indicated points
with reference to the Philippine
question. after the President had
been informed of Dewey's opinion Of
Otis"
The Star claims that the preliminary
report was silent on the subject Of the
conduct of affairs by Gen. Otis" con-
corning whom Dewey had expressed his
personal opinion to the 9th man. But
it was not silent That report contain
ed a beautiful whitewash of Gen. Otiss
management prior to the outbreak of the
A
naldo as 'sexciting everybody, and espe-
fcially the military men, by claiming in
dependence" The Tagal villain had
made up his mind, after tine landing
of our troops, that it would be neces-
sary to fight the Americans" 1t was
all the savage Aguinaldos fault. For
the commissioners solemnly said: DE
piprable ais war is, the one in which
we are now engaged was unavoidable
by us If it was unavoidable, then
Otis was not ut fault, and, if Otis acted
with fIawless wisdom during that period,
it follows that no other officer in his
place could have prevented hostilities.
But Dewey says unofficially, accord
ing to the Washington Star, that had
Leonard Wood been in Otis's place there
wouldn't have been a war. Then Otis
must have been at fault. 1t is impos-
sible to reconcile Dewey talking unoffi-
cially with Dewey talking officially as
one Of the commissioners who signed a
preliminary" report made ito cover on
ly certain indicated points" Either the
Washington Star, an administration pa
per, is lying about what the admiral
ted the u different men, or the Admiral
signed n report which he could not have
taken the trouble to read. For it is
inconceiyable that Dewey, believing
Otis guilty of bad management, would
officially indorse the unqualified state
ment that the war was unavoidable by
us that is, literally forced upon us.
The only point The Republican cares
to make in this connection is that
Deweys private talk discredits the COM
missions report, and deepens the convic-
tion that it was partisan, n-judical
document designed to diStort the truth,
rather than to present it in its exact
historical proportions.

POOR LITTLE DE CASTELLANE.

That miserable little wretch. Count
BOni de Castellane who married Anna
Gould, has made a donkey of himself on
various occasions of late. rs queer
antics ait the French race course when
President Loubert was hit with a cane
by one of the Royalist rowdies and his
proclamations" during the late Ameri-

he confined his silly outbursts as to what
he thinks of people to his home field, he

he has, Helen Could who has the mis-
fortune to be the little fools sister-in-
law simply because she has seen fit TO
join hands with the American women
who ask Congress not to admit Roberts,

she is an American, takes tiendish de-
light in any sort OF newspaper putfery
She did even worse than that, he says:
''She posed as the friend of the soldiers"
during our late war with his dear
friends. the Sraniards!'

more of his time to minding his own
business, provided his wife's money out

his own debts for a whole week. What
makes his criticism of Helen Gould all
the more contemplate is that he drags
his wife along with him as a copartner
in his denunciation of her sister. 1t
may be that Boni will come to America
again when his funds are short. It
would be interesting to see him on the
