A MACS HEAD STORY.
Portrait of Aaron Burr's Daughter
Washed Ashore at Mays Head.

Col. r. B. Creepy, the Gamaliel of North
Carolina journalism, in the current issue
of the Elizabeth City Economist, writes
delightfully."- of Mays Head. From his ar
ticle this incident is taken:
1.-The pioneers took board principally
with Mrs. Tillett, afterward Mrs. Mann. a
kind hearted old widow lady who repre-.
sented the upper class of Banks society.
She had relics of flotsam and ship wrecks,
and her memories of rescues and wrecks
were of exceeding interest.
Among her mementoes of wreck and
salvage, portrait of rare beauty and as
a work OF art, was conspicuous. 1t had
history, evidently, but she kept it to
herself, and she never would part with it,
although she had many and tempting
offers to purchase it. At length she hand
ed 1T to physician in payment of his
bill for long attendance, and he being
curious in antique lore, traced it to the
| long lost Mrs. Governor Aston, of South
Carolina. Theodosia Burr, the sad and
mysterious romance of American his
| tory.
In his Investigation, DR.. Pool discover
ed that the portrait came ashore in a
schooner that was said to be the same in
| Charleston for New York to meet her
father, Aaron Burr, on his return from
his long exile from America. The schoon-
er that was cast ashore bore evidence OF
having been the victim of piracy, and the
portrait which was examined by friends
of Mrs. Aston, in Charleston, was said
to be very good likeness of Theodosia
Burr.
Many persons who knew the doctors
fordness for what was marvellous and SEN
sational, pronounced the whole matter 3
baseless fabric. But it is certain that
many facts connected with it point to its
verify.
Among Others fact came under our
personal observation, which strengthened
our confidence in the truth of the Theo-
dosia Burr story.
Some ten years ago a lady came to
own from Milwaukee and brough.
with her letter of introduction to US.
She claimed to be blood relative of
Theodosia Burr, and came here 20 see AMI
examine the portrait which Mrs Mann had
owned, and which she had heard Of She
was lady of about thirty years of age,
refined and cultured, and resembled the
portrait. She enquired of us as to the
truth of the interesting story. She asked
our opinion of it in the first interview
we had. We told her we had always
doubted 1T until that moment; that she
50 strlkingly resembled the portrait, that
We accepted 1t as the evidence of blood,

this price is about IS to $3.50 less per

ical research.
The result is a product that does
what oxygen does. Oxygen is the very
source Of all vitality, the most essen
tial element of life. Liquozone is a
vitalizing tonic with which no other
known product can compare. Its ef-
fects are exhilarating and purifying.
But germs are vegetables; and Liquo-
zone-lille an excess of oxygen-is
deadly to vegetable matter.
Liquozone goes wherever the blood
goes, destroying every germ in the

which medicine never cures. 1t will do
more for sick humanity than all the
drugs in the world combined.

DISTINGUISHED Men in Unmarked Graves

To the Editor: Col. Edward Buncombe
was a nephew of Joseph Buncombe, and
succe eded to his uncle's estate in Tyr
rell county, North Carolina. He was
Colonel of the 5th Regiment OF North
Carolina Continental Line; was severely
wounded at the battle of Germantown
and soon died from the effects OF these
wounds The State of North Carolina
owes her gallant son the tribute OF
memorial stone to mark his last resting
place, and we are reminded OF an illus
trious son of Pennsylvania, Hon. James
Wilson, one of the signers OF the Declara-
ton of independence from Pennsylvania,
who sleeps in an unmarked grave in the
private lot of the Johnston family at
Hayes about half a mile from the
town of Edenton, NJ C.
His memory deserves better treatment.
An appropriation of $1,000 by the Penn
sylvania Legislature would place over
his remains a monument to cUmmemor-
ate his public services to his State and
to the Republic.
The above is quoted from Mr.. ]. R. B.
Hathaway's Genealogical Record, Vol. L.,
No. A, page 526.
1t is fitting that the Society OF Daugh-
tiers of the Revolution should take every
occasion to remind the States and the

remain unpaid and unacknowledged, by

Germ Diseases.

These are the known germ diseases.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to help Nature overcome
the germs, and such results are indi-
rect and uncertain. Liquozone kills
the germs, wherever they are, and the
results are inevitable. By destroying
the cause of the trouble, it invariably
ends the disease, and forever.

The hrst four lay down that society

Berlin, Jan. 12.--The Russian govern
ment has informed the powers that it
will respect fully the rights any nation
has in Manchuria under treaty with
China. This declaration is made with
out reservation. Rassia gives formal
expression to this policy now in conse-
Quence of the controversy with Japan,
one of whose persistent contentious has
been for definition of Russia's policy
in Manchuria and an acknowledgment
Of Japan's trade privileges.
Substance Of Reply.
Russia's reply has been, in substance,
as follows:
eve cannot discuss Manchuria with
you any more than we could Australia
or the Philippines. Manchuria belongs
neither to us nor to you. 1t does notlie
within the jurisdiction of either Of us
to dispose of the future of Manchuria." !"
Russia, however, is willing to observe
the treaty rights of all the powers in
Manchuria and now engages to do so.
Russia, it is adoed, thus removes from
the negotiations one of the points upon
which japan counted for the moral sup
port Of other powers and whereon she
specially had the sympathy Of the Unit
ed States and Great Britain.
The terms of Russia's last note to
Japan are not known officially here, but
1t is understood to haye produced a
quieting effect on the Japanese states
men. Japan's reply, it is asserted, will
be in a similar tone. Japan has in
formed Germany that no troops have
been landed in Corea and that Japan has
no intention at present of so doing The
statement published in London on high
authority that Germany and the triple
alliance will remain neutral in the event
Of war between Russia and Japan Is con-
firmed here.
