To the Editor: Some one has called
Washington the graveyard of daily
newspapers. Raleigh is in some sort
entitled to the same distinction with
this difference. While many papers
have failed in Raleigh, in every in-
stance another has arisen from the
ashes. Thus The News and Observer
is descended in direct line from the
first Democratic daily ever attempted
in the city. This was the Daily Senti-
mel. 1t was founded by Rev. w. e.
Pell and made it's first appearance
on the Sth of August, 1865.
At this time things political and all
other things were in a state of chaos.
The mutterings of war were still in
the ears of the people and while Hol-
ernor of the State, the real administra-
ton of affairs was in the hands of
provost marsha1S.
The Sentinel was continued by Mr..
Pell with Mai. Seaton Gales as CO.
editor until December 1. 1S6S-Josiah
Turner, Jr., became proprietor and
editor. Then came the real times
when history was hot in the making"
In the elections of 1868 almost every
man who was fitted to vote was dis

BentOn's Comedians
Delight Large Audience at the
Opera House.

Perce R. Benton's comedians
made their initial appearance at the
opera house last evening and de-
lighted the large audience that was
present. Slaves of Money" was
the play and while Mr.. Benton ex-
planned that his company was
greatly handicapped by defective
stage arrangements, the production
on the whole was highly credita-
bic to the players.
Perce Benton is unquestionably
one Of the most clever and versa
tite actors on the road He show
ed remarkable ability last night in
the various characters which he
impersonated, equally strong in the
role oi actor, match-vender, tramp,
Frenchman and Italian. His spec
ialities made a wonderful hit. Ben
ton is a whole show in himself but
to appreciate him you must see him
for yourself.
Miss Ruth Gale is another mem
Der Of the company upon whom
too much praise can scarcely be
bestowed. She took the part of
Daisy in the play and the name
was certainly appropriate. She is
an actress Of rare ability and COM
pletely captivates the audience
whenever she appears. She poss-
esses a splendid contralto voice and
her singing was one of the most
pleasing features q the evening.
The other membews Of the COM
pany were well adapted to their
parts and acquitted Themselves
very creditably.
Tonight, The Convict s Daugh-
ter will be presented and tomorrow
afternoon there will be matinee
for ladies and children at which
time the popular old play East
Lynne will be put ol. Every
one present at the matinee will re-
|ceive a Christmas gift. Prices at
the matinee, IS and 25 cents.

with an accident that came near
proving fatal. They were driving

street between Lyon and Ellsworth
they drove onto a pile of gravel in
front of the NJ. E. church. When the
rig struck the gravel pile, the horse
took fright. upset the buggy, and ran
away. The buggy was demolished and
the occupants thrown in the street
Mr.. Kennedy was picked up in an un-
conscious condition, but he soon re-
covered. and aside from a serious
strain in tht back he was little the
worse for the accidentMr, Bevins was
not seriously injured, though shaken
up little.
