MANSION PRESIDENT WILSON TO
OCCUPY IN PARIS.
History Assoziated With United States,
North Carolina and Ala
mance County.
Below we are publishing an
article from the pen of the learned
Capt, Samuel A. A.she of Raleigh
which appeared in yesterday's
News and Observer. There is a
link in the narration that con
nects the mansion which Presi
dent Wilson will occupy at the
Peaco Confereuco in Paris with
Alamance county.
The article follows:
I'llK MIIHATM.
As it is announced*that Presi
dent Wilson is to occupy the Murat
Mansion in Paris,.some account of
the Murats while in America may
be of interest.
Joachim Murat married Napo
leon's sister, Caroline. He became
King of Italy. He was killed in
1815. lie had two sons, Napoleon
Lucien Murat and Acbille, who
continued to live with their mother
at Triestp for some years.
Achillo Murat came to America
and, in 18;i>, married Caroline
Bird Willis, a great nieceofOeorge
Washington. He lived at Talla
hassee, Flu., and had no children.
He died in 1817.
Napoleon Lueien Mural lived nt
ISoidentou, N. J., where his uncle,
Joseph Honaptirlc, the King of
Spain, hud located, becoming an
American citizen, but known us
Count do Lurvilliers. Perhaps
because his uncle lived at Horden
ton, Iho young Napoleon Lueien
Murat located there. 11l lM.'ll lie
married Carol inn Goorgiana Fru
iter, of .South Carolina.
This Miss Fraser wan a daughter
of "Miss Clitherail of the Cape
Fear." Her father was a brother
of General Fraser, a Hritish ofli
cer, who wan killed at Hraddock's
defeat in Virginia by the Indians,
and ho was first cousin to the his
torian, Fraser.
They had a daughter, born at
Borden ton—Princess Caroline Mu
rat; another daughter, Anna; and
a son, Prince Joachim. They all
lived At Hordenton until the down
fall of Louis Phillippe, in IS4B,
when they went to France;and
when Louis Napoleon was Km
peror of France, they wore ol the
royal family.
A son of that I'rince Joachim is
the present Prince Joachim, and
his wife is a granddaughter of
Marshal N'ey; aud it is his house
that President ~Wilson is to oc
cupy, lie is descended from "Miss
Clitherail of the Cape Fear,"
whose daughter was Carolina

Baptist State Convention
The next session of the Baptist
State Convention will be held in
the city of Greensboro, December
3-6 (the Convention has just been
called oIT on accountof influenza.)
The Convention will meet Tues
day morning anl will be preceded
by the Baptist Ministers' Confer
ence of North Carolina, which will
meet on Monday.
It may be well to state, for the
benefit of those who are not fa
miliar with the Baptist fortn of
church government, just tohat
the Convention is. The Baptists,
like the Congregationalists, have
a congregational form of church
government. That being true the
Convention is neither an execu
tive, a legislative, nor a judicial
•body.
Kvcry local Baptist church is a
little republic within itself. It
makes and executes its own laws,
and administers discipline with
out any interference from any
outside auHiority, as it recognizes
no such authority. There is no
such thing as "The Baptist
Church" when by that term the
local churches of any given terri
tory are meant. For instance, it
is not good liaptist terminology
to say "The Southern liaptist
Church," or "The Northern Bap
tist Church." In speaking of
such group of churches the term
"denomination" is used. There
is 110 system of ecclesiastical courts
with Baptists and, honce, no ap
peal from the decisions of a local
church.
It will be seen from the forego
ing that the function of a Baptist
State Convetion is purely ad
visory. It formulates no laws,
executes no orders, and tries no
cases. It has no jurisdiction as
to questions of docy-tine. All
these are matters that belong to
the local church.
If no action taken by the Con
vention is binding on the local
churches, the question may be
asked, "Why are theaunual meet
ings held?" While the Conven
tion has no authority to enforce
the observance of any recom
mendation it may make, there is
a beautifnl spirit of co-operation
among the liaptists which leads
them to work together with as
much unity and harmony as do
those denominations which' have
their more complex organ issa
t ions.
The denominational paper serves
as a channel for expression of
opinion in regard to any denomi
national policy that may be-pro
posed. If any matter of unusual
importance is to be introduced in
the Convention, it is customary
for the brother who expects to
introduce the measure to give
notice of lus purpose in the Re
corder before the meeting of the
Convention, and it is discussed in
the columns of fhe paper. In this
way unity of action is usually
secured. If, however, a matter is
presented to the Convention and
discussed, and it is seen that the
Convention cannot act with a con
siderable degree of unanimity, »
motion is usually made and adopt
ed, which carries the quest ion
over for a year, thus giving time
for mature consideration. Wheu
such action is taken there is
almost always a satisfactory agree
ment reached at the following ses
sion of the Convention.
Another tiling which helps to
secure concert of notion is the
spirit of democracy which per
meates the bod};. A "steam
roller" won hi Moon bo thrown on
the jnnk pile if by any means it
should chance to liiul its way into
the Convention TIHII. The hum
blest layman in hII (lie .State in an
much entitled to the floor of the
Convention as the bixKOHt preach
er who comes from the most, im
portant city church. Thevoieof
one man counts for us much as
that of another. Where there is
such a spirit of democracy, and
where the body is composed of
I "delegates" from all sorts of
churches anil from all parts of the
St ile, whatever action is taken
after free and full discussion,
usually reflects the sentiment of
the denomination in I lie Slate at
large.
Furthermore, their democratic
spirit leads Baptists to have a
very high regard for the voice of
thy majority, and if a majority of
I lie Convention decides upon a
certain policy, a local church,
whatever ininhi be its opinion in
regard ;■ > the matter, usually
acquicsceM in the action of the
Convention and falls into line.
| their history North Carfl
j limnftt>t'sts have beeu free from
i factious ami disseusiouH. This
I does not mean that tliey have not
| often differed in their views, for
i they have. There is hardly a ses
isioti of the Convention at which
I there is not difference of opinion,
and the brethren express them
selves freely upon these (ueMio|is;
I but they differ as brethren, and
I each man on either side of a ques
tion believes that the adoption of
his views by the Convention would
lie wise. If, however, a majority
is against him lie gracefully yields,
and goes with the majority. So
long as Christian men are prompt
ed to advocate measures because
they believe they are right, and
Are not actuated by a diotrephau
spirit, there is not much danger
of serious division.
Work »l the IVuutu.
The Baptist women of the State
have their separate organi/.ition,
and do their work in their own
way. Their contributions go
through the regular channels of
their respective churches and are,
of course, counted in the total;
but tliey have missionary societies
iu the local churches and they also
have a State meeting which they
call "The Woman's Missionary
Union, Auxiliary to tbo Baptist
State Convention.' A-» the name
of the organization indicates,
theirs is an auxiliary work. The
separate organization has proven
a very wise arrangement. _ The
women contribute more than they
otherwise would, they study mis
sions and are intelligent as to the
work, and they act as a stimulus
to the churches in their contribu
tions to missions.
The women hold their annual
Stale meeting in March. Their
last annual report shows that they
contributed last year over SOO,(XX)
to missions. Hitherto they have
confined their work to missions,
but at their last meeting they
added Christian Education, and
tbey will be a power in raising the
million dollars for the equipment
and endowment of the Baptist
SCIIOOIB of the State, which is the
gigaritic task that the denomina
tion has undertaken.

"I was All Down and Out But Now I Feel 20 Years
Younger," Declares Prominent Truck Farmer
in Signed Statement.
THIRTEEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL ALSO BENEFITTED.
" My Daughter Looked As Pala As Beef Tallow But Now Her Cheeks Are
Like Red Roses and She is Like a Different Child "
Sick, sallow, listless people .who
have been taking medicine as far

who never seem to get any better
from it, are advised to carefully

the well kfrown and highly re

wood, S. C. This is what lie
says:
"I was all down and out—was
no account all the time. I had
stomach trouble, my food didu't
seem to digest, my kidneys ached.
I was constipated and always had
pains in the back and limbs. My
system became greatly run down
until I thought nothing would
ever do mo any good any morf.
But one day I read in the news
papers where this hcrb-»yid-root
medicine called Drtsco- wan doing
so much good among people I
knew to bo in the same condition
as I was and so I decided to take
a chance and try some of this
mediciue. I'm mighty glad I did
that now because I feel 20 years
younger since I started to take
Dreco. All my troubles seem to
fall away from ine and I am once
more able to enjoy life.
"My 13-year-old daughter had
a spell of malarial fever and it
left her kidneys in bad shape.
She suffered agonies from stop
page of tlie^water,and just three
quarters of a bottle of Dreco cured
her. She looked as pale as beef
tallow but now her cheeks are like
red roses and she is like a dif
ferent child.
"1 have told lota of my friends
about Dreco and some of ray
neighbors have taken a few doses
from my bottle."

above interview is now on sale by
good drug stores throughout this

C., was held in Gerrard Hall last
Tuesday night. \ cloud of de
spondency has settled over many
of the S. A. T. C. students, es
pecially those slated for officers'
camps, since the signing of armis
tice. Their military work is with
out a definite purpose now, they
think. The main purpose of the
meetiug was to put new life in
this group and instill in them a
determination to "carry on" with
their work in spite of the fact that
the war has ended. It was a gen
eral "get-together" meeting and
served its purpose of putting zest
and enthusiasm into the men.
Oue of the biggest problems
confronting the directors of the
8. A. T. C. in connection with de
mobilization of units in college is
what per cent of the students will
be forced leave college because of
the lack of means. At present
they get S3O per' month addition
to uniforms and subsistence. Pro
fessor P. 11. Daggett, acting
regional educational director of
the S. A. T. C., thinks that prob
ably one-third of the men will be
forced to leave if the S. A. T. C.
is disbanded. There exists a dif
ference of opinion among the Uni
versity faculty and. military au
thorities as to when the S. A. T. C.
will he demobilized. Some think
it will be disbanded by Christmas,
while others contend the Govern
ment will carry the work on until
June. At all events the regula
tions governing the college units
will be considerably modified.
Authority has already been re
ceived from Washington to the
effect that all, military details con
flicting with ac identic work may
be eliminated. Colleges will prob
ably be free to lay out their own
programs after Christinas. '
Marked interest aud contagious
enthusiasm are being manifested
in the High School Debating
Union this year. Oue hundred
schools have already joined the
union aud others are coining in
daily. sDue to the end of the war
the bulletiu containing the issues
on both sides of the question is
undergoing revision aud will not
be out before December 15 in
stead of November 30, as pre
viously announced.
There will be no Carolina-Vir
ginia game this year. Instead
Carolina will play the Officers'
Traiuiug Company of Camp Polk,
Italeigh, on Turkey Day at Chapel
Hill. The Officers' Team is com
posed of former football stars
from all over the country. Hence,
the contest between the two teams
is expected to be intensely inter
esting. Many gridiron enthu
siasm from all over ihe State are
expected to coine to Chapel Hill
to witness the contest.
