DALHOUSE and
THE KOHINOOR.
Lord Curzon, while Viceroy of India,
once referred to his predecessors in
the government there as men who
“worked between an earth like iron
and a sky like brass, laying the foun
dations of empire.” None worked more
strenuously than the Marqulr of Dal-
housie, to whom Is mainly due the
unity of the Indian Empire. As Gover-
nor-General Lord Dalhousle introduc
ed the tedegraph, built railways, con
structed canals, reduced postage, and
organized departments of public in
struction.
tl is to Dalhousie that the English
owe their i)09session of the great Kohl-
noor diamond, a jewel of famous his
tory. In 181;! Runjeet-Slngh. an Indian
liotentate, extorted it from a political
refugee. After the second Eikh war In
ISli) Lord Dalhousie confiscated it on
account of the heavy debt owed to the
East India Company by the Lahore
state.
It is said that the company imagined
it was to become their property, but
the Governor-General sent it to Queen
X'lctoria. Those were adventurous
times, and It was only by great care
that the jewel reached Its destination.
For weeks the Governor-General wore
it on his person night and day.
xTbe tassels of the amulet in which
the diamond was set had been cut off
to diminish its bulk, and Lady Dalhou
sie had enclosed the armlet with Its
jewel in a leather bag. The bag was
sewed into a cashmere belt lined with
chamois, which Lord Dalhousie wore
constantly.
Two dogs,.Baron and Bendar, were
cliamed to the Governor-General’s bed,
so tlie safefy pf the jewel was Insured
while he &lej)t. As an additional pre-
cavjion, no one save his wife and one
r.ear relative knew its v,-hereabouts,
ar.d ic v. as finally safely conveyed to
t^ucen Victoria.

Of all the sights of the unique pa

a glimpse of the new king and queen
within the great, lumbering s-tate
coach, says the Providence .Journal.
This is the coach pre-eminent the
world over. If not the most ancient of
the vehicles of its type which appear
ed In the spectacular procession from
Buckingham Palace to Westhinster
Abbey when Edward was crowned it
was, of cour&e, the most magnificent,
not to say preposterous. Of stout Eng
lish ash, with an astonishing area of
glass, it was said to weigh three tons.
A dispatch from London reports Its
total destruction by fire in a shop
where it was being furnished for the
forthcoming occasion. There several
remarkable coaches' in the last corona
tion parade that had not seen service
since Victoria was crowned, though
many peers and peersses availed them
selves of'automobiles.
* Heroes Past And Pre
sent^' by Dr. Robinson
Claiming the,Blue Ridge mountains
as his home, and offering as an ex
cuse for being drunk yesterday that
he hpd met an old friend here who
s> nipothized with hinj in his recent
mislovtune when he was robbed by
bandits in Georgia, LaFayette Haw
kins, 72 years of age, a typical ‘•South
ern (’olouel." faced tiu^ recorder this
morning :ind told'an interesting story,
lie was allowed to go with the pay
ment of I lie costs-, and said he would
soon be on his way to Georgia again.
A little goatee, long, curlin.g n.ius-
iacho, waving white hair, and a rich
and eloquent drawl, made for the
gentleman an interesting character.
"I came frori the Blue Ridge moun
tains. suh.” he began, addressing the
recorder, “and I have had some mis
fortune. While traveling through the
good slate of Geoi'gia, I was robbed,
suh! Bold men held me at a pistol’s
point while stealing filthy lucre from
my person. But when I arrived in
the magnificent city of Charlotte, Suh,
1 met an acquaintance—Nay, I may
say a friend. T am 72 years of age,
Suh. and this friend and I exchanged
many reminiscences of the halcyon
days of icT-g ago.”
“It v.as clever of him to offer his
bottle and I say Avithout hesitation,
Suh, that I partook of its contents.
The fiery fluid made be just a little
tipsy. But, Stih, I am a gentleman,
and I ask tliis honorable court for
treatment usually accorded a gentle
man. I believe you will allow me to
wend my weary way down life’s path.”
This was too much for Recorder
Smith and he did not impose a fine.

Raleigh, N. C., Feb. 27.-The corpora
tion commission i» hearing today the
arguments for and against the Ral-
eigh-Hamlet shoo-fiy and require the
Ralelgh-Norlina shoo-ny to continue
its dally run to Weldon. What Is real
ly wanted Is an order from the com
mission for the shoo-fly to start each
morning from Weldon and run through
to Hamlet and return each day instead
of. at pres-ent having only a shoo-fly
service from Norllna to Raleigh and
return.
There is a A'ery general protest
among the people of the city against
the recent action of the c\ty authori
ties in allowing children of the ci^.v
to use their roller skates on the as
phalt pavements of the streets around
Capital Square and up Fayetteville
street. The demand is for an ordi
nance that will i)ut a stop to this as
the children liave come to make a
practice of getting hold of vehicles,
trams, automobiles and street car.s
to have themselves carried along with
less effort. any serious accidents
have already been narrowly averted.
The state school for the blind here
observed Bill Nye Day and raised a
contribution for the Bill Nye building
at the Stonewall Jackson Training
School, representing a real sacrifice
by the children for this noble undertak
ing. In the package of coin raised by
the children and the faculty there Avere

(luarters, 1 half dollar and one dollar

It Represents Twenty Years’ York of
Two Eminent Chemists.
After twenty years of study two
eminent French chemists discovered a
method by which the alkaloids or med
icinal elements of the cod’s liver might
be separated from the useless oil or
grease, retaining all the good of cod
liver oil and dispensing with the bad,
as the oil has no medicinal value.
These medicinal elements blended
with tonic iron and a mild medicinal
wine—make Vinol.
Vinol Is not a secret medicine, as
Its ingredients are printed on every
bottle, and in all cases where the
healing, strengthening influence of cod
liver oil is needed, Vinol will give
better results, for It contains all the
curatve. medicinal properties of cod
liver oil, but without the oil, and it is
easily assimlated and acceptable to
the w'eakest stomach.
For all run-down, w^eakened condi
tions, and to cure chronic coughs,
colds and bronchial troubles, Vinol is
unexcelled. We' sell it always with
the understanding that if it does not
do all we claim for it, we will refund
the money. R. H. Jordan & Co., Drug
