MADE HIM COLONEL.
The Last Official Atft of the War Sec¬
retary of the Confederacy.
A writer in a late number of the
Richmond (Va.) Times, gives the fol¬
lowing interesting account of the last
official act of the great War Secretary
of the Confedracy, Gen. JohnC. Breek
enridge:
New I can give your readers each
week anecdotes—none of them original
with myself—which for more than half
a century have shone with a mild radi¬
ance through the vapors of testhetic tea
or sparkled and blazed at the dinner ta¬
ble when libatious were poured with
no niggard hand to the sweet amenites
of our social and ttie hallowed memo¬
ries of our historic past.
Lest my introduction should resem¬
ble the portico only which designed concealed adorn, the
temple abruptly it was close to 1
will and give you an
anecdote related to me by General A.
R. Lawton, of Georgia, which will de¬
rive most of its interest, perhaps, from
the fact that they were real incidents
in life, aud were uttered by the lips of
that great Statesman and soldier, Gen.
John C. Breckinridge, Stygiau of Kentucky.

badly-conceived and worse executed

and offered to divide with him his gold,
which was not enough for two. To

WHY WE CUT THE PRISES.
OUR NOVEMBER SALES
Thus fur are fttr in excess of last year, and it may be
asked: Why then cut, the prices in some lines of
Dress Goods and Coverings in the very midst of the
season? The answer: Because we have decided to
close out all odd lots, regardless of value, and instead
of waiting until towards the close of the season, we
arc resolved to move them while business is brisk, if
making low prices on them will accomplish our pur¬
pose. reductions genuine—not

Yet as if grieving human to efface
All vestige ol the race.

But none, alas! shall mourn for mu.”
From (his sad reverie he was roused
by his faithful follower, who pointed to
the white sail of the coming boat and
again begged to be permitted to accom¬
pany him. Touched in that dark hour
by his unselfish devotion the tnought
llashed upon Breckinridge; gold and
silver he will not take, but I may give
him something he will value hereafter.
Taking from his pocketbook several
commissions and signed in blank by the
President requiring only his own
signature as Secretary of War, he took
out one aud said: John .Tones, for your
faithful service to President Davis and
myself I will now commission you a
major in the Confederate service, and
your children and children’s children
will value it when you and I and the
Confederacy alike are dead. lobissur
prise Jones stood with his cap off,
scratching his head. Finally he drawl
ed out: Ginral, 1 don’t deserve this
honor. 1 have only done my duty as a
soldier, and I don’t care to be a major.
But, Ginral, mv neighbor, Bill Sykes,
was'lected Major in our regiment cause
he owned a grocery and was free with
his heker. Now he dominickers over
me during the whole war. If you could
make me leftenant curnel so I could
rank Bill Sjkes when I get home 1
would be the proudest man in the world.
Breckinridge says: Kneeling on Tam¬
pa’s desert strand I filled up the com¬
mission :
“John Jones. Lieutenant-Colonel,
Confederate States army, granted and in
consideration of great fidelity cour¬
age show'll in circumstances of difficul¬
ty and danger in the personal service of
the J’resident and Secretary of War of
the Confederate States of America,”
and this was my last official act.
Any one in posession of 25 cents cau go to

bottle of Salvation Oil and be cured at once of
rheumatism, neuralgia, or any pain or ache.

Mrs. Grover Cleveland.
If the question were asked, “Who is
the most popular woman in America?”
there is hut little doubt that the major¬
ity of the votes east would be for Mrs.
Grover Cleveland. Usually the interest
in a President and bis family ceases
immediatelyiupon his goiug out of of¬
fice; but the pretty girl-wife of Mr.
Cleveland has so taken the hearts of
the fickle public by storm that during
the past four years her proceedings
have been noted with almost the same,
as when her husband did not write the
“Ex” before his title. Exacting and
hypocritical as social Washington is,
it i8 a high tribute to the grace and
tact with which the voung chatelaine
0 f the White House filled her difficult
position, that she is declared “not to
have left an enemy behind her in
Washington.” Sincelhe
advent of Baby Ruth, the
amount ot public interest and attention
showered on the little lady and her
mama has been overpowering, and
both Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland have done
V hcir best to escape uot.orietv in the
privacy of their quaint little country
bousw, Gray Gables. For a person in
the thick of the preparations for a Pres¬
idential campaign, as is the Ex-Pres
ideut, unavoidable; more or less publicly is, of coarse,
but it is his earnest desire
that as much of the turmoil and excite¬
ment may be kept out of his domestic
life as possible.
Mention has already been made in
the Housekeeper’s Weekly of a Wo¬
man's Democratic Club whose secreta¬
ry wrote to Mrs. Cleveland for permis¬
sion to call it the “Frances Cleveland
Influence Club,” aud of Mr. Cleveland's
reply, distinctly forbiding the use of
Mr. Cleveland's name for any political
purpose whatever. Some criticism has
been passed and on the letter, as being too
brusque peremptory in its tone;
but it is very natural that a man should
be averse to the promiscuous and not
always respectful use ot political his wife s name
in the touch aud go of 1 contest.

I In harmony with her husband’s do
sires, Mrs. Cleveland takes no direct
part in politeal issues, smiling a gentle
but decided refusal to all would-be in
