Reynolds, in the 79th year of hisage. Colonel Reynolds, fifty years ago, was one of the most promising young men in the state, and was noted for his in dustry, integrity and active interest | n military affairs. He fell deeply in love with a beautiful young girl belonging to one of the first ake 3 Claremont county. He seemed to be favorably regarded by the girl herself, but her parents had more ambitious views for her, and would not allow her to marry him The young man went to work to win aname and position He elected to the state legislature, served one term with credit and distinction, and returning to his home made an- other effort to secure the hand of the girl. He was again refused, but after he had been elected a third time over prominent and wealthy competitors the opposition was ap- parently silenced, the young woman promised to be his wife, and all the preparations for were made July 19.—The | was | When to Advertise. | There’s nothing on earth so mys- | teriously funny a5 a newspaper ad- | vertisement.

Tragic Death of a Journalist. | Perhaps you have read Albert | Millaud’s account of the death of Camille Farey, a correspondent who accompanied the French expedition in Algiers. The commander was a martinet who hated newspapers and newspaper men. He compelled the correspondents to sign a document which made their mission fruitless. Farcy signed it under protest, and announced that he should elude the censorship, if possible, accepting the | penalty as a matter of course. A spy was set upon him. In less than a week a letter was intercepted. It contained criticisms on the general. A court martial was summoned. Farcy made nodefense. The verdict was brief: “Camille Farcy is condemned to be | shot at 6 in the morning.” He was taken to Tunis for exe- eution. The train arrived at 5:30. | A ball was in progress at the govy-| ernor general's house.

At 6 he bowed to the | guests. He was conducted to the guard. He refused to have his eyes bandaged, and demanded permission to give the word of command. | “May all journalists do as I have done,” said he, “it is their duty,” and folding his arms he cried: “Fire!” | Acrash of muskets and he was dead.
