The "paper, whicl: he called the Morning “News, did not go very well as tt did not have enough buyers in France. My father ,therefore, brought out a French edition of the paper which he called the Matin, which means morn ing. While the American edition soon ‘aie from lack of circulation, the French edition, perhaps owing kof ie originality, succeeded very well an * continued to do so. In fact the Matin te still one of the foremost papers in » France. © Now at that time the French were fighting the Tonkin war in China and were not getting much good out of it elther. As the public was getting reatless the government was suppress ing the bad news of the campaign. One day a clerk of the ministry of fwar, who no doubt thought that an American paper must poy better than “the others, slipped into the office and “told my father that he had some im- portent news to sell for which he wanted two hundred francs. . It appears that a company of “French “Infanterte de Marine” hat een surprised by the natives and practically wiped out. The Matin published the information, stating however, that although {t believed t!+ news was true it could not guaran tee it. ‘As the information did happen tc : cece tat ct NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT.
