A CENTENARIAN GoNE.--We did not
learn until few days ago Of the death Of Jacob
Deboj, a resident Of Barr township, near ST.
Nicholas, who was perhaps the oldest man in the
county, and whose funeral took place on the 18th
of December. He was a Frencbmsn by birth,
and az near as we can learn came 10 this county
about forty years ago. lie claimed that be was
lOs years old just previous to his death. llo was
unquestionsbly soldier under Napoleon Bona
parte in his hrst memorable campaign In Italy
when that greatest Of all modern generals was
only 20 years Of age. Napoleon began his march
into Italy in April, 1890, almost seventy. .eght
years ago, and Deboj served as a conscript under
him aud was doubtless present at the battles OF
Monteuotte and Modovi and at "thc terrible pas
sage Of tho Bridge Of Lodi Al that time he
must have been between the ages Of 20 and 20,
and at the time Of his death was nj least 100, or
Il may be, MS he always claimed, fully los. lie
had no children, but his second wife survives
him. We never cav him In our town, nor do we
know one Of our citizen who ever did, so closely
did he content himself al his home. lie enjoyed
uniform good health and was accustomed every
Sunday TO walk TO the Catholic church at 81.
Nicholas, q distance OF almost mile. lie has
passed away far from his native land and farther
still from tho stirring and cveutfal scenes Of his
early manhood. Peace to his ashes. --cdmbria

RATHER DIcTAToRIAL "A second
handed "iron bridge" editorial appeared in last
weeks Rereiiis, which we arc compsllcd to notice.
The attack made upon Judge Thompson, one Of
the County Commissioners, was untrue and unjust,
and looks more like "spitc work" than the expires
sion Of proper manly views upon question Of
public policy. In fact tho whole article Is spiced
with spleen snd personal malice, bctraying too
much pccunary interest on the part Of the writer
