MARIETTA REMY, beautiful girl,
who had led rather gay life, died
in Paris the other day. She was
known among her friends as Opal,
from the fact that she &l~ays wore a
very handsome opal necklace. This
neck lace was given to her by her
first lover, who, at the time, said {:
You know that opals are gems
which live. My fate is inseparabIe
from these When YOU see them
become doll and die, TOO shall be at
the point of DEATH One day they
thought they were weary of each
other and they separated. But after
he had gone, Marietta found that her
love for him was still ardent, and she
sought to recall him. 1t was too
late re had left the country. She
consoled herself, however, by look
lug at her necklace and saying,
''Tne opal still lives; | shall see
him again" But about a month
since the opals began to grow dull ;
then, one by one, they lost all their
lustre and became dead. A few days
ago, but one remained, and that gave
only faint reflection. "He is about
to die thought Mariette. She fell
into profound melancholy and said,
"Then |, TOO, must Gle" And when
one evening the last opal gave its
last CLEAN, she took poison and died.
The same day the telegram from
Luchon reached Paris Paul Bor-

Mariette's lover.

Railroad ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and
Large Crowd.

Railroad Barbecue-SpseCnsS anu
Large Crowd.
The Railroad barbecue at Canton
on last Wednesday was attended by
about 1900 people, little, big, old,
and young, male and female, and 1t
was about as lively day for Canton
as she has had in many day. All
the adjoining counties and towns
we're represented from Murphy, n
c., TO Atlanta, Ga. The business
houses of the town were all closed
and the citizens turned out en- mdSSe
to eat sheep meat, hear "chin music"
from distinguished speakers, and
"horn music" from the Canton band.
AT ten o'clock, the convicts at work
ON the Marietta and North Georgia
Railroad, laid down their tools, ads
iusted their ornamental bracelets
on their ankles and arms, strung
themselves on long chain, marched
into town and had their ''picturs
TUX"
The speaking commenced at !
o'clock. Hon. Thos. llardeman shot
off the first big gun" and the re
port of it will ring in that people 1
ears for many days to come. He
was followed by the eloquent United
States Senator, Gen. John b. Cor
don, who mingled in his speech pol
tiles, railroading, agriculture and
| finance. The Atlanta banker, Hon
John u. James, delivered a speech
followed by Col. A. A. Campbell OF
Murphy, n. c. Then Gen. Phillips
in his persuasive style talked to the
people and gathered in their sub.
scriptions. About 3 o'clock, the
barbecue dinner was announced
ready, and the crowd showed theiI
readiness to do it justice. The
meats were nicely barbecued anC
prepared in abundance. The goot
people of that section gave Literally
and made it a grand success.
The convicts we're Toasted and
went back to the stockade with theiI
arms full of victuals, Justify and JOY
ously singing. 1t was regular hol
iday picnic for them and they wer'
wishing the "fattcd calf was killed
olteAer.
Later in the evening Col Huber
told what he knew about "Narrov
gauge railroads in an able manner
1t was an orderly crowd, not
drunken man to be seen, and every
thing passed off pleasantly. Their
was plenty of the barbecue meat LEI
and Brewster's "big shoes" wer'
placed upon wagons and handily
converted into "wagon~beds," int
which whole shoulders of barbecuct
meat were deposited and hauled off
The last seen of our friend sharp, h'
was going towards Walesca with
