ROMANCE OF a DEAD GAMBLER.-Abou!
thirteen years ago Hal Clayton, one of the
best known gamblers Oh the coast. died at
Carson, New, of fever. He was rich ana
his rSmaios were placed IN costly metallc
casket with a glass case and consigned TO
handsome tomb. His wife, who was frantic
with grief, placed her diamonds on bis shirt
front. The stones were valued at S0OO. Fear
ful lest toe gems would be taken from the
vault, she placed watch at the tomb, and
il was maintained for many weeks. A lew
DAYS ago George Dobbs, who has the care
of the cemetery, secured the keys OF the
vault, and took look at the remains ne
was astonished to find that Ciayton,S oearo

wandering life that he refused to marry her.

1888 ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE. 1888

The GAZETTE, chronologically, is in the
| eighty-ninth year of its existence and is not
only the Oldest paper in the State, but, with
very few exceptions, in the country. Not
withstandipg the fullness of its years, it has
kept, and will continue to keep abreast of the
times in all that pertains to neWs paper,
furnishing its readers daily with perfect
mirror of passing events, domestic and for
eign. Its facilities for obtaining news as
they increase are taken advantage of and
used for the benefit of it's readers, who are
thus kept thoroughly posted as to all that is
of interest politically, socially, financially
and commercially. Special attention is
given to matters concerning the State and
its welfare, while its local columns contain
all that is of the slightest interest to Alex
andria. It's regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are features of
peculiar interest, as attested By the eager
ness with which they are read and copied
by other papers, while its editorial depart
ment, conducted with reference to.the best
interests of the city, State and country, will
continue to advocate what is believed to be
right, just. honest and patriotic. With a
view to the interests of merchants, farm.
ers, and all interested, its commercial col
umns arc carefully edited and its market
reports are acknowledged by all to be faith
ful and accurate. Through all this section
of the State and in ell parts of the country
where Virginians have located, there will
the GAZETTE generally be found, and thus
as an advertising medium it has few equals
outside the large cities. In the household,
counting room and Workshop, 1t is an ever
welcome visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the gay.

ParalYzed by Fright.

Colonel W. X. Slnedberg was first
under fire at Gaines Mills, and served
until he lost his leg at the Wilder
ness He never went into Il battle with
out feeling a sense of fear.
Ibid you ever see a man completely
naralyzed by fright?'
YES; knew IA young man who was
50 tel.ror-stricken that he could do MOTH
ing but cry. ] knew an officer of the
regular army who could not stand the
ordeal OF battle. and | call him a
brave man for this reason. In the first
battle he did not behave as a good sol
der. He was dismissed from the SER
vice, but made up his mind that he
would conquer his fear and redeem him
self from the stigma of cowardice. He
was given chance to enter the service
again with the rank of Lieutenant, al
though he had held aCaptain's commits
sion at the time of going into the battle
first. In the second engagement he
nerved himself to the task of going in,
but the strain was too heavy for him,
and he broke down again in the pres
ence OF his fellow-efiicers. After this
he retired from the service, confessing
that he could not stand fire. He was n
brave man because he tried in the face
Of death second time to overcome his
weakness. - Chicago Aeus.
