IN NEWSPAPER WORLD HERE
MRS. JEROME D. MALEY GETS A
MESSAGE SAYING HER FATHER
DIED TODAY AT HIS HOME IN
ITALY.

A cablegram was received this
morning by Mrs. j. d. Maley convey
ing to her the sad news of the death,
earlier in the day. of her father, Col.
Charles Henry Jones, at Ospedaletti,
Italy. His wife was with him at
the time.
Col. Jones was widely known
throughout this country through his
connection with the newspaper world
and the news of his death will be
received with general regret.
Col. Jones was born at Tolburton,
Ga, in 1S49 and served with dis
tinction in the southern army during
the Civil war, at the close of which
he went to New York and engaged
in literary work, being for many
years editor of the Electric maga-
zine, published by Appleton & Com
pany. Later he was editor-in-chief
for the Henry Holt company. He
has given to the public several works
from his own pen, chiefly
biographies.
In 1881 Col. Jones came to Jack
sonville and started the Times,
later buying the Union and Gansol-
idating the two papers. He sold the
Times Union in 1889 and removed to
st. Louis, where he bought and
edited the ST. Louis Republic until he
had placed it on a splendid basis,

Post Dispatch. From ST. Louis he
went to New York and for two years
he was editor-in-chief of the New
York World. In addition to his
salary he was to receive a percent
age on the increased business and
this arrangement led to difficulty
with Mr.. Pulitzer and retirement
from the paper. In the litigation
which followed the courts decided in
Tol. Jones' favor, and he was
granted his salary for the full ten
years engagement.
Col. Jones retired from active
newspaper work 10 years ago, but
bought several leading journals in
New York. His health broke down
about ten years ago and he went to
Europe and has lived abroad for the
past seven years. Last year he
bought a beautifully situated chateau
in quaint old Brittany and expected
to enjoy the quiet life of a country
gentleman.
In the fall Col. Jones came to
New York to look after his business
interests and was not well when he
