During Deeds of "Lonesome Charley"
]i'\i/noldst Who Perished With his
General?His Romantic History.
I sec in the list of the killed under
Custer, says n.Grajdiic correspondent,
the name of Charley Reynolds?
"IxmesomeCharley" Reynolds. When
Custer was at the base of Hartley's
peak iu 1874 and our camp was
ablaze with excitement over tho gold
discoveries, Custer sent for Bloody
Knife, the chief of his scouts, and
asked for an Indian to carry dis
patches to bort Lnmarie, two hund
red tidies below us. Bloody Knife
shook his head solemnly and said in
reply :
"My warriors arc brave, but they
are wise. Thay will carry a hag of
letters to Fort Line? I it, hut X cannot
ask them to go thiongh the Sioux
counuy t? Kurt I^ararnie.

with !Utt-fc.lt{ ttj?rxi dangers. It led

which the Sioux has a hereditary
enmity for, and he was too wise to
ask one of them to undertake a sui
cidal a pritjcs-t. But mails must be
sent samehow, and Caster was ponder
ing what to do. Charley Reynolds
was sitting on the ground, with his
logs cmsscd, cleaning a revolver,
seemingly Fitaiteiitive to the conversa
tion, Custer had Insen thinking hut a
moment, when Reynolds looked up
nnd said:
"I'll carry the mails to Laramio,
General."
Custer was familiar with courage
iu every form, but such a proposition
surprised even 1dm.
"I wouldn't ask yon to go, Rey
nolds," he said.
"I have no fear," responded the
scout quietly. "When will you have
the mail ready ?"
"I was intending to semi something
to-morrow night," replied Custer.
"I'll go to-morrow night." And
picking up his piece of buckskin and
bottle of oil, Reynolds strode quietly
away.
"There goe3 a man," said Custer,
"who is a constant succession of sur
prise to me. I am getting so that I
feel a humiliation in his presence.
Scarcely a day passes?-and I have
known him ? three years?.that docs
not dovclope some now nnd strong
trait in his charaotcr. I would as
soon havo asked my brother Tom to
carry a mail to Laramic as Reynolds.''
The next day I saw Reynolds lead
an old, ill-shaped, dim colored horse
to the farrier's. I was somewhat cur
ious to know if ho was going to rido
that animal to Laramio, and asked
him.
"Yos," said he, in his quiot way.
"The General lota mo pick my own
mount, and I'vo got one that suits
mo.
Noticing my surprise at his ohoico,
he continued :
"I suppose I could have picked out
a better looking one, but this is the
sort for my trip." And scanning the
the benst over, he added ; "He knows
inoro tlmn n man, if ho h bony. Look
in his eye," ,
.The farrier took ine horses shoes
On mffl pared his hoOra neatly. Rcy
nolds llinll irent to (ho, saddler and
had a set of lcathci' allocs made, to
fit the horse's feet, so as to buckle
arouud the fetlocks.
?'What arc those for?" I asked.
"A little dodge of mine tfl'fool the
Indians. They make no trail.
Then he packed three or four days
rations in a saddle pocket, prepared a
supply of aminu lition, and cleaned
up a long, old fashiqned rifle. Then
aller eating a hearty dinner, he lay
down under a wagon for a nap.
-About fouro'elock that evening an
engineering party started off in tho
direction Reynolds was to take, and
saddling his horse and strapping on
a canvass bag of letters, he ac
companied us. Wo rode till about
ten o'clock, nnd went into camp iu a
cluster of trees near a brook. A fire
was lighted, a pot of codec made, and
after drinking a cupful, Reynolds
mounted his saddle, and rode into the
dark.
His path lay through a trackless
wilderness?two hundred miles of it
?the constant haunts of hostile
Indians, and not n foot of the ground
had Reynolds ever seen before. He
had never been at baramic; he only
knew the general direction in which
it lay, and his only guideboard was
the stars. After four nights of riding
and three days of sleeping, he reach
cd his destination unharmed. I saw
hint afterward at Fort Lincoln on our
return. He told me he got through
nictly and inuiled the letters I had
intrusted to his care.
I had been told that under his
gentle demeanor lay a romance as re
markable as any Cooper ever wrote,
and one day I asked him to tell nie,
the story of his life. II?! blushed a
little, laughed quietly, and replied he
didn't think it worth while.
"'Hut they tell me you have had a
remarkable experience," I suggested.
"Not so very remark able," he
answered. ""I guess you can find
enough to fill your paper w*',hout
publishing anything about nte."
And that was all the romance I
got from his lips. Rut from the lips
of others I learned that he had not
always been ''Lonesome Charley"
Reynolds. No one, however knew
his true name. He was called "Lone
some" because of an absent pensive
way he had?a habit of scelustvcncss.
He came to Lincoln from Montana
three years before, With his partner,
where the two had bceu hunting and
trapping together for several years.
Tim story of hia life that his partner
told was this:
Reynolds was the son of a wealthy
and aristocratic family iu Tennessee,
hut was educated iu the North, and
when the war broke out he found
himself iu a painful dilemma. lie
had imbibed enough of Northern
ideas to make him strongly hostile to
the secession movement, while his
family?consisting of a father, mother
and sister?were violent sympathizers
with the South. His fathor entered
the Confederate army asanolliccr
early in the war. The son could not
go with him and fight against his
principles, nor could he stay at home
and brook tho taunts and pleadings
of his mother and sister, nor could he
join tho Federal army and light
agaiiiKl his father; so ho left his homo
nnd wandered away on the Pacific
slopo. His homo was at the centre of
hostilities, and all communication
was cut ofl. At the closo of the war
ho went back to Tennessee, and what
was once his home was desolation.
The neighbors told hint his fathor had
been killed iu ono ofthooarly battles,
his mother had died, and his sister
had married a Southern ollicor whoso
name was not rcmcmborcd, and all
trace of her had been lost. Tho old
plantation bad been confiscated, and
there was not a single tie left to bind
him to the past. Ho spent some
months in search of his stater, without
result, and homelessnoss and a disposi
tion which shrunk from fellowship
with men, drove him back to his old
home iu tho mountains, to spend the
? rest, of ? yreary life; From 1805 to
11872 ho wfln in the" mines in Colorado*
and Montana, rind hunting and trap
ping along tho Btreams of the grodt
Northwest,;being employed occasion
ally by tho government to do sonio
work for Which Ordinary nien were
loo cownrdiy or Incompetent.
Ho was n short, stocky man, with
a little stooping of the shoulders, riiid
had a way of carrying his headbctit
forward with his face toward the
ground. Ho had a shrinking blue
eye, a very handsome mouth, and a
forehead on which one could trace
blue veins, hs you can trace them on
the forehead of a woman. He was
full bearded, but neither the growth
of hair not tho nuirks of exposure
hud effaced the 'Ines of beauty from
his face. His manner was linobusivc
and gentle, his voice was as soft and
tender as a; woman's tones. IIo was
a man that horses and dogs loved
instinctively at first acquaintance;
whom men respected,although he was
never fathonjed by the wisest of his
friends. Ho had fought awhohl tribe
of Indians single handed, people said,
although no one ever learned of an
exploit from his own lips, lie never
learned the necessity of swearing,
never told a story, never smoked a
pipe or cigar before a camp fire, and
never drank liquor.
JjOVK, A LlKENKSS AND LiAHCKNY.
?A strango lawsuit is pending in
Atlanta. A young iuau, becoming
enamored of a buxom widow, offered
his hand and heart, and was accepted.
Pluiiagraphs were exchanged, and the
coiirse of true love ran smoothly for
several months. But another char
mer appeared on the eccne. The
young man's j love for the widow ran
itself out in Kohlen sands until none

f Iis jiftectiolvrwcro lfaWfcrfdd foT-hc '
rival Venus, and he determined to
give her a photograph. Hut times
were hard, money was scarce and the
photographer inexorable in his de
mands for cash. In this emergency
a liappv thought struck him. He
visited the widow, and, during her
temporary abscencc from the parlor,
abstracted his photograph, which iu
due time he presented to her rival
The bereft fair one discovered her loss;
rage supplanted love; sho pined for
revenge, and obtained it by indicting
the faithless lover for larceny. The
case was tried. The widow, in her
testimony, alluded to the photograph
as "his photograph." This was the
straw to which defendant's counsel
cluug. It beiug "his photograph," he
could not ho charged with larccuy for
taking his own. A learned discussion
on grammar ensued. The erudite
justice decided that in this connection
the word "his" was objective, not sub
jective?was equivalent merely to tho
phrase "of him"?and did not imply
possession. The accused was bound
over for trial iu a higher court.

Why He Took It Down.?Wo
heard a rcminisconco the other day
worth repeating. In the camp of one
of our lUiodo Island regiments, dur
ing the rebellion, tho tent of tho chap
Iain was near the regimental post
oflice, and the good man Wits frequent
ly disturbed by soldiers thrusting
their beads in and inquiring if tho
mail had arrived. To rid himself of
this anuoyanco he ono day put up a
large placatd bearing tho legend:
"Tho chaplain doC3 not know whether
tho mail has arrived or not." On
glancing nt the announcement the
next morn'ng imagine tho chaplain's
surprise on reading this addition to it,
evidently made by so me disappointed
seeker aftor lotters from homo?"and

the placard.?Providence Sun.

A littlo four-year old -remarked to
her mamma on going to bed : "I
am not afraid of tho dark,1' "No, of
course you aro not," replied her
mamma, "for itcan't' hyrtyon." "Hut,
mamma, I was a littlo afraid once
when I wont into tho pantry to get a
cooky " "What was you afraid of?"
asked her mamma. ' I was afraid I
couldn't find the cookies."
Disease from Soap.
Soap* is so universally usel at the
prescht day that it seems almost im
possible to do without it. It may ap
pear surprising to learn that soap is
not an unmixed good, nud that some
of1 tho worst diseases have originated
iri; Or at least been carried about by,
the too frequent lisc of some kinds of
the article. Manufacturers care but
little what ingredients they employ so
long as the article they bring forth
has the piopcr amount of perfume or
the requisite capability of producing
suds with little rubbing. In this man
ner a vast amount of diseased animal
matter, taken from beasts which havo
died of putresccnt maladies, is em
ployed.
Soap fat is well known in the manu
facture of the soap, and owing to its
condition and the imperfect way in
which it is refined, \i sometimes con
tains most deadly poisons, which, by
friction upon the skin, are introduced
into the pores, gradually soak into the
blood and develop into some local'
affection for which no cause can bo
assigned. Typhoid fever has been
often produced in this manner, it is
ascertained positively, but the most
common form in which this soap poi
son has made itself felt is in the pro
duction of diphtheria. It has hither
to been an inexplicable fact that
while doctors have been urging great
cleanliness to avoid this disease, it is
precisely where this has been most
shown that the discaso has made most
ravages. Hoards of health have beeu
constant in their efforts to prevent
diphtheria by urging clcauliuess, with
a result, that is already known by the
constant increase of death.
It has also been found that a large,
proportion of the soaps now used arc
made from putrid ami filthy grease
obtained "?' from tenement houses, jails,'
hospitals and public institutions, and
which no possible process cau remove
of their impurities and render fit for
human use. The medical faculty of
Paris and Lend, u havo altcady
sounded the keynote of warning in
this matter. Alarmed at the increase
of disease transmitted from iiupurq
soaps, they havo impressed on the
people tho necessity of only using
soaps of tested purity. The anuual
mortality ofchildren, which is now so
great, is also attributed in large part
to this indiscriminate use of soap. The
sensitive and tender skins of the little
ones more readily absorb the poisoa
and disease transmitted by the soaps
referred to. Wise legislation is need
ed on this matter.
What They Weau.?Tho editor
of the Austin (Nov.) Reveille is greatly
admired throughout his State for his
modesty and innocence. Some idea
of his sweetness of character may bo
gathered from the following item
written by him as a matter of duty :
We arc reliably informed that near
ly all tho ladies of Austin now wear
Centennial petticoats. Never having
seen a Centennial petticoat, nor any
other kind of a petticoat, we are uu
able to furnish a description of the
article. If wc arc not mistaken,
though, tho Centennial petticoat is
made of red, white and blue si! k, and
trimmed with American eagles, littlo
hatchets and stars, and is different in
shape from the bonnets of last spring's
style.
The last words of Charlotte Cush
mau arc more authentic, but less he
roic than last words usually arc. Her
nephew had raised her and offered a
stimulating drink, with tho words,
"Come, aunte, here is your milk
punch."* Sim smiled, and quoted the
first line of the celebrated street car
jingle, "Punch, brothers, punch with
care." Then sho fell iuto a deep sleep,
from which she never awoke.
Aif old lady, on hearing that a
young friend had lost his [dace on
account of misdemeanor, exclaimed :
"Miss Demeanor?" Lost his place
on account of Miss Demeanor or ?
Well, well ! I'm a feared it's too true
that there's nil us a woman at the
bottom a man's difficulties !"
A Color kd DI an Lynctikd;?St.
Lours, Mo., July 31.?The Ohle
Democrat'* Leaven worth specinl mjB:
"Raphael "Williams, a colored man,
ravished a white woman named Mrs|.
Davis, at her house, at Camdon
Poiut, Mo., last Thursday night. Ho
was arrested the next day, and lodg
ed in jail in Platte City. This morn
ing, about 120 armed men entered
Platte City and posted pickets around
the jail, to prevent interference by^
the citizens, while five members of
the party roused the Sheriff, whonj.
they seized and forced to deliver the
keys of the cells. A deputy sheriff
unlocked the door of William's coll,
a rope was placed around his neck,
and he was dragged to a tree near
tho depot, where he was hanged, after
which the mob quietly dispersed."
When the body was cut down this
morning by the coroner* a placard was
found pinned to it, stating that,owing
to the incflicicucy of tho laws of
Missouri, providing for tho punish
ment of such malefactors, tho "aven
gers," who number among them some
the oldest and most respectable citi
zens of Plaits county, had deemed it
advisable to tako tho law into their
own hands, and administer the justice.
tho case so richly deserved. Mrs. *
Davis was ill at the timo of the out-1
rage, and now lies at tho poiut of
death.
Human nature is indeed a curious;
study. A boy may sing "Hold tho j
fort" so sweetly on Sunday that'tho
very walls of Ziou tingle with the sac
red melody, and yot j >u wouldn't rc- .
cognize him on week Jays when ho
come* out from "awinming and finds
that some other boy ^has hopolessly
knotted up his shirtsleeves aud trous
cr legs.
A few weeks since a Chicagodruin-%
tiicr saw a young lady plowing a ,?
iu Macoupin, 111. dit, ifcijj/ped to ask :
"When do yojj begin cradling?"
"Not until the heads arc better filled
than yours," was the sententious re
ply. The young man passed musing
ly on.
