CONSUMPTION,

IN its first stages, can Ibe successfully

periods of that disease, the cough is
wonderfully relieved by this medicine.

see her father she had two children,
twins, about four years old.
''Then the news came that the Canadian
Indians were on the war-path and kill
ing the frontier settlers, and we had
barely time TO get ready when a band Of
them struck Deerield. Well, we man
aged TO repulse them but they killed
Old Red Blanket and carried off his
family, and although we pursued them
and rescued the daughter, the children
were never heard of again. And now /
remember her just as she looked then.
How beautiful she was, with her tall,
straight figure and long black hair, and
dark eyes that were full of despair and
agony"
And yet this poor woman could not
have resembled her." said Marden,
''for the reason that one belonged to
the native race and the other to ours.
But who is the third?"
THAT explains it air. exclaimed
Jabe, with the air of one who
has solved a difficult problem.
''See, Captain, what a wonderful
thing the human mind isl Their mis-
fortune brought them together in my
thought, and caused me to recall the
woman / had forgotten and place her
beside the one | never saw, while the
one / told you l was hunting my
memory for comes out of the fog, melts
again into the chiefs daughter, and
stands beside Ariel like a picture of
himself"
Ariel" exclaimed Marden, ''do you
mean to say that the chiefs daughter
is"
81 don't know what she is to him,
Captain, but they are like as mother
and SON"
So saying, Jabe wrapped his blanket
around him and fell asleep as soon as
his head touched the earth.
AS the rangers approached the point
designated in MERGERS order, their
progress became slower and dangers ac-
cumulated. Montcalm was cutting a
road through the forest to facilitate the
march of his troops to Oswego, and the
laborers were protected by numerous
parties of regulars and militia, while
bands of Indians roamed the woods as
scouts and purveyors of game; for the
commissariat department of the French
army was often scanty enough, for the
reason that the male population of Can
ada was taken from the pillow to I'LL up
regiments decimated by disease and war.
Having gained all the information
possible, Marden decided to return,
and having made an agreement with
Jabe that if one was killed or
captured the other should make his
way back TO the fort. they SET
out to retrace their steps. The spring
was advancing rapidly, and while the
unfolding leaves made concealment less
difficult, it also increased the danger OF
falling into ambuscades, and thus it hap
pened, that on the morning of the
second day of the homeward journey,
Marden, on awaking from sound
sleep, sprang to his feet to hear the
challenge of French sentinel, whose
bayonet was but few inches from his
breast. Defenseless and taken by sur
prise, he was obliged to surrender, con-
selling himself, however, that Jabe was
still at liberty.

approached his master, took his hand
and pressed it to his lips, then with 3
sign of farewell to the ranger, disap-
peared in the depths of the forest
Jabe looked after him regretfully.
"He's the first redskin that l would
trust further than / can see," be re-
marked, land he is clear grit and true
blue"

In the familiar song "Pull for the
Shore" there is line, ''Cling to self no
MORE" which. as sung by the colored
children in the schools, sounded strange
ly, and on having it said slowly it was
discovered that they were singing,
"Clean Yourself no more"

A TRAGEDY IN GEORGIA.
Mr.. De Forest AlIgoOd Killed by DIR.
j. Ii. -. Holmes at Rome, Ga.

Mr. he fOrPSt AuSOON killCN Dy Dr.
J. Ii. =. Holmes at Rome, Ga.
De Forest Ailgoo !, president of Iron Fac
tory, one of the wealtheSt institution of
North Georgia, was shot an instantly killed
at o'c.t OK the other ev n ing by DR. j. b. s.
Holmes, his brother in law, and one of tIe
most prominent and popular OF Georgia ply
sicians. Mr. AlIsood had long cherished i'll
will towards Dr. Holmes for some business
matters between them and had frequently
threatened his life. DR.. Holnies had a voided
Mr.. AlIgood for Years and went oue OF town
to avoid meeting him to day.
MIR. Aligood came down from Trion Fac
tory to II )mo on an evening tram and waited
for Dr. Holmes in his oilics door. DR.. Homes,
who had vague warning, sought to reach
his otiics by the back streets.
When the party drew up in front Of the
nflice Mr.. Allgood advanced with dra WI pis-
tol on Dr. Homes. Tne lattsr shot Mr.. ALI
( lood twice with his double barreled shotgun,
lolded with tird shot, both shots taking ef-
feet tn first cutting the carotid artery and
the ju ular vein, and the second breaking the
neck completely.
Mr. All sCoi fell at the first shot, then half
rose, still trying to draw his pistol. When he
rece.vei the second shot he iell on his racs
ami III tantly expired.
DIR. Holmes exclaimed: IL was forced to do
il save my own life. l am sorry SO sorry,
but h, hunted me down, and for the sake OF
my wife and my son had 10 kin him." d :.
aud is resting III his own apartments In
charge of II deputy sheriff.
The general sentiment agrees that the kill
ing was clcar.y in sslf.defcnce, and although
both men were exc teding'y popular, the cur
! rent OF sympathy is stron ;ly with DR.. Holmes.
