HE WENT BELOW,


Where enter saint and sinner;
be smiled cheerful, happy smile,
For he'd Just come from dinner.
Moreover, twas dinner fit
For gods, and cen Ward Mac
On such feast as Pete mad had
Would scarce have turned his back.
Safe Peter, then, in cheerful mood,
Hard by the pearly gate,
Aud passed within, with scarce glance,
Each anxious candidate.
A bright, bright day it was for them,
Those spirits who had meier,
For fear of Peters catechism,
Tried them to enter there.
For each and every one he had
smile, pleasant word;
A day like this, on Peters part,
Had ne'er before occurred.
And pleased were they, these spirits glad,
Each paipitating sinner
To think that they. mayhap, some time
Might eat as good dinner
AS Peter just had risen from;
And now, ass1milating,
Sat smiling DER and holding back
Thu celestial, pearly grating.
Within they passed, both rich and poor,
Beggar and Prince and Lord,
And Peter, smiling, let them in,
And questioned not word.
Swift by they walked, this eager throng
And there, within the portals,
Came many spooks who once had been
Quite wicked, naughty mortals.
At last Saint Peter cast his eve
On one who onward pressed
a holy-ooking man, who seemed
Much better than the rest.
" Ho! Stay thy feet my seemly friend.
L would word with thee;
Come, sit beside and answer. please,
Some questions small, for me-"
The stranger paused, and turned to him
A calm, religious face,
And bowed with dignity as he
By Peter took a place.
" And thou, what vert thou" questioned
Pete,
" Neither good saint; on earth, know thou,
was an undertaken"
." Aha" quoth Peter: 81 dare say
You righteous are-and tears
Came at thy bidding, to be shed
Ger other mortals' biers?
" You mourned with them who mourned, no
doubt?
You sorrowed with the sorrowing.
And troubled much with those folks who
Trouble are always borrowingr
The spirit bowed and Peter then
Would fain have passed him in,
This goodly spirit, who, it seemed,
Had very righteous been.
But stay ~ cried Peter, suddenly.
81 know what sad task it
Is to be an undertaken
But-did you white casket
" Exhibit in your window. where
All men who passed must see
The grewsome thing. Dids't thou my friend?
prythee, answer me.
90 You did? Alas it saddens me;
But rules are rules, you know;
Though some sins are forgivable
For this-you go below.
Ho, Mr.. Devil! Here is one
A hardened man and tough,
For whom your direst punishment
Could not be hall enough.
{" Give him the hottest, driest place
That ever you can find,
Where water never is, and heat
Is hottest of its kind.
" Go get a casket, snowy white,
And make him sleep within it,
And place it where, in waking hours
He'll see it every minute"

in the back. When Mackay turned to
face his assallant, the latter turned the
pistol toward himself and shot, wound
ing himself, and, it is thought, fatally.
Mr.. Mackay came from the Cali
fornia gold mines on the western
slope OF the Sierra Nevada in
1859. and engaged in the development
of new mining discovery. He owned
most of the location known as the Cali
fornia ground at the time of the CONSOLE
dation, hence his more extensive inter
est, and his actual realization therefrom
may be placed at $45 ZOO, 900.
The famous bonanza firm" Mackay,
Fair, Flood & O'Brien, realizing their
immense fortunes from the sensational
ly rich bonanza developed and princ-
pally controlled by them in the Consoli-
dated Virginia & California mines, on
the northern section of the Comstock.
The firm dissolved years ago, but be-
fore they did SO had divided $64, OOO, 900
among themselves, exclusive of what
went to the many hundreds of outsiders
who were invested with them.
Their ownership was proportion
ately as follows: Mackay, two
fifths, and the others one
fifth each; therefore the dividends
took that shape. O'Brien and Flood
were removed by death. Fair sold out
and removed permanently to Cal1for-
MIA, Mackav alone holding tie proper
ty.
Mackay's assailant was man aged
about go years. and is named Radcliffe.
Beyond that his identity is not known,
or his motive. He fired one shot
at Mackay, the bullet entering
his back, and then at once shot himself
over the heart and died within five
minutes. Mr.. Mackay was at once
placed in a carriage and was driven
away. It is not believed that Mr..
Mackay's wound is fatal.
Mr.. Mackay began life poor boy. a
story was once printed that Mrs.
Mackay had been a laundress in
the California mines in early
days, but it was contradicted.
Mackay was fortunate in every
mining venture he engaged in. He
quickly acquired a fortune that was
doubled and redoubled until his wealth
now amounts to over $50, 100000.
Mrs. Mackay has long resided abroad,
and her husband has spent a great deal
of his time in Europe during the past
few years.
