SAN DIEGO, Cal, Feb. 24.-Allan

and abdominal regions. He retired
early, and shortly afterwards the hotel
physician was summoned. At midnight
it was apparent that the end was near.
The doctor informed the wife of the
dying man that he could not survive
until morning. Mrs. Marvel carried
herself with composure, and did every
thing possible to console her husband in

Acting Very Nervously

| during the early portion of the morn
ing, throwing his hand back toward his
hip pocket. It is the custom of John
W. Mackey to come about noon time
every day to the jewelry store at the
corner of Sutter street and Lick alley to
compare the time of day, and he is al
ways very prompt. AS Mackey reached
the end Of the alley nearest Sutter street
and q few feet away from where the old
man was standing, the latter pulled out
his revolver and fired one shot. The
bullet struck Mackey in the middle of
the back. After firing the shot the
would-be murderer then supplemented
his crime by turning the pistol on him.
self and firing shot
Into His Own Body.
The self-inficted wound was serious,
but as long as he could walk he fol-
lowed Mackey up, trying to fire at him
again, but he was so weak that
he could not pull the trig-
ger. An immense crowd at
once assembled and the police soon ar
rived. A patrol wagon was called and
the wounded man was hurried to the
receiving hospital. There the doctors
found that the suicidal bullet had
penetrated above the heart and had
passed through the back, from under
the skin of which it was extracted. At
the time of the operation the man was
unconscious and pulseless, and the
wound was pronounced fatal. There
was little on the dying mans person to
indicate who he was. He had in his
pocket letter addressed to a morning
paper in which the writer stated he was
73 years Of age. 1t was signed w. G.
Rippey, and there was also upon him
an envelope bearing the name of DR.. L.
L. Lincoln. On the back of the envel-
ope there were the words: ''The end is
not yet" Upon sheet of paper under
the heading
"Food for reflection"
were the words: paid $3.50, 900 for one
sapphire to place on the forehead of his
wife-a sufficient amount to have saved
at least 500 of his victims from suicidal
graves. Just think of it. Inscribe it
upon his tomb"
When Mr.. Mackey was asked it he
knew the man who had shot him he
said: II never knew of a man named
Rippey. had good look at the old
man who shot me, and l am certain
do not know him. I cannot give any
reason for the assault"
AT a late hour Mr.. Mackey's condi-
tion is unchanged and his physicians
think he will recover. Rippey is still
alive but unconscious.
