SHOT WIFE AND HIMSELF.
The Woman May Recover but Daniel Mcleod
Is Dead.

MAIDEN, Mass, Aug. 26.-Daniel j. Nc
Leod, Melrose carpenter, attempted to
kill his divorced wife, Mary Mcleod, on
Washington street, yesterday afternoon,
and afterward shot himself through the
head, dying instantly. Although the
woman was badly injured, 1t was thought
that she will recover The shooting oc-
ourred in a narrow passageway between a
house and barn.
Mary Mcleod, who is employed as do
mestic by J. p. Sweet, obtained divorce
from her husband 211 years ago. Since
then Mcleod has frequently asked her to
live with him, once threatening to shoot
her If she refused.
Yesterday he met her on Washington
street and renewed his request. Mary re-
fused, and informed him that she did not
wish him to follow her around. Mcleod
became angry at her reply, and, drawing a
8S-caliber revolver, fired two shots at the
woman, who was close behind him.
Tho first one shattered her jaw, the
bullet passing through the roof OF her
mouth and out through the left cheek.
She ran away before the second was fired,
and it missed her. Mcleod theh placed
the weapon behind his right ear and fired.
The bullet passed through the brain, and
he died instantly.

A FRUiTLESS SEARCH.
Three Hundred Armed Men Secured Woods
For the Wild Man.

WEST WINsTED, Conn, Aug. 26.-The
hunt for the wild man in the wilds of
Colebrook yesterday was made by posse
of 300 armed men, but all their securing
was of no avail. The only trace of the
wild man to be seen were his footprints.
A hut was also discovered on the Boards
ley farm, half mile south of where the
wild man had frightened so many people.
A fireplace and bottle, quarter filled
with milk, were all there were TO be found
within the hut. Farmers think it Is one
OF his homes.
Some picnickers recently located small
cabin, and ran to town, saying they had
seen the wild mans cabin In the woods.
Investigation yesterday showed IL to be
the present quarters OF Mort Pond, a
hermit, who has lived in tho forest the
past 20 years.
Searching parties arc liable to start cut
any timc. The inhabitants of Colebrook
and other small hamlets north, as far as
Sandisfield, propose to organize among
themselves to hunt tho terror.

BRIDE OF TWO WEEKS

She Had CLING to Him as Her

Story Of a Couple Who Took Their Own Lives
by Use OF Choral. -

BOSTON, Aag 26.-The bodies OF Louis
Hammond Of New York and his wife, who
committed suicide by taking chloral at
the American House, are at the morgue.
The bodies will be kept there two or three
days, and unless friends claim, they will
be buried by the city.
A dispatch from New York says the rea-
son why Hammond and his bride OF two
weeks concluded To end their lives Is
made reasonably clear by the S, Jry told
by Mr.. Hammond's former partner, lrv-
Ing Bttner, and by Mrs. John ODoDncll.
the wife OF an engineer, residing on East
Eighty-ninth street, that city.
Mrs. O'Donnell and her daughter Lii
Ian seem To have been the only intimate
friends Kathryn Hammond had. Mr..
B'ttner Is i'm the perfumery business In
this city. He gave the following account
OF his business relations with Hammond:
"We were together In business about
seven months Hammond was peculiar
fellow and would seldom talk about his
affairs. All l know is that he told that
he came from Des Moines, and that his
father and mother were dead.
Took Partners Money.
Saturday, July 27, bought Hammond
out. We dissolved partnership, and on
the following Monday l discovered that
on the Friday previous no had drawn
from the bank a considerable sum OF
money belonging to the firm. I will not
name the bank or the amount. / took no
legal steps against him. Maybe should
have done so II / could have found him.
In all probability it was fear Of this that
Grove him to suicide. 1 can't see, how
ever, how he could have become so quickly
bankrupt, unless he speculated."
Mrs. O'Donnell and Miss O'Donnell ex-
planned Mrs Hammond's antecedents as
follows: Mrs Hammond's mother, who
Is trained nurse by profession, Is
widow. Kathryn was for six years with
Mrs. Osborne, who lives In Belleville,
Newark. She was for time seamstress
In Newark, living with her sister. Then
she studied stenography at the Orange
institute. In April last she came to live
with Mrs. O'Donnell, who had just
moved to this city.

"she got place, but she lost 1t when win

and asked for shelter, because she did not
Want to burden us any longer. Her
mother, she informed us, told her that she
had no room for her. She came back and
said: "They are lost to me forever. Never
Let them know what happened to me. If

He was then given the drum, which he carried until discharged, June 22, at Raleigh. After the war he was not allowed to join the ranks as private, and he therefore be- came bugler. In this capacity he served in every branch of the service, infantry, artillery, and cavalry.
 On January 5, 1887, he was made an exception of and allowed to become second-class private, notwithstanding his small stature. His thirty years ser vice would have been up in 1894 had he not received his discharge March IS, 1891, to go to the regular army home at Washington. According to the twenty years service act he might have stay ed there the remainder of his life, as he had been in the army twenty-six years and {, eleven and two-thirds months, but would draw no pension on account of not being disabled. After staying there nine months he longed for active service, and then fbecame first class private of ordnance with rank of sergeant, at Fortress Monroe arsenal. Shortly before he left he was recom- mended for corporal. The six stripes on his sleeve represent his thirty years in the regular army, not including his first service.
 At the time of the Custer massacre Mailer was at Key West, and at his fifth enlistment he joined the Custer Revengers." c troop, Seventh Cavalry, and he saw service in the Black Hills.

VALUED ENDORSEMENT.

| SCHAdHTICoKR, N Y. - It Is ignorance rather than anything else that makes life miserable but ignorance of the value of Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy does not exist in Schaghtlcol1e to-day; as blood l medicine and nerve tonic it stands supreme. One of the principal reasons for it's popular ity comes from the great benefit our fellow townsman, Andrew sipperley derived from its use. MT. sipperley has suffered for years past with chronic kidney trouble, frequent bilious attacks, and at intervals with violent neuralgia in the head and face. Up to last fall he rarely knew well day. At that time his wife, who had learned of the good Dr. Kennedys Favorite Remedy had accom- plished, determined to have him use it. In writing about his sickness, MT. Sipperley said:
 For several years was subject to attacks of kidney trouble and gravel, which was att tended with most excruciating pain, but since began the use of Dr. David kennedy's Bavorite Remedy have had no serious trou- ble, and my genera health is greatly lm- proved. l know of great many people about here who nave used Eavoltte Remedy, and in every instance benefit has followed. One of the officers of the Albany, N. ' ., Hos- pital recently said, in speaking ot Havorite Remedy 1T know of it's great medical value, and to my knowledge it cures the diseases for which 1t is prepared"
 The great valie of Dr. David Kennedy's Fayorite Remedy lies in the fact that 1t dis solves the excess of uric acid in the blood. Such ailments as rh eumatsm, neuralgia, ner- vousness, dyspepsia, kidney, liver and url- nary troubles, and the sickness peculiar to women, all come from this one cause. Fa- vorite Remedy dissolves this acid and expels it from the system, thus curing the disease. In cases of scrofula, diabetes and BrighCs disease, it has cured where other treatments have failed.
