Springs where spent three months under
the treatment of the most eminent special
lists, all of which did me no good, and
came back from the springs in q worse
condition than when went. came home
and laid fiat on my back and suffered
the most excruciating agonies, screaming in
pain every time anybody walked across the
rooIl, the only ease I obtained being from
the coA;tant use of opiates. After three
months of this kind of agony, durin,
which time my entire left leg persisted away
to the very bone. my attention was called to

Pills for Pale People, by Mr.. Allison who is
now train dispatcher at Texarkana, and
who was relieved of locomotor ataxia Of
twenty years duration. At his urgent and
repeated solicitation I consented to give
them a trial, after taking a few doses
began to improve. I continued taking the
pills and kept right on improving until
was finally cured. My leg is just the same

that Pink Pills not only cured me but saved

breviated names of Fred and Wash, were
Mr.. Nathan's only children. He had been
widower for some years and was very
wealthy man.
Mr.. Nathan had q beautiful summer
place at Morristown, n. j., where he spent
most Of his time, his sons making their
headquarters in the splendid city mansion,
12 West Twenty third street, across the
way from the Fifth Avenue hotel. Mr..
Nathan still took an interest in his large
business affairs, and for this purpose it
was his habit to come into the city once
week in the summer time. Usually he re-
turned to MOrristown the same day, but
about once a month he remained over
night Mt his city residence, which was left
at all times in the charge of Mrs Kelly,
his housckccper.
When Mr.. Nathan met his son Fred at
the Wall street Office on the afternoon Of
July 90, he told him that he would remain
1T their home In the city that night. The
young man did not need to be told the
reason for this. Although Benjamin
Nathan's mother had been dead for 40
years, it had been his custom during all
this time to spend the anniversary Of her
death, July 80, in fasting at home and in
prayer at tho synagogue.
Mr.. Nathan was u very quiet man, tax
ing but few people into his confidence, but
oven those who did not have his confidence
were we'll aware that the old mans de-
clining years were shadowed and troubled
by the profligate habits of his younger
son, Wash. Frederick Nathan, like his
father, was self respecting, upright, in
dustrious man, who had already made a
reputation that promised success, even
without the backing of his fathers wealth.
Benjamin Nathan deserved the affection
Of his sons, and, rs has often been said,
there was no reason why he should have
an enemy in the world.
On the evening Of.July go the old man,
who had been at the synagogue, came to
his house, 12 West Twenty third street,
where Mrs. Kelly gave him q light supper.
Tho furniture in the house was very much
disarranged, as many Of the articles had
been sent to the country residence in the
spring, and the bedstead in the old gentle
mans room had been taken down, prepar-
atOry to cleaning. In order not to disturb
the housekeeper Mr.. Nathan told her to
make q bed with some mattresses placed
on the floor, and this she did about Q
O'Clock that night, while he was busy ex-
amining his papers in an adjacent hall
room, where he had a safe and desk, and
which he used rs an Office
A rain and wind storm of unusual VIC.
lence swept the streets of the city that
night. The hOwling of the wind and the
crashing Of the thunder must have drown.
| ed out the old mans cries for help, for 1t
is very certain he made q stout resistance,
although feeble man.

JOHN JOthUAN.
Benjamin Nathan is killing Superintend-
ent Jourdan. The chief knows who the
murderer Is, and the secret is taking him
to the grave,
1t is a curious fact that from the day Of
the murder the health of Superintendent
Jourtian. who had been a very strong man,
began TO fail, and within three months he
was in his grave.
Although Washington Nathan was never
brought to trial. the suspicion of the pub
lie was against him, but whether we'll
founded or not can never be determined
it is known. however, that the day after
the murder Washington Nathan caused
all the blood marks to be effaced from the
walls and from the carpets 1t Is also
known that a mysterious bundle of bloody
clothes was smugglcd out of the house the
following night. The woman who washed
these clothes was well known, but in the
face of the great reward she persistently
kept her secret and denied that the clothes
were bloody. A curious fact in this con-
nection is that the woman's circumstances
changed after this. SO that she no longer
took in washing for living.
About six months after the death of
Benjamin Nathan, Wash was shot by a dis
solutc woman, but the wound was not
fatal. A great sensation was caused nv
the r,imor that the doctors would get the
young mans secret while Inc was under
the influence of an anasthetic, but the ex-
pertinent Was not tried.
The Nathan mystery has never been
solved and it is reasonable to believe new
er will be. Fred Nathan continued his
fathers business, and Wash died In Paris
about five years ago.
