What answer did you give himy'
asked Mrs. DelanOr.
II told him, in the frat place, that
he had known Isabelle too short time
to be certain Of his love for her or
hers for him, even II she loved him at
.all; that the girl should in any event
decide for herself and that, finally.

as you know. would surely kill me and
I could not bear to have Isabelle go

by the way" asked Mrs. Delanor,
"have you noticed how peculiarly
Samuga has acted since Mr.. Thurston
cameY'
Il have, indeed; and it has worried
me greatly" Mr.. Delanor replied.
"Samuga is a noble fellow and as
brave a man as ever lived. If only he
were not a native would rejoice at
the prospect of having him as pro-
tector for Isabelle. l am satisfied that
he worships her and that he is tierceiy
jealous of young Thurston."
Down by the moonlit sea Ralph was
at the same moment telling Isabelle
of his love as they sat in kind of ma
tural bower of widedrooping gigantic
ferns. He was an eloquent pleader
and with all the fervor he could COM
mand he implored the girl to become
his wife and go with him into the
world, the splendors of which he de-
scribed much as Claude described to
Pauline the glories of his palatial
home. Isabelle was visibly impressed,
but she wavered not moment.

said, land l will never go away and

Thurston didenot. abandon hope, but
decided to carry bis point at all haz-
ards. = .. ...
5 On the morning following Ralph's
proposal he and isabelle went down to
! the beach to swim. Samuga watched
them from the beach, when the Sam

harbor He could see men trying to

Following the evident direction OF
fthefr glances the keen eyes OF the ma
tive detected the cause of the tumuit
Even at that distance he could see the
! dorsal fin of shark, that man-eatlne
tiger of the sea, moving swiftly
] through the water toward Isabelle
He could also see that ThurstOn was
making frantic efforts to reach the
boat that had put off from the schoon'
er, and had left Isabelle to her fate
There was a chance that the boa1
might reach and save the girl if it did
not stop to take Ralph in. Thurston
was in no immediate danger, as the
shark was headed for Isabelle. He
was frantic with terror, however, and
when the boat reached him he halted
it and clambered in over the stern
sheets. This action meant death te
Isabelle, as far as Thurston was con
/ cerned.
But there was another factor in the
situation. The instant that Samuga
discovered the shark he ran to the
reef, unmoored and leaped into his
canoe and in a trice the little craft
was fairly flying over the water, pro-

In like manner Hoods Sarsaparilla
expels from the blood impurities that
have been deposited during the season
when there has been but little perspi-

is boon to tired mothers, housekeep-
ers, teachers and others who spend
their time indoors.
1t gives the blood richness and vital

some Interests, g Facts Concerning the
Aged Ohio Statesman.
The false report cabled all over Pthe
world last week to the effect that
John Sherman had died I'M the West
Indies caused the public eye to be
turned once more toward that eminent
republican statesman, from whom lit
tie had been heard since his retirement
from the Mckinley cabinet.
A writer in one of the New York
dailies tells a few things about Mr..
Sherman that will doubtless prove IN
teresting and are worthy of reproduce
ton. He says, among other things:
"Mr. Shermanl has employed his
time since he left the cabinet in the
preparation of a third volume of his
autobiography which carries him from
his election to his last term IN the
senate down to the present date, and
his comments upon the policy of the
present administration and his own
treatment are said to be very severe.
He discusses the war with Spain in a
most vigorous manner, | am told; at
tacks the war department, and is
especially vindictlve toward the pres
ident, Secretary Alger and Judge Hay
also, while he defends General Miles,
the husband Of his niece, with great
vigor. The book is still in manuscript,
and it is said to, he his intention to
send it to the publisher this spring.
"Mr. Sherman is a rich man, ais
though his wealth has been commonly
oyerestimated. 1t is mostly In real
estate, and has rapidly advanced in
value. The greater part of his money
is due to the future of Washington.
During the improvements made there
by Boss Shepherd he INVESTED large
ly and has continued to buy as his
means would permit. Some of the
property for which he paid 5 and 10
cents square foot is now selling for
as many dollars. he lives in a fine
house and enjoys luxury, although lie
is frugal in his habits and his wants |
are few. He always counts his money, |
and while strictly honest he never per-
mits himself to be imposed upon. He |
INDUCES in no extravaganza and never |
wastes cent. He has always been a |
just man in the highest sense of that
word, although not generous. He has
no family except an adopted daughter,
Mary"

The Family Was One of the Best Known
la Albany. The Bodies Found by
Servant IN Pool of Blood.
Walter r. Jackson, one of the most
prominent young men of Albany, killed
his wife and three N lnths old child and
then shot himself dead in his home in
that city Tuesday night.
The dead bodies OF the. family were
found next morning by a servant in
the house who went to Jacks mis- room
to call him.
The crime could not have been more
shocking Lad it occurred in any family
in Albany. Jackson and his wife were
among the most popular young people
of Albany and everybody thought their
home life perfectly serene and happy
The coroner of Dougherty county en-
panneled a jury at the Jackson house,
and, after Investigation, it was con-
cluded that while temporarily insane
Jacks shot his child, wife and himself.
SCENE OF THE CRIME.
Jackson resided on Pine street. Tues
day morning at 6 o'clock a servant went
to the jackson room and there found
the dead bouies. The baby was held in
its mothers arms aud the lifeless forms
of the husband and wife were stretched
on the bed side by side.
IL
left temple, the baby through the chest
and Jackson through the right temple
There was every Indication that all died
instantly when shot. The crime is sup>
posed to have been committed at about
daylight, but no one was found who
heard the pistol sho's. JacksOn's pistol
was found by his side. The only other
occupant OF the house except the Jack
sons was Mrs. Ed Richardson, Jackson's
grandmother, who did not hear the
shots
The Jackson home is only a short dis
lance from the Cbautauqua. and it is a
large twO,story frame mansion with no
trees and no fence about the house.
There are SIX rooms, and 1T was in an
eastfro room upstairs that the crime
was committed.
WENT HOME CHEERFUL.
On the night of the tragedy Jackson
went to his home apparently in the
most cheerful mood, and was heard
whistling before entering his house.
The husband was noted for his genial
disposition and personal magnetism.
lie was always cheerful and of sun
shiny disposition. He was kind and
loving to his wife and child, and it
was frequently the cause of remark
that the family was happy and con-
'nted.

What prompted the fathers horrible
deed? Who can answer? DR. 2. L.
Hilsman, who had always been the
family physician. expressed the belief
that Mr.. jackson was either tempora~
rily insane or else shot his wife and
babe while under the power of some
horrible nightmare, then, awakening
and realizing what he had done, turned
the weapon on himself.
HIS BUSINESS CONNECTION.
1t was rumored on the streets of AL
bany that Jackson had recently lost
his position as cashier and head book
keeper of Messrs. Carter d Voolfolk,
warehouse and commission merchants,
and that this preyed on him, probably
causing his mind to become unbal-
anced. Mr.. Voolfolk, a member of the
firm, says there was no truth in the
reports, that Jackson's accounts with
the firm were perfectly straight, and
that he had not lost his position.
LOyABLE YOUNG WIFE.
Mrs. Jackson was the Oldest daugh.
ter of Mr.. William Goodwin of Albany
and niece of Mrs. FL. E. WardWell of
Dawson, and was the idol of her fam.
lly circle and the special favorite of
large circle of friends and was highly
esteemed by all who knew her. She was
formerly belle of Albany and was a
beautiful young woman with every
lovable trait, and when she and Jack

congratulations Of hundreds of warm
friends and admirers,
