Hts Death In Luxon Brought
Sorrow to the Nation-Son of the
Late Gen. Logan,

The late Major John A. Logan, Jr.,
was born in July. 1865. at Murphys-
borough, III. He received an appoint
ment to West Point Academy and at
tended for two years, but resigned
shortly before his class was graduated.
Since his marriage to Miss Edith An
drews, daughter of the late millionaire
coal operator. c. H. Andrews, March
70, 1887, he resided at Youngstown, o.
He owned the Oriole stock farm and
was engaged in limestone mining.
His aspirations for military life, ac-
quired from his noted father, Black
Jack" Logan. were made evident in
his boyhood days. He attended the
grammar schools. and then entered the
Chester Military Academy. Shortly
afterwards his desire for an army life
found way and he was appointed cad
ct at the United States Military Acad-
emy at West Point. He remained here
but two years, however, leaving his
class to enter into the real estate busi-
ness at Washington, D. c.. where his
father, then a member OF the United
States senate, resided.
Shortly after this he gave his aid to
the vice-presidential campaign of his
father. In the war for votes he met
c. H. Andrews of Youngstown, o., a
coal and Iron magnate. The latter
took an active interest In the political
fight. and In the end Jack" Logan be-
came the husband of Mr.. Andrews
daughter Edith. The wedding occurred
in 1887 and was one of the society
events Of the year.
After his marriage Maj. Logan de-
voted much OF his attention to the
breeding OF fine horses. The English
hackneys from his Ohio stock farm Sc

shows held throughout the country.

HE FOUND THE MAN

In my early days was a reporter on
The Clarion Call. Only a dislike to own
myself beaten and the occasional fascina-
ton which compensated for the more fire.
quent discomfort kept me in the office.
But all this was before the day I was sent
to interview the wife and daughter of the
man who had just disturbed society by
disappearing from it.
Mr.. Grey, so it had been learned from
the notices concerning his disappearance,
had one evening after dinner gone out for
stroll around the block. He had never
come back. His family was of course
Frustrated after the manner of families on
such sad occasions. After giving him
time to come back, sending to his clubs,
his office and the houses of his friends his
wife had finally told his lawyers, and sys-
tematic search was begun. The family
had retired from public life and denied
themselves to every one, consequently
my chances for an interview with Mrs.
Grey did not see hopeful, but the city ed
itor's air of granting me the opportunity
had been longing for made me lGath to
admit my fears.
took the train for the Greys' they
lived a little way out of town-and pre-
pared myself to meet the servants scorn
and the other attendant evils of such an
assignment. The coach was an ordinary
one, ana there were several laboring men
In IL, evldHItly travelling to some suburb
where they were to work upon the roads
for they carried pickaxes and shovels.
Jnere sat opposite me and slightly for
Gard peculiar type of man to whom l
found my gaze wandering every few min

very unevenly cut. His face was covered
with stubbly growth of gray beard. He
looked unwashed, unkempt and generally
unpleasant. His blue overalls were stain.
ed with red clay and his red flannel shirt
opened at the front in a way that revealed
anything but beautiful neck, burned
and blisterod But the mans twitching
attracted my attention, and his deep set
steely blue eyes that burned in cavernous
sockets fascinated me. He did not talk to
| the other men, but sat with his head sunk
upon his breast, only occasionally raising
| it to cast a look about him. He, with the
| other laborers, left the train at Forestville,
! where the Greys lived, and l soon saw

familiar. I stared at it until the servant
returned.

see no one, and has nothing to say for

toward the picture.

denly it flashed upon me where had seen
those deep set, curiOusly shaped, keen blue
eyes. My heart leaped almost into my
mouth. took one long look at the por-
trait and left the house.
The men were repairing the road, and
noticed one of the workmen whose face
startled me. The resemblance to the por-
trait had seen of Mr.. Grey was remarka-
BILE He worked with fierce delight in
the severe labor. His face seemed more
mad than ever, with the exultation of mo-
ton and strength deepening the CLEAN in
his eyes.
There was telegraph office at the end
of the street. I sent message to the city
editor. "Send man to Forestville at
once," was my command. Then while I
paced the street and walked about the
square reflected upon the welcome I
would receive If had made a mistake.
Every minute became mo and moro
convinced that had made the most oolos-
sal blunder on record. By the time Mr..
Ellington Ellsworth, the only man who
happened to be available when my tele-
gram was received, had arrived I was
nearly hysterical. I told Mr.. Ellsworth
my theory, and he was properly skeptical.
He discouraged me thoroughly in about
two minutes, but suddenly rallied.
"Well," remarked, taking command,
II want you to keep that man in sight. I
shall go to town and get his lawyer. Find
out what train they go in on, and I'll
meet you"
Mr. Ellsworth didn't wish to act upon
that sug gestion, but he finally consented
to do So I went in, summoned Mr..
Grey's lawyer and with him met tho
workingmen's train. Mr. Ellsworth, look
ing bored and unhappy, got out and point

his lawyer. My heart stood in my mouth.
