FELL FOUR STORIES|
TO HIS DEATH /
WILLIAM JACKSON, JANIToR OF
ST. MARY'S HOSPITAL, KILLED
BY FALL DOWN ELEVATOR SHAFT
EARLY LAST EVENING.

A yery sad accident occurred at st.
Mary's hospital last evening about 7
o'clock, which has cast a deep gloom
over the good sisters and all others in
touch with the unhappy victim of the
misadventure.
William Jackson, the well known jan
itor Of the great hospital, who has
done duty there, off and on, for the
past dozen years, was on the third
floor of the building and, needing the
elvator for some purpose. signalled the
lower floors by bell for the cage to be
sent up to him. His call was answered
and the elevator slowly rose to his
floor, but by some mischanee, would
not stop there and rose seven or eight
feet above the point where he stood
to receive it.
He at once got chair and placed
it in the opening of the elevator shaft,
with the intention of climbing up into
it or of hauling It back to his level,
when, unhappily, the chair slipped with
him and he was NeciPitated down the
open well to the cement floor OF the
basement, sixty feet below. BE struck
upon his head and shoulders and lived
but very few moments after the aw'
full impact.
He was entirely alone when he sought
to reach the elevator ON the upper
floor and he was alone in the last un
happy moment of his conscious life, fol-
it was only his last expiring groan thai
reached one Of the passing sisters, who
noting his dreadful predieament, spread
the alarm.
When the sister superior reached hi
side, the old man was dead and all tina
+, was left to do was to summon ply
sician in the person Of DR.. j. A. Ful
ton. and send word to Father Waters
rector at st. Mary's, both Of whom ar
rived very shortly, but too late to ren
der the old janitor either physical o
spiritual aid or comfort.
The old man was native Of Der
mark, and quiet and faithful servito
and was we'll known by many who hay
had occasion to visit the big hospits

THREATENS DUElLO REFORM

Death TO the aspirations of
those would-be duelists who meet
on the field of honor with photo,

photographic Accomplishments is
threatened by a club recently
formed in Paris. This club has
passed a resolution forbidding its
members. to publish any informa-
ton whatsoever regarding their

are much disturbed. "Why fight
duels at ALL" they ask each other,
IF the public is not to be taken
into the secret?"
The brilliant careers which this
ill-advised rule will probably de-
strOy are too numerous to men
ton. The ascent of a Partisan
duelist of fame has been as con-
slant heretofore as the descent OF
the rake" depicted by HOgarth
in his Progress. The first pune
ture Of the skin brings a mans
name and picture into the papers.
Next season he exchanges two
bullets without result" and is then
hailed as the ''wellknown duel

name is admitted into Tout
Paris"-the who's Who" of the
Parisians. After this he gets free
seats at he theaters, dimes out,
and is indicated TO foreigners on
the Bots as one who has proved
his valOr on many a field"
The new club with its new resO-
lutions, it is feared, will change
all this-sic transit gloria mundi.

HIS ONE MARVELLOUS SHOT
Hunter Aimed at Doe and Killed Buck
High on Bluff-Established
REP" as Nimrod.

The saving: "A fool for luck"
was never more clearly illustrated
than in a little anecdote told by
Col. Evans in his book on Califor.
MIA. The author speaks of buck
fever" as being one of the most
violent diseases which ever at.
tackled the human system. 1T has
been the undoing of many an ex'
perienced hunter, but in the case
cited by Col. Evans ii proved to be
the making of reputation.
A farmer in Illinois named
Wheeler had never fired gun.
One winter. however, he heard so
much talk about the sport of hunt
ing that his ambition became ex.
cited. and borrowing a gun, he
started out. When he came back
he brought a magnificent buck,
shot by himself square in the mid.
die of the forehead. He said little
about his achievement, but got the
credit of being a crack shot, a
reputation which, although he
went hunting no more, he held for
several years.
Then one day he told his story,
and lost his name as sportsman.
He had seen a doe drinking out
of a creek at the foot of bluff
about 20 feet high. With wild ex-
element he got his gun TO his
shoulder. shut his eyes, set his
teeth and pulled the trigger. To
his astonishment he saw the doe
bound away unhurt, while at the
same time a glorious buck pitched
headlong from the bluff into the
creek, stOne-dead.
The buck had been looking
down at the doe. and Wheeler had
not seen him at all, but his shak.
ing gun sent its shot on fatal al
though unintended errand.
