DIED IN ALLEGHENY.
Mrs. Mary Jackson Passed Away Satur-
day Afternoon.

Saturday forenoon Mrs. ]. W. GILES.
pie and Mrs. a. Alex Stoke received a
telephone message that their mother,
Mrs. Mary Jackson, was very i'll at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Edwin Coz
zard, in Pittsburgh. They quickly ar
ranged to start for Pittsburg on the
Loo p. m. trolley via Punxsutawney,
but they did not know that five minutes
before they left Reynoldsville their
mother had gone to her Eternal Home.
The daughters travelled all afternoon
hoping to see their mother at the end
OF the journey, and did not know until
they arrived in Pittsburgh that she,
who had always been so loving, tender
and gentle with them, would never
more greet them on this side of the
Evergreen Shores.
1t was not until nine o'clock Saturday
night that word was received here that
Mrs. Jackson had passed away and the
news of her death was a shock to her
legion of friends in Reynoldsville, as it
was not generally known that she was
III, and those who did know of her ILL
ness did not think she was so critically
Ill. Mr.. Stoke and Mr.. Gillespie drove
to Dubois Saturday night and took the
early morning "fyer" oyer B., r. & P.
R'y for Pittsburgh.
About year ago Mrs. Jackson was
operated on for appendicitis and she
never got real strong again after the
operation. Four weeks ago she left
here TO visit her daughter in Pitts
burgh and with relatives in Ohio.
While attending the PITTSBURGH Expo
sition one evening the first of last week
she took suddenly i'll, which was the
beginning of the end of her earthly
career.
Mrs. Jackson was member of the
Methodist Episcopal church, member
of the Helping Hand Society and
Foreign Missionary Society.
Mrs. Jackson was noble christian
woman. During her first residence in
Reynoldsville, from 1878 to 1886, she
won the high esteem of all who became
acquainted with her and she ever after
retained that high standard of respect.
Mrs. Jackson was devoted wife, loving
and thoughtful mother and kind neigh
Dor. She was quiet and unassuming in
her christian, as we'll as her social life,
but her clear intellect and sweet grace
of spirit gave her an unconscious influ
ence over others. She was unselfsh,
always forgetting about herself and
doing for others.
Her last illness was brief, and she
passed away leaving with her loved
ones the heritage of a well-spent life.
Funeral service was held at the
Gozzard residence Monday evening and
interment was made in the Monon-
gahela cemetery Tuesday forenoon be-
side husband of deceased. l.. A. Jack
son, who died several years ago.

a foot or so of blood-stained water and
the body of a dead Spanish sailor
which rolled from side to side as the
water swashed about. The captain was
tenderly placed in chair and then
boisted to the deck, where he was re-
eeived with the honors due his rank.
AS the chair was placed on the quar-
ter-deck he slowly raised himself to
his feet. unbuckled his sword belt,
kissed the hilt of his sword, and, bow
ing low. gracefully presented it to me
as a token of surrender. [ never felt
so sorry for a man in all my life. OF

or rather I instantly handed it back
to Captain Eulate, but accepted the
surrender of his officers and men in the

As I supported the captain toward

as we reached the hatch, and drawing
himself up to his full height, with his

the foreeastle, where he asked how long
it would take to close all the water
tight doors. [ replied that in the day
time we could do it in thirty seconds,
but at night it would take about two
minutes. Much to my surprise, he ask
ed if I would mind doing it for him.
Of course I had to say yes, but when I
tried to blow the siren, the signal to
close the water-tight doors, there was
not steam enough, and the blessed
thing would not blow. The emperor
thought he had me, and said, "NoW
you see, captain, you can t close your
bulkheads. - But he did not know ev-
erything. I said, "You VIII see in a
moment, sir,' and I touched one of the
general alarm buttons, which calls all
hands to the quarters, and in a few
seconds the men were swarming up like

more than l cared to face; that as the
legs belonged to me, l thought l had
right to say what was to become OF
them; and that l asked the doctors to
do what they could for me with my legs
on. and if died it was no matter. He
