THE INcoNvENIENT BRIDE.

THE melancholy fate of Ellen Scan
i Ian has been the theme Of many
heartrending ballads and tragic tales,
and although it is nearly a century
since she died, her story still is told in
Irish homes. She was a beautiful girl
so beautiful as to attract much at
tention in city noted for lovely wOm-
en-. She was also clever and witty, and
had many admirers. She lived with
her uncle, a prosperous Dublin rope
maker. named Conery, and when John
Scanlan appeared upon the scene she
hadn't a care in the world.
Scanlan was native Of County Lin
erick and was closely related to peO-
pie Of wealth and distinction. He was
on his way home from the wars, with
his servant, Stephen Sullivan. Travel
Ing in those days was an onerous busi-
ness, so the young officer was glad to
take lay off at Dublin. While lOung-
ing about the town, to see what he
might see, he met Ellen and fell in love
with her on the spot. He was an ag-
gressive wooer, and, being handsome
and eloquent, and Of a higher station
than the girl, 1t didn't take him long
to win her consent to marry him. While
Ellen was making her few brief prep
aratiOns for the ceremony, Seaman
went away to charter a clergyman, and
that his heart was evil is shown by the
fact that he engaged an unfrOcked
priest, believing that a marriage cere-
mony performed by such a man would
not be valid.
The two were married, and at once
repaired to the little village of Gin,
on the banks of the River Shannon,
where they gave a demonstration Of
love in a cottage, the faithful Sullivan
being In attendance. For little while
the girl was entirely happy, and her
husband professed to be. but only for
little while. One day Seaman re-
ceived letter from his sister. who was

PUBuC'S DEBT TO DRUGGIST
Many People In Community Fail to
Give Him All the Credit That.
10 Coming to Him.

From the nature Of the problems
considered by the druggists 10 their
national convention it is plain that
they take their business with the Sc
riOusness that it's intimate relation to
practically the entire public demands.
They seem especially interested in
combating the trend of public opinion
in favor Of restricting the freedom of
the druggist to handle his commodities
about as he pleases. The druggists
point of view is, of course, not that of
the public. Long association with dan
gerOus drugs breeds a certain con-
tempt for their dangers. Yet the drug
gist is morally-when not legally
obliged to protect the public against
its own folly and incompetence.
An INSCRIPTIONS druggist can be
the means of spreading almost as
much evil in a community as an un.
scrupulous physician. And a dishon.
est physician working in league with
a dishonest druggist can become q pos
tive menace to the health and morals
of any community. The druggist is
called upon to observe many laws.
This state of affairs has come about,
not through any public desire to sim
gle out particular line Of business
for careful regulation, but because q
certain class of druggists themselves
have In the past abused their RESPONSE
bility. Thus the laws have been forced
upon the people by druggists, para
dOxical as this may seem.
The average druggist is far more
important person in the community
than he gets credit for being. His
store Is kind Of combination pharm-
acy, cafe, club, cigar store, news stand
waiting room, post Office and tele-
phone station. For many Of his favors
to his patrons he receives no pay, and
he is not to be blamed for trying to
educate the public to its obligations to
him. In his business competition is
strong. He works early and late, Sun
days and holidays, and still the drug
gists who grow rich are very rare. The
difference between the reward the
druggist gets and the reward the same
devotion to business would earn in
other lines Is his contribution to pub
lie welfare. and this the public should
not fOrget.-Indianapolis News.

tached to it, and she wanted that ex.
plained. Sullivan was more embar,,
rassed than ever. He didn't like to,
explain that 1t was meant to sink her
body in the water. But the girl had
no suspicion of evil. She was merely
curious. After while they reached an
inlet cut off from human view, and Sui
livan set about his task. He stood up
with the club upraised. to dash out
her brains, and she looked at him and
smiled. She thought he was fOoling.
Sullivan threw the club overheard, took
the oars, and rowed back home without
word. -
Il couldn't do it," he explained to-
Scanlan, who upbraided him bitterly
to his failure; when that poor girl
smiled at me my muscles seemed
turned to water"
There was no pity in Scanlan's gal
vanized iron heart, however He was
determined upon the girls death. His
sister was becoming impatient, and the
heiress was growing restive, and dele
CATION might arrive any time, to see
what was holding him, at Glin. A few
evenings later he and Sullivan and the
bride went for another boat ride, and
she was seen alive no more. Scanlan
told the neighbOrs that he had sent
his wife for sea voyage, but few peo-
pie believed his story. There was a
general impression that something was
wrong, but nobody knew just what.
The whole community knew, though, q
week later, when the body of Ellen
Scanlan was washed ashore. She had
been so mutilated that Identification
was difficult. Most of her bones were
broken. Her skull was shattered, as
though beaten in with a club. Her
teeth had been knocked out and her
once beautiful face was one great
bruise.
Scanlan made an effort to escape but
was Overtaken. His trial was the SEN
sation of the time, and he was found

execution, so that his powerful rela-
tives would have no time to exercise
their pull in his behalf. Those rela-
tives used all their influence, but in
vain. If ever capital punishment was
justified, it was when this man ap-
peared upon the scaffOld.
Sullivan escaped for the time. After
selling the dead woman's clothes, and
some small articles Of jewelry she had
owned, he fed and concealed himself,
but the law was looking for him, and
found him twelve months after the
crime. After being jailed and brought
to a realization of the fact that his
door of hope was everlastingly closed,
he made a full confession, and in due
season was operated upon by the pain
less executioner.
The story entitled "The Poor Mans
Daughter" In the once famous Tales
Of Irish Life" was one of the innumer-
able printed narratives founded upon
the atrOcious murder Of Ellen Scan
Ian.

heiress in the nObleman's neighbOrhOOd
who was prepared to surrender as soon
as Scanlan laid siege to her. There
fore, his sister reasoned, 1t was his
duty and privilege to get busy at once.
None Of the young mans relatives
knew anything of his marriage. That
had been made a profound secret.
He must have been a peculiarly cold
blOOded individual. If he had heart
at all it was made of galvanized iron.
Even while his beautiful girl-wife law
ished her caresses upon him he plotted
her destruction. One day when she
was in the garden gathering roses
Scanlan called Sullivan into the house
and told him, in so many words, that
the woman would have to be put out Of
the way. 1t Is creditable to Sullivan
that he made a protest, and was
shocked. But Seaman was his heredi-
tary lord, SO to speak. and obedience
to his master was the first principle
of his life. He soon yielded to his
masters persuasion, and the inhuman
butchers sat planning the crime, while
the victim, smiling and singing. was
ransacking the garden under their eyes.
Scanlan had a pleasure boat on the
river, and riding in it was one Of his
wife's chief pleasures. They took an
excursion every evening. On July
evening in 1919 Seaman explained that
he had been called away on business,
but Sullivan would take her for the
customary boat ride. She took her
seat in the boat, and Sullivan took the
oars, and presently she noticed a heavy
club in the bottom Of the boat. She
asked what that was for, and Sullivan
