Mary Tag, actreaa, I accuaed of the

Intaxlcated. At Mary trial aha admlta
aha had the revolv.-r. Her ma'd teaiiflea
that Mary threatened Pollock with it pre

Her Pathejr Death.
(Continued from Teaterday.)
If aha hadn't he ahnddered
caught her breath In a amothered gob,
and for a moment tha courtroom hung;
In hate before her and the voice of
MacPheron peaklng on the wltne
tand receded to a vaat distance and
eemed to be again the murmuring;
voice of that angry mob. But he
fought back the Impending falntnea and
the rlalng tear, and aa one bracing hlm
aelf acalnat the Impaat of ome great
weight, ahe etralghtened her lender
houlder to meet without flinching- the
tory of that mornlng'a tragedy.
When Mr. Iangdon and I drove oop,"
Mlicl'heraon wa aaylng. "the men were
atilt there, and Mr. Iingdon atood oop
In the alelgh and made a peerh to them
urging them to go home quietly. 'Mia
Page I aafe In the handa of a good doc
tor,' ha ald, and you will only make a
bad matter worae If you attempt to carry
out thl plah of whipping Dan Page out
of town. I'll e to it that h leavea the
community, but If you drive him out thla
way It' going to mean disgrace to the
town and to Mary Page, too. Po you
auppone ahe could bear the thought of
her father' having been publicly
whipped?" 'Well.' ahonted one of the
men, ' 'tl not letln' here the way he
ha done It Prlvln' her and the brute!'
And the crowd began to murmur again.
Then Mr. Iingdon told them that the
drink waa like a ragln' beat lnalde of
Mr. Page, that he knew nought of what
he did; that he probably didn't remember
anything that lie really loved hi wife
and hie girl. And while he waa talkln'
one of the men gave a cry and polntlt
oop, and there In the cupola atood Dan
Page-wild Ilka the daft, rllngln' to the
i nil. and he cried oot, 'What he aay la
God' truth. I love my wife and girl as
much a yon men love your It'a
wlilaky that hurt them not me. I've
been a la In the grip of a fiend all
my life. I've tried my God, men, I've
tried to keep away from It but it get
me. The alght of It-the amell of li

trlnk because I mint, and drink more to
drown the memory of ll! I've lived In
hell for years, and no horaewhlpplng
could punish me aa doea the knowledge
of thla night's work.' Then suddenly he
burst out oryln' aobbln' like a child,
while tha men stood Marin' oop at Mm.
Then he flung out his arm and said,
'Philip take care of them be careful of
Pollock I'm going to take myaelf out of
the community now..' And at that he
leaplt up onto the rail and jumped."
Mv-rherson broke off abruptly, and
his hand shook aa he wiped the drop
of sweat off hla forehead and the gliud- j
der that gripped hltn swept through the
entire room at the thought of that body
hurtling through the air down upon the

Today we come knocking a your doors again with urgent word of the greatest of all bar
gains the King-Peck sale brings you. The sales have already been tremendous, making a newr
chapter in Omaha commercial history, but there are still as great opportunities of savings as
existed in the first place. New sections of the stock are being placed on sale every week, and
as lines become depleted in other portions, regrouping and repricing are constantly stimula
ting interest in the greatest sale of men's wear ever known to Omaha.
