The 26 sales people were kept on the jump all day and until 11:30 a t night and even then we could not master the crowds of buyers; hundreds of people could not be waited on and had to leave the store without being waited on, We wish to apologize to the customers th a t could not be reached even by our large force of help. We will have the regular force of 26 sale* people and from now on wilt have 10 extra sales people on Saturday. So from now on we will be able to handle .the large crowd on Saturday.

Since he gavo r.o name, as was customary in Dtwh t-aixs, a name was given him. Rut this was Cot fill it was noticed that he appeared to bo looking for mnmi one. Then they called him “tho ohadower.” Jle had no confidants, no m-soclaion. Uo en­ tered upon no bueluet’a, but ceenjed to have what money he needed. He was continually walking about, alwayswith n revolver at each hip, and It was no­ ticed that he usually kept an eye to*' ward hie reap. Ho was a well favored, man about twenty-eight, and what few young women there were In Rockland adored him. Perhaps It was the mystery there was about him, though he never took any notice of thorn. One of the girls, Eunice Parks, bet sbe could make him smile, but she lost tho bet. Neverthe­ less she succeeded In at leas estab­ lishing an acquaintance. The were seen occasionally walking together and usually In earnest-conversation. Eu­ nice was a good deal of a hoyden,’just the girl to make such a bet, but from the time she fell In with the shadower she began to get sober, and It wasn’t long before she was going about ap­ parently with just such a load on her shoulders as the stranger seemed to be carrying. Her intimate friends questioned her about the mysterious man who never Smiled and who seemed to have drawn her under the spell by which he was Influenced. ■They got nothing out of her, and by and by her parents, per­ ceiving that there was something wrong with her, made every effort to Induce her to give them her confidence. They succeeded no better than, hep companions, who wore her companions no longer, for, like tho stranger, she was without associates, without con­ fidants. When she was asked if he had confided In her she answered “No,” but hesitatingly, as much as to say that she was in a measure at least In the dark. Was he influencing her without telling his story, Or had he no story to tell? ■■ . “ 'V. Wherever there Is a mystery there are a thousand explanations, and of the mystery of the shadower now extended to Eunice Parks in two explanations wore alike. After Eunice was drawn Into the vortex the parents of those who had beeii her friends feared that their daughters might be contaminated as people catch diseases from one an­ other. But If this contributed to the separation between her and ber for-' mer associates It was but a slight part, for Eunice dropped them before any of them dropped her. As time went on the shadower grow more cautious In his motions, as If the altercation he seemed to Ixf expecting might be more Imminent. He was seen on one occasion while walking' through th t town to tarn suddenly, clapping his hand to his right hip. I t was noticed that when coming to a corner before advancing to chose & street he would hastily glance* to the right and left as people In crowded cities do to avoid swift moving vehi­ cles. , - One afternoon the shadower was scon walking rapidly toward a wood on the outskirts of tho town. A boy who saw him said ho was talking to himself. Suddenly from the wood sev­ eral shots rang out. There was tio donbt about this, for they were heard by four different people who noticed them particularly, there having been no shooting In the town or vicinity for a long while. They differed, however, In tho number of the shots. Two of theso persons Were chatting together whan the shots were fired, Tlioy were talking about the stranger, who had hurried past them a few min­ utes before. They went, to the wood, , and there lay tho shadower with a huh let In hts temple. One chamber of his revolver had been emptied, and after searching a ball was found In the trunk of a tree near by. The -body of the shadower, who now seemed to nave been really the shad­ owed, was examined and the clothing searched carefully for evidence of his identity. On the brdy a number of scars were found, and the clothing was bare of any evidence whatever. Search' was made for tbe man who had killed him, but lie was not found. The ground was examined for his tracks, but It was r.ot of a character to receive impressions, being coarse, and covered with dead leaves. Some were surprised that the bullet found in the tree was of the* same caliber ns those of the otranger’a weapons, both bfciug 45 caliber. But In that country everybody carried a 45 caliber re­ volver. People were divided between sever­ al opinions. There were those who maintained, as appearance Indicated, that the stranger hud been killed by an enemy. There were those who be­ lieved the man had cor-rnUted some crime and foartu retribution till lie Imagined he was followed and hail eventually killed himself. A third class believed that punishment had been visited upon him by the gbodflt of some one he had wronged. Of course every effort war. made to Induce Eunice Barks to tell what sk« knew—if, indeed, she know anything. She did not admit that site know any­ thing and would toll nothing. She was much affected by the stranger’* oiteath and would not look at his body •after death. It wn<: hurled where it v ffell and a stone put up hearing only - tw *£5 word?, “The Unknown,’* Eunice Barks pined away and died.
