Grand Jury???A Dlaguatad Jury,
Tho Jackson-Me Don aid affair htj bean one
of Atlanta's most considerable sensations for
ncvcrnl weeks, beginning with the shooting
L*y Jackson of his wife and McDonald while
flagrante dclictu, and going through the stages
of separation of husband and wife, jailing of
McDonald and his payment Tuesday of a $600
line. Wednesday, was reserved, how
ever, for the devolopmeut
the roost sensational feature
of the entire affair and one which will not
only astonish the public, but put a new face
Upon the actious of all the parties to the aflsir.
RKKOUK THK OgAffD JURY.
{^Wednesday rooming Mrs. Jackson, who is
much wasted and still fceblo from the results
of her desperate wounding, was before the
grand jury to testify concerning tho affair. Tho
nuestion was pending as to whether Jackson
should be prerented for assault with
intent to murder either, or both
his wife or McDonold. Mrs. Jackson
detailed very minutely all the occurrences of
tho fatal night and declared to the ittry that
ahe was not wholly to blame for tho affair,
flbe mid that it was true that she had sinned
in bet (tiling infatuated with McDonald, loving
him from some uucontrolable impulse, but
ahe lied confessed the wrong to her husband.
Bhe raid that Jackson then wrote the noto that
waseent to McDonald and made her copy and
forward it to the young man. When McDonald's
reply casne. stating that he would call at the
hour named and saying how he would enter
the premises, it was shown to Jackson. He
then told his wife that he would be away from
home that night on business and convlneod
her of (ho truth of the statement. Tho subse
quent details of the affair hare already been
fully printed. When Mrs. Jackson had told
her story and left tho room of tho grand jury,
the members of that austero body wero fully
convinced that sbo had told a bold and bare-
fared falsehood upon her unfortunate and out*
raged husband. It did not seom possible to
them that she could have uttered tho truth.
eDonald for assault with intent to
tnurder. When he, too. had given his state
ment of what he had seen upon that occasion,
and about McDonald returning the flro with a
pistol, Jackson was questioned about the story
.thaHiis wife had told. IIo did not hesitate to
admit that all she had told was truo, and that
ho had set the trap for McDonald, as oho had
detailed. Ho said his wife had confessed to
him her love for McDonald, but lie did not
believe she would be guilty of tho supreme
act of infidelity. In order to test that ho con-
coivcrt (ho scheme of which the note was
n part, and then convinced her that he
???wss going away from tho city. Ho
anid he armed himself and laid in wait until
he saw MoDonahl meet, kiss and embrace his
wife upon the back porch, aud again ropeat
the endearments in the hall. He was asked
If he could not have then and there prevented
McDonald from frirther advances? He said
bo could have doue so. but he wanted to sat
isfy himself whether tho parties really inoant
to defilo his homo by thojr illicit intercourse.
When, by a peep through tho window,
bo wus satisfied that tho act was not beyond
them, bo fired upon them.
lONORIMO til* WHOLS CROWD.
These statements and confessions startled
tho grand jurors, and, presumably, disgust
ed them quite as muon. They decided to
ijrnoro tho {tending bills and leave tho parties
tvlicro they had placed themselves, consider
ing that McDonald and Mrs. Jaoksou had boon
sufficiently punished, aud not bolus satisfied
that Jackson intended to kill his wile when he
fired upon MoDonald.
The Woman Who Who Shot by IlorIfushaud
Tells tlio Story.
Tiir CoxattTVTiox created a genuine lonsa-
lion Thursday by telling the story, tho true
itiwordneoa of the Jookson-MoDonald scandal.
During the day the latest developments wero
freely discussed, but the developments wero
just enough to moko people hungry for the
S ntirc story. They wantod to know why
nekton, suspecting hit wife'i infidelity, com
pelled her to writo the note to McDonald.
Then they wanted to know, too, what McDon
ald would do. A Constitution reporter sought
tha three parties. Alter a great doal of trou
ble the reporter secured an audienco bofore
Mrs. Jackson. Bhe is stopping with her sister,
whom* husband is Jackson? brother, and whon
tbc icportcr entered tho parlor she was pacing
restlessly up and down tha floor with
IIKH HANDS cuamo IN FRONT OP ||RR.
She was attired in a neat calico
drees which fitted her ad
mirably. Her jet black hair was gracoftilly
arranged, and but for the several physical
Strains through which she baa recently pawed,
f he would havo appeared very handsome. Bhe
received tha reporter kindly, and motioning
him to a chair, threw her large blaok eyes
upon his face as sha sat dowu. Bho know the
reporter's mission, and appeared prepared for
tha interview.
???Well, Mrs. Jackson," began tlu* reporter,
"did your husband make you writo that uolo
to Mr Donald ?"
"llo did." was tho brief answer.
???Why?"
???I can't say, becauao I do not know axactly. I
auppose now ha was jealous, but thou I thought
it was because ho did not caro wbat 1 did."
???llow did ho happen to havo you writo tho
note?"
???I can't say exactly. On the night previous
to the difficulty he suggested I write n note to
McDonald, telling him to coma and see me.
but 1 refused then to do no, saying that I
would not unless he told me. He than wrote
the note and made mo copy it."
| ???Have you (he note he wrote?"
???Yes, 1 have, or rather, my father
lisa it. He wrote the note
himself. It was aomawhat
ditto rent from the one 1 sent, but the differ-
nice consisted in the fact that tha note Mr.
Mctanald got did uot contain near as much
ns tho on* Jdr. Jackson wrote. In coppyini
the note I left out a mat deal. I left it out be
cause 1 did uot think it necessary."
how tnr Horn waa bint.
???When did you send ill"
???The best morning. Mr. Jackson aaid to
ma as he went away that he would
?????????ud me soma ono to carry that noto to Mr.
McDonald and lor mo to sand it. Ho went
off and soon afterward tho negro woman camo
over. 1 saw him stop and call lior out ot
the bssemeut and wheu aha came I sent the
note. Why should I not hare sent it? Mjr
hnsbaud knew 1 was going to do so. lie
wrote the note tor roe, made me
copy It and famished the messenger
to carry it. Well, I sent it, and when 1 re
ceived the answer I put the note wy husband
wrote and the one Mr. McDonald wrote in a
trunk in the house, where they remained
until attar 1 was brought over hero won nded
Then 1 told roy brother about the notes, and
asked him to go and gat them. Ito did so,
and now by father hgs both notes."
???How did your husband appear when you
were writing that note? Why did ha augjeat
that you write it?"
???lie appeared not at all unusual. Oo tha
night that he first suggested the mattor he
asked me if 1 bad aver received a note from
Mr. McDonald. 1 told him 1 never had,
and I told him the truth. Then ha
aaid that he bad. He declared that a
negro boy bad brought him a note addressed
to tue from Mr. McDonald, and said that he
could show me tha boy. 11a promised to show
roe (he note, but ha never did it. lie has
E remised me tha same thing since ha shot me,
at I have nsver seen tha note yet"
1 QCKSTIOV III WOULD HOT AVSWSI.
???Did you and your husband ever have any
quarrel* ?"
7hia question Mr*. Jackson
to answer. She held her
until the aueetion had been asked sev*
erol times, wnen she said abo could not an
swer.
???Mrs. Jackson, did you think your husband
waa going to be out of town that night?"
???1 certainly did. He told me ho was going
away and made me believe it. He knew then
that that note hRd gone, and I thought he did
not core what * followed, but if
I had known that he was not
going, I would never have seen Mr. McDon
ald.' 7
During the entire talk Mrs. Jackson spoke
freely but modestly, and whenever an oppor
tunity to protect her husband's namo present
ed itself sbo seized it. Bhe showed signs o!
bitterness at times.
JACKfiON COULD NOT BR FOUND.
An effort was made to find Jackson, but it
was unEUcccfffal. He came to bis shop Thurs-
terdoy morning, but about nine o'clock left
and had not returned up to dark. Mr. John
Faith, who has been bi< constant friend, says
that he does not know what to make out of
the tangled webb. Jackson lias admitted to
him that he wroto tho note, but Mr. Faith
???ays that he believe* Jackson did not 1
wnat he was doing.
Mr. McDonald was seen, lie declined to
have anything to say upon the subject, except
that he knew all along that a trap had been
laid for him. McDonald will go to roilrording
again. Since the new phase of the affair has
been presented, ho has been offered two good
K *ace??. A petition is now being prepared to
e governor asking him to remit Mc
Donald's fine. The request is based
upon the lato facts.
One of Jackson's brothers-in-law says that
Jackson went to bis wife a few days ago and
begged her to corno back to him. lie also
fiplu d her not to toll tho grand jury that he
wrote the note and made her copy it.
A gentleman wbn lives near the Jackson
place saya that Jackson attempted to kill both
McDonald and Mrs. Jackson. He says* that
Mrt.Jackson^was not shot as sbo come out of tho
house but was shot through the window. He
says that when she was shot she throw her
hand upon the wound and then throw it
against the wall for support aud left the bloody
ks of her finger on the wall.
HEADY MADE HOOPING.
Tho Enterprise nml Inventive Clenlus of an
Atlanta Man.
Perhaps no man In Atlanta Is more widely
known UiaiuMr. O. A. Smith. Ills enterprise and
Inventive gculus nro household words among
builders In tho city, and be liu done much to
facilitate work, save labor and give a prominence
to bis business. In 1867 he established his placo
lor manufacturing readymade roofing, and In
1873 added asphalt paving, still further enlarging
in 1876 by the Invention of tho sanitary floor for
basements. Continuing his Idea* of advancement
Mr. Smith Invented in 1*83 his patent
lap. interlocked roofing. Ho has
covered over 4,000 different roofs
since ho established his business, amounting to a
jrnst many acres of space, several hundred per
'/hi s roofing consists of two or more thicknesses
walcrproofMHH^MPN
Important advantage unattainable with any
othor (prepared or ready rnaclo roofing in
tho market. Tho various other similar
roofings (now extensively used, consist of sheets of
roofing felt, or felt aud cloth, ccmentod solidly to
gether from edge to edge, and aro joined by lap-
udng one edge over the other, and then secured or
fsstctied with largo headed tacks, or nails driven
Ihrough tin caps; the joint so made having no
further protection from leakage than tho tlual
routing with which such roofs are Mulshed, and
on list roofed buildings particularly, occasion

Ulu Isjiug this patent tooling, the felt Is rolled

lower or cemented edges aud onds nro lapped one
over tho other, tho one toward tho lower side
of roof underneath, turning back tho loom Ians,
and theu secured or fastened with 3d tialls driven
through flat tin caps, placed from six to ten

of , tbc work. When so fastened,

nails, independent of the final coating with which
tho roof Is finished. Owing totholr greater dir-1
Unco apart, and cheapness of flat tins compared
w ith the stamped tins nccossory with other two

In doing the work, a considerable saving is made

After thus having laid the roofing and made
careful cenncetlous with walls, chimneys, scut

up the felt six or eight Inches, and tlrmly secur

coated with liquid Asphalt roof coating, aud alf

For the continued preservation of this roofing,

A PANIC TALK.
Wlmt the Coming Season PromUes-Some
Interesting Facts.
It Is probable that In the history of this country
there never was a time whan discussing the mon
etary condition of affairs was as much Indulged
In. Go where you will, meet whom you like, and
the financial status Is the common theme. Grey
headed sires brush their fingers through their
whitened locks and say: ???I never aaw such
time*." Bankers, merchant*, doctors, Uwyerj
and fanners alike have brooded over the question.
In reality, money has been very scarce all
during tho past summer, and thus
the present fall. It is a great relief,
however, to note that that tho back of the pinto
is practically broken, and tho downfalls that* bare
stared so many In the face have taken their snect re
like visage* from sight, vanishing like an extin
E uhhed caudle, and leaving Joy in a tboiuand
carte.
Huld Mr. A. O. M. Gay, tho well-known White-
ball rtrcct clothier, yesterday to a Constitution
roan:
???We have all had a tough pnll, but the woi
over and the light Is fast breaking???a rift has ap
peared in the hitherto blackened clouds.???
"Then you look for better times????
"O >er, unquestionably. There Is ten times as
much money In clrenlatlon os there was a month
a go, and If the weather would only change, you
would see such a difference that won id inakc you
forget all about the late depression."
"How Is your own trade promising?"
"Jmt as well as any reasonable man could
expect. I have evenr confidence In a good trade.

by a dullucss, which,wliilo It produced no decided

discourage speculation. The close to-day was firm

occasioned by tho weather reports, which states
that frost will appear in the gulf states to-night.
