BALTIMORE, Md, Jan. pa young man
named Michael Barron, a tailor, shot and
seriously wounded himself tonight at the
residence of Mrs. Mary Darman, on North
Castle street. It is not known whether the
shooting was accidental or not. Barron
came to this city from Cleveland, o.,
about six weeks ago, and since then has
been paying attention to Miss Sophia
Darman, pretty young girl about eighteen
years of age, residing with her mother as
above. He called this evening and was
about leaving the house, when he said:
"Sophia, you are too sweet to live and
am going to shoot you" He thereupon
drew a revolver and snapped it at her, but
it failed to explode. Miss Darman was
terribly alarmed and started to leave the
room when Barron placed the pistol to his
own brains and fired. The young girl
called for help and several neighbors came
upon the scene, when it was discovered
that the wound was a serious one. The
young lady's friends say the shooting was
an accident, and that the injured man did
not know the pistol was loaded, having
snapped it at a number of persons during
the day, Barron has been unconscious
since he shot himself.
