soHoRR,s Suicide.
The Clergyman Love Crazy. His
Career Here.

AAo DferSyhhn Love Crazy His
Career Here.
The Rev. II. Greenfield sohorr, who
committed suicide in Baltimore on Sun
day, was ordained priest In 1884 in st.
Andrews p. E. Church, this city, by the
late Bishop Lee, the ordination sermon
being preached by the Rev. Mr.. King
solving, rector Of the Church Of the
Epiphany, Philadelphia. For year fol-
lowing his ordination to the priesthood
Mr.. Schorr was rector Of Grace Church,
brandywine hundred. From there he
went to MoKeesport, Pa, where he was
rector OF large church until nearly two
years ago, when he became assistant rec
tor OF st. PauP5 Church, Baltimore. He
was regarded as eccentric while here.
On one occasion, at convention of Del
aware olergymen, be amused the minis
tors by claiming to bs the youngest and
handsomest clergyman present. AT
school he was classmRte Of the Rev. II.
Ashton Henry.
Further inquiries Into the life of Mr..
Schorr, says a Baltimore special,
brings to light the fact that he was
dramatically crazy. He was great nd.
mirer OF the fair sex, and was twice en-
gagged to be married, once to young
lady in Pittsburg and Mt another time
to girl in East Baltimore. Both of these
engagements he broke OF himself and
then sought others on whom to place his
affections.
His last flame was young woman
above him in station, and, though he
brought all his fascinating powers into
play, he was unsuccessful in obtaining
her consent to an engagement.
It Ia stated that he contracted other
entangllng alliances which he feared
would soon become known and lead to
his disgrace. Those who knew him best
say he was great lady's man, and, being
fine conversationslist and very enter
tanning, made himself exceedingly pop
ular.
The fact that he was Of humble parent.
age made him discontinued with his lot.
Not even his rector knew that his father
was poor cobbler, living in Baltimore.
His family anteoedents he kept to him
self, nor did they become known until
after his death. The suicides last re.
guest that he be buried from the church
will not be complied with. The body
was given in care Of the poor father,
whom he never publicly acknowledged,
and he will be buried from his parents
humble home.

At the beginning Of the protective ex-

considered sufficient protection to the
manufacturer. The average of duty has
now reached AZ per cent and still the
tariff lesches cry for more. The duty on

the users Of tin-plate in this country over
