= Former Somerset Boys wife At
tempts Suicide.

The New York Tinss Of Sunday contains
al interesting bit Of gossip concerning the
domestic troubles Of George Chorpening, Jr.,
and the attempted suicide Of his wife. The
young gentleman is the youngest son of
Major George Chorpenning, native Of this
county and for many years a resident Of this
town. He has been living with his mother,
who secured divorce from Chorpening q
few years ago and married James Redpath,
the well-knoEn journalist and lecturer, who
died last fall from injuries received by being
run over by 3 street car II New York.
It vas in October last that young George
Chorpenning met the woman who is now
his wife She was an inmate OF question
able house and was pretty, with attractive
manners. In April last he told his mother
Of his love fOT the young woman and OF ais
discrimination to make her his wife
This was, Of course, a great shock 10 Mrs
Redpaih, and she endeayored TO dissuade
her son from his course. Finding that this
was of no avail and that her son vas deter
mined to marry the girl at all hazards. Ms.
Redpath gave her consent, and the couple
were married.
Chorpening brought his wife to the house
Of his mother and she was installed in one
of the best rooms in the house. All went
well for time. The young woman could
be very sweet and loving when she wished
to be, and Mrs. Redpath was prepared to
.,,t - ,,-;.h i-s-y.,,,-- 81 -..s-. 49, -.
py. Bat recently there has been censidera-
Die friction between Ms. Redpzth and her
daughter-in-lag, because, as Ms. Redpaih
says, she has interfered in household Affairs
There has probably been a good deal OF
sguabbling and pickering between the wom-
en-.
On Thursiay morning Mrs. Redpath took
her daughtes-inlaw 10 task for interfering
with the servants. Yoang Mrs Chorpening
was angry and len the house after kissing
her husband goodbye, and telling him that
she was going 20 Brooklyn.
Il was discovered later that she had taken
her husbands razor with her. That after
noon Chorpening received a note from his
wife, in which she wrote that she intended
TO commit suicide.
Saturday morning Mrs. Chorpsning walk
ed into police station on West Thirtieth
street and muttered something about being
tired Of life and that life was a burden to
her. Then she took from beneath the folds
of her dress razor and before the officers
could interfere had drawn the blade across
her throat. The razor was sharp, but either
the young woman lacked nerve or did not
intend to Kill herself for the wound was
not deep.
In the course of Mrs. Chorpening's career
she has been both stabbed and shot. She
wiz be arraigned to answer charge of at
tempting suicide.

throats OF the others. The recoliections OF
the devilish manner in which some Of bis

into the store room but had barely crossed
the threshold when the clerks pounced up
on them and captured them.
Their arrest was brought about in neat
manner by Mr.. Beerits. It has been Mr..
Beerits' custom just before closing the store
at night TO place ali the small change in
tin measuring cup and secret II some where
about the store. Saturday evening he OBJ
served Harding and Penrod in;ently watch

plate glass windows. Going 10 the cash
drawer he leisurely empiied the contents OF
the cup, which had previously been hlled
with Eails, into paper bag and carefully
hid the bag behind some boxes on shelf.
Penrod made straight for the place where the
bag had been deposited upon entering the
store room.
Neither Penrod nor Harding are over IS
years Of age, and both are residents Of this
place.

pretty PIC mic orounds.

OF all the pretty pic mic grounds in this
county none are comparable with the "Mow-
ry' grove near Friedens, where from time
out Of date farmers families ofthat commu-
nifty have met annually TO celebrate the
harvest home" The grove is studded with
stately oaks and chestnut trees. while the
sward beneath their gnarled limbs is Of ma
tures richest and softest green. A spring Of
sweet water bubbles up in convenient
spot. Moss-eoyered stumps and logs greet
the eye at every turn. 1t has become q very
popular pic mic ground for parties from a
distance since the Somerset & Cambria Rail
road was constructed, but If the managers
Of that corporation gan be made to realize
what bonanza they could make ont Of il,
we are certain they would take some step
towards making ingress and egreSs from it
more inviting. The grove is situated per-
hzps one mile from the line fthsi road and
g switch could be laid to the entrance OF it
for merely the price Of the rails and
ties. and the cost of putting them into posi-
ton. One such pic nic as the Johns;oEn
merchants would pay al the expense the
company would be put to, and once the
switch Is laid there is not a particle Of
doubt that they would have excursions to
the grounds almost every day during The
season. The Johnstown merchants were
only compelled to abandon it as the place
for their pc mic this season BY reason Of the
compelled walk from the station to the
grove. The Friedens grove is one of Gods
most beautiful temples and We hope the peo-
pie Of that community viii attract the at
tention Of the B. & o. r. r. authorities to
the advantages that corporation can derive
from it by the expenditure ofa few hundred
dollars in the direction we have indicated.

Poet Whittier Dead.

John Greenleaf Whittier, the gentle Qusk-
er poet, died at Hampton Falls, n. H. Sept.
Z. His death came as peacefully as his lie
was spent. For some days there had been
no hope that the anti-slayery singer could
shake of the hand of Death which all saw
had been laid upon him.
Hi. physician, Dr.. Douglass, and bis near
est relatives were st his bedside when the
final summons came at early dawn Wednes-
day. The venerable poet was conscious 70
the end. but was too weak to speak.
Several days ago Whittier said to the
Doctor;
at Is no use. I'm worn out"
