IN SELECTING A WIFE.
Some Thoughts and Suggestions from
Rev. Nlr. Temples sunday Evening

Some Thoughts and Sugge stions from
Rev. Mr. Temples Sunday Evening
Discourse.
In spite of the rain the First Bap-
tist church last Sunday evening con-
tained the largest audience it has held
for months, assembled to listen to the
first sermon in the series on " Courtship,
Marriage and Home by the pastor of
the church, Rev. L. ID. Temple. The
sermon was very practical and inter
spersed with interesting and pointed
illustrations. The text was from Gen
ii "a. The following brief extract
hardly does the sermon Justice:
Every man be sure you are able to support
wife before you take one. Choose girl whose
parents are not anxious TO get her of their
hands. She may be selfish, disagreeablc in tenn
alone. Choose a girl who has a larger wealth
of amiabili;y. principle and common sense than
of beauty. The raven Of her hair will turn to
the cream Of her complexion the years will fur
row but q oeauty of the soul will lie as attrac-
tive In age as now. Choose girl who knows
more than you do. You will need some one to
inspire you and broaden your mind and culture.
You should have wife wholfs better than you
are. You will need religion In your home and II
you have none OF your own you should by Ali
means have Christian wife. An ungodly
woman who opposes her husbands religion Is
his worst enemy. You should use the same
Judgment and discl cletfon in courtship chat YOU
would in an investment of your hard earned
money. IL a young man IL not clean In his

From our Townshend correspondent
A terrible tragedy was enacted in
the usually quiet town of TownsEend
Saturday, and stirred the community
as no event has for many years. George
A. Cushing committed suicide by
shooting himself in the head on the
farm owned and occupied by Mrs.
Nettie Gushing. When found by one
of the sons OF Mrs. Cushing he was
lying on the ground near the house in
an unconscious state, the blood rolling
from the bullet hole in the right
temple, the revolver lying on the
ground between his two hands. DR..
Osgood was summoned and Mr.. Hol-
brook, one of the selectmen, sent for,
and the man was carried to Mr..
Batchelder's who lived near. He
remained unconscious, dying at eight
that evening. 1t seemed that the un-
fortunate man came from Orange,
Mass, the night before on the train,
and stopped at the Taft house. Moth
ing unusual in his demeanor attracted
attention. He wrote several letters
in the Office Saturday morning, and
early in the afternoon, and on exam
ination letters were found in hi
pockets, three sealed and one unsealeds
The sletters plainly proved that he
came to the town fully intent upon
committing the dreadful deed. for he
directed his brother, to whom one let
ter was addressed, as to the disposition
TO be made of his body, and as to the
settling of his business. The body was
put in the tomb Sunday to await the
brothers. arrival. Tuesday morn
ing, Allan Cushing, his brother, and
wife from Milton, Mass, Mrs Wilder,
an adopted sister, and husband, from
Milton, and friends from Orange,
Mass, and Chesterfield, N. H., came
by train. and made arrangements as to
the disposition of the body. No official
investigation was considered necessary
though asked for by some, as it was
clearly case of premeditated suicide.
Funeral services were held at the Con
gregational church Tuesday forenoon,
conducted by the two pastors. The
body was taken TO Chesterfield, n.
H., on Wednesday by Mr. Taft. 1t
should be enough for the general pub
lie to know that domestic unhappiness
was the cause of the terrible affair,
and that Mrs. Nette Gushing, who
owns the farm where the deed was
committed was the wife of the
deceased. 1t was plainly proved by
the tracks that the unfortunate man
did not visit the house, but could see
the house from the spot where the deed
was done. The farm was the one owned
in former years by Deacon Winslow,
and was sold to the present occupants
about two years ago.

More About the Cause.

About four years ago George A..
Gushing, aged 81, lived in Montague,
Mass. with his wife and four children.
He was carpenter, and went to
Orange to work at his trade, leaving
his family in Montague. In his
absence his wife became intimate with
a man named A. A. Ross of Montague,
and conducted herself in such way
that Gushing, when he learned the
facts, went to California, bought land.
built house, and sent for his wife
and children to come there, hoping,
evidently, that under new surround
ings, the wife would again make a
home for him and their children. In
answer to his letter, Mrs. Gushing
wrote that she thought they had better
first sell their Place in Montague.
Papers for this purpose were drawn
and sent to Mr.. Gushing, who signed
and returned them. The wife did not
appear. however. and the next Cush-
ing heard was that Mrs. Gushing had
bought a farm in Townshend and
moved there with Ross and the
children. This was two years ago.
Twice since their removal to Towns
hend residents of the town have re-
ceived letters from Gushing. asking
how the family were getting on, and
about schools, churches, etc. Mrs.
Gushing refused to have the body
brought to the house, and it was taken
to neighbours and prepared for
burial. In the mans pocket were
three letters, one directed to L. A.
Gushing, Milton, Mass. Another letter
was addressed to Mrs. Gushing. This
said that the letter had been written
in sight of her home. He reprimanded
her for her conduct, but said that all
had been forgiven and asked that has
body be buried near there on land
which his own money had bought.
