Attempted Suicide.

Mr.. Hanson L. Withers, Jr., prom
inent young society man of Philadel-
phia, who recently visited the family
of Mrs. ]. S. Pierce, at Argyle, at
tempted suicide on Tuesday night at
his apartments at the Mt. Vernon Ho-
tel, Baltimore, by shooting himself.
His roommate Walter Pierce, makes
a statement in which he says Mr..
Withers had been suffering from mel
ancholia, brought about by financial diff
feulties, to which was added a strong at
tachment for Miss Helen Beckinbaugh,
niece of Col H. Kyd Douglas, whom
he met while visiting at "Arylie,
and that his fondness for the young
lady not being apparently appreciated
he became so worried that he commit
ted the rash deed. The wound is
considered dangerous one, but the
attending physicians think the young
man will recover.
The ball entered the right side OF
the face and will be removed as soon
as Mr.. Withers RECEIVERS from the
shock. The young man Is rational
and cheerful but seems to have no rec
election of the shooting His father
is travelling in Europe.

Exciting Baseball Games.

A very interesting game of baseball
was witnessed here on Saturday last
between Charlestown and Shepherds
town. There were nearly two hun
bred persons present. The Shepherds
TOWN boys put up an excellent game,
and ably defended their title of
Champions" by defeating the visiting
team by a score of20 to 4. Edmonds
and Glass constituted the battery for
the home team, while Kennedy, Dur
ham and Moreland oficiated in the
points for the visitors. The local
battery received gilt-edged support,
and the way Glass wound EN-
around the necks of the visiting team
caused the local rooters much amuse-
ment. Only two safe hits were made
off of Glass. DR.. Wilson umpired
the game in a satisfactory manner.
An interesting and exciting IA in
ming game was played on Tuesday
28th, between Shepherdstown and
combined team of three Harper's Ferry
men and professional selections from
Brooklyn, n. Y, HagerstOwn and
Brunswick, Nd, and Washington, D.
C. The combines won the game by
score of II to 10. If the Ferry had
have secured some Baltimore men
probably they would have won it in
the 10th inning. Our boys played
good ball and they can feel proud of
their fight. Eagles must be scarce IN
the Ferry from the class of rooters
they brought from there and neigh
boring hills who made Rome howl.
Two hundred people witnessed the
game. The curves and down-shoots
of Andrews and Glass, were hard for
the professional combination to hit.
Twenty three men We're struck out by
the Shepherdstown pitchers. Nichols
and MisKimmon the battery for the
Ferry were knocked out of the box.
The umpire, Mr.. Rau, made some very
unfair decisions. Probably his eyesight
was defective and we are certain that
his knowledge of the rules was very
limited. We do not question Mr..
Rau's ability as bank clerk but we
know that he counts short in baseball.
When the Ferry made the winning
run in the 18th inning and Shepherds
town had yet to bat Mr.. Rau (the
Harper's Ferry umpire) seeking for
information asked if that didn't end
it Umpires, DR.. Wilson and Mr.. Rau.
