Yes" said the editor eve had to

Dear me, don't see why" answered
the sweet young thing. 1T scented to
ma it was invaluable"
Yes, that's what we all thought, in
cluding the very bright young women
who wrote it," admitted the editor.
There didn't seem to be any problem
of the home that she wasn't qualified
to settle But she finally married"
THAT didn't lessen her ability any,
did it?" asked the sweet young thing
in surprise.
'NO-o," replied the editor slowly. "Of
course she knew Just as much as she
did before, but somehow she didn't
seem to be quite so certain OF IT. How
ever, she kept up her work, even ii she
did show that she occasionally had
doubts that never came to her before.
She was a little shy as to some points
regarding the management of the
home, but she still knew all about
the training of children, and, Of course,
that's the principal feature Of a mOth-
er's column"
"Of course" acqulesced the sweet
young thing
at last, however" continued the
editor, she became satisfied that she
wasn't even competent to Law down
rules ana decide knotty problems in
the lire of the management of a nur-

these sturdy folk hitch themselves to

Last Monday morning before Z

Wilkes Barre, Dec. 10.-The Times
this evening gives the following ac-
count of the attempts at suicide made
by a young citizen who has been Tilted
by a pretty girl:
Gilbert Hatfield, a young man of 2l
years, tried, to end his life last night
by taking q large dose of rough on
rats. He attempted the rash deed be-
cause the young girl whom he loved
refused to have anything further to
do with him. Hatfield is a well known
young painter, 81 years old, and living
with his sister, Mrs. John Hall, on
Hunts alley. He paid marked attcn-
ticn to Mary McAdara, pretty young
girl of the same age, who was do
mCStiC i'm a River street family.
The girls friends did not like Hat
field ana the girl finally refused to have
anything more to do with him. This
so preyed on the young fellows mind
that he threatened to kill himself If she
went back on him. He called to see
the girl at her aunt's home on Jack
son street last evening and she refused
10 receive his attention. He said he
would kill himself in her presence and
took a razor from his pocket and drew
it across his throat. The girl knocked
the weapon from his hand when he
made only a slight cash.
Hatfield then came down town,
bought a box of rat poison and swal-
lowed the contents, enough to kill siX
men. He then notified the police and
was placed in the station house and
DIR. Gest summoned. The doctor
worked with him from midnight until
3 o'clock this morning and succeeded in
saving his life.
The foolish lovelorn youth is still
quite sick, but during the morning
asked that the girl be sent for. He
said they were engaged to be married,
but that her friends objected.
The girl was seen at her aunt's home
on Jackson street. She is a pretty,
modest young lady and feels keenly
the nOtOriety given her by the rash act
of Hatfield. She says they were not
engaged and that she was forced to
keep company with him because of his
threats to kill himself She refused to
go to see him and said she would have
nothing more to do with him. The
young lady is of a respectable family,
all of whom deplore her connection with
the case.

Hawley, Dec. 10-Augustus, the 10
year old son of Augustus Wegge, met
his death in a most shocking and pecu-

several duties on the farm. one of the
boys. on returning about II o'clock, ac-
Cumpanied by a neighbor, and found
little Gussie hanging from a roller

put his head in the roller towel and
started to turn around the towel. tight
ening around his neck, and before he
realized what he was doing he began
to strange and was rendered power
less to eXtricate himself.
