the rain beat ragtime wedding march

united in wedlock at his home, at two
O'clock this morning, couple describing
themselves as James Lynch, aged TWEEN
ty-six years, of Greenville, and Dorothea
Montgomery, aged nineteen years, of
this city.
The couple found it difficult to awak-
en- the justice, as he is very sound
sleeper. The excuse they gave for call
ing at so unseemly an hour was that they
could not arrange affairs for any other
time. The justice tied the knot in good
style and sent the couple ON their way re-
joicing. Mr.. and Mrs. Lynch will live
at Greenyille.

WOMEN IN BOTH CASES

August Rosenplanta, waiter, thirty
six years old, ended his life at his board
ing house, No. SOB Washington street,
Hoboken, yesterday afternoon, by inhal
ing gas through tube.
Rosenplanta returned home from work
yesterday morning feeling very de-
spondent. When his boarding mistress.
Mrs. HI. CRUDE, asked him what allied
him, he said he was tired of life.
Everything is going against me of
late" he said. "AIy girls gone back on
me, my friends are unfaithful and my
whole existence is dismal
He refused to be comforted and went
to his room saying that he was born to
be unhappy. Six hours later the odor
of gas in the house became so strong
that the woman became alarmed and
had the door of the boarder's room
broken open. Rosenplata was found
dead in bed with his lifeless fingers
clutching a lead pencil. He evidently
intended leaving a message behind, as
batch of paper was strewn over the
floor.
CARB0LIC ACID.
Ten minutes after the body had been
removed to the Morgue word reached
Police Headquarters that Edward Kear-
ney, twenty-nine years old, had attempt
ed to kill himself in the Riverwalk by
drinking carbolic acid
Kearney is employed in a limekiln as
a teamster. He quarreled with his wife
Sunday and she left their home, at No.
81 Monroe street, with her eleven
months-old baby. Kearney told sympa-
thising tenants that she had threatened
to commit suicide, and said he guessed
he had better do the thing himself and
save her the trouble.
He was found writing in his truck
by employees of the kiln, who summoned
the police ambulance. Kearney was TAX
en- to st. Mary's Hospital and resusc-
tated He was then locked up.
