ncy entered the carpenters trade. He
Is n man of exemplary character. He
was energetic and faithful in business
life and of type of hardy manhood
which seems to carry the burden OF

not imperceptably. Although he gave
nevertheless active in his home life and
the many duties which he accepted and
pCrsiStcntiy retained.
Mrs. Varney has not enjoyed good
health for some time, but has been
nevertheless cheerful. 1t is Il matter
of much qualification to their children
that their lives have been spared to the
realization and completion of so years
of happy welded life.
They have five children: Joseph f.

and George of this city and Rev. Will

WOUND is SLIGHT.
Mrs. Kate O'Brien Held by Police at
Clinton, Mass.

Clinton, Mass, June 12.-Mrs. Kate
O'Brien, aged 81, was arrested, this af-
ternoon, charged with an attempt to
murder VIM. J. McRell. The latter
was shot through the hand, but the
wound is a slight one.
The woman had been for a number Of
years employed in the weave room of
the Clinton Wire Cloth Cos. mill
where McRell is a second hand. This
morning, she was discharged for I'M
satisfactory work, and, going home af-
ter dinner, she secured her husbands
revolver with which she returned to
the mill. Calling McRell out of the
mill they cOnversed for moment when
she suddenly drew the revolver and
aiming at his head, fired. McRell saw
the movement and threw up his hands,
the bullet passing through one of them.
Mrs. O'Brien claims that McRells
prosecutions melted her to the deed;
that her pay had been locked; that she
had been given bad looms to run and
that his prosecutions had taken other
forms, until matters had reached a
climax in her discharge, today.
