Mr.. Frisbie's Prayer for Rain.

Francis Dodge Of Danvers, Mass.
relates the following: Many years ago,
when Mr.. Frisbie was minister of the
congregational church in Ipswich,
there has been a great drought. Rain
had not fallen for many days, and the
crops were in danger of being ruined.
The farmers besieged the worthy pas.
tor Sunday morning to ask for rain,
and he did so in the following man.
ner:
% Lord! give us rain; give us rain,
not in foods and freshets, but simply
frizzle, drizzle, drizzle."

WOULDN'T
\. BLAME Wife
FOR WOUND

New York, June 23.--As a result OF a
midnight quarrel between husband and
wife, Edward f. Crane. furniture
mover, living at Js Williams street, East
New York, is lying in the Bradford Street
hospital with bullet in his skull.
His wife. Nelly. Is prisoner without
bail in the Raymond Street jail charged
with having shot him as he lay In bed.
The police are making little progress In
unravelling the mysterious case without
help from the dangerously wounded man
or from the woman.
Crane. who is q years old, married his
wife five years ago. She Is more tnan u
years older than he. Mrs. Crane had Just
lost her second husband when she mar
ried Crane and she had inherited about
$4,000 from her father.
The money Crane is said TO have dis
sipated long ago Last January their
child was buried in Potter's Field. Crane
was arrested three weeks ago for nom
support and a week ago he was released
on his promise 10 provide for his wife.
The Cranes rented a furnished room a
week ago from a Mrs. Ferris at the VIII
liams street address.
Mrs. Crane visited a Mrs. Happ at l20
williams street on Tuesday afternoon and
returned home at o. CLOCK. fter nusDdnu
had not come home, and she went out
again.
Crane got home at 10 o'clock and went
to bed. Shortly after midnight his wife
returned. Half an hour later Mrs Fer
ris. in a room below heard a shot and
ran upstairs. AS she entered the room
she saw Crane throw revolver out of
the window.
Mrs. Crane. partially dressed was sit
ting on the bed, where she had evidently
extingiished a fame which had burned
one OF the pillow cases. Husband and
wife were calling one another names
Policeman Herbert Greene. who had
heard the shot, arrived below the window
Just in time TO be struck by the re-
vover. AS soon as Crane saw him, he re-
fused TO talk.
According to Mrs. Ferris. he had said
that his wife had shot him as he lay in
bed, and later that the pistol. which was
always kept under his pillow, had been
discharged accidentally. To the police he
said he remembered little of the shoot
ing
"Let my wife tell the story" he said
81 make no accusation against anybody. ."
There was a scuffle and the pistol
went off accidentally" was all the woman
would say.
The police theory is that there was a
quarrel, that the pistol was dragged from
under the pillow by one or the other and
that in a scuffle for possession Of It the
weapon was discharged.
