The oldest resident Of the little town
OF Woodbury.. y. j., cannot remember
that the population was ever before in
such a fcrmcnt ne has been caused by
the separation suit which Mrs. Dor
othy A. Triplctt has brought in New
York against the Rev. J. Edwin Trip
lett, ir. pastor of the Presbyterian
church of Woodbury.. The matrI-
monial troubles of the couple have
divided the congregation. from mem
bers Of which both husband and wife
have obtained affidayits to support the
charges against each other.
Mrs. Triplett alleges numerous acts
Of cruelty, including Mr.. Tripletts at
tempt TO Kill her by throwing her
downstairs. The clergyman blamcs his
wifc's mother for the present state OF
affairs. and he has presented an AFT
dayit from the fourth husband Of his
uothcr-in-law, who swcars that his
wife is addicted to liquor and also
smokes cigars and cigarettes.
Henry V. Rogers, a trustee OF the
church in Woodbury., furnished an aft
davit, in which he said he heard Mrs.
Triplett say she was tired of being the
wife Of minister, and that she could
not 20 out in the street without at
tracing the attention Of the "goody-
goody" folk OF Woodbury.. Mrs. Trip
let's mother also alleges that the min
lister beat her.
Mrs. Triplett is now living with her
mother. Mrs. Dora VI. Nelson, at 30
Wadswortn av., Manhattan. The Su-
prcme Court has awarded her S25 a
week alimony pending the trial Of hcc
suit. Mr. Triplett was formerly pas
tor &C the Bedford Park church. in this
city. and resigned after his arrest on .!
charge OF criminal libel brought by a
woman member OF his congregation.
Mr.. Triplctt said his mother-in-aw
threatened 10 separate him from his
wife or drive him from the pulpit. He
said Mrs. Nelson also threatened to
disinherit her daughter unless she left
her husband. lie charges his wife and
her mother with a conspiracy to ruin
him By circulating stories about him
which he said were investigated and
disproved He also charges that his
wife called him "a hypocrite' and "a
darned old rascal
Mr. Rogers said, in part, in his
affidavit: 81 heard Mrs. Triplett say
she wanted to chuck the whole bust
ness and be clear Of the dear old ladies
at the missionary meetings. She ridi-
culed the people OF ner husbands
church and said they had straitlaced
habits, and that if her husband was
anv good he would be in a place worth
while and not in a one-horse town like
Woodbury.
John II. Nelson, Of Herkimer, y. Y,
the fourth husband Of Mrs. Triplett's
mother. left his wife year after they
were married. "She would bring enor-
nous quantities of drink into the
house" said Nelson, "and have long
sprees, and then be ugly and abusive"
Mrs. Triplett said she was frequently
confined to her bed by the bestings sd.
ministered by her husband. She said
her mother helped save Mr. Triplett's
good name when he was charged with
criminal libel.

dresser drawer. He raised it and, with
mock seriousness, aimed II At his
young friend and pulled the trigger.
He toppled in a faint when he heard
q report and saw Peter fall from a
bullet that pierced his left chest and
reached his heart.
When Rudolph, recovering later, saw
his chum lying motionless, he ran
shrieking down the stairs and alarmed
Mrs. Katherine Krsemer. Then he ran
out on the sidewalk, screamed that he
had shot his best friend and dashed
back TO the room.
He brushed by Mrs. Krsemer and
knelt beside young Fulmer, who was
still alive. Believing Peter dead, Bret
derbach pressed the revolver against
his right temple, but before he could
fire Mrs. Kraemer kicked It from his
hand.
Fulmer died as an ambulance sur
geon arrived. A detective took BREEDER
bach to the Greenpoint az. police sta

2AND LEADERS, LAST BOW
Benjamin Wechsler Falls Dead
as He Statutes Audience.

While 5000 people applauded his
musicians in Fort Greene Park, Brook
Ign, yesterday afternoon, Benjamin
Wechsler's responsive bow became a
death fall, as he toppled over and lay
on the floor of the stand near the con
ductor's platform. An early diagnosis
gave as the cause Of death heart dis
ease. from which the leader had suf-
fered, though there were strong symp-
toms OF apopleIy.

musician lived at 445 Gold st. His
popularity and the beauty OF the Sun
day afternoon attracted crowd that

1000 seating capacity Of the benches
around the Dsndstand.
As Ny Nechsler fell over on his
face and rolled away from the plat

the cornet soloist, Samuel Finkelstein,
jumped 20 his feet and started the
strains of selection which he often
plays, accompanied by the band.
The park police, fearing that the

Police Called to Guard
Evening Service.

They arc at il again in the Mari
ner's Harbor Baptist Church, on Staten
Island.
Prior to his sermon at yesterday

some Of the descons by holding up mis-
pay since June 10, when he handed in
mis- resignation, to become effective on
August 30, had deprived him Of the
necessities Of life.
The service ended. Mr.. Dejoy started
for the door TO shake hands with his
flock. Then Ralph Van Name, ste
nographer for President McAneny of
the Board Of Aldermen, choirmaster
and deacon, went TO the platform and
said that the pastor had misrepresent-
cd the situation Whereupon, Norton
o. Jones, a deacon in sympathy with
Ar. Dejoy. said that Van Name was
trying TO run the church.
About three seconds later Mr. Van
Names right fist moved around TO Mr..
Jones's Jaw. There we're no more
blows. but there was quantity of Ian
guage, Van Name saying that Jones
had called Mrs. Van Name. who had
slipped into the conversation, a liar,
and Jones saying Mrs. Van Name had
called him liar.
This turn came about the time that
everybody was out OF the church, so
nothing more was done there. The po-
lice were requested, however, 20 have
patroimen on hand for the service last
evening TO see that no fighting occurred
in the church
When TWO policemen reported Jones
tried 20 nave Van Name arrested. but
the policeman said they could do moth
