A YORK COUNTY ROMANCE.
THE recent death of TaulKunUle In
York, at the age of 70 yeas, recall
to mind the hlBtory of a tragedy which
at the time created much Interest there
nud In Maryland, and of which he
nearly proved to be a victim. The cir
cumstance)), n gathered from his eon
and neighbors who have known him
for the past forty years, are as follows !
About thirty years ago Faul Kunkle
accompanied his brother to Dalllmore,
whence the latter was to sail for the
home of his nativity In Germany. Hav
ing seen him off Mr. Kunkle started on
foot for his home In York, carrying
with him an old umbrella. "With him
was a companion, who left him at Coo
keysvllle, Intending there to take the
train and ride to Glen Hock,hlB destina
tion, having become tired of footing It.
Kunkle kept on his way on foot, and at
Tarktou met a stranger, with whom a
conversation wbb begun, which finally
ended lu an exchange of umbrellas, the
stranger giving a much better one than
that which he received. Together the
two men then kept on their way until
York was finally reached, and the
stranger, who gave his name as Conrad
Winter, persuaded Kunkle to receive
him at his home. Winter remained
with the Kunkles for several days and
had with him a number of articles,
which he endeavored to give or sell to
the family. He offered a pair of ladles'
Bhoes in exchange for one of Kunkle's
shirts, and the bargain being a good one,
as the shoes were quite new, It was
accepted, lie offered a cap to one of
the boys, but It being too large, was told
to keep It, and also presented a hand
some snuff-box to one of the children,
which was likewise declined, on the
plea that the child had no use of It. On
the first morning of his arrival he stated
that a murder had been committed In
Maryland, and that the murderer had
not been caught. Soon after his de
parture it was learned that a murder
had been committed hear Tarkton on
the morning on which Kunkle had been
seen in the place, and detectives, who
were already on the trail, traced Kun
kle to his home, where the umbrella
and the pair of new shoes were. Identi
fied as the property of a Mrs. Cooper,
the victim. He was at once arrested
and thrown in jail at York, where he
was kept several months, being finally
taken to Baltimore. Mrs. Kunkle about
that time gave birth to a child. Paul
Kunkle, under the weight of trouble,
became insane, or at least his reason
was bo unsettled that he could not give
a lucid explanation of how the things
had come into his possession or from
whom he had obtained them. A true
bill was found against him, and several '
trials were had, which resulted in his
conviction and sentence to death. The
period of his confinement in the Balti
more prison was about ten months,
during which time every effort was
made to establish his innocence. Ac
quaintances from York testified to his
uniform good conduct, but the circum
stantial evidence of his being in the
vicinity at the fatal time, and the pos
sesslon'of the articles, was too grave to
be overthrown. Being a Roman Cath
olic, the Bishop of Philadelphia took
great Interest in his case, visiting him
in his prison at York, and, It la under
stood, In Baltimore also. Finally, about
eight days before the time fixed for the
execution, his mind became clear, and
he was able to explain his leaving Balti
more with one man and his meeting
with the other, with whom he exchang
ed umbrellas, and described them both.
Officers of the law were put upon the
track, and before long the man with
whom he left Baltimore was found,
who, strange to say, shortly after part
ing with Kunkle, had met with Winter,
and had seen the umbrella, shoes and
other articles. Winter's appearance
was described, tallying with that given
by Kunkle, and once more the officers
were successful in their search, Winter
betraying himself by one of those slight
actions which so often lead to the arrest
of criminals when they feel the safest.
During all this time Winter, who was
a blacksmith, had kept in his possession
the stolen snuffbox, and one day, while
at work at Ashland, pulled it from bis
pocket and handed it to a fellow-workman,
who wished a pinch of its con
tents. This workman discovered what
the murderer never bad, that the name
of Mrs. Cooper was engraved upon a
silver plate within the box. Being
tamillar with the incident, he at once
informed an officer, who made . the ar
rest, and upon trial Winter was convict
ed and condemned. Paul Kunkle was
saved.
Upon the scaffold Conrad Winter con
fessed his guilt,stating that when young
he had been bound to a Mrs. Goodwin,
residing near Parkton, who had com
pelled him to steal sheep for her benefit.
Upon one or lis expeditious lae was
captured and sent to the Penitentiary
for Lis onense, and while there swore
his revenge upon his mistress should be
her death when he was released. Upon
the evening of the murder he was walk
ing along the road swinging a light
switch, when before him he saw a
woman whom he took to be Mrs. Oood
win. Sel.lng a stone, a heavy blow
crushed her skull and she fell dead.
Upon turning her over and seeing her
face he found he had killed the wrong
woman, It being Mrs. Cooper. Drawing
her to a fence corner he covered hex
with brush, took possession of the shoes
she had Just purchased from the store,
with the other articles, and made his
escape, meeting with Kunkle and cast
lng suspicion upon him as stated. Mr.
Kunkle has lived to a good old age in
the community, respected by all, the
dark cloud of suspicion once resting
upou him having been happily cleared
away.
Some Leading Questions.
A YOUNG man who looked as if he
had a heap of things on his mind,
but who struggled hard to appear out
wardly calm, put a five-dollar bill on the
desk of a Detroit lawyer the other day,
and said :
" I want to ask you a few leading
questions."
" Go ahead," was the reply, as the
money was quickly thrust out of sight.
" If I am engaged to a girl, and I go
back on her, what can she do V
" Sue for breach of promise."
" But if she goes back on me, what
can I do r""
" Hunt up another."
" Um 1 Suppose I have presented her
with a $2 fan, a pair of bracelets, a par
asol and a ring V"
" Then she's so much ahead."
" If I believe that her infatuation for
another is but a passing whim, and I
flourish a revolver and talk of suicide,
what then?"
" Her father will probably pick you
up and drop you into the first mud-
puddle."
" Uml Suppose I had presented her
mother with a twenty-shilling um
brella?" " Then she'll keep dry."
"And her brother with an accord-
eon?"
" Then he'll worry the neighbors."
" Suppose, sir, I had, for the sake of
making myself solid with the old man
presented bim with sixteen dollars'
worth of watchdog ?"
" He'll set him upou you if you give
any trouble."
" Um I Have I no redress ?"
" Yes sir, go and lick the prairie
ranger who has stolen away your girl's
affections."
" I'll do it I"
"Glad to hear it. I'll defend your
case for $20."
"Um!"
"Uml"
" Come to think of it, he is a bigger
man than I am."
" Then let him lick you, and I'll
make it cost him $50."
"Uml I'll think of it."
" Um I TOlflce hours from 8 A. M., to
8 P. M.
And the young man troubled with
inward agitation took himself out.
How Me Was Beaten.
This is how a designing and unscru
pulous rascal out west got a wife :
A girl who had been corresponding
with a festive old bachelor of Modoc,
California, accepted his offer to pay
her traveling expenses and marry her
if she would come out there. She start
ed, and when she got to Iteno, Nevada,
she lay over and rested a day . or two.
While stopping she met a nice young
man, who began to pour big lies into
her ear about Modoo county. She was
told that the elevated portion of the
county was burled under snow and the
lowlands were deep under water ; that
flour and sugar there were none, and
when the sun sets the natives go to bed
on account of not having lights. She
began to get scared out of the idea of
continuing her trip, and the cunning
fellow saw it, and proposed that she
marry bim. She did so, and there is
now a mad old bachelor in Modoc
county, California.
Not Prepared.
" Are you prepared for death?" the
clergyman asked, with a tremor of emo
tion in his voice as he took the sick
woman's hand in his own. A shade of
patient thought crossed the Invalid's
face, and by-an-by she said, " she
didn't hardly believe she was; there
was the little bedroom carpet to be taken
up yet, and the paint up stairs had
hardly been touched, and she did want
to put up new curtains in the dining
room ; but she thought if she didn't
die until next Monday, she would be
about as near ready as a woman with a
big family and no girl, ever expected
to be." ' ...
P, S. That woman got well.
C3"He is not only idle who does noth
ing, but he is idle who might be better
employed.
SUNDAY HEADING
The Prevailing Habit of Swearing.
It may be a grievous truth, but It is
true says a New York paper, that very
many men and women are addicted to
the use of expletives, some of which are
profane, some simply silly, some In bad
taste, some meaningless, and all un
necessary if you criticize them closely.
Many men use oaths that are terrible in
their Intensity and bitterness, and yet
their utterers have no feelings which
need such language. They will con
demn people to everlasting torment,
curse their eyes, and call down the
direst Judgments of heaven on persons
who cause them slight annoyance, aud
when anything goes wrong with them
they will curse and swear like pirates;
and yet really they would do no man
any harm, and as to sending any man's
soul to hell, their lives would be misera
ble If they thought they had done it.
It Is plain, therefore, that swearing
generally Is only a bad habit into which
men fall, and it by no means indicates
that they are profane In their thoughts
or disposed to arrogate to themselves
the divine function of passing eternal
judgment on their fellows. The excla
mations expressive of wonder or delight
or Indignation, which women so freely
use, and which serve the purposes of a
safety valve to relieve their feelings, and
the darns and gollys of the boys are, in
their essence, about the same. Of course
It Is foolish to use them, and their em
ployment Is in bRd taste. They do not
strengthen the speech, for they have
lost any real meaning ; their free and
careless u&e has destroyed the force they
may once have had. If men always
had at their tongues' end the fit words
to express their ideas and feellDgs, they
probably would not swear so much.
But when the right word doesn't come
easily, an oath is handy for emphasis.
This is about all there Is in swearing.
It can't be defended for it is a bad
habit; and oaths, beyond question,
greatly disfigure speech, which is most
effective when it is the calmest and
simplest. Yet that men took to swear
ing in a very early period of develop,
ment is probably unquestionable; and
that they have gone on In the practice,
however civilized they have become, is
a truth everybody's experience sustains.
Christians, or those who nominally
profess to be Christians, often swear as
much as heathens, and probably there
was more swearing before our era than
there Is now. We have even retained
some of the pagan oaths In their exact
form, and to others we have given new
forms learned under Christianity, we
have manufactured for ourselves an
original supply.
Tribute to a Mother.
Children, look in those eyes, listen to
that dear voice, notice the feeling of
even a single touch that is bestowed
upon you by her gentle hand I Make
much of it while you have that most
precious of all gifts, a loving mother.
Bead the unfathomed love of those eyes ;
the kind anxiety of that tone and look,
however slight your pain. In after lifo
you may have friends fond, dear
friends but never will you have again
the inexpressible love and gentleness
lavished upon you, which none but a
gentle mother bestows. Often do I sigh,
in my struggles with the dark, uncaring
world, for the sweet,, deep security I
felt, when, of an evening, nestling in
her bosom, I listened to some quiet tale,
suitable to my age, read in her tender,.
untiring voice. Never can I forget her
sweet glance cast upon me when I
appeared asleep; never her kiss of peace
at night. Years have passed away since
we laid her beside my father in the old
church-yard ; and still her voice whis
pers from the grave.and her eye watches
over me, as I visit spots long since
hallowed to the memory of my mother.
Words of Wisdom.
Let men laugh when you sacrifice
desire to duty, if they will. You have
time and eternity to rejoice in.
A work of art is said to be perfect in
proportion as It does not remind the
spectator of the process by which It was
created.
There is nothing more disgraceful
than that an old man should have noth
ing to produce, as a proof that he has
lived long, except his years.
To feel much for others and little for
ourselves, to restrain our selfish and to
indulge our benevolent affections, con
stitute the perfection of human nature.
Man, being essentially active, must
find In activity his joy as well as his
beauty and glory ; and labor, like every
thing else that is good, is its own
reward.
(HTWithout earnestness no man is
ever great, or does really great . things.
He may be the cleverest of ineu ; and he
may be brilliant, entertaining, popular,
but he will want weight. No bquI
movlDg picture was ever painted that
had not in it the depth of a shadow. .
