HENRY HARRISON, an old resident of the Bushwick section, died at
his home, 205 Sixth avenue, from paralysis resulting from a fall
received two weeks ago. Funeral services will be held to-morrow
morning at his late residence, the Rev. L.M. NELSON, rabbi of
Temple Israel, will officiate. Interment will be made in the family
plot at Greenwood Cemetery. Mr. HARRISON was born in Germany and
educated at Lincoln, England, and finished a classical course in
Germany. In 1833, he came to this country and in 1848 he established
a jewelry business at 21 Maiden lane, Manhattan. From there he went
to 14 John street and later to 66 Nassau street. In 1885 he had a
stroke of apoplaxy, which incapacitated him for four years, after
which he returned to business as a manufacturer of silverware at
62 John street, under the firm name of J.J.DAWSON and Co.
Mr. HARRISON retired in 1895. He was a Mason and a frequenter of
Prospect Park, where he was known and dearly loved by all the children.
His wife, Fannie, daughter of Abraham COHEN, of Lincoln, England,
died Aug. 14, 1903. Two daughters, Miss Julia HARRISON and
Mrs. Rachel H. BISSELL, and three sons, Maurice H.,
Nathan and Louis, survive him.
CHARLES KINKEN, a millionaire and one of the best known men of the
Eastern District, died suddenly at his home, 392 Humboldt street,
on Sunday. He was born in Hanover, Germany and came to this country
when seventeen years old. He was apprenticed to a carpenter and when
still a young man went into the building business for himself. He built
many houses and tenements and at the time of his death owned more than
fifty pieces of property in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens Borough.
Mr. KINKEN was a very charitable man and was never known to dispossess
a worthy family when they suffered misfortune, no matter how much they
were in arrears in their rent. Some of his tenants lived in his houses
more than forty years. Mr. KINKEN moved from Manhattan to this borough
in 1873 and from then he resided in the house in which he died. He was
a very quiet man and no one who did not know him intimately would suspect
that he was worth fully a million dollars. His wife Annie died two years
ago. He is survived by his son, James W., and one daughter, Mrs. Anna J. DOYLE,
and two grandchildren. The funeral will be held on Thursday morning at 9:30,
from the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Leonard and Maujer streets,
to which Mr. KINKEN was a large contriibutor. Interment will be in
Calvary Cemetery. Undertaker Fred RONMIELL, of 706 Grand street, will
have charge of the arrangements.
MRS. SARAH M. VINING, wife of Clarence H. VINING, died at her home,
5002 Fifth avenue, on Sunday after a brief illness. The cause of death
was apoplexy. She was born at Portland, Me., for forty-five years and
resided in South Brooklyn for ten years. Funeral services will be held
from her late home to-morrow evening, the Rev. Dr. ACKLEY, pastor of the
Fourth Avenue Episcopal Church, Fourth avenue and Fiftieth street,
officiating. The remains will be sent to Portland, Me., on Thursday morning,
where the interment will be made. Undertaker George HARRIS, of Forty-ninth st
and Third avenue has charge of the funeral arrangements.

calendar for trial next Friday.

Rachel MARTENSE, Centenarian, Dead
Had been in poor health for some time-died this morning.
Of Old Long Island Family
Celebrated 104th birthday eleven days ago.
In the presence of her two attendance who have been with her for several
months, Miss Rachel MARTENSE, the oldest woman on Long Island, passed away at
her home, 38 Linden avenue, Flatbush, at 10:15 o'clock this morning.Although
she had ben falling in health for some time past her death came as a
surprise. Her nephew, Joseph STORY, with whom she had resided, was at
business in Manhattan when she died.
Miss Martense was the daughter of the late Adrian L. Martense, a Flatbush
farmer. She as born on February 3, 1801 at the old Martenses homestead at
Church avenue and Gowanus lane. She resided there until 1868 when she took
up her residence in the old STORY homestead, which was situated at Linden and
Flatbush avenues, with her sister Marie, who was the wife of Captain William
STORY. Mrs Story died at the age of 90 years, and Mis Martense continued to
reside at the Story homestead with her nephew, Joseph Story, until a year ago
when the Story homestead was torn down to make way for the new Flatbush Trust
Company building. She then moved to 38 Linden avenue, another house owned by
he Story family, where she lived until her death. She enjoyed excellant
health until fourteen years ago, when she fell and injured her hip, which
prevented her from getting around without assistance.
She ws a member of the Flatbush Reformed Dutch Church, and in her younger
days was quite active in church work. She always lived a quiet life and
attributed her great age to regular hours and plain living. She was quite an
artist, and her home was adorned with many pictures which she painted and
beautiful rugs, chair covers, screens and pillows, which she made and
embroidered. She always had a deep interest in philanthrophy, which led her
until recent years to work for the poor. Up until her illness she took an
active interest in what as going on around her and enjoyed having the daily
papers read to her. She was very proud of her great age and for several years
past had held a reception on her birthday...
Miss Martense was descended from one of the oldest families of Long Island.
Her ancestors came to this country in 1641.
The only near relative surviving her are three nephews, William, Martense and
Joseph Story, all of whom reside in Flatbush..

FATHER THINKS THE SHOOTING WAS AN ACCIDENT - STORY OF LOVE AFFAIR
[surname of the female is spelled two ways in article]
William SMITH, 17 years old, of 39 Walnut avenue, Corona, who shot
Alice OHLSON, 16 years old, of 38 High street, Corona, Saturday
night, was arrested to-day at the home of his cousin in Woodside,
Queens, by Detective Sergeants REEDY and GRAHAM. The police,
suspecting that the boy may have committed suicide, yesterday scoured
the woods around Corona.
It has not yet been established whether the shooting was accidental.
The boy was known to be in love with the girl and it is said that
although she felt friendly toward him she did not encourage his
attentions. The father of the boy says he thinks his son may have
threatened the girl with the revolver and that it was discharged
accidentally, but he is sure that his son did not shoot the girl
purposely.
Young SMITH and Miss OHLSEN were pupils in the Corona High School.
Much against her will, it is said, SMITH, escorted Miss OHLSEN to her
home Saturday night, and on leaving remarked: "Alice, this is the
last time you will ever see me." He called again at the OHLSEN home
shortly afterward, and while talking to Miss OHLSEN the shooting
occurred. Then SMITH disappeared.
The bullet lodged in Miss OHLSEN's breast, inflicting a superficial
wound. She is at the Post Graduate Hospital, Manhattan.
In the Flushing police court SMITH protested that his mind was a
blank as to what had occurred on Saturday night and that he awoke
last night to find himself lying in a wagon in Port Washington. He
started to walk to his home in Corona, and got as far as Woodside
when he was arrested.
Magistrate CONNORTON paroled him in the charge of his father until Wednesday.
After his release SMITH admitted that the pistol was discharged while
he was with Miss OHLSEN, but he denied that he shot her intentionally.
Miss OHLSEN is the daughter of a Swedish minister, who is now in New England.

List of Drowned Unusually Long
Two boys, Peter MARTIN, 17 years old of
494 Fourth Avenue, and Frank SHAUGHNESSY, 16 years old, of 483 Fourth Ave.
were drowned in the bay of Fifty-eighth Street, South Brooklyn, yesterday. A
third boy, John DUFFY, 15 years old, of 494 Fourth Avenue, in trying to
rescue his companions, narrowly escaped a similar fate.
After Sunday School, the boys went to Stein's beach, where they hired bathing
suits and a rowboat and left the shore.
Shaughnessy dived from the boat and Martin losing his balance fell in the
water. Unable to swim Martin seized his companion, and there ensued a
desperate struggle, both went down as Ernest BERGMAN a lifesaver at the
beach, and three others swam to the spot where the two boys disappeared.
Shaughnessy body came up and was
seized by Bergman but that of Martin was not recovered for some time. The
drowning was witnessed by several hundred excited persons who lined the shore.
In sight of his two brothers, who vainly tried to save him
Samuel WESENBERG, 15 years old of 113 Norfolk Street, was
drowned in the afternoon In Jamaica Bay. In a channel off Barrren Island,
Samuel with his brothers, Bernard, 18 years old and David. 20 years old, went
out in a boat for a day's sport, and decided to go in swimming together.
Samuel, was the first to dive overboard. After
swimming about for a few moments, he sank. His brothers thought
he was playing a prank and did not attempt to go to his assistance until he
sank the second time. They were too late, as the body did not come up after
second time. Several fishing parties and launches responded to the brothers
cries for help and unsuccessfully grappled for the body.
In sight of thousands of persons in sailing craft and along the beach of
Jamaica Bay, yesterday afternoon, a rowboat containing John HOFFMAN, of 401
Bushwick Avenue, his wife, Emily, and their
two year-old daughter Violet, was run down and capsized by an auxiliary sloop
of the Canarsie shore. Mrs. Hoffman clung to her child. Hoffman managed his
wife by the hair. With his other hand he clung to the overturned boat, cries
went up from the watchers. A score of boats put about and steered for the
point. William WRIGBY, in a
launch was the first to reach the overturned boat. Diving from his launch,
he assisted Hoffman in supporting the woman and her baby until ropes were
thrown to them from other craft. The great crowd of watchers cheered with
satisfaction at the rescuers.
John GILMARTIN, 21 years old, was drowned in the East River during the
afternoon. A thousand or more bathers at the Classon Points Baths witnessed
the accident. Gilmartin, with two companions, Charles KENNEDY, of 941
Jackson Avenue, the Bronx, and James MURPHY of 1120 Boston Road, went out in
a catboat. Gilmartin could not swim, but he dived from the boat, he sank. When
he came to the surface he saw his two companions struggling to reach him. No
sooner had Kennedy reached Gilmartin the frantic man, locked both arms
around his would be rescuers neck and hung on. Though he struggled with
all his might, Kennedy could not break the grip.
By this time the struggle had attracted the attention of everybody on shore
and two boats had started out as soon as Murphy succeeded in separating
Gilmartin and Kennedy, Gilmartin sank. Kennedy by this time was nearly
tired out and became near drowning Murphy. After a hard struggle
Murphy managed to pull Kennedy to the side of boat. Gilmartin's body
has not been recovered.
Guille GANETTA, an Italian, of 54 East Twenty-fifth Street, Manhattan, was
drowned at South Beach in full view of two thousand persons yesterday.
After eating a hearty dinner Ganetta went in bathing. He had been in
the water only a short time, when he was seized with
cramps and before his friends could reach him he was drowned.
While playing at the foot of East Fourteenth Street, Manhattan, yesterday
Julia AWE, 10 years old, of 16 Dry Dock Street, slipped between the end of
the pier and a barge and fell in the water. Several minutes passed before the
child's predicament was discovered and then it was too late to save her.
What is supposed to be the body of a Brooklyn man was found late afternoon by
William STARK, a fisherman, off the long dock at Stapleton, S. I. Stark
notified Coroner SCHAEFFER, who took charge of the body, a silver watch and
chain was found in one of the pockets, and also a letter addresses in
Norwegian to Theodore JOHANSEN, who lives on Twentieth Street, South Brooklyn.
The man appeared to be about 35 years old, five feet ten inches tall, wore a
blonde mustache, and was dressed in black.
Some of the fishermen claimed that the man was captain of the stone-laden
barge Victoria. There were several contusions of the head and face that might
have been caused by an instrument or by floating objects.
