THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON 80: METHODS OF SUICIDE. Eccentric Ways and Odd Reasons for Quitting the World. ESTERESTING DEDUCTIONS FROM STATISTICS—AGE FOR SELF-MURDER — PREDISPOSING CATSES— SUICIDES FROM THE COLUMN VENDOME. From the Philadelphis Telegraph. I wonder if there is any country in the world where suicide is accomplished with the same calm resolution that it is in France, and also in such eccentric ways and for such odd reasons. For instance, I have heard lately of a man who killed himself because he had stolen a pair of socks, and was oppressed by remorse for the theft. One would imagine that a more practi- cal way of proving his repentance would have been for him to have saved up his earnings to pay for the purloined articles. In another in- stance « man hung himself because one of his comrades owed him 10 cents and would not pay hisa, and he was in consequence tired of life. A male patient, suffering from a very painful disorder in one of the Paris hospitals, contrived to secrete a sharp knife under his bedclothes, and literally commitied hari-kari. Not long ago a husband and wife. finding themselves in the last stages of consumption, and perceiving that their four children were all threatened with the same malady, hired a horse and carriage, the mother and children cceupying the vehicle while the husband drove. He made straight for a deep and rapid river near his home and drove the horse head- jong into it, so that the whole party were drowned. The unhappy parents left behind them a declaration, which both had signed. setting forth the reasons which had impelled them to the desperate deed. A dissipated workman in Paris possessed a tame rabbit of which he was very fond, and which he had trained to execute & number of amusing tricks. People often tried to buy the little animal, but he always refused to part with it. Finally he was offered 360 for it, and the largeness of the sum overcame his fondness for his pet; so he let it go. He soon wasted the mouey in debauchery and riotous living, and then he hung himself, deciaring in writing, be- fore he committed the deed, that life was not worth the living since he no longer had his IT can better understand the action of a wretchedly poor old woman who shared her scanty meals and her miserable garret with » favorite di The animal died, aud his mis- tress spent her last savings fora pan of char- coal, for. as she piteously said, she had _no one left on earth to love or to love her, now that she had lost her dog. So she shut herself up and lighted her charcoal, and was found dead in her bed the next d. The scene divides with the rope and the asphyxiating fumes of charcoal the honors of popularity as a means of getting out of the world. ‘These are not so numerous or as easy to obtain in France as they are in England or America. No apothecary can sell a poisonous preparation of au} medium of a pbysiciau’s formal aud signed prescription. Laudanum, morphine and chlo- reform are not to be obtuined by the casual purchaser any more easily than are strychuine nic. ‘the only poisons within the reach would-be suicide are such as can be prep: is obtained by st ing the heads of matches im water, aud verdigris, made from copper coius by covering them with vinegar and letting them stand for some days. But both these poisons are slow in action and extremely painful in their effects, especially phosphorus, which canses death by aming the coats of the stomach and the intestines. The trouble about a suicide by charcoal lies in the fact that it is a dificult matter to make a room perfectl airtight, so as to rend and there is also the daa ;er of the odor being | noticed from withont, an | wip being rendered | to the intended victim before the death-dealing | recess is completed It is, however, a pain [ose fate. The self-slayer sinks into @ sound sleep, which deepens into insensibility, and from the sses into death. But of late this op favertte mode of suicide has been eglected in favor of hanging or of drowning. | Lhe official statistics of the suicidesin France during the past year are extremely curious to | examine. The cases amount to nearly 8,000 | for the whole republic. Of these the depart. ment in which Paris is situated comes in for nearly a fifth, though in proportion to its Bop: ation it ought to furnish only one-fifteenth. But the tife of the great cit: md its trials, its iuiverics, its deceptions, are fertile in providin; eanses for despair and self-murder. It would | ' | naturally be supposed that the gloomy months w of winter, with their cold. gray ather and short days, would be those in which unhappy people would the most readily quit the earth. Such is not the case. December is the month in which snicides are least frequent, and July is that which furnishes the greatest number. Can it be that the bustle and gayety of the weeks immediately preceding the holiday season produce a favorable effect on the mind- of those who are weighed down by cares aud woes that are rapidly assuming in-| tolerable proportions? Perhaps, too, the pos sibility of some amelioration arriving to the doleful lot of the sufferer, through the medium | of that time of gifts and generosity, may cause 4 postponement of the fatal hour. Rut why should midsummer, with its bright sunshine, | } nd its © be the season most c dueive to self-murder? That problem presents no reasonable means of solution. Yet nearly tw as Biany persons commit suicide in Jnl; asin December. It is possible that the calmly flowing river, warmed and brightened by the | summer sun, may tempt the wretched wanderer | to seek for rest and peace in the cool, tranquil depths: while, on the other hand, ‘the icy, muddy torrent of winter is repellant, the fumes effectual, } conditions of ex-} | collaberator. quiesced, and\he deliberately completed all his preparations, which ineluded oe dis- some tance in search of a priest, to whom he made | Experiences of the Elder Harrison and his last confession. Then he came back home, got his gun, and went out into the woods and shot himself. Avery sad instance was that of the young Viscount X——, who was playing with his first-born child. a spirited, active boy of some eight months old, at the open window of his suite of spartans, which was situated on the fourth floor. The baby, in the gayety and excitement of the sport, made a sudden spring, escaped from his father’s clasp, and fell res to the pavement of the court. The wretched parent gave one glance at the lifeless little form lying on the cruel stones below, and then turned from the window, took a loaded pistol from its case, and blew his brains out. poamaoscnen sri EDWIN BOOTH INDISPOSED. Lawrence Barrett Gets Excited and Makes a Misleading Speech. During the Booth-Barrett performance of “Othello” at Rochester, N. Y., last night, Ed- win Booth became indisposed, and at first it was thonght he had a stroke of paralysis, The performance was stopped and the audience was dismissed, Lawrence Barrett seems to have become excited by the misfortune of his He went before the curtain and in a voice choked with emotion made @ speech depicting Mr. Booth’s condition as much worse than it afterward proved to be. Mr. Barrett said: “Ladies and Gentlemen: I am called upon to perform the most painful duty of my life. My colleague has shown symptoms of breaking | down for three dr four days past, and his con- | dition is so serious that it is impossible for him to act. We bad hoped that he would raily from this attack and that he would be able to play his part to-night, but one of your physicians, | Dr. Sumner, says that it would be perilous for | him to attempt it.

As to the causes of suicide, | insanity, | whether incipient or declared, furnishes the | largest contin se. in. the suffer uz caused by agonizing and in- curable illness, comes next. Drunkenness also sapplies a large number of cases. But poverty aud disappointed love come lowest ou the list of predisposing causes, Tax mare att bakers, tht rope and the river are the most popular of all means of self- | slaughter. The pistol comes next, and then asphyxiation by charcoal. Comparatively few persons have recourse to knives or to poison, Some few leap from an elevated point, like the Are de Triomphe or the towers of Notre I ee Lustances are known of persous who have thrown themselves on the railway track in front of a passing train. Poison, for the reasons I have already stated. furnishes comparatively few victims. People have been known to drink themselves purposely to death, swallowing al- cohol in such great qnantities as to produce congestion of the braip. And last year one un- happy creature, a woman, deliberately starved herself to death. ‘The most dramatic case of suicide of which I have ever heard was one of which I was by chance the witness some years ago. Ona fine afternoon in winter I was walking on the Rue de la Paix at the end nearest the Place Ven- dome. I was attracted by the asp of the vast dark Column Vendome rising against the pale gold of the sky. and with the last rays of sun- set lingering upon the statue at its summit. Suddenly I beheld a mass of white, flattering drapery falling rapidly down the front of the great dusky shaft. itetruck upon the huge laurel wreath surfounding the column wher« its base comes in contact with the pedestal, and was thrown by the violence of the shock clear over the railings to the pavement. These white draperies were the skirts of a woman, She bad climbed to the summit of the column with a camp stool hidden underneath her cloak, and while the guide was explaining the principal ints of view to some other persous she profited by the mo- ment that bis attention was distracted. placed ber —- stool just beside the railings, mounted it. and threw herself over. In her pocket was found a card requesting that her body might be sent to a certain house iu a highly respecta- ble street.

From the London Globe. Mr. H. H. Johuston relates a story which strikingly reveals one great secret of Mr. Stan- ley’s success in dealing with the uncivilized tribes of Africa. On one occasion Mr. Stanley went to meet an important, but rather un- friendly, chief, named Ngantshu, on an islarid in Stanley pool. The chief came with a great retinue and with hisancestral fetich, This was ® repulsive-looking thing, made of a moukey's skull and red clay, stadded with cowries and hung with little bells. In it Ngantshu believe the spirits of his ancestors dwelt, and be treated it with veneration and trom time to time poured wine upon it and placed chewed- up food in its montn. The chie? introduced the fetich to Mr. Stan- ley rather anxiously, ‘The average white man ald probably have laughed at it and asked the chief why he believed in such absurdities. But this great explorer sent for a camp chair nd respectfully placed the fetich in it, so that 8 aucestors might be present at the conterence; and when lunch time came and Ngantsha put food into its mouth and poured Wine upon it, Mr. Stanley did the same. The result was that Ngantshu signed a treaty and Decame for all time Mr. Stanley's devoted friend. Perhaps by this time the missionaries have taught him to forsake his wretched idol- atry: but they would never have had a chance to do so had not Mr. Stanley first treated his faith with courtesy. ide | oo ——____ A Mooxsuiser Kiniep sy Derecrives.—De- tectives Baldwin, Robinson and Wallace, coal police for the Elkhorn region, Mercer county, W.
