DISTRESSING SUICIDE IN HAGERSTowN,
Mp.-The Hagerstown, (Md) Herald
and Torch announces the suicide Of an
aged and respectable citizen of that
place, Judge Charles G. Lane, who ter
minated his own existence by hanging
himself in the garnet of his dwelling.
The Herald and Torch says:
although it was known to Judge
Lanes family and immediate fri, n Is that
he had been suffering for SOM weeks
previously from slight indisposition,
accompanied with severe mental depres-
sion, it was not supposed for moment
that the disturbance of his mind was so
great as to induce him to seek relief
from his troubles in death. Judge Lane
had nearly attained the age Of three
score and ten, and during this long lite
sustained an excellent private and esti-
mable public reputation. He held the
responsible position Of Judge
of the Orphans Court for 4 number of
years, and was director of the First
Natl onal Bank for still longer period,
Will tildl iiISliNtNib'4 h"Nh ~
was established as q savings bank. and
remaining in its board of direction thro'
all its changes, until he became its pres
ident, which Office he held at the time
of his death. He was also Mason, land
was probably the last remaining mem
Der or the old Mt. Moriah Lodge, which
contained upon lis roll the names of so
many of our leading citizens Of other
days. On Monday afternoon the funer-
al services took place at his late resi-
dencc, in which several ministers of the
town participated, including the Rev.
Nh. Luckenbaugh, who made some very

PLYMOUTH CHURCH.

Rev. Mosley 81. Williams spoke in the morn
ing from Timothy, iii: 1, SIN the last days per-
ilous times shall come" All times have their
perls. But there are epochs in which dangers
mass and threaten. Perilous times were those
before the deluge, when mans wickedness was
very great. God put period to that by the
flood. Perilous times shall precede the second
coming of Christ. The earth has fretting
leprosy and must be purified by fire. The s1ast
days" extend from Christ's incarnation to his
second coming. They shall be perilous times.
The apostle uses nearly twenty adjectives to
show the character of the men of the last days.
They shall be self-lovers and coveteous. The
root of all sin is that the soul is self-centered.
The facilities for gaining wealth give mighty
momentum to cOvetousness. The railroad
kings have larger resources than the crowned
kings once had. Vanderbilt, at eighty, is still
planning for larger combinations Stewart,
past seventy, disposes Of a hundred millions By
his VIII, and then goes TO Europe to extend his
business. The little men pattern after the
great. Covetousness impelss the country store
keeper as truly as the metropolitan merchant.
fashionable life is contest for.superiority.
The women compete with dresses and dla-
monds. The watering-place correspondent has
nc eye for the seekers after rest and quiet. His
pen photographs are of the "high life" which
dresses and fiirts or drinks and CANDLES.
Everywhere goes the newspaper. The boys
and girls of the remotest farm house feel the
poison of these vicious ideals. They emulate
tnat spirit in their little sphere. The highest

Chinese Outrages at San Francisco
Difficulties at a Court Trial.

SAN Francisco, Aug. Slight Cinnamon,
members of the secret tribunal of the Hip zee
Tong Society, were on trial to-day before jury
at the Police Court, on the charge OF conspiracy
to extort money from Lun Vat Sung, by threats
of death on his failure to pay $3.50 as the price
for his wife, who escaped from the keeper or q
brothel, to whom she had been sold. Yum Vat
Sung swore that soon after his marriage he was
summoned and taken before the tribunal OF tue
society, where thirty men were present, and the
door secured by an armed guard; that All zee,
one of the prisoners told him he must pay the
money or return the woman,sor he would be
killed; that the Hip zee Tong Society would
spend SIC. 900 to secure his death; that he plead
ed he had do money, when they finally gave
him two days to raise the amount, and released
him, when he fled back to the mission school
for protection. Sung remains at school aud
does not 90 out unless escorted by white men,
Doctor Lob Shi, who speaks English fuently,
was sworn to translate a large number OF docu-
ments which were found by the police i'll the
room of the society. He translated several
when he came to one in which record was
kept of the sale of woman to the Keepers OF q
brothel. and the punishments inflicted upon
her. He refused to go any further: The court
admonished him, but still he refused TO pro-
coed. The court then threatened TO SEND MN
to JAIL but he would not obey, and hnaiiy he
was given till Monday to CONSIDER tne matter
A complete translation OF all the documents
found is in the hands of the authorities. Ihe
trial will be continued on Monday next. Great
crowds of Cinnamon are watching the proceed
ings in the case with eager interest.

Total. ............... SoW,o3o
OF this amount about 5000, 900 falls up IN the
Portland Steam Packet and New England and
Nova Scotia S. S. Co.'s The Maine s. S. Co.
loses 100000 The Grand Trunk loses about
$780,
There are several minor losses not included in
the above estimate. The injury to the barque
Gertrude will amount to $500. Loring, Short
& Harmon lose S3,s0O3 worth of fpaper hang
ings, and Bailey & Noyes $500 worth. G. M.
Rice loses $500 worth of paper. j. Winslow
Jones had sent down 1913 cases of canned gods
to the wharves in the morning, and they were
stored in the burned freight shed. There were
&C hogsheads of sugar and several hundred bar
rels of picked fish in the sheds. j. w. Per-
kns & Co. lose $500 worth of alcohol, sc. The
freight in the Boston and Halifax sheds was
nearly all delivered. Ninety-three bags of
coffee, part of the freight of the Dirigo, con-
signed to Emery & Kurdish, and worth $4,000,
were lost.
OF course the CONSEQUENTIAL damages will be
large. this season of the year there is a
great demand for state rooms on the steamers,
and the amout of freight is not small. The de-
lay occasloned by the time taken to supply the
places of the burned vessels will entail heavy
loss on the steamship companies. The loss of
the Grand Trunk occ$sioned by the deprivation
of freight accommodations on the wharves can
not be estimated, but must be large.
