SAN FRANCISCO, March 9Th
Charles Langenberg, one of the
boys on the training ship James
town, suicided last Sunday night
by jumping overheard. The cause
assigned for the act is that, owing
to his limited knowledge of the
English language, he was the butt
of the boys jokes and in conse-
quence was several times subjected
to punishment, which preyed upon
his mind and drove him to take his
life.
A dividend of twenty-five per
