Commercially were misinformed as
to the name of the party who committed
suicide at Orcas Island, of which mention
was made in our last issue. The mans
name was Charles Emerson, supposed to
have been an American, and aged about 3o
wears. Emerson is said to have been a
man Of some ability, and well edu Gated
He was sufficiently sensible, before COM

books and papers, and leave behind no
material clue as to his previous history or
motive for taking his life. Barricading

to the trigger of the gun, and shot HIM
self through the heart. There appears to
be sort of fatality about the place where
the suicide was committed; for it was at
this very spot, about five years ago, that a
man named Mcdonald, at that time occu-
plying the place, was foully murdered by
being shot in the back, presumably by In
dams, and the body buried under a pile
of rails and brushwGod.

What Can Wealth Do t?

The following story is told of ia
cob Ridgeway, a wealthy citizen OF
Philadelphia, who died many years
ago, leaving a fortune of five or six
million dollars.
''Mr. Ridgeway," said young
man with whom the millionaire was
conversing, "you are more to be en-
Wed than any gentleman | know
"Why so ?" responded Mr.. Ridge
way. ~ am not aware Of any cause
for which | should be particularly
envied."
"What, sir" exclaimed the young
man in establishment. "Why you
are a millionaire Think of the
thousands your income brings you
every month !"
"Well, what of that ?" replied
Mr.. Ridgeway. "All get out of it
is my victuals and clothes, and |
can't eat more than one mans al
lowance, nor wear more than a suit
at a time. Pray, can't you do as
much 2"
"Ah, but said the youth, "think
of the hundreds Of fine houses you
own, and the rentals they bring
you"
"What better am | off for that ?o
replied the rich man. II can only
live in one house at a time; as for
the money / receive for rents, why |
can't eat it or wear it; | can only
use it to buy for others to live in;
they are the beneficiaries, not l."
"But you can buy splendid furni-
ture, and costly pictures, and fine
horses and carriages-in fact, any
thing you desire"
"And after / have bought them, y
replied Mr. Ridgeway, "what then ?
| can only look at the furniture and
pictures, and the poorest man, who
is not blind, can do the same. | can
ride no easier in fine carriage than
you can in an omnibus for five cents,
without the trouble of attending to
drivers, footmen and hostlers; and
as to anything desire, | can tell
you young man, that the less we de-
sire in this world, the happier we
shall be. All my wealth can't buy a
single day more of life-power to
keep afar off the horn of death, and
then, what will avail, when, in "a
few short years at most, | lie down
in the grave and leave it all forever
Young man, you have no reason to
envy me.
