Monday night another man was
killed at Kenton, making the third
within a paratively short period.
This time it was Bradbury Whitaker, a
miner, who Was run over by coal
train while lying on the track in An in
toxicated condition. Late Monday
evening Whitaker left a saloon in
Renton in company with two COM
psnions. who separated from him i'm
mediately afterward. Il is supposed
that he fell while crossing the railroad
track, and was too drunk to move or
make an effort TO save himself. The
train which ran ever him was backing
slowly at the time, but owing to the
darkness of the night tho man WAS not
seen until too late. Coroner Root was
notified and impanneled q jury, which
returned the following verdict:
RKNTON, Dec. 18, 1883.
We, the jury, impanneled to hold an
inquest on the body of Bradbury Whit
taker, find he was coal miner by trade,
native of Lancashire, England, age -
years, has a family in Falston, Beaver
county. Penn. He came to his death
by being intoxicated and lying on the
railroad track and being run over by a
backing coal train at II p. m. Decem-
Der II, 1883. No blame is attached to
anyone, the night being dark and fORgy.
We found on his person one silver
watch, with brass chain attached to it,
and five cents in coin. G. s. Custer, w.

THOUGHTS ON SUICIDE.

We have often wondered at, and deplored,
that most outrageous and atrocious of crimes
suicide. To think how a man can volun-
tarily take away his own life, and hurl him.
selfinto the presence Of his Creator and
Judge, battles all description Yet, notWith-
standing the fact that this crime is directly
opposed to the law Of God-for no man is
master Of his own life-We learn from
authentic sources that it is sadly on the in
crease. There is scarcely q paper that we
take up that does not give Il case OF suicide
as having taken place either i'll our own
country or in Europe. 1t is remarkable,
too, that in those places and countries where
infidelity has gained the greatest sway
obtained a footing, rs we may say-lt is
there that cases Of suicide are moro frequent
and that this most daring outrage against
God and man annually reaches an enormous
figure. 1t has been reported OH official
authority at Copenhagen that during the
past thirty years no less than l6,lll suicides
have taken place out of IL population Of about
1000, 600 souls. This is surely Il sad state
of affairs: and it is all the more revolving
when we consider the various means en-
ployed for the preparation of this awful
deed. Some will have recourse TO drown
ing, others to blowing out their brains by
firearms, others again to hanging themsel-
YES, and still others TO cutting their own
throats with some sharp-edged instrument.
But we may ask ourselves the question, is
there no way of remedying this evil? Can
not men be made to learn that they have no
dominion over their own lives that in lay
ing violent hands on themselves they act
contrary TO every principle both human and
divine, and concur directly in the eternal
ruin of their souls? It is true that the
question is more easily put than answered.
Yet. We do not hesitate to say that there
are many ways Of remedying the evil, and
not the least among the many, is the careful
religious training of our youth.
Faith and hope must be dead in him who
interferes with his own life. Charity and
every Christian virtue must have abandon
ed his soul, and left him a prey to tho thous'
and and one temptations that bcsct him at
every moment He really understands
nothing of what life is, of its Author, or OF
the care which an All-wise God expects
him to bestow on his SOUL which is of infinite
value. Hence, the consequencc-ihe ter
rible accounts which every day meet our
eye.
But while religious education is neglect
cd-while youth are brought up without
being taught what they are, who God is,
what they must do in order to do right, ETC.,
we may expect no better result. Religious
education is the foundation Of civil society,
the hope of nations progress, advance
ment and well-being, and consequently
should not be neglected.

HORSE FLESH IN FRANCE.

The following statistics, with reference TO
the consumption of horsefesh in Paris, may
be found interesting The municipal stati7-
tics of the Ciy of Paris show that in 1881 the
Parisians consumed $500 horses and 400 ass
es or mules, which amounts to about 2,0Gp,OOo
kilogrammes of meat The Hygiene Pratiq"e
ct Gazette Hebdomadairc des Sciences Medi-
Gales de Montpelier regards this form of food
as valuable resource, when is considered
that many French people scarcely ever
touch meat, in consequence of the enormous
disproportion between the production OF
cattle and the population of the country.
The same journal observes that science has
long demonstrated the excellent quality oi
the flesh of the horse. The animal is essen
TALLY herbivorous, and no noxious element
is elaborated in its animal economy; while
its organic resistance is such that out OF
