A SUICIDE CUB.
One Member TO Die Each Year BY lis
Own Hand.

OWH num-
The Bridgeport Farmer, in its
last issue, emphatically states that
John Kenny, who committed sui,
eide in that city on Monday was a
member of the Suicide Club which
was organized in Bridgeport about
three years ago. There were five
asserting individuals present at
the time the proposition to form
such peculiar band was broached,
and the membership never increas>
ed. The members agreed, half
jokingly and half earnestly, that
some one OF them should commit
suicide on each succeeding year
until all were gone. The means
bers further agreed that the c'ub
should hold meetings annually,and
at these meetings they should de-
eide by ballot. individual inclina~
ton or otherwise, which member
was the next to shuttle of the
mortal coil, Friends of these men
say that at the time the Suicide
Club was organized the members
were not intoxicated and none of
them had shown any signs of being
unbalanced. 1t is known that
the club held several meetings since
it was organized, but The members
always refused to divulge what
business was transacted at their
| conciave.
Henry Jensen, the president Of
the Suicide Club, who kept a sa-
loon on Gold street. was the frs,
member to make way WITH him.
self. He put himself out of the
world by his own hand about two
years ago.
The next member to commit sui.
eide was VIM. Nickel, the sign
painter, who cut his throat. Whe'h-
er he did this of his own lmnulsa
or because his death had been de-
creed i'll council. the other members
refused to say.
At this juncture friends of the
surviving members began to look
upon the matter as something very
serious, and urged them to give up
their mad scheme. Their pleadings
were received coldIy, however, by
two of the surviving members, but
The third, well>known German
resident OF West Siratford, accedsd
10 the wishes OF his friends and
rendered his resignation to the So
ciety. The other two members
called him a coward, and said that
he resigned because he telt conf
dent that he would be the next
member selected to die. When
the club was organized John KEN
~, who committed suicide Monday,
was elected Vice President, and
upon President Jeusen's death
Kienzy assumed the presidency of
the club and held it until the time
OF his death. There ia left only
one member of the original comb,
nation outside CT the ore who re-
signed, and he Is in business in
Bridgeport.

LoKz, ckR0S AR0 DEArR,
One Of the Many Touching Romances TO
Be Fonrd OF Monte Carlo.

Be Found at Monte Carlo.
A young married man OF Lyons
fell in love with a young married
woman. They met secretly, ador-
ed each other, aud agreed to flee
together to put the seas between
themselves and their families.
But there was slight difficulty in
their way. They had little money
for long journey, and they want
ed to be far away in America.
Then thu idea came to the man
that they would take their small
capital of few hundred francs
and 90 to Monte Carlo and make
it into fortuLe- fortune which
would enable them to live in peace
and plenty on a tar-of shore.
So it cane that one day, with
small box and a portmanteau, the
fugltives arrived at Monte Carlo
aud put up in little hotel where,
for eight francs day, you can
have bed and board. They had
only few hundred francs with
them. In the letter which they
left behind they explained that
from the first THEN arrangements
were complete. They toresaw the
possibilities OF the situation. They
would play until they had won
enough to 90 to America or they
would lose all, and il they lost all
they would lie together, and give
their friends no further troubIe
about them.
They were few days only in
Monte Carlo. They risked their
louis only few at a time and they
spent the remainder OF the days
and evenings in strolling about
the romantic glades and quiet
pathways OF the beautiful gardens,
whispering together Of love aud
looking into each others eyes.
The end came quickly. One
evening they went up in the soft
moonlight +" he fliryland Of Mon
tie Carlo. They entered the CASH
no. They bad come to their LAST
few golden coins. One by one the
crnrer's remorseless rake swept
them away and then the lovers
went out from the hot, crowded
rooms out from the glare Of tn.
chandeliers and the swinging lamps
INTO the tender moonlight again.
Down "tho staircase of fortune"
arm in arm they vent, along the
glorious marble terraces that look
upon the sea, on to where at the
tootof the great rock on which
Monaco stands there lies the Cons
damine. 1t was theil last walk
together. The lovers were going |
home to die. |
That night, in some way, the |
guilty and ruined man and woman !
obtained some charcoal and got it |
into their bedroom. They then
closed the windows aud doors and !
prepared FOR death. They wrote
letter letter which an official .
assured was so touching that as he
read it in the room where they lay !
dead the tears ran down his cheeks. |
Then the girl dressed herself with /

FRED DOUGLAS has level head
though a bitter heart. He has no
love for the South, but his dislike
for this section does not 20 warp his
jad cement as to make him see his
side in wrong light. A few DAYS
ago at Chicago he announced that
the negroes were not numerically
or Intellectually strong enough to
warrant them in drawing the color
line. That eight millions couldn't
buck against sixty millions, end
that it would be foolishness for
them to believe that they could
force terms from either the Repub>
lican or Democratic parties, and
that as they we're not strong enough
to accomplish anything by banding
together, it would be policy to float
with the stream and take things
with as good grace as they find
them. 1t his color in Georgia
could have this idea drilled into
them, they would receive great
benefit.

1t got so bad that l had to turn

that it wasn't the pineapples. The

Rats, ] learned, or at least rat
they have down there, are great
devonrers OF pineapples. They
were so destructive to the crop
years ago that in some places it
would frequently be an almost to>

to know how to to keep the rats
down until some Yankee was on
Etreurid Island one time and lie
told the natives that there was
nothing that a rat had such tooth

that there was nothing SO deadly
as sulpher matches and that nothing
would abs orb the poison Of sulpher

ly as boiled sweet potatoes. The
pineapple growers took the hint
and from that day to this no Bahia
ma rats will tuch a pineapple if
there are plenty of cold sweet po-
tatoes scattered about the planta>
ton. They don't seem to be able
to detect the presents of the

IS that Thousands of rats are tur>
