The Question Of Suicide ss Influenced by
Religious Belief

Religious Belief.
Suicide has been very common among
the Chinese and Japanese, and as death
offers TO the disciples Of Buddha a
change Of being. and many Of them
have heavy lite-burdens TO bear, ii is
not altogether strange, especially as
the BrahIninieal religion 40 encouraged
some forms Of voluntary death, such as
suffice and self-immolation before the
car of Jnggernapt, as to breed an indif-
ference 10 the value Of life, and an es-
travagsnt belief in the merit Of the act
OF sacrifice. But at present il is not
very common among the Hinodos. who
are timid by nature. and many Of whom
hold very pessimistic ideas as TO the
future state. Times there certainly
have changed since. at the death OF a

STEAMER SAVANNAH lost.
All Her Passengers and Crew
Are Saved.
CAUGHT IN SUNDAYS STORM.
She Was Finally Grounded Near st.
HeIen's Light.
The Steamship Birmingham Rescues Her
Passengers-The Latter Vessel Has a
terrible Passage from New
York 60 Savannah.

SAVANNAH, Aug. .30.-The steamship
Birmingham arrived this evening from
New York, two days overdue. She
brings a portion OF the passengers and
crew Of the steamship City of Savannah,
wrecked Cd Monday morning off the
shoals six miles from st. Helens light
house, South Carolina. The Savannah
left Boston Thursday afternoon last, and
went through three storms, each one be-
ing worse than the preceding one Sun
day was the worst. and after terrible
day il seemed that the ship could last but
few hours more, ana Captain Savage
headed her for shoal water.
All night long the vessel ran in the
storm the passengers expecting death
every minute. Early Monday morning
she went aground and all the upper
works began to give way. In the alter
noon q small boat with three of the crew
who volunteered was sent to fad place
on shore where a landing might be made.
Tuesday morning the boat not having
returned the only two boats left were
manned and filed with women and
children. four of the strongest of the
crew selected for each and started for
land. They have been heard from to-
night, having arrived at st. Relens
island where they are being well cared
for. Those who remained on the steamer
were rescued by the Birmingham.
The latter vessel LETT New York Saturday
and on Sunday night labored in q terrific
storm. There was no abatement Monday
until evening, by which time the ship
WIS blown tar out of her course. At day.
light Tuesday the steamer was running
through wreckage of all descriptions.
She came across the schooner Joseph
Suther, with a crew of seven men, the
vessel being waterlogged and the men
were rescued. Later a capsized vessel
was sighted, but 10 signs of the crew. A
number OF other vessels were met with,
their Jnasts and rigging partly gone.
Tuesday night at O'Clock the City OF
Savannah was sighted, and efforts were
made to rescue those remaining on board.
1t was impossible, however, to do any
thing, owing to the tremendous sea lun-
ming, SO the Birmingham laid off shore
till morning, when with great difficulty
the work of rescue was accomplished.

Tin Cans and Ash Heap Give Way to
Flowers and Shrubs in a Back Yard.

Tin Cans and Ash Heap Give Way to
Flowers and Shrubs in Back Yard.
Landscape gardening in fifty foot
back yard sounds queer, but that is ex-
actly what a clever old man, who lives on
Central street north of Fourteenth street,
has accomplished.
Before the advent of the old man IN the
neighborhood this particular back yard
was given over to the multifarious
uses of the hired girl and was
pIentifully besprinkled with tin
cans and cfnder heaps. Now it
ssblOssoms like the rose, - and it truly a
gem in the heart of this big, growing
city BY his perseverance it has been
transformed into a veritabie park in min
iature. Tiny fences, graveled walks,
arbors, a gardeners lodge, complete in
every detail, and, of course, flowers and
shrubs, form tout ensemble of which the
old man is very. very proud.
The dew is still glistening on the morn
ing glories when he begins work among
his flowers. Trowel in hand, he goes
about among his pets, pruning OF a
withered leaf, propping up some weak
ling, transplanting another which obsti-
nately refuses to thrive. One corner Of
his garden he calls his hospital, for here
is where he brings back to life his debil-
itated flowers. He provides them with
revitalized earth and with just the right
amount of sunshine and shadow, he re-
stores them to health. The little back
yard garden is the apple of che old man s

VICTIMS OF THE STORM.
Seventy Dead Bodies Taken from the
Coosaw River in Georgia.

Seventy Dead Bodies Taken from the
Coosaw River in Georgia.
AUGUSTA, Ga, Aug. 3O.-News from
the storm swept districts of Port Royal
and Beaufort is still very meagre. There
is no teiegrsphic communication with
those places, the only news obtsinble be-
ing by mail. News received by the
CkroRic6e tonight brings the startling in
telligence that seventy dead and swollen
bodies were taken from the Coosaw river
today by searching parties.
Not half of the horrors of the storm are
yet told as messengers from the surround
ing sections are arriving hourly. bring
ing news of deaths and terrible havoc
caused by Saturday nights gale. The
result OF the days work of relief puts the
number OF missing ever 100.
In several places along the Coosaw river
eight or ten bodies were found lying on
the Dank close together. Graves were
hastily dug near the places of discovery,
and without ceremony the storm victims
were placed beneath tho earth. Suffering
in some localities among negroes is re-
ported as distressing.
No news of a definite character is re-
ceived from St. Helena and other sur
rounding islands. They are for the most
part thiclSly populated, and it is feared
the loss of life is very great.

"What's that?'' inquired the man with

s'Push shots are barred, said.''
Barred, hay? Well, who in blazes
barred them?"
"Why, they are barred in the rules. :
The man with the whiskers thumpe
his cue down on the floor and leaned over
the table, ''Who made the rules for this
game?'' he asked.
The straw-hatted player hesitated. s'I

CURRENT COMMENT.

THE NEED OF NICARAGUAN CANAL.
The need of a canal on the isthmus
through which our warshlps can be
sent to the Pacific at shorter notice
is particularly evident in these days.
The Yorktown, Philadelphia and
Charleston have already started,
or lately sailed, around the Horn.
The Concord and Baltimore, ordered
to Asia, make the journey by way of
the Suez Canal. Thousands of miles
are travelled by each of these vessels
to circumvent obstacles which canal
at Nicaragua would permanently
remove Providence Journal.
WHY NOT MARBLE TOO?
But why should silver alone be
favored in this way? Why don't
Mr.. Proctor and Mr.. Morrill, join
the senators from the mining camp
states and demand that the govern
ment buy marble, stack it up in
vaults and issue currency againstit |?
The marble would not circulate as
currency, to be sure, but neither does
the silver. No doubt the marble
producers would take their pay in
gold, but so do the silver producers.

ALondon gentleman advertised for apart

received many replies. He pitched upon
one, chiefly because it mentioned splen-

for him to leave his business to see the
apartments he closed the offer by post, send
ing q substantial deposit.
When the time came for him to take his
holiday, he duly arrived at his destination
and was surprised that not glimpse of
the sea was obtainable from any window
OF his apartments.
II thought YOU said there was O splendid

drawing his attention to picture on the
wall-a really excellent painting of the
sea.

Il meant view of the real sea-"
"Oh, did you, sir?'' coolly said the land
lady. "If you will refer to my letter, you
