GIRL SUICIDES.
A Morbid Epidemic Manifests Itself at
Allegheny, Pa.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 1s.-A morbid
desire at self-destruction seems to have
takeu possession of young girls at Allie
ghenny. Ida Lewis, 16-year-old girl,
following the example of Mable Nipple
and Lizzie Mcdonald, who ended their
young lives this week, attempted suicide
last night by drinking the contents OF
an ounce vial containing mixture OF
laudanum and carbolic acid. There is a
strange coincidence in the cases from the
fact that Ida's companion of the same
sge. Laura Gray, attempted to commit
suicide, but courage failed her and she
did not. Miss Gray was with Miss
Lewis when she took the poison. Ply
Hicians were at once summoned and
after half an hours work succeeded in
saving Mics Lewis life. The girls, it
seems, have been reading trashy litera-
ture and having conceived the idea that
they were burden to their parents
sought to end their lives.

stripe indulged in partisan practices,

what further lengths they might have
gone had not the governor made use Of

illegality of their previous actions.

THE Democratic house of representa-
tives is going to ask the supreme court
whether the governors adjournment Of
the general assembly was legal. This
would seem to be work of supereroga-
tion, inasmuch as they claim that an
opinion would only be as binding as
that Of any other five lawyers in the
state. Why don't they ask Messrs.
Miller, Honey, Brown, Mulholland and
Robinson to decide the question? 1t
would save expense. and then they would
get just the opinion they want.

WHAT OF THE FUTUREi

The outcome of the meeting Of the
general assembly at Newport is about
as unsatisfactory as it is possible to
conceive that ii could be under any
conditions or circumstances.
There Is nothing that warrants con-
graduation for either Of the parties.
The Republicans are in a position to
claim that their course at Newport has
been strictly within the limits Of the
laws and the constitution. As far as
they are responsible for the proceedings
at Newport, and their responsibility for
the disgraceful doings of this week, they
are entitled to consider that their record
is not open to criticism.
The Democrats have behaved in
very childish manner. They have not
been guided by considerations relating
to the welfare Of the state, or of their
party as a whole. They have been led
by a man who desired to punish certain
factions within his party more than he
desired the success Of his party as
whole.
This led to great confusion and the
failure Of all propositions looking to the
settlement Of the difficult position the
general assembly found itself in,
whether they involved the recognition
of the Democratic or the Republican
ticket.
The Republicans of the state as
whole are, however, primarily RESPONSE
BILE for the condition Of things, because
they failed to go to the polls and vote
their ticket at the April election. They
cannot avoid this responsibility, and
there ought to be no attempt to do 80.
The cure for this disease Of non-vot-
ing is what the Republicans must ad-
dress themselves to. 1t is the disease
that Is not only sapping the strength of
the party, but is debauching the fran
chise. 1t is not peculiar to this state,
but II IL within the power Of the Re-
publican party of this state to cure the
disease in this state.
The problem is not an easy one, but 1t
must be solved. There Is no other way
to assure the continuance in power of
the party and the preservation to the
people OF the privilege of the franchise.
The question is much broader than
the mere question of party supremacy.
The reluctance Of the people to vote is
not confined to one party, though the
consequences are at present visited
upon the head of the Republican party
more severely than upon that of the
other party.
The immediate business Of the Repub-
lican party is, therefore, to devise some
means to bring the voters to the polls.

WHEELING AND WHEELING.

No form OF exercise has taken more
vigorous hold ON the young men of today
than bicycling, for 1t furnishes combi-
nation Of exercise and pleasure. The
style of wheels has changed materially
during the past few years. Formerly
the riders We're perched high up on their
machines, and the sport then carried
with it q very large element OF danger
Then the safeties supplanted the ordi-
naries, and this innovation was fol-
lowed by tho cushion tires, and later
by the big pneumatic tires, while the
change in tho height of the machine
was welcome innovation. The manu-
facturers seem bound to make changes
yearly in order that they may find a
market for their goods. This year
the cyclers look as though they
were built for race OF hump backs,
and the sight of bicycler speeding
along our roads is enough to drive an
admirer of the human form divine in
sane. No one can have failed to have
noticed the position assumed by the
cyclist of today, and more awkward
position it would be difficult to imagine.
No wonder medical journal laments
that so much Of the gracefulness of the
human form is sacrificed in the purs nit
of cycling, pastime which in all other
respects has everything to commend il.
The attitude assumed by cyclists is
the antithesis of that which creates
straightness Of figure and the develop
ment of the chest, two characteristics
that are inseparable from graceful
ness of form, manly presence and an
attractive personality. And the exer-
else itself must be an injury and not a
benefit under these conditions. The
lungs in their compressed state are ex-
pected to perform the full work those
organs are capable Of under the most
favorable circumstances and with free
play. Manifestly the strain put upon them
must in time show itself In some form
Of lung trouble. The shoulders will
acquire stoop, and the whole physique
will be ruined IL the present style of
riding is not abandoned. II is a pity
that the present craze ever sprang into
existence, for IL will do more to retard
the popularity Of this form of exercise
than anything else, and this, too, need
lossly.
II persisted In IL viii bring about

ADJOURNED AT LAST.
