NOT so BAD AS THAT.

Poor little Greece" says the Richmond

European Powers for their part in the
affair Now poor little Greece was Try

ever sentiment one may have for core

Greece in this affair Is too high-Peiers-
burg IndexAppeal.
This is hardly fair to Greece. She has
been headstrong and she has not covered
herself with glory IN the fight that she
has made But IT is not fair TO say that
she was prompted to war by spirit of
theft.
The trouble between Greece and Tur-
key is Of long standing. 1t dates back
to the time when the Greek was the slave
of the Turk. when for more than cen
fury ne groaned under the cruel despot-
ism fhis pagan master 1t was hut
natural that he should hate the Turk
with a holy hatred. and that he should
fight him on the slightest provocation.
The men of Crete are his brethren and
they also had suffered much at the hand
Of the Turk. Blood is thicker than water
aud when the Cretan insurgents asked
for the protection of Greece against the
murderots Turks, it is not strange that
Greece responded TO the cry of distress.

Christians were not altogether blameiess'
They massacrod almost as many Of the

not blind TO the fact that there are two

THE IsE, Or ADsEissITY.

At a recent convention Of funeral direc-
tors in Chicago, there was general COM
plant on the part OF the delegates tnat
the hard times had seriously affected their
business. The complaint was not con-
fined simply to the fact that In hard times
people are more economical In the funerai
arrangements for deceased relatives, but
statistics were introduced to show tnat
In hard times the number OF deaths IS
much less than when times are prosper
Gus.
This IS no Joke 1t Is an actual iact' ana
there Is reason for II In hard times peo-
pie live simpler and eat palmer food and
conform more closely to the natural laws
Of health Extravagant indulgence ana
excess OF living are sure to Increase the
Death rate.
There are many lessons to be learned
from adversitv. II men will study them
intelligently. 1t is good philosophy 10 take
hard times as we find them, TO meet ad-
verslty with courage and resignation, and
10 learn 10 be content with our lot what
ever It may be, rather than to fret and to
chafe and grumble and make ourselves
wretched because we may not have all
that we desire.
DEVELOPMENT of character comes In self
denial, not in self indulgence. and If men
are sensible enough to take that view
and to make use of hard times in develop
ing courage. patient endurance and con-
tentment, hard times may thus be con-
verted into a blessing. Character is a
thing which is more to be desired than
riches. Contentment is better than
wealth.

TOOK ROUGH IN RATS.
Terrible Method of Suicide Adopted by
Louis Rage haHti.


Three fourths OF a bottle of wine and a
box Of rough on rats composed the potion
which Lewis Ragghianti used to end his
life Tuesday night. and when his cold body
was found yesterday morning the room
presented a revolving appearance and gave
indication of the terrible sufferings OF the
misguided man who had just ended MS
life.
Kagghianti was thirty-seven years Of
age. and came to Richmond from Italy
about twelve years ago. He had been
employed as bartender in number or
saloons in the city. The last regular po-
sition he held was at Raphael Francione's
bar He left this place about three weeks
ago. Since that time he had been out
Of work, but was furnished board and
lodging by {. Cuicci. at No. west Broad
street.
Cuicci was an old friend OF Ragghiantis
family and cared for the latter without
demanding any return.
Ragghianti had been drinking a great
deal recently and had told several friends
that he felt like he must kill somebody
or commit suicide, and that he thought
the latter was preferable. He talked OF
suicide often. but no one thought he was
IN earnest.
All day Tuesday he appeared In good
spirits. put declined many invitations 10
drink whiskey. always choosing wine In
stead. Tuesday night he met Mr.. Henry
GcrsdOrf several times and each time told
him goodbye. saying that he would not
see him again.
During the afternoon he left a dollar
with a friend with the request that no.
tice Of his death be sent 10 an Italian
paper In New York. Still all thought
he was only trying to brighten them, as no
one could conceive Of any cause for sui
eide. and what prompted the fearful Geed
Is yet a mystery.
When last seen a friend went TO his
room Tuesday night about 10 o'clock, and
kagghianu told him TO go away as ne
was sleepy. About 1870 lady who
rooms next door heard Ragghianti groan-
ing, but thought he was only drunk. and
being alone. paid little attention to the
noise.
He always arose about o'clock. but
yesterday morning, not having appeared
by o'clock, some one went to his room
to ascertain the cause.
On opening the door q most repulsive
sight was presented. Ragghiant was
lying on the hearth I'm a pool of blood.
His arms and legs were drawn as in con-
WILSON'S, and his whole body terribly dis
torted. The appearance of the room was
too revolving TO admit Of description.
Coroner Taylor was summoned and
viewed the remains. after which they
were removed TO James McDGough' s
undertaking establishment TO he prepared
for burial His fellow-countrymen will
look after the remains.
Ragghianti was unmarried. and broth
err Dario Ragghianti, was the only rela-
tive he had here.
No cause can be given for the suicide,
and If he had any troubles he kept them
10 himself.
The only note he left simply asked that
his watch be sold and the proceeds be
devoted to his funeral expenses.
The funeral services will be held to-day
at $3.50 o'clock from St. Johns Episcopal
church, and the interment will be made in
OakwoOd.
