PrOprieties of Suicide in Japan.

A double suicide which occurred on
the 1stinst. at Kamakura has attracted
some attention. 1t vas caused by the
old trouble, love. The man, Suda Loi-
chi, had been instructor of bookkeep-
ing in the Keiogi-juku and secretary of
the Tokyo Koshinji Intelligence bu-
reau), both of which posts he recently
resigned. The woman, Saito Chiyo,
was of good family and the possessor
of considerable property. A few years
ago she married Ito Rokubei, a cabinet
merchant, the man being adopted into
the family of his wife. Three chill
dren were born, but the union appears
to have been unhappy. The wife en-
deavored unsuccessfully to persuade
her husband to agree to a divorce, and
finally she ran away to join her lover,
Suda, carrying with her a sum of 800
yen. Legal proceedings were then in
stituted by the husband, and the guilty
pair, seeing no hope of escape, com
mitted suicide by hanging themselves
from the bough of a cherry. An
exceptional feature of the affair was
the remarkable elaboration shown
| by the unhappy couple. Each had the
face covered with white cotton cloth.
| the man tied his feet together and the
woman bound cotton cloth about her
waist to prevent any arrangement of
her garment.-Japan Daily Mail.
