A Suicide Steamer.

There are Suicide ponds" Suicide
rooms" and there are Suicide craft
too.
One Of the ferryboats plying between
New York and Jersey City is called the
suicide boat" or was few years ago.
Among seafaring men the belief Is
common that If during the building or
the first trip Of vessel some bloody
deed be committed aboard it it will be
the scene Of whole series Of terrible
occurrences.
This certainly holds good Of the
steamer Leopold II, plying between Os-
tend, Belgium. and Dover, England.
The Leopold III Is one Of about a dozen
vessels in the same service. but those
intending TO end their lives between
Ostend and Dover invariably select
that particular steamer whereon to
commit the deed.
The fourteenth suicide on the Leo
pold II occurred q few weeks ago.
Shortly before arriving at Ostend the
sailors heard a faint detonatlon, but
paid no attention to 1t. believing 1t to
have been the report Of a cannon fired
at Ostend to warn the vessels of the
heavy fog along shore.
But when the passengers had left
the steamer a new hat, new coat and
a discharged revolver were found on
deck. Some unknown unfortunate had
shot himself and caused himself TO fall

important incidents Of the past weeks
Three clerks were recently dismissed
from a prominent savings bank. They
were neat, accurate, prompt and in no
case had tempered with accounts. The
directors discovered, however. that one
had speculated to the extent Of $40 in
Wall street and the other two had
made small bets at a society race

of health of the city Of London at the
time the grip was epidemic there a few
years ago. 1t seems that they placed
bulletins In public places telling the
people that when taken with the grip
they should drink freely OF lemon juice
diluted with water or strong lemonade.
This should be taken hot. II this was

THE SCHOOL IN A GAVE.

A most novel building is that on the
banks Of the Smoky Hin river a few
miles east of Kanopolls. Ellsworth
county, Kan. It is known as the home
of the cliff dwellers and richly deserves
the name. It Is a huge elf 60 feet
high, rising sheer from the bottom
lands along the river and few hun.
dred feet from the banks Of the stream.
II was the headquarters Of an old band
Of Indians, and the records of the tribe
are cut deep in. the face Of the wall,
still clear and sharp after long cen
turtles OF western wind and storm.
At the base Of the cliff are limestone
caves washed out by the waters Of 9th
er days and enlarged by the people OF
this generation. Doors have been fixed
in the openings that lead to the outer
air, and Of course all the light comes
from that direction.
The caves are used by the people for
various purposes, but the most Inter
estlng Is that OF holding the district
school. For this purpose has been Sc
lected a room II by II feet square and
with high ceilings. In one corner has
been fitted up the teachers desk, and
the maps and charts are fastened TO
the wall. The rough rocks arch over
the whole, and the pupils are surround
ed by walls that are cool and solid.
while their seats and desks are placed
on the earthen floor. The light comes
from the door, though there is at times
a necessity Of n lamp when the skies
are lowering. Day after day they
study and reclte in the little school, Sc
cure from the dangers Of storm or
food, for the cyclone and lightning are
not to be feared in this secure retreat.
