SUICIDE TO AVOID DROWNING.
The Plan of Greek Merchant on q
Storm Tossed Ship.

Storm osSed Ship.
The officers of the liner Alameda,
which arrived yesterday from Honolu-
lu, says the San Francisco Call,
brought word of tragic incident in
the Hateful voyage of the German
steamer Tolosan, bound from Puget
sound for Vladivostok, which put into
Honolulu Jan. in sore distress.
Great seas swept the decks and
wrought fearful damage; the ship be-
came disabled during the hurricane
and was thrown on its beam ends.
The cargo shifted. One man was kill
ed and others injured, and when the
Tolosan was sighted from Diamond
Head the big freighter looked like a
mass of battered junk.
The Tolosan carried one passenger,
Greek merchant who owned large
shipment CT fruit that formed part Of
the Solosan's cargo When the storm
was at it's height the Greek, with a
razor cleaning in his hand fought his
way against the gale to the bridge
and signalled to the captain that he
wished to speak with him.
will the ship sink?" demanded the
passenger.
Perhaps replied the skipper.
Are we going down now9"
"No We still have chance"
"Will you send word to me when
there is no longer hopper"
Get off the bridget" screamed the
skipper. why do you trouble me at
a time like this? Go to your room!"
"But viii you let me know" per-
sisted the Greek.
Why" yelled the captain.
'I'm afraid of drowning and before
the ship sinks | want to cut my
throat"
TIE gentleman from Greece arrived
at Honolulu with his throat intact, but
would travel no more on the Tolosan
and took passage for the Orient on the
liner China.

berg, twenty five years ago, the amount
of beer the students consumed was
SOmetnlng ASTONISHING, SAID MT. y. N.
Osborne of ST. Louis.
''In fact, many of them drank to
excess, and the fellaw who could pnt
away the biggest quantity was sort

"Now all that has changed, as my
son, who is studving at Heidelberg,
writes me. He says that, while good
many OF the students still use beer, a
gooklly number are teetotalers, and
that the wholesale swilling OF the old
days has gone. think that every
body will be glad to know that sobriety
has taken the place of intemperance
among the young men at one Of the
foremost seats of learning ~ the

Brooklyn, brought suit to-day before
Vice Chancellor St-vens against the
Trinity Episcopal Church. to clear the
title of property on which he desires TO
borrow 10000 The suit reveals cloud
on Mullins OF dollars worth OF real es-
tate lying between the Elizabeth and
the Orange mountains, because OF the
failure OF a lessee 20 pay to the church

terms OF lease.
The trust company from which We'll
sought the loan discovered that. In 1928.
all Of the land on which Newark and the
Oranges are built was given BY the King
of England to four men, as trustees for
the colonists. A son OF one or these
men became a trustee. and. In 1i60, deed
ed the property to the First Presby-

four other churches and itself Trinity
Church was given the 100 acres now
comprising the valuable Roseville resi-
dence section. In lsa2, Trinity Church
