EARL HAmsHAW COMMITS
 SUICIDE IN SEATTLE.

ATLIN, B. C., April 1s-The start ling news was received by telegraph in this city Monday to the effect that Earl Hamshaw, son of Fletcher T. Hamshaw, had committed suicide in Seattle a few days previous, by blowing his brains out with a shot gun. The rash act of the young man is believed to have been caused by dispondency.
 Earl Hamshaw was about twenty five years of age, and of a sunny disposition. He was a bright young fellow, and very popular with h's many friends. He has been a resi dent of this city for a number ot years. and might be termed as one of Atlin's boys" He bore a repu tation of being a man of exemplary habits. and thoroughly dependable al all times.
 He was married about two years ago and since leaving this town has resided in Seattle.
 The late mails brought cards from Fletcher T Hamshaw, stating that he had just arrived in London Eng.

 To quote from page l56, Vol. l6, of the Transactions of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine En- gineers: Tt is compulsory to pro- vide a full compliment of life boats and other life saving appliances to- gether with davits which can be re- lied upon to lower the boats in a heavy sea without the least chance of mishap.

An outbreak of hostilities between

quarrels with Turkey arising out of
the chronic disorder in Macedonia
and Albania. 1t is a matter Of gen.
