SUICIDE EPIDEMIC IS NOW RACING AMONG
 YOUNG INDIAN GIRLS
FavOrite Method of Ending Life Is to Saturate Cloth ing With Kerosene
 and Fire It

Calcutta. September 5-(special.) In han. says:
 Tt appears that quite new spirit has arisen among the eirlhood of the Bangali race. Bengal has of late wit messed with astonishmenr akin to feel ing of reverence and admiration num- Der of cases of self-immoiation of tender Bengali girls
 What this Hindu writes thus com placently describes Is in reality a curious epidemic of suicide. It began some weeks ago with the self-destruction of a girl named Snehalata. whose eather was about to mortgage his property n order to pay the purchase price of husband for her. The sum now demanded by the fathers of eligible boys in Bengal is ruinously high.
 The price of Kayasth who has grad uated may go up to 10000 rapees $3330; 30ou rupees is quite usual demand, and even matriculate can command 500 rupees. The enhancement of rates is due to the law of supply and demand. Girls must ordinarily be married before gre wing up. while the increasing requirement of edu-
 
 the marriage of boys. There is thus a diminishing supply of husbands, where- as the demand is unchanged.
 The suicide of Snehalata, who poured kerosene oil over her clot ning and set her. self on fire, provoked an outburst of ad- miration among marriage iefornlers and the fathers of marrageable girls. The natural result is that other young girls have followed the example of Snehalata, xuHi iS cnv tall girls that when the time comes for their marriage they will sacrifice themselves tn the same way.
 The mania has not confined itself to victims of the husbands dowry The widow of a wealthy young jamedar burned herself to death leaving an orphan child.
 More recently We have had the heroic of yet another tender Bengal girl at this little prossaic railway town of Saidpur. FThe girls husband died of smallpox, Six days later she saturated her clothing with kerosene and set 1t altght.
 Tho admiring chronicler is divided be- tween two methods of accounting for the tragedy. On the one hand. he ascribes 1t to her affection for her husband; on the other, he suggests that the girl, though tender in years. realized but too truly what a lifelong widowhood meant for her.
 The Bangalee. in a discreet protest against these suicides, points out that they are probably suggestedby zeal for imt- tation. As it says. the fashionable mode of sucide among unhappy girl wives and widows was at one time death by hang ing The enormous admiration accorded to Snehalata has changed the vogue t I the use of kerosene oil In all epidemfcs of suicide the victims tend to adopt the same means the same hour and similar p'are, and in the series of horrible self Inflicted deaths among rls in Bengal the points of similarity are so marked as to make it certain that a hysterical disorder has Set in which may give q great deal Of trouble.
