Tokyo, Japan, Oct. 25.-"Shinju,"
or suicide by pairs of lovers who find
obstacles, are recognized common
place in Japan, but recently several
cases Of, trios seeking death. together
have come to the public notice
In one case geisha and her lover
decided to seek happiness in another
world, and another geisha, who heard
of their intention, was so charmed
with the idea that she insisted on be-
ing one of the: party. So the three
hired boat, tied themselves together
and found death in the ocean near
Osaka. t>,.~
In another instance a school girl
decided to take her life and told two
other girls of her intention. The two
friends wished to show their loyalty
even until death, and one morning the
three small corpses were found on
the beach, firmly tied together by
their sash strings.
On the whole, suicides by women,
which have always been fairly COM
mon, have increased greatly.
Hard times makes it difficult for
many to earn money sufficient to al :
low them to take wives. AS Japan
ese girl considers it disgrace not
to marry, many of the left-oyers arc

Added to these were fresh matters
regarding the technical education of

ditions, guarantees of their rights of
association and combination and their
protection against accidents, sickness,

great ball that Nutasha had ever at

o'clock that morning and had been all

citcment and hustle. All her energies
from earliest morning had been eN-

so was the countess"
The reader infers that their feet
were included in the comprehensive
