Some of the methods employed by the unfortunates who are weary of life beve been sensational. Many of them have shown a wonderful nerve and a i remarkable determination, while others have been so carefully planned as to very materially shake the theory nil J ... *U ~ . vuuv au ouiuuuo aio tuu icouib ui a disordered braia. A few of the most notable instances are here presented. L. Fenner was a young actor who lived at 1634 Ward street, in this city. While laboring under an attack of dementia, the result of intense physical suffering, he arose early on the morning of June 9, 1883, and saturating his garments with a can of coal oil, went into the yard and applied a match. He had eluded his father and some friends, who had been watching him, and they were startled by his I unearthly yells. They found him enveloped in flames, wildly declaming passages from the last scene of Macbeth. Shortly after the fire had been ^quenched he began declaiming another passage and fell over dead. Old soldiers tell of a man named Francis, who served during the war in one of the Pennsylvania regiments In one of the engagements ho was bhot in the head, and was insane after his recovery. One day he managed to get a handful of powder and a fuse about a foot in length. He swallowed xl j ? ? ? * - 1 me powuer ana men iorcea tne iuse down his throat. He lit the fuse, intending to kill himself .by exploding Ithe powder in his stomach. The fuse ilid not burn, however, but sticking in his throat strangled him. One of the most remarkable cases which have come within the jurisdiction of the Coroner's office in this city is the following: A few years ago a German tailor lived in a couit off Poplar street, near Second. His wife was ia perfect vixen, whose dreadful temper harrassed the poor tailor to such an extent that one day he charged a guu with powder, and, filling the barrel with Water, placed the muzzle in his mouth and fired, with the result jthat he blew the top of his head off. {The widow retained the weapon. In About a year she threw aside her weeds and again donned orange-blos6oms, taking to her bosom and her late husband's board another ninth part of a man. Soon the termagant, by her ??

Suicides do not always take the readiest or easiest means of shuffling off. Thus, a barber in Frankford cut his throat during a freak of insanity, but instead of using a sharp razor for the purpose, took a hacked and rusty blade resembling more a saw than a razor, and lived through two hours of terrible agony after gashing himself. Others have used pieces of tin and glass which are sometimes successful in producing a wound that makes the suicide bleed to death. Another case is that of a servant girl, who, a year or two ago, turned on the gas, removed the burner, applied a light and let the flame burn in her mouth until she fell insensible. She died next day. Three years ago a German tailor, living on Olive street, below Thirteenth, took a pair of the scissors used In his trade, and, locating his heart by feeling the beat with his hand, placed the point of the blade against his breast, and, with the opposite end against the wall, pressed until the weapon penetrated to the heart and pierced the lower lobe, when he fell' dead. A Connecticut man, intending todetapitate himself, invented a guillotine ! with an old scythe-blade sharpened to i fine edge for the knife. The knife was fixed at one end of a bar of wood, nrmcn was oaiancea on an upright post. On the knife end was about 200 pounds of old iron, balanced by a tucket of water. A small hole was )ored in the bottom of the bucket to (llow the water to escape, and when he intending suicide had completed lis arrangements, ho lay down under he knife, with a sponge saturated irith chloroform to his nose for the purpose of producing insensibility. When the water had escaped from the ! bucket the weighted knife was brought j town forcibly on his neck and completely severed the head from the ! trunk.?Philadelphia Neios.

A poor stonecutter lived well contented with his lot, although his work was hard and his earnings small, lie broke stones from the side of a high mountain, made them into doorsills ; and gravestones, and then sold them. The saying went, that where he worked there lived a mighty spirit of the mountains, who sometimes appeared to men and helped them to prosper; ' turned to his hard work with a sigh. , "Were I only rich, I need not plague 1 myself so, and could, like others, sleep but the stonecutter had as yet seen 1 nothing of this spirit, and always shook his head when he heaTd him talked about. One day, as he deliv- . ered a stone at the house of a rich ! man, ana saw now tinely the rich live and what a good time they have, he reon a bed with red silk curtains and 1 golden tassels." Thereupon a voice j sounded through the air which said: i "Thy wish is fulfilled; thou shalt be a rich manI" and when he reached home the spirit of the mountain had changed his hut into a stately and luxurious j mansion. He entered and made him- c self at ease. But one day, when the t sun was so hot he dare not venture N out, he saw a gorgeous procession pass oy. in tne miast or a group of brill- ; iant knights a costly litter was " bourne by liveried servants, and in -J the Jilter sat a prince, over whose j head was held a changeable gold urn- !i brella, that the rays of the sun might F not strike him. Discontented, the for- | mer stonecutter looked after the procession, and, as it disappeared from sight, he cried out: "Oh, would 1 were a prince ! then I could be carried > thus and have a golden umbrella to protect me from the rays of the sun." f As he uttered the words there sounded ^ again the voice of the spirit of the mountain: "Thv wish is nw.nmnli?ih. > ? r?? ed; thou shalt be a prince!" And now he was a prince. Many riders pre- t ceeded his litter, and as many followed him; he had honor, splendor and riches abundantly; in fact, all he desired, j and, of course, the golden umbrella ^ with which to protect himself. Nev- t ertheless, he was not contented; he b continually looked about, and sought V wherewith he could make his condi- 4 tion still pleasanter; and he saw how the mighty sun burned around \ him, and in his rays the grass dried up, and even his own face, in spite of the golden umbrella, turned from the heat of th t sun a deeper brown; his life pleased 0 him no longer, and angrily he cried: "The sun is mightier than. I; I would like to be the sun." Again spoke Jthe spirit of the mountain: "Thy wish is given thee; thou shalt be the snn." So he was the sun, and scorched the grass of the earth and the skin of the princes. But, as he saw that the clouds placed themselves protectingly between him and the earth, he acknowledged the clouds as mightier, and was now, with the spirit's help, changed to clouds. He received the beams of the sun, and lot the earth grow green and bloom, and then, to show his power still more, he sent the rain down for days and i - u weeks. Streams and rivers swelled, ? dams and dikes broke and all the fields t were devastated. Only the rock stood [ tranquil and looked scoffiugly at the a powerless floods; all this confusion | troubled him not, and of not even a i ' t little bit of his hard stone could the k raging element rob him. The cloud ? cried, "What! the rock is stronger , than I? No one shall be mightier J than I, and therefore I should wish to t be the rock." The sprit fulfilled his | wish. Become rock, g/own strong t and fast together with the earth, he J needed not to trouble himself about c the blustering of the elements. How i OVA. U. 1 - ...

As lie saw this he cried out exasperated, "So a little human being is mightier than I, the strong rock? That shall not be; then will I rather be a than." The voice of the great spirit resounded anew?there he was, the stonecutter of the old time. By the sweat of his brow he earned his scanty bread, but he was therewith content, and never desired another posi- t tion in life than that which had been his from earliest youth; and, as he fostered J no more presumptuous wishes, and de- l manded nothing further from fortune, ] he also never heard again the voice o! 3 the great spirit of the mountain. j Shorty Sharp and Decisive.

The days of the glory of the old-fashioned iver steam boating have largely departed. It i with mingled sadness and joyful recollection f the past that old steamboat men sometimes :et together to tell yarns about the former imes and of their lively adventures and hairbreadth escape*. When such boats as the acob 8trader and her companions were in heir prime, and when there was no other way f going from Cincinnati to New Orleans exept by water, the steamboat men were kings, tut the railroads came and took the bulk of he passenger traffic^ and the golden days of toamboatXng passed away. The question is often asked if the railroads rill ever be able entirely to run the steamoats off of our great rivers. It is safe to ay that they will not The steamboat interst is one of great magnitude; and as long a* re have such majestic streams as the Ohio ad the Mississippi, there will be steamboats, 'be boats run at a great disadvantage, howver, as compared with the railway lines, for rith the times at which the water is too nigh aid those at which there is barely enough to u..uiu kusiu w> n;ia{n uvor tut) uars, uuaiUlg i irregular and uncertain work. Gut boats must be run; must be insured, nd must be left in good order. To this end ur Board of Marine Underwriters keep up a onstant and careful system of inspection, nspector George Kendall is at the head of his service, and is well known, not only to Cincinnati people, but to all the steamboat len from here to New Orleans. From boyood he has been on the rivers and well knows ,11 their joys and their dangers. One of our orrespondents had a talk with him tbe other lay at his office on Public Landing. Mr. Kendall called up some reminiscences of war imes when he was naval constructor at dound City. Mound City was a lively place a those days, but is now as quiet as a store rhose proprietors do not advertise. In the onversation some matters of personal expeience regarding health and sickness came up or mention. "I have generally enjoyed rugled health," said Mr. Kendall, "but two or hree years ago I was taken with constipaion and some pretty severe kidney trouble. . suppos^ it came from catching cold. 1 am l good deal exposed to draughts here in the iflice. and thon T huva rm teamboat-holds where it is Samp and wet. 7T ell, I had it badly for a while, but I got id of the whole trouble by using Brown's ron Bitters. I think that's the best medicine know of. Tell you how it was I first got it. had been to St. (>ouis with my son, and ha vas taken with inflammation of the liver; a >ad case it was, too. I had heard Barclay, he druggist at Cairo, speak about Brown's [ron Bittors, and say it was a first-rate thing, or it had done good to some of his friends. Kt Grand Tower I got a bottle of it, and gave t to my son as directed. The effect was surmising. It brought him right out of his Jckness, and be had no return of it. "Then I tried it myself, for I thought if it lid him so much good, it ought to do somelaing for me. I was suffering badly then with constipation, and my kidneys were not working right at alL A few doses began to all on me. I saw it was the very medicine I leaded, and I found it was a first-rate tonie. [ have taken it for that since I got rid of my cidney difficulty and constipation. You see [ am in very good health now, and I want to teen bo." "Have you used this medicine in vmir fam. ly for others than yourself and your son?" "Yes, yes; we used it as afamUy tonic, and we like it for that. I hare bought it hy the iialf dozen bottles. I have a bottle or two at lome now, and I mean to get more when ;hat supply is out. There is nothing like it for people who are run down and feel weak. For women and children who are ailing, it is i great strengthener and appetizer. It is a rreat deal better than those whisky bittors, for this does no harm, while some of them ire very mischievous. For a steady-going medicine that you ean always rely on, give lie Brown's Iron Bitters." Substantiating above testimony we give fou the results of this great remedy in our midst. Mr. P. H.
