Ttilniiitsu ptvuclietl recently of tho number of mili'lilcs ami took for his toxt Acta, chanter 10, verses UTuiulUS: "Ho drew out hla sword and would hiivo killed himself, sup ptHliiK the primmer had been lied. llit Paul eiled with u loud volee, naylng 'Do thyself no harm.' " "Mere in a would-be Mileldo ar rested In his deadly attempt," wild the preuehor.

"Tit olden time ami where Christianity had not Interfered with it, mileldo was considered honorable imd a Hlfrn of eoiirmjo. Deinastlienes polsoneii himself when told (hut Alexander's ambassador had de manded tho surrender of tho Athenian orators. Isoorutcs killed himself rather than surrender to 'Philip of Macedon.

Defaulters, alarmed at the j Idoa of exposure, quit life preelpl-j titcly. Men losing large fortunes go out of the world because they cannot endure earthly existence.

More bnses of suicide in tho last two years than any two years of the world's exist ence. The evil is more and more spreading. "While we make this merciful and richcotis allowance In regard to thoe wiio were plunged into mental incoherence, I declare that that man who, in the U'-o of his reason, by his own act, snaps the bond between his body and his soul, goes straight into perdition." is mudivixi: in a roo? Dcpite the centuries spent In Its study, medical science seems, as re gards curing and agreeing how to cure. In an unsatisfactory state Men continue to die, and diseases, or different names for the Mime dis ease, are more numerous than ever. So are surgical instruments. If pro gress in tills science means the skill ful cutting Otit of a disease, whether the patient ultimately recovers or not, then there is progress. The Operations in certain distinguished cases as described are wimderful. They show great skill in Lone saw ing and llesh carving. Thettn!itis factory phase is that the patient so often dies, despite the "highest medical skill" operating on and (ptarreling over lilm. Tho operations performed on tho Kn'iperor Frederick were everything In point of skill that could be desired for cutting a man to pieces. J hit he died. So Were they in Senator Conkllng'scas-e. But he died. So with General Giant. But'ho died. Tho best medical talent of tho coun try treated President Garfield nearly three months for a wound which did not exist' where medical talent said it did. Yet lie died. After death there comes tho med ical disagreement. One doctor charges another with gross Ignorance In the management of 'the case. One says it was this disease, and another that. Tlilsis very unsatis factory to thoi?e whose turn is com ing to be doctored. Tt looks as If the whole science was still In a fog. Unceitainty and disagreement are generally based on ignorance. If a man's roof leaks ho knows what is to be done with it, and the kind of material necessary to euro tho leak, though he may not be able to make a good Job of it himself. But if a man's body Is out of order, even the very men lie may call In to repair It nro very apt to disagree as to what alls him, and even diflcr as to tho material and method to be followed in making the necessary repairs. Tin: Southern Pacific ltailroad Company, anticipating a tremen dous rush to this coast as soon as tho election is over, is making prep arations for tho greatest business this winter It has ever done.
