coda save: A most deliberate and bar-
bario attempt at sucide occurred at this
place yesterday. Mrs. Leo Prabuski, a
Polish woman, became angered at
some little aomesuo occurreucu u
determined to do away with her life.
She procured an ordinary hatpin six
inches long and drove the pin into her
stomach through the navel, l'ressing
hard against the pin, she drove it until
it could go no farther, as it had lodged
in the spine. Then, with the intention
ot forcing the pin out at the back, she
procured a rusty darning needle ana
drove this into what she thought was
the hole made by the hat pin. Not
until 12 o'clock last night did she tell
any one what she hail done.
Today Mr. Prabuskl repented ot her
act. and accompanied the Bucoda phy-
lOlan to this city, where Dr. Uedpath
removed the pin and needle. Dr. Red-
path thinks she will live. She is 48
year old and has 19 children, five of
whom are living.

passing out of the boat the body of the
man hurled itself against Third Mate
Nikito and one of the crew, knocking
both overboard. The mate scrambled

knife. Then began a chase for the
whale and the body of the man. For

CANNIBALISM IN SOUTH SEAS.
Natives of the New llebrtde Roaats a
Hawaiian.
Vancouver, B. C, Oct. 9. A re
markable story of cannibalism was
brought to Sydney, Australia, a few
days before the sailing of the steamer
Aorangi to this port, by the rrencn
steamer Jeanette. . The victim of the
display of savagery was a native of
Hawaii, named Amaru, who acted as
orderly to the immigration department
at Noumea, in the New Hebrides.
About six months ago Amaru mar
ried a native woman of Aoba, in tha
New Hebrides group, and on passing
that island on the second day of the
voyage of the Jeanette to one of the
outlying islands, he decided to visit his
wife's tnbe. Accordingly the couple
were put off in a small boat, and it was
only a few weeks ago that the steamer
mad a second call and learned their
fate. By mistake they bad landed on
an unfriendly shore ana were taken
prisoners.
The man was tied to a etase and his
torture begun. This consisted first in
allowing vicious jungle snakes from
which the poison fangs had been re
moved to attack the man's legs.
Then a fire was made at his feet and
his legs were horribly burned, though
the injury was superficial so that the
victim would not die under the treat
ment. Then he was made the target
for the spears of the tribesmen, who
finally killed him. He was torn to
pieces and placed over a fire with two
iheep. In fact, according to the story
he was eaten with the sheep.
In the meantime Amaru's wife had
been provided with another husband.
The matter was reported to a British
man-of-war, but it is thought no aotion
has been taken.
