Tckio. Sept. 15 Driven to
their death by grief over the pass

Mutsnhito, and forced by centu
ries old tradition to end their
lives with the sword. General
Count Marosuke Nogi, hero of
Port Arthur, and bis wife,' the
Countess Nogi, hurled themselves
on sharp blades in the main hall
of the palaoe late this afternoon
and died by their own hand.
The general and his wife were
in the long precession following
the emperor's body. Count Nogi
bire the title of supreme council
or of the army. Next to the em
peror he was the highest military
oommander of Japan sni his po
sition inhe procession was' close
to the new emperor Yoshihito, di
rectly fallowing the body. The
action cf 'the NogtrJ'who belong to
the ancient Choshu olan of the
Samuria, was in acoordanoe with
one of the oldest traditions of Ja
pan and even had any one seen
their preparations for the act it is
doubtful if any ' attempt would
have been made to prevent it.
More than one hundred Japanese
have killed - themselves in this
manner, knDwn as hari-kari since
Emperor Mutsnhito died August
lSlait.
General Count Nogi was the son
of Mareteu Nogi, chief of the fam
ily of Hagi, province of Ohcshu
To him his father's sword had
descended and with this ancient
blade he. slew himielf . It will be
buried with him and he will re

Diocese of North Carolina, Christ
Episcopal churoh Newbern, nd
various educational, and charita
hl purpose, trustees being nam
ed to conserve the property and
allot the revenue to the various
beneficiaries.
The commission gave an ex

that the property should b taxed.
Rev. Robert Strange bishop of
the Dioceie of North Corolina,
came to Ka'eign and made a spe

must be used directly as a home
of . worship or kindred purpose,
The Forbes property consists
largely of rental property. 77
