A CHINAMAN ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
Early yesterday morning a young man named William Webster, Parnell, discovered .a Chinaman on the beach at St. George's Bay in a serious con-j dition, evidently suffering from, the effects of a fall" from the cliff above, a height of about 40ft.' He at' once informed Constable Rock, of Parnell. who proceeded to the spot, and found the Chinaman, whose name is Ar Chong, in a critical condition. He was bleeding from the mouth and nose, the face was considerably battered, the right eye being closed, and there, the man replied, "I come three the body. Asked as to how he came there, the man replied, "I came three o'clock; I likee drown myself." He had evidently thrown himself over the cliff, thinking he would fall into the water and be drowned; but as the tide was out he fell on to the beach, well away from the -water. Ah Chee, in whose employ the man was, wns communicated with, and he was taken to the District Hospital in a cart. Ah Chong told his fellowcountryman that he had gone to the Bay. to drown himself. The would-be suicide has been suffering severely from rheumatism, for some time, and has been despondent >f late, and it is supposed that his mind became affected. He i's progressing favourably at the Hospital, and as none of the internal organs are seriously injured is expected to mak-? a good recovery.
