À SUICIDE BUREAU.

POISONED DISNEÚS TO CLIENTS.

A doctor living in Busnes Ayres, but of Italian origin, has been arrested under extraordinary circumstances. It is alleged that he was the proprietor of a Suicide Barosu, which has been responsible for the deaths of a large number of people duri the last few days.

People who wished to die but who abirked the more brutal and straight- forward methods of committing suicide, consulted the doctor. He invited them to dinner, whore most beautifully-served dishes werd set before them and fine wines provided. An orchestra discoursed de. licious music, and export dancers displayed their skill." Whos the slow poison which the guests had assimilated unconaciónsly with their food began to work, they slipped out of the room and were taken quickly by mctor to their homes. In the morning they would be found dead with a letter Dear at hand expressing their intortion to commit suicide.

The whole organization has come to light in the following manner. A young couple who loved each other, but who could, not obtain the consent of the parents to the maringo, beanie' cliente, of the doctor.
