Kulclelo AIMOIII : Mnrricel Men. Now YorkTnbuno : An insurance pa per , "tho Chronicle , " has been collt'ctiiij the statistics of suicides in the Unite > States. Many of the facts gathered run thu conchisious derived from them wer given to the Tribune recently. Amonj the < most singular and perplexing is th fact that "tho classification by coudltloi allows.a creator proportion of suicide union ; ; the married than tlm unmarrietl which is contrary to the accepted the ory. " I Contrary it certainly is to th statistics of suicides in Kuropo , wher the fact that mom bachelors than benc diet ) shulllo off tholr mortal coil volut tarlly bus long been cited us ono of th most obvious reasons for entering hit the holy state of matrimony. If , then fore , it is true1 , as stated , that the Amor can married mnn Is moro prone to su side than his married brother , hoi dreadful u series of conjectures and Eur misos is opened up , and now heavy is th Inferential indictment preferred agaliu the wife of the period. For it is impoi iiblo to escape the conclusion that if th aaulonty of American suicides nro mai men , tholr desperate deeds must a Ccet be In part attributed to their cond Won. Now it may well bo asked what thor is or can ho In American married Ufa so to tiill'ercntiato it from the married llfo of the old world. In the latter men fly to wedlock as a guarantee ngatnsl the morbid humors which are supposed to Impel the lonely bachelor to the halter or the stream , Can it bo believed that in the land of the free and the homo of thu bravo a contrary stream of tondiincy runs ? Is it conceivable that husbands hero are in some mysterious way moved to seek in the other world relief from troubles which overwhelm them in this ? The question is not loss deep than deli cate , and tlio morn it is pondered the darker does it appear. For whereas iu Kuropo thu prevailing system of govern ment discountenance divorce , with us , until quite recently , the facility for dis solving the marringo bond has been , in the Judgement o ! many thinkers , ev- cessive. Moreover , bhakespcaro has ob served upon the universal disposition among men rather than to "bear the ills they have- than lly to others that they know not of/ ' and what must bo the nature and c\tont of the present and material ills whoso weight causes married men thus to go counter to the common ex- perieneo of the race1 and choose ) death with all it bring * ocforo continued ex istence on the plane of imilriinoncy ? There is , indeed , ono peculiarly Ameri can phenomenon which , or HO it may seem to the cynical , possibly has some connection with the strange reversal of suicidal statistics in relation to marriage. It Is known among men as the woman's rights question. Its manifestations have in some respects been awe-inspiring , and it is perhaps conceivable that here and there a married man of abnormally feeble mind , finding so portentous a pres ence looming up in his household and overturning all his lixed ideas as to the proprieties of things and their fitness , might bo so overcome as to lay violent hands upon himself. Of course this is the murust conjecture. The real explana tion of the dlflerenco between the sui cidal tendencies of married and unmar ried men here and in Kuropo may bo far moro abstruse and ditlicult of compre hension , It is possible that the iin- measurabln superiority of the American girl over all other created beings some times proves too much for the sanity of the rash man who has aspired to part- ncrdhlp vitli her , and that subsequent realization of his own eleliclencics en genders despair and the suicidal act. llut it is all a mystery , and we can but grope blindly after thu solution unless , indeed , we are prepared to adopt the Alexandrian method of undoing the Gordtan knot and throw thu onus ol proof upon thu mischievious statistician' who have involved us in the perplexity by denying ilatly thu truth of the central averment. Ami that course , which it not without its advantages , is open tt anybody. _ My Wedding Hlng. Dnhnta Of II.

ANOBLe IN A PEASANT'S DRESS. the Count Hoofs a Pnir of Shoes While He Discourses on Philos ophy nnel Non-llnslslnnco A Striking Mr. George Kcnnnn , the well known Siberian traveler , recently visiteel Count Tolstoi in Hussia and publishes In the Juno Century an account of the great novelist's social and political views. Mr. Kcniinn Imd just made an extended tour in Siberia , under the auspices of the Century , and was the bor.rcr of import ant messages to Tolstoi from some of the political exiles. Ho was especially charged with the delivery to Count Tel stoi of a narrative of tho' 'hunger strike" which took place iu thu prison at Ir- kotitsk in December , Ib8l , anel lasted sixteen days. This heroic protest against injustice and intolerable cruelty by vol untary self-starvation was undertaken by four political convicts , all educated women , who were brought very near to death , Tlio narrative was written by Madame Rosslkova , ono of the "hunger strikers , " and was smuggled out of the prison by an administrative exile , who occupied a cell next to her's aud had siicccded in opening communication with her at night by means of a cord with a small weight attached , which ho swung within rcae'h of her window. Count Tolstoi read three or four pages of the maiiuseiipt and then returned it to Mr. Koniinn. It was expected that the American's mission to the great teacher of non-i esistauco vvould boar fruit and it must be concedcel it was u failure. Mr. Kcnnau's paper is an extremely in teresting one , in spite of a detcrm'ined effort on his part to make it dull. Count Tolstoi's doctrine of non-resistance ) is not one in which the world at largo can have any great interest. It is the personality of tha novelist , not the theories of the po litical doctriuairo , that commands atten tion. Fortunately the man forced his way to the front and Mr. Kennan's arti cle , in consequence , is ono of thu most noteworthy in any American magazine for many day. Count Tolstoi , at the time Mr. Kcnnan visited him , was living on his estate , near the village of Yasnayu Folyaua , iu the province of Tula. It was necessary to linel homo conveyance from Tula , where the visitor left the train , to the count's house. "Selecting from thu throng of droshky drivers at the station , " Mr. Kennan writes , "ouo in whoso face there was an attractive expression of mingled shrewdness and good humor. I called him to me and asked him if he knew Count Tolstoi. 'Know our Hahiinl' ho exclaimed , with a broad smile and the half-caressing , half-deferential manner of the Russian peasant who has been ac customed to associate upon terms of per mitted equality with his superiors. 'How is it possible not to know the Graf Why , lie * is ours ! he lives in Ynsimya Polyana , only litteen versts from here. ' " 'Is there an inn or a post station in Yasnaya Polyana where 1 can goV' 1 in quired. " 'No , ' replied the droshky driver ; 'but why go to an inn ? You can stay with the Count ; ho is a plain , .simple man [ spfsom prostoil ; ho always shakes hands with me when I go there , and ho works in the Holds just like a common mu/.hik. He is a good man , our liahrin ; ho will bei glad to have you stay with him.1 " The property was in a r.ithor unkempt condition and Mr. Konnan was not sure as to what constituted the front door ol the mansion. A lady sat on a bench al thu end of the house under the shade of n tree. He asked lier if the Count wus al homo. "Sho replied that she believed he was , " hu sayX , "and asking me to lollow her she outereul the house , requested mete to Descaled in'aj , small reception room , and then , tnfpirig to an open door in n wooden partition , she called in English "Count , are jyur.there' " A deep yoice from the other shlu of the partition re plied , 'Yes. ' i JArgoutlemnn wishes to see jou , " she saidvand tlmn , without waiting tor a response , she returned to the cro quet ground. Them was a sound of r moving chair in < the adjoining room , and in a moment Coiint Tolstoi appeared al the door. I had heard not a little from his friends with regard to hio eccentrici ties in tlio matter of dress ; I had been shown photographs of him iu peasant garb , and 1 did not therefore expect to see a man clothed in soft raiment , but i was hardly prepared , nevertheless , for the extreme unconvcntionality of his attire , "The day was a warm and sultry one , He had just returned from work 'in the fields and his apparel consisted of huav.y calfskin shoes , loose , almost shapelos'- trousers of the coarse homespun linen ol the Russian peasants and a whlto cotton underslml' without collar or neckerchief. Ho wore neither coat or waistcoat , and everything that ho had on seemed to beef of domestic numifacttirc. Hut even in this coarse peasant garb Count Tolstoi was a striking aud impressive figure , The massive proportions of his hoavilj moulded frame wcio only rendcreel the more apparent by the scantiness nie : plainness of his dress , and his strong , res olutc , virile fneu , deeply sunburned h } exposure in the fields , seemed to acquire added strength Irom the feminine ! ar rangemcnl of his iron gr.iy hair , whicli was parted in the middle "and brushed back over the temples. Count Tolstoi'i features may bo best describeel in Tuscan phrase ns "moulded with the list and pol ishcd with the pickaxe , " nnd the impres sion they convey is that of independence self reliance and unconquerable strength The face docs not seem at lirsl glance to bo that of a student or n spoon- lativo thinker , but rather that of n man ol action accustomed to deal promptly and decisively with perilous emergencies , am to light ffercoly for his own hsnd. re gardless of odds. Tlio rather small eye * elecply set under shaggy brows are ot si peculiar grny which lichts up in excite nieut with a Hash like that of drawn steel ; the nose is large anel prominent with a singular widcness and bluntnesa at the onel ; the lips are full anel firmly closed ; and the outlines of the chin anei jaws , so far as they can bu seen througl : the full gray beard , only give additionn emphasis to the expression of virile strength , which is the distmgulsliini ! characteristic of tlio largo , rugged face. "I explained to him,1' ' Mr. Kcnnan con Unties , "that my call was the result partis of a promise which I had maelo to some of his friends and admirers in Siberia and pailly of a dcsint to make the per sonal acquaintance of an author whosi books had given me so much pleasure. " 'What books of mine have you read' ho asked quickly. I replied that 1 luu road all of his nqvcls.including 'War air. Peace , ' 'Anna Kjircnniua' and 'The Cos sacks. ' ' , " 'Have you seen any of my latter writ ings ? ' ho inquired. " 'No , ' 1 said ; 'they have all , or nearl' all , appeared ainco 1 went to Siberia. ' " 'Ah ' ho 'then ' ! responded , you don' know mo at all. Wo will get ae quaintcd. ' ' "At this mopiont my ragged nnd generally orally unpresentable droahky driver whoso existence 1 had wholly forgotten entered the d or. Count Tolstoi at onci rose , greeted .him cordially as an old ac quaintance , shook his hand as warmly a he had shaken mine and asked him witl unaffected interest a number of question nbout his domestic affairs and the noTv of the day in Tula. It was perhaps i trilling incident , but 1 was not at vvha imo ns well acquainted n I now nm with Count Tolstoi's ideas concerning oclnl question ! , ami to see a wealthy tusslan noble , nnd the greatest of living novelists , shaking hands upon terms of icrfect equality with a poor , ragged and lot overclenn droshky driver whom I md picked up In thu streets of Tula was ho first of the series of surprises which nndei my visit to Count Tolstoi memor able. " The reception room whore Mr. Kcnnan mot Count Tolstoi was small aud nearly square , and seemed to servo a double mrposo ns R reception room nn-l a hull. Two of IU walls were of vrhitc plaster ; ho third consisted of one side of a largo ) Von covered with glazed tiles , and the fourth was formed by an unpaintcd wooden partition pierced by a eloor which opened apparently Into Count Tolstoi's library or work room. The lloor yas bare : the furniture , which was old- nshioncd in form , consisted of two or hreo plain chairs , a deep sofr. , or settle , ipholstcred with worn green monicco , ind a small cheap table without a cloth. Three pairs of antlers were fastened against the walls , ana upon ono of them lung an old slouch hat ami a white col on shirt similar to that which Count I'olstol had on. There was n marble bust in a nichu behind the settle , nnd two engraved portraits , ouo of Dickens and ono of Schopenhauer , were Imug against thu wall. "At lunch , " Mr. Konnan writes , "I net , for the fir. ° t time , Count Tolstoi's argo family , which consisted of tlio countess , a stntoly , dark-haired lady.wlio mist in her youth have been extremely } cautiful ; the eldest son , who had re cently been graduated from ono of the Russian universities ; the eldest daughter , i girl perhaps twenty years of ngo ; two Bright-faced nieces anel three or four younger children. There wore also pres ent a young man in a highly ornamental > aasant rostumc , worn evidently from iaprico or in imitation of the count , and .wo ladles of middle ngo whoso relations to the family 1 could not determine , but who were probably nothing more than nero frionels anel converts to the Tolstoi ihllosouhy. "The lunch passed quickly withbrigl.t , spontaneous conversation , in which all ioincd without the least appearance of : ormnlity or restraint , and in the course ofwhich Count Tolstoi himse-lf man- tested more boyishness andgayetv than I hail yet given him credit lor. When we had risen from the table ho produced and proceeded to sell at auction to the ugliest bidder a richly embroidered towel , the work of a peasant woman , which , ho said , had been brought to him as a present jut which he was unwilling to accept because the giver was very poor ami really in need of the money that the towel represented. Amid general laughter - tor Count Tolstoi's son and I , who wore tlio principal bidders , ran the price up by successive offers of live kopeks moro to two roubles and a half , when the auc tioneer , with non-professional candor , declared that that was too much ; that the American traveler in the course of the bidding had offered two roubles , which was about what the towel was worthand that consequently it was his eluty to award it to him. Young Tolstoi , with mock indignation , protcstcel against the unfairness of that sort ot an auction , but his motion for a now trial was overruled on the novel ground that the towel bo- longeel to the auctioneer , who therefore had tin unquestionable right to knock it down to any bidder whom he clioso. His son laughingly acquiesced in the ruling , anel the merry group which had gathered about the auctioneer dispersed. " * Some time after luncheon Count Tolstoi proposed a walk. A short distance from the house they mot Miss Tolstoi , the count's eldest daughter , dressed as a peasant girl , on her \vny homo from the Holds where she had been raking hay with the village girls of Yasnaya Polyana. The peasant dress of bright scarlet , out low in the neck all around , tlio braided hair , nnd the strings of largo colored glass beads which hung in festoons teens over her breast , changed her ap- pearancn so completely that Mr. Kcnnan did not recognixc her until her father called her by _ name. It aupenred that she shared his views with regard to manual toil and was accustomed to work in the fields of any poor neighbor \vlic was in need of assistance. Count Tolstoi himself had spent the morning in spreading manure over the land of n poor widow who lived near his estate , anel would have devoted the afternoon to the same occupation but for Mr. Ken- nan's visit. Mr. Kennan's account of the manner jn which Count Tolstoi spends his even ings will bo read with interest. Ho says : "Tho Counters Tolstoi invited mo to drink tea in her sitting-room , nnd there we were soon afterward joined by the count , who brought in with him a large lap-board , nn onen box , or tray , contain ing shoemaker's instruments and ap pliances , and nn unllnisliod pair of shoes , Seating himself quietly in a good lighthe laid the board across his knees , took up one of the shoes , and began to put on n henl , as if it were the most natural thing in the world for the author of 'Anna Kare-nninn'anil th ( ! owner of an estate worth 000,000 roubles , to spend his even ings in cobbling. I Imd already boem surprised so many times thai 'day ' that my nervous organization had nearly cense-d to respond to that sort of emotionaltimiilation ; but the diS' eovery that Count Tolstoi was a shoe maker had still enough piquancy anel grotosquencss nbout it to excite a lirsl thrill of wonderment , I seated myself di- roctlv opposite him , wherei I could occa sionally facilitate his labor by handing him the necessary implements , and he discoursed learnedly upon shoomnkingiu an art , nnd explained to me the line points of workmanship involved in put ting on a heel and the extreme dillicultj of trimming the solo neatly without cut ting the "upper. " HP seemed to fcei more honest pride in his ability to make a shoo than in his ability to write'\vai \ and I'eaco' or 'Tho Cossacks ; ' but aftei watching tlio progress of his labor foi half an hour with an unprejudiced , if ar uncritical eye , 1 decided , with all respcci for the versatility of his talents , that 1 would rather read ono of his novels thar wear a pair of his shoes.

This was a year ngo , and it is under stood that Kov. Sam Jones will shortly ovisit tliis city. It is probable that hu will be alone , if only for the reason that Mr. Small is a very sick mnn.
