in the assembly chamber, the conven-
ton having adjourned, q drunken man
named Hale strolled in. Sergeat-at-
Arms, Sherwood. was leading him out
when Hale made some rude remark
which Edward Barry. Democratic
joint delegate from Siskiyou, Trinity
and Modock counties, who was passing
by, took to himself. and drawing .
pocket knife he rushed on Hale and
cut him three times in the neck. Sher-
wood and delegates Tinnin and Farren
seized him when he cut the former
severely in the hand. he then paraded
up and down the chamber gesticulstine
and talking wildly. Officers soon az
rived and arrested him. Barry's friends
say he has previously been in an insane
asylum from the effects of drink, but
that he lately appeared to reform, and
being q man Of ability, became the
choice of the people of his section. His
presen: action is supposed to be the
result of the return of his maladv from
recent indulgence in liquor. His seat
will be declared vacant and an attempt
will be made to commit him to the
asylum again. His wife and family are
