Lawyer Queen aud Mr.. Ringo went to
Truckes Meadows on business last
Friday. BY mistake they walked to the
house OF Pat Curran, q lunaiic recently
discharged from the Stockton asylum.
Cuirsn was supposed to be cured. but
sincs his release has devoted all his time
to sharpening his razor. an occupation
not usually fascinating to q a o man.
Curran caught sight Of the two approach
ing the house. and started out to meet
the invaders, arming himself with q
iopg-handlsd, round pointed shovel.
Just then Curran's wife appeared at the
door. and motioned the visitors away.
Curran had commenced threatening
demonstrations With his weapon, and
taking the hint, they sought safety In
dight. The old gentleman with the
shovel started In hot pursuit. The race
must have been intensely exciting. The
boys could feel the cold point OF the
shovel running up aud down their backs
- they fed. Away they went through
the ~saesbrush. the mailman In full CRY.
At the nrst quarter Queen had the lead
By Q cheek. closely pushed By Ringo,
with old shovsler closing up the gap. As
the half mile was reached Queen fell be-
hind. and Rinso led by a nscktis. The
old man, heavily handicapped as he
was. labored heavily. bnt was doing his
best to reach the fugitives with tho
shovel. Before the next quarter was
passed wind began to tell. and the old
man was distancsd within the mile. The
boys. however, kept right on. aud made
three mile heats In succession. before
they felt SURE that the race was won.
They are Of the opinion that Curran
should be put under restraint.
