better to retain the young man in his present
quarters until Wednesday, at which lime q
final examination was to have been made

clans in regard to the mans insanity, but q
latent hope was entertained that it would moi
be absolutely necessary to send their patient to
st. Peter, but this hope was dispelled on the
nights of Saturday and Sunday, at which
time the young man became extremely vic.
lent, tearing his wearing apparel and the bed
clothes to pieces, and breaking everything
that was breakable In his cell. Finally he be-
came SO franticaly wild that the sheriff was

to prevent him from doing himself any bodily
harm. William Wier is the name oil

years of age, and resident ofiAfton, in this
county. His present condition is attributed
to very severe run OF fever with which he
was attacked some time ago. Sheriff Holcomb
left on the noon train with his patient for St.
Peter
