Running "Amuck."

A frightful example of that mysteri-
Gus mania so common among people
of the Malay race and SO rare among
other races, which drives the maniac to
run amuck-viz., to attempt to murder
all with whom he comes in contact

pore not long ago. Even there such
an appalling incident has not been

fury. A Malay named Hadji brain,
who was sort of agent in organizing
pilgrimages to Mecca, had arrived in
the colony few days previously. One
morning he received letter from Nee
ca, informing him of the death of q
daughter who had gone on pilgrim
age there. While sitting on bed with
the Malay owner of the house in which
he lodged, and boy reading this let
ter, he suddenly jumped up, seized q
creese, and stabbed the Malay twice.
The latter appears to have stood up,
tottered, and then fallen headlong down
stairs, where he lay with his face
crushed up against the wall, his viscera
protruding from terrible cash in the
stomach, while another deep wound

the alarm. But the maniac escaped by
the roof, and began to run amuck. He
crossed the close, went up stairs to o
house opposite, and stabbed two Malay
women, one of them fatally. Thence
he ran by back way into the street.
and attacked two Cinnamon, killing
one instantly. He pursued his way up
the street, the natives being afraid to
approach him, and, after wounding
several, he was felled by native po-
liceman by blow from pole which
happened to be at hand, and was imme-
diately manacled. He had wounded
six persons in all, and killed three
outright, in the course of few min
utes. One of the wounded, King, is
not expected to recover. After his ar
rest the murderer spoke quite ration
ally, and on being asked why he had
killed and wounded SO many persons
replied that he did not know. He was
taken to the hospital and was pro-
nounced unfit to be then taken before q
magistrate.
