| AN UNFORTUNATE-On Saturday morn-
ing last a rather fine looking young
man of about twenty-five, stepped from
an east bound train and lie sistered at the
Sank Centre House in hand that
showed his familiarity with the pen,
NJ. M. Maloney, Trout Run, Pa. He
walked around the. streets during the
early morning hours attracting little
attention, but after breakfast he showed
unnistakable signs of being wrong in
the head" He wandered off toward the
middle bridge, and meeting William Can
field he told him in an excited manner
that he (Maloney) was being pursued
by band of men, and that he was
wanted" tor something he had done at
Grand Forks. He seemed very much
frightened, and Young Canfleld accom-
panied him to town where he was turned
over to officers Carr and Doty. To them
he told all sorts of incoherent stories, all
mixed up with partial narratives of MUIR
ders and assaults. 1t was very evident
|
ken to a room in the hotel. where he slept
for a couple of hours and awakened ap-
| parently all right. He said he had been
a telegraph operator at Grand Forks,
and this statement was verified by tele-
graghinp there, the reply stating that he
| had been discharged for drunkenness. This
| threw flood of light upon what had
been suspected. He was released but
| little later he was as bad as ever. and it
was thought best to lock him up and DR..
Dubois was called in to examine him
| He acknowledged that he had been drink
ing heavily, and the doctor thought he
| had been suffering from delerum tremens,
| which had been worse. An examination
showed that he had sustained a wound
behind and involving the lett ear, his ex-
PLANTATION being that he had been stabbed.
| When, how, where and by whom were
| facts he concealed. His body was sun
burned to blister and i'll many places
was raw and badly scratched, and his
feet were sore and torn. He said that on
Monday he was at Dalton and during
the hight he escaped from the hotel with
no clothing but his pants and one stock
ing, and that he was pursued into the
country and robbed He wandered about
all day in the sun, his flesh being burned
and lacerated, and at night he returned
to the hotel. He was taken to the St.
Peter asylum on Tuesday.
1t is case as peculiar as it is sad
Nothing is known of him beyond what
ne stated himself. That he was suffering
| from mania a potu was evident.
