Reasoning Lunatic-

New York Recorder, Dec 70
John klensch, who was committed 10
the insane ward Of Bellevue hospital last
Wednesday by Justice Kelly, was pro-
nounced yesterday by Dr.. Douglass. head
OF the insane ward, dangerous Iuuatic.
4 thorough examination further disclosed
the fact that klenseh is OF she same type
OF mailman as Roth, who shot al Dr.. Hall,
and Doherty, who prosecuted Mary An
dersOn and subsequently killed Dr.. Floyd.
His mania is ike that Of Armand, who
wrote lettsrs, and Eric Charles Pearson,
who was known among medical men as
the ''ParaDoiac," or 3 reasoning maniac.
klensch is the man whom Citizen George
Francis Train, the great apostle Of psyche
ism, took under his wing few years ago.
Previous 10 meeting Train he claimed no
place as his home.
As soon as he had ingratiated himself
into the good grAces Of the Old Psyche he
styled himself a resident OF the metropolis.
and in a few months cut loose from his
benetactOr and started out SIS an apostle of
Psychic force. He went around the world
as George Francis Trains secretary. They
kept on good terms until they reached Ia
coma, where hIensch was dropped and
compelled TO travel on foot the entire dis
lance from Tacoma 10 New York, stopping
in Chicago by request Of the authorities Of
the Windy CITY, who thought he was in
sane When klensch arrived in this city
he hunted I'D Mr.. Train, and in some IN
known manner managed - win his affec-
ton once more, and then established him
self as his secretary. But be did not hold
the position long, as be printed a card in
which be styled himself Universal

The last two words were The cause of the
final separation Of Klensch and Train. as
the latter could not stand man who
claimed that he, and he alone, knew"
Finally Klensch entered the fasting con-
test gotten NJ by Mr.. Huber. the museum
man, rs one OF the competitors Of Stratton.
Il IS also said OF klensch thai he mag

millions. He constantly annoyed his
friends about money matters. ana on one

to honor him. This is a peculiar thing.
It is also apparent that the girl is of the
same mind-she distrusts until the par
son says the word, and then-then she
admits that she might as well have told
them all before.
It is the old mans idea that all such
gigling monkey work is out of place. Ii
a man is going to buy a horse or build a
house or take a trip he does not care who
knows it-but if he is going to get mar
ried, nine out of ten times he will lie
like a horse thief and swear that there is
nothing in it.
The question arises: Is he ashamed of
tor, what's the matter? Maybe he re-
CARDS it as being no ones business but
his own, and if that is the idea, then per-
haps he has a right to stammer and lie
about it.
We do not know.
