Last Saturday Mrs Louis Keaton was
brought down from Caleb, Grant county,
and examined for insanity yesterday. She
was accompanied by her husband and sister.
Mrs. Thos Gates. Tne luRdtico inguirendo
was held before Judge BiAkely, and d
Hollster was the examining physician.
Mrs. Keaton's health has not been good for |
some time, and, 1t is believed. as soou as
this is restored her mental faculties wilt |
regain their normal condition. Sh4 is about |
80 years OF age, has three children, and Is
lady of excellent reputation Her form OF |
insanity is in the shape of fear that her
husband or children will be hurt, and she
becomes hystercal when they are out of her
sight, The reason that she was brought
here instead of Canyon CITY was that the
fatigue of the journey to hat place and re-
turn would be too debIlitatlng, and the
judge said that Grant county would pay the
extra ex .ense to have her TX imined at The
Dalles, where she could Immediately take
the cars for Salem.
There IL not much doubt that the phos-
porus in fish expands the cellular tissue of
the gray matter of the brain, and for that
reason this diet should he indulged IN by
persons engaged in intellectual pursuits.
With the many attractions of The Dalles,
not the least are the facilities for troutIng
offered by the mountain streams in the vi
cinity, and during the season there are
many means of recreation for persons of
habits. 1t was after the sunset
hour last evening, when shadows fell on
glen and dale, that buggy drove in front
of the residence of an overtsxed disciple of
the quill, and occupying the seat were Re
corder Dufur and Mr.. Frank Connolly. A
basket was displayed. filed almost to over
flowing with the finest specimens of
speckled trout we have seen this year, and
the editor was informed that these sported
in the Impid waters of Five MIe few
horrs since. Messrs. Dufur and Connolly
are fig throwers who are not afraid to chal-
lenge competition. and always furnish evil
dence to prove their statements.
