Tuesday evening a tall, wel-dressed
young man dashed into The main office
of the New York Herold barking like a
dog and cluiching madly at everything
in reach. The few people in the office
promptly rushed to the street. One
man failed to get away, and when the
madman sprang at him saved himself
by landing hard blow on the mad
mans mouth, knocking him down. Six
men promptly sat on him and succeed
ed in holding him until three officers
dashed il. a hurry call for an ambu-
lance was sent out. The stranger
meanwhile quieted down and gave his
name as Jonn Brasseyton, of AZ Ludlow
stree cf. Mount Vernon. He also saiG
that he was released from the Pough-
keepSie Insane Asylum only last
month, where, he claimed, he had been
wronglully sent By his father. He
grew violent again as the officers at
tempted to gei him to the ambulance.
lie was taken to the New York bospi-
tai. Brassey:o :on was bitten by Il dog
some lime ago.
