this Investigation was quietly carried
ON over a period OF several months.
It is now completed. and The Times
Gays It's results bear out In abundant
proof the strongest charges OF fraud
and corruption honey-oombins the
whole pension system.
Nearly 1000 cases were Investigated
and this state OF things found to ex-

The Reform Republican party of

A YOUNG LIFE WRECKED BY IT
A Beautiful English Girl Suddenly
Becomes a Raving Maniac
in This City.

AdeplOrabe case Of insanity was passed
upon in the Probate court yesterday after
noon before Judge Callaghan and jury
required by law.
Miss Mabel Alice Margetts. young
English woman Of "A years, was the sub
ject OF the inquest.
Her father, John NJ Margetts. was the
unwilling atfaint as TO her insanity.
She was, up to last Saturday evening
at 9 o'clock, one of San AutOniO'S most
accomplished and intellectual young
women and had taught private classes as
gOverueSS for number OF years in this
city, numbering among her pupils some
of the children of the best families of the
city. Lately she had undergone the Sc
we're examination required for certificate
TO teach in our city schools, and the
testimony of her father went to
show that she had failed to
pass. Her health seemed to have always
been delicate, her form being frail and
her features, very regular and beautiful,
showing a high nervous temperament
and very sensitive disposition. The fail
ure TO pass probably unsettled her mind,
though her father says he noticed some
months ago great eccentricity about some
Of her action, among offers a DISPOSE
ton to become estTGuged, without cause,
from her friends.
Last Saturday night she grew
violent and continued so through
out the night, pounding On the floors and
tables and mumbiing to herself, or laugh
ing or shrieking Historically. Sunday
she cut of her heavy suit of beautiful
black hair, was violent toward her faith
er and the aid Of the nearest physician
was called in. She grew quiet with medl-
cine he administered, but yesterday grew
worse and the father was com
PEELED to take means to place her
under restraint. The family ha.
been unfortunate for a year past, the
mother and several children diving last
year. The father is a journalist by pro
tesSiOD, originally from EDgIs and but haC
located on Mission Ridge, south of Bean
vile, where he had small holding.
The young lady was adjudged insant
aud will be admitted to the Southwestern
Insane asylum for treatment and care.
