Lnndindy on Tentrrhooks.
Michael Curtain. nm Englishman. 40 years
old. who has lived for the last year in a fur
nished room ut Mrs. Emanuel D0mler's house,
203 Allen street, was removed to Bellevue
Hospital early last evening violently insane.
For two weeks his landlady and the other
dodgers have been leading life OF terror and
were many times on the point OF calling In the
police but they thought that Curtains all
ment was temporary. as he had been a
quiet, we'll behaved man until few months
ago when he first showed indications of In
sanity.
Curtains room was a strange sight when he
was finally dislodged. Nearly everything in
1t was broken or disarranged so com retely
the disorder
The mans illusions we're many and unusual.
The other night he went to his lnndlpdy and
told her that he was a, skilled mechanic and
one. Then he took q saw and cut the bed In
two from head to foot. stats and all
said he was real estuic dealer. and had lived
In Bcnsonhurst where no owned property.
Two months ago lie began to inform the PEG.
trades and professions. being. among other
things. a doctor, lawyer. dentist, mechanic.
A few days ago, 10 demonstrate his skill as
n surgeon, he cut his lower lip and then
on tho floor until one OF the dodgers pulled the
paper out. His next exploit was to throw his
stove, with the fire still in it. out OF the window
into the street.
Then he bought four oil stoves and burned
Up his bed clothing and wearing apparel eX-
planning that they were filled with bacili.
Curtain seemed to be well supplied with
money. Recently he went to a small grocery
In tho neighhorhood and bought and paid for
almost the entire stock. Mrs. DNmer told tho
grocpryman that Curtain was crazy. and tho
goods were not delivered.
IL took two doctors from Bellevue Hospital
and two policemen from the EldridRe street
station to get Curtain out OF his room. and
they had to use n straitjacket to keen MIN
quiet in the am hulance. He told the hospital
officials that his brother law. Thomas J.
Hamilton. lived on Long Island. They found
1888 and two watches Ia his pockets.
