A DESPERATE STRUGGLE.
Sergeant RandoIph's Struggle with
Demented S5an.

Il Demente6 S5an.
Sergeant Abe Randolph had a des-
perate struggle last night with a man
who is temporarily insane.
1t seems that Allan Hilton, a re-
spected and estimaIble citizen residing
at the corner of Third and G streets,
has been subject of late to epileptic
fits and this affected his mind He was
under guard last night but managed to
escape from home and came down
town. He accosted Officer Hemphin
and drew a revolver and then went ON
towards Brigham street.
Sergeant Randolph went after him
and, on Qyertaking him, placed him
under arrest. Hilton, who is a power
full man, resisted and, drawing his re-
volver, was evidently prepared to
shoot, but the officer seized his hands
and q desperate struggle followed. A
young man who was escorting two
young ladies down the street came to
the sergeants assistance and, taking
the gun from Hilton, gaze it to the Of
ficer, who then took his man to head
quarters.

HIS LAST POEM.

In the highlands in the country places,
Where the old, plain men have rosy faces
And the young fair maidens
Quiet eyes;
Where essential silence cheers and blesses,
And forever in the hill recesses
Her more lovely music
BroodS and dies.
Oh, to mount again where erst haunted,
Where the old red hills are bird enchanted,
And the low green meadows
BRIGHT with sward;
And when evening dies, the million tinted,
And the night has come, and planets glinted
Lo, the valley hollow
Lamp bestarredl
Oh, to dream, oh, to awake and wander
There, and with delight to take and render
Through the trance of silence
Quiet breath;
Lo, for there, among the flowers and grasses
Only the n.ightier movement sounds Az
passes,
Only winds and rivers,
Life and death
