sisted for Several Days on Grapes.
FRESNO, CAL, Aug. 22.-Last Monday
evening E. P. Irwin, So years of age, dis
appeared from DR.. Hare's sanitarium, of
which he was an inmate. He was very
feeble. and serious fears were entertained
for his safety. Mr.. Irwin has many rela-
tives and friends here, and they have been
making diligent search for him since
Tuesday morning, fifteen men being out
in different directions from the city.
Tonight word was received from Shield s
ranch f n miles north of town, that the
old man had been found. He was out of
his mind, and talked incoherently about
some one being after him to kill him.
When proffered food he ravenously de-
youred it. He walked out to the Shield s
place on Monday night, after leaving the
sanitarium, and has been hiding iii the
vineyard ever since, subsisting on grapes.
He says that he left the sanitarium because
somebody was trying to kill him.

TACOMA MINISTER DEAD,
Caught a Cold While Making
the Ascent of Mount
Rainier.
1t Settled on His Kidneys and
Through Neglect Brought on
misunderstanding.

TACOMA, WASH, Aug. Prev. I. T.
Miller, pastor of the Fowler Methodist
Episcopal Church, died here to-day.
When Rev. w. NJ. Jefferis made the
ascent of Mount Rainier and preached a
week ago last Sunday from it's topmost
peak the Sermon on the Mount" to a
small party of mountain climbers, Rev. Mr..
Miller started to make the ascent to assist
in the services. He took severe cold at
Camp Misery the night before the final
climb and it settled in the kidneys. There
was no physician within forty miles. He
suffered intense pain and had to be car
ried down the mountain by his comrades.
He bravely remained alone while the re-
mainder of the party continued the ascent,
and the sermon was preached according to
schedule.
On the way to this city blood-poisoning
set in and attained such progress that it
could not be arrested. To add to the
misery of the descent the party got lost in
the fog and wandered aimlessly around.
Rev. Mr.. Miller was born in 1882 in
Champaign County, Illinois. He served
as chaplain of the Ninety-fourth Illinois,
