young mans fall was rapid. Several
people who knew him became satisfied
weeks ago that his mind was unbal-
anced. Indeed. his conduct, In many
instances, was not that of sane man.
He had several imaginary grievances
he was persistent in his threats directed
at three or four people who never had
dreamed Of having anything to do with
his affairs or of harming him. In some
quarters surprise was expressed yes
terday that the man had not been
placed under restraint. In fact, his
case had been carefully followed.
Weeks ago. il was found next TO impos-
sible to establish a case of insanity
against him; by his own lucid action in
most matters he would have brought
the charge into grave doubt To have
attempted to put him under bonds to
keep the peace would have resulted in
brief incarceration, leaving him to come
out the more morbid along certain
lines. He agreed peacefully to leave
town, and he went only to return
stealthily later on. Then he did that
which permitted the issuing of war
rant for his arrest; the officers and
others had been in quest of him. and
the belief was that he would be cap
tured or killed Saturday night.
1t is not for a newspaper to pass on
Barneyback's condition and say whether
he was insane or not. Insanity is
broad word: II is made to cover many
irrational conditions in mems minds.
An eminent New York specialist has
lately said that the man who is insane
is always a dangerous man-there is no
predicting what such a man will do, be-
cause his mental processes are not nor
NAL Barneyback confessedly was dan
gerous, yet IL was not altogether a sim
pie matter to put him out of harms
way, except through a summary act,
which, we believe. in public opinion
would have been fully justified. How
ever, il is doubtful whether, on a
formal hearing under the processes of
law, medical testimony would have
established a clear case Of insanity

himself terror TO several people in thi,

Keeping Track of Them.

1t is worth while to keep track OF the
men who were principals in the Trans
vaal troubles-several of them have
had time to put in an appearance at
an available point on the globe.
Cecil Rhodes is in England. lie has
been warmly welcomed by his friends,
but he is shy Of the newspaper re-

Jameson had a royal welcome In
London last Tuesday. Crowds gath

There is much talk about the chances
Of the peerage for Rhodes and Jane
son; this talk is said to have its spring
in circles that are close to the queen.
Last week Lady Warwick wrote to the
Times an ardent letter in commenda-
ton of Jameson; all accounts agree
that his reception on his arrival in
England was an enthusiastic affair.
Hammond. the American engineer.
who has been calling loud on the
whole United States for help, is out
on bail and in complete safety. The
most suggestive contribution respect
ing him came yesterday morning in a
telegram dated at Chicago. i'm which
several Michigan men who lately left
johannesburg insist that Hammond
deserves no sympathy. Their story is
that, during several weeks before the
Jameson raid. the officers of the min
ing company were smuggling rifles and
ammunition into the country in the
bottom of coke cars. The Michigan
men were ordered to arm against the
Boer government or leave the country.
They preferred to leave, and they ar
rived home Unexpectedly.

SATURDAY. Nights Affair.

The murderous assault made by
oscar Barneyback, Saturday night. and
his own suicidal act that speedily fol-
lowed, startled the people of Anaconda
the more because. since the day OF its
incorporation as a municipality. this
city has been singularly free of capital
crimes
No man condones Barneyback's con-
duct: harsh as it may seem TO say it,
the sentiment Of the community was
that the best thing had happened. when
word went about town that he had
made a successful attempt at suicide
and this sentiment found frequent ex-
preston. There was no mystery about
the assault at the corner Of Fifth and
Locust streets, in which the would he

20 his murderous act; his crime could
have been fastened upon him uner-
ringly.
Barneyback had boasted that. with
his revolver. he would dispose q him

shots at his victim. and Il transpires
that all was not smooth for him as he
hurried westward through Third street
He met two or three men in that street
and attempts were made TO bring him

After He Is Out.

Now is the time when General Harri-
son can get a great deal of comfort for
a little money by sending a sixty-day
subscription 10 some leading news
clipping bureau. Perhaps some of the
Standards readers need to be told what
this sort of bureau is.
In several cities Of the country are es-
Establishments which make IL a business
TO get hold Of a large number of news
papers from which they clip the refer
ences TO men who are in public life or
in any professional career These es-
adjustments have regular subscribers.
For instance. Senator Hill, or Chauncey
NJ. Depew or John Wanamaker pays
say a dollar a month and the bureau
forwards TO the subscriber all the ref
erences made 10 him in large number
of newspapers In most instances, the
patron of the bureau wants sent to him
all that the bureau finds-the compli-
ments and the criticisms alike. Hun
dreds of men whose names are known
TO the public patronize the clipping bu-
reau.
AS We nave Ihtut Itlcldl i1oA a
son could get comfort out of these clip
pings, especially if he sends word that
extracts from Mckinley and Reed or
gans are preferred. It's wonderful how
these organs have warmed up TO the
General since he gave out his letter
announcing himself not in the presiden-
tial race. They laud him TO the skies
they load his administration with
praise; they breath the hope that the
next occupant Of the white house will
be a man of the dignity, the ability
and the uprghtness that distinguished
the Harrison era. They lay it on thick

And around him were acquaintance who,

And learned that "Solon hudulesoh mas
