Escaped From the Insane Asylum.


Michael Curran, who has been con-.
lined in the insane asylum at Yankton
Tor the past fouryears, came home rath-
er unexpectedly Tuesday evening. A
letter from the authorities at Yankton
said that Michael had escaped from the
asylum week ago and that they had
been unable to get any trace of him.
Mike was employed outside the asvlum
and as ne was tractable patient he
was not watched as closely as others.
Taking advantage of this Mike was en-
abled to regain his freedom, of which
he considers he has been wrongfully de-
prived in the past years. Wednesday
night the neighbors say that Mike be-
came quite violent and threatened to
Kill his wife and forced her to give up
her pension papers, which she held as
his guardian, and $40 in money. Mike
was placed in Jail this morning and the
asylum authorities notified to come for
him. Mixes insanity is only temporary
and there are days that he is rational
and can talk intelligently, but he is
not reliable in this respect and for that
reason he is confined at the asylum, the
superintendent of which says that Mike
is quite vicious when violent and that
his case is practically incurable. Several
years ago Mike was Sent home on a
months trial in the belief that he was
nearly cured, but after he had been
here aweek it was soon learned that
he was as bad as ever sad he was re-
turned to the asylum. An attache of
the insane asylum came up from Yank-
ton aad took Michael back Friday
morning.

A LITTLE LIFE GONE.

The Little Baby of Mrs. c. f. Coffee Died
at the Milwaukee Depot Wednesday.
Mrs. G. F. Coffee, who is better
known as Kittie Althen, arrived We'd
nesday at $50 o'clock on the DELAYED
train from the east from Elgin, Ill, ana
with her was her three month old baby.
Mrs. Coffee was on her way to Mt.
Vernon to visit her parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. John Althen, who live near that
town. On arriving in town Mrs. Coffee
remained in the depot until the west
train was made up. She stated that
before reaching Mitchell the little one
showed signs of sickness, but previously
had been thoroughly we'll. A sugges-
tion was made that some medicine
should be secured which would afford
it relief. The poor little one cried in
cessantly and all efforts to hush it were
Intellectual. The medicine was admin
istered to the baby but it seemingly
had no effect and as the train was
nearly ready to start Mrs. Coffee took
the baby on the train where few mo-
ments after the little one died. The
grief of the mother was pitiful to wit
ness and her eyes were not the only
ones in the crowd which were wet with
tears. The poor mother and the life
less little one were taken to the Dix
house and Thursday afternoon they were
removed to the home OF DR.. and Mrs.
Bracy, where they will await the ar
rival of Mr.. Coffee, who was sent for
and arrived Friday afternoon. Mrs.
Coffee is we'll known in this com.
munity where she has taught school
for number of years.
Funeral services over the remains of
Mr.. and Mrs. c. F. Coffee's little babv
were held at the residence of DR.. and
Mrs. r. B. Bracy Saturday morning at
$50 o'clock, which was attended by
friends OF the family. Rev. Burleigh
OF the Congregational church had
charge o. the ceremonies and Miss Sils-
by and Mr.. Daniels sang seveaal appro-
pirate musical selections. Mr.. Coffee
departed east for Elgin with the body

South Dakota s New Map.

A copy of the new divisional map of
South Dakota, issued under the direc-
tion of the South Dakota immigration
Association has been received by Frank
Weller, the county director, which has
been left at THE REPUBLICAN for the
inspection of any body who wishes to
see it. Mr.. Weller secured $75 by sub
scription among the citizens who de-
frayed the Expense of having Dawson
county written up in book
which was to have been published but
owing to so few counties responding to
the call for financialassistance the book
idea was abandoned and the maps were
issued instead, which, however, were
paid for out of private money. Davi-
son county's contribution is still held by
Mr.. Weller and it remains with the
contributors, we presume, as to what
will be done with it. The maps will be
sold for ST 90 per hundred. The state
is divided into four sections and each
section is distinguished by colors.
Yellow represents the Big Sioux valley;
green the artesian basin; pink for the
grazing lands and red for the mineral
district in the Black Hills. At the foot
of the map is an adequate description of
each section written by Prof. J. E. Todd
state geologist, who also located the
lines between the four natural divisions
of the state. The map is approved by
the secretary of state, president of the
immigration association, the state ge-
ologist and engineer of irrigation, whose
signatures appear on the map. With
these maps distributed over the east
much attention will be attracted to
South Dakota.

Came Home Insane.

Late last fall Dr. and Mrs. S. H. Mel
cher went to Sequachee, Tenn, to
spend the winter. Yesterday they ar
rived home and are staying at the San
bourn house, Mrs. Melcher's mental
faculties being greatly impaired and is
practically insane. DR.. Melcher said
that she first commenced to show signs
OF insanity about two weeks ago and
wants to destroy everything she can
place her hands upon. Before leaving
here Mrs. Melcher was fine looking
lady and the change wrought in her
appearance since her insanity is some
thing remarkable.

gained his worldly possessions under
methods which were questionable.
The great difficulties that men have
to encounter are that they do not know
what they want. The world knows
what it wants; it is exacting in its de-
mands and we must pay for it. But
though we gain our success can we take
it beyond the grave? Desires born OF
earthly wants have no place in the
world above and as we go down in our
declining years and are meta the thres-
hold of the grave we must give an ac-
count of our attainments.
OF all successes the speaker consider
ed that the man whose success in life
brought him in close relation with the
kingdom OF God was the one whose am
bition was more fully realized and his
life more fully rounded out. No sue
cess is not worthy the name that does
not make us better, men and women;
true success is no Aladdin's palace
builtin day but is the result. of life
long application to an e1d. So that in
endeavoring to attain success always,
remember to move in the path that
brings you in close touch with the
throne above.
Father Maher's concluding remarks
were addressed directly to the gradu-
ating class as whole and again to each
sex. He told them that the education
which they had just acquired was the
foundation and that the superstructure
was to be filled in by self-education
which would be acquired during the
course of their lives. He councilled the
young men to adopt the religious ad-
monition "Seek Ye the kingdom of God"
and when you chose vocation to stick
to it all through life; give to it the best
talents of your nature and what you
undertake do it we'll.
10 the young ladies Father Maher
presented some excellent ideas for con-
sideration and urged them to maintain
their purity and innocence through
their lives and to exert their influence
in reclaiming members of the opposite
sex from divergent paths into the road
of religious inclinations. The fulfill
ment of this would, in the speakers
estimation, reward women bountifully
for her work in life.
Father Maher's address was listened
to by the splendid audience with care
full attention and his words were utter
ed with a directness and decisiveness
which carried strong conviction. His
ideas were expressed in fine language
and showed that he was possessed of a
broad and cultured intellect. We have
heard Father Maher speak on several
public occasions recently and in each
instance he has shown a pronounced.

pressed being his convictions as he had
