HE WENT INSANE.
A Case Which Shows Some Peculiar
EeatureS.

A Case Which Shows Some Peculiar
Features.
Patrick Maloney, Waterman at the
Big Blackfoot Lumber company yards,
went violently insane Friday night
while on duty and had to be taken to
the county Jail. The case appears to
have some peculiar characteristics. The
attention of Police Officers Peters and
Foley was called to Maloney by persons
living in the vicinity of the lumber
yards. They found him locked in the
Office of the company, singing and
dancing in most frantic manner.
They eventually succeeded in getting
in and cajoled the unfortunate man
into accompanying them to the county
Jail.
Maloney went insane once before
and had to be sent to the asylum. Since
that time he has been all right till very
recently. A few days ago he arrested
a man named Joe Long on a charge OF
committing some depreciation at the
yards and appeared against him in the
police court as the prosecuting witness.
e. O. jackson, who defended Long.
cross-examined Maloney and asked II Il
was not a fact that he had once been
an inmate of the insane asylum. The
question was intended as an insinua-
ton that Maloney made the arrest
through not being exactly right in his
mind and his friends say he has brood
ed over the matter ever since. They
incline to the belief that this is the
cause of his mind becoming unbalanced
again.

much mark of high stage of civil

You may take it for a fact that all the
wild and inferior races do not snore
The doctrine of the survival of the fit

the savage person who vocaliZes his

II have been a great deal among wild

the whole outfit of the savages had
not left their own houses and squatted
down on the grass where they could
look into our camp and see what was
going on. 1t was the first time in all
their lives they had ever heard man

they did, for they sized it up that some

A WOMAN THE CAUSE
OF Trouble Between j. j. McTeague an,
Frank DelatOur.

OF Trouble Between j. j. McTeague and
Frank Delatour.
Trouble between J. ]. McTeague, a
clerk employed at Gilligan's grocery
store in West Granite street, and
Frank Delatour, a miner, about a
woman, led to the arrest of McTeague
last evening on q warrant charging him
with second degree assault.
According to statements made by in
terested parties on both sides, it APP
pears that Delatour claims the woman
in the case as his contract wife. Nc
league has been paying attention to
the woman and some little time ago
he took her and one Of her lady friends
for a ride. At South Butte the horse
he was driving acted badly, and fearing
an accident, McTeague let his conpan-
warming up exercise. The young
women stood on the walk waiting,
when Delatour came up and took his
wife to task for riding with McTeague.
The latter drove up to take the young
women in again and Delatour took hold
of the one he claims as his wife by con-
tract, and attempted to prevent her
from getting in.
1t is said that when McTeague got
out to take a hand, Delatour drew a
knife and threatened to kill both Nc
league and the woman If they at
tempted to go away together At this
McTeague drew a gun on Delatour
The latter backed down and McTeague
then handed his gun to bystander and
proceeded to give Delatour thrashing
This all occurred fully 10 days ago. but
for some reason Delatour did not take
any legal steps till yesterday, when he
went before Justice Lewis at Walker
vile and swore out a warrant charging
McTeague with second degree assault.
AS McTeague was arrested too late for
his friends to go to Walkerville and put
up bond, he was obliged to spend the
night at the county jail

She BREAKS The RECORD
Worlds Champion in Surviving
Poison.
ANGRY WHEN SHE TOOK IT
Ada Turner Swallowed Four Ounces of
Chloroform and Three Ounces OF
Laudanum-There Had Been
Quarrel.

Ada Turner, variety actress at the
Casino, whose husband. Charles M.
Turner, is a musician, holds the worlds
championship record for taking poison
and surviving its effects. She swal-
lowed three ounces Of laudanum and
four ounces of chloroform yesterday
afternoon, yet will live to tell the
story of her record breaking feat. The
poisonous draught was taken in a fit
Of anger, and it is therefore the nat
ural supposition that 1t was swallow
ed with suicidal intentions, though the
husband declared it was wholly acct
dental.
The couple have for some time occu-
pied a suite of apartments in the Wey-
erhorst block, corner of Idaho and
Galena streets. It is known that for
some time their conjugal relations have
not been of the most blissful. Friends
of the pair at the Casino state that
quarrels between them have been fire.
quent, and it is also said that the
young woman has been very despond-
ent for some time over her difficulties
with her husband. Yesterday the
couple were together in their rooms
and one of their periodical quarrels
ensued. The young woman got up and
went into the rear apartment of the
suite, and a moment later called in to
her husband, saying: "Good-bye, Char
lie''
Turner jumped up, but reached his
wife's side too late to stay her hand.
DR.. Weyerhorst was at once sum-
moned and later DR.. Haviland was
called. The great quantity of poison
acted so quickly that to all appear
ances the woman was dead, and was
pronounced beyond human assist
ance. Later, however, a reaction set
in and symptoms of life manifested
themselves. DR.. Hanson was then
sent for, and he worked over the
young woman for several hours, after
which he announced that she would
James hospital where she remains in
a stupefied condition, but is out of
danger
The husband, when seen last even
ing, insisted that the poison had been
taken by his wife accidentally, but it
is rather difficult to understand how
she could have taken three ounces Of
one deadly poison and four ounces Of
another, wholly by accident. The
friends of the couple at the Casino
are authority for the statement that
a temporary separation between them
had occurred recently and that the
woman at that time remarked to Man
ager Maurice Louis that life was not
worth living. The girls actor friends
do not hesitate to express the opinion
that she took the poison with the in
tention of ending her domestic diff
culties. The young woman procured
the drugs by sending messenger to
Rose Hoskin's drug store.
