q Canton Physician
Stran ange Actions of
George Belts.

The boarding house at $40 South
Market street was thrown into state
of intense excitement Friday after
noon through the strange actions of
George Belts, young boarder at the
house. He seemed to be suffering in
tensely and was lying on his back on
the floor of his room. The members
of the household wero thoroughly
scared and believed him to he dying.
DR.. Chamberlain was called in as he
had treated him during malarial i'll
ness. The doctor found the fellow ly-
ing fat upon his back oil the floor way
ing an arm in the air AMI talking
strangely. The doctor examined his
pulse and temperature, finding them
normal he sat down and administered
to the young man thorough calling
down. He saw that he was not i'll but
suffering fro ma fit of hysteria.
Belts jumped up when he was told
that he would have to behave or leave
house and ran to his bed and from he.
meath the pillow he drew razor. Dr.
Chamberlain grappled with him and
succeeded in holding his right hand so
that he could not open the blade. In
the meantime the noise attracted two
other men to the house and after an
exciting tussle the razor was taken
away from him. Belts calmei down
after this and showed no more dis.
position to fight,
For some time past The people in
| the house have had cause to- ,om
plain about the actions of Belts. He
has at various time had the women
! frightened to death and Is said to have
chased them around the house with a
revolver. They threatened to call the
patrol on the next manifestation OF
the kind.
George Belts Is employed at the Can
ton Saw works. He went through the
Cuban campaign with the Sth Ohio and
after his return was sick at varions
times with malarial fever contracted
on the island. But for year or more
has been to all appearances in good
health,

hustled him through Piedmont street
station. AS they entered the square
on their way up Seventh, the crowd
81 eatly augmented again met them,
and several times the man was gotten
away from the officers. He was lifted
bodily above the heads of the people
ana it seemed as If the men struggling
for him were trying to
TEAR HIM TO PIECES.
The mounted soldiers aided the po-
lice and eventually the object of the
crowds vengeance was landed behind
the bars.
1t was with difficulty that the people
were kept back from the building. When
the fellow was asked his name he
gave 1t as Carmine Diviata, but pay
envelope on his person bore the name
OF +. Mermcll The police learned that
h. was an Italian who had boen in this
country but a little over a year, and
that he was an cmployc of the Royal
Brick works of this city. He does not
speak English to any extent, and when
reporter interviewed him in Jail he
made the same apparently
OFFENSIVE SHRUG
every time he spoke. He did not even
krow the name of Roosevelt and had no
intention of giving offense. He ex-
piained this TO those who could under
stand Italian. The officers placed him
in jail for safekeeping and after the ex-
citement died out released him.
No one that is conversant with the
facts thinks that he made any offensive
rem arks, and had he been killed great
crime against an innocent man would
have been committed.
The manifestation showed the tenn
per of the crowd, and proved that the
assertion that if the assassin of Pres
ident Mckinley were in the city no
jail walls would save him from the
vengeance of an injured populace.
