Grief Over fAe Death of Her Son
Causes Her To Become Raw
fhg Maniac.

Grief over the 1eeth of her only child
caused Mrs. Mary A.IRoss to lose her rea-
son this morning, ana she was removed to
st. Elizabeth's HOSPITAL for the Insane
shortly after daybreak Three hours after
she was conveyed from her home, at 135
California street northeast, to the hospital,
a raving maniac, the funeral of her son
took place from St. Joseph's Church The
Rev. Father Schmitt was celebrant at the
requiem mass, but he made no reference to
the sad event of the morning.
Mrs. Ross is fifty-two years old, and is
the widow of Policeman John r. Ross, who
died about ten years ago. John Francis
Ross, their only son, was an electrician.
He was twenty years and ten months old
His mother has worked in the government
printing office for a number of years.
He Suffered Alone.
Tuesday night the young man became.
seriously i'll Of Bright's disease, and during
the night he suffered alone in his room, not
wanting to disturb his mother. When
morning came and he came to the conclu-
sion that his life was greatly endangered
he called his mother to his bedside. He
told her of his condition and his fears.
Physicians were at once summoned, but
the young mans life could not be saved.
Early Thursday night death ended his suf-
ferings.
Mrs. Ross grieved sorely over the death,
declaring that she had been left alone in
the world. Relatives shared her sorrow,
her son being a general favorite among
them. When the heartbroken mother came
to notify her friends through the news
papers of her sons death she expressed
her feelings in these lines:
Home is sad o God, how dreary;
Lonesome, lonesome every spot.

Relatives Express Sympathy.


The relatives of the mother and son visit
ed the home, subsequently, and did the best
they could to comfort the bereaved wo-
man. To them she told the story of her
boys last illness, and the many repetitions
Of the sad story finally told on her nervous
condition. Last night she was more than
usually depressed, although she showed no
signs of a mental break down. Several OF
her relatives remained at the house with
her last night. She was unable to obtain
much sleep and shortly after midnight her
rambling conversation warned her relatives
that more serious. trouble might be expect
ed. About o'clock this morning physt-
clans were hurriedly summoned, and two
of them responded to the calls. Morphine
was administered, but the drug absolutely
failed to quiet the patient. Mrs Ross be-
came violent and succeeded In smashing
several articles in the room before she
could be restrained.
Members Of the families Of Theodore B.
Hibbs and o. A. Hamblett, in the adjoin-
ing houses, heard the commotion, but they
had no idea Of the seriousness Of the situa-
tion until they wereuealled to the home of
Mrs. Ross to render assistance. 1t was
then about 4:30 O'Clock, and they found the
woman in room onfthe upper floor, where
several relatives, all women, were doing
their best to hold her. She was screaming
and accusing different people Of having
killed her son. Mr.sHibbs and Mr.. Ham
Olett TOOK charge OF sner, out She dealt the
former a blow on his face. and with an
other blow knocked Mr.. Hamblett down.
Finally the men succeeded in getting her
tied to the bed with Ipniow covers Police
man Walter Brady, also a neighbor, called
at the house to render assistance and it
was suggested that she call an ambulance
and several officers TO remove the unfort u
nate woman to place where she could get
proper treatment. -2--
Promptz ActhDn Necessary.
Relatives in the house suggested that the
woman's brother and sister be conf 1red
with before any action was taken, but
Mr.. Hanblett informed them that prompt
action was necessary for the good Of the
woman. The authorities at St. Elizabeth's
agreed to take her, and it was only after
serious trouble that she was removed from
the house where the body Of her son was
lying. She reached the asylum about
o'clock and the doctors took charge of her.
Many friends and relatives Of the family
attended the funeral of the young man
later in the morning. The interment was
at Mount Olivet
When Mrs Ross was placed under the
care of physician at the hospital she was
quiet, although she was still in nervous
condition. She was able to converse with
the doctor and tell him of the death of her
son. Mrs. Ross mother, Mrs. Ellen Shane,
and her sister, Miss Ellen Shane, are pa
tients at the insane asylum. They have
been under treatment there number of
years.

STRANGE SEA LIFE.
Big Wormlike Creatures That Explode
After Being Captured. i

What is believed to be hitherto un-
known species of the spoon-worm has
been pumped up from the depths of
Elliott bay by the dredger in opera ton
near the Centennial MILL
The animal found in the bay is of
llCndescript appearance. 1t resembles
an oblong transparent bag filled with
water and varies from three to five
inches in length. 1t about as thick.
generally. as mans thumb. At each
end are several circles of sharp bristles
colored like brass and seemingly as
hard. Thes care believed to be its de-
fensive weapons. The bristles at one
end are stronger and more numerous
than at the other. Other species have
the bristles only at one end.
These peculiar animals We're first
brought to the surface about two weeks
ago by the dredger of the Seattle and
Lake Washington Waterway company.
They We're sucked up by the pumps
from a depth of from thirty to thirty
five feet and carried through the dis
charge pipes to the point where the fill
ing is being made. There they were
found by members of the dredger's
crew, whose curiosity was aroused by
the appearance of the worms. A number
of the company.
To a reporter Captain w. f.. Roberts
of the dredger stated yesterday that the
species was found in schools He be,
lieves that they live on rocks, and every
time they have been pumped up so far
they have been accompanied by pieces
OF coal and coal which had been dumped
into the bay from ships discharsing
their ballast.
I'VE find none for several days" he
said, land then they come in a bunch.
They appear to be able to travel on any
side, and wriggle along like a common
earthwOrm. AS far as l can learn if in
not exactly known whether they live
upon the surface of the sea bottom or
beneath it. We always find them sub
merged, and 1 believe they will die If
kept out of their natural element very
long. They live on smaller worms and
marine vegetation. l should judge that
they do have much vitality, although
they cut some queer antics when out of
the water.
A specimen of the worm sent to the
observation-disclosures was submitted for ex-
animation to Professor kincaid of the
geological chair at the state university.
The specimen had been kept over night
in an empty cigar box, and when exam
| iEed was found to have exploded, ONLY a
fragment of dried skin remaining. Pro-
fes&or Kincaid pronounced it a species

allied to earthworms. There is a large
difference between them, however, as
the sea species does not have his body
divided into compartments. Professor
Kncad states that the specimen sub

OLD PEOPLE

Have charm Of their own when they
are not weak and feeble, but hale and
hearty, enjoying the sports and pleasures
of youth though they cannot participate

old age is this: Keep the stomach and
organs of digestion and nutrition in per-
feet order. The young man who does
not think of his stomach will be made to
think of it as he grows old. 1t is the
weak" stomach, incapable of supplying
the adequate nutrition for the body,
which causes the weakness and feeble
ness of old age.
