the naked form of Peterson, who
yelling loudly. rushed at him and
out into the night.
Mr.. Concannon could hardly be.
lieve his senses, but he recovered
sufficiently to telephone to the po-
lice station. The message of Mr..
Concannon that an insane burglar,
stripped of all clothing, had broken
into his store on Thurman near
Twenty-fonrth came close upon
other messages from persons all the
way FROM johnson street to Thur
man. Sometimes it was simply a
crazy man who fled past the pedes-
trian. again it was a-daring burglar,
who tried to enter buildings. partic.
ularly residences.
The patrol wagon, with Driver
Isaacs and Sergeant Hogaboom,
went out to bring in the insane
man when he should be captured !.
Ali the patrolmen of the North
Portland beats were on the lookout,
bot Peterson, in deadly fear of the
spirits who he said were trying to
kill him at the hospital, was on the
run constantly.
A few minutes after he made the
hair of Mr., Concannon rise upon
his scalp, Peterson appeared before
the fremen of the Pintsch gas
works in the terminal yards. Out
of the night there had come an sp-
partition which made the men think
they bad encountered devil fresh
from Hades.
"Gimme shirt and pair of
socks" demanded Peterson.
Seeing that he was insane, the
fireman made no delay in stripping
off his own shirt end handing it
over to Peterson. He was too scar
ed to raise protest.
The patrol wagon following upon
the wandering trail of Peterson
came upon him 10 the gas works.
He was speedily placed in the wag-
on and taken to the station, where
the hospital attendant, already a.
ware that Peterson had escaped,
was notified to come and get him if
there was cell where he could be
safely confined. With his wound
still bleeding, and dressed in a shirt
and socks borrowed perforce, and
an old pair of trousers picked up
the way, Peterson went back to
the evil spirits in the hospital. He
was suffering from a fever and had
become temporarily insane.

The Spivey brothers who are in
Jail here, confessed today that they
had been in shooting scrapes before,
having served terms in the peniten-

kill. They ascribe the whole troub-

Joseph Spivey when asked today
for his nearest of kin, replied that
Deputy Sheriff Brannon was his
best friend. Brannon is the officer
who broke through the crowd and
cut the rope the last time Spivey
was strung up last night. Deputy

wound, his ghastly appearance and
his naked condition were enough to

Boise, Ida, Oct. 2.-Accordipg
to returns received in New York by
General J. L. Weaver, the .dredge
he has constructed near Grand
View, on the Snake River, saves
$23.5S from each yard. He made
trial run and took the malgams
from 81 yards to New York, where
he had it retorted and analysed.
He writes that he got a return
showing the saving to have been
$7.35 in gold a yard. $1.30 in silver
and $14.93 in platinum, a total of
$23.5S. The dredge is what is
known. as the Bennett Pattern, de-
signed on the theory that the grav-
els are filled with gold in the form
of impalpable powder. In passing
through the machine the gold has
about so opportunities to come in
to contact with plates covered with
quicksilver. Panning tests show
about 30 cents yard in these
gravels.
The figures of this cleanup from
the amalgamator have caused some
excitement among those interested,
but most mining men are confident
that some mistake has been made.

confessed to the horrible crime.
The girl was caught while passing

After releasing her, the boys
were afraid that she would inform
on them and decided to murder
her. They ran and overlook her
and cut her throat from ear to ear.
The body was found byiher father
within an hour after the murder
covered with grass and weeds. The
people are so aroused that the boys
