]. c. Zimmerman was arrested yester-
day afternoon about 2:30 on a charge of
insanity after beating up several occu-
pants of the Whine building and making
things warm about there generally.
The insane mans first outbreak was
made in DR. Horrors Office, where he
was waiting for the doctor.
Monday evening DR.. Hornor was re-
turning from visit TO a patient south
OF the city and passing lone man walk
ing in the snow asked him to ride The
stranger rode with him to the outskirts
OF town and during the drive gave the
doctor a fair history of his troubles but
did not mention his name. He said he
had been sick and that his nerves were
wrecked. Several times during the drive
the doctor caught remarks and saw ex-
pressions on the strangers face that led
him TO believe the strangers mind was
unbalanced. However, after leaving him
south of the city the doctor had forgot
ten the man and his strange actions until
he beheld him a raying maniac at his

USED AS A FRUIT STAND

About noon yesterday the whole fire
department was called out by fire in
the smallest store in the city and pos
sibly the smallest store in the state.
There is hardly enough lumber in it
to make a good, warm fire in a kitchen
stove, but nevertheless the fremen were
there with the hose and saved the build
ing. There was no danger from falling
walls and floors and no heroic rescues
were made. The firemen did not even
enter the burning building. principally
because it was too small.
The fire was in fruit store conducted
by Mr.. Alexander between Behring's drug
store and the jewelry store just east
on Douglas avenue. In some way a coal
oil stove was upset and the shack was
going up in smoke when the department
arrived. The store occupies the whole
space of nineteen inches by actual meas
urement, between the two tall brick
buildings. A door one-half width takes
up the whole front and through this the
fruit vender secured both light and Gus
toners. \ board nineteen inches wide
and sixteen feet long, with the proper
twist. would cover both the top and north
end of the store If two customers went
in at once it would seem that one would
have either to hack out or lie down in
order to let the other out.

WILL HAVE NO HOLIDAY.
Rural Carriers Must Make Delivery
Next Monday.

Yesterday a communication from the
department at Washington concerning
mail delivery on Monday, February %.
was received here that will interest moro
than 900 rural mail deliverers in Kan
sas. The communication is to the effect
that there Will be no suspension of SER
vice on February %, which day will be
observed as a holiday CWashingtons
birthday and deductions from pay Of
rural carriers must therefore be made
in all cases where service is not per-
formed. The order was signed by Cen
eral Superintendent A. w Machen.
AS the rural free delivery carriers make
but one delivery q day the order hits
them where they live They will be sorry
that Washington ever had birthday.
And they will remember this. also. on
New Years day, Decoration day, indie
pendence day, Labor day. Christmas and
such other days as the president of the
United States or the governors of the re-
spective states may set apart, as fast or
Thanksgiving day. and other holidays
of like import. Where legal holiday
comes on Sunday the observance OF IL
falls on the Monday following unless
otherwise ordered by proper authority.
Mail clerks are the ones who never
get a holiday. for the law is very plain
TO the effect that all mail has TO be re-
ceived ard sent from the Office as usual.
The city carriers manage to get a half
holiday but they have to make at least
one visit to their patrons.

the tracks. Old railroad men say that
this is one of the worst storms they have
had for years, not on account of the
amount of snow. but the way IL drifted.
A great deal of sand and dirt was driven
with the snow into the cuts and this
made hard work for the plows to clear
the snow off the tracks.
Sand in a snow drift is about the worst
thing railroad man has 10 contend with
during a blockade. The big rotaries do
not work successfully in a snow drift
and especially when the snow is packed
like it was during this storm. Light
rain fell and then sleet and then fine
snow and the wind filed the cuts full
of this fine snow, which was packed solid
and then frozen. The sand packed the
snow harder than usual and the rota-
ries had 10 do a great deal Of maneu
vreing before they worked through a
drift Of any length.

waited a few minutes. Then suddenly
the occupants of the building were
startled by the most blood curdling yells
which seemed to come from all over the
building. The young ladies in the build
ing locked the doors and covered up
their heads, while the men peered out
over the halls through narrowly opened
doors. The wild yells continued for sew
eral minutes and the originator was
finally located by Dr. Hutton, whose Of
flee is just. across the hall from that of
DIR. Horror. He carefully opened the
door to DR.. Hornor's room and discov-
cred Zimmerman sitting fiat on the floor
with his arms extended hallooing at the
top of his voice.
With an oath the crazed man jumped
to his feet and said: Yes, you are the
man 1 want With that he pounced
upon DR.. Hutton and rained such a
shower of blows over his head and shoul-
ders that he was forced to retreat. He
realized that the man was insane and
ran into an adjoining room occupied by
George Ultch. followed by the crazy
man. DR.. Hutton was forced into cor
ner and was trying to defend himself
from the severe blows when Mr. Ultch
jerked the crazy wretch away. Then the
tide of battle turned. Zimmerman turned
all his attention to Mr.. Ultch. The battle
waged back and forth across the room
and finally Zimmerman followed the two
men into the hall. Help had arrived by
this time and the crazy man was thrown
upon his back and held until a policeman
arrived.
DR.. Hornor arrived about the same
time and gave the fellow. hypodermic
injection that cooled his ardor for a
lime.
Zimmerman was taken to the police
station in the patrol wagon and did not
make the least resistance. and later was
removed to the county Jail. He would
not give his name while at the Winnie
building, but declared that he was Jesus

After visit to the city building Mr..
Walters stated that there was not a pub
lie or private building in the country
that had the symmetrical lines as beau
tiful as Wichita's city building. He had
found very few buildings in the country
that would even come up to this. He
asked many questions regarding the
building and procured some of the draw
ings and several photographs of the two
fronts, and stated that these will be
placed in the gallery of the department
at Manhattan as the most beautiful
building in the country. He especially
admired the west front of the building
as being the most elaborate and yet
most beautiful entrance to any building
in the country.
