A RUSSIAN ANARCHIST
LOSES HIS LIBERTY
He Threatens Quaker Doctors and is
Promptly Landed Behind the Bars
Probably Demented.

\ very dangerous man of the Russian
type visited this city Il few day, pre-
vious to the advent of Ringing Bros.
circus and has been here ever since.
though the last few days he has been
confined behind Jail doors. The Rus
sian was seen walking around the
streets in a detected manner and invar-
iably holding his head down. 1t was not
until the Quaker doctors began their
nightly entertainments, however. that
this solitary type of human being came
into prominence. He attempted to scare
the "healers" by threatening to blow up
their works unless a sum of 800 was
paid him. He sent them three postal
cards of an anarchistic nature when
were turned over to the authorities and
ended in the capture of the man at the
public library. 1t was here that "Sana
Motto for thus he signed his name, de-
manded of the doctors to appear and de-
liver to him the 800 bill Sheriff Grant
and Policeman George Hunter went to
the library at the time set and found
their apparently demented brother in
patince waiting
There seems to he no question about
the mans mental condition. He is UNI
doubtedly insane and will he examined
by 4 board of doctors If he proyaS tO
be all right mentally he will be pun
ished according to the law governing
such cases. On the contrary he will be
taken to Medical Lake.

company in three act farce comedy.

that has been produced. Notwithstand-
ing the counter attractions the little
theatre was filled to its capacity and
the audience was kept in a continued
roar of laughter from start to finish
Specilaties galore were introduced be-
tween acts.

gained since then has been such as to
qualify him. in the estimation of all
