Insane Man.

A man going by the name of John
Dolan was brought here Thursday
night from Cleaver Station, where
he had sat by the river all day, and
refused to talk to any person.
When brought here Dolan appeared
to be famished for want of food and
water. He had walked from Haw-
thorne to Cleaver, and when he
reached the river imagined he had
struck bathing resort where about
a hundred women were sporting in
the water. Dolan is a decent appear
ing fellow and will probably be all
right when he gets rested up. He
was taken to Dayton yesterday by
Constable Slingerland, where he
will be given an examination as to
his sanity.

farrell Not Indicted.

The grand jury which has been in
session in Carson this week failed to
indict Johnny Farrell, who was ar
rested in Yerington some weeks ago
on a charge of selling whisky to
Indians. Farrell had been on a
spree and was in such a condition
that he did not know what he was
doing. He did not deny that he
gave the whisky to an Indian, but
says he does not remember so doing.
His friends will be pleased to learn
of the action of the grand jury, and
hope that Johnny will let this ex-
perience be a lesson to him.

The State And Federal Officers Do
Not Agree.
MUST HAVE WRITTEN ORDERS
Mrs Chadwick's Attorney Becomes
Very Angry Because a Marshal
Would Not Allow Him to See His
Client.

Cleveland, O., Jan. Z. - AS the re-
suit Of clash between the federal
and county authorities that has been
on since Mrs. Cassie l.. Chadwick ar.
rived in this city from New York as
to who had jurisdiction over the pris-
oner's care while she was in the
county Jail, the federal authorities
definitely stated that they would as
sumo control under authority vested
in them by decision of the supreme
court of the United States in SINH
lar case in another state had which
they think can be applied in this in
stance.
The dispute has arisen because OF
the privilege assumed by Former
Sheriff Barry in permitting her hus-
band and other persons to call on
Mrs. Chadwick contrary to an order
of the federal Judge that written per.
mission for such interview or call
should first be obtained from that
court.
Sheriff Barry retired from office
last Saturday midnight. He was sue
ceeded by George G. Mulhern.
AS a county official Sheriff Null
hern obtained from the county solici'
tor an opinion to the effect that mas
much as the Jail was county insti'
tuition, United States prisoner there
was no more than county prisoner
while confined therein and was under
the authority of the sheriff.
An opinion was handed to the sher
if by District Attorney John J. Sulli
ven later in the day to the effect that
the federal authorities controlled
Mrs. Chadwicks care and that nc
person should be allowed to see hel
without their permission. 1t was
maintained by District Attorney
Sullivan that Mrs. Chadwick is fed
eral prisoner and the sheriff is for the
time being federal keeper.
To enforce its orders two deputy
marshals have alternated in the
county Jail today and tonight il
guarding the way to Mrs. Chadwick's
cell. Not even her attorney, c.. p
Dawley, was allowed to see her to
day, because he had not obtained per
mission from the federal officials
Dawley, who is very prominent law
yer, asserted the prerogative of his
calling to see his client, but power
full deputy marshal refused him en-
trance to the woman's corridor of the
jail. Dawley was furious and said &c
the marshal that If he had half as
much physical strength as he had de
termination he would throw the mar
shall out of the window.

Small Nancy, aged four, had doll
to which she was devotediy attached.
1t could open and shut its eyes, and
every night Nancy took it to bed with
her, carefully closing its eyes before
the light was turned out. One day the
doll, as dolls from time imme-

with an accident which placed the

badly damaged ones as well. AT in

At bedtime when she had donned her

bed her mother saw, she had forgotten
her adored doll and reminded her OF
1t, saying:
"But, Mamie, you've forgotten your
baby; she won't be able to sleep un
less you take her to bed with you as
usual"

KEEP FAITH WITH CHILDREN.
Matter in Which Mothers Sometimes
Show Carelessness.

Show Carelessness.
Many a woman who would not
think of lightly breaking promise
made to grown-up person Is utterly
careless about keeping her word with
her children. She promises whatever
is convenient at the moment, and
apparently thinks that the breaking
or keeping of those promises is a mat
ter in which she can please herself
and that her children have no right
to consider themselves aggrieved II
she does not do so.
A mother who acts thus does her
child grievous harm. She forgets that
the sense of justice is strong in quite
little child, and that 1t is natural
and reasonable that he should expect
his parents to be as good as their
word and to fulfill their promises
even at the cost of convenience
Promises should not be lightly brok
en-, and the parent who Is guilty OF
this soon loses his children's conf
dence, which is one of the sweetest
things which our little ones can give
us.
When boys and girls learn to doubt
their parents truthfulness, says
Woman's Life, they soon look around
for someone whom they can trust
and on that person they shower theil
affection and heStoW their conf
dence.
Most men have as much faith in
airships as they have in air castles
The meek may inherit the earth
but the other fellows will doubtless
try to break the will.
