Anywhere and objects
to Lids.

An insane man who doesn't know his
own name or where he lives was taken to
the county jail from Willard by Deputy
sheriffs Allan and Stryker at 1880 Monday
morning He was found by the marshal
in Willard wandering about the streets
and threatening all kinds of trouble be-
cause the lid was on Sunday and he could
get nothing to drink He became so violent
he had TO be handcuffed and the sheriff s
office was called on to get him. He is about
% years old and from papers found in his
pockets It is believed his name is Harvey
Schaffstall and his home Kansas City.
How he got 10 Millard is a mystery.
He declares he doesn't know his name
and he doesn't live anywhere. He said
something about coming from Pennsyl-
vania, but the officers believe he is from
Missouri. When he woke up Monday morn
ing he landed a drink. When he was
told drinks were not sold at the Hotel Nc

taken before the insanity commission.

.STOESSEL QUITS
RUSSIAN ARMY

st. Petersburg, Sept. 28.-The Asso-
ciated Press was Informed yesterday
that Lieutenant General Stoessel, VINO
commanded the Russian forces at
Port Arthur, yesterday submitted his
resignation from the army. 1t IS
understood that it will be accepted,
thereby ending the history of the sur
render of the fortress without the
undesirable disclosures which
would result from a formal court mar
tial. The generals resignation IS
said to have been due to the initiative
of the emperor. After reading the
report of the commission appointed to
investigate the surrender of Port
Arthur, recommending that Stoessel
be dismissed from the army and
shot, his majesty expressed aversion
to any further discussion of the sub
ject in open court.

Sacramento, Cal, Sept 28.-Adolph
Weber, who murdered his parents, set
ting fire to the house afterwards, was
hanged here yesterday. Weber went
to the scaffold with firm step and
to the very last maintained the nerve
that has characterized him as one OF
the most remarkable criminals of the
century. He was pronounced dead
IA minutes after his body shot through
the trap.
The crime for which Weber paid
the penalty was most revolving. On
the night of November 10, 1904, the
town of Auburn, Placer county, was
aroused by an alarp of fire, caused by
the burning of the residence of Julius
Weber, wealthy retired merchant
When the firemen and others neared
the house they found that all the
gates had been barred. Inside or
the burning building was found the
dead bodies of Mrs. julius Weber, her
daughter, Bertha, and little son Earl
Two days later the body of julius
Weber was found Mrs. Weber and
Bertha had been shot, while Earrs
death was caused by a beating with
a blunt instrument
