bullet went through Collins hand.
Collins reached home before the off,

GEORGE PRESS HAS NARROWING EXPERIENCE
The Victim of Thugs He Wanders at Random in
Dazed Condition and When Found Is
Mentally Deranged.

that happened until three days later.
While wandering near the coun-
ty road about five miles from Nab
ton, Sunday afternoon, the fellow was
seen from the roadway by a man
and his wife who were driving into
Mabton. AS the stranger was al
most nude it was thought by the
man in the vehicle that he was
probably crazy. He gave the fell
low few matches and told him to
build fire to keep warm by, and
drove hurriedly into town and noti-
fled the proper authorities concern
ing the case. They at once set out
after the man and brought him into
Mabton, where he was held as a
maniac. Not having yet recovered
from the effects of the dope given
to him, he could not tell straight
story at the time if his discovery,
and consequently the people of Mali
ton thought him mentally deranged
Accordingly the sheriffs office was
notified at this place Sunday after
noon and Sheriff Grant was making
ready to go down after the man
Monday morning, but when commits
sioner Cline arrived in Mabton yes
terday morning, coming here to at
tend the county board meeting, he
brought the man with him and
saved the expense of sending a man
to Mabton.
The man was Kept in custody all
day yesterday and gradually grew
brighter, until yesterday noon he
was able to tell the story as pub
lished above. He is in bad condi-
ton physically and his left foot and
ankle are swollen all out of shape.
1t seems miraculous that he did not
perish while wandering for three
days and nights on the prairie
around Mabton, and without any
clothes save his underwear. He
came to this country from Idaho.

A man who gives his name as
George Press fell into gang of
tough men at Mabton last Thursday,
was given knockout drops in drink
of whskey, robbed of all the
money he possessed, stripped of his
shoes, trousers, coat and vest and
left for dead. Three days later he
was discovered about five miles from
Mabton in a semi-conscious condition
almost nude and nearly frozen to
death. 1t was thought at first that
he was crazy, but later developments
have disproven this theory. He is
now in the hospital here at the ex-
pense of the county, where he will
remain until fully recovered from
the narrowing experience.
On last Wednesday stranger
dropped into Mabton looking for
work. He had few dollars with
him and was fairly well dressed.
Not being able to get anything to
do, he fel in witha bunch of
men who appeared to be good fell
lows" but who later proved TO be
scoundrels and thieves. The name
of the stranger referred to is the
man who now lies in the hospital
here trying to recover from das-
tardly attempt upon his life.
The fact that he had few dollars
made him very popular with his
hobo friends, all of whom had hard
luck stories and were continually
touching" their new acquaintance
for a quarter, now and then, with
which to buy a meal. They finally
adopted a plan to get the balance of
his money, and also to appropriate
the clothes which he wore. He was
asked TO have drink by one of the
fellows, which he accepted. 1mme-
diately after his mind became a
blank and he did not know anything
