Sioux City, July 2O.-1ndian medicine
men are responsible for large per-
centage of the insanity among the REQ
men of the United States, according
to officials of the Canton asylum for
Indians, who are in Sioux City, taking
to the home a Navahoe woman and a
Pueblo boy, who are as crazy as peo-
pie can be and live
The woman attempted to burn her
teepee in Utah, and wanted to see her
depot burned because she had to wait
there for trains to take her to the
ASYLUM. She also attempted this job
or arson, but was headed off in time.
Because she had property which the
medicine men wanted, she was given
a strong tea made from the ''jimson
weed and an ointment, manufactured
by the medicine man. These two pre-
scriptions disarranged her mind, and
when she arrived in Sioux City in
charge of trained nurse from the res
ervation she was pounding her teeth

Holding her hand to the top of her
head, where there seemed to be the
most excruciating pain, she was a
pitiful sight when locked in cell at
the police station this morning, to wait
for the evening Milwaukee and ST.
Paul train.
The woman took things unconcern-
eddy, because she had the cracker jack
box to play with, but the Pueblo boy
objected to being locked in dark cell,
and it was only by kindness that he
was induced to enter the steel box, and
the door closed behind him.
In the asylum at Canton, S. D.,
there are now fifty-four crazy Indians.
They are there for all sorts of reasons
Melancholy is common cause OF In
sanity among the Indians according
to the authorities. while there are
many who have inherited insanity
Others are epileptics. either by Inherit
ance or requirement.
A few fall in love, their affairs go
wrong, and they go crazy. Probably
8 per cent of the Indians now in the
asylum at Canton are there because
of unfortunate love affairs.
That many Indians become demented
because of brooding over the treatment
they have received in the past. is not
doubted by the authorities who ham
