Somewhat BugilOuse.
(Imboden Gazette.)

Tuesday night a man, after
wards giving his name as VIM.
Brandt, got off of Frisco train
No. 2 at this place, and about 10
O'Clock ran into the home Of DR..
Ed Sullivan. Miss Carrie Sulli-
van and her brother had retired,
and the mans sudden appear
ance at her bedside gave Miss
Sullivan a fearful fright. The
man, however, proved harmless,
but was suffering under a fright
full delusion, believing that he
was being followed by persons
intent upon killing him. Miss
Sullivan got him to leave the room
whereupon she locked the door.
Marshal Golf locked the man ur
in the calaboose next morning al
the mans own request and the
same day put him on the train
and shipped him out of town.
The man, according to the yellow
tinges on his fingers, is evidently
an inveterate cigarette smoker,
which in all probability is the
cause Of his queer actions. He
is foreigner, and says he came
to this country about six years
ago from Germany,

AMENDMENTS ARE INVALID
DECISION BY THE ARKANSAS
SUPREME COURT.
OHlcial Vacancies, Poll Tax ana
Road Tax Laws Inva1ldnted.

Little Rock, Ark.--Monday the
state supreme court handed down de-
cision, Monday, that invalidates three
constitutional amendments. The case In
point involved the right Of the governor
to fill official vacancies by appointment,
and 1t was held by the supreme court
that the amendment was not adopted.
for the reason that 1t did not receive
a majority OF all the votes on that par
ticular question.
The poll tax amendment requiring all
voters to have poll tax receipts, and the
read tax amendment. providing for a
levy of a special three-mill tax for road
improvements are affected In a like
manner.
The official vacancies must now be
filed by election under old law. The
road tax can not be levied and poll tax
requisite is invalid.
