INSANE AND UNKNOWN.
Gave Himself Up and Was Jailed at
BAKER City.

Shortly before noon today a man
who does not know his own name.
where he came from or where he lives
appeared in the circuit court and ask
ed that he be locked up, says the
Baker City Herald
Sheriff Brown took charge OF him
and attempted 10 learn something
about him, but was unable to do so
except that he was subject to fits and
thought that he had been confined in
Madical Lake, Wash, insane asylum
at some other time.
The patient said that he believed
he came to Baker City with his
brother but did not know what had
become OF his brother and thought he
must have ran away. He says he re-
members having a fit last night and
that he has not slept for some time.
He was afraid that he was not a pro-
per person to be at large so hunted up
the court to be confined for public
safety.
AS soon as locked up the lunatic,
for such he evidently was, fell into a
deep sleep and is resting very well.
1t is hoped by the officers that he
will have regained his proper mind
when he awakens and will be able TO
tell some particulars regarding HIM
self.
The man appears to be between
the ages of 25 and 80 years. He has
the appearance OF farm hand and
is roughly dressed.

ENFORCE STATE LAW.
Lewiston Sheriff Says Indians Can't
Have Liquor.

Lewiston, Jan. S.-The sheriffs Of
flee is determined to arrest, under
the state law, any person against
whom complaint is made that such
person has sold whiskey to Indians.
The federal law. relative to the in
PRODUCTION OF liquor on the reserva-
tion and the sale of liquor to Indians,
has been declared unconstitutional by
the United States circuit court of ap-
peals and the matter has gone to the
supreme court OF the United States,
but independent OF the ultimate decis-
ion Of the courts as TO the validity Of
the federal law, there is a state stat
ute, passed In 1879, which makes II
a misdemeanor for q person TO sell
liquor to an Indian and the sheriffs
office has decided to stand on the
law.
During the past few weeks a num-
ber of drunken Indians on the reser-
walton have been causing much annoy
ance to the whites, and especially
during the past days have disorders
been reported from Spalding where
the dancing Indians have established
a camp at the Captain Kane place. a
short distance from the North Lapwai
station.
Yesterday Deputy Sheriff Monroe
visited Spalding in connection with
the matter OF suppressing the liquor
traffic and 1t is probable some arrests
will be made for selling liquor in vio-
lation of the state law.
1t had been reported that the dane
ing Indians had concluded their dance
Tuesday night. but insteadsit was re-
sumed Wednesday might, while last
evening large numbers OF Indians
were again assembling at the dancing
tent. The Indians dance during the
night and sleep daring the day.
