Miss BoylenJ Jumps From
Car to Escape Specter
Nemesis.

phantom bearing poison cup has
pursued Miss Maggie Boylen from her
home in Corona, Sonoma County, to
this city, and at l o'clock yesterday
morning the terror became so acute
that the young woman threw herself
from swiftly moving Kentucky-street
car to the pavement. She was found
in the street wounded on the head and
face and was carried into the Potrero
Hospital by the car crew. Now she
lies in the detention ward at the Cen
trail Emergency Hospital. crying that
her enemies are still near her, still
persisting to force a potion of strych-
nine down her throat. And at inter
walls she tells of thrilling experiences
with police officers and poisoners, who
ride in automobiles. When her mind
is SO lucid that she realizes she is in
a hospital she fears that she is about
to be operated upon for appendicitis.
On. Monday the Lunacy Commissioners
will study the woman's case.
MIND LONG DISEASED.
1t is evident that there has long been
in the mind OF Miss Boylen the cruel
fantasy that she was destined to be
poisoned. When she was taken to the
Potrero Hospital there was found on
her person long, unaddressed letter,
IN which she expressed her intention of
bringing suit against DR.. Gossage and
a druggist named Webb, both of Peta-
luna, for $4,000 damages for having
poisoned her.
Miss Boylen's San Francisco expert
ence was short. according to certain
comparatively clear statements she
makes at times. She left Corona,
where she has been living with her
aged mother and brother at 4
O'Clock on Friday afternoon and came
a car to see the ruins and then came
into her ken the dread phantoms
which stay with her still. Her MEM
ory of subsequent experiences is pite-
ously queer.
SPECTER IN UNIFORM.
In the shape of a police officer the
first prosecutor appeared, and by him
she was dragged from the car and
beaten savagely. By a desperate effort
the poor woman says she escaped from
the officers clutches, only to fall into
the hands of poisoners. who forced her
into an automobile and made her drink
of a deadly cup.
At midnight she boarded car No. e74
from which she threw herself, at
Thirty-t third avenue and Kentucky
street. sitting in the open section in
the rear. Conductor G.. u. James col
Iected her fare and went forward
When the car reached. Sixteenth avenue
he returned to the rear and saw that
the woman, his sole passenger was not
on board. although the car had not
stopped since she got on. Fearing that
she had fallen off. the conductor and
motorman, w. S. Osborn. put back and
found her lying in the street at Thir-
tieth avenue, suffering from lacerated
wound of the forehead and severe
bruises and contusions of the head and
face. The men placed the woman on
the car and took her to the Potrero
Hospital, where DR.. Stone treated her
bruises and. noting the disordered
state of the patients mind. had her
removed to the detention hospital.
In addition to the letter found on ths
wornan's person there was check OF
deposit on a Petaluma bank for $50
dated August Is.

ISSUE or CHECKS
IS POSTPONED.
Rehabilitation Commit
tee NeedsAll Available
Coin for Rebuilding
MONEY Is SCARCE

The rehabilitation committee has
stopped issuing checks except in ur
gency cases. During the next few
weeks upward of $1,0O0,00O will be re-
quired to carry out the building plans
definitely decided upon at Fridays
meeting of the executive committee.
This necessitates slowing down in the
work of rehabilitation. The rehabil-
tation committe has only about $4,000
in its fund, which must be made to last
until the executive committee can, see
It's way clear to vote it additional
money
In the meantime the 5000 and more
applications before the committee for
rehabilitation will be investigated and
when the necessary funds are avail
able will be acted upon.
Curiously enough, the rehabilitation
committee has issued checks to the
amount of more than 100000 that have
not yet been presented at the bank.
AT the close Of banking hours on Au-
gust % these uncashed checks amount
ed to $106,020.55. This is accounted
for partly by the custom of sending
the checks to the heads of the six relief
departments into which the city Is di-
vided for distribution. If delay of
three days occurs in the distribution
of these checks almost $4,000 will be
accounted for. But why the other $780,
900 is left in the banks is a question
that remains unanswered.

Court of the United States, but he
was in doubt whether the subordinate
Federal courts could interfere while
the case was pending in the highest
Federal court. With reference to Col
Inns contention that he had been ex-
tradited from British Columbia for one
crime and had been convicted of an
other crime, which if committed at
all, was committed before the extradi-
tion," Judge Morrow remarked that
Collins could not be tried on eXtradi
tion for any offense other than the one
on which he had been extradited.

But, my friends, the service that men
do is the glory of their lives, and no
man is dear to the people of this coun-
try or whose memory is cherished, has
Its place in history, except as he has
served the people of this country.
Washington, Lincoln, Grant and the
whole list of patriots live in our
minds for what they did, not for them,
selves, but what they did for the peUS
pie of the times. And now these old
soldier friends of mine here have no
record in their lives of which they are
so proud as that they made in the
service Of their country-not for them.
selves but for the union and for the
flag. No men are exalted within
themselves, but by their fellowmen in
the measure that they give themselves
in unselfish service to the people.
Iowa's Proud Position.
81 want no political capital; no po-
litical preferment that shall be at the
sacrifice Of my state and country It
Is Of no consequence what shall be-
come of us, but it is of the greatest
consequence what shall become Of our
state and country. And Iowa-the
proudest state in the union, in my
opinion-the most helpful state In the
union, has done more to sustain the
President Of the United States in the
emergency that has existed in Wash.
ington than any other state in the un-
ion. It has contributed, in q
large measure, to all the sue
cess by its eleven faithful men
In the house Of representatives, and
altogether they stand as the represen-
tatives Of Iowa. And they get their in
structions from the people Of the state
and not from the governor.
Iowa is contributing directly to the ef-
fectiveness of this administration The
republican party, it seems to me, with
in its strength, is all the hope of our
great country. How grandly 1t has
approached all the great questions Of
the times responsive to the will Of the
people Of this country!
II am for harmony and strength and
| not for Cummins, either for governor
or president. In my judgment there
is no shadow of excuse for the present
condition of affairs in Iowa. I claim
not to be the fault of it. Now, my
friends, it is the duty to serve the par.
| ty you represent both individually and
collectively. think if we have the pa
thence to act reasonably that the re-
publican party will pull us out OF all
our difficulties. My friends, thank
you for your kindness"
