In the little country town back in Mis-
souri, where 1 lived when I was a boy
there was one old man called "Loony
Lou" and he might have been crazy.
If he was, he was the only crazy man
l ever saw before my arrival in Los
Angeles. 1 Immediately applied for a
position upon my arrival here and
learned that a guard for the insane
ward at the county hospital was
needed
II applied. might have been
frightened. l don't remember whether
I was or not, but anyway 1 applied
for and got the position About
that time had an idea that there was
just about no one in the world that
had much of show with me when
1t came to personal combat. 1 had that
idea dissolved the first day when a poor
frail little woman. forty years of age
and apparently too weak to keep her
feet, was brought into the hospital and
promptly celebrated the event of my
appointment by grabbing hold of me
and nearly breaking most of the bones
of my body before 1 managed to get
away. 1t is a peculiar thing about
insane people and about the surest
proof of the power of mind over mat
ter, that when the brain of a patient
is whirling and being racked by the
storm of insanity, their strength in
creases in proportion, and If their brain
telegraphs them to whip any one they
can come very nearly doing it no mat
ter how weak they have ordinarily
been.
IT have seen the frailest kind of a
man or woman perform feats of
strength while In the passion of in
sanity that a giant would have hesl-
tated to attempt.

ment l received the worst beating of
my career and incidentally the last 1
ever got. / went out in the hills near
Garvanza to take charge of an Eng
lishman' who had gone mad. He had
been a soldier, athlete and hunter in
his day and he had been in the habit
every night of mounting a hunting
horse and chasing about the Garvanza
hills. blowing hunting horn and yell

The insane man had advertised for

had a chance he struck me squarely IN
the face, cutting my lip ana nose anu 4
iarrine loose several of my teeth. L
grabbed him and we began wrestling.
early in the game 1 had learned that
the only grip an insane man or woman
fears is a throttle hold With the air
cut off from them they fear the un-
known. Their minds give way under
the idea that everything is becoming
dark before them, and instead of try
ing to break the hold they become
panic stricken with the terrible dread
and scream for help. 1 grabbed this
man by the throat and held him as
tight as 1 could while he rained blows
on my head and face. 1t was simply q
question of which man would last the
longest. If he had knocked me un-
conscious he would have killed me-
but gradually as the wind went from
his lungs and his eXertions became
more and more demanding the fear
came upon him and he began TO
scream for help. Then l threw him
and slapped on the cuffs, and by that
time the negro had arrived and we
got the man to the wagon in safety.
After that / always had an extra with

ut is a peculiar thing about insane
persons that in almost every case II

of them have such affection that they
will not let others speak to me. Not

one day / took him aside and / ex-
planned in detail that he could not even
whip one side of me and he agreed that
he couldn't and after that we were
good friends.
"On one occasion not long ago had

when he knocked chunks Of plaster Off

to kill every one in sight, when We

Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-10

at the antics of the insane, but when 1
am with them I feel like / am a part
of their own world and their little con-
ceits and peculiarities become so real
that it is hard to believe that their
actions are not true instead of the
exaggerated imaginings of a distorted
brain.
IT have handled hundreds of them,
and every one that comes under my
observation causes me to pity them the
more. The saddest feature of it all is
the grief of the families of the insane,
for many of them would rather see a
son or brother go to the penitentiary
than to see him sent to an asylum,
leaving behind him the taint of in
sanity upon every member of that
family for generations to come"

MUSIC AND DRAMA
Give DeIiqhtfuI Concert

The C. S. DeLano Mandolin, Guitar
and Banjo clubs gave their annuai
concert at the Gamut auditorium Fri
day night, and the beautiful little aud
itorium was crowded almost to its
capacity. Several outside artists of
note assisted the club members, not
able among these being Miss Gladys
Scofield.
The program as presented by the diff
ferent clubs was an ambitious one.
Wagner's "Tannhauser" potpourri. a
quartet from "Rigoletto," and Rossini's
famous overture from wilhelm Tell''
were only a few of the we'll known
numbers that made up the program.
Miss Gladys Scofeld in several whist
ling numbers called forth loud ap-
plause with her clear warbling trllls
and deep throaty tones.
