REMARKABLE PATIENT
OLIVER G. PERRY A MOST
UNIQUE CRIMINAL.

Fed Through a Tube.

New York.--Blinded by his own

ing, Oliver Curtiss Perry, whose train
robbing exploits in 1892 startled the
country by their boldness and novel
methods, is declared by insanity ex-
perts to be the most remarkable pa
tent in the state hospital for the
criminal insane. M
Perry declares he will never take
bite of food or wear stitch OF
clothes while he is in the Dannemora
hospital, and Drs. North, Townsend
and Mcdonald his physicians, believe
him. Since November 10, 1903, Perry
has received nourishment through
tube. not becauss il is necessary but
simply because he has determined to
die rather than to eat the regular
prison fare.
The prisoner is classed among the
insane, but he declares he has mo-
tive for his actions. His refusal to be
clad and to feed himself in the fashion
customary in Das~, ~,smora Is not a
mania, he argues. out Is merely a bit
Of stubbornness aimed at what he de.
scribes as unfairness, and he adds that
II the taking of food and the wearing
Of clothes will establish his sanity in
the opinion of experts and get him
transferred to regular prison he
will eat solid food and clotne himself.
He objects to being treated unfairly,
he says, and this is the basis for his
strange actions.
His action in binding himself. in
its inexplicable self-torture, he as
cribes to another motive. His family
had deserted him, he says, and nc
wanted them to come to see hin. He
assumed that his father would see

would hasten to his cell. Days passed

birds are being plucked by cross-cur-

For many years We have tried to
invent a poultry-pluoking machine. We
have not succeeded well. Air plucking
seems to be the idea that offers most
promise. but 1t still wants a lot OF
