Knew His Name

"Me name is not -o'Hone; It's
o'Hooney," indignately asserted the
prisoner at the bar before Judge An
derson in police court yesterday af-
ternoon. Chief Of Police Gammal ar
rested Mr.. O'Hooney on charge Of
begging, and he turned out to be an
ugly beggar. The prisoner has lost
one foot and has left only the part
Of the other, and under these circum-
stances he would have ordinarily been
ignored or dealt with very lightly by
the police, but his language was so
foul and his attitude so bold and VIC
ious that it was deemed the part of
wisdom to take him into custody.
Judge Anderson imposed fine Of
$40 or twenty days, and O'Hooney
took Hobson's choice of the twenty
days.

DISCOVER BAD CASE
OF SMALL PCX
THE PROPRIETOR OF "cRYS-
tai" RooMING HOUSE GOES
EIGHT DAYS WITHOUT AT
TENTIoN FROM DOCTORS.

| The rather startling discovery wa
made yesterday that David ]. Abbey
who has been sick in his room for til,
ipast seven or eight days, is suffering
from a well developed case Of small
pox. DR.. Clara Reames, the city ply
sician, was notified of the mans i'll
ness yesterday morning and at ono,
went to his bedside. Dr. Reames a
once saw that he was suffering from
smallpox, and measures were imme-
diately taken to safeguard the others
in the house from infection.
Abbey is one of the foremen at the
Clatsop mills, and also is the proprie-
tor of the "Chrystal" rooming house,
which is over saloon, Abut week
ago Abbey was taken i'll, but he neg
lected to call in a physician. There
are five roomers in the Crystal" but
as far as is known none of them has
been directly exposed to the disease.
The housekeeper, a woman, has been
exposed, however. it is understood.
. Dr. Reames at once began prepa-
rations to have Abbey removed to the
pest house, which is out near the
Wireless station, but an inspection
of the place showed it to be utterly
unfit to place patient in it. All the
windows are broken out and in many
ways it was found to be utterly unfit
for habitation Therefore it was
found necessary to keep Abbey right
where he was. DR.. Reames vaccinat-
ed all of the five roomers and thor
oughly fumigated their clothes and
the entire house. There is thought to
be comparatively little danger of a
spread OF the disease, for more by
good luck than anything else it ap-
pears as if the persons who have been
exposed are only one or two in
Where Abbey caught the disease is
a question. AS far as is known there
have been no infected persons here
1t is said, however, that there is a
strong likelihood that in this case
the infection was brought down from
Portland, where there have been a
graf many cases during the summer,
though not of a virulent nature.
Abbey's case was discovered when,
on Friday evening, he called in a
friend Of his, a drug store man. He
saw that there was something SER
Gus the matter and reported the case
% the city physician.

| Woman Insane

Mrs. Mary Smith, an elderly WON
an who has lived some l6 or II miles
out in the Lewis and Clark district
for good many years, was adjudged
insane yesterday by Judge Tren-
chard, and will be taken to the state
asylum for the insane at Salem today
DR.. Estes made the examination for
the unfortunate woman. His report
states that. the cause of her mental
arrangement was religion" While
religious dementia frequently occurs
when the mind has been weakened
from other causes, in this case there
seems to be much ground for ascrib-
ing her insanity directly to religious
broodings and meditation Mrs,
Smith is a widow, 65 years of age,
and has been affected for the past FIVE
years. Her mind now is completely
shattered, and all her hallucinations
and mental processes run along re-
ligious lines. She was brought to
town yesterday morning easily
enough because she was told she was
going to church. Not wishing to lock
her up in the county Jail over night,
Sheriff Pomeroy permitted the wom-
an to be taken to an hotel, where an
attendant stayed with her. The un-
fortunate woman caused no little
trouble, and the sheriff was appealed
to several times to lend his aid She
tried to throw herself out of win
dow. The present violent attack has
lasted for over two weeks. The sher-
iff had influence over her because he
was INTRODUCED to her as minister

CHILD IS RESTORED
TO MOTHER
HON. T. A. MCBRIDE MoDIFrEs
HIS PREVIOUS ORDER I'M
REGARD TO BABY SON or
MRS. ANNA M. GATES.

| Some days ago the Astorian had
considerable to say about certain in
equities attaching to the case In
which Ira E. Gates, druggist in the
medical department at Fort Stevens,
sought to deprive his divorced wife,
Mrs. Anna Marie Gates, Of the Gus
Itody Of the only child of the union, 4
handsome little boy, which had been
awarded to Mrs. Gates in the decree
granted her and which was not even
answered, let alone contested, by the
delinquent husband.
1t is glad now to give the pleasant
aftermath of the story, and to say
that host of friends of Mrs. Gates
rallied to her cause in the premise
and sent in plea for the restitution
of the baby boy, that was promptly
granted by Hon. Thomas A. Mcbride,
in open court at Hillsboro, on Friday
last; the venerable jurist so modified
his previous order as to require the
REIMBURSEMENT of the child by the
excellent lady to whose care it has
been committed, and granting the
mother permission to leave the juris-
diction of the court with the infant at
any time. In obedience to this
command Sheriff NJ. R. Pome-
roy at the instance of Mrs.
Gates attorney, c. Fl, Abercrombie,
and under the terms Of the later
ruling, went for the boy and deliv-
cred him, finally, to the eager and
grateful custody Of the devoted moth
er, whose happiness and gratitude
were good to see.
Mrs. Gates left the city last evening
for San Francisco, where she viii
enter the home OF her brother,
James F Hanigan, an artisan of that
city, and where she will be happier
and safer than she has been for some
years.
Onher departure, Mrs, Gates found
great difficulty in even nearly express
ing her deep sense of gratitude for
the loyal good will and kindnesses
shown her in Astoria during the
season Of her trial and trouble. That
same good will is sure to follow her
to her new and happier home in the
south, The news of the pleasant
change in the courts order has been
known here since Friday night, bua
was withheld upon request.
