Assyrian From Newhouse Mixes His
Food and Drink

The occupants of the Montana rooming
! house. at i3 East Second South street.
We're greatly alarmed yesterday at the ac-
| tons of Sam Hum. Assyrian, who
came to Salt Lake from NewhOuse We'd
neSGay morning. Hum seized with
| spasm. which closely resembled rigor
morris. early in the morning and was
! taken TO his room and put to bed. About
{ in the afternoon he became violent and
attempted to jump from a second-story
window. Failing in this. he attempted to
throw all the furniture in the room
through the window. Policeman Carl
Carlson was called and took the man to
the county jail, where he was examined
by DIR. c. NJ. Benedict. DR.. Benedict
found that HUM had made a most injudi-
cious mixture of strawberries and beer.
and the doctor thinks that this may have
caused his strange actions. He will un-
dergo further examination today as to
his sanity.

MISTAKEN FOR ANOTHER
-
Y Is TAKEN INTO HOUSE AND
CARED FOR.

William A. Westness. a painter work
ing on the Newhouse building was as
saulted by two men and severely beaten
at the corner of First South and West
iemple streets about 1880 o'clock last
night While lying In the gutter opposite
the barns of the Salt Lake Livery &
transfer company on West Temple street
IN an unconscious condition he was mis-
taken by Mrs. Dan Folsom for her broth
ct. Leo Leslie, and Mrs Folsom had the
man carried to her home In the rear of
10 North West Temple He Law on the
floor in an unconscious condition for more
than an hour and a half until Dr. +. s.
wright arrived. DR.. Wright dressed the
TWO wounds In the mans head one a Sc
we're cut. evidently caused by a heavy
punt instrument. and the other bad cut
over the left eve.
Westness revived sufficiently to tell who
ne was and portion of the story of how
ne was assaulted. After his wounds were
dressed ne was taken to the police sta
ton by Policeman Tinges.
Mistaken for Brother.
About 1O:30 o'clock some boys notified
Policeman Eddy that drunken man was
wandering up West Temple street above
FIRST South and that street car had
Deen forced TO stop to avoid running over
him. Policeman Eddy followed the man
up West Temple street and found him ly-
ing IN the gutter in front of the Salt
Lake Livery * transfer company. While
~he was waiting for the arrival of the pa
trol wagon Mrs. Dan Folsom, pushing
through the crowd. caught a glimpse of
the wounded man and Immediately an
nounced that he was her brother Leo
Leslie, and asked that he be carried TO
her home at SO North West Temple street.
This was done and the officers left think
ing that the man would be cared for prop
erly. Mrs. Folsom sent for a doctor and
did all in her power for the wounded
man for some time. but did not recognize
her mistake until her brother. who had
been told of the accident. entered the
room. She had summoned her father,
George Leslie of $50 North Ninth West
before she discovered the difference in
Identity
Struck With Club.
Westness had evidently been drinking
heavily, and his statements were any
thing but clear as to how the affair hap
pened. AS far as could be learned he
met two men in "A saloon at First South
and West Temple streets and had won
some money. He left the saloon and the
men followed him outside and demanded
some of the money. He says that one
of them struck him with club, and he
remembers no more.
Westness is evidently an Englishman
and says he is employed at the Newhouse
buildings. He says he Is married and
lives at 517 North Main street. There
are three saloons at the corner of First
South and West Temple streets. and he
is unable TO tell in which one the trouble
began. From the first hasty examination
IL cannot be determined whether or not
the skull IS fractured. although DR..
Wright does not believe IL is. When he
was found Westness had no money in
his possession.
