Fifteen people are crowded into some
OF these shacks, where children manage
to drag through their sad little lives,
despite their uncared for condition and
the sitting and fetid air they are COM
PEELED to breathe.

tv be misfit, since no area for breath

A man, supposed TO be insane, and
who gave his name as Borneo, from
Borneo, at the police station, but
whose name is G. S Underwood, OF
Marietta, Ga, was taken from bis
room at the Southern Hotel early last
night by Police Officer Bogart- This
was done upon request of the mana

easy on account of the strange man
ner in which the man had been act
ing.
There was some excitement about
the hotel when it was stated that an
insane man was in the building, but
this was allayed when the patrol
wagon arrived and removed the man
to the city Jail. After an examination
by the city physician, Underwood, who
later said he was working in the pay
masters office at the navy yard, was
turned over to the county authorities.
