PHYSICIAN BECOMES INSANE
FROM EXCESSIVE DRINKING

Aberdeen, S. d., Nov. 28.-The Brown
county insanity board sat on a most
unusual case here Tuesda!, that of a
physician who, through excessive
drinking had become unbalanced. The
physician is Dr.. l.. c.. Mitchell, who
came TO Aberdeen from Tracy, Mimi,
carly this spring. He was working
up a good practice but over indulgence
in intoxicants caused him to neglect
his business. He was confined in two
hospitals of the city for a time for
treatment, but escaped from them
both. The complaint against the doc
tor was sworn out b. K. z. Parks, a
former resident of Trac.', who takes
the step for the physician S benefit. DR..
Mitchell requested the, board to allow
him to take treatment at some medical
spring, and this may be done, instead
OF sending him to the state hospital
at Yankton.
