AN EPIDEMIC OF
MENTAL AFFLICTION

Insanity, sometimes superinduced
by climatic conditions or atmo-
spheric changes, is conceded by diff
ferent men Of the medical profess
sion to run in epidemics, and an cpl
demic of mental affIiction appears
to be brewing over the city at the
present time. A close inspection Of
the police records from one month
to the other, throughout the year,
will show conclusiveIy that insanity
cases are seldom found singly in
Spokane, but that, on the contrary,
like epidemics Of crime and disor-
der, when one case is found several
are generally to be expected. Such
expectations on the part of the off,
GERS are seldom met with disap.
pointment, strange as it may seem.
Today William Hough was
booked at the police station, sus-
pected Of insanity. Only yesterday
a woman was incarcerated for the
same reason. Without a change in
the peculiar weather conditions,
planetary positions or whatever
strange element is believed to be
responsible for the suspected
mental arrangement of these two
persons, it is quite probable that
several others will be included on
the jail records within the next few
days.
ut is truly strange thing" Dr.
John O'Shea, superintendent of the
emergency hospital, agreed the
other day when the matter was
mentioned by Press reporter to
him. 81 cannot but think that
weather conditions or perhaps the
position of the planets may be the
cause of it, for it seems that almost
without failure, when one of those
insanity cases are brought to the
emergency hospital, several others
will follow almost Immediately,
then comes a lull of sometimes
three or four weeks and maybe two
montns. Ihey certainly come in
epidemics."
Stewards Dare and Millburn
through their extensive experience
in the city's emergency hospital
and other institutions throughout
the country, share in this belief in
epidemical insanity and crime.
which many skeptics scout as, per-
haps, a "spooky thought"
ut is not only in insanity cases,
but in accidents. crime and fighting
that he trouble seems to come in
bunches,' Steward Dare stated the
other day. "Now, for instance, we
