puzzling dual personality has developed
here in the case of a man who says he is

alias of George Sage, who, they say. con-
fessed to horse stealing after being Sc
riously wounded in a running fight with
officers near " tie Pigeon, this state,
January 1. When sentence has been
passed, the authorities declare, d horse
thief and a benefactor will have paid the
penalty of this dual personality.
Gabriel Strang, it appears, lived in Lii
gonier, Ind, since his boyhood and was
known to be honest Ga,riel Strang was
honest; his friends say it was George
Sage who stole horses. But both men
lived in the same body.
Since Strang has been imprisoned here
1t has become known that he is the

that he is the same man who, moved by

later through college.
These and many other stories of

him into trouble. Now Gabriel Strang,
capable business man, is waiting sentence
