CRAZY MAN
IS NABBEO

The police believe they have at
last rounded up the "crazy man"
who has been troubling the resi-
dents of the south and east end
for the last few weeks, in the per-
son of Isaac Lowery, a New Zea-
lander, whom they captured last
night in South Tacoma. Lowery
had accosted a passerby, saying,
Get off my ship. This is the
ship of God. I'll run a red-hot
iron through you." When he was
approached by the officers he
threw up his hands and said,
"I'm between God and the DEVILS"
and then ran down the street lead
ing them a merry chase.
Upon being asked his occupa-
tion by the jailer this morning as
he was being put into the city jail
he said he was a messenger of
God sent to this world to care for
the unfortunate. The police patrol
has been called out again and
again in answer to calls to get a
crazy man, but each time he had
eluded them by jumping into the
brush.
The description given the po-
lice at different times tally ex-
actly with the dress and appear
ance of this man. He is about 35
years old, dressed in old brown
overals and wore a slouch hat.

Pettit's desk during his absence
from the city, as told in the Times
yesterday.
Petit has big work to do, and
appears to be conscientious and
courageous in doing it. Naturally
he has to trample on the toes OF
those who are breaking the city

Naturally too they are laying

The men who are trying to dis

taking long chances with the law
when they resort to robbery and
forgery.
If they are caught, and they
surely will be caught If they keep
it up, it'll go hard with them.
The Times shows above the real
signature of Chief Frazer and of
Cook Shief and alongside it the
forgeries. These were the names
forged to the duplicate claims
against the city which some one
