FATHER SHERMAN INSANE
Son Of Gen. w. z. Sherman Taken TO
state Hospital at Asnsw, cal.-cen-
dition Due 70 Failing Hsalth-cor-

tempt at Suicide.

San Jose. Cal. Sept. 21.--Rev. Fathe,
Thomas f. Sherman, son or Genera
William Tecurnseh Sherman. who lct
the march from Atlanta to the sea
during the civil war. today is an In.
mate of the state hospital for the in
sane at Agnew. following an attempt
at suicide yesterday at the Jesuit novi-
tiate.
Father Sherman. who was a brilliant
orator, came here from Chicago a few
months ago In an endeavor to regain
his health, having suffered nervous
breakdown.
Yesterday he procured revolver and
threatened to kill himself. He was
brought to this city. He described his
condition nationally to the examining
physicians and agreed that he would
be more likely to regain his health un-
der special treatment at the asylum
and was committed to the state insti-
tuition.
Father Sherman was former Chi
cagoan and was known from coas,
to coast as a lecturer and broad mind
ed man OF affairs. He toured the
country, speaking on economic and re-
!igious subjects. and was endeavorinn
at all times In his speeches to promote
O. better understanding between Ca
tholics and Protestants, both In public
and private life.
He served during the Spanish
American war as chaplain, and at its
close remained in the army for some
time. He stirred the south several
years ago to storm OF protest when
he planned to lead an army OF United
States troops thru the southern states
following the route his father took or
his famous march to the sea.
Agitation arose in the press and pull
pit against such move. and he finally
abandoned the plan.
Father Sherman was educated ir
the University Of St Louis and George
town University His father intended
him to be lawyer and developed hi,
education along such lines.
In the midst OF business and socia
success young Sherman decided to en-
ter the church.
without any announcement OF his
plans, either to his friends or family
he took tho initial vows In the Societ,
OF Jesus.
Strong influences were brought tc
bear upon him to dissuade him from
his chosen course. but It was all In
vain. He remained true to his resolve
and fixed in his determination TO de-
vote the remainder OF his life to the
church
