.UNFORTUNATES
 FROM COCH|SE
Tombstone Officers Bring Three Patients to Asylum and Three Prisoners to the Penitentiary; Some Unusual Gases

Deputy Sheriff A w Howe of Tombstone accompanied by two other deputies. Jack Bolin of Bisbee and Frank Thomas. arrived here Satur- day night with consignment of wicked and unfortunate people for the two public institutions in and near this valley. There were two men and a woman for the insane asylum and three convicts for the penitentiary.
 The cases of two of the insane pa tients. one man and the woman are unusual but for different reasons. In the case of the man his alteration was demonstrated in a most ludicrous way while in the case of the woman it commands special sympathy by reason of her advanced age, 61 years
 The name Of the man is Charles Robin, a foreigner whose mental con ditiOn developed at Bowie station while he was working his way across the country from Texas, he says, with this valley as his destination. He hardly bears the appearance of a hobo though nobody seems to know any thing much about him or his ante cedents. At Bowie he was eating his dinner under the railroad water tank a big one containing some sixteen feet oc water at the time and all covered over except for monhole on the roof reached bv a ladder.
 Suddenly eXclaiming to his com panion that he heard his wife calling him he bounded up the ladder and dove through the manhole into the water After swimming around for a time he climbed back out of the tank and down the ladder in his saturated clothes Then he explained that his wife was dead that she went to heaven but had committed some of- fense there for which she was sent to the other place, and that at ire quent intervals she called to him to come to her assistance. No one seems to know definitely whether he ever had a family and if so what the fate | of it was.
 The woman is Mary Callahan who 1 has been in the hospital at Douglas 1 for a long time and though she is Sl years old she became so recalcltrant | it was seemingly impossible to pro- | tect her against herself or protect | others from her and as her mental | balance was evidently affected it was thought best to commit her.
 The other insane patient is a Mex ican. Ignacio Matto who had been in the asylum before and who after his | release committed a crime for which he was hardly resonsible even though it was a vicious one and he was re- committed. His insanity is attributed
 to a hurt received in the head some 1 years ago by contact with a lOcOmO-
 tive in action.
 The three convicts are a negro
 named Arthur Gibson, sentenced tC
 serve four years for perjury; Charles
 WolschlageI sentenced to serve a veal
 for assaultinG an officer in Bisbee;
 and Jose Olcanto sentenced to a veal
 for stabbing a man at a railroad
 grading camp near Contention.
