MAN WITH BLANK
Mind IS A
MYSTERY
STUDENT IN AN ENGINEERING
COLLEGE CANNOT REMEM-
Der THE PAST

Pullman, Wash, Dec. 12.-The most
remarkable case of lost identity ever
brought to the attention Of the in
structors in psychology at the State
college is that of a man, about 95
years old, intelligent and of studious
inclinations, who enrolled in the de
partment of civil engineering at the
beginning of the college year. He
gives the name of William Summer
vile, but the college authorities have
no proof that that is his true name.
Every recollection of his past life
is blotted from his memory with the
exception of three items.
summerville says that he remem-
bers clearly that his parents were
drowned in the Galveston flood. Be
sides this he has a faint remembrance
Of seeing Maude Adams. the actress,
and of being member Of a surveying
crew in central Washington some
months ago.
An examination of 4Summerville by
the college professors in psychology
shows that he has an acquaintance of
surveying instruments, but that he is
deficient in a knowledge of mathem-
atics essential to the practical survey
or. TR
He has proved an Industrious stu
dent and spends much time in the col
lege library reading works on history
and science. He seems familiar with
textbooks on botany and trigonometry.

is paying his expenses at the college

up for dead after the cabin on his
homestead was dynamited September
5.
Last Wednesday friends Of Colby
who reside in Spokane fret learned Of

vince them that the missing home
steader and the student are the
same person, although the student
has refused to recognize his old &C
quaintances.
One parallel in the case that is
cited is that Colby has learned some
thing Of surveying while in the log
ging camps, and the student also
showed knowledge along this line.

FREEDOM WAS BRIEF.
texas" Morsette, Inside Turnkey at
Jail, Makes Unsuccessful Break.

Through a foolish move on his part,
Texas" Arthur Morgette, who had
for a short time past occupied the
somewhat responsible position as in
side turnkey at the Kennebec jail, has
lost that position. and from now until
the expiration of his term of imprison-
ment will be allowed no more privileges
than the other prisoners-perhaps not
as many.
The cause of Texas" undoing WIS
doubtless a desire to get away from
the jail and its associations. He was
committed to Jail Il few weeks ago,
from the Augusta municipal court to
serve a sentence of 80 days, for intox-
icatlon, and had lately been acting as
inside turnkey, on account of the last
incumbent OF that position having
served oat his sentence, which left a
vacancy to be filled.
He served in that capacity very well,
but on Tuesday afternoon the desire
for liberty overcame his good iude-
ment, and acting upon the impulse of
the moment, he went to the room in
the basement of the Jail, where the
painters at work on the interior of
the building kept their paints. and
made his escape from rne north door,
and found mis- way down over Court
hill to the new Maine Central station.
His liberty was short-lived, however,
for he had not been gone from the Jail
two minutes before his absence was
noted, and Deputy Sheriff Bueklin went
after him. "TcX3s WAS found at the
starlen, and though not inclined to go
back, he was induced By the sheriff to
go up over the hill and back to the jail.
But that was not all When the man
was captured he was Enthusiastically I'M
der the influence of liquor, which was
unfortunate for him, for had he been
sober the chances are that his enjoy
ment of the outside air of spring might
have been little longer.
Just how he got his liquor is not
known. but as he was in the apartment
of the Jail where work was in progress
preparatory to sending a quantity Of
seized liquor away to Boston to be rec
titled. it is supposed that in some way
lie was able to sneak some.

RUM SELLERS QUIT.
Penobscot Enjoying Biggest Drouth ef
Years, IT'S Said.


Dexter. Me, April 9-tSpeciaD.
That it is possible to enforce Names
prohibitery law and without a great
deal of furor is a very evident fact
in Western Penobscot county. InA-
mediately with Sheriff Emerson's
warning that he intended to stricely
enforce the law as long rs he remain
ed in Office, the majority of The lit
uor dealers quit selling.
The persistent raids of the sheriff
and his deputies in Bangor has APP
parently convinced the remainder thai
real enforcement was meant, for they
have shut off and the towns Of DeX-
ter, Newport and Corinna are certain
ly drier than at any time IN years and
this without a single raid i'll this see
ton of the county.
In Dexter, while it might be pos
sibie to buy a bottle of liquor from
some pocket peddler, there is not Il
single place running openly The drug
stores have stopped selling and the
hotel proprietors have openly an
nouneed that they have quit the bus
mess for good. The change from con-
ditions of several months ago is pleas
ingly noticeable.
