the UndOing OF Grand Forks
Negro, ,


Squirrel whiskey when combined
with quinine proved too much for
General Jackson Jones, colored. at
Calvin a few days ago, and as a result
the general had some trouble in per-
suading the county insanity board that
he was not a fit inmate for the funny
house, at Jamestown.
Jones was. on a pleasure trip. with
q friend. and bought a large quantity
Of forty rod. Of which he partook.
The alleged whiskey failed to agree,
however. and he formed the brilliant
idea Of taking some quinine to coun-
teract the effects.
When he came to he was in the
county Jail.
His strange actions had led to a
suspicion that he was insane but the
county insanity board decided that 1t
was merely a case Of too much "boot-
Leg BOOZE.
