Not Regarded
As Dangerous
ANTOINE PRIzGINT WAS MOI
COMMITTED TO INSANE ASY-
LUM BECAUSE HIS HuALLUCINA-
TIONs ARE HARMLESS.

Displaying tendencies which indi-
Gated that his faculties were impair
ed. Antoine Prizgint, who believes he
Is mining expert, was s..--eated last
Monday by sheriff Grain. while he
was wandering across the valley in
the direction OF Moseley canyon. and
held pending an examination as to
his sanity.
A lunacy commission consisting o1
Drs. A. Alexander and William r..
Gleason was appointed by Judge
Coleman to investigate the mental
condition of the unfortunate fellow
He was not committed to the hos
pital for mental diseases because the
physicians felt that he was not dan
gerous to be at large, and that he
possessed no permanent halfucina-
tions.
The examination indicated that
Prizgint was released from the in
sane asylum at Napa, California. on
December 13, 1912, and that his
father was an inmate of a similar in
stitution in the state of Washington
about seven years ago. The board
was not long in determining that the
mans mania was on mining subjects.
His first loss of reason occurred
three years aEo following the death
of his wife.
Upon being taken into custody,
Prizgint refused to get into the auto
and it was necessary for the officers
to lift him into the car. They were
compelled to carry him into the coun-
Iy jail.
One of Prizgint's peculiar stunts.
was to collect all the tin cans that he
could find and deposit them in holes
on the mountain side. He had in
formed numerous people that he had
a legal title to most of the property
in Ely by virtue of locating tun
nell site near the mouth of Robin
son canyon. He imagined that he
was a mining man. an dwas possess
ed of a delusion that he was In the
employ of company with the un-
derstanding that he was to receive
5000 a month for his services.

DILLON PLAYS WITH
CALGARY IN RENO

J. Ralph Dillon. of Ely, who is
playing in right field for the Calgary
team In the Canadian Western
league, assisted materially In the
defeat of the Reno team last Thurs
day on the Moana sandlots. the score
being IL to 1.
Lack of team work was one of the
principal reasons for the humbling OF
the aggregation from the Riverside
city A desire on the part of several
Renoites TO indulge In few grand
stand" stunts aided the Canadians
materially In getting on the right
side of the playing ledger.
Several men who wore a Reno uni.
form habitually held onto the ball,
every time they managed to grasp
the sphere. The attendance at the
game was small.
The Calgary team will play with
Ogden before returning north for the
opening of the league season. The
club is under the management OF
Brick" Devereaux, a familiar figure
in coast league circles ten years ago.

DEAL IS PENDING FOR PUR,
CHASE OF ALLEN-LACEY HOLD
INGS BY WELL KNOWN LOCAL
NINE OPERATORS.

ID. G. Demetrakapulos. of the
Athens Mercantile company, District
Attorney W. e. Billings. G. L. Shell
don and A. c. and Ernest Lindskog
returned Wednesday night from the
Red Hills country. where they were
making an examination preparatory
to taking bond and lease on the Al
len-Lacek properties from Henry
Allen of Spring valley and Lou Lacey
of Cherry Greek.
Mr. Sheldon examined the hold
ings in the interest of the new pur-
chasers, while Mr.. Billings prepared
the necessary legal papers. The trip
to the Red Hills was made in the
Overland car. belonging to Mr.. Deme-
trakapulos. with Ernest Lindskog al
lie wheel
The Allen-Lacey group were under
lease three yeais ago 10 Edw. WI.
son and Ole johnson of Ely, and
twelve car loads of high grade lead
silver ore were shipped to the Salt
Lake smelters before work was sus-
pendez on the properties through a
disagreement between the owners
and the parties operating the lease.
II is regarded by mining men as one
of the most promising propositions
in the eastern part of the state.
The tourists expected to meet a
partner of Mr.. Demetrakapulos in
the Red Hills. who intends to become
interested in the ground recently
purchased, but failed to encounter
him, as he had taken an entirely diff.
trent route.
That there will be considerable
mining activity in that section dur
ing the summer months is evident
from the fact that Robertson and
Spain are examining the mineral po-
sessions of the Luck Deposit com.
pany for Salt Lake capitalists. who
are large stockholders In the COM
pany.

Man Drowned in New York
May Have Been Harrisonian

Chief of Police Michael T. Long re-
ceived letter today from Alfred
W. Armstrong, coroner of Ontario
county. New York, requesting that
search be made in this city for rela-
tives of Patrick J. Riley, fifty years
old, who was drowned in Canan-

According to information received
by the local police authorities from
MIR Armstrong, Riley served for
large number of years in the regular
army, and had a brother named
Michael Riley, who lived in Harrison.
1t is also thought that he had a sis
ter living in this city. Her name is
said to be Katherine Riley.
Desk Sergeant James Foster. Of
Harrison, whs was asked by the
Newark police regarding the matter
said the dead man was probably a
brother of former Police Sergeant
Michael Riley. of Harrison who Is
now a resident of this city. Sergeant
Foster knew brother of the former
sergeant who, Foster says. was in the
army for over twenty years. The
Harrison sergeant also declares the
Rileys had a sister named kath-
crime.
