Insane Traveller
Raises Hubbub

Considerable agitation was caused
in local police and railroad circles
over the troubles of John Boese, a
gentleman of German extraction from
from Portland whose mental balance
is much doubted by the authorities.
Boese was put off the train here Fri
day on account of his ticket being
valueless. 1t came out that he had
bought the ticket from some obliging
person in San Francisco for the
trifling sum of $40, which seemed
from the California metropolis to
Portland. When the ticket was found
to be worthless Boese went into all
kinds of conniption fits and tore up
his bank book and everything belong
ing to him. DR.. Jarvis, who can
speak German as we'll as the kaiser
himself, met the unfortunate man at
the station here and with the help of
George Kramer the matter was un-
raveled. Boese has several hundred
dollars in a Portland bank and tele-
graphed for a sufficient amount to
cover lodging over night here and his
ticket to Portland. He was housed
at the Sanitarium, but went down to
the depot early Saturday afternoon
and began acting in an unaccountable
manner. The chief of police was
summoned and arrived on the scene
oc action accompanied by Sheriff
Singler, who happened to be in town.
They found the man to be apparently
insane and upon their arrival he was
playing in the middle of the street
like a three-year old. He didn't like
the looks of Chief Porter's uniform
and took pains to make him aware
of the fact. The officers brought
him uptown, and while they were un-
locking the city cooler their victim
decided he would rather stay out
doors for while and made a break
up the hill toward the Chautauqua
building with the police force at his
heels. Sheriff Singler managed to
catch him and he was taken to Jack
sonville and is now confined in a
padded cell in the county jail An
examination will be made and officers
will be called from Salem to take
charge of the supposedly insane man.
The man was entirely rational at
times and his true condition was not
suspected until his outbreak on Sat
urday.

questions and give advice FREE OF

An English-style cottage with hip
roof and basement makes q very salts
factory small house for certain level
locations where it is Impractical to
excayate deep enough for q regular
cellar.
There are many towns in prairie sec.
tions OF the country where the fall is
not sufficient to put in deep sewers
Also, In the more southern sections, it
Ia not necessary to dig sewers deep
down into the ground to avoid frost
1t is cheaper and more satisfactory to
lay them near the surface.
On such building sites basement
houses are quite common, and this
medium-sized cottage. with its cool.
roomy basement, Is well liked. The
basement. being principally above
ground. is supplied with windows al
most as large as ordinary house win
dows.
The Idea is to make the basement
into = splendid workroom. 1t is nat.
urally cool in summer, warm in winter
and comfortable to work in during all
seasons. It is the proper place for the
laundry and storeroom, besides pro-
viding conveniences for doing = great
many household chores.
Hip roofs are common in some CON-
munities. They are we'll liked be-
cause they are neat and attractive
In appearance. and because everybody
is accustomed to seeing hip roof, or
cottage roof. as 1t is often called. so
that such roofs are local favorites, and
they become fixed as q permanent
fashion.
The pitch OF the roofs varies In diff
ferent sections. according to the
amount OF rainfall Also, the material
for covering roofs varies In the differ
ent parts Of the country. owing TO local
fashions or customs. and to the fact
that certain roofing materials are
cheaper In some places. and conse-
Quently are more In demand.
