CRAZED BOY BROWNS
SELF in RED RIVER.


Gordon Bonstad, a crazed boy
of l8 years old, drowned hirn-
self in the Red river at a point
about $50 yards south of St.
Michael's hospital yesterday
afternoon, after he had eseap-
ed from the care of a nurse at
the hospital.
Kept in a room on the base.
ment floor of the hospital, the
10y was held in bed with the
use of a restraining sheet. A
previous attempt at breaking
away from the hospital had
alarmed the hospital authori-
ties and they had taken espe-
cial precaution to guard the
lad.
Yesterday afternoon the
lad made his second effort at
escaping the hospital, leaping
from his bed and overpower-
ing the nurse, jumping thru
the window. screen and all,
and running down towards
the river bank.
The police were notified,
and several nurses gave chase.
The lad, clothed only in a
sleeping robe, made his way
up through the underbrush, to
a point about $50 yards north
of the hospital, where he
jumped into the Red river.
browns as Nurses Look On.
The nurses made an effort
to induce the lad to return to
shore, but he refused, and
swan around in the water for
several minutes before sink
ing to his death.
The boy was the son of MIR.
and Mrs. ]. c. Bonstad, 213
North Seventh street.
After the lads first attempt
at escape, hospital officials
had notified the parents that
it it would be necessary to place
the lad in an asylum, inasmuch
as facilities for handling such
cases at the hospital were in
adequate.
The boy. after jumping into
the river, aoated down stream
end was almost directly in
front of the hospital when he
was drowned.
In Bonstad's previous at
tempt to escape from the hos
pital, J. T. Sherfey, engineer
at the hospital, was successful
in preventing him from get
ting away. The boy climbed
up on a radiator, smashed the
whole screen, frame and all,
and jumped out of the win
dow.
The engineer followed, and
when Bonstad stumbled at the
edge of the lawn, he was over
powered quickly.
When the lad was brouaht
to the hospital, it was thought
that he was suffering from
nervous trouble.
