J. G. Duncan, the man who was taken up at Brooks for ins anity, died yesterday at the St. Joseph's hospital. The cause of his death is given as paresis.
 MT. Duncan was brought to town December by Deputy Marshal Frank Miller, of Brooks, arriving late in the evening, and was at once taken to the detention hospital. When he was examined by the gov ernment physician it was found that he was seriously ill, and he was at once taken to St. Joseph's hospi- tai, where he was given every possi- ble care.
 He was between forty-five and fifty years of age. He was born in Indiana and resided there during the early part of his life, being school teacher in that state. From there he went to Texas and engaged ing Texas went to Seattle, where he worked for a commmision house There are conflicting reports as to when he came North, one account saying that he went to Juneau in 1901, and another that he came to the Interior about 1906. He was well known in this district, as he worked in and around here for several years.
 R. M. Brown states that MT. Dun can was member of the Forest CTS, in good standing. He also says that the man was sane three days prior to the time he was taken up at Brooks for insanity. For this reason the Foresters will have a medical examination made of the re- mains to ascertain whether there could have been any foul play, ac- cording to MT. Brown. A meeting of the Foresters will be held tomor- row afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Railroad Cigar store. and all Forest CTS are requested to attend.

In the charge and in the melee the

his success. To increase this often
