Point Is Emphasized.
Capt. Headley also emphasized the
point that the motorist about TO make
a turn should not wait until he had
reached the corner before givirg the
signal.
Plenty of time should be allowed
so that those in back of you will
be able to understand just what you
are about to do. The safe way is to
take a look back to make sure that
those in back of you know what you
are going to do. because in some cases
the car in back may he in such po-
sition that you Will have TO let him
pass before making "A turn.
Care also should he used in turn

car. Many accidents have occurred
by motorists turning directly in front
of car Judge your distances care
fully and don't unnecessarily make
other cars deviate from their courses.
A little consideration used will be
appreciated by the other man.
When turning around in the middle
of the street make sure that you have
plenty of room and are not blocking
eight or ten cars, when, by waiting
the minute or so. you could make the
turn without mountaineering any one.
A proper use of the signals set
forth and ordinary care in driving
will undoubtedly go long way to-
ward relieving the present traffic diff
lficulties in this city.

One of she saddest events brought
to attention in winnemucca. growing
out of the recent war. was when
young Harry Wagner. well known
and universally liked, suddenly be-
came crazed In Bridge street. Atten-
tion was directed to his action about
$3.50 yesterday afternoon and the
strength OF several men was required
to subdue him. Today he is in the
county Jail. hopelessly dazed. He rec
ognizes friends. but talks Of religion
and cries to be released
Wagner enlisted in the navy soon
after war broke out and was detailed
to transport duty. After a trip or SO
across the Atlantic with soldiers he
began having epileptic fits and there
after. his discharge papers show. he
was i'll twenty per cent Of the time.
These fits grew upon him and coming
here from San Francisco few lays
ago he was seized many times on the
train
Physicians say his present condi-
tion is natural outcome and that he
will recover from his present crazed
condition. He is of course entitled to
government treatment and will prob
ably be sent to a navy hospital soon.
Not wishing to wait for government
red tape to be unwound, an insanity
board was appointed today and Wag-
ner will be sent to the asylum at
Reno temporarily. This was done be-
cause he will not eat or drink and
requires immediate scientific treat
ment. 1t is thought that with treat
ment in a government hospital he will
recover.
