They have charged me so that I can feel the. current working into me. They have taken my head and caused my skull to rot and my brains have oozed out of my nose and ears and eyes while my head has de creased one-third its' Hatural size. They have turned the current on to me until my breast bone, has rotted away and I have no shoulder blades. My life is wrecked and I am a doomed man." "Where are you bound for?" was asked the prisoner.

"I want to find a Dr. Hart, of St. Helena, who saw me after I escaped from the mad house. Did I tell you how I escaped? I just took to the tall weeds one night when I was coming in from work. They kidnaped me from the Sioux Falls prison to bring to Yankton and I kidnaped myself to get away.

Well, I was at Hanscom postofflce, north of Yankton, and I met this Dr. Hart. He tested me and found that was filled with enough electricity to run a small electric light plant, and I was on the way to see him -when the men caught me and placed me in this jail. Electrieity Used Here. "They did the' same thing here These officers arc all in one big trust.

They turned the electricity in here on me. I saw it running on the floor, I felt it creep up toward my heart, and I know that I am almost doomed. I fight against its power. I try to see It and find it and kill it. but I can't do it.

That electricity is an awful thing. When my brain gets smaller and my bones decay more, I will commence to double up and in a short time there won't be anything which can stop me. "You newspaper men ought to expose this electricity. It is controlled by such men as "Warden Boler, of Sioux Falls, and B. H.

Lien, of the board of corrections and charities, and Chief Davenport here. It is something awful. I feel my breast bone being eaten away." The prisoner's criminal record as shown by the records in Chief Davenport's office correspond to the crimes which Saunders claims to have suffered for. He gives his home at Troy Mills, Linn county, Io. O'XEILI.

TAKES TO ASYLUM. Aged Man. Had Strange Vagary of Son In Mexico. After an investigation of Charles O'Neill, who came here Saturday from Howard, the board of insanity commissioners has adjudged him demented and he was taken back to Cherokee by Sheriff C. W.

Jackson;" Another proof of his insanity developed at the examination. He was taken into the sheriff's office and questioned by Col. M. B. Davis.

The old man begged that he might go free and tend to his own affairs as he once did. He- said that if they would let him go he would start for old Mexico at once. He had a son some place in Mexico, he said, who was vastly wealthy and a very prominent man in affairs He asked Col. Davis to help him to the depot and buy his ticket for him and then he would never bother him again. On being questioned how his son became so wealthy the old man said: "My son has been in Mexico a long time.

He discovered a sort, of a paint that he applies to adobe houses which makes them look as if they were built of Italian marble. He has been painting these houses for years, and now he has about $40,000,000 saved from his wojrk. I know It I could get to Mexico I could find him all right, and I want you to help me get Storm Doors, Sash, Paper At Spalding's, Third and Court streets.

Possessed of the iSoa that liis head has "been decreased In and the bones of his body have rotted away through the subtle force of electricity, C.

F. Saunders, an escaped patient from the state Insane asylum at Yankton, S. yesterday delivered himself of some theories that would do credit to a physics textbook of witchcraft days. He was taken back to the Yankton asylum at 5 o'clock last night. Saunders was located by Chief Davenport at the Minnesota hotel Sunday night and was brought to the police station to await his return to the institution from which he escaped October- 1C.

Saunders told the officers his history and stated that he was ormerjly in the Sioux Falls penitentiary, where he was serving out a sentence of nine years for attempted murder and burglary at Wilmot, S. in 1897. Owing to his condition he was removed to the state asylum last November and was an inmate there until his escape. Saunders seemed to be as sane as any man until in his conversation he struck the subject of electricity. Then his mania commenced and the terrible plight in which he imagines himself to be was described.

Jailed Through Perjury. "I am an Innocent man," exclaimed the prisoner through the bars yesterday. "I am the victim of circumstances and the most persecuted man on earth. That I am alive today Is not the fault of my enemies. I "The crime for which I was sentenced I knew nothing about and I was placed in prison on perjured testimony.

The men who committed the theft at Wilmot on September 29, 1S97, were fellows who had influential friends and they escaped. These same influential friends came to the prison and there persecuted me and tortured me in order that I might bring myself to commit suicide, so that my story might be buried with me. They hounded me and brought false witnesses against me and finally landed me in the penitentiary. Then they kidnaped me and took me to the mad house and there they continued to persecute me until I standi today a wrecked man. "There appeared against me at the trial one Warren Short, who was in reality 'Kid Leroy, of Ricevllle, and he said I was with him and we both did the job.

Leroy was given eighteen months, and I got nine years. During the robbery the town marshal, Dan Graves, got shot. Leroy said that I was the only man that had a gun. Persecuted by Officers. "While I was in.

jail Leroy came to me and offered to make out an affidavit that he had perjured himself, but the board of corrections and charities refused to let him do it. They said: 'We have that man Saunders in our power, let's keep him there. my persecution commenced. IT HAS ONE-TENTH OF A POINT THE "ADVANTAGE.

After several months' delay the reports of the inspection of Companies and by Col; J. R. Prime," inspector general, and Maj. J. F.

Hume on April 9. 1903, have arrived. Ordinarily the reports of inspection are sent into the companies within two after the event." But for some reason they were delayed this year, and as. a result no little amount of specula- i tion has been indulged in as to the na ture of the reports. The.

reports give Company a little the better of It. The score attained by the latter company is 94.7 points out of a possible 100 points, while Company attained a score of 94.6 out of a possible 100. It is to be mentioned as to Company two out of the missing 5.3 points are due to the fact that Company had no second lieutenant, which accounted for a loss of two points.
