ROSEBURG, May L I notice in your Issue of Friday, April 23, a letter from "A Subscriber," and be fore,, that a report from this place and certain editorials In your paper relative to the sending of James G. Clark, of this county, to the Oregon Insane Asylum. In addition to this I am informed that certain people here and elsewhere In this county have taken It upon them selves to present "facts" which would, if true, have a tendency to bear out the statements heretofore referred to. I ask spade In your paper to make a statement of the facts, believing The Oregonian did riot publish or dictate the statements for personal reasons or' feeling against me. In tie latter part of 1894, James, G. Clark wanted meto take what he had and allow him to live with my family. I found that he had & life estate in 133.89 acres of his wife's part, or half of the old donation claim, of James G. Clark and wife, CI. No. 51,' located near Canyon vllle, Oregon; that Mark D. Brlggs held the title to the said land excepting the life Interest of James G. Clark; that his (Clark's) personal property amounted to one old mare and colt, one 2-year-old filly and some old articles of various kinds amounting in value to about $20 or $25. Clark proposed to deed me his life in terest in the land and give me the per sonal property If I would take him in my family and keep him, provided that he wanted the proceeds received from the two-year-old Ally to be used for the pur pose of putting a grave stone or slab at his brother's grave. I Anally agreed to the arrangement and made arrangements for a division of the land, Brigga to take what was lying on the west side of the County road and I to take the other side, Clark to deed his life Interest and I to pay. him $250 for his interest in the part I was to receive. By this arrange ment I secured title to 57.92 acres and Mark D. Briggs to 75.97 acres The deed from Brlggs to myself, consideration $250, is recorded in Deed Record, Vol. 32, p. 282, for Douglas County, Oregon. The deed for Clark's life interest to Brlggs Is recorded In Vol. 33. p. 339, afore said record, consideration $100. The deed of Clarke life interest to myself is re corded in Vol. 32, p. 283, aforesaid rec ords, consideration $1, and the following: "With the understanding that H. J. Wil son is to maintain, support and keep me as one of his family during the remain der of my life." The filly I sold for $20 and put a marble slab at the grave of John Clark, paying $20 therefor. The colt I kept until 3 years old, pastured and fed It and sold for $12 50. The old mare I traded off and a short time afterwards was offered her back for $5. I make this statement 'in order that the value of the personal prop erty may be determined. After January 3, 1595, Clarli lived with me and was treated as one of the family until it became necessary to place him where he could be constantly and -woll cared for. I have clothed him, bought tobacco for him (an article not used in my family), and he has not wanted for anything that was necessary for his comfort. He has used my parlor for a bedroom for over five years. For the past 18 months he has at times been what most people term "out of his head," and these spells continued and would come oftener and last longer as time wore on. For the post year I have had some one at home with him con stantly, as I considered it both unsafe and dangerous to leave him without some one to watch him. He was at times so unbalanced that he could not even find his bedroom, and at other times abusive. I was compelled to be away from home a great deal and the last few times I was away before trying to se cure a place for him the neighbors had to be called in to attend him. He was in such a state mentally that he could not be trusted to clothe himself. After selling my place near the fair grounds I had to move my family away and give possession. I could not care for Clark while moving and then not afterwards, as I could not get a suitable house. I made arrangements with Mrs. Ketchell to keep him for one month on trial and see if she could manage him. He was not there three days until she informed me she could not keep him. Knowing his mental condition, I saw no other course to pursue than to have him committed to the asylum. I have never claimed that he was violently in sane, but I do know that he was what I would call insane to that extent that he must be cared for. He was, after due ex amination and report by two physicians, committed to the Oregon Insane Asylum. Now, In conclusion, I will state that I kept James G. Clark "as one of my fam ily" as long as it was possible for me so to do. I am yet willing, if those extraordinarily conscientious par ties will find a place where James G. Clark can be cared for at a reasonable sum, to have him kept and pay for It. This statement is made with due knowl edge" and deliberation and I challenge anyone to disprove It. I leave the mat ter now with the public and feel that a just verdict will be rendered me In this matter. H. J. WILSON. WHAT THEY DO TELLING JUST WHAT THEY DO FOR SICK FOLKS AT THE COPELAND INSTITUTE.

The committee of clergymen appointed by the Ministers' As sociation of Chicago to Investigate the ef fect of the abolition of the Army canteen at Fort Sheridan paid a secret visit to the post today, and ran into a hornet's nest. The reports of the people living near the post have been to the effect that the num ber -of intoxicated soldiers near the post has been materially Increased since the abolition of the canteen, and the ministers went to the post to investigate for them selves. Colonel Van Home caused a sensation by asking Dr. Parkhurst, a member of the committee, as to the authority of an al leged interview In which he was made to accuse the Army officers of receiving liquors without bills attached.
