The recular monthly meeting of the
bity council was held Tuesday evening,
Present were Mayor II. W. Turner,
Councilmett S. E. Gray, T. B. Tucker,
IV. H. Cook and W. R. Cook. Council
man "W. S. Smith came in late. Coun
cilinan T. A. Long was absent.
The minutes of the previous meeting
Vere'jead and approved.
A communication from-Amme & Gar-
row, electric ehgineers of Portland, was
read. This company wanted informa
tion about securing a franchise for an
electric light and power SA'stem. The
inatter was informally discussed though
no conclusion Was reached. The mayor
was instructed to write the Pdrtland
firm and fret them to submit a definite
proposal,
Christopher Smith, n young man
about 20 or 25 years old, last Saturday
morninc exhibited insane tendencies
and was taken in chargo by the city
authorities and held until Sunday, when
Sheriff Elkins arrived from Prineville
and took the young man there to be
judged as to his sanity.
For a day or two Smith had been
noticed to be acting and talking queer,
but on Saturday morning he took a
spite at Dr. Long's signs and pro
ceeded to tear them from the building.
He said he read in the Madras paper
that Dr. Long was n fake and that he
thought the signs ought to come down.
But little could be learned from Smith
about his antecedents. He drifted in
here the first of last week and was
employed about the Madras Hotel for
a day or two. He said he came from
Pennsylvania, and that his home was
wherever he took his hat off. This
poor bojr is more of on imbecile than
an insane subject. His talk and actions
were very childish.
"What are they keeping me here
for," he asked. "I'm. to eat and not
work. What do you know about that? ' '
