i .1 3 PAGE RIGHT ASHLAND TIDINGS Monday, February 22, 1019 Insane Traveler Raises Hubbub - Considerable agitation was caused In local police and railroad circles over the troubles of John Doese, a gentleman of German extraction from from Portland whose mental balance Is much doubted by the authorities. Boese was put off the train here Fri day on account of his ticket being valueless. It came out that he had bought the ticket from some obliging person in San Francisco for the trifling sum of $10, which seemed quite cheap to Boese for a ticket from the California metropolis to Portland. When the ticket was found to be worthless Boese went into all kinds of conniption fits and tore up his bank book and everything belong ing to him. Dr. Jarvis, who can speak German as well as the kaiser himself, met the unfortunate man at the station here and with the help of George Kramer the matter was un raveled. Boese has several hundred dollars in a Portland bank and tele graphed for a sufficient amount to cover lodging over, night here and his ticket to Portland. He was housed at the Sanitarium, but went down to the depot early Saturday afternoon and began acting in an unaccountable manner. Tile chief of police was summoned and arrived on the scene oc action accompanied by Sheriff Singler, who happened to be in town. They found the man to be apparently insane and upon their arrival he was playing in the middle of the street like a three-year old. He didn't like the looks of Chief Porter's uniform and took pains to make him aware of the fact. The officers brought him uptown, and while they. were un locking the city cooler their victim decided he would rather stay out doors for a while and made a breaky up the hill toward the Chautauqua building with the police force at his heels. Sheriff Singler managed to catch him and he was taken to Jack sonville and is now confined in a padded cell In the county Jail. An examination will be made and officers Will be called from Salem to take charge of the supposedly insane man. The man was entirely rational at times and his true condition was not suspected until his outbreak on Saturday.
