Committed to tho Asylum.
Clarence Meek, a well known young
man of the Ferry Canyon neighborhood,
was arrested on a charge of insanity 011

a hearing in Justice Ncale's court, was
committed to the asylum for the insane
atSulem. Sheriff Wilcox and Herbert
Halstead left for Salem with the unfort
unate young man in charge on the same
day.
Meck's insanity was not of a violent
type but rather seemed to be in the na
ture of religious mania. He believed
himself to l the "Son of Man", claim
ing that Clarence Meek had been trans
formed into that personage During a
visit to Portland, a year or songo, he
joined the Salvation Army and since
that time religious fervor seems to have
grown on him to such an extent as to
unbalance his mental faculties. It is to
be hoped that a course of proper treat
ment at the asylum will soon elffct a per
manent cure.
