Yesterday there arrived at the Pacific house a fine looking, middle aged gentle- man, accompanied by his wife and a young lady, they registering as A, R. Ste- vens and family, of Chicago. They were assigned to asuite of rooms and at- tracted no special attention until 1n the afternoon, when the most unearthly screams were heard and the noise of a terrible struggle. Mrs, Stevens had gone out ou & bricef errand, and when the help of the hotel hurriedly went to the room they found the door locked and heard the cries of the young lady for help. Burst- ing open the door they fouud that the man was stark mad and stark naked. In his wild ravings he would doubtless in a few minutes more have killed the young laday, had not help arrived as it did. There was a terrible struggle before the insane man could be controlled suffi- ciently to prevent him from injuring himself or those around him. He iu\d to be thrown ounto the tloor by force and held there, it requiring four or five strong men to handle him. After a little he calmed sufficiently so that with caution his clothing was got on, and then he had another raving spell, The police officers were sent for and they had quite a strug- gle with him, and had finally to put irons on him. The return of the wife seemed to calm him somewhat, but it was not deemed safe to release hini from the man- d should have another of his ng spclls.

His physician recom- mended a change of climate and so it was planned that they should go to Denver I'iiey were en route thither and stopped over here for the day. The sudden out- break of the mental malady caused a change in the plans, and with an attend- ant the family’ started back to Chicago last evening.
