ACTS LIKE LUNATIC.
The Hungarian who is charged with the killing of Joseph Baohla near Otto some
time ago and who was admitted to bail, has been acting very strangely of late
and it is feared by his friends that his reason is dethroned.
He has done many queer things lately.
In one instance he divested himself of his clothing. His shirt he sent to
his wife at the house and his pantaloons he buried saying that he had sent them
to Jesus Christ. He "sent word" to the Nazarene that the had made him a
present of a pair of pants and wanted to know how they fitted him.
His case was set for today but instead of
being tried for murder he will be tried for lunacy.
