REMARKABLE INSANITY
CASE. i
Trial of A. D. ChanneH's Mental Condi-
tion Before the Board Yesterday
Afternoon.
The strangest and moat remarkable
Insanity examination ever tried by the
Board ot Insanity for Logan county
was terminated yesterday afternoon
when It found A. L Channel) of
Crescont township insane b charge
and ordered his return to the Norman
sanitarium.
This rase was commenced last Fri-
day. Then "he was as sane as any
man in his conduct during the ex
amination although Dr. McKeeby the
examining physician waa certain that
he woa insane There was nothing Inf
the evidence on that day to Indicate
ho was off. The caae was continued
until yesterday giving the sheriff time
to subpoena Channell's neighbors to
the examination. They told of hit
strange conduct In their community.
How he would takp long mysterious
visit claiming to go to polnU for
communion with tho Most High. Ho
has a bicyclo on which he made those
trip It Is fitted up for all conditions
Of woathBr and many times recently
ho has bikod around tho streets of
this city tolling many peoplo of what
a nlco time he had and how much
ntcor It was to rido over tho smooth
Streets as comparod with the country
roads. When bo was put on the
stand ho Opened his talk by showing
a card on which wore drawn ten linos
In honvy lead pencil marking. These
ho explained represented the ten
commandmonts. Ho explained that he
was a perfect man and had become so
by asking himself the question of
which commandment ho was. guilty of
violating then with close attention to
his mode ot living learned himself to
keep each one perfectly all the time
and by so doing was regenerated Into
a perfect man with nothing but love
In his mind for his fellow man. Ho
told of once following a star which led
him for several mlltfs then passed
through a brick and stone. building
which stood lonely on a wide stretch
of prairie'. There It stopped nnd ho
was bid to tear down tho building
which ha did. It then proceeded on-
ward until It desconded Into a ravine
where flowed a. cloor stream and In a
suspended state ovo rtho water It
went up and down almost touching
tho water. "Hero Is whoro he hold hla
first communion with tho Almighty
and a voloo asked him "Where is tho
wedding garments?" Ho was at a
loss to understand what was meant
but subsequently learned by roveln
Uon It was his family so he returned
to It. His talk took the stylo of a ser-
mon or lecture and as he addressed
the court and the physician ho walked
to and fro across the room. He stated
that whenever ha held one of these
communions with the Omnipotent he
always folt grandly lifted up. He told
ot BQolng many Visions indicating to
him tho granduer of a religious lite
and the expression of Iovo for his
neighbors and all mon.
This Is Channell's second time to
go to Norman having bsan turned
out a few months ago entrraly cured.
It Is thought his mind Is permanently
deranged. He waB takon away last
night.
