Kenneth farington Bellaire atill keeps the force at the county, jail in Spokane guessing as to whether he is’ really in- sane or is simply eccentric. . His condi- tion haa not improved at all since he wasexamined by the physicians last week, and he will be left for a few days longer before he is again examined. Bellairs is very ‘talkative ‘and ‘insiate on telling his troubles to evéry one whom he can get to listen to. him, until even the trusties dread to go into the apartment where he fa confined. Hav- ing talked to every one until they will no Jonger listen to him, Belluirs. has now adopted the plan-ot writing notes to the sheriff, and for the past-two or three days haa spent most of his time in thie manner. The notes‘are written on the marging torn from. newspapers, and are characteristic of the writer. One which was sent to the elieriff Monday. morning was as follows: : “fo the head of the Spokane. jail.— Sir: For a week or more I have tried to get at you—unsuccessfully, as I learn, because the head jailer ie drunk. I am dying and want strict and_ immediate care. Kerr, Bennarns.”” This not having the desired. effect of bringing the sheriff to see him, Bellairs followed itup in the afteruvon with another, which was written on an_ illus- trated page of Judge: a Spokune. Believed:to be April 24.— To the procurator governor of the Spo- kwe county jail—Sir: Confirming my previous order, I have to -teil you that I believe Iam dying--simply for want of food and treatment.
