May 19, 1906 Page 7 Committed to Stockton Asylum AUBURN (Placer Co.), May 19 - Mrs. Jane HALSEY was declared insane yesterday and sent to the State Asylum at Stockton. Mrs. HALSEY is the wife of George F. HALSEY, a well-known Placer County miner. HALSEY's home is in Dutch Flat, but he has been engaged in mining on the American River, several miles from his home. On Wednesday Mrs. HALSEY, who is rather a frail woman, made the trip to where her husband was mining, over a hard, rugged country. She was greatly exhausted but appeared rational and HALSEY thought the trip was only a whim. As soon as he could travel he brought his wife back to Dutch Flat, and upon their arrival home the woman attempted suicide by taking carbolic acid. She was restored, however, but has since been violently insane. Delinquent List Must be Published AUBURN (Placer Co.), May 18 - The continued legal holidays have caused a queer state of affairs in the Tax Collector's office, and word has been sent to all taxpayers to pay their taxes as soon as possible to avoid having their names published in the delinquent list. While the holidays will prevent the penalties and costs being added to unpaid taxes, as long as they remain in force, the State Controller has instructed Collector Geo. E. MITCHELL that the delinquent list must be published on June 2d, the time required by law. Mr. MITCHELL is bringing this fact to the attention of the taxpayers and endeavoring to prevent a large number of solvent taxpayers being published as delinquent. The delinquent list of all taxes not paid must be published even though the publication occurs on a legal holiday. Hand Crushed PLACERVILLE (El Dorado Co.), May 19 - M.
