A TRAMP called on one of our popular
Catholic clergymen a few DAYS ago and
begged for pair of shoes. The benevO-

Strengthened up and with hopeful assur-
ance said he stopped now to beg, but the
time would not be long till they would
demand shoes and whatever else they

interest and curiosity of the reverend

/ LAST Saturday a horrible accident
/ happened in Howard d Davis Touring
mill, at Neenah. An old man named
| Oberlee, head miller in the mill, by
some means had his arm caught and
! drawn in between two mammoth cog
wheels. He was taken up bodily from
the floor, and whirled around so that his
/ feet were hurled through a window,
which, together with his cries, attracted
attention. The mill was stopped, and
! the machinery had TO be backed up with
crow bars before his arm could be cot
out. This occupied fully ten minutes,
during which time he suffered terrible
agony. The arm, both flesh and bones,
was so horribly crushed and mutilated
| that it had to be Immediately amputate q
between the elbow and shoulder. ODER
! lee is an old man, nearly sixty wears of
age, and was alone in the mill when the
accident occurred Oshkosh N0rtirestera'
A SHOCKING tragedy was enacted at
| Freedom, fifteen or sixteen miles from
this city yesterday, being the culmina-
ton of drunken spree. Such particu-
! lars as could be gathered at this writing
we obtained from Mr.. VIM. Munroe, of
Fort Howard, who operatesa mill at that
place. 1t appears that James Garvey,
his wife, and an Oneida Indian named
Levi Parker, had been keeping up a
drunken carousal for about three
days. Yesterday Garvey was found
dead, his head having been literally
chopped in two pieces. Near by was an
ak covered with blood. There was no
direct evidence to criminate the Indian,
but he was arrested and held for the
crime. He asserted that he did not muir
der Garvey, and knew nothing about the
commission of the crime. The wife Of
the dead man was found with her face
all battered and blackened, tending to
prove she had been fighting with some
one, She says the Indian did the deed
| We understand the Garveys have been
notorious and hardened characters in
that neighborhood for years. Green Bay
Gazette, 23d.
