A FARMER resident of the neighbor-
hood of ST. Cloud, near Fond du Lac, re-
ports that dogs are killing the sheep
thereabouts. The focks of Messrs.
Knowles and Smith were molested few
nights ago. Recently one dog was
caught killing sheep and was killed, and
the farmers are now preparing for a
general warfare upon the CANNES.
A TERRIBLE story of brutality comes
from Huberville, near Beaver Dam.
One John Flahan, who was drunk, was
taken In hand by gang of roughs and
tied to a wagon-wheel, and dragged
around town, afterwards being compelled
to hold hot iron and submit to other
abuse. He was made raving maniac
by his ill-treatment, and the roughs have
been arrested.
LA CROSSE Republican: Con Mon
day last Frank Ehlen, a resident of the
town of Burns, left his home for this
city, taking with him $500 in cash with
which to pay some debts, and has not
been seen since, consequently his family
and friends are deeply concerned. He
intended to take the cars at Bangor, but
no information as to his whereabouts
could be obtained there. There are
fears that he has been murdered for the
money in his possession"
A BLOODY fight occurred at the
French Greek cattle fair, last Monday,
between Bohemians and Irishmen, and
the affair is now being settled IN court at
Manitowoc. A young man by the name
of Earis was stabbed in several places,
and is now in such precarious condi-
ton that it is uncertain whether he will
live. What started the row we have
been unable to learn-Tco Rivers Iron
icle.
LAST Sunday, while seated on the
porch, Mr.. @. J. Goss observed something
gliding ACROSS the walk few feet from
him. Closer inspection revealed g
spotted snake six feet in length and as
large in circumference as a good sized
arm. Mr.. Goss seized an axe and
valiently dispatched the venemous thing
with single blow. None knew the
species of the snake, and the surmise is
that it escaped from some travelling
menagerie.-Portage Democrat.
IT is reported that the condition of the
young girls who were injured by the
collision of two hand cars at Browns
vile, near La Crosse, few days ago, is
but little improved. Maggie Timmisch,
who had one of her legs broken and the
other mashed very badly, is gaining
slightly; but Mary Schwartz, both of
whose legs were broken and mashed, and
otherwise injured, is still suffering in
tense agony. The greater part of the
time she is unconscious, and the doctors
attending her are still doubtful as to her
recovery.
EAU CLAIRE Press: During the pro
gress of the sham battle at the soldiers
reunion at our neighboring village of
Neillsville last Thursday, a 12-pound
field piece was prematurely discharged
while James Delaine, one of the gunners,
was ramming the cartridge. His shirt
was blown off and his body burned, his
right arm broken above the wrist and
one of his hands badly mutilated; the
upper thumb joint was also broken, and
most of the flesh of the palm carried
away. His thumb will require amputa-
ton, and there is a possibility of losing
his arm.

herself by cutting pieces of shingles on
one OF the small saws, and as she care
lessly reached over the saw to get q
piece OF shingle which lay on the other
SIDE OF the saw two fingers were
taken off in twinkling. The accident
occurred SO suddenly that the unfortun-
ate girl apparently did not realize the
fact that che had lost two fingers. She
at first looked at the injured hand, then
picked up one of the fingers which had
been taken entirely of, viewed it calmly.
looked at it, then looked at the hand
again, and then ran from the mill to her
home crying.

fellows after arrest and in the lail thew

were overcome. The girl was severely
injured, the brute Canary having cut
her in the hand during her struggles.
