TWO FOOLISH GIRLS.

Some time last week, four girls ran
way from The Industrial School at Mil
yankee. Two returned or were captur-
al short while after. The others made
heir way north as far as Port Washing
ton. From thence they went west until
hey reached the 9. / \. ". road, and
managed to beat their way to Appleton.
From Appleton they directed their course
70 Manitowoc and managed to secrete
themselves on an east going train. They
we're discovered at kgukauna aud put of
From there, they say they walked to this
;ity. The sheriff received telegram
rom Milwaukee giving a description OF
he girls aud instructing their arrest
The city marshal made search for them
aud found them IN house of i'll repute
they gave the marshal assumed names,
ont he assured them that he knew a
about them aud that they could not de-
ceive him. One of them burst out cry
ing bu. the other laughed defantly aud
swore that they would be back here again
Ia a short time.
The girls names are Alice Mansfield
and Minnie Veist. They are about Il
n 16 years of age and are already rather
hardened characters. They were taken
10 the jail Tuesday and the sheriff OF
Milwaukee came for them on that eve
ming. There is not much hope for re
formation in their case.

A TRAGEDY NEAR OSHKOSH.

On Thursday last terrible tragedy
vas enacted on farm about four mile
rom Oshkosh. The neighbors of man
named Visknow found his dwelling house,
earn and granary in flames, his daughte,
wandering about, her clothes on fire and
bearing wounds inflicted by some blunt
instrument. The bones of a woman were
iound among the charred timbers of the
house, and there were also evidences chat
she met her death by other means than
ire. In the barn the bones of a man
we're found. These three, together with
q young man who had rented the farm,
constituted the family. This young man
vas engaged to be married to the girl,
and at the time Of the tragedy was alb
sent. 1t is believed that old Visknow
murdered his wife and attempted to muir
her his daughter, and possibly thought
he had succeeded, then fred the mouse,
granary and barn, ana committed suicide
ia the latter. He Gid not agree well
with his family aud had taken strong
dislike to his future son-in-law. This
accounts for his attempt to destroy all
the properly. 1t has caused great deal
of excitement.
