A visitor to the fruit markets of Cal

the apples there displayed. 1t is liter

Explanation of the Draft Found in

drowning of two boysin the river at this city,

especially as it adds q strange and appar-

which the reading community of this city are
familiar:
Milwaukee Sentinel, 81
A few days ago the body of an unknown
boy was found in the Mississippi river, near
St. Paul In his clothing which were found
on the bank was a draft on the bank of
Anoka, Mimi, for $500. The body was not
identified, but an attempt was made to ideu-
tify it, by ascertaining from the bank off
cials at Anoka, to whom tee draft belonged
The bank officials pronounced the signature
of the check fictitious. The coroner at ST.

by Gugler, of this city, sent the draft and q
letter which was received by Coroner Fricke,
yesterday, asking him to make inquiries of
the photographer, as he might possibly know

the body. The coroner visited Mr.. Gugler,
yesterday, and learned that the body was
probably that of Parker s. Owens, sixteen
years oiu, u 10Y SulptOYeu OY MIN, who lived
with his stepsister at III South BAY street
Bay View. The boy had vacation, and
about two weeks ago started to visit his par
ents in Dakota. On his way home he is
supposed to have stopped at st, Paul. Mr..
Gugler explained that the boy had probably
filed out the draft himself, as the bows en-
ployed by him had often done, in a playful
manner Coroner Fricke notified the coro-
ner at st. Paul of what he had learned.
1t win be remembered that the body of the
lad found in the river was identified as the
son of Mr.. Wilson, of the European hotel of
this city, and that the clothing found on the
river bank was identified by him as that worn
by his two sons, the remains of one of whom
has not yet been recovered. In the pocket
of one of the suits was found the check al
luded to in the above article. 1t was made
payable to Willie Wilson, the name of one OF
the lads drowned.
Now by way Of explanation 1t Is ressons-
Die to suppose that the lad Owens stopped in
81 Paul en- route 70 Dakota, aud that tiurino
his sojourn in this city he met the Wilson
boys; also that in playful mood he dlled
out the check with the name of the boy ana
then gave it to him as souvenir. This. mo
doubt, is the manner in which il came into
his possession, aud most likely Young Owens
is at present with his relatives.
