BIG CATCH OF FISH.
Immense Amount of Herring Taken
from the Waters Of Green
BaV.

Sturgeon Bay, Wis, Nov. 13.-[Spe-
cial. THE catch of herring in the vicini-
ty of Little Sturgeon is reported as some
thing remarkable and fishermen in that
locality are simply overwhelmed with
nets have contained as high as eight
tons of these fish at single lift, and
although two tugs are employed in mar
keting the catch to the Green Bay mar
ket, they cannot transport them fast
enough, which necessitates the sailing of
a part of them.
Fishermen are paid at the rate of 25
cents per hundredweight for this species
of fish when taken from the nets fresh,
at which price there is a better profit
than when obliged to salt them in casks.
A large number of herring are also being
taken north of here in the vicinity of
Sister bay, though in no such quantities
as in the southern part of the county.
Green Bay, Wis, Nov. 13.-ISpecial.l
nets rapidly and the catch which is be-
ing brought in is falling off decidedly.
Instead of 100 boxes of fish which the
Denessen boats have been bringing in
each trip the last time they came in
they only brought thirty-seven. Almost
all of the pound nets on the east Shore
have been taken out and the fishermen
will lay back until after the ice is thor
oughly formed.
The fishing industry is greater out of
here than is supposed by most people.
600 pounds of fresh fish since the first
of January. The other fish dealers have
not handled as much, but in all proba bill
ity the estimate of fish handled would
reach 100000 pounds. This has been
shipped both east and west.

HOUSE FULL OF GOODS.
What an Arrest for Shoplifting Re-
Vealed to Waukesha Mer-
ChantS

Waukesha, Wis, Nov. 12.-[Special.]-
Mrs. Elizabeth Jones of 200 East Main
street was arrested this morning on a
charge of shoplifting and a most interest
ing state of affairs has been disclosed.
John Brehm Of Brehm Bros. swore out
the search warrant which led to the ar
rest, as last evening he alleges he saw
Mrs. Jones take bolt of green velvet
under her shawl and carry it to her
home. When the sheriff went to the
house with the warrant he found lot of
new goods of all descriptions lying III
plain sight and after pulling the piles to
pieces variety of articles which p.1ght
stock a small dry goods store was dis
PLAYED. The sheriH's schedule shows
that there are twenty-six suits of boys
clothes, fftX-fve pairs of ladies and
children's shoes, both tan and black,
and all kinds of dress goods
ladies' waists, lace, hats and caps, over
coats, ETC., to the value of something like
$500. Clerks from Christoph's, Tassefs,
Hepps, Brehm's, Jacobson's and other
dry goods stores have identified various
of the articles as their own. Some OF the
merchants tell how they have detected
the woman before in the act of carrying
off merchandise.
Mrs. Jones was born in Germany and
is the widow of Hubbard Jones, who
was found drowned in his cistern three
or four. years ago. She has lived for
fifteen years in her present home. She
has six children, ranging from 3 to Ii
years of age. Her husband had consid-
cradle insurance on his life and SO she
has been supposed to be in good circum-
stances. Her neighbors say she is an
odd woman
When seen in jail Mrs. Jones begged
in a choking voice for her baby and
asked where it had been taken She
protested that she had bought all the
goods in her house except the fateful
green plush. She has been anxious for
her children and has purchased large
supplies for them. Why should she steal
around the city. She said in proof Of
her statement about large purchasesethat
two weeks ago she borrowed 500 and
now has but $40 of it left

DEED OF A MADMAN.
frederick s. Puetz, a Sculptor,
Missing from Chicago, Found
at GAINESVILLE.

GAINESVILLE, Wis, Nov. 12.-Frederic S.
Puetz, a decorative sculptor, who for
merly had studio at 1920 Ellis avenue,
Chicago, and who has been missing since
October %, is now in Jail here, a raving
maniac. His arrest was caused by u
farmer, whose baby he had plunged into
a snoWbank, and after he had tramped
fully ten miles on foot through fourteen
inches of snow between midnight and Z
o'clock in the morning
Some OF the eccentricities the man ex-
h'blted the fore part of the week, in
Guiding his escape from a constable, have
been related in previous dispatches. 1t
appears that after jumping into the con-
stables buggy at the Hanlan farm, leav-
Ing the officer to nurse his anger as best
he could, Puetz drove at top speed for
seven miles and then abandoned the
morse, striking out across the country on
foot.
At John Woods farm, two miles from
where the horse was left, Puetz dashed
into the house and seized Woods baby,
which was asleep in it's cradle. Mrs.
Wood screamed for help, and when her
husband came he saw Puetz bolt out Of
the house with the child and roll it
in snoWbank. He said he was bap-
tizing it. Wood and his three hired
men then overpowered Puetz and brought
him to GAINESVILLE, where he was locked
up.
Puetz said he left Chicago on October
% He had been walking about the
country ever since, but did not know
where he had been. He expressed him
self as anxious to get back to Chicago,
and was willing to start at once, bare
footed and in the snow. Relatives are
expected to come here for him.

CAMPED IN THE RIVER.
Two Tomahawk Hunters Have q Nearly
Fatal Experience.

Tomahawk, Wis, Nov. 13.-[Special.]
Charles Pierce and Joseph Violet were
returning home from hunting Tuesday,
and when about four miles from the city,
at 10 p. M, their boat became fast in
the middle of the river, caused by the
heavy snowstorm then raging. 1t being
dark, they could not see which way to
go to get to land and so were compelled
to remain there until morning, when they
attempted to wade and swim to shore,
some 300 feet. The water was SO deep
and full of snow that they had to aban-
don the idea and so wrapped themselves
in their blankets and waited until the
river became frozen hard enough for
them to crawl to shore, which they sue
ceeded in doing yesterday at 10 a. N.
Upon reaching the highway they were
picked up and taken to town in quite
an exhausted condition, after having
spent two nights and one and oue-half
days without food or shelter in heavy
storm upon the water.

BANK OF LODI WINS.
Action Against the Washburn Elec-
trio Light and Power
COmDanV,

Washburn, Wis. Nov. 14.-[Special.l-
The case Of the Bank of Lodi vs.. the
Washburn Electric Light and Power
company, an action to recover balance
due on a note Of $500 given by the
company to A. G. Probert and sold by
him to the plaintiff, came up yesterday.
The note was sent by the Lodi people
to Probert for collection and the latter
turned it over to the Lighting company
without any money payment, it after
ward turning out that it was simply an
accommodation note given by the Light
ing company to Probert to be used by
him as he wished.
The Lodi bank first sued Probert,
claiming he had converted the note to
his own use, and secured Judgment
against&lim, on which Judgment they col
lected $211. They then came on the
Lighting company for the balance, the
defense being that the Lodi bank hav-
ing sued Probert was stopped from suing
the makers of the note. The court took
a different view of the matter and di-
rected verdict for the plaintiff for the
balance due, or 1883, with costs.

PASSED FORGED CHECKS.
Sharper in the Guise of a Farmland Vic
timizes Portage Merchants

Sharper in the Guise of Farmland Vic
timizes Portage Merchants
Portage, Wis, Nov. 12-[Special. IA
young man who had the appearance of a
farmland succeeded in passing forged
checks upon several business men yes
terday afternoon. The checks were all
drawn on the City bank of Portage in
favor of c. Heller and purported to be
signed by Ole NJ. Bendixen sheriff elect
of this county, for whom the man said
he had been working as a farmland.
His method was to enter a store, make
small purchase, and offer a check in pay
ment and receive the change in cash.
In most instances he was successful in
working off the checks, as the apparent
genuineness of Mr.. Bendixen's signature,
the young mans plausible story and the
small amount for which the paper was
drawn aroused no suspicion. The
amounts so far known to have been Sc
cured by him aggregate $50. The Off
GERS made a diligent search for the young
man. but could find no trace Of him.
