FREMONT, Neb.. July 17.-(Spccial Tele-
gram)-A letter was received here today CIV
ing the somewhat sensational information
that Edward Austin, a former resident OF this
regular artillery in the Philippines. was Ed
ward F. sullivan, son Of a prominent Trlni-
dad, Colo, citizen and that he had been
kidnapped when a s-year-od baby. probably
by a Mrs. ostenberg.
Mrs. ostenberg and her husband came to
Scribner, Dodge county, about 1888 from
some place in Colorado, bringing with them
this boy. supposed 10 be their son. They
rented a house in a secluded neighborhood
and appeared to shun their neighbors. os-
tenberg was a locomotive fireman and away
from home most of the time. Eddie was a
ttmid-appearing boy who was not permitted
to play with other children and was kept
closely to the house.
In 1891. ostenberg was run over by an
engine in the yards at Scribner and died of
his injuries. His wife died a few weeks
later. In the course OF settling up the estate
Of the two, Judge Hollenbeck. then the at
torney for the administrators, discovered
that the boy was not ostenberg's son. He
also learned his real name, but thinking
there was a stain against the boys birth, did
not divulge the matter to him, believing that
1t would be better for the boy, then about
10 years old. to grow up believing in the in
tegrity Of his mother.
Changes His Name.
Ostenberg changed his name to Austin
when IA years OF age and struck out for
himself. After engaging in various occupa-
tons he finally went to Honolulu, where
he lived for several years. Austin always
had an idea that the ostenbergs were not
his parents. He had a dim recollection of
his mother dying and of a strange woman
who wanted him to go with her and of a
long ride on the cars. He also remembered
something OF his father. He enlisted in the
Sixth artillery in Honolulu.
While in the Philippines he became ao-
quainted with some Trinidad. Colo. people.
and learning OF them the facts OF the Sui
Ivan boy having been stolen he became
convinced that he was the missing boy. His
father is still living in Trinidad. AS sooQ
as he can obtain his discharge he proposed
to hunt his relatives.
1t is not thought that ostenberg had any.
thing to do with the kidnapping. but thai
it was done by his wife before their mar
rage.

would have the preference In being assigned

Senator Turley Saved the Rats.

A Tennessee representative tells a
story illustrative of Senator Turley s
humane disposition.
In Memphis, he said, Senator Tur-
ley's house, like many another house
there, was infested recently with river
rats. Mrs. Turley wanted to poison
them, but the senator would not agree
to this. 1t was decided to buy half
dozen wicker rattraps.
The traps were SET and the first night
a dozen big fellows were caught. Sen
ator Turley awoke early next morning,
reused his little children and gave them
30 cents to turn the rats loose.p He
could not bear to see them killed.
The little Turkeys soon had a snug
sum in their miniature banks and had
a standing job for several weeks.
Mrs. Turley often wondered why the
rats did not decrease. Washington

HUMCR OF TIE HOUR.

There is good old lady out Grand

discrimination in the giving of charity.
She will not listen long to one of the
stock tales of woe, but is liberal in CIV

is deserved. A strapping fellow, long of
beard, but short of clothing, appeared
at her back door recently

lose it? In other words have you seen
