MAY HAVE Persisted.
Three Oshkosh People Disappear and
Are Thought to Be
Drowned.

Oshkosh, Wis, Nov. 26.-[Special.l /
Three Oshkosh residents, a man and two
young women, are believed to have per-
ished in the icy waters of Lake Winnie
bago.
Carl Yost, Mrs. August Manner, and
Miss Ada Stoll have been missing since
FRIDAY afternoon, the two latter simply
leaving their home with shawis thrown
over their heads, to take Yost his lunch,
which he had left behind while calling
at the Manner home, on his way for
a hunting trip.
The boat was moored some distance
from the Manner residence and the wom-
en- ran after him and none of the party
has been seen since. The theory is that
1ost invited the women to take a short
ride in his skiff, before he started, and
that the frail craft was overturned. Nu-
merous parties on steam launches are
now searching the vicinity where the boat
was kept moored

SWINDLED THE FARMERS.
Timber, Then Borrows Money
and Decamps.

Hayton, Wis, Nov. 26.-[SpeciaL1-
a new swindle has been worked on the
farmers living east of here in Manitowoc
county. Several weeks ago a suave, pre-
possessing stranger made his appearance
in the neighborhood. He said he was
buying timber for the proposed electric
railroad to be built through here. Under
this assumption the farmers who had
timber to sell received him with open
arms. He never paid a cent or made a
written contract, but experienced no diff
fculty in getting promises Of any amount
of timber. When his intimacy with the
farmers had reached the proper stage, he
borrowed money in sums ranging from
$40 to S25.
Wednesday night he took the afternoon
train south, saying that he would return
the same evening, bringing with him
money to pay for some timber that was
to be shipped the next morning. He
failed to return.

PRINTING BILL UP,
Fond du Lac Board Of Supervisors Have
Stormy Session Over
Accounts,

Fond du Lac, Wis, Nov. 26.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-The printing question, which has
been kept in the background for nearly
two weeks, was aired at the closing ses-
sion Of the county board Of supervisors
and precipitated a lively discussion.
The report Of the printing committee
was finally acted upon. The amounts
disallowed are to be reconsidered at an
other session of the board to be held in
January:
$2065;4O, allowed $1155.85; p. B. Haber
Printing company Commonwealth, claim
$$lO161O, a; allowed s3296o; Ida L. Yo or ey
c. E. Broughton of Campbellsport News,
claim $46O.7O, allowed $2.15 claims of G.
II. Ellsworth of the Ripon Press for $222
$41O.lO, e. L. Howe OF the RipOn Common
wealth for $4,000 and e. D. Susan of the
Oakfeld Eagle for 5000, not allowed.
The chairman of the printing commit
tee, IN making the report, said that While
the law stated that the election notices
could be put in two and not more than
four papers, he found they had been
published in nine and when the matter
was laid before the county clerk, he de-
clared that he had received authority
from the secretary Of state to use that
many publications, but when asked to
produce the letter, he could not find it.
A resolution was then introduced that
the bills of the Reporter Printing COM
pany be allowed, be passed upon and that
the balance be referred back to January
session with the privilege Of getting out
side advice. This brought James FenelOn
to his feet and he shouted that if they
could not get advice from the district
attorney who is employed by the county
he would resign. He afterwards recon
sidered his actions, and the board acted
upon the matter and reached the above
decision. The Reporter Printing COM
pany and j. B. Haber cut out their bills
for publishing election notices in their
weekly editions voluntarily.
The committee OH finances, after an
examination of resources Of the county,
estimated that the liabilities for the year
are as follows:
State tax. $50, 1860; county tax and poor
tax, $4,000: county school tax, 500, 716 40;
INDECENT soldiers tax, S334S02.
1t was requested that the above
amounts should be levied as described
The city of Waupun was REIN bursed for
errors Of assessments in 1902, in the sum
of $13S.60. The bonds of the various
icOunty officials elected at the last cleo
ktion were accepted, and the Commercial
National bank was awarded the contract
to keep the county funds, the concern to
pay interest on the various amounts and
furnish bond.
The bill of Louis Haber1orn, poor COM
missioner. for $1S6 for the care of the
county poor was disalloWed, the reason
given that it was illegal.

Wittenberg, Wis, Nov. 26.-[Special.l

was one Of the most disastrous fires
Known in the history Of this village.
It started just before o'clock yester-
DAY afternoon in the second story of the

Insane Before.

GAINESVILLE. Wis, Nov. 26.-Partially
CARRIED in the attire of women, with waist
tightly laced and wearing long stockings

awaiting the signing Of commitment pa
pers which will send him to the hospital

fancy design and the collarette and hand
kerchiefs are trimmed with costly lace.

has worn mems outer apparel, but has
always dressed otherwise as a woman.
His Attire for Evening.
In the evening, his work done, he has
dressed in his gaudy garments. From
the tie of his dainty Oxfords to the lace
Of his collarette he is to the observer a
woman.
For nearly three years this has been
going on and finally after threatening the
lives Of his wife and 13-year-old son he
was taken in custody by Sheriff Appleby,
and this morning examined as to his
sanity by Drs. James Gibson and Buck
master and adjudged insane. When ex-
amined by the physicians tbs morning

allowed to leave. He said he dressed as
a woman because it pleased him; that he
secured mental pleasure while CARRIED as
q woman.

He remembered nothing Of having
threatened his wife with a revolver.
Eight years ago it seems that Heller was
believed insane by his Chicago friends.
He was taken in custody by the police,
