could not be saved because everything

The loss amounts to about 81 800, one

BODY OF CHILD THAT DIED
AT BIRTH KEPT IN HOUSE
FOR NEARLY TWO MONTHS

The body of an infant was kept con-
cealed in d shoe box for about two
months at the home of Mr. and Mrs
Ullrich Bloeckli, parents of the dead
child which was born to them in the
fore part of January and died at birth,
The discovery was made on Tuesday,
March >, by the county judge and the
under sheriff, who pursuant to com.
plant made by Joseph Bierlie, father of
Mrs Bloeckli, had gone to the Bloecki
home to see if conditions there were as
bad as they had been represented to be
by the complainant 1t was found that
the family was poverty stricken and
lived in squalor.
1t seems that the body of the dead in.
FAINT was kept in the house because the
parents had no money to give it a decent
burial.
There are five living children, the
Oldest being years of age. They were
taken to the county Jail for temporary
care. AT the Jail they were given baths
and clean clothes
On Wednesday, March Is, the parents
of the children were hailed before the
county Judge and asked to show cause
why their children should not be taken
from them During the hearing of the
case it developed that conditions at the
Bloeckli home were such that the chill
dren could not be properly cared for
and, accordingly, the five children Were
taken from their parents and committed
to st. Joseph's Catholic Orphan asylum
at Green Bay, which institution was, in
accordance with the requirements of the
law in such cases, given the guardian
ship over the children. The children
were taken TO Green Bay on March 9Th
The father is said to be a steady, in
dustrious workman The poverty OF
the family is probably partly due to the
fact that the mother is not in the best of
health
The body of the infant found in the
house was badly decomposed The
father was ordered to inter the body
and the burial took place Tuesday
night March s.

ST. JOSEPH'S CATHOLIC
CHURCH AT SILVER LAKE
IS DESTROYED BY FIRE,

Fire of unknown origin broke out
shortly after 3 o'clock last Saturday
morning in the st. Joseph's Catholic
church at Silver Lake and within few
hours the editce was burned to the
ground. TIE loss is estimated at from
$4,000 to $12, O00 Only about 30 per
cent of the loss is covered by insurance
The fire had gained much headway be-
fore it was discovered.
Father Goerlich, pastor of the church,
and the inmates of the convent made an
effort to save some of the furnishings
but almost nothing could be saved.
The church was built in 1874 Plans
for new building will be secured with
in short time. The new building is to
be much larger and more costly edifice
than the structure that was burned.

FRED SCHNEIDER FALLS SO
FEET AND SPRAINS HIS ANKLE,

Fred Schneider, an employe of the
William Rahr Sons company, fell dis.
tance of sixty feet last Thursday after
noon while at work at the brewery. He
suffered sprain of his right ankle and
bad bruises of his left foot
The fact that it was not exactly free
fall but descent by means of a rope
accounts for his escaping serious injury,
for this caused him to strike the ground
on his feet. That he lost his grip on
the rope was due to the fact that he
wore leather gloves but, fortunately,
the gloves protected his hands from
serious injary in sliding down the rope,
Mr.. Schneider was taken to DR.. Luh,
mans office, where the doctor attended
to his needs. He was then taken to his
boarding place the City house, where
he will be laid up for several weeks at

,rJCKY BEAN SAVED SAILOR.
Providence Placed Talisman in His
Hand When He Was Thrown I'M
conscious Among Cannibals.

Of all the many mysterious products
of the ocean, none can compare with the
sea- bean. Scientists are divided as to
it's origin, as no one has ever seen the
shrub or vine on which it grows, and it
is never found save when the bosom Of
the deep has been rent by hard storm,
when the sea-beans, cast forth from
some mysterious depth, are found scat
tered along the beach, derelicts of the
tide. There are numerous varieties,
large and small, and some are very rare
especially the large liver bean, and the
banded bean. The savage tribes which
inhabit the South Seas regard them as
almost sacred, and look upon the lucky
possessor of one of the rare varieties as
particularly favored by the gods. Dusky
bellies, having in their possession these
rare products of the deep, will fight for
their treasure against all comers, as they
believe that the sea-bean gives them un-
usual power, especially in love, and that
any man on whom their affections are
set, must yield to their charms if they
but touch him with the lucky bean.
One touch of the bean binds their lover
to them forever.
Mr.. Leak, manager of the Stanislaus
county exhibit cars from California, is
the fortunate possessor of rare speci-
men which has thrilling history which
would seem to prove the superstition of
the savages Of the South Sea Islands
1t was given to him by sailor friend,
who was wrecked in a mighty storm which
swept the tropical seas. The sailor, un-
conscious and nearly dead, was washed
ashore on an island, and when he recov-
cred his senses he found himself sur
rounded by crowd of savage men and
women. They were cannibals, and his
fate would undoubtedly have been hor-
rible one, but suddenly native saw
grasped in the sailors hand, one of the
rarest of the sea- beans. Where it came
from and how it happened that he held it
when he was cast upon the beach he
never knew, but the superstitious ma
tives looked upon him as one especially
protected by the gods, and the bean
proved to him lucky one indeed for it
undoubtedly saved him from terrible
fate. Some years ago Mr.. Leak be-
friended this old sailor in San Francisco,
and as a reward this lucky bean was
presented to him, and he values it high

Leak in speaking of this bean, which he
has had made into watch charm, but
