The Story of How Two German Girls Were Saved from Ruio, A Brace of Chicago Villains Folled by an Ola Newepaper Man Trying to Kidnap the Inno- cent Creatures for Vile Purposes, The OChleago, Burlington & Qalney tealn brought to this clty, yerterday morning, two young ladles, German girls, who left Florence, Italy, eix weeks ago, and were on thelr way to joln relatives at San Francieco, To fully round ont the somewhat remarkable story, which follows, let it be known that the names of theso young ladies are Margarota Durenberger and Eliza Grenlz, The former is a daughter of Baron Jacob Darenberger, who recently died at Basle, Switzerland, Her mother Is also dead, and being left in that far.away land without near relatives or friends, Marga- reta started to make her future home with an only brother, who lives at Betha- ny, San Joaquin county, Cal. The other young lady, who s the daughter of very wenlthy parents, her father being now bergomaster (mayor) of Statten, Ger- many, accompanfed Miss Durenberger, and goes to visit an aunt who llves at Oakland, It so bappened that on their arrial here they were in the company of Mr. Will Vischer, a well known western newspaper man, and wife, who were en route to Cheyenne, and the entire party remained in Omaha until eight o’clock last evening, wheqg they took the over- land Unton Pacific train and pro- ceeded on theic westward journey. At the depot & reporter for the Bee met Mr, Vischer, and from him ascertalned some facts relative to the young ladies which may be told in these lines: After leaving Chicago Sunday, Mr. Viecher and his wife notlced two very smoothe talking, well dressed lake side villalns, psylng exceedingly close at- tentlon to the young ladies, offering them all sorts of inducements to forego thelr journey in the direction of San Francieco farther, and accept homes at elegant country eeats near Chicago. One of the hounds rapresented to Miss Durenberger that he owned an Immense stock farm, had 400 head of fine horses, but had no children, therefore If she wounld go to his house and be a companlon for his wife, horses, carrlages, fine clothing, jewelry, money, and in fact anything her fancy craved, would bes hers. Mrs. Vischer being able to understand and talk Ger- man, heard this conversation and sealng that the glrls were badly frightened, told her husband of the dangerous trap they were falllng into. He went to one of the fellows and warned him that unless he let the girls alone there would be trouble. Vischer's conversation was to the effect thav he, a native Virginian, had been nine years among miners In the Rocky mountaine, therefore would not see Innocent, unprotected females imposed on by deslgning scoundrels wit} out making complaint. At that Mras. Vischer took the glrls into reats with her, and cut the two smart alecs off from having any more converzatlon with them. The glrls were 80 overjoyed at finding frlends that they wept and went on over Mrs, Vischer as though she had been thelr mother, just dropped like an angel down out of the clouds. The vil'ains, howaver, still pursued them, and never loft the train until it’ reached Council Rluffs, There Mr. Vischer called an officer and pointed them out to him,a transaction which they Interpreted right- ly, and made themselves scarce, though they threatened all sorts of dire dlsaster to Mr. Vischer. After coming to the depot on this slde of the river Miss Durenberger discovered that part of her money was gone and it is supposed that the lont with four hundred fancy horses must have picked her pock- ets. It was then learned that, by reason of their Ignorance regarding the ways of this’country, and inabllity to speak a word of English, the girls had been grosely imposed upon ever slnce they landed In New York. At Castls Garden Miss Grentz had been gold an emigrant t'cket for first-ciass passage and until they reached Chicago both traveled in the emigract cars, though Miss Darenbergar had purchased a first-class ticket. But rather than separate from her compan- fon ehelpraferred to bunk in the emi- grant sleeper. While here Mr, Vischer went to Mr, Morse and had him raise Miss Grentz's ticket to a first-class pas- saga, Their frlends were telegraphed to last n'ght and will met them at Ogden, Milss Durenberger {s a handsome girl and highly educated. Only a few years ago she graduated from ths young lidles’ seminary at Paris. She lsabout the avarage helghth, slim, well-formed figure, and would attract atiention avy place. Mies Grentz is also good-looking and stylish. Being the daughters of wealthy and titled parents, of course they have bien pampered, petted, and kept con- fined, therefore knew nothing, compara- tively, beforo starting on this trlp abont the ways of the world, and travellng alone it s qulte remarkable that they had not been decoyed and lured to thelr ruin long before now. They can thank Mr, Vischer and his wife for their deliverance feom the handsof a pair of blackhearted sooundrels, who would surely have cap- tured and carried them off to some den of gin and shame. — T FAMILY MARKET BASKETY, Delicacies Afforded by the Local Marts—Prices, The local warkets are becomlng well- stocked and the housekeepsr has no trouble in finding plenty of materlsl to select from in cooklng tho three meals a dsy, The situatlon is briefly summed up below: FISH; In the fresh watser article, white fish, trout and baes retail at 15 cents per pound; white plokersl Is sollivg at 10 cents; cropple and perch can be had for 12} cenf are juat coming in end sell for 12} to 15 cents & pound.

Meyer Co., Omahe, Neb, SOUTH OMAHA The Advartage of Settling in the New Town The title “South Omaha’ doesnot mean thesouthern part of the city of Cmaha.lxzt is the name of the thriving town commencine at the Union Stock yards on the south, and extend ing for a mile and a half north, nearly connecting with thecity limits of Omaha. The company have again concluded to put on sale 1,000 lots, and let the purshaser of the same realize the profit which the enhanced valus of these lots is sure to make, It now being an assured fact that South Omaha is destined—in the near future—tebo the largest live stock marl ago, there can be no doubt that this property in a few years will be worth five or even ten times the amount that it can be bought for to-day. Some may ask: If this is 6o, why dc not the comapany keep it and realize this profit The snswe! that in order to meke lots valuable, there nust be improvemenss on or sur rounding theni, and as is the case in all new towns, special induce rents must be offored first to et the pzople to take hola and build, There are probably more such inducements offered by South Omaha than were ever pu forth by any now town. The large business done by the stock yards eompauy aud the im- mense slaughter &nd packing houses together with their auxilari s are no small festuro i ¢ aggregate of events that ave destined to make South Omaha a Jrirge pdaco.
