A Queer Case.
Win. Mrensley Austin who disap
peared from his home in Omaha on
December tith has been located in
the Douglas county poor house and
the following is an account as pub
lished by the Dec:
The blotter at the central police
station shows that near the hour ol
midnight on December tith, an in
dividual was arrested who gave his
name as Wm. ISrensley. He was
booked a hav ing "snakes" and the
city physician called and the man
was sent to the county jail, where
he remained until the 1Mb, when
the insanity comniissoti ordered
him sent to the poor farm.
A list in declares that he arrived in
Omaha on the day he was arrested
that he was met by three men on
his way up town who robbed him of
a watch and his overcoat. He
followed them until the policeman
caught him. He declares that he is
kept in the institution that the rela
tives of Austin may secure some
valuable property that was left to
him in Ireland "upon the death ot
his father.
I'pon every subject except the
one regarding his connection with
Austin he (talks rationally as any
man can, but when that is brought
up he declares that A list in is dead
and that he is Wm. Mrensley.
"Would you like to see your wile
ami biivsr" was asked.
In reply he said he would like to
see anybody as it would v ary the
monotony.
. Shortly alter this Mrs Austin was
notified that her husband w as at the
poor farm. Mrs. Austin and child
ren hastened to the scene.
When the party entered the room
Austin gazed from one to the other
and then in a low tone of voice he
remarked to t he attendant :
"I wish you would tell me who
these people are':"
The poor woman being unable to
conceal her feeling, broke down and

boys looked into the eyes of their
father, hoping that he would speak
to them.
Recovering her composure to
some extent, Mrs. Austin asked;
"William don't you know me?"
Austin looked her straight in thi
eves and said:
"I can't say that I do, though you
do look something like Mill Austin's
wife did the last time I saw her, but
that was y ears ago.
One of the little boys went up to
him and put his arms around his
neck inijtiired:
"Papa don't you know me':"
The poor man put the little fellow
from him andcarefiilly scrutinizing
his face answered: "You do look
something like Mill Austin's boy
did the last time I Haw lilm tint tl, it
was years ago."
The wife and children then re
traced their steps homeward and
with heavy hearts.
