                       TWO HUMAN HANDS
                  
               Have Been Found in the Streets of
                    Superior,Wis., Recently.
                    
           An Investigation Shows That the Graves in
                    the Cemetery Have Been
                     Systematically Robbed.
                     
           Superior, Wis., April 22. - Great excitement
         has been caused by the discovery that graves in
         Nemandji cemetery have been desecrated, and it
         is thought that the despoliation has extended
         over a period of years. Three weeks ago a woman's
         hand was found on one of the streets of Superior.
         A week later a man's hand was discovered not far
         from where the first hand was found. Other mem-
         bers of bodies were found near the city and an
         investigation showed that graves in the cemetery
         have been systematically robbed. Suspicion is
         cast upon physicians who are suspected of rob-
         bing the graves with the intention of dissect-
         ing the bodies.
