Two Die in the Mississippi.
Joseph J. Conenberg and William D. Johnson, two prominent young Burlington men, were drowned in the Mississippi. While rowing on the river several miles north of Burlington they attempted to change positions and capsized the boat. The testimony of those who saw the tragedy is that Johnson practically gave up his life in attempting to save Conenberg.
