Two Poor Little Red Riding Hoods.
Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.
    Madison, Wis., Jan. 14.-A horrible story of two children in the county being devoured by wolves reached this city today. On the 12th, about 20 miles northwest of this city, and about a mile from Dane Station, in a rough country, on the town-line between Vienna and Dane, two German children went to Steele school-house, distant only half-mile from home, by a shortcut through the woods. Not returning at the usual time, search was made, and the scarf of one of the children was found, and traces of blood, while the howling of wolves was heard not far away. Following up the bloody trail, both children were found dead,-one horribly mangled and the other nearly eaten up. A hunt will probably be made to exterminate the beasts.
