STRANGE Discovery Yesterday the
proprietor of the Washington Hotel, on
the West side of Swanson street between
South and Shipper streets. while digging
in his yard, for the purpose OF making some
repairs to the hydrant, struck upon lead
pipe about FIVE inches in diameter. The
pipe was found to lead into a vault under
the tavern, and had mouth piece or some
thing resembling one, upon that end
The pipe was traced for distance OF four
teen feet, where the end was found TO be
imbedded in the wall of vault, the exist
ence Of which had hitherto been unknown
to the proprietor of the house or the owner
Of the property.
The vault had evidently been constructed
originally under the bank west of the pre-
sent line OF Swanson street. Upon break
ing into it a dilapidated DESK a crucble and
fnger-ring were found; but the strangest
discovery Of all was a ring-bolt secured to
the wall and upon the ground around il
were number Of human bones. The ma
