THAT SKELETON. " esterday Coroner Yer
milya went to Pixies ranch on the American
river, about twenty miles above Sacramento,
to investigate in reference to the skeleton
there found, and of which mention was made
a few days since. When Mr. White, who
made the discovery, found they were human
bones he ceased the excavation until the ar
rival of the Coroner, when they proceeded to
exhume them, and found the skeleton to be
of an ordinary-sized man, and some of the
bones in a crumbled state from the length OF
time in the ground. From the fact that a
portion Of flint arrow was found with the
skeleton, and some pearl shells pierced in the
manner worn by Indians, the discovery is
probably only the resting place of one of the
original ssons of the golden west" who has
long since gone to the happy hunting-ground.
The Coroner brought the bones to the city
for further examination, after which they
will be properly buried.
