ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL.
A Very Queer Story.

PORTLAND, June 24.-The burning OF
Lewis Keckley's house and his body, re-
ported yesterday, seems to be q life insur-
nee suicide. A correspondent visited the
town of Cornelius to-day and learned the
following facts relative to the alleged
crime: Keckley came from Ida Groves,
Ia, with a wife and baby and three or four
families of relatives, about three months
ago. He had a policy of $4,000 in the
New York Life Insurance Company, issued
about six months ago, and on the 30th of
May took out So, ZOO in the Mutual Tenn
perance Union, through an agent at Cor
nelius. The house was burned Friday
night about 10 O'Clock. Saturday evening
towards dark a bunch of human bones
was found in the ruins. Upon being taken
up, the skull and the bones of the arm fell
to pieces, and it was evident that an old
skeleton had been placed there. The house
was a light frame structure and could not,
in half an hour during which it burned,
have reduced the body to ashes. The
most suspicious feature is that the wife
slept at her fathers house, three miles dis
tant, on the night of the fire, the first
night she had been away from home since
she lived in Oregon. She had with her
that night the life policies and deeds to
the property. Before the Coroner's jury
to-day she swore that three weeks ago she
had dreamed of q man shooting her hus-
band and then burning the house over
him, and that on the day before the fire a
big burly, black-beareded Irish tramp
came to the house and was ordered
away by her husband; that the tramp
threatened to get even; that he answered
infinitely to the brigand of her dream;
hence she was afraid to sleep home that
night. The jury adjourned till Wednes-
day. 1t is reported that Keckley was
seen in Southern Oregon Sunday, but the
report lacks confirmation.

az Wells,

The Elko Independent of Monday says:
Captain Matt Caravan, one OF the Nevada
delegates to the Democratic National Con-
vention, passed On his way east by the train
last evening for the purpose Of securing at
Chicago quarters for the Delegation from
this State. Morris Smith OF the California
Delegation, who is on q similar errand, was
also q passenger. Buckley, the famous
politician manipulation Of San Francisco,
and James G. Fair Jr., were also passengers
by the train. We became aware for the
first time that Boss Buckley is stone blind
and the knowledge greatly strengthened
the impression previously conceived OF the
extraordinary force of the man. The fact
that Canavan was on board reached Wells
in advance of the train, and when 1t pulled
into the station be became the recipient of
quite an ovation. A large number OF cit
liens had gathered with a band OF music
which played several pieces, at the con-
clusion OF which Mr.. Csnavan addressed
the crowd briefly. but happily. recognize
ing their action as a compliment to the
party manifested through him. Taking q
cordial leave OF the captain, the latter step
ped on the train. and az 1t moved away
waved an adieu to the hearty cheer sent out
as O God-speed.

After a supposed IncendIary.

BY notice elsewhere ii will be seen that
there is power, welding coin, that is after
Joe Papa, who is strongly suspected OF
having set the Tatti & Co. building afire
last Sunday morning. Five hundred dol
lars are offered for his arrest and convio-
ton. II need be, perhaps, this sum will
be increased to meet the requirements OF
the case. II money can unearth the Grim
inal he will be unearthed. This is emf
nently right and proper. II ~incendisries
are allowed to escape, how long will ii be
before the insurance companies will quit
business in Eureka and turn their backs
upon the town? If the growing itch
TO burn for insurance money is not
subdued, not only those who are made
safe by the underwriters against loss, but
those who have no insurance are liable to
be burnt out Of house and home along
with the rest. 1t behooves al citizens to
be on the alert and regard il as q personal
duty to protect the town against incendi-
arism, OF which that act charged upon Joe
Papa is one OF the most deliberate and
desperate ever undertaken in Eureka.
The source of the reward referred to is
not within our province just now TO make
public through the paper. but that it is a
bona fide offer can be demonstrated to any
one who will call at this Office for the
proofs,
