Snow Shoe Thompson's Remarkable Feats.
II not the swiftest it was universally con-
ceded that, even up to the time of his DEATH
Thompson WAS the most expert snow shoe
runner in the Sierra Nevada mountains At
Silver Mountain, Alpine county, CAL, in
1870, when he was 43 years of age, he ran o
distance of 1000 feet in twenty-ons seconds,
There were many snow shoers at that place,
but In daring Thomson surpassed them all,
Near the town was q big mountain, where
the people of the place were wont to assemble
on bright days in winter, to the number of
200 or 800 The ordinary snow shoers would
go part way up the mountain to where there
was bench, and then glide down a beaten
path. This was too tame for Thompson. He
would make a circuit of over mile, and come
out on the top of the mountain. When he
appeared on the peak ne would give one of
his wild high Sierra whoops, poise his bal
ance pole, and dart down the face of the
mountain at lightning speed, leaping all the
terraces from top to bottom, and gliding far
out on the level before halting
Snow Shoe Thompson seldom performed
any feat for the mere name and fame of do
ing difficult and daring thing. Yet W. p
Merrill, postmaster at Woodford's, Alpine
county. writes me as follows in speaking of
some of Thompson's achievements: He at
one time went back to Genoa. on mountain,
on his snow shoes, and make jump of 1Se
feet without break" This seems almost in
credible, but Mr.. Merrill is a reliable man,
and for many years Thompson was his near
neighbor, and regular customer at his store.
Thompson doubtless made this fearful leap
at place where he would land in a great
drift of soft snow. spoke of this feat to
MIR. C. P. Gregory, formerly Thompson's
neighbor in the mountains, but at present
resident of Virginia City, Nev., and he am
swered that although he had never heard of
that particular leap, he did not doubt what
Mr.. Merrill said II know" said Mr.. Greg

clear jumps of fifty and sixty feet."-Oyer-

THE BONES OF THE DEAD.

Disturbing the Mortal Remnants De-
posted In Private Burying Grounds.
How shocked some Of the grand moguls of
old New York would be if they could come
back to the city and sit around awhile to see
how their bones are treated. For instance,
gross and plebeian men, in Jumpers and clay
pipes, have Just, with coarse and unfeeling
picks and shovels, poached upon the private
preserves of the mortal remnants of the
mighty Lispenards, of the ancient regime At
least this is the explanation that the police
have fixed upon as the proper one for forking
up, in a cellar excavation ON Lispenard
street, OF large assortment of osseous rem
nants of humanity. Eight skeletons have SO
far been dug out, all lying at one level, and
all with their heads piously to the west, that
the resurrected eyes might by no mischance
fail to see the Son of Man coming in glory
from the east The site was part of the Lis
penard farm, and it is supposed that the bones
were laid away in private burying ground
there SO long ago everybody's descendants had
forgotten all about it,
Good advice to anybody about to die is
"Don't be buried in private burying ground
1t is seclusive for a time, but after a while it
is apt to get common. Witness not only these
raked-up Lispenards, but other former
families that had themselves laid away in pri-
vate plots in New York and the suburbs For
one case, there is right on the line of a great
railroad, a few miles out of the city-so
much on the line that the road seems to draw
one side a little to avoid running over it
what ten years ago was apparently private
graveyard fallen into a state of innocuous
desuetude Then passengers gazed curiously
out of the windows as the train went by, and
wondered whose bones were trying to rest in
such rattle-ty-bang location.
Antiquarians knew that the bones were
those of the de-something- brothers, an old
French family that had once been the repre-
sentative of all that was high toned and
wealthy in the neighborhood That was ten
years ago. Now the gravestones have fallen
over, a patch of brush and weeds conceals the
spot where they used to stand, the passengers
never notice the place any more, and the an
tiquarians are forgetting that there ever was
such a family. In another ten years the
brush, weeds and gravestones will be cleared
away, the place built over by the railroads
side tracks and the antiquarians will be dead

Thinks He Is Sir Roger.

AN ENGL1SHMAN WHO EXPRESSES CONFIDENCE
IN THE NEW TICHBORNE CLAIMANT.
Mr.. Sidney Wills, an Englishman now resid-
ing In this city, spent his boyhood about the
ola town of Winchester, near which lies the
famous 11chbOrne estate. He has at intervals
revisited Winchester and kept up his acquaint-
ance with the people and the traditions of the
place. Mr.. Wills spent last evening with the
man now In this city who claims to be Sir
Roger Tichborne.
II came away" said Mr.. Wills to a STAR re-
porter, quite convinced that he must be Sir
Roger Tfchborne He has the family character

about the old people there, the old blacksmiths
