Sig. S. Marghieri, the well-knownra.
aeheologist, discoveredand explored
a Theoretically sealed cave, at an ele-
walton OF nearly 1000 feet, on the
eastern side ofthe Sierra Madre Noun
tains in Mexico, about two hundred
miles south of Deming, between Cora
htos and Casa Grande about two
years ago. The floor was nearly
smooth, the side rough and rugged,
and the vault covered with stalaci-
ties. In the rear end of the cavern
were found four desiceated human
bodies. The bodies We're in a sitting
posture, with the hands crossed on
the breast, and the knees approach
ing the chin, with the head inclined
forward. They carefully shroud-
ed in their burial garments, and
placed fleeing the rising sun. The
male and female were seated side by
side. The oldest child, a boy, was ut
the right of the father, and the Young
er child, a girl, at the left OF the
mother. In addition to the funeral
shrouds the little girl was enveloped
in the skin of an animal similar to
the method used in the island of Fu-
erte Ventura, the better to preserve
its tender frame.

Murder and s.ieIde.

A horrible shooting affair took place at
Minneapolis nt n lodging house kept by Mrs.
Harris. One evening a young man applied
for a room for himself and his wife, who. he
said, was to arrive on Q train. About mid
night pistol shots we're heard in their room.
After an alaTm a policeman put his shoulder
TO the do IT and burst into the room. On
the bed, as il asleep was a young man. On
the hoor, lying on her left side, with her left
arm under her head, was n woman. Arevolver
within a few inches of her right hand and
the trickling blood from q wound back OF her
right ear, told the story in an instant. She
was unconscious, bat her heavy breathing
told that she was still alive. Not 80 with her
companion. He was dead. A bullet wound
in the left temple told the tale. The
identity Of the actors in this horrible
tragedy was revealed by n young man
who appeared to AVE been n companion Of
the pair, and who said the man was James
Seaman, aganbler. and the woman Pearl VIII
son. who has untn n few weeks ago kept
a bagnio ut 439 Jackson street, st. Paul.
As 10 the cause OF the murder, il is APP
parent that Pearl shot Scanlan and that,
too, when he was asleep. There is every in
dication TINT his death was instantaneous.
With q pint bottle Of whisky half emptied
and several bottles OF beer, il would appear
that the two had been on u debauch, but
their d and appearance did not go TO
show that. Neither was there any occasion
for JEALOUSY. Without n doubt, the woman
l. insane, or at least was when she fired the
shots.

lstrayge Case.

AteleGram from Spokane Falls, Washington
Territory, says: There is a st range mystery
connected with the suicide of William O'Dell,
and the like termination Of his bosom friend
and partner, Chris Nelson. The latterfataIiy
shot himself in his room over the Courd'
Alene saloon two weeks ago. 0'Dell could
not give any reason for his partners rashness,
as he did not drink and possessed considera-
Bile money. NoW0 Dell hangs himself without
any apparent cause. Both are from
Seattle. At the inquest II developed that a
witness named Beck was interested with
found among O'Dells effects. The contract
was between ID. H.. Denny K Son of Seattle,
and Vim. 0'Dell, Chris. Nelson and Beck.
Ii was dated Mare. IA. 1883, and provided
for payment of -, 900 10 them for clearing
n number of lots in North Seattle for Denny's
contract. Beck said everything had been
completed in June and Nelson and 0'DeIl,
the two suicides, had come here while Nelson
remained at Seattle. Beck said that in
speaking Of Nelson, 0'Dell said he was very
foolish 10 commit suicide, for he had money
and there was plenty Of work TO be had here,
and he could hot understand it, for he never
knew Nelson to nave a revolver before. The
last time he saw 0tDell was Wednesday. 1t
was developed also from his testimony that
ODcll had done contracting in Minneapolis
and was well known among Senndinavians
there; that he had worked on the Cascade
divi sion of the Northern Pacific, that he Was
a regular visitor to variety theaters and
rather partial to the fair sex; also that he
had written TO Seattle for money which hy
expected to receive in "a few days.

both his eyes bleckened and his body badly
bruised. He continued his spree until Tues

nothing. He removed nothing but his coat
and hurriedly leaped from the footpath into
the water, which he struck on his side or
stomach. lie Immediately sank and was
seen no more until his body was picked up at
Deptford. No boat was provided for his as
sistance or rescue. and his companions dis
appeared as 500 as they discovered that
the jumper was beyond the reach Of help.
