Alleged Discovery of the Skeleton of tn

Spanish Adventures.
For years an interesting dispute has
been going on between Santa Barbara
and Santa Catalina, Cal, as to which
belonged the honor of furnishing the
last resting place for the bones of Juan
Cabrillo, the Spanish adventurer who
discovered the island and harbor of
Santa Catalina three hundred or SO
years ago.
A recent event, however, seems to
throw the burden of proof on Santa
Barbara. The matter has been kept
secret for some time, says the San Fran
cisco Examiner, but the facts are that
n grave was found on the island Of
Santa Catalina that was SO evidently
that of some person of Importance that
the discoverer notified the owners of
the island and the remains were taken
out almost complete. The body was
evidently buried with as much pomp
as circumstances would permit. The
head was laid to the north, and in it
was heap of shell beads, cut with
great labor from the shells found on
the beach, several beads of abalone
being among them. Near by was q

THE COMFORTS OF HOME.
Why Mr.. Plumbottle Doesn't Like
Summer Outings.
In Moment of Triumph He Tells Alex
Sweet About Some of the Things
That Are Usually Caught at
Fashionable Resorts.
Especial New York Letter.

The number of New Yorkers who
have visited health and pleasure resorts
this summer has been smaller than for
many years past, Notwithstanding that
the heat in giddy Gotham has been
simply frightful. The season has been
intensely hot, meteorologically speak
ing, but financially it has been quite
chilly all over the country. According
to a pat proverb: winter sets in when
poverty begins" and this has great
deal to do with the strongly developed
sentiment that this year there is mo
place like home" I will not elaborate
the points. The average reader knows
precisely what mean, and the subject
is a very painful one to most of us.
Among those who have discovered
that New York is a splendid summer
resort is the Plumbottle family, of Har-
lem, where I, also, reside The first
member of the family to arrive at this
sensible conclusion was old Pulsifer
Plumbottle himself. He, however, had
some difficulty in persuading Mrs. Pull
sifer, her three daughters, and that
gilded youth, Oscar Plumbottle, to
share his views on this subject. There
was clear majority against him, but
the rest of the family could not pass
the appropriation bill over his veto.
This is the first year since they were
married that the Plumbottle family has
skipped its regular outing. During one
year of unusual financial prosperity the
family, after having summered in the
White mountains, wintercd in Florida,
l,a
being carried off by yellow fever, and
their pet dog actually was carried off
by an alligator,

was customary to bury with the dead
as part of the ceremony. There was
also an AK of Spanish design or shape,
with the broad blade common 500
years ago; also knife. These had
been carefully wrapped in cloth which
had long since disappeared, as had also
the wooden handle; but the texture of
the cloth was still to be seen on the
AK. Near one Of the hands was a round
copper button, Similar to those used by
the Spanish gallants, and various
articles common to the Spanish of long
ago. From the care evidently taken
at the burial it would appear that the
