United States marshals from the Usage
country to-day brought to this city and
lodged in the United States jail q good
looking girl dressed In mems attire.
They had arrested her on a charge OF

has long baffled the officers who had
been long on the track OF q supposed
woman. She has, unaided, made away
with several score Of valuable animals.
She is Mary Hopkins. the daughter Of

Asstrangastory was recently relatedz
to a writer for the Orrville, Cal, Mer-
curry by a citizen whose home Is in the
mountains near Nimshew. About
month ago 1 had occasion to build
new barn ON my little place near Mn
shew, and to save expense on Its corr
struction l concluded to split out my
self all the shakes 7 would need. I had
known of d spleIdM sugar pine tree
ever since l had lived in that focalltysf
that stood Oh a hillside about two miles
from my home. 1t was a splendid
specimen, fully twelve feet in dialNe
Accompanied by my eldest son, / went
one morning about a month ago, and
in the course of a few hours felled the
forest giant. Then we proceeded to
split out from the trunk of the tree the
shakes that we wanted. One day my
son saw a squirrel playing in the
boughs, and, picking up his gun, fired.
He went to pick up the game which
had fallen at tine report. l paid no
attention to him until l heard an ex-
clamatiOn of horror and saw him stand
ing on the trunk gazing intently into
the tree top. Fastened securely in the
second limb fork of the tree, eighty
feet from the ground, was a human
skeleton. It was wedged in so securely
that even the fall of the tree had failed
to dislodge it, and 1t was intact. A few
remnants Of rotten clothing still hung
to it, and an old ~sOleless shoe half sup
ported the ieshless leg in the crotch OF
the tree. One bOny arm was twined
tightly about a limb, and the skull, still
held by the 'ligaments, rested on this
breast We dug q shallow grave and
buried the bones on the hillside. The
skeleton was that of a white man Of
average size, and from the condition OF
the teeth and skull must have been
past middle age. From the bleached
condition il must have been In the tree
top for at least twenty years. Now,
the question arises, and 1t is q question
that makes the whole story seem fm-
probable, is, how did the man ever ret
into the tree top? We made careful
measurements, and it was q little over
eighty feet from where 1t rested to the
ground. and in that space there was
notsa limb or even d knot to which q
man might cling in climbing the tree"
