Wed-They Celebrated In Advance.
The Woman Became DrunkandW Was
Arrested-Man Taken In Later.

When the Maria backed up TO the po-
lice court this morning Mike Flynn opened
the door and commanded the inmates to
step out lively. A white woman, frowsy-
haired, with ID frightrul black eye, obey
ing FlynD's orders, jumped briskly to tis
pavement, her skirts catching ON the steps of
the vehicle, revealing hosiery OF a barber
pole pattern.
"And how air yer, Ai!sther Flynn she
said to the officer, gaiiy carressing one of
his lapels.

coming upto Johanna and waving IL ragged
wad OF greenbacks in his hand.

Johanna kissed her hand TO the man. an
old pensiOner named George Salisbury, and
was trottcd through an underground pas

that her offense was not OF the kind To he
settled by fine.
She sat in the pen exchanging signs with
Salisbury, still clutching his roll and cNhibit-

fifty strong and would go broke on Jo-

up and heard Clerk Harper charge her rs
person OF evil life and fame.

MAY BE A PINKERTON.
Skeleton of n Man Found In the Mo.
nongahela River

Pittsburg, June 6.-Sand diggers in the
Monongahela River, at the foot of Ammon
street, Homestead, yesterday, fished the
skeleton of a man from the river bottom.
The legs were petrified.
The remains were thought to be those
of one of the Pinkertons who jumped into
the river during that~terrible fight with
the Homestead strikers in 1892 During
the fight, which lasted all day, several
Pinkcrtons tried to escape from the barge,
in which whole regiment of men were
oooped up, and which was being shattered
by shot and dynamite from the strikers
on the river bank. Three desperate Pinker-
tons, fearing horrible death, jumped
overheard in the hope that they might
swim across the river. They We're all shot
and sank to rise no more.
None of these bodies were recovered
until the find of yesterday, which there is
every reason to believe is the skeleton
of Pinkerton. On the skeleton there
was absolutely nothing to lead toward
Identification. The remains had evidently
lain embedded in the river several years
until disturbed by the sapd boat The
remains were brought to the morgue and
will be buried by the county.

$25 for stringing wire across Four
teenth street northeast last April.
Mr.. Samuel Bryan, president of the

wire from Thirteenth to Fourteenth street
to make connection with the new power
house of the Metropolitan Railroad.

had not erected any new wires and were
not violating the law. Judge Kimball held
differently and said the company had no
right to transfer the wires.

Fish From Canon City.

st. Louis Republic: Tho most won
derful collection OF fishes in the world is
that now on exhibition in the geological
section OF the national museum in tho
city OF Washington. They are all petrifi.
ed or fossilized and are just as they were
taken from their beds in the great cliffs
OF stone near Canon City Colo. Prior to
the discovery OF these queer relics OF the
early ages OF the earth's history no YER
tebrate or "backboned' creatures had
ever been found in geological formation
below that known to scientists as the up.
per silurian. These exceptional and
stony representatives OF a bygons race
OF the genus Pisces are from the lower
silurian period OF the geological struc-
ture OF the earth and are on that account
reckoned as being the most wonderful
thing in the fossil line ever discovered.
The giant animal remains found in
the famous Bad Lands" region OF Da-
kota and Nebraska, which consist OF
gigantic bones, teeth. horns, etc, OF
creatures Of mammoth proportion, which
died thousands or perhaps hundreds OF
thousands OF years ago. are all counted
among the wonders Of geology. In that
case, however, all fossils are found in
their proper geological formation. With
these stony Colorado fishes it is different.
They were as much out Of place in the
lower silurian formation az the masto-
don's remains would be in lower car
boniferous. II accepted geological data
10 moi. at fault, these stony remains OF
what were once tinny and scaled crca-
lures OF flesh and blood are thousands
o. years older than sny other remains OF
backboned animals ever discovered
That fish life existed at such an early
period in the earths history was never
dreamed OF by the geologists until this
discovery was accidentally made three
years ago.
1t is needless to add that in the finding
OF these fossil fish remains in such an
out of -the-way place has shaken the sci
e.ce out OF geology from center to circum-
ference. In this connection il may be
mentioned that the spot whore these
curious specimens were found is plainly
the dried-up beach Of what was once a
a vast sea, extending perhaps from the
Rocky to the Sierra Nevada mountains.
