A GRUDsOME FIND.

Human Doncs Found Under OfNccrs'
Club nj West Point.
New York. January GA special to the
Press from West Point says:
Bones have been uncarthcd right under
the officers club rooms. They were ali
human bones. In good condition, but no.
body knows when they were placed there
or how they got there. 1t may have been
half century ago but the probabilities
ere. Judging from tho stories told by old
residents that they are the bones OF SOL
diers killed in the Revolutionary war. II
is known that spies and tories hanged ON
the rlains we're hurled by the patriots
where the mess hall now stands What
disposition will be made Of them has not
vet been announced but 1t Ia likely they
will be buried In the cemetery.
Coroner Miller Of Highland Falls got an
inkling OF the find but as coroners are al
lowed In West Point only by permission
OF the authorities. he has small chance ot
holding an inquest. as II is clearly evident
that there WAS no fo,l play in connoc-
ton with the burial Of the bodies.
Colonel Ernest is now In Washington
and 1t is probable the matter will remain
as II now stands until he returns. In the
meantime the bones have boon placed
where no harm can come to them.

Rice also IL plentiful and means aud

pronounced adequate where needed.
The maharajah, in an Interview with the
