The plaster fragments seem to show impressions
OF nose and an ear. To the top OF one fragment
there are some lght-colorcd hairs attached. There
six pieces of plaster and all appedr TO be parts
OF a whole cast. The largest piece Is that which
bears the impress of the nose. The pieces were
found wrapped in the overas. and partly adhered
TO the cloth. The find was made by Lizzie Nun

TRIBESNEN'S LOSSES SERIOI s.
MORE ABOUT THE SHARP FIGHT WITH THE
MOMrNDS

MOMUNDS.
Bombay. Sept 19-The advices from the front
show that the various columns are advancing
against the Mahmoulds from Panjkora and
Shabkadr As yet they have met with no seri-
Gus opposition. but the difficulties Of transporta-
ton in a mountainous and almost painless coun-
try are immense. Another formidable obstacle
in the way of ~apid movement is the lack Of
water.
The brigade OF General Jeffreys has not Joined
in the advance Yesterday it left camp at
Anayat, with sixteen companies Of infantry and
four guns in order to reattack the enemy at the
village Of Damodota. The enemy made a des-
perate resistance but were driven out into the
hills. The British demolished their towers and
captured four hundred mule loads OF supplies.
AS soon the troops began to retire from the
village the enemy reappeared in force. The re-
tirement however, effected with great pre-
cision. the native troops behaving splendidly.
Two Sikhs were killed and six wounded
1t is now known that the enemy's loss during
the fight Thursday last between the Mo-
munds and the Second Brigade of General Sir
Bndon Blood, in the valley north Of Anayat was
very heavy. The tribes engaged did not press
the brigade during the retirement. but fresh
tribesmen appeared Captain Ryders company
Of Sikhs virtually owed their lives to Afridi
sergeant of the Guides Corps. who. when the
Sikhs had exhausted their ammunition and were
desperately cutting their way back through the
enemy. dashed up the hill under heavy fire
with a supply Of cartridges. He arrived Just in
the nick of time. the swordsmen Of the enemy
were already among the Skhs, who were abso-
lutely unable. after the heavy climb and the
hard fighting. 10 continue "A successful struggle.
Lieutenant Watson was thrice wounded while
gallantly leading handful Of Buffs who
routed a large body Of the enemy that was try
ing to storm the village in which General JEFF
freys. with guns had taken UP position after
missing his main body in the gloom Thurs
dav night
1t appears that the enemy lost $50 mon before
they captured the Saraga police post. They
burned alive two sikh cooks whom they capt

THEODORE A. FIGEL.
Held to Answer for the Murder of
Isaac Hoffman.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17.-Judge
Campbell this morning held Theodore
A. Figel formerly bookkeeper for the
firm of Hoffman, Rothchild & Co. of
this city, to answer to the charge Of
having murdered his employer, Isaac
Hoffman. in his office on Battery street,
on the evening of June LIST last, and
remanded him to the custody of the
Sheriff without bail.
Figel has already been held to an
swer to several charges of forgery and
embezzlement, and it is the theory Of
the prosecution that he murdered his
employer after the latter had informed
him that his thefts had been discov-
cred, and threatened him with expos
ure.
Although in receipt of salary of
5000 a month only, Figel owned a stable
Of thoroughbreds, and was known as
a plunger on the local tracks, and it
is alleged by the prosecution that he
maintained his sporting proclivities at
his employers expense. His defalca-
lions amount to about $4,000.
Judge Cook this evening issued a
writ of habeas corpus returnable on
Tuesday next at the instance of David
F'igel, father of Theodore A. Figel, re-
quiring Sheriff Whalen to show cause
why the young bookkeeper should not
be released from custody. The petit
ton for the writ is based upon the
claim that no evidence has been pro-
duced to show that Isaac Hoffman,
for the murder Of whom Figel was
to-day held to answer, was murdered
