BODY OF THOMAS
DAUCHERTY FOUND
Disappeared From His
Home Last October.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

GILROY, Sept. 14.-The body of Thomas
L. Daugherty, who mysteriously Sdisap-
peared from Gilroy last October, was
found this morning by James Mossi and
George Keeler of this city. Mossi and
Keeler we're out hunting for deer on the
Wallace ranch, about ten miles west OF
Gilroy, in the redwoods.
The spot where the body was found is
on a hillside, denSely wooded and coVeref-
with underbrush. The men thought there
were prospects of soaring up deer on
this hillside, when they came across the
body of man lying on his back, with MS
coat off and used as a pillow. a large
Colts revolver was hanging in limb
within reach and over the body, pointing
downward. By the head lay cofkeu
whisky bottle. A white felt hat lay near
by. The head was severed from the poQy
and was devoid Of flesh. The rest OF the
body seemed intact, though the men dld
not stop to examine 1t closely. one OF the
boots seemed torn, as II by wild animals;
The clothes were OF a graylsh coIor anu
badly rotted.
The men came to town and in company
with Constable Jack White ana an under-
. taker left again for the scene to bring
the body to town.
There is no doubt that the remains are
those of Daugherty, for both men were
we'll acquainted with him and the cloth
ing tallies exactly with that worn by
Daugherty when he disappeared year
ago.
Daugherty was a former City Marshal
and Constable of Gilroy. He was more
than 60 years of age, and in state
. of temporary alteration wandered from
his home. When last seen he was crossing
the field opposite his home going toward
the hills where his body was found. Al
though a diigent search was made at the
time by his friends not a trace OF the
man could be found
Late tonight Mrs. Daugherty identified
the pistol and scabbard found with the
body as those of her husband. 1t is
thought, however. that he took strych-
nine. as half a bottle of the poison was
found in his clothes There was some
whisky in the bottle by his side and
white sediment in the bottom gives fur
ther proof that he died from the poison.
The body was brought TO town by Con-
stable White, Undertaken Dobbs and
Mossi' and Keller. who found the remains.
An inquest will be held by Coroner Kell
Friday at l o'clock.

Given Enthusiastic Well

Special Dispatch to The Call,

DENVER, Sept. 1.-THE Colorado vol
unteers were welcomed home on their re-
turn to the States capital to-day with
demonstration that atoned for the lack of
enthusiasm manifested when the regi-
ment departed from this city on May II,

Bells, whistles. guns, cannon and horns
began sounding a noisy welcome when the
soldiers free train reached the Union

tives the volunteers fell in line and were
escorted by a procession to the Capitol

pie waving flags and shouting cheers. All

holly and their pathway was strewn with
flowers by hundreds of girls. Public and
private buildings were handsomely deco
rated On the Capitol grands were, as
sembled thousands of school children,
who sang America" in chorus. An ad-
dress of welcome was delivered by Gov

STRANGE UPHEAVAL OF
LAKE CHELAN WATERS
Theory Advanced That a Volcano
Caused the Rushing Forth of a
Great Tidal Wave

SPOKANE, Wash, Sept 14.-Word has
reached here of a recent peculiar occur
renee at Lake Chelan, the largest lake in
Washington, situated about 200 miles
west of here, in the heart of mountain
range. Last Sunday persons living along
the lake shore saw an <upheaval of the
waters near the lake center Huge
waves, some of them ten feet high.
started from this point and rolled toward
the shore. At one point. where a small
passenger steamer was mOored, the boat
was torn loose by the waves and carried
ashore. When the waves receded it was
carried back, overturned and swamped.
No person was aboard at the time
The disturbance continued several
hours. thunder and lightning storm
was taking place at the time, but there
vas little wind blowing. The only theory
given is that the upheaval was of vol
canic origin. In the same vicinity at about
the same time, a large creek, one of the
feeders of the lake, went dry for three
hours, indicating that the disturbance eX-
tended into the mountains.
Indians living in the vicinity of the lake
say that similar occurrences have taken
place ir the memory of the tribe. For
that reason few of the red men can be
induced to venture out on the lake, even
in the most pleasant weather.
