FOUND AFTER YEARS.
GhastIy Remains of a Man Who
Had Probably Starved To
Death in Mountains.

Stripped of flesh by wolves and coy.
and scattered over the hillside by
hungry animals seeking still another
morsel, the bones of an unknown man
have lain in the mountain undiscovered
for many years.
Only yesterday two young hunters
came upon the ghastly relics in the
mountains near Newett station, away
down in the farther corper OF ChaXee
county. Apparently it has been dozen
years since, like the wanderer of the
mighty Helvellyn," the pilgrim had
given up bope and perished alone in tho
storm.
Money they found beside the whiten-
ed bones, money enough to have kept
him from starvation for many weeks. if
he had been where gold or silver could
be exchanged for food La the face Of
nature what a mockery are the emblems
Of man's opulencs! There, scattered a.
mong the bones, lay the money for which
probably, he had risked and lost his life.
worthless to him as the stones upon
which he lay down to die. Near by lay
check book from the richest bank in
Denver. II the lone wanderer had writ
ten every check for million, and every
bank in the land stood ready to accept
them, how worthless to him would have
been the wealth.!
And there, too, lay = revolver; but
how powerless to defend him from the
forces of nature! How much avail
mans boasted might when the storm
comes upon him!
So he died and today even his name
is matter Of conjecture But few
relics were found which may throw light
upon his identity. There was key ring
bearing the name Of Gus Trooach, Oma-
no, Nsb. There was a money ord or pay
able to Mrs. P. Fosey of Chicago. The
bones Indicate that the wanderer was q
man of about so years, fully six feet tall
ane we'll formed.
There is belief among the psople Of
Newett that the remains were those of a
man named Gunthier who was slightly
known about the town in 1892, and who
disappeared and was never heard from
again All is conjecture. and will be un-
less the man whose name is on the key
ring, or the woman whose nams is on tho
check, can DO found. They may be able
to tell.

Will URGE Them Back.

peaceable settlement OF the Indian
troubles which have been reported from
the western part OF the state is what
Game Warden johnson, who started
west on the Rio Grande last night, will
seek to establish He was accompanied
by Fish Hatchery -Superindent Holland.
and together they will enlist the aid Of
the Indian police and friendly traders
to get the Indians back to their reserva-
ton.
Mr.. johnson does not expect any
friendly cooperation from the Indian
agent, but will do the best he can with
out him. The agent is the same as the
rest with whom the state has to deal !,
and their interests in an Indian raid do
not seem to lie in paths very far distant
from that OF the raiding Indians them
selves.
The telegram which the agent sent to
the governor in regard to the uprising is
said to have been couched in anything
but respectful tone. and indicated that
the governors telegram to the interior
department., betraying his negligence,
was anything but satisfactory to him.
The governor had not communicated di-
rsctly with'th agent in the erst place
and hence there was, it is said, no call
whatever for him to have sent any com.
munication whatever to the governor -

MAN BEHIND THE FURNACE.

There was only M false note in the
general harmony of things about the
household of Diggs. 1t was the furnace.
When they moved into their suburban
mer's beauty. Diggs stretched his arms,
and inhaled deep breaths, and slapped
his chest as he paced through it's roomy
space, and cursed the m-hea Hat
and it's prison walls. That was months
before the furnace walls started. By the
time he had paid coal bills of gradually
increasing size from September 20 me
month of the ground hog, with a pros
pect of four more still to come, Diggs
thought again.
But even the expense was small COM
praed to the strain on his nerves. He
would hum tuneful airs and call the chill
dren pet names as he ran blithely down
stairs.
"In just take a glance at the furnace,
dear, before breakfast" he would re-
mark, casually, and the would
pass, ard the breakfast would lose it's
tempting freshness and become a thing
passe and unlOvely, and from the base

wild-eyed creature would stagger up to

sent afar off, as the food of his wrath
burst forth in words unseemly for ten
der ears to hear.
"Robert, we must get a man to attend
to that furnace Mrs. Diggs would say
an%xiously, as she beheld the wreck of
nerves and moral composure before her.

A Wrong Righted.
BY Everard Ridgeley.

"And now, Cecilia, 1 want to make as
eurance doubly sure. You will not go to
the park with this friend of cousins
while l am absent?"
Yes, Horace, you may depend upon
me; / will not go to the park with him
O, with any one else. Does that satisfy
you, now?" And the last speaker look
ed up in the gentleman's face with a
smile whose exceeding sweetness had
lust that little touch of ~willfulness
which made it only the more attractive.
They were standing by the piano. the
young lady n gentleman OF whom l
write, and their hole attitude and ex-
preston plainly indicated that some in
innate relationship existed between
them: and appearances were not at
fault this time, for Cecilia Howard had
been the betrothed wife of Horace
Nichols for the last three months.
Cecilia Towards years lowered
among their early twenties. There was
much that was sweet and lovely, and of
good report in her character. But Ce-
ella Howard had a warm, quickly, re-
sponsive heart, that most beautiful thing
in woman. She was the only daughter
of her widowed mother, who only escap-
ed making an idol of her child, n had
been ove%r-indulgent with her; but Mrs;
Howard was a woman of good sense, and
she had spared no pains nor expense
which her limited means allowed in the
education of her child
Horace Nichols was the nephew of a
bank president, who had adopted him
into his own large family on the death OF
the boys parents, and generously at
fcrded him every advantage which he
bestowed IN his own half dozen boys.
Horace was naturally thoughtful and
studious. He had graduated at college,
and because his uncle's penetration con-
WINGED him that he had more force and
capacity than any of his w sons, he
had offered him a lucrative and RESPONSE
BILE position in the bank of which he was
president.

like appearance and personal accomplish
ments, that he is not a man of sound
moral principle, not a man of right heart
or life. And the one flower I have gath
cred to wear in my heart must not waste
like this one"
Cecilia Howard looked up and blushed
n little betwixt her smiles. as what wo-
man would not at such sweet f1attery:
then her thoughts touched on some
thing which troubled her.
What is it?" asked Horace Nichols
reading her face.
Oh, l wish you weren't going away!
A week seems a long time. Horace, and
/ shall be so lonely without you!"
The young man looked dow on her be-

sweet smiles, which it was evident from
it's mingled expression touched on many

She thanked him with a smile, half shy,
half fond, and altogether sweet.

looked at his watch.
He drew Cecilia to him., and his last

Three days had passed: the cold white
1annel of winter had rolled thick over
the earth. But on the fourth day the
low, sullen clouds were swept away by
the triumphant sunshine.
Everybody was out that day" So
said Helen, the cousin of Cecilia Howard,
a pretty. kindly, frivolous girl, as she
came in, just before lunch. Cecilia,
I've come for you." said the young lady,
bestowing her cape and muff on one-half
of the sofa and herself on the other, land
l shan't have any denial. You're to go
to the park with me this afternoon"
The day was certainly attractive, and
three days indoors had prepared Cecilia
to relish a walk. Then, like most young
ladies, she enjoyed intensely the pleas.
ure and excitement of skating. and would
have entered eagerly into her cousins
proposition. if it had not been for the
remembrance of her promise to her be-
trothed. And this m held her
back. :.
There is no use to urge me. Helen

tones. which prevented her cousin from
abandoning the matter. II cannot go

"What are they, C%ecilia?"
Cecilia hesitated a moment. and then,
thinking the best way was to meet her
cousin in her own straightforward fash

Il promised Horace that l wouldn't go

There goes the lunch bell. Say you'll

Large swelings cam on my boys neck under

down to the collar bone, and finally became a large
scrofula sore. My brother had been cured of scrofula
by Hoods Sarsaparilla, and it had also cured one OF
my other children of a bad case Of salt rheum. |
therefore began giving Hoods to this boy for scrofula,
and in a short time the sore commenced to heal from
