Yesterday as the Courier report
 CT was passing along the foot path
 between Prescott and Whipple, ht
 noticed on top of the divide tent
 wagon, two horses and couple
 of dogs. While the reporter hesi.
 tated about going over to the tent
 woman came out, and then, as
 usual, the reporters mind was
 made up. and he went over, intro
 duced himself, and was soon on a
 reportorial conversation with a
 woman who could pass for gyp-
 sy with no trouble at all. From
 her the reporter gathered that she
 was originally from Germany, but
 was of French descent; her name
 is Mrs. Francis that she had trav-
 eled all oyer the world; speaks
 seven languages fuently; possesses
 mesmeric power over man, beast
 and reptiles, and is in touch with supernatural powers or beings who
 at times guide her by verbal IT, stuctions. She has just returned
 from the caves of the Cliff Dwell
 CTS, near Camp Verde, where she
 and her husband collected valua- ble curios. While in the furthest back of one of these caves, some- thing told her to knock a hole through the rear wall of the cave. This her husband did, and she crawled through alone into large chamber, and from that into an other one, and on and on until she had explored great caves several acres in extent
 As she neared a dark corner, in her explorations, the deadly whirr Of rattlesnake greeted her ear. She promptly brought her mesmeric power to bear on the snake, charming the reptile. pick ed 1t up, brought it out, and now has it at her tent, alive. The rep tile is four and one half feet long, and she says 1t is seven months old. Having retraced her steps and brought the snake out, secured it. something told her to dig down 20 feet at certain spot in one of tEe large caves she had discovered. She directed her husband to dig at the place. At depth of 20 feet. large slabs of stone were encoun- tered ; there were three of them. When these slabs were removed, three cemented vaults were dis closed. These vaults contained three human mumified skeletons. Two of the skeletons are T feet long and one S1 feet long. She brought with her the head and the neck of the largest skeleton. The head is very large; the jaw bone will fit on the outside of the jaw of q living man with large head the teeth are massive and over an inch in length; the fore head is low; ears and mouth very large; top of the head runs up to peak. One of the giants had two flint arrow.heads buried in his skull. The teeth of the head brought away, contained pieces of dried flesh, which physicians pro nounce to be that of a human be- ing, showing that the giants were cannibals. Mir. and Mrs. Francis brought away couple of ordinary and a large collection of prehistoric curios, including many utensils and knives made of bone. They refuse to disclose the locality lE the entrance to the big caves. and say they intend further explor- 'tion of them m-Courier.
