FOUND IN
A BARREL.

Scranton, Pa, May 2S.-Whilo engaged
in removing pnimal fats and other mater
ials used in soaps and fertilizer, workmen
at the Hewitt Deslcating Works. near
here, made horrifying discovery about
noon today when the Head and badly mu.
tilated body of a woman was located in
one Of the barrels
According to the usual custom, the bar
rel con aiming swat refuse Is placed close
to the vat and the pieces oosened on top
frat when the entire mass is lator tossed
into the streaming space to be dissolved
by the steam and acids.
The barrel in question had nothing
about it to distinguish 1t from dozens OF
others brought In BY the drivers of col
lec'ing wagons. When 1t was taken
over near the edge OF the vat the first
thing to meet the gaze of tho Workmen
was cow 8 head. This was over quan
tity of straw. Whenever any substance
like straw or wood is found, the same Is
removed before consigning the load into
the liquid.
This the workmen proceeded to do,
They found the straw to be wet and IN
some places to be saturated with blood.
With the nonchalance of one whose
daily routine accustoms him to SUCH
work he went GU pulling out the straw.
He reached down and found t1ner SUB
stance than straw. He pulled at it and
as 1t camo to the surface he saw that 1t
was human hair. It, however, would not
yield readily to his efforts to drag 1t OUT,
and carefully setting aside the portion OF
straw yet remaining lfe peered into the
barrel. He was rendered almost speech
less with surprise. There was the up
turned face of human being.

Altoona, May 2S.--Rev. Father
Zwickert, rector of St Mary s Cath.
olic Church, Of this city, was aw ak
ened this morning by the persistent
mewing Of his cat. Getting out Of bed
to investiga he was astonishcd
to hear footsteps retreating down
therectory stairs. He followed and
found that burglars had cut panel
out Of the rear door and gained an
entrance, probably with the idea Of
robbing the parish safe, which con-
tanned large sum of money. The
cat gave the alarm while they were
at work OH the safe door, which
was not broken.
