BODY OF UNKNOWN NAN
FOUND NEAR EVANSTON
Especial to The HeraId.)

Evanston, Wyo-, Dec. 1S.-AbOut , p.
m. today the body Of an unknown man
was found by section laborers five
miles west of Opal. lying a few feet
from the track. There was nothing
found about the body Of the dead man
that would lead to identity, but the
theory is advanced that he was muir
dered and taken there by unknown par
ties to cover up dastardly deed No
marks were found upon the body that
would indicate that the man had been
struck by train, and as no train had
passed there since the section men
came Fast this spot in the morning, it
is certain he was not killed in this way.
A hasty examination of the body by
the parties finding it indicates that the
man may have been dead several days.
The proper officers were notified and
they are working on the case. but thus
far no clue has been obtained.
