PROBABLY AN INDIAN.
Interesting Report on the Skeleton
Found in City Creek Canyon.

Readers OF the News may recall
that several months ago a human skei-
eton, almost entire, and sllll In fair
state OF preservation, was dug up by
the workmen who were eXcavatlng for
Prof. Paul's residence just beyond
Fourth street in City Creek canyon,
The opinion of those who then saw the
skeleton was that Il had belonged to
some white man. who had peen drowned
and washed down the stream In time OF
food. perhaps half century ago, The
skeleton was lying few feet below the
surface, not perfectly straight, with the
head 20 the northwest, as II the body
had been washed down the stream. NO
marks Of Whence were observable on the
bones. Mr.. A. Ramseyer OF THIS city
was requested by Prof. Paul to examine
the skeleton with view TO having II
mounted, as It had been presented TO
the l.. d. $. university, While making
this examination, Mr.. Ramseyer be-
came convinced that the skeleton was
that of an aged indian. 1t ~ decayed
too far to permit mounting, and has
probably been buried for a century or
more. The following extract from n
letter to Prof. Paul from Mr., Ramseyer
concerning the skeleton will be read
with interest.

The large audience that turned out
to see David Harum" at the salt Lake
thcater last night told an eloquent
story Of the hold the quaint tale has
upon local people OF course the play
had been seen here before; and with
W. II. Crane In the title role. Thus
the impression left was a pleasing one.
That that impression should have been
disturbed is not the fault Of Mr.. Crane,
The play, as everyone knows, Is a
dramatization OF WescOtt's novel and
reproduces its scenes and characters
with absolute fidelity TO rural life.
News readers are familiar with them,
They have laughed and wept over them
alternately either while perusing the
book or witnessing their reproduction
on the stage, and last night they quite
thoroughly enjoyed them anew though
they were keenly cognizant OF the fact
that Turner, as David, was no more
like Crane than a pear is like a peach.
Nevertheless he was a long way from
being bad and the Interpretation he
gives is worth seeing II only by way OF
contrast, II Is true, too, that his sup
port does not support him very much
except In one or two instances. stu
the characters represent fairly we'll the
types they deal with and are In COM
