Skulls Are Of White Men.

Victoria, British Columbia (By Cable).
-Advices from Quatsino report that an
investigation of the cave discovered near
there by prospectors, in which IS skulls
were found, tends to show that the bones
are evidently those of white men-not
Indians. None of the skulls has the
high check bones peculiar to Indians Of
that section Of the coast Settlers in the
vicinity believe the skulls are probably
those OF a shipwrecked crew murdered
by the Indians in the early days.

General Lee was conspicuous as man
among men. He was born November
10, 1885, at Clermont, Fairfax county,
Va. He was the son of Commodore
Sydney Smith Lee, who was the third
son of Gen. Harry Lee, popularly known
as Light Horse Harry Lee" Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee was a nephew of the late
Gen. Robert f. Lee and followed the
fortunes of his distinguished uncle and
of his native State in the Civil War,
but accepted, as did the former, all the
results OF the war, and since Appomat-
tox has served Virginia and his country
in number OF important official ca
pacites. To him perhaps as much as
TO any other man may be credited that
firm reuniting OF the North and the
South, which existed even before the
war with Spain, disproying a favorite
theory abroad that the United States
of America was a conglomerated nation
held together by rope of sand"

Great, But Absent-Minded,

It is rot disgrace, even for a fam
ous man, to lose an umbrella, so the
New York Times tells with eviden,
delight Of celebrated lawyer who
darted into furnishing goods store
on recent rainy Friday, purchased
an umbrella, and carried it as far as
t..e door.
There he stopped to make note in
a memorandum book. He left the
umbrella leaning against the wall
while he wrote, and when he finished
the writing he started out without a
thought of the umbrella.
Within a minute he rushed into the
other door of the same shop. He
wanted to buy an umbrella
4 thought | had one with me when
left home" he said, il semi-apolo
getic way, but l guess l must have
forgotten to take it."
A second salesman sold him an
other umbrella. AS he started to
carry it from the shop, the first sales
man confronted him
you left your umbrella, SIR" the
clerk said, as he held up the original
purchase.
"Bless me, SO l did" cried the law.
yer, "and l suppose l was going off
with some other man's!"
He pushed the second purchase
into the hands of the surprised clerk,
seized the first one, and dashed into
the storm again with his UMBRELLA
under his arm.

HOW TO LOCATE SPRINGS.
Indians and Front;ersmen Learn
Much From si5ns and Ob-
SeTroiions


There IS undoubtedly practical
art of discovering springs Indians
or frontiersmen can find water In the
desert where a 'lenderfoot" cannot
Mexicans and experienced prospec-
tors can similarly find ore. These
arts consist mainly in the recognition
of superficial signs Which escape the
ordinary observer.
1t is not necessary that the opera
tor should consciously note these
signs separately and reason upon
them. No doubt he frequently does
so, though he may not give away the
secret of his method to others. But
in many instances he recognizes by
association and memory the presence
Of a group of Indications, great or
small. which he has repeatedly found
to attend springs or ore deposits.
This skill. dde 10 habit, is often

The estimates for next years eX-

General Cortelyou is working to wipe

shop has trimmed its estimates a mill

At the present rate the deficit for
