FOUND REALLY
HUMAN BONES
DIGS UP SKELETON IN EXCAVATION
James 7. Haynes Finds a Skeleton
Near Where Other Bones Were
Found Recently.

Genuine human bones have been
unearthed by James T. Haynes while
digging for the porch of his new
house at 307 South Second street,
not over eight feet from where he
found skull and small fragments
of bones several weeks ago.
This time Mr.. Haynes was looking
for something so was able to save
all the bones without injury. He came
across the skull first, but 5ecarse
it was imbedded in hard eal;h did
not remove it at once. He wet the
ground surrounding the skeleton
and then cleared the softened earth
away with his hands. The skeleton
was partly on the side with the legs
drawn up in such manner that
the knees rested against the breast
bone. All the vertabrae were found
in place. A large irrigation ditch
has been flowing near the find for
the last seven years and the damp
ness with it's attendant active growth
of roots in the soil has caused the
bones to decay rapidly.
The bones were not over two feet
under the surface, imbedded in a
heavy moist soil. The roots of grass
and other vegetation along the ditch
have almost destroyed the smaller
parts, but the skull and thigh and
arm bones are fairly we'll preserved.
A striking popularity is noticed in
the development of the skulls found
by Mr.. Haynes and the one unearth-
ed by some workmen on the Mckee
ditch last summer. The left side
of the skull is greatly out of pro-
portion with the rest of the head,
being fully three inches wider from
the nose on the left side than on
the other.
In the right side of this last found
skull is a clean cue hole about an
inch in diameter. The edges are
slightly crushed and bent inward,
seeming to indicate that death was
| caused by blow on the head with
some pointed instrument or from
rifle bullet. The teeth are large,
strong and SPEEDILY preserved. All
of them were in the jaws when found
and not one showed the least sign
of decay.
The thigh bone found with the
skull measured twelve and 4 half
inches in length. The same bone in
an ordinary six foot human is
about is inches long. From this
comparison it may be inferred that
the man of whom this was the skele-
ton must have been under what we
call average height.
When compared the skull found
yesterday differs principally in size
4 from the one found some weeks ago.
| The latter is smaller. The lower jaw
is straighter and not so broad. The
/ teeth in the smaller skull are fewer
in number, some that were still in
formative condition being vislol.
sunken in the bone. The other parts
4 of the first skeleton are all smaltsr
and more delicately formed THAI in
the last one. An expert might lie
able to tell the age and sex tro:n
/ this difference, but so far no one
component to determine this has
viewed the bones.
Although diligent search VS.
carried on TO- an hour after the III
no further relics were discovered.

THE LEISURE PROBLEM.

In the course of his remarks at
the Y. NJ c. A. meeting Sunday
evening one of the speakers laid
great stress upon the leisure
problem. While this may be new
thought to many it is nevertheless
one upon which much can be given.
Where to spend the hours after the
days labors are ended and before
time for repose has arrived has
been a problem for many young
man in this and other places to solve.
The hours between six and twelve
in the evening has proven the pitfall
for the majority of those who have
become maynard, and to provide for
lust such exigencies is the mission
and work undertaken by the Y. M.
C. A., of which we have heard so
much the past few months. No
where to co. This cry has been
uttered many times in North Yakima
and the truth of the statement is
only too apparent.
An opportunity to change these
conditions in North Yakima and in
a measure make amends for the
past is at hand. 1t is up to the PEG

but a matter of business. An invest

that all will respond literally to the

the city a lasting monument of it:
appreciation of the character that
is the outgrowth of it's work.

CORONER'j JURY
NAMES CHAS. BAY
BlAMES HIM FOR DEATH OF KELLY
brakeman Positively Identified as
Man Who Kicked Poor Negro
From the Train

The inquest held Saturday morn
ing by Coroner Rosser to inquire into
the manner and cause of death of
James Kelly, negro, assumed a
tragic character when the testimony
of Frank Lane, an eye witness to
the tragedy, was being given.
County Attorney Krutz had asked
a number of questions tending 10
bring out the knowledge the witness
had of the affair. all of which we're
answered in positive, certain man
ner. The room was quite crowded
with officials, witnesses and the
curious. Suddenly Mr.. Krutz asked,
us the man who kicked Kelley of
the train in the room?"
Lane slowly and deliberately
looked over the room until hts eye
fell upon Chas. Bay, who is accused
of the brutal killing of the colored
man. Then he pointed his finger at
him and said, Eyes, sir; there's the
man sitting there
"Will you swear to that?" asked
one of the jurors.
Eyes, sir; l WILL" answered Lane
in the same positive tone.
The only visible sign the accusel
man gave when he heard this bit OF
evidence was a sneering laugh.
The result df the investigation
was the returning of the following
verdict: Eve, the jury, find that one
James Kelley came to his death on
the night of October II, 1906, by
being kicked from the special west
bound freight train by one Charles
Bay" The brakeman was at once
placed under arrest and taken to the
county jail. Frank Lane and Mat
Kane will be retained as witnesses
against him. The date of the pre-
lminary examination has not yet
been set, but will probably be some
time this week.
A jury was drawn for the inquest
which was held at the Flint-Shaw
morgue. The two witnesses, Frank
Lane and Mat Kane, were sworn
and gave their testimony.
Charles Bay, the rear brakeman of
the freight under which Kelley met
his death, was present, having been
summoned from Toppenish, where
he was with his train on the return
trip. When asked to tell what he
knew of the affair he denied any
knowledge of the matter whatever.
"Those fellows could not see
man in the dark with lantern plain
enough to swear to him." said Bay,
Il never saw either of them before
in my life that I know off,
Bay declared that he did not know
at Toppenish even of the presence on
ythe train of the negro and the white
man who was with him. He repeat
''edly declared he did not know of
the killing of a man by the train
until North Yakima was reached. He
said that he was riding in The cabose.

AN OPEN LETTER.
To Honorable Henry Wende:

To Honorable Henry Wende:
Dear Sir: The Prohibition Central
Committee, in view of the fact that
our party has as yet no candidate in
the field desires to know If it can
consistently support you. We re-
alize that you can enact no pro-
hibitive legislation, but we do know
that such regulatory laws as are en-
acted, can be enforced to the great
betterment of existing conditions if
men are elected to office who are
free to follow their official oath
precisely
Do YOU believe yourself capable of
enforcing the liquor laws, the gam
bling law and the Sunday closing
law, or do you admit in advance,
that it can't be DONE
If elected do you deem it your
duty to enforce these, as we'll as all
other laws without discrimination,
and will you do SO?
The fact that you offer yourself
as a public servant certainly makes
it permissible for the public to in
quire what kind of a servant you
will be.
We have not addressed a similar
letter to your opponent as his opin-
ions are indelibly written by his
public service.
We are not a numerous people,
but believe that many who love So

manslaughter, but If he had had
some previous quarrel then the
charge will probably be murder.

wool growers convention was called
to order at 1000 O'Clock in the Elks'
Theatre by President Solomon Luna
of the Fair Association, with six
hundred delegate es present. Intense
enthusiasm marked every move of
the convention, as it is evident that
the association to be formed will be-
come a great power in New Mexico's S
greatest industry. Governor Hager-
mans address was brief and to the
point He was introduced by Presi-
dent Luna, and explained briefly the
purpose for which the convention was
called, dwelling upon the Importance
of the organization by sheepmen for
the protection of their interests.
Dr. J. NJ Wilson, vice president of
the National Wool Growers Associa-
tion, is here, and with other promi-
nent western stockmen will address
the convention tomorrow (Wednes-

The crowds at the fair grounds this
