Skeletons
UNDERNEAThED

Three skeletons were underneath
ed by convicts at the state prison
one day last week while they were
digging IA sewer trench. The skele
tons were well preserved and were
evidently those of Indians who had
been buried by their tribe many
years ago. They were found to-
gether, and in the grave were many
arrow heads and s. care points and
remnants OF bows and arrows, thus
indicating that they had been
warriors. A peculiar feature OF
the skeletons was the size OF the
bones and the extreme thickness
of the skulls. One of the skulls
was fully a half-inch in thickness
and the others were much thicker
than an ordinary skull. The
skeletons are being preserved and
will probably be sent to the smith
sonian Institute as relics OF the
fast-disappearing race of abort
gines.
