Solve a Bandit Mystery.

The finding of a human skeleton
in tunnel under one of the oldest
buildings in Rawlins has cleared the
mystery of the fate of "Slapiackn
Dave Parker, who escaped from
Sheriff Lemmons of Carbon county
at Rawlins in 1868. The legs of
the skeleton were in shackles, and
by those shackles William Daley,
who led the posse that searched for
Parker in 1868, identified the bones
as those of the outlaw of early terri
torial days. The tunnel in which
the skeleton was found was dis
covered while workmen were de-
molishing the old building. Beside
the skeleton lay a double. barreled
rifle, with one barrel above the other,
and globe sight. Old-timers re-
member the gun as the property of
Parker.
Parker was one Of the most no.
torious bad men of the early days Of
the territory of Wyoming. AT the
time of his escape from Sheriff Lem
mons he was under arrest on a
charge of numbering two men on the
Platte river. He was confined in
the building beneath which his skel-
eton was found, while awaiting the
arrival of tram on which ne was
to be taken to Cheyenne. Before
the train came he mysterlously dis
appeared and posses searched the
surrounding country for days with.
ont finding any trace of him.

cost much to have the work done,
and it would look more citified.
Then, it would be much easier to
direct a stranger to any persons
house that he might be seeking. It
would also enable our citizens to
famiIiarize themselves with the
names of the streets. 1t is safe to
say that not one citizen in hundred
can locate a half dozen streets IN
town. The city isn't very flush
with funds right now, but the coun-
ell might consider the question dur
ing the coming fiscal year.

proof of his homestead; bill with
this object in view haying been
favorably reported from the com

the senate was introduced by Sena.

the house by Congressman French.
The present law allowing second
homestead entries was enacted April

relinquished without consideration,
or abandoned prior to that date
The Legislation under consideration
will be boon to many honest set-

Hon. George N. lift, former edit

was appointed U. S. Consul at
Chatham, Canada, on the recon-
mendation of Senator Hepburn, and
transferred to Annaburg, Germany,
is making a splendid record in the
consular service. He was recently
specially commended by an official
order from the Secretary of State
for his efficiency and alertness in
representing the interests of our
country abroad, especial mention
being made of his report to the
State Department relative to indus
trial and living conditions in the
