FOUND
OF MISSING OUTLAW

The finding Friday of a human skel,
eton in a tunnel under one of the old.
est buildings in Rawlins cleared the
mystery OF the fate of 'Slapjack" Dave
Parker, VINO escaped from Sheriff Lem
mons of Carbon county at Rawlins in
1868. The legs of the skeleton are in
iron shackles and by these shackles
William Daley, who led a posse that
searched for Parker in 1868, identified
the bones as those Of the outlaw of
early territorial days. The tunnel in
which the skeleton was found was dis
covered while workmen were demolish,
ing the old building. Beside the skele.
ton lay a double-barreled squirrel rifle
with one barrel above the other and "A
fine globe sight. Oldtimers remember

American Ships Slow.

1t is but natural that Americans
should feel regret that we have been
taking such slight part in the advance
ment of ship building, and have allow
ed the English builders to turn out
such record breaking ships as the
Lusitania and the Mauretania proved
to be. 1t is also natural for a sickly
or to want Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters first of all, because
past experience has proven that it Is
not only safe and reliable but when
taken promptly at the first sign Of
distress, immediate relief is assured.
1t is therefore a wise plan to always
keep a bottle handy for some member
of the family is apt to need it when
least expected. 1t cures poor appel
lite, insomnia, headache, bloating, heart.
burn. vomiting, dyspepsia, Indigestion,
colds and malaria. Try a bottle, also
ask for our 1908 Almanac. 1t is free
and worth having.

LANDLORDS WIFE WILL
CELEBRATE BIRTHDAY

Scottish poet, Robert Burns, will &C,
cur on the 25th, and it is probable that
the Scots of the city will hold the usual
celebration of that event. Their cele

Mrs. Peter Smart from celebrating,
declines to give the number of the
anniversary, but it is certain that it
falls scores of years short of the mum

 The development of water on the range is getting to be one of the most important questions the stockmen have to deal with.

There is range for nearly double the number of stock now on the range if the water was developed. The Forest Service has agreed, in some cases, to assist in this work on the National Forests.
