DOG BRINGS NOME
HUMAN Jaw BONE
Believed to BE That Of Young Woman
Not Long Dsad-PossIbly
Murdered.

RICHMOND, VA, April 13.-Ah
Forest Hill il stirred today as the re-
suit OF q find OF shepherd dog Ge-
longing TO James Blizzard. treasurer
Of q number OF coal, iron and coke
companies at Clifton Forge and Iron
Gate. Mr.. Billiards home Is on For
est Hill and convenient to the large
park by that name.
Yesterday evening his dog came in
with two large pieces Of q human jaw
bone. At first but little attention was
paid to the dog, a. it crouched on
the ground and enawed on the bones.
but finally a bright metal shining
from one Of the teeth attracted atten-
ton and a close examination showed
this to be either a silver or amalgam
filling of a human tooth. and q fur
Their examination showed the bones to
be two parts Of Q lower jawbone OF
a human being, q man or Q women.
Possibly Murder Mystery.
Has some foul murder been COM
mitted somewhere around and the
body buried near Forest NIL. in The
park or some place a. convenient IN
the large tract Of land lying around
and west of the park? The bones
were examined by . physician and the
belief is that they were those OF a
young woman.
No end of interest 10 being taken
In the gruesome find OF the shepherd
dog. and the result ID rife among the
residents Of that quiet and fashion
ate section. So far no steps have
been taken! to notify the coroner or
the police, but the residents OF For
est Hin are quietly WORKING out the
case in their own way. The bones
are what is known a. green-that Is.
having a degree Of softness and elias
ticity-that indicates that the person
from whose head they were torn has
not long been dead.
