NATIVES TELL STORY
OF MURDER OF JONES

MANILA. April 13.-The party recently
sent out by the government to investi-
gate the circumstances connected with
the murder by nongote tribesmen OF
DIR. William Jones, a noted anthropolo-

during his two years of stay among
the wild men of the interior. The speci-
mems will be sent at once to the insu-
tuition in Chicago.
Members of the party learned additional
details of the tragic death of DR.. Jones.
It appears that he had been warned that
trouble was in store for him and had
started, to leave the country where he
had been studying the natives at close
range.
He returned to the headwaters Of the
Cagayan river to secure boats in which
to carry his collsction down the river
and unwittingly crossed the dead line
that had been established by hostile Hong
otes.
He was met by party of warriors
who offered him dish of fish as to-
ken of defiance in accordance with tribal
custom. Not suspecting that he was ac-
cepting their challenge by so doing, he ate
the fish and was attacked immediately.
The warriors wounded him many times
with their spears, but he managed to
fight them off with his revolver until he
reached a boat. in which he escaped
DR.. Jones was so severely wounded that
he died five hours later and his body
was rescued from the river by friendly
IIongotes native servant also was al
tackled at the same time but escaped
uninjured, saving the scientists's re-
volver.

passengers who left this city Sunday
morning last for trip over the Mofat
road are marooned at Carona, at the
summit of the Continental Divide, with
nothing to eat but the limited amount OF
foodstuffs shipped in the express car.

ports, they are stalled in the snow sew
eral miles this side of the passenger

the main range yesterday and work had
to be suspended.
The derailed snow pillow is now buried
in the snow and it is thought that ii will
be several days before the blockade can
be lifted. In the meantime the pas
sengers and trainmen are eating what
they can get from the express car and
sleeping in the day coaches of the train.
1t is reported also that passengers who
left Steamboat Springs. the western ter
minus at present of the Moffat road, on
Wednesday last for Denver, are still or

WOMAN II WELL

When Lucullus Bandenberg, who lives
near Fort street, returned home Monday
evening, he found that Matilda Jenkins,
who lives next door. had taken the fifty
cents he had left tied in a red handker-
chief so he decided to throw her into the
we'll in the back yard.
Matilda Is of somewhat ponderous bulk,
and it occurred to him that it would be
necessary to take off the top of the well
to get her I'm. With an axe he knocked
off the top, leaving the well without COW
ering, and went in search of Matilda.
"Jes' come along quietly" he said. at
won't do no good ter holler. I'm goin' ter
learn you dat no oman can steal my
money"
But Matilda broke for cover and he
followed i'm hot pursuit. With a despair
ing screech she was dragged from closet
in her room, where she had tried 20 hide
her head in a red kimona, and was pulled
towards the we'll.
A ramshackle bit of building that does
service as coal house hid her and Lucullus
from the sight of three witnesses, just as
the we'll was reached.
There was one last scream, and the
three witness ran for the police.
Lord, Lordy," said one. "Lucullus has
done put Matilda in de well, and we has
ter use de water every day"
When the police arrived they found the
two standing quietly near the well. Just
as Matilda reached the brink, Lucullus re-
pented.
He said in police court Tuesday morning
the he has been misjudged. After saying
